‘ ' We are living in a happier age than “our immediate foremothers in one respect at any rate. Theirs was an . ago of sombre hues, ours is an age oi color. Dress fabrics and furnish- ings alike sound the note of gaioty, and respond to the tune that nature sets.
Even the bathroom has taken to singing the color song. and as we luxurate in the morning tub our eyes may rcst on walls of exquisite green,

To go yet farther into interior por- tions of the house, we find the clos- ots enlivened by colors that set off frocks that hang on the rods. One such clipboard described by a. recent u-rlter. had its walls tinted a soft rose. a patron’ shelf, covered and ruffled in grccu, run round the top. just obovc the hanger rod. and here the huts so‘. nicely on little trees of their own, these stands, like the dress hangers. being mercifully covered with velvet, you know how dresses will slide off the satin-covered hang- er, or oven off the wooden one that hasn't any cover on at all!
All Surfs of Conveniences.
To the rlgl.“ in the clipboard. there were two deep drawers, the shelf formed by tlzc top ol‘ the top drawer holding o. box that was covered with the gay paper that was hung on the walls of the bedroom. Under the long shelf that ran all the way round the top and“ which we have al- ready described. there was a lower sllclf at the cnd. above the drawers. and between that shell and the top of the two drrut-crs, were two little slanting shclvcs. quite narrow, with lodges at tho bottom edge, and here the boots and shoes were kept, about. on a lcvcl with the shoulder of the wearer. instead of being dust-collect- ors on the floor. ‘ .
Of course. the color in this closet was not allowed to blush unseen. There was n light. and a good light there, so that there was none of the fumbling and the impatience that so often accompanies going to a cup- board of tho old type. This ideal closet was also lighted in the day- time by a small window, and thus the airing of the clothes was made certain. Ton often when you come nem- a finelv-frockcd person. you notice a stuffy order. That is not caused by unclcnnliiless, but merely

Still another feature of this clothes closet of one's dreams-itwas seven feet long, bythe way. and two feet two inches deep-was the way in which. the rod for the dresses, etc, was arranged. It was one of those contraptions that pull- out towards you when their contents are wanted, and slide back unobtrusively when they aren't. This means that it is easy to pull out the drawers, reach the shelves, or get the shoes without having your hair net pulled off in contact with a. stray hook or,the_ dome fastener on a gown.
sliding partitions so that the hus- band might share the closets useful- ness. Here could go his shirts and socks. But to go back to the color of it. The woodwork, as well asthe walls, was rosy-the paint on them matching the rose that blossomed in the wall paper of the bedroom. The shelves, by the way, were covered with a. thin pad, covered in turn, as ‘I have mentioned above, with green. Of course, the matter of covering of the shelves and of the hangers is a matter of choice and of the pocket- book. Glazed chintz, which you can often get on sale inodd lots, would be lovely for the purpose. The main thing is gaiety and harmonizing col- or.
Bright garment bags add to the life of this closet. and these are made of any material you want, slightly sloping at the top to follow the lines of the hanger, and made with an opening there for the hook to go through. It. is well to have the bot- tom of these bags straight and long- er than the garment, and it is wise not to sew them up. but to make them with a‘ flap that will turn up like an envelope and will fasten by domes. Some people also make these bags to open down the front, so that they can be simply wrapped round the garment and domed to- gether. This really is the most eas- ily managed variety.
Materials for these gay adjuncts for the ideal closet are many and various, but the shiny surfaced ones are the best—-they shed the dust in- stead of collecting it.

