| wish here TO emphasize the fact
which so many husbands and wives
seem to forget-that marriage is on
one side as much a business con-
tract as any other partnership, and
demands exactly the same business
treatment. The husband is the
Garner, the wife the distributor, OF
capital, and Of the two her work is
really the more complex and diff
cult. The only way to carry on this
business partnership successfully
in a financial way, and without
friction personally, is to put it on
a cash basis. II is right that the
wife shonld insists upon having an
allowance. | think the reluctance
with wich many a man looks upon
giving an allowance to his wifi.
comes not so much from a selfish
and sordid love Of the money itself
as from real mistrust Of a woman's
ability to handle it wisely. He,
foolish man, doubts her knowing
the value ola dollar because she
has never earned one.-Helen

Ladies' Home Journal.
