Tom Woodford was astonished at the revelation of his wife as o wom- an with a mission. It amazed him, too, to realize the ‘‘busybody” could be acting from the same motive as the savior.- It touched him most of all to see in Beth a lonelinesss which not even he could dissipate, but which she was willing to suffer for the sake of what she considered lier mission— the loneliness of the despised and misunderstood missionary. “Why, Beth, you have made me see that you have a pretty deep basls for your way of looking and reacting on things,” he said with Sincere sympathy. “I see now that whole religlons, philosophics, social and econ- omic systems, like socialism, are at bottom what those who opposc 1t would call ‘butting in.’ But there is an equally deep-down principle or in- stinct in man which insists on being let alone. And it is that feeling that will always fight the butting in, no matter how well intentioned the butter in may be. “I suppose deep down there must be something right and common sen- sible about this ‘let-me-settle-my-own -job’ attitude or it would have gotten a black eve long before this. And, when you como down to it, every man and woman can or should settle the most private affairs of his life or hers. I don’t believe in the state bringing up children instead of letting the mother do the job. And the same applies to letting cach of us attend to our own children of life—our troubles. The one of whom the offspring was born is best fitted to take care of it.” “No such thing, in nine cases out of ten!” exclaimed Beth. “Nine out of ten mothers, especially the young ones, are infinitely moro ignorant about the care of children than the nurses they hire. So with people. ne people out of ten know themselves loss than they know about their favorite so- clety or matinee idols. And they show it in the way they bungle at solving their own problems.” “And it's been so since the beginning of time,” Tom retorted. “But vou haven’t noticed nature switching from the idea of the mother suckling and rearing its young, have you? If that idea were inferior at bottom, all the breeds that made that mistake habitually would have been killed out by the others. And that goes for interfering with people personal and pri- vate problems. If that had been the superior solution, the old Greelk, Eurl- pides, would not have written “The gods hate busybodies.” “But suppose you see an ignoramous going to devil with his life sim- ply because he does not know better?””” Beth asked. “well, T still think it would be better to let him go to the devil in his own way,” Tom rejoined. “Because there is a chance that he might try to resist his down hill slide and win his salvation. Whereas, if you insisted on saving him yowd have to go on living the rest of his life for him. “But the main objection to your butting into people’s private affairs is that you always add to_their problems instead of helping them,” Tom con- tinued. “And that is not even due to stupidity on your part. It simply comes down to this—a man who is trying to swim ashore will make better pro- gress if he 1s let alone than if some one clse comes behind and tries to push him. “It makes all the difference whether the swimmer calls for help or not. If he does, he gives himself up to the movements of the rescuer. If he insists on swimming by himself, interference, no matter how well meant, only cramps his movements. And that applies to people trying to swim in their own sea of troubles. The Temples were swimming through their troubles with their own stroke.

But it isn’t. On the contrary, the speaker an old lady.

Some day I'm going to tell ths warm-hearted girl how much she gave in thus opening her heart and home to her visitor. Youth is so rich in life and spirits that it scarcely realizes how much it gives—or withholds. They Like to Warm Their Hands. Youth is warmth and light and life. Older people love to warm their hands ~ at the blaze. They cannot get the warmth into their blood as it used to be, but at least they can feel its glow and that is something. Another old lady in my own house- hold spoke of a young girl who som times calls me up on the telephone “I Jove to answer when she calls,” she said, “we have the loveliest talks. She isn’t a bit like the ones who just ask how I feel because they know they" ought to.” Children’s delight in being treated like their elders is amusing. VC=-4 Household Notes.
