N. SIMPSON, Jr. Talk It Over With Your Wife There are thousands ot families homeless, or living in poverty and wretchedness to-day, who could have been living in comfort, in gtod Domes, it ineir husbands baa con fided their business affairs to their wives. Women aie very much better judges of human nature than men. 1 hey can detect rascality, deception and insincerity more quickly. I know business men who would never think of employing a mana ger or suierintendent, or a man for any other important position, or of choosing a partner, without manag ing in some way to have their wives meet the man and get a chance to estimate him, to read him. They invite the man, whom they are con sidering for an important position to their homes for dinner, or to siend a Sunday, before deciding. Thev want the advantage of that marvel ous feminine instinct which goes so directly and unerringly to its mark. 1 have known several instances where a wife had cautioned her hus band against having anything to do with a man with whom he was thinking of going into business, but the husband ignored the wife's opin ion as silly, and disregarded her ad vice to his great sorrow later, as the man turned out exactly as the wife bad predicted. If you are considering taking any great risk on an investment, if you are in doybt as to whether you can quite afford a certain thing or not, talk it over with your wife. How many men who have made a failure of life wish they had talked their anairs over with their wives! Many men think that because their wives have never had any experi ence in business that it would be foolish fur them to talk business mat ters over with them. But, no matter how much experience you may have had, no matter what a great brain you may havo, you need the swift ness and the accuracy of woman s instinct to keep you from making fixilish investments, from making al liance with bad men. and from fool ish things generally.

He did it, we are told, to justify himself. But, be that as it may, the question evoked an auswer that is one of the priceless gems of the Christian re ligion aud has been a blessing to many. And I for one favor giving that lawyer credit in this world for what be said, since the record is silent aa to what became of him after death. Since his time the secrets of na ture have been divulged and her forces made the servants of man. The multiplied uses of these forces have removed the barriers of dis tance aud time and drawn all peo ples nearer together. The increase iu travel, the extension of com ruerce aud the spread of the gospel have brought all nations into closer relationship with each other. Along with these things has come an in creased desire in our couutry to know more of our neighbors across the sea. There has been, it is true, no lack of letters and books writteu by travellers on this side of the water most of them devoted to natural scenery, works or art and ancient ruius. The real life of the people how they live and how they make a living has received scaut atten tion. The reason of this is not so obvious to the readers as it is to the writers of the letters aud books. It goes back to Babel when the Lord confused the tongues of those who attempted to euter heaven by the tower route. The puuisbtuent mulcted for that conduct was a keen one, and is still visited upou the descendants of those who took part in that folly. And while the ancestors of the Euglish speaking people, in my optuion, bad noth ing to do with that tower affair, yet the momeut we get among the real descendants of those old sin ners we must share iu the punish ment It is but natural, therefore, that English and American travel lers should turn away from the con fused jargon aud jabber and write merely of what they see. To go uuder the surface for facts from and about people of a different tOJueue is.. no Mr,niittAruiuik-y and many ludicrous mistakes. Those who have travelled aoroaa have learned that their friends at home often waut information about the most common matters. Even the most learned acquaintances ask the most questions about the sim ple, every day life of the people over here, aud especially in regard to the way an American gets along among people of whose language he is iirnoraut. The letters wniun I shall write will be in the form of running narrative of incidents, observations aud such facts as I may blunder npon. In all letters of travel reference to the writer is necessarily frequent, but the intel ligent reader will know that such is not always the product or vanity but iu order to give a concrete story of travel. Equipment for Travel. Naturally money is thought of first But that should give no con cern, as foreigners don't want oor money. When I left New York I had only M.25 in my pocket and the expenses of two must be paid in three continents. You see the lack of money need not cause Americans to deny themselves the treasures of nice trips to the old countries. You might bring along a mint of cash and it would be no irood except at the banks where the ve ow metal is "worm us weight in gold." But, while you need brine no money, yon must briug "something equally as good." That you may do by buying a let ter of credit at the larger banks, travellers checks of express com panies or other forms of paper, if you travel in uussiaor xuraey, or their dependencies, a passport is necessary. Aoue is required lor a woman she is not supposed to be au anarchist or bomb thrower. The passport must be approved by the Consul Generals for Kussia and Turkey. Before getting a passport vou must take and subecnlw tbe oath of allegiance. And when yon easygoing native American, and swear that you will be true to I nele acquaintance were not so readily Sam, he engage on his part to be' made. National elanuinhoese in true to yon. Behind that simple 'sorted itself aud those of the same locomeut is the entire army aud countries soon flocked together, navy of the United States, and! All hands tried to deceive theni aberever I may ramble I shall selves into believing that they were know that that same army and