'One of tho mistakes of women," said a woman lecturer the other day, "is in loving too much; they can never make a mistake in loving, but they ought to be cureful In picking out the man; they are apt to do it on the grab-bug prin ciple. Another of the mistakes of women Is not knowing how to rest, and still another is not knowing how to eat. Wtat women don't kuow about this has built ten thousand hospitals. Consider the ways of man and be wise. Women worry too much, they are misers to jollity and they nearly always die IcaV' lng a large account In the Bank of Mer riment. Women not only cross bridge before they come to them, but are gift ed bridge builders. Mcji can stop In the midst of perplexities and have 'guffaw.' It is this faculty that keepi them young. Women cannot, and that' why they fade earlier. Worry not only wrinkles the face, but It wrinkle and withers the mind a well. Some women make the mistake of thinking that they are jealous of their husbands, when, as matter of fact, they are simply selfish. Tbey seem to think that If a poor man's eye or feet stray his heart has gone. A women arrogates a good deal to herself when she think she Is going to be the whole world to man twenty-four hours a day, year in and out. If instead, wives would keep their eye and heart alert to see that love did not get away, there would bo less domestic friction." rtting Words. 7b 7iVi'.
