Beware of the man whose charit- able gifts consist of sympathy. { | | A Bit of Philosophy. { "I réally do not know amything {about husbands and wives and |wodded life," answered Oharles {when I asked him rather rudely, { what he, a bachelor, knew about | married life, "and perhaps that is | the reason I am so well able to an- {alyze the actions of men and women | after' they are married. You know, Katherine, that after a man grows to middle age----"" "But, Charles, you are not middle age," I interrupted. "Anyone to hear you talk would think you were old." "Yes," Charles answered, "I have reached 'the middle of life, I was thirty-five years old yesterday and 4 you remember that the psalmist says something to the effect that the length of years of man is of three score years and ten, Half of seventy is thirty-five, Katherine, and 1 guess | that I feel older than even that. At least I know that when a man begins to count the time that will probably stretch between him and eternity he may be sure that he is past the first milestone beyond maturity. I did not intend, however, to go into this long explanation. Everyone knows that a man is as old as he feels. Some way I have been feeling a hundred lately. / Looks About Among His Friends. "What I wanted to say was this: After a man gets beyond the age | where 'a woman' must be 'a woman' {to interest him he begins to look about among his married friends and wonder if hugging to his heart the intangible substance of a dream is always within his arms a Teality, and that reality something that seems very heavy at times." "Sour grapes," I laughed. He stood his ground? "Are they not sour?" he asked. "No, and that's just what makes marriage so interesting. The grapes are not all sour and because we nev- er know which grape is going to be sweet and which sour, which grape is going to make you smack your lips joyously at the lusciousness of its flavor and which is going to pucker your mouth with the bitter acid of its unpalatableness you still keep tasting, hoping for a sweeter flavor, than has yet been yours."

The ol adage that "there is noth~ ing new under the sun" is constantly brought to our minds with more cer- tain force. It was only it soems that a brand new idea 'had been discovered when it was found that cows yielded greater returns of nilk when music was played in their presence. Thomas Hardy, however, in "Tess of the d'Urbervilles, writ- ten in the reign of Queen Victoria, states that "songs were often resort od to in dairies as an enticement to cofvs when they showed signs of with- holding their usual yield and the band of milkers would burst out in- to melody. When they. had gone through fourteen or fifteen verses of a ballad, they would resort to a fiddle or other musical instrument." In another place Hardy makes one of the dairymen teil .the following story*about the effect of music on an argry bull Lt. "Oh, yes; there's nothing like & fiddle. Though I do think that bulls are more moved by a tune than cows co, by name. I.knowed the man by sight as well as I know my own brother, in & man- ner of speaking. Well, this man was a-coming home along from a wedding where he had been playing his riddle, one fine moonlight night, and for in i HE i §588s not a happier condition than having- gesfrf is more than the ce of life?" "Yes, it is to me what I think it it is to most people. Variety is the Jel necessity of my life. 1 have n very happy Since I was married, Charles, and 1 have been very un- jj happy and I do not believe now that I have come to get the right perspec. tive on my marriage I would really care to give up the unhappiness any more than I would the happiness." "You're a strange girl, Kather- ine." "Not so strange. Most women do not'tell the truth, my friend. If they were perfectly truthful they would say they are not looking for, happi- ness, but change; something differ- ent to-day from what they had yesterday. What we call happiness, but what we want, what you want, what I want, what everybody wants are the thrills of life. It doesn't make much difter- epoe whether it is great happiness or great sorrow, the only thing is that neither shall continue long enough to become prosaic. Food for the soul must be of as great variety as food for the body. When I die, Charles, I want my friends to say of me, she has Hved and while that means she has loved it atso means she has suf- fered." "You have learned much since you were married," said Charles. * "Yes, 1 believe that marriage is supposed to be the greatest school of 'ekperience in the world and it is a school to which every woman should go. I think that every woman should marry even if she knows that she will be as unhappy as 1 have been, an unhappiness, however, which no girl ever expects." Altogether Too Philosophical. "Are you still unhappy, dear," he asked rather wistfully. "It doesn't seem possible you could talk the way you do if you were. You Speak of it as if you were another person. You are too philosophical, too analytical for the story to be your own.' ; "1 do not think so," I wered. "No happy woman, or man & her, for that matter, is éver a philosopher. While our blessings outnumber our woes we do not stop to count them."

It has become fashionable now in England to ask your friends into an almost bare drawing room. It there {s no piano it mekes no difference; nobody is likely ¢o ask where it has gone if one happens to know you are the proud possessor of a maid, The only music in life ematates from the Kitchen nowadays. "Above stairs" they have neither the time nor the money to spend on it. Big furnished stores fill their win- dows with goods intended for kitchen comfort. So that no upstart house- wite will mistake their uses they are duly labeled "kitchen plano," "writing table for kitchen' and so forth. No more plain deal chairs and tables for Mary Jane. Since she bobbed her hair and joined the "waacs" she has grown decidedly "arty" and her tastes must be cater- ed to accordingly. So the drawing room bric-a-brac finds & place on the fitchen shelf, kitchen chairs dnd tables, 'as sold in the stores, come under the category of "art furniture." " Yegend of the Irish Harp.
