It is because the Wife. through Selfish- ness or ignorance, ceases to make her hus- band happy and contented, and because this "Other Woman" does. That's the whole thing ‘in a nutshell. As long as 8. wife caters to her husband the "other Woman" does not exist. what wives are too dumb to recognize is that whether the “Other Woman” is tall or short, fat or thin. dark or light. her art in charming is nothing but making a man com- fortable, whether that means entertalninfl him when she is tired. or listening to him when she is bored. What he dislikes to eat. say or do are of the first,imP0ftBnCe to he!‘- ' She gets pleasure in submerging herself and putting him forward. whereas the wife feeds her ego instead of his. mail- ing him dread to come home because of complaints and whining and Icenes and hysterics. Most wives are iools in dealing with their husbands. They are ill- ways afraid of some woman taking their husbands away from them. but. in reality, a wife has every advantage in _the world over the Other Woman." First. Her husband is in love with her or he would not have married her. If she has thrown away his affection, it is her own fault. Becond. she has public opinion to back her. It is only when 3 man is desperate that he will flout convention. Third. She has the home. Every man loves his home if it is made a-homefor min and not ahouse for him and a home for his wife, children and his wiles relatives and friends. Fourth. If there are children ,they are her greatest weap- om. Men love their children and do not want to be parted from them. Any woman can hold her husbnad by teaching the children to play up to Daddy. 1-"ift’h. she has his love of peace. Men are Paciflsts. at least. it home. They abhor fights and scenes. especially with women. and more especially with women for whom they have cared. They would much rather come home, put on their slippers, take off their coats and relax than lie, evade and sneak out to the “Other Woman." Incidentally, appearance, not beauty. but cleanluiem and smlirthess keeps the “Other Woman“ away. The “Other Woman" knows that if she is unclean or untidy that the man will leave, whereas the wife is so sure that because he is married to her that she can be as sloppy and lazy 85 she pleases about herself and he will have to stand it. And she is so sur- prised when hc docs something about it. Or the wife may keep such a darned immaculate home and be so touch-me-not herself that she drives her husband to some place where he can smoke sitting in an easy chair. and vent his desire to run_ his hands through some \voman‘s hair who is wil.Li.ng to comb it again if it gets Ill\l55ECl. ‘ "Most of the women who boast of being such GOOD wives are Ohiy good to themselves. They cook what. THEY like to eat. They fumlsh the house the way THEY like it. They go to the clubs THEY like. They have in the people THEY like. They see the shows THEY like. They mm the home the way THEY like to do it. And husband is only the man who brings home the pay check. And that's why husbands roam. Be- lieve me, a. few kisses and caresses, his favorite dishes, an easy chair would keep Iiine-tenths of the wandering husbands home. Wives make me sick. Either they should care enough for a man to make him happy or they shouldn't marry hirnarid make him unhappy and then raise cain because some other woman is making life worth while for him. If wives would fight as intelligently after marriage to keep their hus- bands as they do before marriage to get. them, they would virtually‘never lose their husbands. I am the "Other Woman." I know many ‘ Othfil‘ women" and I have never known one of us who wasn't in deadly fear of losing the man she loved because his wile COULD win him back if she tried hard enough. But we are never frightened if the wife thinks more of herself than she does of her husband. X. Answer: Here speaks the voice of authority. I commend this womans letter to the careful perusal of every wife. Cut it out and keep it in the back of your bag when: you can read it over every day. It will save you a lot of grief and maybe a trip to ljerio. . Dear Dorothy Dlx—I am up against it. I am 35 years old. keeping company with a young lady who is 30.

