There's a little farm that nestles in the shadow of a hill;
It's a lonely spot in winter when the earth is while and still;
When the tempest makes your heart ache wiih its bitter, wailing sigh,
And the roads are all unbroken, and a storm is in the sky.
There's a rocky bit of pasture where the huckleberries grow;
It's miift nlnre in winier 'neath the ghostly sneet ot snow,
And the vines that twine iheir tendrils all about the stony wall
Are the wraiths of creeping woodbine lhat was scarlet in me tan.
There's a time I can remember at the twilight of the day.
When the shadows growing purple, look like forms mat Kiieei io puy,
When a little mother standing in the window siriKesa iigm,
And the lamp-shine glimmers golden all across the winter night.
There's a little farm thai nestles in the shadow of a hill,
And a group of memories haunt me-1 am sure they always will

And my heart is lonely, sometimes; for that linle farm is home !
1 . Thou shall not cause the
first quarrel, but, if unavoidable,
fight it through bravely. To he
victor in the first domestic quarrel
may have a tendency to elevaie
thee in thin husband's mind for all
future.
2. Thou shall not forget thai
thou hast married a man, not a
god. Therefore, be not surprised
by his frailties.
3. Thou shah not always talk
money to ihine husband. Rather
try to get along on the allowance
he makeih thee.
4. If thou considerest thine hus
band heartless, remember that,
verily, he haih a stomach. By
persistently appealing to In-, stom
ach with well-cooked meals, ihou
mayest, after all, touch his heart.
5. Once in a great while, but
not too often, thou shall let him
have the last word. It tickled him,
and wilt not do thee any harm.
6. Thou shalt read the whole
newsDaoers and magazines, not
merely the stories dealing with
scandal and society. Thine hus
band will be pleasantly surprised
io find, off and on, thai he can
talk on general topics, and even
on politics, with his wife.
7. Thou shall not be rude when
auarreline with thy husband. For
get not that at one time in thy life
thou didst consider him little short
of a demigod.
8. Thou shalt, from time to
time, allow thine husband to know
a little more than thyself, admit
ting lhat thou art not infallible all
through.
9. If thine husband is a smart
man, thou shalt be his friend; if he
is not, thou shalt be boih counsel
lor and friend to him.
10. Thou shall esteem thy hus
band's relatives, especially his
moiher. Remember that she loved
him long before thou didsi.
