t e Domestic omen er ‘ av- ery,” the Married Woman Weeps Because She is Tied to a Family and the Spinster Mourns That She Has None

Women's chief vice is self-pity. Practically the entire sex is cursed the martyr complex. They are never so happy as when they are niserable, and there is nothing out oi which they get such a kick as 1'- going on a. jag of tears. When a fairy godmot-her drops her choicest gift in a girl baby's cradle she

that are otherwise inscrutable mysteries of fem- inine psychology. Most of all, it explains why men o‘ can never understand women because the whole trend of a man's mind is away from sadness and depression, while the woman goes out and borrows trouble if she hasn't any oi her own.

..____i. it _ A man pushes aside his worries and tries to ,. hi? forget them. A woman broods over hers and cod- dies them and makes the most of them. When death takes from a man one he loves he does not shroud himself in fun- eral black, nor spend his days in a darkened room nursing his grief, nor do his men friends augment his sorrow by pouring thcirs upon him until .tlie world Just seems a welter of woe. On the contrary, he knows that life belongs to the living and that no rivers of tears could bring his dear one back again, and so he goes out among cheerful people and tries to divert his thoughts m»... his grief.

But women consciously, or unconsciously, do everything possible to make more poignant their grief. They drape themselves in crepe. They shut out the sunshine from their houses. They refuse to go where they will hear laughter or see smiling faces. Their sister women come and

woman who has worn black for forty years and never "got ovcr" the death of some relative.

More than that, women esteem sadness a virtue in awoman. ‘they look askance upon‘ any woman who ls gay and lighthearted and who laughs out loud, and are sure that she is no better than she should be.

Now, as a matter of fact, women have no more troubles than men. Life is no more full of disappointments for women than it is for men. There are Just as manyunhappy married men as there are women. There are just as many fathers as there are mothers worrying over wayward children. But it is the women who are shedding most of the tears and doing most of the lamenting, and this is not because they are more sorely afflicted than men are, but because they are having the time of their lives indulging in their favorite indoor sport oi self-pity.

The real riddle oi the Sphinx that nobody could guess has always been why WIVES stand husbands who make their lives a hcll on earth to

All of us have some woman friend who comes to us and sobs out a piteous story of domestic misery. sometimes It is a. s’ :y of a. drunken husband who has dragged her and her children down into the gutter with him.

Seymour Hicks, the famous actor, is fond of telllnl:

Driving up to the theatre at which he was playing one night. h! found the house full, and a small crowd of people had been refused admission

The sight of the "house full" bgarda pleased him so much that he began to sing to ‘ imself. Then he heard a woman, obviously one of the disappointed ones, say in a stage whisper to her companion:

"Is that Seymour Hicks?"

"Yes."

"And is that the way he sings ln- side the theatre?"

“I expect so."

"Well, then," exclaimed m: other emphatically, “I'm Jolly glad we can't get in,"

From old London comes the story of a ivoman who was interested 1n a British loan. She presented herself to a teller-as the official is desig- nati-d in Csnada—of the Bank of England, and asked for information regarding the loan that was engag- ing public attention.

“Conversation or Confirmation?" queried the Teller.

"Young man, is this the Bank of England or the Church of Eng- land?" shot back the woman,

"Dolores, you don't mean . . .1" "I don't mean anything, my idiot, but that you are to go home and tie a wet towel about your head for the whole of the night. It's a wickedly long part. Eighty sides.

Gardiner. "But I heard the young- ster was a budding genius."

"He's rotten," said Dolores un- truthfully. “Carson thinks because he drops his aitches naturally, and turned up in ragged clothes with a dirty face that he's an artist. I'm in agony every scene I ploy with him."

"Hard luck," said Gardiner, beck- oning for his bill. “I'll be of! now to dig in for a night of earnest ea- deavour. I'll have the lines word perfect by to-morrow. Will you coach mc in the business, kind lady?"

"No, I won't. I don't want to be in_ this at all," returned Dolores. "I've given you the lines. The affair is in your hands ‘hereafter. And mind you don't call me. Dodo, or give any impression that I've known anything about the affair."

“I was christened "Discretion" when yct a babe," affirmed Gard- lncr solemnly. "Miss Monclair, shall you become to mo, or Madame. I kiss your hand in token oi farewell and deepest gratitude to Dodo, my own."

The hand he kissed at the door of the taxi smacked him lightly on one smooth-shavcn check, and Dol- ores leaned back with a satisfied smile.

Certainly I shairt have time to come back here to dress. I must go straight to the Countess! dinner party from the theatre. You must dress mc there," shc said.

She wrapped them with the necklace in a fold of tis- sue paper, and tossed them on to the dress in the suitcase. i

“Is it safe to leave them so, Madame?" said Francoise, as she saw the action. “Would it not be better to take Madame's Jewel case that has so good a lock? I could then keep the key." ,

"Nonsense, Francoise," returned Dolores. "Anyone could take Jewel case and all, couldn't they? Wrap- ped up so, they don't look like Jew- els at all, and can be hidden in the folds of my evening cloak. No one would think of looking for them. And you must keep careful watch while I am out of my dressing room during rehearsal."

"I fear, Madame," persisted the maid. "This so strange theatre, with workmen about. Will Madame not wear the necklace at least during rehearsal?"

"Don't be silly," retorted Dolores, sharply. "I can't wear an emerald necklace with a tailored costume. Hurry and strap up the case. I must be back at the theatre."
