(An Risk,s Rsssrvsl.)
Marriage is one Il the most important things
to be considered by every young man The
ern civilization. In giving recipe for cooinG
husbands last week The Chieftain only partially
told the story Of real welded bliss. A8nity is
. good thing. But some men would hsvs . sort
of h.rem Of .&nitie.. or course they are no.
happy and do not deserve happiness. The only
LAW Of ten words. consists mostly Of negative
commands shslt-nots'' and %. it might
be well 10 give some negative advice to those
who are seeking h.ppines. through marriage.
DON'T
Marry beautiful pair Of brown. blue or
black eyes-eyes are not all that you want
Mary style purely. Style is al right but it
never made good housekeeper or good
hotne-m maker.
Marry an extravsssnt girl. Unless you
independently rich she will become an en-
bsrrassing possession to you.
Marry . good looking girl. 1t may cause
trouble If she becomes too popular with other
men. A good looking wife is hard to keep.
Marry homely girl. She will try to he
pretty and in her attempts she may run you in
debt
Wait until you are sour. crusty old bachelor
to marry. IL you do you will have q rough
journey the rest of the w.y in life.
After you are married don't begin to buy
ten-cents-a- pound mixed candy for your vile
when you used to pay dollar box for candy
And don for minute think because your
wife is good woman and does the kindly.
helpful things that need to be done in your
neiehborhood. that her passport will get you
into heaven.
And for the sake of all that is good and holy.
DON'T be stingy Your wife is entitled to
some Of the money and-dont you forget it.
Don't send your wife to church. Go with
her. In all probability you need the mnstra-
tons Of the church more than she does.
Don't leave the training Of the children al to
your wife. She will have her say, but don't
put the whole responsibility on her.
Don't. If you are in = sinking Titanic" jump
into the life boat and leave your wife to 10
down with the ship. II you ay."The women
first" and you yourself g down. your chivalry
and valor will be Greater value to the world
than your life would be.
Don't fail to carry some insurance for your
wife's benefit. It is quite likely you are not
immortal. Keep up good estate for her and
the children.
Their memory Of you will be sweet il. through
your forethought. they are not thrown upon the
cold charity Of the world.

cOLLEG|AAS LEARNING
MANNERS At THE TABLE
College Instructing Students
How To Act Properly When
Meals Are Served

MANHATTAN. Kan, May GA
table etiquette course for men has
been adopted as permanent course
at the Kansas State Agricultural col
lege.
Tried out as an experiment last
spring, Il proved one Of the most
popular and helpful Of the special
courses In the whole school. One
hundred young men, seniors, took the
course and now another awkw ard
squad of nearly the same number are
learning to be graceful hosts; TO carve
and serve dainty meals without get
ting stage fright or scattering the
table settings all over the floor.
As a departure from the staid
teachings of colleges, the etiquette
course In Kansas attracted much at
tention last year.
II wasn't generally known what the
course proposed to DO. Would II
teach young men to serve and eat
tho instruction be for formal occasions
only. Was the agricultural college
trying to make Lord Chesterhelds OF
Kansas farm boys?
No Fault Found With the Service.
But visitors who saw the class In
action were convinced that there were
no frills about It, The meals were
very daintily served, to be sure, and
the service strictly correct. but the
food was simple and wholesome and
not beyond the means OF any family.
The right way to serve and the right
way TO eat were being taught. There
was no objection to that.
Junior girls In the school OF domes-
tic science cook and serve the meals.
Luncheons and dinners, formal and
informal, make up the Ave noon meals
every week. Four persons sit at every
table. 80
One-a woman nstructor-always
is hostess. The three young men take
turns at playing host. They must
carve and serve when necessary. The
instructor teaches by example; what
ever she does, Is right. Verbal in
structions are given only when asked.
The girls work in small kitchens
adjoining the big dining room-three
to a kitchen. There's a kitchen for
every. table, which means that a diff
ferent menu Is being served at every
table.
The girls are allowed 81 a week for
the five meals. They must do their
own planning and buying. A little
