Woman Need But Resist Husband To Get Fair Treatment

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: What are the duties of a wife? l have

y“ married for 20 years to a man who insists that it is the duty of a fa to be a slave to him: to prepare his food and serve it. piping hot. no Enter how late he comes home nights; to take caret of his clothes and

ave them always freshly pressed: to wait, on him hand and foot. even taking the car to the garage and parking it. instead of his putting h; up himself.

For all this service I get neither thanks nor pa_v. and x am tired at it and am going to stage a reform. but before I do I would like to know just what are the

ANSWER". The duties of a wife. are too numerous to catalogue. but mainly they consist in a woman being a'triie and faithful wife and making her husband a happy home. But certainly they do not include letting her husband makllllzgrrlieargilaxlst Zfpgilnership, not a monopoly. and husbands and wives

hould share equally in its joys and sorrows, its work and pleasures. It the husbands duty to bring home the bacon and the wife's to cook it.

Ellen ’s Diary

B7 sn-lslsssd Issuer's Wife

There are already tidings of much seasonal activity among rural wo- men in the way of sewlni’. quilting and hooking. Sisters. daughters, mothers, grandmothers, and great- grandmothers are especially taken up at: the moment with the latter and are doubtless expressing them- selves in many varied and beauti- ful designs. There is a queer be- wltcbment in a mat-hook, which seems to transcend even that of a needle.- Recalling many past de- lightful occasions at this handi- craft, one knew that those indus- trious women now “improving each shining" minute in this way would be almost unaware of yesterday’: storm. unless it would be to com- plain to themselves about the fact that grey skies and snowy windows allowed them little light for their intricate work.

e o o It is an ideal pastime when shafts of sunlight. such as only a March sun can afford, makes great pools of brightness about the kitchen or chosen room wherein the frames rest. What an absorbing pastime it is, from which one begrudges even the time taken iip with the preparation and clearing away of meals! And looking back. bright in memory-a nice picture. except for complaints of the men of the house who “just can't understand the spell that's come oven the women, now that they're into the hook- ing!" And yet obviously sharing in their pride, though as well much relieved when last loops have been drawn and with quickcned heart- beats the finished creation has been snipped from the frames and spread for inspection on the ﬂoor. and the indoors concerns once more swing hack to their former and more comfortable schedule. Many of the patterns would be added to. doubtless in the leisure of yester- day‘s storm.

e a Today brought the unpleasant aftermath of it. to the farmers, the busy clearing away of drifted doors and paths. although they would have the same consolation as James expressed when he came in to din- ner. “Wo really shouldn't coni- plaln. Ellen." lie said, “we have had, you might say. none up to this month, and from this. why, the Winter is only the matter of a few iveeks--and it's fine. to have the snow for the hauling. not. that there will be likriy- too much last to it now." Grand-daughter was about with others of the family. toiling up the. sides of the yard drifts, leav- ing these to shovel snow to her sled, but only briefly, then coming to a verandah to press a face curl- ousiy against a pone with the inter- ested query: "What are you busy at today? Oh. you‘re getting the potatoes ready for grankiaddy’: din- ner! Are you going to have car- rots too?" C O I

Then the mention of food sud- denly making her aware of an emp- tiness, “I could eat a cookie right now!" "Or a piece of bread." I sug- gested. "No". she laughed, "a cookie!" She smiled winsomely and pressed her face nearer mine at the glass, and the blue of her eyes was sunny this morning and a nice color had come to her cheeks, and a curl that is golden peeped out from be- neath her bonnet. "A cookie", she repeated, "one of oaten-meallf‘ She has already learned that during any debatable point over any unwar- ranted indulgence to a whim or fancy of the moment. it is in her favor to present as an example: "But Carol Ann's mother" or it may be some other small one in mind. “always gives . . or lets her do that!" "This," Jeanie laughs, "will likely prove to be' her most effectu- al plea for ivantinz this or that ‘like. the other girls’ when she comes to her school-years."

e e o

It was busily our farmers clear- ed away some of the aftermath which had been left in the wake of yesterday's storm and came again to the delayed hauling and the breaking of trans on the roadway. which at morning lay so clean and unbroken, innocent of footsiep or sleigh track. A grist taken to the mill was but the prelude to a trip to the corner store for needed sup- plies. of the importance of which the women-kind could conjecture. having seen James take up his pipe after breakfast, explore the depths with a finger, then sadly lay it aside. and proceed to his work at the barns. A depth of snow lies at roerl's end sit the highway, which Jock says "will take s spell of breaking” before the mail. we have been missing these days. reaches us again at Alderiea.

