TROUBLES
Do we not know that more than half our trouble is borrowed? Just suppose that we could get rid of all u"erce:'sary and previous ter- ror: just suppose that We could be sure of final victory in every con- flict. --nd final emergence out oi’ every shadow into brighter day. how our hearts would be lightened. How much more bravely we should work and fight and march for- ward? This is the courage to which we are entitled and which We may find in the thought that God is with us everyirliere

HER.E’S A MAN WHO BIT A DOG
The man who bit the dog is no longs.-r‘a legend. While a wedding procession was marching through the street of Beshenevo. Jugosiavla, the bridegroom—who was the Mayor of the township, Dusko chirtch—in a frenzy of happiness seized a barking dog which was ac- companying the party and bit its tail off
The dog's howls were drowned by the music of the wedding band, but the Mayor‘s act did not go unnotic- ed by his critics on the local coun- cil. The latter declare that local opinion is so shocked over what. is considered the undignified act of the Mayor. that is it likely he may be deposed. The mayor himself pleads that high spirits at the pro- spect of his marriage and the number of toasts his friends had made him drink were responsible for his biting the dog——South Slav Herald.
WHEN PSYCHOLOGISTS DIS- AGREE. WHAT CAN ORDINARY FOLK THINK?
Dr. John. J B. Morgan, North- western University psychologist. commenting on a. prediction that the Dionne quintuplets stood "a good chalice of growing into heart breakers and old maids." declared recently there was no scientific basis for such a statement.
“The quints are too young io\be affected one way or another," he said. “There future attitudes toward the opposite sex will be molded by a great many factors during their childhood and adolesence."
The heart breaker prediction was made by Dr. Donald A Laird, of Colgate University, who said the quints’ segregation from little boys while very young might make them "man haters."
Dr. Morgan challenged the Col- gate psychologist‘: statement that premature birth tended to make children better looking was also without scientific foundation.
WINDOW CURTAINS
Making curtains is a task most women tackle with confidence
They enjoy handling the dainty nets and the new cotton materials with their large design in simple
clear colors which all have good hanging qualities
But there are many points the housewife should not overlook if
her curtain-making is to be en- tirely satisfactory. First she should consider the
type of window she is "dressing." short curtains are for easement. windows and those fitted with dia- motmd panes. Modern French win- dows require curtains of floor length.
In Bay Window: Bay windows will be well dressed
with short and long curtains -com- bined. it is at sash windows, found
in ‘ether old-fashioned houses. that curtain draperies should fall to full-length.
Little. insignificant windows can be much improved by curtains taken a little above and outside the frames Very deep pclmats on the other hand. do much to shoicn the look of a room that is too high
In sewing the curtains the short net curtains should have it heading and a casing through which the rod or fire is threaded
If trouble is experienced in sew- ing net curtains it is as well to stitch a piece of tissue paper in with them. This applies especially to machine-sewn curtains. The paper is easily torn away after- wards.
In joining curtains which must be wider than the width of the ma- terial, the sclvedges can be sewn together without the seam showing at all. But to add half-a-width is not to easy. Then the join must certainly come on the outside of the curtain—not. towards the cen- tre of the window. The rule is I French seam for thin materials and a flat-fell for anythinz thick
There are many T0350“ Why curtains are lined. Finst. linings give every window a matching I-P‘ pearance from outside. Another reason is that the lining catches most of the dirt and most of the wear so with CKDGHMW d’-‘"353 °' chint: I sateen lining is a wise in- veetment.
Curtain valances are I. law unto themselves but as a. rule it is the gathered frlll which goes best with thin curtnln materials: bax4P1¢|'r' ed frills are for sturdy fabrics, and
shaped peimeu when the room and
the windows are both large.
The conventional length for I would seem in be one-inch

