Of course there are women who trive to please’ all their lives and get nothing for their pains, ‘hero gre mothers who ure martyrs to bossy husbands, who, because they ate “good providers,” insist on the whole household being regulated by them, ‘the masters.

It took years to find it out, for I kept trying to conform to her wishes §n order to avoid trouble, and finally I found that I was living her life only ‘and that my existence was one con- stant sacrifice of my own desires. “And, strange to say, she seemed to take a keen delight in taking the op: yposite view from my own, and I be- Bieve it was just for the purpose of »maving her own way about it, so that very often in order to get something I wanted 1 would have ‘o resort to the opposite opinion about it. “To begin with, she had rujes and regulations.

They are not satisfied with being an equal partner in the marriage relation, but they want to have all the say as to how it should be conducted. if only women would understand hat you can’t boss a man into being what you want. You may ‘get away with itt’ for a little time, but eventu- ally the worm will turn.

It ts well known that many women boss a man and he does not know he is being bossed. As a general thing she has softened his character and undermined his ability to decide for himself. She does not realize that she is making a weakling of him and that sooner or later it will be mani- tested. If you would avoid bossing, know that it is the everyday exercise of kindness that keeps the heart alive. ‘Tis a wise wife who keeps a little sweet oil on hand to meet the grind of life.

I wish we lived in the stone age, when life was simple and inexpensive.” “I doubt if life was ever simple and inexpensive," said Mr. Jarr gloomily. “I'll bet the cave men and women and the cliff dwellers of antediluvian days lived beyond their incomes, too, and were in debt for the skins they wore and the mammoth meat and wild fruits they ate."* “But we were not speaking of the high cost of living,’ Mrs, Jarr in sisted, “we were speaking of the high cost of week-ending as non-paying guests of wealthy friends.’ “Weill, you can bet it wag just the fame th week-ending in pre- Adamite times,” said Mr. Jarr. “The week-end guests paid and paid and paid since the dawn of time when the first prosperous cave man invited a less prosperous stone-ager to share his cavern over Sunday and a mess of mammoth with him. Invariably the trogiodvte host inveigled the guest into a game of knuckle bones and won his raw copper nore-ring and armlets and his best bear. skin overcoat from him. Then, perhaps, the Host crowned his Neanderthulic guest with a club and took his mate- woman--as Charmian London would say-—away from him.” ‘My gractous!"’ exclaimed Jarr testily, ‘Can't you even di the people of the stone age wi talking scandal?" ‘‘Not when the subject {s week-end- ing,"' said Mr, Jarre solemnly, ‘I only ay is tru Mrs. ut McCardell 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Co. wish to impress upon you that thus it always was up through the ages— from the neolithic period until to- day.

Midas is antique example of bird that thought money was everything. Midas thought so to ex- cess. As history dishes up the tale, Midas was king of the Republican ticket. He felt that everything he laid his paws on should turn to 14- karat gold. And Midas got his wish. On morning of first day, when Midas dug into grapefruit, stream of gold nuggets squirted in his eye. When king tackled boiled egg that chef brought in, it looked like it came from the goose that laid the gold ones. Midas tried doughnut Im hope it would be like lead, but even sinker carried guarantee for twenty years, And so it went. Everything the good king got next to shifted to the 14- karat league.

An old New Jersey historical work, published in 1844, gives the followin quaint account of the deed which m Molly Pitcher immortal: “ghe wae a female of masculine mould, and dessed in a mongrel suit, with the petticoats of her own sex and an artilleryman'’s coat, cocked hat and feathers.

These early immigrants were known as the Watauga Asso- ciation and, in spite of hardship and poverty, they planted the seeds of civilization in the Tennessee wilderness. In 1779 Capt.
