3a in the columns of ‘My Queen,’ which I have en- joyed reading ever so much, that I know you will not mind answering one little question for me. I have a very dear friend who wants to give me a diamond ring. Iam not engaged to him, but he is the best friend Iever had. He knows I long for a ring and wants to give me one just to please me. Iam not sure that he can really afford to do it. Now, ought I to accept it or not? I know he will be hurt if I refuse. ADDI..." There is really no more harm in your accepting a diamond ring than in your accepting a box of candy if they are tendered in the same spirit. Every one likes to please their friends, and that is probably the only motive that your friend has. If he cannot afford the gift, that puts an en- tirely different face on the matter. We do not think that a woman has any right to accept from aimanapresent that he cannot afford to make. You should certainly not accept so costly a pres- ent if its presentation means self-denial and dis- comfort on the part of the giver. “T amayoung married woman, and my hus- band says I am no good because my health is poor and [insist upon keeping a servant. Imake all my own clothes and the baby’s, also. Is this not enough for one woman to do, besides helping the hired girl a great deal with the housework? “NERS, It is, indeed, quite enough! If you are in poor health it is almost more than you should do to eare for a baby, and your husband, instead of scolding, should hire a nurse for you. It is a great pity that such husbands as yours could not have a taste of ill-health themselves. Perhaps if they did they would be more considerate. All you can do is to reason with your husband. If he will not listen to reason, we are, indeed, sorry for you.
