Family life should be one of the utmost deference and respect. It is a peculiar p of human nature that we are oer more considerate of strangers than we are of those 1rho in the very nature of things are merest and dearest to us. Why should we fret and find iault until we make home life intolerable? Why should we carry a grouch into our homes every time we leave "busi nees?" Why should . we demand services of those in the home circle which we only request in the most respectfl manner from those out ide of it? Why should a man say to his wife "May, I want my slippen. Bring them to me" and use a tone of command when he knows he wouldn't address the veriest lackey in a similar manner? Why should May ~rS an iritating, commanding toe toward John when s.he want. any little service done and why do beth order the children around as if they were a lotof uanteeling, un thinking lttle minions who knew no better than to asept the treatment without pr6test? Of all places on earth the home Is the place. where the best and sweet sat side of eharacter should be howm. Ir s there that the softest umtones and kindest actions should p-vail. It is there that unmailing and unitrm eourtesy should be the rule sad where every member should hee his ohr uer atmost efort to keep the family life antainted by the irri tating eperiemnces of the life outside of it. OMt A DANGEROUS PLACE. A manm who, despite the fact that he has several grandchildren, is still faod of his elub and the pleasures which lie beyond the domestic cirele siid in. defedne of his weakness that hevitofut to prolong his life "and ti a dangers." "According to S'ible ~ecently published by an c. t luatip m company," he said, "more thanone-quarter of the saci liappe at home,'" and in -the statement he showed s record of accidents: : )om4*peroent. pedetrians, ;aotr % cs .; rertion, I w nd ehicle, 9.9; on ; railway trains, 4.8; m ro D I rr.it ` Vabe mn.
