Many become jealous of a neighbor's prOSperity. and this will lead'to the unjustifiable and flighty ambition to rise to the same circle. The man or woman in pmr or med- ium circumstances cannot afford the homes. the comforts and luxuries of richer neighbors. and too often the attempt to do results in financial ruin. Love in a cottage is prefer- As to domestic jealousies. we haw little to say. Much of the trouble from this cause has little justifica- tion. and is too often the result of a diseased imagination. Where c011- ples are equally yoked tagelher and the union has been affected by prop- er and nocossarv ali'omlimm thorn it: [Kimestic troubles have many causes. most. of which might be avoided by the exercise of a little common sense. Amongst the causes are selfishness. jealousy and flighty ambitions on the part of man or wife. When two become one they should share the comforts of pros- perity as one. or hear the hardships of adversity. There may be cases where it is well for the woman to wear the hreeches. but it isn’t good taste or good judgment on her part to parade her authority. If the husâ€"t band have the better judgment and‘ control the business of the home. he should do it without. show. It is pitiful to see a woman who can‘t buy herself a pair of stockings with- out. the consent. of her lord and master. and the henpeeked husband who fears to call his soul his own without. his wife's consent is an equal object of. pity, and. we might add. also. an object. of contempt. When the two heeame one. they presumably heeame one on a lootingt of equality. and while it is well that a husbaml and his wife should ex~ change opinions on domestic matters and partirularly on matters of do- mestic expenditure. there seems no reasztm why one or other should 33- sume the position of “l'mss” and ex- port to be consulted on every move or turn. In most homes the man and wife work equally hard in their respective spheres. and any prutits that. may art-rue are the result of rombined and united ell‘orts. Why. then. should one or other he the big ehief in matters of exmmliture. and ignore the work of the other? There l should he a Common interest. and. for the boss to speak of things as “ours" and not “as “mine" wouhli make them no less valuable. Sol much for selfishness. ._._-....

As we are now, eVeerhing seems to he run down; them is. a general shabhiness. but this could all be remedied in time, and would be, with a little (to-oper- ation on the part of the citizens.

Others will do likewise; the thing is contagious. Start now. If too late for the planting of de- ciduous trees, it isn’t too late to paint up and clean up. It is a mat- ter of economy to use paint rather than allow a place to go into der‘ay. Save the surface and you save all 15 a true SIOgan. is timbers of all kinds are getting scarcer and more expensive, it behooves all to use pre- servatives of some kind and for wood there is nothing twitter than a good application of paint. To proâ€"I long the life of the material will in many cases be more than an oti'sct to the cost. Paint up and clean up; save the. surface and you save all. NEEDED IIPBOVEIENTS- Earlier in the season we advocat- ed tree planting, but apparently only a small. number have acted on the suggestion. We regret that a more {general interest 15 not. taken in this excellent method of town adornment. The. town needs all the improve-J ments we can give it, but for some reason or other the prOperty owners. in too many cases are lacking in the esthetic qualities that make for at- tractiveness. It is not yet, too late? to plant certain kinds of trees. Ev-l ergreens of all kinds may be planted at almost any time during the sum- mer or fall and will succeed with prOper attention. The home and its surroundings are all the butter for the little adornments that make some homes so attractive and inâ€" viting. The home proper may not be costly. but with the esthetic touches by way of shruhbery and trees there will he added charms at very little cost_ or labor.
