Look here, Mr. Man, what Is the

Why should you try to make your
self believe that you're not so bad as

true and tender even u he does not call

every time he asks for a second cup OF
coffee. Take it for granted that with
the new responsibility of being the head
of a household. his love is even stronger
and deeper than in the days Of efferves-
cent billing and cooling.
Into the early months OF married life
comes the problem OF the wife's dearest
friend. If you are a Young married wife
YOU want your husband to like your
dearest girl friend, but you make a
mistake in expecting him to bubble over
with enthusiasm about her. When he
says. Don't I like Ethel? Why, yes /
like her-shes all right you are a very
short-sighted wife II you will not take it
for granted that such a statement of
approval means as much as your own
eXtravagant phrases OF terribly sweet
and perfectly darling
In regard to friendships there is an
other important thing to be taken for
granted, and that is that your husband
will he as fond OF having long talks
and visits with his dearest friend as
you are with yours. When you meet
this dearest friend of his you may. find
n good many things You could critkise.
but don't do it. Just take it for granted
that your husband may be as sensitive
about the peCuliarities OF his friend as
you would be If he criticised your dear
est Ethel" You may not be able to
understand what the bond of friendship
between the two men can possibly be,
but take it for granted that your hus-
band would not bestow his confidence and
affection upon a man unworthy of them.
That the home is a partnership is a
fact that many wives ignore. Some wives
think they are martyrs II they yield to
the request of their husbands to give
dinner party to people who are not In
the immediate social set of the family
The delicate manipulations OF business
often require a certain social fabrication;
il you are a wise wife you will take 1t for
granted that your husband will be proud
and glad to have you ask him il he can't
suggest some people he would like to in
vite to his dinner table. II the guests
prove to be heavy mentally or awk-
ward in table manners, take II for grant
ed that it behooYes you to be as tactful
and fascinating to them as you were to
the musician and the poet you entertain
ed so Iavishly last week
II you want to show that you are "A
wife in a thousand" there is one sure
way you can do It. Take 1t for granted
that your husband will sometimes do ex-
tremely foolish things with his money
and never upbraid him for It. It may he
a horse race or a gold mine or a stiff
poker game or a piece Of costly bric-a-
brac, but no matter what it is, take it
for granted that he will discover his mis-
take, and ask yourself: Am 1 always
wise in the expenditure OF my
share of the income?"
And always. whether you are a young
wife or an old one, take it for granted
that your husband will like the delicate
hattery with which you charmed him in
those courtship days.

TO MAKE TWO FLOWERS OF ONE

. Every homemaker appreciates the value
of flowers in making a house attractive.
Yet every one knows that flowers do cost
a good deal of money in winter. There
are several ways of making two flowers
Of one. Of making one flower do the duty
Of several, and with these ways each
housekeeper should be acquainted.
few of the little standards that hold
flowers upright in a bowl or vase OF wa
ter are in themselves decorative and
useful They are not expensive. There
are toadstools. turtles, camels, frogs,
and other figures in metal and pottery.
A growing pot Of begonlas or geraniums
Is another economy. for this can be de-
pended on for bloom when fresh-cut
flowers are not to be had
A tall, slim vase that will hold two or
three flowers gracefully Is another econ
Omy. for, like the little standards, this
vase makes two or three blooms take the
place Of a dozen.
A supply of some sort Of greenery-
ferns or sprigs OF wandering Jew grow
ing in water. or some other foliage plant
will also supply the right note when
fresh flowers are not at hand.
