BY DOROTHY DIX.

''The sight of iarring, brickering,
middle-aged husband and wife is
always a shocking one to me-" said
the woman philosopher, mot only be-
cause it is the outward and visible sign
of a marriage that has been n failure,
but because it shows that either the
husband or wife, or both of them
have been too stupid to learn the les
son of matrimony.
Now my husband and I get along in
peace and amity. There's never a rip
pie in our domesticity, and this hal
cyon state of affairs, which is so much
admired by our friends. is because
have had intelligence enough to learn
certain fundamental facts about my
husband and to neatly sidestep them
Most wives who desire to do their
duty by their husband spend their time
cooking up good things for them to
eat and ministering to their personal
comfort. That's good as far as 1t goes;
but, believe me, wife is better EN-
ployed studying her husbands mental
pecularities than she is in minister
ing to his physical comfort.
What has matrimony taught me
For myself. lots of things-patience
self-control; not to think once, but a
dozen times, before 1 speak; the abil-
1ty to walk among dangerous subjects
with the deftness of sword dancer
and diplomacy that would entitle me
TO be Ambassador Extraordinary and
Minister Plenipotentiary to any court
in Europe. If merit got it's just award
But I was speaking more particu-
1arly of the party of the other part
and the knowledge that I have ac-
quired that enables me now to avoid
the domestic spats that filled my early
married life with heartaches and tears.
Il have learned, for instance, that
it is never safe for a wife to originate
an idea that doesn't strictly concern

the Kafirs, disobeying the orders of the
white men, hurled his assegai. The
spear struck Wayne in the flesh of his
back and lodged there. Like Spartan
OF old, Wayne reached round and
pulled the spear free OF his body and
then staggered on. Weakened by loss OF
blood, however, he fell in his tracks.
The natives rushed forward to seize
him. But just then great numbering
body came crashing through the under.
brush and out into the clearing. It
was Toddles, the elephant, the sentt
mel, who acted rs guard at the door to
the Caves of the Hundred Lions when.
ever Wayne was within.
The Africans fed, for Africans, un.
like Hindus, fear elephants and hate
them.
Straight to Wayne came Toddles,
and lifting the fallen man from the
ground with his trunk, carried him
through the jungle back to the en-
trance to the Caves of the Hundred
Lions. There Toddles deposited Doc.
tor Wayne gently on the ground.
Later In the day, Lieutenants Steele
and Rodman reached camp, where they
found Captain Jones awr ritlng them.

her clothes or the cooking. That is,
she must never put forward her plans
as her own. And above all, If they
them.
IF she has set her mind on doing
any particular thing. the way to do
1t is to gently insinuate the idea to
her husband, to plant the seed, so to
speak, in his mind, and then later on
she can come back and enjoy herself
sitting under the shade of the tree
that has sprung up from the humble
effects.
Now If l were to say to my hus-
band that l had fine design for a
new porch, or that / wanted to send
Tom off to college, he would raise ten
thousand objections, every one of
which would be final, and there'd be
10 porch, or Tom would not go to col
lege. But I casually discourse about
porches and leave designs of them
lying around the house, or L mention
that some other boy is going to coll
lege, and get few college catalogs
sent in to my husband, and then some
fine day he electrifies me by telling me
that he has decided to build a porch,
or send Tom off to college, and
"eedn't say a word against it, because
his mind ij made up on the subject.
Il have also learned that it is fatal
to advise your husband, that is, in a
way in which you would advise any
body else and which he will recognize
as advice. There's nothing that riles
the average man as much as having
his wife tell him what she thinks he
ought to do. 1t almost invariably
makes him fly off at tangent and do
exactly the opposite thing to show her
that he won't be bossed by her.
Probably there is no other lesson
that a woman learns that is as hard
as shutting her teeth on her opinions
concerning a matter in which she is
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1914-11-11

vitality interested, and not proffering
a few suggestions in the matter. But
1t pays, for in the end her husband,
will condescend to talk the subject
over with her, and then she can ad-
minister her advise in sugar-coated
pills that he swallows without know
i ing what he is taking.
Another thing that have learned
! is never to correct my husband. oh,
l used to do it. 1 had hhtter educa-
tional advantages than my husband
had, and I've had more time to read
and am better informed than he is,
and ] used to consider it my sacred
duty to set him right when he made
some preposterous statement, or got
his facts all mixed up.
But not now. If he says that black
! Is white, or that Michael Angelo dis
covered America, smile serenely and
let it go at that. For what is his
| torical accurancy, or more facts COM
pared with peace in the family.
"Finally,'I have learned not to say,
| I told you so,' when my husband
makes blunders. I proffer my opinion
as tactfully as I can on a matter un-
der discussion. If he goes against my
judgment and comes a cropper, / do
not remind him that 1 warned him
against it. The subject is a closed in
Sdent in our house, and 1t is never re-
! ferred to again. What's the use? De
ordinations don't undo what Is done.
They only stir up strife and hard feel
| ings.
There are a few of the lessons of
matrimony that l have learned that
enable me 20 get along harmoniously
with my husband, and it's what makes
me say that any woman by the time
she is forty years old should have ar
rived at a perfect working lsnowl-
edge of how to deal with a husbands s
lidiosyncrasies."

YOUR CHANCE TO OBTAIN THE
ONLY COMPLETE WAR BOOB
"The Story of Europe offered to Our
Readers, Contains the Information
Necessary to Understand the
Causes and Issues of
the War

AhtauNhsg NOhbNttllS thC
Necessary to Understand the
Causes and Issues of
the War
THE Story of Europe" the remark
able book which we are now distribut-
ing to our readers, contains a wealth
of information about the countries of
Europe involved in the great war of
1914, and about the various nationali-
ties involved. 1t shows graphically
the areas and populations of the diff
ferent countries. and compares them
with the United States in striking
manner. 1t tells the remarkable story
of the physical and financial growth
and resources of the great powers, in
cluding the military and naval
strength of each. 1t explains how the
growth of national ambitions and re-
sources during the past century has
led to an alignment of forces that
SCORER or later must inevitably have
come into conflict. 1t gives a clear in
sight into the characteristics and Gus
toms of the faces of Europe, and
sheds a flood of light on the tempera-
ment of nations in its bearing on the
development of a warlike spirit, and
a growth of racial prejudice and hat
red.
There is nothing dry about this big,
information book. 1T is history of the
most readable and fascinating kind. 1t
is full of the most interesting and sig
nificant facts told by a great writer.
In unfolding the maze of diplomatic
plans and policies that have had a vi
tai bearing on the present titanic con-
flict it reads like great novel of in
ternational mystery and intrigue; yet
the story is so essential to an under
standing of the war and its causes that
its practical import Is even greater
than its interest as narrative. No
one who wishes to have an intelligent
comprehension of the whole situation,
of what Is involved and of the great
logical consequences, should miss this
opportunity to obtain this book.

The autumn season is quite certain to
bring the demand for just such protective
coat as this one. It is really ideal for
motoring, it serves admirably we'll for
travelling, it perfectly protects one
against the rain and it is so loose and
ample that it can be slipped on over any
gown without injury. There are no sleeves
but the generous cape provides quite suf-
hcient warmth for the arms. Added to
its other advantages, it is easy to make
inasmuch as there is no fitting to be
accomplished. The coat is made with big
loose armholes and the cape is attached to
these armholes at the back and also in
cluded in the under-arm seams. In the
small views, the coat is shown in the
shorter length.
For the medium size, the long coat will
require III yds. of material ~, 514 yds.