Anmer: You alone can decide this question because the success of such a mill’- rlage would depend entirely upon your disposition and that of the E11‘!- If you are of an independent nature you would find it very galllng to be dependent upon your wife and if she is of the thrifty, ambitious type she might get very tired of supportlniz a husband. But. on the contrary, if you are easy-going rind amiable and she is the sort of woman who likes to "mother" a man, you might get along very comfortably and happily together. Nature. of course. intended for man to bring home the bacon and the woman to fry ii. and when these roles are reversed and the wife has to support the family it seldom brings happiness to either party. The man is humiliated by his failure to be the provider. He is jealous of his wife being ti better man than he is, and he takes it out in surliness and g'rouchl- ness in the home. I know many women who support their husbands and invariably the husband is like the dog that bites the hand that feeds it. I _ . Nor does it always improve the wife’; temper to have to be both the man of the house and the woman of the house. Often she is shrewish and contemptuous of her husband and none too generous in dealing out cigarette money to him. 80, taking it all in all, it seems to me that your parents are a better be ‘ as a meal ticket than a wife. -"“ ' 0 O O C O O "’ Dear Min Dix—I am a girl of is. very much in love with a man of 52. flyp-andfather says that the man in too old for me. but my younger ones n't'so_em to understand me as well.

NAMING TEE BABY The one thing to which parents are mostly indifferent when nam- ing the child is the essential beauty of the name. It is, no doubt, for aesthetic reasons that a number of girls are named Gladys or Gwen- doien, but it is difficult to be- lleve that it was love of beauty that ever led a father to call his son James or George, Thomas or Robert. There is a curiously prosaic quality in most boy's names , as though romance and poetry were unmanly. In our own time with its increasing population of Antonys and Michael; and Christophers there has been a slight tendency to a more romantic nomenclature; but even to-day how few are the parents who would have courage to give a son. the beautiful Irish name, I-Iyacinthl —Y.

The two three-hundred feet chimneys of the Fulham Power Station are being stripped of their scaffolding and. by the autumn of this year. the first section of this great building, which will cost nearly three mil- lion pounds, will be opened to sup- ply the country's winter demands. The output of this section alone will amount to 120.000 kilowatts. but the completion of the work on the second section, which will be equipped with two further chim- neyh will bring the total output up to 310,000 kilowatts. Of this amount Fulham will only take five per cent the rest being taken over for the grid. All told the station will cover ten acres of ground and consume two thousands tons of coal a day. The construction of the first sec- tion lias created a record in the matter of building. In thirty-three weeks nintecn thousand tons of steel were erected and the arena used were those which helped to construct the Sydney Harbour Bridge. OLD LAVENDER There was a time when Lavend- er Toliet Water was the only true scent for a gentlewoman, and al- though today it has been joined by many mixture perfumes and every flower under the sun,it still retains its charm and popularity. But to- day it is not merely a toilet water but a definite lavender perfume, and the best choice of all for the young girl, and for all sports oc- casions. Incidentally a few drops of lav- ender in a bowl of water near the fire will impart a delicious fresh- ness to the whole room.

A mother has solved this problem in an economical and ingenious way. An out-of-work car- penter made her a substantial deal box measuring 2 ft. long byi ft. 3 in wide and i it. 3 in. deep. with a neatly hinged lid. This was en- amelled the color of her children's nursery and upholstered in a wash- able fabric to match the curtains. Four cuwrs made it not only easy to move when cleaning the room but also a joy for the younger children to ride on. Inside. the box was fitted with a shallow tray for lighter toys after the style of the old-fashioned trunk. such a box will prolong its use- fulness when nursery days are over. Re-upholstered to match the color scheme in a guest room it makes a most welcome shoe-box and fireside seat combined.

In real life, conversely. so much is unexplainable. so much is never satlsfaotorly straightened out, that a truthful diary, would only be a mass of tangled threads that never achieved a satisfactory pattern. I have one friend who keeps a diary. and who lives in constant dread of lesing it. although her on- trics are cryptic enough. "Had the aunts to dinner. Help Black lace. Ducklings. strawberry flan." Con- fusing this, a trifle, until you realize black lace is what the writer wore. ducklings what she gave her guests to eat. The rea- son for those mundane details is because if she wears the same frock soon again her relatives are apt to aay—“Dear me, have you not another dress in the world?" and to think her lacking in house- wlfely instincts if she inadvertently provides the same things over again to eat. Mom of a giveaway is another entrtv in this dlary—"Wcnt to the Smi ha party. Never again." only two lines, but enough to give its owner a sleepless night when she miilays the book containing them.
