The Confessions of a Wife
Dick and Mollie Discuss Sex

Look here, Mollie, cut out the JOY
riding with your boss"
This was Dicks greeting To Mollie,
who had come over 10 have dinner
with MS.
a MOllie flushed and then thfeW up
her hands with a characteristic ges-
ture Of independence. Dick, ! think
You are at least getting old enough
10 speak good English, especially as
you are living each day with Margie,
who. believe. taught English In the
schools before she married you.
You remind me of the boy who cor
rected his fathers speech when asked
TO solve a simple problem In arith-
metic," answered Dick but the fact
remains you will get into trouble II
you mix emotional episodes or even
social pleasures with business"
DO you never meet any of your
business associates in a social way?'
asked Mollie quietly.
That's a very different matter. /
meet Smith and Jones at the club,
have dinner or a drink with them and
the affair goes no further, but when
a woman attempts 10 hob mob with
any of the men she is brought in con-
tact with in a business way YOU can
make up your mind there is trouble
brewing"
Dick looked at Mollie rather mar
rowly and then remarked in some
what surprised tone OF voice: BY
Jove, Mollie, you are a mighty pretty
girl and don't blame Hatton for
falling for you"
Brothers are the last ones to see
the beauty Of their sisters inter
rupted Consequently when any
man pays one OF them marked atten-
ton they are usually at loss for a
reason"
But | still rise to remark that II
is not good sense to let your boss pay
attention to you, except in business
way. When any man sees another
lunching with his stenographer he
mentally registers something doing,
even II he does not speak Of 1t.
don't want to be obliged TO knock
any man down for making slurring re-
marks about you, little sister" and
Dick, with an unwonted burst Of affec-
ton, patted Mollie's shoulder.
Sex. sex, sex-I am so tired OF the
word" Mollle almost shouted.
do you mean to tell me there Is
sex in ability, in energy, in courage,
in endurance, In reasoning power; in
short. in brains?"
Perhaps not, my dear child, al
though when have more time may
discuss that matter with you, but
when you have recited all these won
derful neutral attributes you must
add to them others In which sex Is
always apparent Temperament IS
not neutral-neither Is intuition, nor
sympathy. nor loyalty, nor self.sacri-
| fee.
1.-THE mere fact that men and WON
en- dress differently surrounds them
with an atmosphere of sex. | want
to tell you one thing, little sister.
right here: No man gets so old, SO
muchly-married or so selfish that the
sight of pretty girl does not quicken
his cooling blood-for a moment or
two at least"
Mercy, Dick Is II so bad as
that?" | exclaimed. The Turks are
right to cover the faces OF their wom-
en-, not only to protect the sanctity
OF the harem, but protect man from
his own weakness. III your theories
are right. my dear, every husband
should be stricken blind on his we'd
ding day"

They believe that such an OK has

who do mot possess one are objects Of

er the kamars together, bedeck them
with ostrich=feathers, and lead them
to the river. There the warriors are
assembled; they dance round the sa-

and kneel on one knee; they hold up
their shields in attitudes OF defense
and brandish their spears, while they
utter weird war-cries, which are sup
posed to excite in the faint-hearted the
desire for battle. A captured kamar
is a coveted prize, and the Suks

The Suks were originally an agricuI-
