A man says that women have not as nice a sense of honor as men. “Oh," exclaims the woman who re • jects everything that is said of her ! sex except that which is flattering, no matter whether it is all true or not. This woman lias been spoiled—yes, she has. She knows her little short comings and when she finds the stern er sex winking at them just because, poor fellows, they have been taught to believe this gallant —she just smiles at her reflection in the looking glass and nods to it and thinks, if she doesn't say it, “you are a clever little woman to get your own way as you always do.’’ The Man says that he bases his as sertion that women have not as nice a sense of honor as men on the fact that they' are willing to shut their eyes to a lot of little personal obliga tions, particularly in money matters, that should be promptly and squarely met. Since the Man has said this and therefore, somewhat disturbed my old-time notion that women are at all times honorable in all things, I have looked for the woman who shirks her obligations, and thinks she has a right to, and— I have found her. This woman that I have discovered throws bills, when they come, into the corner of her desk and there they lie—well, until she is forced to look into the envelopes, find out which is which, and pay them. Now, do not think that this woman is foolishly ex travagant or purposely dishonorable. She simply does not acknowledge the fact, if she thinks of it at all, that the shopkeeper must pay his bills or go out of business, that he may spend sleepless nights because folks do not pay him, and so he cannot meet the demands for rent, and supplies and all the rest. This woman that I know, and perhaps you know her quite as well as I do, being in com fortable circumstances, keeping up a well-appointed home, and all that sort of thing, is regarded by the shop keepers as a desirable patron, and one that they do not care to trouble too much about the prompt settle ment of accounts for fear of losing hers and others’ patronage. Then there is the dressmaker, and the laundress and others, who toil for lit.tle and know before that little is earned just how it must be spent, and these are often neglected. It.is not meant by the woman who puts ofl the settlement of their bills to defraud them. 1 tear me, no! She just waits until it suits her conven ience to pay them, and often, you know, she will wax quite indignant wi en a modest request comes that the bill be paid because the work woman is in need of her hire. Maybe the little seamstress has busily stitch ed on a ruffled frock all week with the thought that when it was deliver ed Friday night she would collect her money, invest at least a part of it Sat urday in a bewitching little hat and go on that delightful outing that she had promised herself for a long while. Without the new hat she would not be able to go, for the bit of straw and flowers she bought early in the spring by summer’s end is sadly faded. The woman receives' her beruftled dress on Friday, as the little seamstress agreed she should, so that she might wear it to a lawn fete Saturday, and sends word that she will be “sure to settle for it Monday.” Monday comes and she forgets about the bill. The little seamstress knows the woman has several more frocks to be made, and consequently hesitates to ask for the dollars that are due her. Now, it doesn't matter in the least whether a man is as prone to neglect his tailor bills. lam not trying to prove that men are more honorable than women. Simply because a man has said they are not as honorable has put me to spying out the little things that have given rise to his sus picions. There is a good old rule that many i a house keeping and home-making woman sticks faithfully to, and it is that nothing is ordered until there is ; a certainty that it can be paid for | with exact promptitude. A woman i who sticks to this rule, and teaches her daughters to do the same, has . missed many a shoal in her domestic J sea, has gained her husband s confi dence in household ironey matters, Be Careful No woman can be too careful of her condition during the period be fore her little ones are born. Neglect or improper treatment then endan gers her life and that of the child. It lies with her whether she shall suffer unnecessarily, or whether the ordeal shall bo made comparatively easy. She had better' do nothing than do something wrong. MOTHER’S FRIEND is the one and the only preparation that is safe to use. It is a liniment that penetrates from the outside. External applications are eternally right. Internal medicines are xadi cally wrong. They are more than humbugs—they endanger life. Mother's Friend helps the muscles to relax and expand naturally—re lieves morning sickness—removes the cause of nervousness and head ache— prevents hard and rising breasts —shortens labor and lessens the pains—and helps the patient to rapid recovery.
