Well. of course. they appear to be constructed of flesh and alcod. oven as the auilrun of humanity is. but when ~I perceive the marvels they perform.

And what. except the God-given rubber in a woman, enables the one who is married to a phil- anderer to forgive him time after time and erase

' from her memory his sidestepplng when he promises

And furthermore, isn't it the precrdained lot oi every woman to be the bumper in her family who stands between the children and Papa, and the little dears who fight with each other like the Kilkenny cats. and take all the hard knocks? And could any constltuflon stand that that didn't have the resilience of rubber?

Every good wife and mother has also concealed about her person.

a backbone that is made of chilled steel. though her husband and chli- i dren may never even suspect it. The iron hand in the velvet glove is Mother's. She keeps a. grip on her y ungstersihat they cannot break I and holds them in the right road until they develop into fine men and women. And many a weak man owes his succes to his wife lending, him her backbone to brace him up. And who can doubt that Providence mercifully has provided wives and mothers with trick eyes that ena-ble them to see what they want to see in their husbands and children and make them blind as bats to faults and foibles that they wculd rather die than recognize?