O I ‘I

An amount of snow lies toe in many a spot. but strangely enough not to any depth in the fields. or along the hilltops, already baring. And today-brilliant sunlight. light. wandering winds, beautiful and most promising iunset and now a bit of,a moon hung out, above the quiet, sleepy rntli.in.tiie valley.

Legends Of

P. E. Island

lBy Uncle Joe)

THE RECLU§I

When a person decides to give up the friendships found in \human society and goes off by himself to lead the life of a hermit. there usu- ally is a fascinating story behind the act.

In the following legend we learn that a Frenchman named Perry Gaudet left his home near the vil- lage of Souris to live out: his life in a deserted shack that stood near the present site oi.’ Murray Harbor. Perry Gaudet was the only son of.’ a wcii-to-do family. A bright youth, he was educated for the role of physician and ended his medical training by aLtending Edin- burgh university.

For a time Dr. Gaudet practiced his profession in Ontario and then returned to his home. a sullen, sil- ent man who shunned the company of everyone. Not even his father and mother could account for their sons peculiar behavior; and try as they would, there was no drawing from Perry's lips the secret which they fancied lay buried in his heart. When neighbors foil sick. the scr- vices of young Dr. Gaudet were Sﬂillihf, biit always in vain.

"l am finished serving humanity and soon will retire to lead the sort of life I have chosen." were his only ivords. More he would not voluntccr; and so. people came. pass him by and look to another doctor when they required medical attention.

O O

About six months after his home- coming, Dr. Gniidct gathered up a few favorite books and other odds and ends. and moved into the deso- late dwelling which has already been referred to.

The ycnrs passed and the recluse almost became a legendary figure in that part of Prince Edward Is- land. During the daytime he stay- ed within the narrow shell that scrved him as a home. but on fine nights he could be seen strolling along thr- coiintry roads or prowl- ing iike a wild animal among the woods.

If anybody spoke to him he, pass- ed without uttering a single word. and the few times that his parents went to visit him they found the only door to the dilapidated shtick securely fastened from the inside. To their pleas to be admitted he turned a deaf car.

By the end of twn years he be.- came known far and wide as the "recluse", the man who wanted to be left alone. the man who hated the sight. of other human beings. The death of his parents some years later failed to break down the barrier. He did not attend the fun- eral of either.

Residents of the district, who had thought the doctor a bit unbal- anced, now considered him in the light of a cold. hard-hearted wretch, a creature so depraved and in- human that evcn the death of his parents failed to soften his heart of stone. Those who formerly en- tertained a spark of kindness to- ward the hermit now put him out of their thoughts completely, and

everybody shunned the doctor as though he were some kind of plague. I O O But one spring the neighbors

were discussing which of them had seen the hermit last. Not for a long. long time they all agreed. "The last time I saw him,'.' piped one of the group, "was in December. I recall the time quite clearly. for later I remarked to my wife, ‘Won- der what kind of a Christmas the hermit will be having this year'?"

“Reckon yer the lost one. who seen him." said another. "Well, fel- lers, that's a long time ago. and

who knows what may have hap- pened in between-time. ey?"

"Perhaps it might be a good idea to do a little investigating." chor- used the others. "If the foller is alive wa‘ii likely see tracks about the place. or some signs of life; and on the other hand. if he be dead, we can bury his worthless carcass. and devil the tear will any- body shed over his passing."

"A man who wouldn't attend the funeral of his own parents." said the first speaker. "doesn't deserve to be buried nt all. But let's take a look and see what's vivhat."

As the shack showed no signs of life. the searchmarty broke down the door and e tered the building.

In a corner o the room. ’ and resting on a crude bed made of straw. they discovered the body of the recluse. How long he had been dead none could say, but their guess was that death had caught up with him some months previous to their visit.

Among his meager belongings was found a picture a striking- ly beautiful girl, together with a brief note which read:

Dear Dr. Gaudet: .

‘By the tlma this brief note gets into your bands. I ﬁll“ be across the River of Eternity. ‘

Please do not worry too much over my passing. as you are familiar with the circumstances fesdmg up to this trdgedy. ‘

Some day when the shadows flee away and the mysteries of life and death are unveiled, we shall under- stand why this cruel thing came between us. Until then adieu, my fond lover.

Yours forever. t Pauline. ‘The next story:
