KEEPING OUT
.OF THE RUTS
13elow we print the talk given by
Mrs. Thos. Gaunt at the Whitechurch
Women's Institute.
"In the burden and heat of the day,
with the stress of .making and keep-
ing a 'home against all kinds of odds,
the heads of a household sometimes
forget what they began home for, and
of the real things that make life worth
living, so it behooves home -makers
to now and then take inventory of
themselves and their habits of voice,
eiPi tought an5, speech. Are they grow-
ing sharp -voiced and captios? Do
they find fault with everything and:
everyone about them?! Do they have
one voice and set of manner for out-
siders and another for the homefolks?
Do they feel that everything in the
lefid is going wrong and getting
worse. Then, the chances are . that
thereis something wrong, and they
had better have a session .with them-
selves, talk it over with their family,
and see what can be done to clear
the docks of family disorder.
In some homes?, unhappiness and
discontent steal in, not because there
is anything "especially" wrong on ei-
ther side, but because of a habit of
saying and doing "' unpleasant things
as a matter of working off "spleen"
of .using one's family as a sort of buf-
fer, to rub off the irritation that
comes from things going wrong else-
where,
How true it often' is that,
AIV'e've a careful •thought for the
Stranger,
And a smile for the sometime
guest.
But oft for our own, the bitter tone
Though we love our own . the
best.
Really many of. the nasty unpieas-
ant things said in a moment of irri-
tation that cause discontent and un-
happiness in a household, do not
come from the heart, but are merely
the result of permitting momentary
feeling to get the 'better of oneself,
of,,failing to hold in restraint at a
vital moment, that most dangerous
of alr weapons, the tongue, and:'af-
ter all, it is easy enough, hard tho'
it may seem, to acquire the habit of
bridling the tongue, the secret of suc-
cess._is really. in ?making a start. •If
only the prornises made to oneself
in the period of calm after the storm,
were carefully kept on the next hau-
ghty occasion, half the battle would
be won. Fight it out once, and the
second time it will be a touch easier
matter: to do.
Then again, there are the unforgiv-
ing kind, there are those that are un-
happy today because they will not
forget wrongs done to them, at one
time or another, by thisone and that
one. A trusted friend has proven
false to them. Some oneon whom
they had lavished kindness, has re-
paid with ingratitude, and so they,
feel aggrieved at hint ' and at others
and at the world in general.: True, it
is painful to be wrongly suspected or
accused; it is hardto have kindness
rewarded by ingratitude.
By far the greatest pain from
vroug-doing done to one, is derived

to -morrow. Few are the offences that
cannot be forgiven, and few that can
not be forgotten; Life offers better
work than sitting and pining over
wrongs,and the,sooner they o •
l y a e for-
gotten,
r
gotten, the better for one's peace of
heart.
Dwell rather on acts of kindness
that others have shown you, and there
shall be neither the time nor mood
to brood upon what can only wound
the heart anddisturb the mind,
Family life is a feminine institu-
tion, don't forget and it' succeeds or
fails to ,a great extent according to
the woman -responsible for it. The
woman who is "never done" has small
chances of developing a happy family
life. Her mental attitude is wrong.
Change that, and you change every-
thing.
But the question is, how tochange
it? The woman who has washed,
scrubbed, ironed, cooked, tended the
children, and chickens, and has done
a thousand other jobs all day long
and who, despite all these labours has
reached sundown with the feeling that
her day has not been a success, and
that to -morrow, and to -morrow, and
to -morrow, and on and on, and on
forever, is going to be just like to-
day, has been cheated out of some-
thing in life,
She has been robbed of joy, and
of the good feelings of work well
done. So, being a woman, she takes
it out on her husband. It's .wonderful
how much a husband can be blamed
for. He can't be so powerful and in-
telIigent that he is the cause of every-
thing and if evening finds her an un-
happy woman, with a feeling that the.
day has been like a big rag bag, with
a lot of odds, and ends hanging out
at the top, it is her own fault. The
first.thing to do, if you are a woman,
who is "never done" is to take the
blame and then look. for a way out.
If it takes an hour to washthe dishes,
then go and watch some neighbour
who gets done in 20 minutes. Nine
times outof ten you can re -arrange
that kitchen table' or put in a few
extra shelves and put up a few extra
hook's and sometimes that is' all that
is necessary. Now if you think the
real object of marriage is to clean
the house, change your ideal. A home
is something more than a tin pan, to
be cleaned and scoured.
Don't think that the earnest house-
keeper is belittled. We are of the op-
inion that when once you get the

true in practice, an egg stays fresh
directly in proportion to the extent
to which it. contains CO2, and the two
bug -bears of cold storage, mould
growth and fungi, can develop only
in the presence of oxygen with a hu-
midity of 85 degrees at temperature: -
of 33 degrees F. or over. Owing tc
the absence of oxygen no mould'
growth takes place and the egg comes
out of storage in a most attractive
