It is a most remarkable thing for two persons, man and wife, two then, or a pair of women, to stick by each other for fifty fears. Death ‘or divorce, or the general deviltry to be found in most any two people Usually interferes, so that when Mr. and Mrs. Taylor tell the why of it their expert testimony ts of importance to everybody who bas to live with Bnybody else. The Taylors say: O “Don't both lose your tempers at the same time. Most married people will endorse this as sound policy that usually | is peace. Still, there are wives who get hotter and hotter as the| id persists in controlling his temper, and there are occasions @ fight is the only thing that can clear the atmosphere entir ere, such instances are rare and the Taylor formula holds good. “Study each other's likes and dislikes,” say the Taylors. ‘This is policy that is imperious.

To man with a stomach it sounds like a conclusion reached after qmany a fine fight. But Mr, Taylor doesn't tell how he came to that con Clusion. Some men are born philosophers, some learn philosophy, and Some have philosophy thrust upon them. Anyhow, Mr. Taylor has pre “sented the real thing, and we admit his whole platform—Don’t fight her ; study her; “learn to eat it, anyhow.” Any philosophy whieh the heart, the mind and the stomach simultaneously is a corker r, 4t must be a high class stambling block to the divorce evil + ‘The Taylors of Des Moines wil) please accept our heartiest congratu.
