COMMON SENSE ASA OURE-ALL.
"[BY DỔNGTHY DIX]
It is a strange thing how little common scase we bring to the solving of the spiritual problems of life.
Wo are practical enough about ordinary every day affairs. We use our minds in thinking out a direct and effective method of dealing with the difficulties that we encounter in the grocery, business, or our office jobs, or housekeeping. There is nothing that we are prouder of than our ability to capo with adverse circumstances, and turn defeat into victory in material affairs by the exercise of our intelligence. We deal sensibly enough with the things of our outer lives, but when we come to dealing with the things of the inner self -the things on which our real happiness depends-we take leave of all buman intelligence and not like idiots and imbeciles.

I could hear a gibe made to them, some witticism which caused a laugh Then someone else's guns to the a left opened fire as if they had seen some- thing worth shooting at, and quickly, too. In a low seconds I picked up the target, a blue-grey shadow advancing in apparent silence over the top of a orest some two thousand yards away.
I gave the order to join in the chorus of guns. The rounds were bursting beautifully, and I picked up the range quickly and well, but I noticed Boche shelle beginning to fall on and about the

Another place in which we show how little common sons we use in trying to solve a big problem is the way in which we ignore the fatal effects of dullness and monotony on the domestic morale.
It is a matter of common knowledge that no matter how picturesque or delightful a place may be, no matter how perfect its climate is, we weary of it after awhile, and get so that we enn soo none of its beauty. Also that no matter how intelli- gent, how amiable, how agreeable and charming a person may be, or how fond we may be of him or her, we get fed up of his or her society, and ho or she becomes an insufferable bore to us.
Matrimony does not change this patent truth. There is no couple in the world so devoted that they can endure being together continually, without getting deathly weary, and on each other's nerves. They inevitably reach the point where every mannerism,