A Man's Right: In Marriage
Tells What a Wife Owes Ilor Husband
' Dorothy Dix
In the two drawers there were little _
ooh’; do "
When a, Man Marries He is Entitled to a Comfortable Home, Well.Cared-F0r Chil- dren and a Loving and Intelligent Wife Who Will Work With Him as a Partner-
A young husband asks: “What has a man a right to expect of his wile?"
First. He has a. right to expect that when she marries him she does so in good faith-that is, be‘- cause she loves him and not because she wants a meal ticket, or because she is tired of punching the time-
‘ clock in an office and thinks it will be less laborious to lie abed of n. morning and let George do it, 0r be- cause she doesn't want to be an old maid.
Second. He has a. right to expect her to accept the responsibilities of matrimony cheerfully and cour- ageoual instead of howling and whining because snc finds that married life is not a perpetual picnic. Every normal man wants children and he has a ‘right. to ex-
- pect his wife to give them to him without regarding herself as a iwor persecuted martyr, and m has a ngm to expect hel‘ to put
her, heart and her back and her brain into rearing them up into fine men and women.
Thim- A in“ has a right to exput hi: wife w make him a. comfortable
home, and to set before him food that will not ruin his stomach and wreck his nerves by the time he is 40. _
A “Elie dggiiisglrccendlil: the woman's end of the matrimonial partnership.
y, health, his happiness, his ability to succeed depend on the kind of a home he has, and he has Just as much right to expect his wife to make him one that is a place of peace and cheer as she has a. right to expect him to make the money to support it. "Failure to provide" is grounds for-divorce for a wife from a. husband. “Failure to make a C0lllf0l‘t_ able home" shoulz‘ entitle a man to dllorce his wile.
-,Fourth. Aman has a right to expect his wife to be a helpinate and not a. lnillston: around his neck. He has a‘ right to expect her to pull her weight in the boat and not to expect hom to do it all. He has aright to expect he.‘ to do her fair shari- of work, and not to spend her time loafing round department rtores. and playing bridge, and going to matinees, whip; Set-yam; waste and steal and th- children run neglected on the stre . Y
He has a right to expect that she will.be thrifty and economical and not throw away foolishly the money that he earns with his very llfe’s blood. He has a right ti. expect that she will not only live within their income, but help him save to the end that he may not always be a slave nailed to a desk, Wm! 0111.11 i! DUB 0f recepted bills to show for a lifetime of hard labor.
Five. A man has a right to expect his wife to be a good sport who will meet whatever fortunes marriage brings with a. high heart. He has a right to expect her to pack her trunk and go with him to the ends if his fortune calls that way. "and not to make him shut the door of opportunity in his face because she can't bear to leave mother and the girls.
He has a right to expect her to buck him up when luck goes against him, and to keep up his morale, instead of sapplng the last bit of courage in him by her lamentations. He has a right to expect hcr not to whine any more over hard times than she exulted over good times, because both are in the day's work. ' ' '
Sixth. A man has a. right to expect his wife to act like u reasonable human being and not to expect the impossible of him or of llfc. Before shu married him she had his numbeiy-and she has no right to feel aggrieved be- cause matrimony hasn't changed it.
Therefore, he has a" right to expect her to take him as he ls, and not to flemand that on a. fllvver income he shall provide her with a iimouslrlc, nor to expect him to alter all of his habits and ways of life because they don't come up to her ideals. Ho has a right to expect her to have enough intel- ligence to realize that an unsentimen tal man can't always be making love like a. matinee hero, and that the fact that a man works like a dray horse to support his iamfly is proof enough of devotion to draw money on at the bank. He ha; a. right to expect her to understand that a’ man who has worked hard all day and comes home dog tired doesn't want to be dragged out to a party in the evening. _
He has a. right to expect his wife to have enough common sense to dis- tinguish between temper and exhaustion, and to know that often when he growls over the dinner and sits up in silence in the evening it is not be- cause he is grouchy, but because his nerves have been fretted to fiddle strings in business, and he just has to have an escape valve.
Seventh. A man has a right to expect his wife not to throw away the bait with which she caught him. He has a right to expect her to still want to be attractive to him and to think it is as much worth-while to dress up for him as she would for a strange man. She knows well enough he never would have married her if she had been sloppy and slovenly and had appeared be- fora him in dirty kimonas and run-down-at-the-heel slippers, and he has a right to expect her to keep herself ea ay on the eyes if she doesn't want his gaze to go straying on’ after flappers.
Eighth. A man has a right to expect his wife to be a companion to him. He has a right to expect her to study and read and keep up with him so that he will not be bored to death with the society of a moron who has never progressed an inch since her wedding day, nor got a new topic oi conversation since the first baby, was born.
A man has a. right to expect his wife to take an intelligent interest in his affairs, and to listen with sympathy and understanding when he tells her of his plans and hopes and ambitions.
Ninth. A munhas a right to expect his wife-w use as much tact. and "plomncy in trying to get along with him as she did in trying to get aloni
' with her bola berm-o aha was married, or when she wu trying to catch him
for a. husband. . -
Tenth. Finally, a man halo right to expectthls wife, to show him some appreciation and. not take everything he don for her for granted and as no more than her duo. A man ha; a right to expect his wife to tell him that aha sun how hard be works and what sacrifices he makes. and how I004 In‘! kind and patient and genomic ho is. and that in her eyes no hero in me world huanyihmg on him. . , '