navy having a good time. fcvery pas are pledges for my safety and pro tection. In tbe palmy days of Rome, when her dominion exteuded from the Atlantic to the Euphrates nd from tbe Klune and Danube to the Afri ran deserts, it was esteemed a great privilege to be able to boast, "I am a Soman." But prouder still, and Deaning much more, is the right to say. "I am au American citizen." Jto other voucher is necessary in truer to travel anywhere. But ex perience bad taught me the ueed of something more. For this trip I was given a letter of introduction by the Governor, a ho also wrote Mr. ItooM-velt in my behalf, and the President mailed him the fol lowing letter, which will be of great help to me: "Department of State, "Washington. Oct 23, liWfi. To the Diplomatic and Consular (Jlfi cent of the United States: "(jentlemen: At the instance of the President, I take pleasure in introduce in? to you the Honorable A. M. Stack, of Monroe, North Carolina, who is about to proceed abroad. accomanied by his wife. 1 cordially bespeak for them such courtesies and assistance as you may be able to render, consistently with your official duties. 1 am, gentlemen. "Your obedient servant, "Euhu Root. As we are to travel in countries under the civil control and relig ious influence of the Sultan of Tur key (who is the head of tbe great Mohammedan religion), a word from him would be of infinite ad vantage. Governor Glenn was kind enough to call with me at the State Department and request the Secre tary to use bis intlueuce iu trying to get for me a nriuau from Cou stantinople. The Secretary wrote a most cordial letter to our Ambas sador there, Mr. Leishnian, askiug him to procure, if possible, a docu ment that would so accredit me as to be able to talk with oflicial and professional nieu iu Turkey aud her dependencies. The Departure. Tbe Kaiser Wilheliu II. was scheduled to sail at 9 o'clock a. m., but was delayed some by reason ol the large quantity of mail aud truuks, which are loaded on the ship by steam. For some time prior to starting the scene was an inter esting one. Everything was motion and hustle. The din of machinery, rtJHpecu tjuauusio uu uAijaduut of nationalities made confusion worse confounded. All classes and conditions were hurrying ou board, from Frank J. Gould with bis valet and Mrs. Gould with her maid pass- ine up one gang way, to the greasy Sheenev without a valet and his ugly wife doing tbe maid stunt lor herself going up another to the steerage. The uuuiber of passen gers on board amounted to some 1,200, of whom 800 were stored away in tbe steerage like sardines. The crew consisted of GOO men and a few women in all over 1,800 per sons. When all were on, the great engines began to move, the brass baud played a lively air and nun drens of visitors on the pier waived hats, handkerchiefs and American flam at tbeir departing menus. Our vessel steamed down tue Iludson, through the bay into the open sea, pointed its prow to the northeast and started on its long iournev. Of course, every true American gazed at the receuing land until it faded out of vision And it is a solemn moment indeed, when tbe land we love and that contains all that is near and dear to us on earth goes down behind the horizon. For whether we shall ever see it again is known only to Him who holds the seas in tbe hol low of his hand and who takes knowledge of even the sparrow's fall. We next began to take our bear ings aud adjust ourselves to new surroundings. Just how soon we night make a lunch for some hor rible monster under the water we didn't know. We remembered Jonah but we could not expect his good luck. We mentally de bated our readiness to go and which way. Lite on the Ocean Wave.

AND 91.00. senger eugaged in some sort of amusement The principal pas times were cards, domiuoea aud vomiting. The fare wu all that could be desired. The German considers the stomach the seat of happiness, and he gives it special atteution. The bell rang regularly four times a day for us to eat, aud betweeu meals they would bring around hot beef tea aud sandwiches. My ap petite had just reached the point where I was getting the worth of my money when, ou the second day, we encountered a rough sea. The ship took both the lateral aud forward dip. I saw nieu as trees walking. Everything was going the other way. If I attempted to enter my state room it would shy away; if 1 reached for a band rail ing it would dodge me; and when I would go down the stairs they were coming up. I went to pieces losing my appetite aud all that I had eaten. Near me were two very large people, mau and wife. He carried an enormous avoirdupois aud bad a fog horu voice. W believ er old Xeptuue made a severe de mand on him for tribute, the re spouse suggested Vesuvius in erup tion. Ilia sKiuse was a woman of anomalous proportions. Her hori zontal dimensions almost equaled her cneiidieHlar, aud whenever old Vesuvius would erupt, Aetua would answer him. Tbe horrible fuss made by these two people would have disturbed a corpse. Near me were also some very noisy childreu who, much to my regret, did not get sick at all. The German is very fond of drink. The steamer had three bars, one for each class of passengers, aud they seemed to do a big business. Ou Sunday they had a circus day trade. Sunday laws and grand uries have no terrors for these 'blind tigers" ou the high seas. The German is fond of music, and we had with us a brass baud and au orchextra. Tbe former played on deck in the day and the latter below in the eveuing. They played many Southern pieces, Dixie, Old Kentucky Home, Suwanee Kiver, etc. A collection is taken for the musicians. While the orchestra plays, most of the listeners drink beer, wine or champagne. The iimao iuii WUUI.I& .A-taevu nun the players hide several "schoon ers" of the fouming lager. The services of about six boys are re quired to bring drinks to the "morally stunted." Many German Americans on board were returning to the Father land ou a visit From appearances they had prospered iu our couutry and were "Hush" with money. They will