clude to Get Busy.

EVENING CHAT
By RUTH CAMERON.

A few weeks ago / wrote a little
] talk about woman who was too busy
keeping her house .distressingly i'm
maculate to keep herself even decently
50, and whose husband, being but hu-
man, consequently noticed the contrast
between the slatternly looking woman
at home and the dainty and well
groomed young woman in his office.
A few days later 8 my postman
| brought me these two letters.
Says the first, after some prelim-
mary
81 think you did an injustice to all
three in this case, the wife, the hus-
band and the stenographer. To COM
pare wife with family cares and
household work to attend to with a
fresh young girl who has no care, only
to get her puffs on straight and her
waists fitting neatly, and to be on time
at the office, is what 1 consider an
injustice, and there are still quite a
few good men who have call to en-
ploy a stenographer and are not as Mr..
B. Also there are many in Mr.. BIS
shoes who cannot blame their wife's
dressing saque or while you wait hair
either.
Now I do not want to side with
women who are never neat and whole
some but 1 do say this. it is unfair
as we'll as uncharitable to condemn a
sister when we have only the evidence
of what Mrs. Nextdoor has seen. Two
to one she is only jealous because Mrs.
B. happens to be the best housekeeper.
"And another thing 1 will say and
that is after twenty years of married
life, nine out of ten men would rather
have their children we'll cared for, the
house in good order and good, sub
stantial, well cooked meal when 1t is
time than all the puffs and latest styles
brought out for women
Says the second

actly. But-presto change-that is all

find that it costs no more to dress
prettily and neatly while working
about the house than it does to wear
mother-hubbard wrapper and an un-
lovely apron. At almost any dry goods
store one may purchase pretty little
hous actresses that both wash and fit
perfectly for S1.9S. They come in
nearly every color and material The
plain blue chambrays and black and

trasting materials.
