Probably it is Just a. case of war llttm. but it calls attention to a curious m“ " Dhobls. That is the fear and suspicion with which so many married men regard their wives’ mothers and which has resulted in the P00? “d198, however slim and elegant in appearance. being always caricatured as fat. and blowsy shwws domineering over their ab- ject sons-l-n-law. Also. it is this feeling thwli there are things about which one must either laugh or coy that has given perpetual llfe to the corny mpther-in-law Joke that is the stock in trade of smart-Bloc son-in-law. who take pot shots at. their wives’ mothers uradcr the guise of being funny, when they are only being insulting. WOMEN HAVE PROBLEM. T00 s, ; It ls easy enough to see why women go into -- marriage with a. chip on their shoulders for their mothers-in-law, because mothers, as a rule, don't want their sons to marry and they look upon their wives pretty much as they would upon burglars who had stolen their silver. Brides know this, and it makes them keep a wary eye on John's mother and not be crazy about having her around too much. But men have no such excuse for their antagonism to their mothers-in-law, for mot-hers want their daughters to marry and set up their homes. They are tickled pink when Mary makes a good catch and welcome him into the family with open iiiuris. so the but you can say for men's attitude towards their mothers-in-law ls that they are bound by tradition that they haven't had enough gumpt-ion t-o break. As a matter of fact. if the young husband knew which side of his bread to butter, instead of making his lloother-in-law the butt of his ill-tinted Jests and treating her as if she were an undeserved affliction that his wife had somehow put over on him, he would woo her as as- siduously as he did her daughter. For. little as he may suspect it. a married man can have no better friend than his mother-in-law, and in the ups and downs of married life trfere are going to be plenty of times when he will need her. And need her badly. . Perhaps the men who are organizing the Anti-Mother-ln-Law crus- ' ade have never noticed that in times of domestic stress it is nearly always the .ivife's mother, not the husband's mother, who comes tn the rescue. when John is out of a job and the rent is overdue and the gipcei- won't. glve any more credit. it is Maniles Mama who somehow fishes down in her old leather bag and dlss out. tho mrmey to tide ' them over. When the cook leaves and there is a new baby and them is nobody to look after the house or the children. it is Sally's mother, not Tom's, who comes and-takes over and saves the situation. And during the war when millions of men were called upon to I defend their country and so many homes had to be broken up. and so . many husbands and fathers were tortured by not knowing how to leave their families safe while they were gone, didn't most or them 301v; the ‘i 2 i t old woman of the sea when she comes to pay s nice. long visit but Household Ellen ’s Diary A strange sound .. likened me “oowe-ouaoow» tened.

When we East, con- sidered the unpleasant prospect of a lengthy drive facing this direc- tlon, without much coaxing, we were content to “stay right where you are until it; clears." Arid then. in the afternoon, when skies and winds seemed to favor it, we pre- pared and presently set forth on our homeward‘ why.‘ By the time we had called at -Ellen's home and James had duly appraised the animal in question —and bought her and we were once more on the road, vagrant drops of rain were falling. He had allowed himself to linger overlong about the stables and house. I myself needed no persuasion to view the Christmas tree, with a larger number o! gifts, still adorn- ing it.
