Any man who loves his wife does not want to be a mule-headéd boss, He wants to take hie wife by the hand and walk side by side through life, Thenl this famfty is called a doubleheader What ts home without a husband? On the otBer hand, what is a home without a wifef We_all know it ts not complete when elther is gone; thea, why should efther one be superior to the other?

When men learn to govern themselves and their appetites, and live the clean, moral life thefr Creator intended, will be time to talk about having authority over others endowed with brains and buman intelligence.
