Mrs. Lynn Linton is advising English women not to be too much with their husbands. She-says: ‘“‘Nothing, indeed, is better than a little absence when friction or satiety begins. Many a marriage might be saved to happiness and the shipwreck prevented if the jarring pair would con: sent to separate for awhile, till the last echo of the discordant note had died away and the strings were left free for harmony. So with satiety. “Some natures grow tired of the constant repetition of the same ways, the same -voice, the same face. The heart may be ds true as the heedle to the.pole, but the nerves are irritable, and change is necessary for the eye. The wise see this and seize the ‘psychologic moment’” to propose a little outing, a little absence, which shall break up that filmy crust of onstealing ice and make the cooling heart grow fonder. They stub up the ugly little weed. before it has time'te establish its roota. With a well timed ‘trest’” they save the air from monotony arid the players from fatigne. Then, so far from being in the wrong, the absest grow to be wholly in the right.

The danger .of that rift has passed. The sore of that friction, just beginning to be chronit, is fealed. The sickness bred of satiety is stopped, and the wise medicine,of temporary separation has saved the situation. It is a concession to and an acknowledgment of the weak ness of human nature, and the wisest men and women are those who do:so confess and concede and do not burke the facts as they are. And those do best in life who understand the sigus betimes and seize that forelock ere it bas passed.

Mrs. Lynn Linton is advising English women not to be too much with their husbands. She-says: ‘“‘Nothing, indeed, is better than a little absence when friction or satiety begins. Many a marriage might be saved to happiness and the shipwreck prevented if the jarring pair would con: sent to separate for awhile, till the last echo of the discordant note had died away and the strings were left free for harmony. So with satiety. “Some natures grow tired of the constant repetition of the same ways, the same -voice, the same face. The heart may be ds true as the heedle to the.pole, but the nerves are irritable, and change is necessary for the eye. The wise see this and seize the ‘psychologic moment’” to propose a little outing, a little absence, which shall break up that filmy crust of onstealing ice and make the cooling heart grow fonder. They stub up the ugly little weed. before it has time'te establish its roota. With a well timed ‘trest’” they save the air from monotony arid the players from fatigne. Then, so far from being in the wrong, the absest grow to be wholly in the right.

The danger .of that rift has passed. The sore of that friction, just beginning to be chronit, is fealed. The sickness bred of satiety is stopped, and the wise medicine,of temporary separation has saved the situation. It is a concession to and an acknowledgment of the weak ness of human nature, and the wisest men and women are those who do:so confess and concede and do not burke the facts as they are. And those do best in life who understand the sigus betimes and seize that forelock ere it bas passed.
