Against these two days—one of pain, one of joy—it is equally the duty of Lhe wife to save, If the husband is lost, the task of supporting the family falls on the wife ; if he is saved, the burden of supporting the family until he is again earning money will fall on the wife's savings. It is the duty—the proud duty—of the Canadian Patriotic Fund to help the woman make provision for either of these inevitable days.
