One is by muscu- lar and the other by mental force. Few wives can utilize the first; therefore the majority of women must think out the solution of the problem What shall be done with a husband?” for themselves, Each of ne- cessity is governed by the characteris- tics of the individual with whom she has to deal. Husbands are divided into six classes jealous, indolent, ultra-attractive, do- mestic, liberty-loving, fickle. I give the jealous husband first place, because jealousy is characteristic of all men, and nothing is more unpleasant. In the abstract, it makes no differ- ence whether the woman is pretty or homely. If a man has an idea that she has a better opinion of another than himself in any way, he is jealous —unless he is absolutely the woman. Love and j never separated. Sometime élever enough to conceal th it is always present. There is no greater error of judgment than that of humoring a jealous hus- band’s whims. It is like plying whip to a runaway horse. A wife hould go on with her life as if jealousy indifferent to the man 1d not exist. In marrying, she agreed to make herself neither slave nor re- | she should convince her husband she cares for him more than all else, but by that she is not barred from liking men in general, if her disposition is gregarious in that particular direction. She is not called upon to submit to a continuous perfi nce of jealousy she can cure, she should plainly say to her marital partner she will no | longér endure.

Rich stores of knowledge and wis- dom were given to those who would use the same unselfishly for the benetit of humanity. Here the gods touched hands with me who living for the soul of things made earth a heaven being con- scious of thefr unity with the divine. F alas! There came a time when most ‘of these same men began to use the powers thus gained for purely self- ish purposes.

Then the great teacher will appear again in human guise among her own to rear .upon the ruins of the old a new and grander temple dedicated to all that lives.” Two years ago, at the end of the cru- sade around the world, the cornerstone of the School for thé Revival of Lost and penates are embossed with the em- | erald of jealousy. | woman should question herself as | to whether the jealousy shown has cause. If it has, and she believes her- self thoughtlessly wrong, she should not apologize, but sin no more. If un- reasonable, let her tell her husband frankly that she intends to talk with men whom she thinks interesting and to smile at them pleasantly if it oc- s to her to do so. This course of action will convince any man of sense that he has lacked wisdom. Hell does know a fury like a woman scorned—a jealous husband. The indolent husband is often made, not born. It is the wife who makes him so, because it is a pleasure to her to cater to his comfort. She begins | married life by waiting on him. After experiencing delights of this sort—be- ing spoiled, some people term it—is it surprising that he gradually and un- iously grows into the habit of ex- ing his wife to wait upon him more and more? He resents the imputation that he is lazy, and asks his wife tndignantly why people should s iticize him. The up- shot of it all is, that he is waitéd on | more than ever.

Katherine A. Tingley with appropriate dedicatory exercises. Since that event lodges from all parts of the globe have contributed stones to be placed in the foundation of this school. The stones are uniform in size and triangular in shape, made of granité or some other hard sub- stance, which will be properly placed dur- ing congress week, and for the first time in 2000 vears, since the teaching of the mysteries in the temples of* ancient Greece through the drama and muste, is there to be revived a school of occujtism, presided over by a practical occultist, a teacher who will instruct those found worthy through having made brotherhood a living power in thelr lives, thus giving truth, light and lberation to discouraged humanity. ) The 1sis League of Music and Drama s bear the burden she has created.

There is a variety of husband who is indolent without cultivation—the sort willing to be supported by wives.

She should not mince matters, but | turn him out. The human mind is too | shallow for the fullness of contempt | such men deserve. Sometimes men are unconsciously lazy through unrealized selfishnes: The way to cure that sort of a hus band is to be selfish with him. He must | learn that every man should be for himself after he has considered (ho; convenience of his wife. The confirmed | bachelor is the worst type of the un- consciously selfish man. When he mar- | ries, his wife's first duty is to make it clear to him that there is something else in the world besides his own com- fort. The ultra-attractive husband is a stumbling block.

