Since then he had progresesed, heal gained., not only in workiler goods, but in edueation and. culture. Hie wife had not progreeseed. She had remained- mentally- where the woe when they married. She had been a fitting wife for him, the husband arguea, when he was a workingman, employed at so much per (lay, but she was not fitted for hizn now. So a separation was re- imeeted. The first thought oe everyone would, naturally be that the husband was a despicable cad, that he ought to be proud of the wife who had aided him to his early ateugglee. The Madan plait Inquirer, which takes this view of the ease e says: "She suited him very well when he married her, for he was a poor man then, and he wanted a wife who would work and. stint and save end help hiin in iete 'business. At that period of bis career he and his wife got along to- gether very well and he was glad. enough of the aasistanee which Om was able and willing to give him, but when he began to prosper she ceased to be as neeeseary as she had been to his -welfare, and when he hail accumu- lated 0, fortune, as after a few yenta he did, froni being a help and a eont- fort she grew to be an incumbrance. The trouble was that she failed toac- commodate herself to eircumsta.ncee in the way which be considered 'de- sirable, and, indeecl, essential," Yet there are two sides to the ease. .Merica is the lona of opportunities and in it there are many men who started as day laborers and. rose to A great wealth and high position. They have become prominent in the finan- cial or politie.a4 world. Suth a man is not to -day the same man that he was 40 years ago. He has met and dealt with and conversed with men of all ranks. He has travelled. Life has given him an education, as truly as any college could, an education in fact melt deeper and more valuable than tbat which any- institution can give, • Ile has broadened mentally and at tained culture, while his fortunea heve grown. Meanwhile his wife has remained at home. Her social and. mental horizon has been narrow compared with that of her husband. It may be that her industry, her efforts to save, her devo- tion to home, have made it possible for her .husband to progress. But the fact remains that she had stood till while he has advanced. Often the deepest tragedy of the situation is in the fact that her continuous efforts in a narrow sphere have helped his pro- greee in the wider one, the progress which bas made so great a gull be- tween them. Yet the fact remains that the gulf is tbere and. that it is wide and deep. The memory of former clays, a spirit of loyalty, may hold the husband, yet that is not love and there can be little real harmony of thought and life be- tween a husband. and wife tints situated. Neverthelese, no fair-mincled pereon would say that the Itueleuid was in such a case justified in getting a di- vorce or separation, in throwing off a wife who had been true to him through so many years of toil and struggle. It is difficult to find any setiefactory so- lution for sueli 0 ituation, In feet, It is because there is no satisfactory answer to suck a problem that it is a tragedy, a tragedy none the less real because Itdeals with everyday, home life and leaks the sensational surround - alga of stage or romantie tate.

From the records in the office of the Dairy Commissioner, Ottawa, received from members of 000g testing associa- tions, it appears that in the month of August the av.eratte yield of 3,000 COWS recorded in Ontario was 770 pounds of milk, 3.1 test, and 211 pounds of fat. On dividing these cows into two groups, those yielding below that aver- age and those above, it is found that 1,40 cows give an average of only 053 pounds of milk and 23 pounds of fat. Thus, had their yield been equal to only the average of all the 3,000 cows, they Would each 'Hive given 113 pounde of milk more, or a total yield of an ex- tra 168,740 pounds of milk. What a pity they did not! The second group, those yielding above the average, includes the remain- ing 1,570 cows, which produced 833 pounds of milk, or 107 pounds above the average of the 3,000 cows, find actually 225 pounds of milk above the average of the 1,430 poor cows. ' The earuings of the gemd cows amounted to the huge sum of $4,439.00 more, in' the one month, than the earn- ings of the poor emit. This begins to opeu our eyes to the tremendous possibiatiet, of inereased revenue from keeping bettet cows. Why should we remain content with only "average" cows? The poor cow must go. C. la W.

A fashionable Pittsburg aura has established a complete playroom with reliable nurses where you can check your baby just, as you do your hat and overcoate before going in. Everybody knows that a baby is tbe finest thing in the world, and that he who goes through life without leaving one behind dies very poor indeed, a lady writes. But many women have felt that their hearts wOuld grow much fonder of their babies if they -could be absent from them occasionally, though ever so sel- dom. Manifestly, every family cannot have a nurse of its own, for then only half tho world's women could be mothers, for the other half would have to be nurses. But we could share our nurses. It would be a good idea to have public nurseries, preferably in the home dis- tricts. TIM youngsters would be hi charge of graduate nurses of the high- est professional standing. They would be masters of the art of keepiug eta dren at healthy play. But don't' think We are proposing pub. lie mothers as a substitute for the old. fashioned kind, as we hear sonte "new" ----or maybe just "fresh" --women pro- pose!

Kele°, Toronto, IT IS NEWS WORTH OIVINO TO THE WOO Home Dyeing . Has it ever occurred to you what a large number Qf things one can Dye at Home, and in that way make quite a saving? When on shopping expeditions, you halve often noticed on the "Bargain Counters" Bemhants offered at ridicu- lously low prices. The reason for these low prices was not by any means on ac- count of the materials being of poor quality, but becouse the shades or colors were out of style; thematerials often being of snperipr quality. Now, these bargains could be taken advantage of, time by Dyeing the Goods, the colors could be 'changed to the most delicate shade of any of t'he foshionable colors popular at the time, And reineao ber that it doesn't make the slightest difference whether the goods are Wool, Cotton, Silk or Mixed, as there are Home Dyes now that with the Same Dye, one can color cloth of Any Kind peyrfoeun ctl Yi.ay possibly have a dress that is hardly worn at all, but is out of fash- ion as to color and style.

Never try to color anything a Lighter shade than the article is originally. White or very light colored goods can be Dyed any darker shades or any color. Just as soon as you have decided What you are going to Dye, you will want to know how much you will require.• For the Lighter shades and for small articles, such as Ribbons, Silk or Cotton Gloves, Stockings, Bleuses, etc., one package as a rule will be sufficient.

The man who Mks in the Bible for min. ute and detailed direetious for the coriduct of daily life will look in vela. Jesus Christ, when dealing with individuals, dealt with them as individuals, as lu the ease of the young ruler, whom Re advis- ed to sell all that he had, and give to the poor; but this is the only case on record where we find Hine giving such a airection. It may be argued that His teaching would leed all men to do pate- tikally the very 'thing which He asks of this young man, but whether this be true or not, awl we have no dispel - Mott to argue the point, the fact remaina that, as far aa. the record goes, this counsel was velem.

Some of these figures really bre uncorseted, but the majority of them wear the new cor- sets, which are said to be the proper thing by Dame Fashion & CO., .cor- Zefieres. These co -nets are merely hip con- finers. They extend only a few inch- es above th.e waist when they are held close to the figure by elastic. The skirt extension is cut on corset lines with boned gorings. A brassiere should be worn to confine the body a little more than does the ordinary loose frivolous garment worn by the average woman. This evolution in staye has evident- ly been brought about by the vogue for the high waist line and the man- darin bodice. But whatever the seal cause, the wide women who adopt the fashion. are going to be both healthier and mere cotafortable. • e* ANY NEW MDTHODS? (Cleveliand Leader.)

Did you ever stop to think that the differneee between the nice* days tted the spoilel ones is largely dif ferenee in you? Here is a recipe for making a good day.
