Unless You Are An Expert, Don’t Attempt to Keep Your Husband Dangling at Your Side by Keeping Him in a Jealous State of Mind

Catching a husband is a comparatively easy matter. Holding him is an entuely different proposition. Hence the l'IlB_l0r activity of most mar- ried women's lives is trying to keep their husbands in love with them and

They are win that to keep them- selves glamorous in their husbands eyes they mu t reinaln loreyer young and slim and beautiful. wh.ch. in nature. can't be done. They are ad. mcnished that the way to keep a husband home cf evenings is to put on a perpetual one-woman vau- deville stunt and be so interesting and amusing that he will never stray from his own fireside fcr entertainment. And that. 100. calls for .~uperhuman gifts in a woman who has wrestled all day with a bulky cook stove and a cryliiu baby and Lrymg to make one dollar do the work of five.

He had taken her in his arms and kissed her . .

_Unobserved. Dorothy Ellinglon slipped swiftly away into the dank- ness.

Gently but firmly. Florence re- leased herself.

"I'm sorry!" said Frank awkward- ly. "Florence, I'm a cad! I apologise!

"Don't be an ass." said Florence cheerfully. "It was very sweet. of you. Thank you very much."

She smiled at him reassuringl.v— the old smile of comradeship.

"A girl likes to be kissed on oc- casion by a really nice young man- and ou are thoroughly nice. Frank! Besi es, the voyage is nearly over. and I was rather oping you'd do it before we parted.

If Rupert had come aboard carry- ing flowers.

But Rupert had come aboard with part of an apeman's skull tucked under his arm. . . .

_. Of course she was being unfair. A "month ago, she would have exulted, that he was not as other men. She would have praised his detachment his loyalty to h's work. his disdain of romantic notions and idiotic rub- bish of that kind. No, it was not Rupert who had changed. It was. she _who had changed.