I The HOUSEWIFE and. l Dorothy D,-xi HER ACTIVITIES
Frequent But Brief Separations Are Good for the Hearts of Every Husband and Wife-— Reunions Bring Joy and They Forget the Car-pings and Criticisms
Most husbands and wives are togetbnr too much or not enough, and which is the more dangerous to connubia. '*“‘-‘~ -«A. god, who mgue that erratic organ, the human heart, can tell,
with the disastrous consequence, 9, _
married couple being together too much we are sadly familiar. It is what turns praising lovers into carping critics. It, in what “us the pink chifloiu of romance into dull-hued rags and tatters. It is what takes the kick out of marriage and turns it from a thrill into a. chore. For it is only too true, as the old saw puts it, that familiarity breeds ontempt, and that we value people in we do in proportion to their rarity.
We all know from personal experience that no matter how much we love an indivi- dual or how attractive he or she may be, that We set fed up on his or her society if we get > overdoses of it. We cease to noticg me beauty's loveliness. Wits‘ wisecracks fall flat. We remember we have heard their good stories before. They begin to bore us. We commence to notice little flaws and defects in their manners and their Ch3l‘Mt0l‘S- We can no more stand thirty days‘ unlnterniptcd companionship with the same person than we can eat thirty quails in thirty days.
Every intelligent person knows that the chief thing that is the matter with m rriagc is that there is too much of it. It's a too-continuous per- formance. And if it were only possible to be married half of the time instead of all of it, there would be no divorces. For whether they admit- it or not, even the most devoted husbands and wives do get tired of ench other now and then. They do get on each other’: nerves and they do get. as in the old fable, to the point where they can see only the squint in each other's eyes and the wart on their noses. Boredom has broken up more homes than all the sirens and sheiks who ever existed. For it is when they are talked out and have nothing of interest to say to M011 other that married couples begin fighting just to put some pep into life.
Every husband and wife have got to the place where they could see nothing but each other's defects and when the monotony of domestic iii seemed insupportable. When John looks at Mary he sees nothing but I homely. commonplace, middle-aged woman who chatters about the Child'- ren and the price of butchers’ meat until he feels that he could scream if he had to hear it all over one more time, and he wonders what the tool- kllled was doing on his wedding day that he escaped his Just fate.
When Mary looks at John she sees nothing but a paunchy, bald-head- ed man who is fussy about his eating and takes pills at the table, and she marvels that she ever saw in him a. hero of romance or thought she couldn't live without him. But let this disgruntled, disillusioned couple part for two or three weeks and when they come together again their eyes are full of the dreams of their youth and they are thrlllingly interestlns to each other, and home is the grandest place on earth.
There is no remedy so efficacious for that tired feeling in mM'!1B8° as a little separation, and a railroad or steamship ticket would save many
a divorce.
But if being together too much is bad for husbands and wives, rot being together enough is equally dangerous. A married couple to be truly one must have the same interests. They must do the same things, may must work together and play together. They must, have the same back- ground and be able to say, "Don't you remember?" They must develop to- gether, and they cannot do this ii‘ they are thrown in different environ- ments.
Another danger of husbands and wives being separated too long at a time is that they lose their sense of dependence on each other, and this is a fatal thing, especially for wives. When a woman's husband finds out that he can do without he r and locate his own shirts and handkercniefa and remember what he likes for dinner, she has lost her chief hold upon him.
Also, when the cat is away the mice will play, and those wives who go for a. year in Europe or three months in the Summer and leave husband alone are pretty sure to find out when they return that he hasn't spent his time mourning over their absence, but has found a nice little playmate to console him.
From all of which we may wisely deduce the conclusion that the way to be happy though married is for huwands and wives to give each other frequeni: but brief vacations. DOROTI-{Y DIX.

our Henry, who wouldn't stoop R! either, but sits on his shoulder blades (and often right under the teacher's nose. so he can shoot spit balls) is considered a heart-brealf and a no-good by almost every member of organized society—ex- cept his mother.
Well. mothers are blind. We have to ncknowledge this. At least they develop ustigrnatisrns. But most of them are pretty sharp. too, and shrewd. when it comes to certain characteristics in their young. And there is something so consistent in their plaint about this fellow that nobody understands and about its having stood the test of the centuries without a. dent. that the others can't be right all the time.

It would interest the public to know how many really great peo- ple live entirely disorganized lives.
Regular meal-time, bed-time and work hours stifle them, as well as community habit or Whatever is Expected. They fit into no known
pattern, generous, and nearly always affectionate. However, if there is too much
pressure for their own tempera- mental happiness, they sto'e up a tremendous amount of rest”: N- sentment. And resentment usually means outbreaks and trouble. Be- ware critics. Beware, reformers
This is analyzing Henry, not bat- tling for him. That. would undo one of the essentials credited in character building. Work-hnlbit, at least some conformity to routine. and co-operation must still be our guide. To advise anythnlg else is to encourage licence and laziness. But our true Henry is not a bad boy. He is a type. He has a. right to his own nature. And usually he can be handled well by the nstuto and the sympathetic person who knows exactly what he is and the pro-
