TO AVOID DIVORCE.
To Cover All Cases Married Per-
sons Must Be Cheerful.

Husband and wife should de-
eide upon a definite share of the
formers income to be paid to the
wife.
A wife is entitled, too, ami
should insist upon, sympathetic
help from her husband in the
rearing of their children. 1t is
not enough for the father to SUP
ply the finances for his children i
livelihood.
The wife is entitled to an equal
ity contract. Equal rights with
the husband and fair recognition
Of her own life and talents as au
individual.
A wife should insist that her
husband be pleasant at breakfast
and should come herself to the
breakfast table prepared to be
courteous and kind.
All husbands should recognize
equal suffrage.
Wives are entitled to protect
their dignity, and should be at
liberty to resent, as they see fit,
any movement tending to jeop-
ardize 1.-THE Six Rules Framed
by Miss Elizabeth +. Cook for the
Proposed "Union of American
Married Women. "
New York, Nov. 22.-NTiss
Elizabeth Ellsworth Cook, vice
president of the Equality Leagues
has drawn six rules for the
" Union of American Married
Women. The idea was suggest
ed by Mrs. Victor L. Berger, wife
of the first Socialist to be elected
to Congress.
after all, " said Miss Cook, in
explaining them, marriage is so
largely based on sentiment and in
each case on different set of con-
ditionS that it is impossible TO
make general rules.
"The one big rule that covers
all cases. | think, is, do the best
you can and be cheerful.
81 believe everyone ought to be-
gin the day rightly by being cOur-
teous and bright at breakfast. On
the other hand, / believe it is the
duty Of the wife to come to the
breakfast table with a sweet ex-
preston. Suppose the husband or
the children are late to breakfast
what does it matter? Breakfast j.
an informal meal.
MY idea of starting the day
properly is for everybody to come
downstairs when they are dressed,
at no set or definite hour and ir
not too great a rush to be polite
to other members of the family
who still are breakfasting or are
around the house.
There is no more reason WHY
man should support a strong
able bodied woman than there is
that a woman should support a
man perfectly able to work. We
may be grateful, too, that women
are getting over the point of vieW
which prompted them to marriage
as a means of support.
