All that the wife can do will not
make the home an agreeable one.
Neither can a wife be happy with
a husband who is uddlcteu to flud
lpg fault with bin bread and but~

please him, yet when he sits down
to meals, she lives In constant fear
that some portion of the food will
not suit his fastidious taste.

you expect them to be mindful of

When the ever shining stars shall
Erano in the fading of our vision,

The idea seems to exist amoung us
that to be polite to each other in
ithe family circle is foolish and like
"putting on airs." We must rid
ourselves of this notion and act on
the principle that whatever helps
to make our Intercourse pleasanter
with those outside the family cir

to have the soboolhouses opened

For Welsh life has ? certain quality

Practically there is no upper middle

Toenail Surgery. , ?" 'i
most attempts mt;,
manontly to remove Ingrowing nails
fail is because they are not sufficient
ly radical, says a New Ofrlj^t phrsi
cian In the Times-Democrat. The
proper procedure la to anaesthetise
the patient ^pl^h ether or some other
general anesthetic, then, remove, surgi
cally, the entlrp aide of the nail which
tends to grow Jrrongly. The anesthetic
permits the surgeon to disseot out
the entire section of the aall to its
remotest attachments. One great dif
ficulty about treating Ingrowing naffe
14 that the sufferer cannot be per
suaded to wear a . sufficiently roomy
shoe to permit the new nail tissue to
rfrow naturally. Thus do vanity and
hygiene oontend.

In the early days of the London. \
Brighton & South Coast Railway the
regulations against amoktag were !
3rictly enforced. The Mechanlos'
agaslne of September, 1842, records
tftat "a foreign gentleman was re
cently smoking a cigar in a train com>
lag from Brighton to London. The
guard warned him the practice waa
not allowed. Nevertheless, he eontin*
tied to smoke, and finished his cigar.
At the next station he waa aaked for
his ticket and .ordered out of the
coupe; and the guard, addreaslng one
of the officers on the platform, warned
him that that person waa not to be
allowed to proceed to London by any j
train that night. So there he waa
left,'* ? London Chronicle.
