You may possibly have heard of the
man who late in life was forced by
Illness to put aside for a season his
busy care* and really get. acquainted
with the members of his own family,
little by little various things Impress
ed him which ho had never thought of
before. And finally one day in the
presence of hi wife and grown-up
children he asked these questions: “la
It really true that all these years you
have been keeping things from me,
afraid to mention this or that topic In
my presence, because you were cer
tain I would not understand, but
would fly Into a passion and say dis
agreeable things? I believe 1 have
passed among my neighbors as a
fairly good sort of father, and I cer
tiiinly have considered myself quite
above reproach, but. now It seems to
he dawning upon me that I don't real
ly know my family at all. Have you
honestly been afraid of me all these
years and never ventured to speak of
the thingH that were nearest your
heart, because you knew that 1 al
ways came home tired or excited or
depressed by business cares, and was
likely to roughly rebuke anyone who
ventured to distract me with subjects
that I had not Introduced myself?" It
was a very much abashes and nerv
ovs group of people who had to admit
ever so reluctantly that It was true
that they had always studied to keep
themselves so perfectly In hand when
their father returned to his home at
night, that nothing should ever cross
him or stimulate an outburst of ex
cited and unsympathetic, If not real
ly 111-natured, remarks. We are told
that the man sadly turned his face to
the wall and with a great cry of pain,
with that muoh power. For you can use tho power
In other ways than getting speed—on hllla, on

THE AUGUSTA HEAAJUD
groaned, "Then my life has all been
a failure and a mistake," and present
ly breathed his last.
Thi3 is doubtless a most unusual
picture. But while lam willing to
admit that fact, I am not so sure that
it is not one of the most pitiful evils
of this time, that heads of families
take far too little pains to enter Into
the living interests of the wife and
children at home.
Sometimes the father will plan for
himself an evening when all outside
cares being dismissed he will enjoy
himself without Interruption In the
bosom of his family. He will look '
forward to it, and count upon It, and ;
come home bent on having the hap
piest kind of a time. Perhaps for
weeks or months he has been too pre
occupied with business cares or out- I
side engagements to be able to spend
with his wife and family even a few
minutes around the evening lamp. But
he has forgotten this, in the prospect
of the pleasure he has in store. His
wife, too, is looking forward to the
evening. There are cares and trou
bles which she has borne alone for
many long weeks, watching the hus
band’s face with scrutinizing care
each evening, to see if she might
venture to intrude her little troubles
into his great sea of care; never ven
turing to do It, but preferring to bear
her burden alone. In the hope of thus
being able to lighten her husband's
load. Tonight is to he her oppor
tunity. And after the evening meal
Is over and the children have turned
to their lessons or been sent off to
bed, her heart is full of the antici
pated Joy of having at last a real
heart-to-heart talk with the one she
loves better than life itself. But this
is not what the husband had been
looking for. The discovery that he
has only entered upon a new sea of
difficulties Is most distasteful to him
arid the tender advances of his hun
gry helpmeet are rudely repulsed.
Then she in turn is disappointed and
doubtless half ready to cry. But
she puts on a bold front by assuming
a chilly indifference to the matters
her husband has at heart, and he feels
that his cup Is quite full. Nobody
understands him. The home is the
last place where he meets with sym
pathy; his wife is the most selfish be
nlg he has ever met; and he soon
makes it evident that he considers
himself a much-abused and injured In
dividual. The disappointment is felt
infinitely more keenly by his sensi
tive better half, and she begins to
speak in an excited and nervous man
ner, that soon results in an angry con
versation, when many bitter things
are said. The denouement tak'<» a
different form In different cases.
Sometimes the evening is brought to
a close by a thundering blow on the
table from the fist of the lord of
creation, who "won't be argued with
in his own house." Sometimes the
delicate lady develops a power of ar
gument that puts her devoted spouse
in anything but an enviable light or
comfortable condition of mind and with
her "last worn ’ ringing In his ears,
the gentleman takes refuge with what
grace he may In the retirement of his
comfortable club or the come: sa
loon. It breaks one’s heart to think
of the children! Put which way will
tou turn, my friend, and not be stirr
ed to pity? Father, mother, sons and
daughters, all with a great capacity
for happiness and really bound to
gether by strong bonds of mutual
love, and all of them really starving
for something that seemed just wlta
in their grasp!
It Is usual to think of family rows
as proceeding from serious sins on
the one hand or the other, but I think
we all do well to realize that it Is
selfishness which really contains with
in itself the essence of all sins, and we
cannot go on living wholly to our
selves for days and weeks and
months, and then think that we cun
suddenly blossom out Into sweet per
sonifications of unselfishness and ex
pect to be comprehended by even
our dearest friends. It is selfish for
a man to drink to excess and come
home to rage like a furious beast. It
is selfish for a man to indulge him
self in any unlawful passion that may
bring grief and distress to his home.
But It is also selfish and sinful to
live without trying to be Interested
in what Interests those we love, with
out making the effort to learn hy
earnest effort of the mind to look at
things from the other's point of view.
To strive with some of that strong,
masterful determination in which wa
pride ourselves so much, as the
source of our success in dealing with
others in business, to win a victory
over ourselves and learn that the pre
cis* spot from which w # have grown
accustomed to look at life is not ne
cessarily the best nor the only point
of view.
I am quite well aware that some of
my readers. If they have had the pa
tience to follow me thus far, may he
tempted to say that all this business
like regulation of one's attitude to
wards the members of his own famllv
Is wholly unnecessary If the heart
be really filled with love. Ah, that
is true! The duty to love God Is as
suredly the first and great command
ment, and the second is like unto It,
"Thou shall love thy neighbor as thy
self." But many people, I fear, who
think themselves quite above break
ing any of the commandments, don't
take the pains to give their love that
practical expression, either at home
or in the world. Which would prove
it to be the real and genuine thing
Let me close by saying, that should
you ever have a quarrel with your
wife, 1 would humbly suggest that
.Her telling her in most unequivocal
terms that you are sincerely sorry sot
whatsoever share you may have had
in causing her tears to flow, you will

most prosaic and business-like sash

life from your help meet's point of
view. The unselfish and thoughtful
husband may sometimes, hut really
\er> seldom, have a serious quarrel
with his wife.
