fT'S NOT true that there aro no
perfect wives," gallantly declared
mi elderly man who lives In
this town.
"I know, because I've got one."
When told how her husband re
garded her, the wife remarked:
"Well, he's a perfect husband."
And there you have the answer.
It's not so dllllcult to be n per
fect wife If the husband is some
where nenr perfect.
How can a woman be perfect when
a grouchy h shaml refuses to recog
nize her virtues, to speak the word
of praise or admiration or the ten
der little nothings that are so dear
to every woman?
A wlfo soon stops striving
to reach high Ideals when she lluds
her best efforts no moro appreciat
ed than the most slipshod methods.
When she discovers that a sweet
temper accomplishes nothing, she no
longer seeks to control the sharp
tongue. When she llnds that kicks

upon the altar of wifehood and

moving. Just because In her soul Is
u salutlliiess that can't lie killed, i
Such a woiii:mi passed not long

She was old and careworn. Invalid
nnd glad to die. In the Inst hour
her husband sat clasping her hand,
kiroHo'l with toil and rheumatism.
"Mary. Mary," he sobbed, "You
mustn't leave me. I'll miss you so."
"If you'd only said that to mc

He'd been a hard man. demand

Do you put on rose-colored gins- with

Are you always good tempered, no'
matter bow business cares and rani-'
lly responsibilities press upon you'.'l.
Have you been kind and patient!
when she was tired and nerve-,
worn? Have you been honest with
her In every way? Have you asked ,
Iter to p'ay with you as well as work
f 'r you. ami have you given her
"better" as well as "worse" to share

she Is precious to you?
If you haven't done anv of the1-''

And If you love your wife, don't!
think it beneath you to show It.
