HUSBANDS
American Wife of Celestial Finds
Him Ideal.
George Gould's Sister-in-Law Praises
Spouse Who Cast Her Family and
Friendships Men of Her
Own Race Are Bores.

2 San Francisco, Cal.-"The world
may give the laurel to the American
husband, but l am glad l married a
Chinaman. OF course, l can only
speak for myself and though l would
never take the responsibility Of adyis-
ing anyone to marry as l did, yet l
have certainly found that the Chinese
make ideal husbands.
In missionary experience l found
that there happiness is the rule, not
the exception. Divorce or separation
are very rare. My home life is at
least the equal of any American home
/ have ever know"
Mrs. Wong Sue You Clemens is a
cultured well-educated white woman.
the sister of Mrs. Howard Gould, who
six years ago became the wife Of a
Chinese merchant. Her home today
Francisco's Chinatown.
Il find the American men great
bores. They have no conversational
resources outside of their individual
interests. Their women are kept at
their wits end amusing and entertain
ing them.
But the Chinese are very versatile
and the most striking people in the
world. To them everything has a
meaning. For instance, this is a real
brotherhood table There are no
edges to friendship, so the Chinese
never eat at square tables. 1t seems
small thing, but there is a certain
fineness and sentiment among the bet
ter class of Chinese which character
ICES everything they do Indeed, l have
only one regret, that did not have the
courage to take this step in my early
youth"
Mrs. Wong has adopted the Chinese
dress, which she likes as she likes
everything Chinese.
ITO me there is nothing unusual in
what l did," she continued. 1.-THE
Chinese are the kindest people in the
world and their regard for women is
most reverent. Their ideal never
permits a man to disrespect a woman
who respects herself. l think this is
more than we can say Of our country
men.
THE Chinese woman Is the mistress
Of her home and she Is as much a
coquette, as much a side-stepper of
whatever does not suit her, as her
American sisters. What is even more,
the husband can not endure to see her
do physical labor"
Mr.. Wong Is a suave, good-humor-
ed, easy-mannered oriental.
Il have not seen my mother for six
years My family bitterly opposed
my marriage and learn of them only
through others. / did not try to keep
any of my friends. / knew ! was
ostracized when l married nay hus-
band. But / do not think my loss is
to be compared with my gain. This
little store, hang with the treasures
We dug from the ruins, bounds my
world. But it is very rich, for it con
tains a friend. When husband and
wife are perfect comrades they do not
need others. Only the unhappy are
dissatisfied; we are supremely happy.
IF l had married 20 years ago in
stead Of six we would have nothing