remain over here from three to twelve mouths, tviuenuy they take no stock in Franklin's maxim "that bsh aud visitors smell n three days." One went to America in 1851 and had not been back since, lie was sixty days in crossing the ocean fifty-five years ago, but, with the 40,000 horse power or the Kaiser iineim u.t he came back in seven days. Dur ing those seven days he knew what was going on in other parts oi me world. News from America aud all over the world was received by wireless telegraphy aud posted daily. On the utner Mae. The distance from New York to Bremen is 3,582 miles. The chief scenery along the way is fog, water and sick folks. Hut you soon lor get all that when you get on land again. The custom house ollicials will make you forget that and many other things. All baggage must be oiened up and the contents ex h b ted. It took over two nours for the Germau oflicials to look at our socks and stockings. But the lover of fun is sure to be gratified on these occasions. One fellow had a bottle of liquor in his valise, but the tariff on it was so high that be declined to pay it The officer smashed the bottle to pieces against the stone wall. It was apparent from tbe painful expression on the travellers face that he believed in a low tariff. The first night in Northern Ger many furnished me a novel expert ence, nen lime to retire came, I started to turn down the cover There wasn't any. Two feather beds and a huge feather pillow tie tween them at one end were on the Itedstead, and nothing more. I was about to read the riot act to my landlord when I was informed that the top feather bed was the cover, Tbe idea of covering with a feather bed stunned me but I tried it When I retired I bad so many feathers on me that I felt like goose. Our German frieuds believe in giving information. One who understands their language can't get lost Everywhere are signs with hands or arrows pointing in the direction von should go. Some of these I could understand; most of them I could not One read as fol lows: "Hell Dunkel."

In ancient East bouses wen made with flat roofs, serving not only for shelter, but in that hot climate ful filling an important part of the do mestic life of the people. The home roof was not only the summer kitchen but the living-room as welL There, when the sun was sinking, callers were received and entertained. In the evening the family gathered upon it and sat looking over the battlements in converse, or lifting up tbe evening hymn UMher or listening to some story of tue past or word of instruction, and if the night was propitious, finding there rest in slumber. It was sometimes a convenient piace w reiuge. "it is better, stvs Solomon, "to dwell in a comer of housetop than with a brawling wo man in a wide bouse. Here, then was a ready retreat, when scolding words were poured out below, a sug gestion some modern homes might prom by. 1 here, with the ingath ering of the harvest or the reception of some special blessing, the thank ouering was rendered, and there they gathered oiten lor the marriage festival. This common use caused Moses to direct the building of a battlement to gird the roof, three and a half feet in height, lest some one acci dentally fall over and the house stained with blood. If the owner failed to make this defense, or per mitted it to fall into decay, he must take upon bis shoulders the respon sibility of whatever might happen. Thus the sacred ness of human life was recognized and the responsi bility which one owes to another. Nothing can be more important than the safeguarding the home, and never was it more than to-day. It is the home life which sweetens and sanctifies the national life. The stream made sweet by its fountain head will refresh the land through which it flows. Thus the home is the nation's safeguard and its most sacred possession. What protection can we throw about our homes, so that if any fall from thence into danger, ho must climb over the bat tlements that are high and strong. The first part of the battlement is high moral standard. This must be involved in the process that leads up to the establishment of the home. Reason, judgment, deliber ation, have nothing to do with many of our marriages. The practice of marrying in haste and of repenting at leisure is on the increase and is becoming one of our greatest evils. Vn majtiFinffii mam i ! K It tVin and upon lirin principle. One of the first necessity s in hu man life is to obey. Children who grow to manhood or womanhood thout having learned to accept the rightful authority of parents are a menace to the community. There are two classes of men one made by the age, the other made for the age. The former simply reflect the passions, sins and prejudices of their times. The other class is made up of dif ferent stuff. They go forth from homes with a high moral standard and stand uninfluenced by the sins of their ago. A second side of the battlement that incloses and protects the home is mutual helpfulness. Selfishness is a great dof'royer of home happi ness, and there are tew homes tnai are not touched by it. Few are the favored homes where all the mem bers work together in love and har mony. The true way of finding hap piness at home or abroad is for each one to strive to make others happy bv help and sympathy. ' Be kindly aftectioned one toward another" is the counsel of "scripture, and if thoughtful kindness is on all sides the household rules, the atmos phere will be sunny and clear. The third side mat goes to make the compact that sustains the home is love. It must be joined to authori tv or else authority and severity will become synonymous terms. To rule without love is to ruin. love and sentiment are almost lost in the sor did practicalness of this age. The mad rush for money has stilled tue songs of love and romance. It is no sin to be a rich man nor crime to be a poor one, but it is a sin to be a selfish man and a crime not to be a good one, and if a man has to sacrifice one thing to the other he had better sacrifice the business to the home than the home to the busi Milk.
