{ADMMENT AND GOSSIP AMONG”.
THE WOMEN, BY'ON-E
OF THEM. '
Spite of all that poets say or sing of
levers’ quarrels and the delights of
reconciliation, in the plain prose Of
which everyday life is composed,
gnarl-e15 of all sorts and descriptions
should most decidedly be avoided, for
all those who have any real knowledge
of life know from personal experience
that the falling out of faithful friends
is “not always a renewal of love.”
()‘n the contrary, it is more of-
ten than not the ending of friendship,
and the occasmn of much bitter feeling.
Noah-ct even when the friends are
lovers.asw-ell,‘and the quarrel is fol-
lowed by reconciliation, is the love al-
ways: renewed; for love is a tender
plant, and has sometimes been known
to wither and die when too much ex-
posed to chill winds of anger.
Therefore it is much better and
wiser to beware the entrance of a quar-
rel, even between lovers, than to give
ithouseroomfor however short a space '
of tithe..- .
linithi-tunately, the idea seems to have
taken root among many youthful lovers,
especially those of the weaker sex, that,
though the quarrel itself may not be
exactly delightful, it is a proof of the
Mir one’s power over the man who
levee, her, and that the making up
'a'hich she is certain will speedily fol-
lowwill be sweet exceedingly.
Thismay be the case once or twice,
perhaps ofte‘ner. but even sweets will
pail at- last if indulged in too freely, so
a surfeitbf sweet reconciliations is not
a diet to be recommended.
'zE'eOple are only too apt to think
lightly of lovers’ quarrels, to make a
jest of them, to talk of them as things
of no moment, forgetting of the harm
their silly words and idle jests may do,
especially to a young and inexperi-
enced girl in the first flush of her hap-
piness and the dignity of her new posi-
Lion, with, perhaps, that little wilful
pride of p)wer which shows itself in
Mug slightly exacting towards the
mmwhose love she has accepted, and
who in. those early days of acknowl-
edged love,-rather than bring a frown
tothe face ofi'his charmer, submits to
her every caprice.
But this stage of submission seldom
fists for lOng, and then arises, if care
hunch taken. and love does not pre-
‘nent, that “little rift within the lute”
that if not stayed in time will destroy
all the sweet chords and harmonies of
life.
Women are supposed to love the
exercise-of power, and they do not as a
rule contradict the} assertion. Nay,
they even pretend that " they do, but
each one knows perfectly well in “her
heart of hearts” that it is not the weak,
10nd lover, who indulges her in every
willful whim and caprice, that wins
henhest and truest love, but the man
to whom she can look to for‘ helo and
guidance along life’s pathway, on whose
til-rength she can lean, and in whose‘
wisdom she can trust.
Yes, and paradox as-it may sound, it
isnotthe man of a strong and wise.
judgment with whom she ventures on
alovers’ quarrel, but .with the weak,
Fodnlgentlover, who never says her

To 10% once is to. love always—but
not necessarily the. same person.

wid6w to' know that: history 7. repeats

Some of the most disgraceful acts
are performed by the most graceful
sinners. ‘ ’ _
.'Why should a woman always act’ as
though she were ashamed of a good
appetite ? ' '
Was there ever a husband born who
gavehis wife more money than she
wanted? '
for hassocks who never think of using
them.

. Rain on the roof 'may sound very
soothing unless you happen to be out
in it with your best frock on. '
The amount Of'time that can be con-
sumed in, eating and drinking, to say
nothing Of money, is simply marvelous.
By the time a woman thoroughly
understands the ins and outs Of love
‘she is usually too old to care anything
about it. '
A woman is never satisfied with her
picture unless it looks so unlike her
that no one would ever - guess that it
were her.
§ The skeleton in the closet is such a.
' common household commodity these
days that we don’t mind opening the
door for the world to peep in at it, and
can even doze comfortably while the
bones rattle.
The innate economy of a woman is
demonstrated when she tries to "do”
the slot machine by weighing herself
and baby at the same time, through
the accuracy of their indiv1dual weight
must be forever a question under‘ such
circumstances.
