MEN CARRY 0N

Bu‘ s man seldom tells you his troubles. Ils- forgets than or he thinks you have worries enough of your own and don't want‘ u, b, bothered with his, or lie desires to be thought successful instead of being lililcd. So he doesn't beat on his breast and publicly bsllyhoc.

From the fact that wives are nearLv always the petitioners in‘ fllvbftro, suits. d would seem that the world is filled with husbands who are bruins and wives who are anwls, but such is not the case, There are just as many mean, selfish, tic-account, disagreeable wives as there are husbands. There are lust as many bitterly disillusioned and un- happy husbands as there are wives. But there srs more men who are sports about marriage than there are women. More men stick to the bargain they liavc made than women,

Men even deny themselves the consolaton prize that the dis- gruiillcri wives have in complaining about their husbands to anyone um. uill lend them an ear. It is seldom that you hear a man criticize his uiic to others. but woincn make their husbands’ faults and shoriJ comings the chicf topic of conversation when they hold their talkfesta.

And so it goes through life. Even God didn't males | world ma; satisfies women and left them nothing to complain about. If they are married. they complain about how much trouble it is to pick up after n husband. about his scattering cigar butts on the rug. about his wan:- ing‘ to step out of evenings, or because he is a fireside sitter and won't budgcout of his chair. If they are not married, they complain about being lonely and wanting somebody to love them.

If titcy have good jobs, they complain about how hard they have to work and how their feet hurt them. Arid if they have nothing to do and are rich they complain about being bored. or. if they are poor. about not being able to dress like Miss Milllonbucks.

All ct which would be very sad if we didn't stop to remember the: vomrn got a kick out of complaining and that there is nothing they

It was a Jaet day. this one. James said shoul ering his axe in the afternoon to go to the wood-cut- ting. It was indeed very lovely, almost sprlng~like with a haze above the land. I wondered if I could have walked down to the lawn-corner where my rememb- rance bed of pansies sleep, if th e might be one or more wide-awn e beneath their covering of spruce- bouglis. And up along the wood- wad in the sun would an arbutus mistake this for a spring-day? A great lot of work was being accom- plished today over the countryside. Farmers taking advantage of the day w attend to various activities that could not be done so well or easily in the frost or the snow. that is bound to come again presently.

It came to me that if farmer's wives come from the store with smaller parcels of suzfll‘ or other rationed goods. the size

Q. How can I be certain that chicken is tender?

A After cleaning the fowl, rub the inside and outside thoroughly with a lemon before putting in the Limsslng. This makes the meat white. juicy. and tender. Adding a teaspocnful of lemon juice, or a tablespoonful of vinegar, to the water when boiling also helps to make it tender.

Q. How can I clean yarn‘?

A. Dirty yarn can be washed and used again if wound ‘into a skein. tlien tied in several places so it is held loosely. After wash- ing, hang in the sun until dry and it will look like new yarn.

. How can I remove liver oil stains from fabrics? A. Sponge freely with carbon tetrachloride and then WsJ-Ii in warm soapsuds. This would be _done as soon as Paisible.
