II your wife is given to womeh's

ings. Very few wives are fools, and the
average club woman in point of infor-
nation and argument can make most
men sing pretty small But agree with
her that clubs are good for women Of
small mentality and little education, who

that she will not care to roam away

for a husband to come home is not one
bit more thrilling to a woman than II Is
to a man, but any wife can be broken OF
the society craze by a husband who will

Don't sink the lover in the husband

your finger. Don't economiZe on express
sions of affection or stint your wife in
praise, and you may do as you will in

By DOROTHY DIX.

The world doesn't play fair with man
about matrimony.
When a girl is about TO take the fatal
step. her mother and her sisters and her
cousins and her aunts, and all of her
female friends who have husbands, take
her aside and have heart-to-heart talks
with her about how to manage a hus-
band.
Men have no such matrimonial pro-
tective unions, for there is no freema-
sonry among Benedicts, and IL any mar
ried man ever finds out the best way OF
managing a wife he keeps the trick to
himself.
No. No kindly, benevolent. bald-headed
gentleman ever gives the trembling bride
groom a pointer about how TO avoid any
Of the snags of matrimony, and yet there
is 50 much that he might say that would
be helpful; there are so many ways to
head of Mysteries II the husband only
knew how; so many times when he
might run up a lightning rod for his
wifeis temper IL only he had been taught
the art.
In the first place, one might say to
the bridegroom-elect that no man should
be permitted to get married until he can
prove that he has kissed the blarney
stone. F'lattering a woman before mar
riage is a matter of taste and discretion.
Flattering her afterward is a matter of
necessity and safety.
Next, he should be warned that Criti-
cising a wife's faults is like casting a
4 boomerang that flies back and annihi-
lates the one who throws il. Matrimony
is no place for candor. 1t is the field for
diplomacy TO do its great and perfect
work. To tell your wife of her mis-
takes means that you will have to dry
her tears with gifts that cost money.
Foolish Remarks.
To remark that her new gown is a
nightmare and her hat a millinery hor-
ror is to receive bills for new ones To
accuse her of being high-tempered is to
precipitate the storm you dread. But IL
you dwell upon her marvellous self-con-
troll and her angelic disposition, she
would bite her tongue OF rather than
say the sharp words that rise TO her lips.
Again, IL you marry an adorable being
who is incurabIy addicted to the marked
down bargain sale. remember that it is
folly to argue with her on the matter
or point out that short-length remnants
of stuff she does not want and imitation
Japanese vases are not cheap at any
price.
But if you view her purchases with a
contemptuOus air and remark that they
look common and cheap. and IL you ex-
press surprise that a woman Of her ex-
uuisite sensibility would care for things
that everybody has, you will put a crimp
in her extravaganza. She will never lead
another rush IN the marked-down goods,

with the idea of being exquisite you

A FEW RULES
WORTH REMEMBERING

Never spend money before you have
earned IL.
Take things always by the smooth
handle.
Never put of until tomorrow that
which you can do to-day.
Pride costs more than hunger, thirst,
or cold.
Never trouble another for what you
can do yourself.
We seldom repent having eaten too
little.
Nothing is troublesome that we do
willingly.
Never buy what you don't want be-
cause it is cheap.
When angry count ten before you
speak. II very angry count a hundred.
