‘ ; ‘THE bOVERS’ CORNER. Balm Paenenaes S SES ' & Cane-of' Inexcusable Tardiness. Dear Mra. Ayer: Last Gunday ewening I promised to ‘eal gor = young indy (ith whom I have been going for some time) at 7 ‘e'clock. I aid not reach her home until 7.9, and found that she had gone to ehurch without me. I am very much burt about it and fee! that she can not eare very much for mo else she would awe waited for me. I have about de- cided not to call upon her any more. Do you think I am over hasty in giv- ing her up? I think a great deal of her, ‘But do not want to be made a guy of. PERPLEXED, In the business of love-«making as well @e in all other business it is necessary for a man to be punctual. If your en- agement said 7 o'clock you were guilty of great social rudeness in arriving as late as 7.30. The young lndy’a depar- ture for church without waiting longer for you was perfectly excusable. In- mead of deciding not to call upon her any more you would better find out whether sho cares for visits from a gen- @leman who fails to keep his enguge- ments. You owe the lady an apology. Possibly you were unavoidably detained, but ff 20 you should certainly make an explanation. Promptness and punctual- tty are emsential to a young man's suc- oens.in anything. A laggard tn love will @oon find himself outstripped. Be Kind, Be Patient. I am a poor, hard-working man, of ' good, regular habits, and am a steady worker. I take all my weekly earnings teme to my wife. My wife is a very unfesling woman. She never has o wmile fer me when I come home, is disagreea- ‘ble in every way possible, and I am un- able to endure it. The only thing that @raws me to my home is my little @aughter. What would be the best way te treat e woman of this kind? A. 8 ‘Do not attempt a cure in this ca: serding to the homeopathic form “Ike cures like.” If your wife is un- kind, do not be unkind yourself: if she tp disagreeable in her ways, try all the Rarder to be agreeable in your own ‘ways. This may seem a medicine that fs very hard to take, but if you will try it faithfully your home will be much happler. A ‘cat and dog life” Jed by husband and wife is one of the addest things in the world, Each alde @hould be willing to use every effort to put peace in the place of strife. Your wife should appreciate your hard @aily toil for her ana she should greet your home-coming tn the evening with EIGHTH ARTICLE OF SERIES. for Aching Hearts. smiles and pleasant words, You, on your part, should not think your duty done when you have brought her your week- ly earnings. ,You must remember that @ woman's housework has its trials as well as a man’s work in the busy out- aide world. There are little frets and worries which often make a woman “grumpy” against her will. There are Uttie courtesies and kind attentions which, when shown by a good husband to his wife, will help her forget the jars and hitches in the running‘of the do- mestic machinery. Praise your ‘wife more and blame her less, then, perhaps, she will give you fewer frowns and more frequent pleasant smiles, Let the litte daughter be a bond of union between you, Give Your Mother Your Confidence. Dear Mrs. Ayer: Iam a young lady of twenty-three and have been going with a young man for nearly two years. The gentleman worked for my brother, It was love at first sight. My parents didn't object then. There {s no fault to be found with him, He has no bad habits, but now my mother hates him and I atm not allowed to be in his company, Give me your ad- vice, as I dearly love him, ANXIOUS BELLE. I advise you to belleve that a mother is neatly always a young woman's best friend, Speak to your mother in full- confidence and ask her to teil you what has changed her feelings with re- gard to this young man. Perhaps you can convince her that he !s worthy of her esteem. Or it may be she will show you that he {s unworthy of your, own. 7 SIN.

It is conceded that while a tall woman may have the air of a goddess and the carriage of an empress, and the tiny ‘woman may be a veritable sprite in charm and daintiness, still the perfect woman should be 5 feet 5 inches tall.
