ATIENCE Is perhaps the virtue most necessary to human hap piness. It Is necessary in tho relations between mother und child, between brother and sister, espe cially between hUBband and wlfo, be tween teacher and pupil, between friends and between employer nnd em ploye. Tho mother must have patience with tho little mischievous pranks of her joungBtera and the faults of her grown up children, or Bho will cause them and herself much sorrow rrom her bursts or temper. Thero must bo mutual forbearauco and forgiveness between brother and sister if happi ness Is to relgn in the household. Whero Is success for the teacher who has no patience? As one of the characters in a popular play tersely remarks, "It can't be done." Teaching to be successful must go hand In hand with patience. In fact, tho average In structor needs more than his share of this Invaluable virtue, for In a class of twenty pupils perhaps only one will have lively intelligence, ten will be densely stupid and tho other nine will bo in between, not exactly stupid and certaluly not noticeably intelligent. How trying, then, for a man or woman of ordinary brains to attempt to im- ne or either have not tho desire or the intel ligence to grasp tho lesson Imparted I Then think of the cmployors who huvo to break in now workers monthly or eveu yearly. The impatient em ployer who snupa at his stenographor if her pencil point breaks and arouses tho whole offlco staff to a state of fear ful perturbation If ono or Its members buppena to bo luto- such an employer may, and doubtless does, keep his em ployes Jumping, but nevertheless his impatience, is to his own disadvantage. By losing his temper over accidents or trifling, unlmportunt mistakes he often causes the dismissal or employes who are twice as capable and efficient as any successors ho may later engage. Tho man who Is patient with his work ers, who icallzes that they aro hu man, not inanimate machines, und therefore liable to mistakes, obtains more satisfactory work than his com petitor with the lively temper Particularly between husbaud and wife Is patience necessary, for each has fallings which the other must bear cheerfully and lovingly "Bear and torbear" should bo tho motto of mar ried life, UOOM8 dipped for a few min utes in boiling suds once u week will last much longer than they otherwise would.
