Does ifosst teiband _ tefei totiouasM* wife*? V CU -O' *jyi/vd> 4 <r/v 2* f <€U j* at at* (Extract from a letter of a worldly father to his son). P LECTROLUX is the very JCj latest thing in electrical cleaning— You can buy it for a few shillings per week. It costs less than fcL hour to run. an It will clean carpets, curtains and upholstery: it will do all the dusting in the house: it will clean walls, ceilings and floors. It is so simple that a child can use it. It is so strongly and carefully built that it will not get out of order. Yet it is light and compact that it requires no effort on your part. 'J'HERE used to be a stage in every married life when the man started referring to the lady of his choice as “the wife.” “the wife,” if you please. Now. this is what makes a man adopt this sort of casual reference he is “getting used to” his wife he is beginning to ‘take her for granted.’ He is losing the honeymoon point of view. The Cause ? Well after a morning of dusting, sweeping, and scrubbing you are not quite the little fairy he used to rave over you are not quite the delightful girl he used to pursue. Your hands are possibly a wee bit rough; your nails may be advertising your tussle with the draw-ing-room carpet. Unfair ? Perhaps it is but it is human nature: and all the protest in the world won’t alter it. But you can checkmate this masculine unreasonableness. You can do your work more thoroughly, twice as quickly, and without expending any more energy than is required to take a walk through your house.

i A lesson for women from the world of business I?VERY year in business, men take stock; compute profit and loss; decide on new policies. A case where women can profit by close imitation. For women's business, the most responsible in the world, is the one of controlling their welfare, and that of their families. Every woman should periodically take stock of her health her family’s health. The average woman pays strict regard to the laws of health; knows the need of fresh air, of regular exercise, but seldom realizes the necessity of breaking away from harmful stimulants. Coffee and tea contain stimulants. The average cup of coffee has U to 3 grains of the drug stimulant, caf fein in its make-up. Caffein means ragged nerves, sleepless nights, headaches, and other ills. These automatically follow on the temporary artificial relief and stimulation.
