Don’t think you know it all because your employer happens to compliment you, It is far better to think that you don’t know so much than it is to think that you do for you often make a mistake. Is it wise for a girl to associate with a widower who was cruel to his first wife? _ It is said that if a man is cruel to_his first wife, he will be a model husband o his second wife. The wise girl will not marry a man who does not treat his own’ mother with respect. Some men are under the opinion that all women are false. Such men as sin. Why is it that men will seek to ruin the reputation of a girl and speak evil of her? The little dark complexioned man with the voice of a woman, had better be careful. The girls are on to him, A gentleman will not speake ill of a woman, or put the same low estimate on all women he does on one. Some men hate the idea of being told their deficiency by a woman. Old maids are generally sensitive and it is a great wrong to Taugh at them especially when they are trying to look their best. Parents should not allow their daugh ters to visit or board during the sum- mer until they are qualified for such an oceasion. A man is responsible for the shelter food, and for the raiment needed by wife and children, Life would be eased of many of its hard times if there were a more thoughtful use of our p ions in providing pleasure,for other Hospitality seems to have no place at all, ‘Che more you do for some people the more they expect of you. Since it istrue that a man is_respon- sible for all the household affairs he must have the right of direction. A woman is not less than her™ [.8- band or beneath him in any way. It is sometimes said that the wife is the heart and the husband the head of the home. A girl of fourteen shou'd not wear her hair turned up and her dresses touching her feet, if so she should b discarded by girls of the same age and even older ones. One bad woman or man can be the ruination of two dozen or more people and a wise mother should train her children accordingly. Never allow a man to be always mending broken promises. point her Marriage without love is ¢ sin, although people oftimes commit such a sin for revenge. A woman of refinement rather feels that she had fewer gowns than feel that she has not sufficient underwear. It isnot necessary for a hostess to look after a gentleman’s overcoat. When he is old enough to call he is old enough to look after nis own be- longings. — =... MARRIAGE UNDER DIFFICUL- TIES. When the young New Englanders in the early days of the Colony wished {o enter the state of matrimony they did not find it any too easy work, writes Alice Morse Earle in a most valuable article on “Courtship and Marriage in Puritan Days” in the August Ladies home Journal. In the first place, no young man could “make a motion of marriage”to any young woman whose fair face, or deft fingers; or sweet di-positions had attracted his fancy or his affections’ without first cb- taining the consent of the fair one’s father or guardian to thus address her. He was liable to arrest fine or imprison ment if he spoke to ber first and thus; *inveigled her affections.” Many a bold and headlong swain was punished for that natural offense in early days, and I doubt not many another slyly in- veigled, unpunished and undiscovered, in order to find out from her own lips, the state of affections borne toward him by the one he loved. It must have been somewhat of a damper on_love- making to have to make such a formal beginning, but there was no lack of marriages, Inde d, single persons were much scorned in the Puritan community. ‘‘ancient maids” few and much to be pitied. Bachelors were looked on with open disfavor, were not allowed to live alone, and sometimes had to pay a weekly fine to were |- THE VeRDICIU" If 30, do they fit you? Do they wear well?
