The Habit
Wlfh the coming of hot weather the
grumbler comes Into his own. Grumbling
is as Insidious as lnfluenaa, and as In
fectious. A woman will walk out In the
morning strong and happy, ready to do
her share of ths world s work, and per
haps a fsw yards from her own doorstep
will meet some other woman who Is
grumbling so badlv as to be heard across
tha street "It'a going to be hotter than
ever," the stricken one will explain Indig
nantly, "Isn't it unbearable?"
If the first woman Is susceptible, this Is
enough. Grumbling will break out on her
Instantly. For hours to come she will hate
the beauty of the day and infect all who
come In contact with her.
Pome women grumble because their holi
days are over; others grumble because
they Tiave not yet arrived; but the most
Insistent form of the grumbler is the
Woman who laments against the hot
weather. She complains against her food,
her clothes, her work.
It would drive mewt women near to
argue with grumblers strict solatlon Is
their only hope and ours so thst it is of no
use protesting. Ws caa only keep cool by
walking In our own way.
It 'would drive most mo wen near to
apoplexy to change the 'routine of their
dally lives; most housewives would be
much more upset by the thought that their