If his wife is at all bright, she will keep his admiration and attention b making herself attractive in the ways he likes a woman to attract. You may eall this policy or deceit if you are a man, but if you are a woman you will know better. A husband must be dealt with according to his kind. He is often managed just as people keep on good terms with society—by white lies. If the attractive husband’'s wife real- 1y knows what to do with him she will | never permit him to think her jealous. She will seem to rejoice in the admir- ation other women show for him, and make merry over their desire to flirt, If she does this he will lack the zest of forbidden fruit when his | wife is absent amd some other woman is willing to be made love to.

If the husband | develops a fondness for the society of | any woman above others, and savs the | friendship is purely Platonic, the wife had best consult her lawyer, quietly | eliminate things Platonic from her sphere, or make up her mind to take second place.

EY GERTRUDE ATHERTON In keeping watch and ward over her husbard a woman should never ignore the fact that it is the nature of all men to like a pretty woman. They are at tracted to them just as the bees f straight to the flower. . . If the wife of the domestic husband is not careful she will find herself bur- st dreadful of evils— a bore. Too many persons fail to note the difference between domesticity the rut. The domestic husband delightful creature, if he is anointed with the oil of society and garnished with comraderie. No man in his heart loves the drudge. If he loves a woman he will not know- ingly permit her to drudge. If he lets her drudge the best thing his wife can | | do is to rally her wits and enjoy her- | self without regard to his lordship. The domestic husband requires only management. This consists of instill- ing the belief that every person must | pay his debt to society, even though it | be onerous, as any debt may. His wife should make him understand as well | that the keenest comfort is wrought by | contrast. To stay at home all the time, this being granted, surely shows lack of wisdom.

This league hopes to raise through music and the drama the standard of morality of the world, from the depths into which these arts have degenerated during past ages, owing to mankind's false concep- tions and misinterpretations. Wagner has been made a deep study by all of the students of the Isis League, and it ha been found that this great master a profound mystic and teacher of occult- ism, and in no other light can he be un- derstood. At San Diego under the ausp! Lod ill be presented the " written by Aes- chylus, also musical selections from Wag- ner's cperas disclosing their concealed meaning. As a. whole the various features con- nected with the movement for Universal Brotherhood are bound to produce a marked effect upon the character of the race, for throughout all the teachings a dominant purpose is kept before the mind, CrOXOEOKORO# O Effect of Wealth According to Mrs. E are discussing an impor- tant question,” said a matron of charm and distinction, drawing aside her train to make way for the passage of a man who came up to talk to her after a din- ner. “Nowadays, when you men linger so long in the smoking-room, we find time for large themes in our post- prandial chat. The question has arisen among the women here to-night—who, as you see, are mostly mothers of the younger set in society—whether the growth of all this wealth and luxury is not killing the old-time sentiment of love.” “In other words,” was the answer, “whether your girls and my boys do not hesitate a long time before letting the tender passion invade them, when the desired object is not financially pre- pared to aid in advancing the worldly success of the couple. All I can say is that in view of what is expected of a fashionable married pair in these days, 1 hope-they do. “I can’t imagine a more deplorable condition for a poor young husband than to see his wife straining to keep up with her ‘'set.” I had rather my son would never marry than have him handicapped by a dissatisfied, fretful woman who might be lively and good- humored and agreeable if she had only AEe will best be accomplished by diplomacy rather than main strength. that is pleasant when energy reigns and fatigue flees is under opposite conditions.

That these youngsters see the girls of their acjuaintance trained up to the habits of Princesses—that is, Princesses of a fairy tale, for the actual ones lead very active, busy, simple lives by comparison with some of our ‘lilies of the field’ in America. And how, in heaven'’s name, is the young fellow who cannot hope to earn more than a few meager thousands a year in the next ten years going to bring himself to the point of assuming to support one of these expensive treasures? “If they could begin life as we began it twenty-five years ago,” mused the “satisfied with rooms, not a whole house, content to be entertained with- out entertaining in return on the same scale with people of fifty times their in- come; if it were not needed to have a country house as well as one in town, and horses and a string of extravagant, impudent servant to - dine out five nights in the week and be seen at all the operas and balls!
