Fair wives the Cheapest.

A lady novelist says that blond
women are the most economical wives
from the viewpoint of the husbands
millinery bill. For" she declares, "a
blond can wear a poor black without
much trouble, but If a brunette at
tempts to wear anything but the best
black the result will be disastrous. A
brunette can wear only the strongest
blacks. A pure waxy blond is the
only type that can properly wear
white"
