Is This Husband Selfish?

A woman friend Is struggling with
Il perplexing problem. Her HUSBAND
Is young architect. Socially they
have many pleasant doors open to
them. But their income as yet Is very
modest, too modest To admit OF mucn
unnecessary expense. The husband,
of course, can go about since 1t costs
him little. One dress suit In fact
will see him through the esason. But
II she goes II means considerable out

ply cannot afford. II means much to

pie that bring him orders. But should

he selfish In wanting to go! Is she

The wife certainly cannot 60 into
the society to which they are invited
without q certain number OF pretty
toilettes. But perhaps she ovsresu-
mates the variety and costliness re-
uuired for these. woman can by
her charm, her wit, or her intellect
be superior TO her dress. Perhaps this
wife can cultivate personality that
will be so attractive that dress Will
play no part whatever in her social
career. Then, too. 1t In time women
took a stand against the extrayaxant
dress OF o-day. The woman who did
1T would find more rallyfng to her
support than she dreams of. IL. how
ever. this plan Is beyond this WIFE
powers. is there no way By which she
can earn some money for dress? Here
again. she IL apt to run up against
snag Of convention But some OF
these snags need pulling up by the
root and casting into outer darkness
1t Is supposed to reflect upon the hus-
band for a wife to earn money. or IT
is supposed to imply that they are
hard UP. This Is all rubbish. IL q
woman has time and ability to earn
money, II the home will be more COM
Portable and happy because abe does

The husband is only human. IL he
goes out into the world and she
doesn't, there may no harm come
from IT; and then again, there may.
He may come back from his little
journeys into the world appreciaung
and loving his wife all the more. He
may drift away from her. This pos
sibiiity must be faced. 1t Is a thing
when neither ever anticipated 1t Al
the start.
But on the other hand. IL he stays
home unwiliingly and is moody and
discontinued. II he feels he cannot
achieve his ambittons because his wife
holds him back. this too will make q
breach.
