WIVES TELL HOW
THEY GET MONEY
CLEVER WOMEN DESCRIBE
MEANS FOR OBTAINING FUNDS
FORM STINGY HUSBANDS.
ONE USES DOUBLE ENTRY SET
TLE-EAcH WEEK BASIS IN
HER HOME.

American husbands, even if they are
not stingy with their wives, are
inclined to compel them to ask for
money every time the household purse
need replenishing. Three hundred
women have contributed their opinions
and experiences to an interesting dis
cussion of The Family Poclletbook in
Good Housekeeping Magazine Most
of the women were in favor of the
allowance plan, the vote being three
to one in favor Of it.
Nearly half of the women who re-
piled say that they have to resort to
some sort of subterfuge to get money
for personal expenditures. Here are
some opinions:
One woman, who says she has lived
in six states, from Massachusetts to
Illinois, reports the complaint. very
general in her circle of acquaintance
that the husband is prone to compel
his wife to ask for all the money she
gets. Unwilling to give up the luxur-
ies of bachelor days" she finds a pre-
vailing cause of this seIfshness.
Lack of proper education at home"
is another source. This woman has
been divorced from her husband. He
is clergyman, she college graduate.
The burden of supporting herself and
her children has fallen largely on her.
The welfare of the children, whose en-
tire custody she could obtain by dt-
vorce, forced this unwelcomed action
upon her, she says
Touch of Pathos.
There is touch of pathos in some
of the confessions. 81 know nothing"
says one woman, "of my husbands
business affairs, although l have al
ways wished that I might I think the
fault is my own. | was a timid, bash
full girl, and had always earned my
own money and was afraid to ask for
money. If l understood my husband
better I should have got what was
necessary without asking if l might.
It was 25 years before l dared any
thing of the kind"
''He has been close always" says
another woman my husband earns
nearly 5000 a month and raves because
I have a telephone, which saves me
hours every week. He is generous in
Injuries; | have lots of jewelry, but
seldom a decent dress"
My husband" says a Michigan
woman. has a hobby which is his
worst extravaganza, that of buying
antique furniture, Sheffield plate and
other things which his income does
not warrant. AS a consequence his
wife has gone without many things,
clothes. etc, which one in her station
in life should have. ,--~'
81 am more and more convinced"
writes an Iowa woman, that the chief
cause OF all domestic trouble arises
from one or two causes, or maybe
both. First, men do not think; they
do not realize that women as we'll as
themselves have individual tastes and
desires that they like to crafty with
out having to beg for the money. Sec
ond, in all things the wife is the hus-
bands equal In the matter of spend
ing her money her Judgment is SUI
perior."

Southern Democrats Helped.
The tremendous and unparalleled
fight In congress over the passage Of
the Payne law was due to the contro-
ysrsy between two fundamentally diff

OF whether socalled raw materials"
should be protected or transferred to
