YES, A THOUSAND TIMES

Editor The Times:
Does a wife earn wages? Yes.
q thousand times more than q
mortal man can pay. In my esti-
nation there is no wage high
enough to compensate a wife for
the services which she renders.
A man marries for a home and
to have with him one whom he
loves and one who loves him.
Trusting In her, he should give
her all the money on pay day. She
knows where each penny can be
put to the best advantage; she
knows just how much Is needed,
and just how much will be left.
She is the one who worries and
does her best to make ends meet.
/ But adutiful wife will never re-
ceive wages for the simple rea-
son that she will never expect
the same. All the wages she
wants or hopes for, Is the love
and kindness of her husband, and
her true reward in Heaven.
The term WAGES should never
be applied to a wife.
A HUSBAND.

THEY WORK TOGETHER

Editor The Times:
Does a wife earn wages? When
"a man and wife truthfully love one
another, as married men and wo-
men should, the wife will not ask
wages. They will cheerfully
work together, earn or save, to
the best of their abilities and OPP
portunities,, for their joint needs.
The man will give her money
that might be considered spend
ing money" In such manner
that she need not feel 1t is given
as wages and Is to be accounted
for.
The wife will. in turn, bear her
daily cares, whether .housewifely
or business, in a cheerful manner
and Will not demand or expect
wages, but will, with pleasure, an
ticipate the homecoming of the
husband. A WIFE.

think a woman and husband
should share all together. All
monthly bills should be settled.

In excess banked jointly. At any
time some of IL is drawn out. both
parties should consult one anoth-

"The Crisis" at Pantagss, Was
Written From Actual Occurrence

"The Crisis" an intensely In
teresting dramatic playlet given
at the Pantages theater this week
by H. Guy Woodward and COM
pany, is taken from true story.
and was written by a man who
knows absolutely nothing of play
writing.
Archibald Treat. prominent
lawyer of San Francisco, wrote
the story. 1t is the tale of a hus-
band and wife applying at an at
torney's office for papers of sep
atation and separate ownership of
community property. preparatory
to divorce. Treat Is great
friend Of Alexander Pantages,
owner of the chain of Pantages
theaters, and blushingly present
cd his manuscript to the vaude-
Vile magnate.
sJIn two weeks Guy woodward,
Edesse Fowler and Harry X.
stewart were rehearsing the play,
and now The Crisis" is one of
the biggest hits of the program.

SHOULD HAVE WAGES

Editor Times:
SHOULD a Wife Receive
Wages?"
After discussing the above
question with five ladies, two of
whom are working, / am more
convinced than ever, that a wife
should have wages, or an allow
ance, as prefer to term mine. |
look forward to my weekly allow
ance just as eagerly as my hus-
band looks forward to his wages.
A wife still retaining some of her
independence, is proud to have
some money as her very own to
purchase few of the many little
things that crafty woman's
heart. Especially when an ac-
counting of the expenditures is
not expected by the husband.
Many women feel Inundated
when 1t is necessary to ask for
money. When the husband freely
gives the wife her portion of the
pay check, she has further evi-
do0De of his love and trustful-
ness. II wives received a certain
amount OF money from each
weekly or monthly check, there
would be fewer married ladies
filling positions away from
home.
Respectfully yours,

HELP NATURE HOLD

Fluffiness, even color, brilliance

Nature most when you assist her
by the best method, to safely make
and keep perfectly clean, healthy

not advisable to use a makeshift,
but always use a preparation made
for shampooing only. You can
enjoy the best that is known for
about three cents shampoo by
getting a package Of canthrox
from your druggist; dissolve a
teaspoonful In a cup of hot water
and your shamIo 90 is ready. After
its use the hair dries rapidly with
uniform color. Dandruff, excess
oil and dirt are dissolved and en-
tirely disappear. Your hair will

romance, but real love. We
are both well thought of
among our friends and do not
wish to do anything wrong,
but 1t seems more wrong to
me to remain with someone I
will never love again. What
on earth shall l do?
UNHAPPY.
A.--Remain with your husband,
IL you don't want to do wrong
that is the only thing for you tO
do. Also tolerate NO advances
upon the part Of the other man.
On the other hand, endeavor to
show him his duty. II you are de.
termined to do your duty you will
have . good influence over him,
You will never be happy in any
way but staying In your own home
and being the best wife possible.
Happiness would NOS come from
taking this other man away from
the woman he has married and
promised TO protect and care for,
1t would not come of breaking
your husbands heart and this
other wOman's heart. Both you
and this man have married your
devotiOns to another, and your
duty lies In being true to these
promises. See nothing of this
man. Take him out of your
heart no matter at what cost. You
could not be happy together, for 70
accomplish that the great wrong
you would have committed would
forever overshadow you and make
you more miserable than to feel
that you must live and love i'm
vain.
There is but one thing to do.
and that Is the right thing. DO It,
and presently there will come an
other and bigger happiness, the
that comes to those who
mako sacrifice for the right.

Does q wife earn wages? If

Does she deserve an equal split
