THE COMPROMISE.
He Thought He Wat Firm and Knew
He Wat Considerate.
The young man bad entered that
mysterious realm called matrimony,
and as It was his first offense liis fa
ther was handing him some paternal
advice as to how he should treat the
young wife.
"When you hare any little differ
ences of opinion, my son," he said to
the boy. "if you can't persuade Mar
garet that you are right? and you prob
ably can't, for they arc all about alike
?you must compromise. Be tfrtn, yet
be considerate and compromise."
"Yes, father,'' replied tho son.
"X well remember a little experi
ence," and a reminiscent expression
came over the old man's face, "on the
very threshold of tho married life of
your mother and myself, and It was
the basis of all future disputes. It
was this way: I wanted to spend the
summer, our first vacation together. In
Maine, and your mother wanted to go
to Saratoga. That was thirty years
ago. But I shall never forget how firm
and yet bow considerate I was with
your mother and how we compromised,
avoiding all dispute. We stayed from
Saturday noon to Tuesday morning at
Bar Harbor, and then wo spent the
rest of the summer at Saratoga. Yes,
Indeed," tho old man added, with a
sigh, "that's the only way to deal with
a woman. You must be firm, but be
willing to compromise a little once In
awhile, as I have done with your moth
er."? Jfcw York Tribune.
