POISON UY MISTAKE
Almost every day the newspapers
give accounts of someone taking poi
son by mistake. The average person
reads the news of the untimely death
and if it makes any impression at all,
there is a mental note, “How fpolish”
or something of the sort, and it is dis
missed from the mind.
But the same fate awaits most peo
ple, if they do not profit by the lesson
that such accidents teach.
same thing is true of\i particularly
good banker, reporter, preaoher, law
yer, mechanic. It is a natural tenden
cy; the invariable rule. But the best
women remain in the country com
munities. And the best women origi
nate in the country communities; it is
{ here they are most natural and wom-
inly. Young/men in the city make a
mistake if they do not seek wives in
the country. — From Ed Howe’s
