oO u eo be en WE RSA e at once and—James, it does seem to me that if you had the respect for your wife a husband should have you would not grin when her maid is im- pertinent and—however, we will let that pass, for I want to tell you that funny little story. “It was about a man who had a wife whose tongue ran all of the time and —will you explain why you butt in with such a coarse expression as ‘poor devil!’ right before the children? One can sympathize with a man in that position without using the language of the low to express one’s sympathy; and how are we to keep our children from using coarse language if we, their own parents, use such language? A lady told me to-day of a book called the ‘Psychology of Childhood,’ that ex- plains all about the influence of the conduct of parents on their children, especially what is called pre-natal in-| fluence, which, I daresay, includes the way parents talk before their children and act before them an—why that coarse snort of laughter? You never stop to consider that you may be exert- ing a low influence over your children and teaching them to disrespect their mother by laughing at her right before them and—children, you may leave the table and I will send your dessert up to the sitting-room for you. Run right along! I do think, James, that things have come toa pretty pass when our children have to be sent from the table to keep them from hearing their father insult their mother at the very time when she is trying to get him to exert a good influence over them, and —in the name of reason why should | you screech and laugh like that?

Douglas Shoe Co., 145 Spark St., Brockton, Mase, I see very clearly that it is of no use for me to try to tell any kind of a funny story to a man roaring and laughing over nothing. You probably wouldn't think it was funny, anyhow. You never see anything funny in the things that I think are deliciously amusing. Your taste runs along the line of the low comedian of the movies and the circus clown; and I don't wonder, for I have heard your own mother tell about how she used to take you to every circus that came along when you were a boy and to all of the side- shows. That was her way of exercising a good pre-natal in- fluence over her children and— well, I would grab up my des- sert and go upstairs and eat it with the children if I were you, but if—hear that simpleton laughing while he runs up the stairs!
