.UNk|NG REMARKS
ARE 4 BOOMERANG
Girls Who Criticise Others
Give Bad Impression
Themselves.

WHEN girl is disloyal to her sex
w and to certain members of it in
particular, she will find that before
long the disloyalty will fall back On
Der own head, and the unfavorabie
impression she strove to create about
friend will in turn be reflected on
her character.
1t seems strange that SO many girls
should fairly writhe as they hear
some one praising another girl. If
they cannot Join in the praise the
least they could do, think, would
be to keep silent.
This, however, is only a mild form
of disloyalty compared to that in
which girl in talking to her male
acquaintsnces proceeds to shrug and
smile ano insinuate the character OF
her girl friends to the winds.
And even II the particular girl
whose character is being discussed
should not be Of the most desirable
sort, It Is, nevertheless, more hon
orable course for girl to uphold the
other II she can.

Of httle friend of mine the other

because she thinks she ought to; It's
only because she likes the boss"
WELL" I returned, don't you
think 1t commendable that she should
work hard because she likes him,
instead Of getting into his good
graoes and then shirking her
vorkf"
Yes" the GIRL replied assk4. "but
you don't know what's in back of her
brain"
How much finer, I thought, 1t
would have been had this little cir,
Joined in my praise of sr friend In
stead OF casting about for an excuse
to tear down the structure of praise
/ had reared.
And this attitude among girls to-
ward other girls Is only too prev
alenG
In order to gain the friendship of
men am much afraid that the girls
err again. When a young man men
lions another girl, speaks Of her as
being good sort, pretty, well dress
cd, very often the girl he is speaking
to will proceed to enlighten him
about the said prettiness.

SELF
FOR THE CHILDREN
Women Should Bear Much
Before Seeking Legal
Freedom.

LOW mucn must woman bear be
/ l fore she seeks her legal freedom
in the divorce courts?
How many times must she try to re.
claim husband whose love has beer
given to another woman?
Two very big and very serious qles-
lions, aren't they? Yet they have
been given to me to answer by Wife
whose despairing letter reveals the
tragedy of a woman whose pride i; UP
in arms, yet who for the sake OF he.,
children is anxious to hold her LONE
together.
Il have been married for eight long
years." she says, "and l have tried tc
be good wife and mother, but now
things have reached the point where
feel as if divorce was necessity.
as If could bear no more, and yet l
do not believe in leaving a man after
you have married him for better or
for worse.
"Then, too, there are the children.
Has a mother, do you think, the right
to deprive her children of their faith
er's care just because she is un-
happy?
"Of course there is another wom-
an; it must always be a three-corner-
ed tragedy, mustn't it? For FIVE years
I was as happy as woman could be;
my little son and daughter came and
my husband seemed well content at
home.
"Then he met this other woman.
do not think she was more than a
casual friend at first, but now he is
always with her; he has cut my al
lowance way down in order to spend
money on her, and because he knows,
or thinks that he knows, l have too
much pride to seek legal redress he
has given up all pretense of hiding
his infatuation for her.
ooh, is there anything I can do? ID
It worth while to try to win back a
man who has proved himself unwor-
thy? Please give me some advice"
Advice-ah, it is SO easy to give it
and SO hard to take, and there are SO
many points of view of this mighty
custom of divorce that I hardly know
where to begin.
Is 1t worth while to try to win him
back? Yes, it is always worth while
to do anything-to give up pride and
personal feelings entirely to keep a
home together where there are little
children.
Don't you think SO? Don't you be-
ueve, too, all you women who have
faced this question, that the man can
be made to see this point of view?
There are but few men, however
much they may strain against marital
bonds, who are really Indifferent to an
appeal made through their sons and
daughters who must fall under the
mantle of shame If divorce divides the
home.
Then, too, the infatuation for an
other woman Is seldom real love; it
nearly always dies unless circum-
stances fling him into continual COM
panionship with the other woman, q
companionship born Of his own mis-
cry II his home is closed to him
I know that Is difficult point of
view to see. Perhaps it is a wrong
one, yet cannot but feel that many
wrecked homes might have been kept
together if the wife had been brave
enough and strong enough to remem-
Der only the happy years and not the
unkindness of later days.
Divorce Is always cruel to a wom-
an, no matter how innocent she may
be, for it filings stain upon her life
that nothing can remove and leaves
a shadow over her children's name
After all it is the children who

That a distinction was made In favor OF

in the fact, he added that monthly masa-
