THE WIFE HELPFUL.
BY Cynthia Grey.
) NORTHUMBERLAND

If woman hopes to be a success
full Wife and happy home maker
she must make up her mind that she
is marrying her lover to help him
along.
If man wishes mis- home to be
the peaceful and comfortable retreat
that he has dreamed of he will per-
init the wife to give what help she
can.
Some women are willing to help,
but they really don't know how. Per-
haps they have no idea of the value
of money, never having earned dol
lar. In case the wife knows nothing
of business principles and business
affairs, is the man justified in leaving
her in such ignorance?
Often a woman is blamed for her
husbands financial failure Is the
woman ignorant of business affairs
really TO blame?
The woman who knows all about
her husbands business, who knows
what he is earning and how much
he ought to spend for household ex-
penditures and clothing, etc, is to
blame if she permits herself to over
If the man fails in busine ss because
his wife's extravaganza has made him
unable to meet his bills, and that wife
knows that she is spending more
money than her husband can afford,
then she is TO blame.
On the other hand, if the wife is
extravagant and ignorantly so, ow-
ing to the fact that the husband has
told fher nothing of his affairs, then
she 5is not to blame. The man and
the man only must bear the burden of
reBroaGh.
~ Anman has no business to permit
his wife to remain in ignorance of
conditions which, if she knew them,
would make her careful and helpful
instead of thoughtless and extrava-
CANT.
Money causes about half the trou-
bles that come into the home. There
is but one way to avoid these diff
| culties-that is by observing perfect
frankness and making the matter of
income and expense a household
problem.
Never try to save your wife worry
and annoyance by concealing hard
times. Let her know. let her help
If the times are hard 1t is good for
woman to know that she can set her
shoulder against the wheel.
The woman who hears nothing but
the success stories of her husband is
a poor helpmate.
How can the woman help if she
does not know?
If there were more helpmates
there would be fewer divorces.

these new overcoats are just the very
thing.
In addition to the linen, crash, mo-
hair, pongee, alpaca and mercerized
cotton are made up for the purpose.
The linen is used in colors as well as
in different shades of white and in
cream. Blue and gray mohair make
serviceable yet light weight gar
ments. Coarse toweling with its
rough surface makes a novel coat,
and one which can be depended upon
for a moderate amount of warmth.
The smartest styles in these coats
are severe. Straps, strapped seams
and tailor stitching are the popular
ffnishings. Buttons covered with the
fabric of the garment itself are on
the best coats
Besides adding a little warmth.
the long coat makes an excellent pro
lection from dust For this reason
1t forms an important adjunct of
the driving or the automobiling cos
tune.
The styles have been selected with
a view to the requirements of the
woman who makes her own clothes.
They are simple, loose fitting pat
terms which are readily copied. The
home made article has one great ad-
vantage over the ready made. 1t can
be thoroughly shrunk before being
made up. The wise woman will boil
or soak her goods for a couple of
hours before cutting it.
