they knew his honesty and his gentleness, and predicted for him, by way of jest, that he might become a dancing master, for he always seemed to be carrying one lady's coat, chatting with a second, or lighting a third's cigarette. When Amal married him, they said he was a man of shallow thinking; but they were obliged to change their tune when he began to rise in his post, and the matter grew more baffling still when he became a governor and then an ambassador. The other remained rough — indeed everyone was thunderstruck, except Amal, when the news spread of his embezzling his partner's money.

True humanity is strong morals, self-denial, and readiness for responsibility; with these a person cannot help but be kind and cour-teous, for this is not something he must force himself to learn! The astonishing thing about our age is that many have been so deceived by appearances that they have come to believe that noise and roughness are humanity itself!

The philosophy of morals began at the dawn of civilization, and in the Middle Ages people crowded to sip of it, paying the heaviest prices to obtain this precious ware. The man of today pays the price of a private automobile and of the mechanical novelties of amuse-ment, and yet he has not reached the inner calm and stability he seeks. This comes of his neglecting the culture of his own soul, for money buys only the material components of the individual's life. Why, then, do we not strive to absorb what the thinkers have stored up for us — the distillations of their pains through generation after generation! The chaos in the soul of today's man begins in the stage of childhood; and once a person grows accustomed to good morals and good conduct, these become as natural to him as eating, drinking, and breathing.

And Good Housekeeping magazine lays a valuable task upon your shoulders: you are the housewife and the mother of the nation, so begin the happiness of the world by kindling the first ember in

your own home. When you and your husband decide to undertake a new project, come forward into it with your thinking, and fight the material obstacles at his side with cheerfulness and dash, never forgetting self-denial. And if you sense his irritation at waiting for you to dress, and you fling at him the words "You are impatient!" — you have given him a name; and the strange thing is that whatever is named actually begins to prove its own existence. Let him feel that only this once is he impatient, and that it is not his nature. Dealing with an angry man calls for good judgment and hardiness; and it likewise rests with you to simplify life and to lift all formality between

you when the two of you are alone. Surprise him always with new information from your own delv-ing, for this raises you in his eyes. And among the essential condi-tions for preserving your relation-ship are the keeping of time and precision in meeting appointments: however much he may admire the mystery of your personality, he will not forgive you a single lateness to a fixed appointment!

From the outpourings of their pens and the distillations of their studies I have summed all this up for you. And now — do you not agree with me, Madam, that knowledge without work is like bees without honey?...
