Dear Mary--You are home

your hair at last, and hidden away the
most offensive of your bridal presents
in the darkest corners where they will
show the least. and now you are set

You want to make your marriage q
success. You love John with all your
heart, and you want TO make him hap
ply, to make him gladder and gladder
every day of his life that he married
you instead Of that little cat of Susie
Tompkins that tried so hard to get him
and came SO near dong it.
OF course there is no cut and dried
recipe for being a good wife as there Is
for making sponge cake There are
however, certain broad principles of
matrimony that enable a woman to
keep the peace. if she observes them.
and ! am minded today to call your
attention to a few Of them.
Avoid Curl Papers.
will pass over the first two pieces
of advice-to avoid curl papers and
wrappers and cold cream. and to set a
good table-which are always given to
brides. They are as bromide and es-
sential as if one said: In order to live
be sure to keep breathing"
No romance has ever yet been found
robust enough to survive an encounter
with a frowsy woman. with uncombed
hair. an uncorseted waist, and a per-
sonal appearance that indicated that
she was not on speaking terms with the
bath tub or the laundry. The kimono
Is Japan's subtle revenge upon US for
the way we butted in between her and
Russia at Portsmouth. It is the real
yellow peril Beware of it.
I would also call your attention to
the fact that much love is choked to
death on tough beefsteak. and that the
grounds in the coffee pot have furnish
ed the grounds for many a divorce.
None of us can really love a person
we do not respect, and none OF US can
respect a person who is incompetent

Is every whit as bad as for a man TO
fail to make a living. Do you catch

But there are other things in matri-
way she feeds a. man, and to my mind
the greatest factor in making marriage
q success is for her to make UP her
mind that she is going to use as much
tact in getting along with her husband !
after marriage as she did in making

Shuster Treated "ScandaIousIv''

LONDON. Dec. 4-Francis DYKE
Acland. under secretary of foreign af-
fairs. in the house of commons today
said in reply to question that the
British minister at Teheran had some
time ago reported that severe tension
existed between the Persian ministers
and Shuster. causing the resignation OF
the cabinet
Philip f. Morrell sought to extract a
ministerial statement of the Persian
crisis, describing the Russian treat
ment of Shustsr as scandalous and
disgraceful.
Acland added that the British gov
ernment had represented TO Russia
that Persia would be able to paw an
indemnity without raising loan and
that the burden would make ii harder
for Persia to maintain order on the
southern trade routes-a thing neces-
sary in the interests OF British trade
