Solomon--a man with thousand
wives, and who was doubtless
swamped in all the fifty-seven varie-
ties OF wifely devotion, and who got
so tired of il all that he cried out in
desperation;
stay me with flagons, comfort me.
with apples; for | am sick of love-"
Concerning the importance of IN
.derwriting domestic affection with
good housekeeping, there are three
points that no woman can afford to
ignore.
The first is that men love to eat,
and eat to love. No man ever pro-
posed to woman on an empty
stomach, nor does any husband pay
his wife compliment, or give her a
fat check in the awful half-hour wait
when dinner. is late. 1t is when he is
full and comfortable that the gastric
juices play upon atman's heart and
soften it toward woman.
The second point is that, unro-
mantle as it sounds, affection depends
upon digestion, and when dyspepsia
comes in at the door, love flies out
Of the window. Also peace. Like
wise harmony, and these are fol-
lowed by cheerfulness, amiabiity and
all the other livable qualities in a hus-
band \
No man whose outraged stomach
is wrestling with sour bread, tough
steak, half cooked vegetables and
soggy pie is in a state Of mind to do

anything but swear at his wife, spank
the baby, and kick the cat, so every
wife faces the proposition that i she
wants to keep her husband her lover,
she has got to look after his liver and
keep him so ignorant of his stomach
that he will have time to remember
his heart.
The third point is that the pros
perity of family depends upon the
woman's skill as housekeeper. Ma
poleon said that an army fought on
its stomach, and the same thing is
true of every individual man who is
engaged in the battle for fortune.
The amount of work and the quality
of his work are in direct ratio to his
energy and vital force, and this de-
ponds upon how comfortable and
peaceful things are. at home.
Between the achievements of the
man who goes forth to his daily work
rested, refreshed and properly nour-
ished, and the one who goes forth
harassed and filled with indigestible
food, is the difference between sue
| cess and failure. Hence, it pays every
wife to learn how to cook and keep
house, because it increases her hus-
bands earning capacity.
/ Finally, the home is a wife's
weapon, offensive and defensive. II
is her castle and if she knows how
to provision it and garrison it prop
erly, she can sit at her donjon win
dow and laugh at regiment ot

do Nmore to keep man out of temp
tation of an evening than all the Ter
Commandments.
All of which is respectfully sub

Did you ever notice that when you
give woman any kind of romantic,
Ihigh-fa1lutin theory as a solution OF
problem, she will swallow it, hook,
bait and sinkcr, without even inyesti-
eating whether il will work or not,
but If you offer her practical, COM
con-sense solution Of her difficulty,
she rcpudiatcs both the counsel and
the counsclor!
Take, for instance, the question that
looms biggest on the horizon of every
married woman, that Of keeping her
husband happy and satisfied at home
and thinking that He won the capital
prize in the domestic lottery in a.
wife.
Every wife spends hours ponderingY
over that. dark and inscrutable prob
lem, and she falls for such silly twad-
die as that the way to retain a hus-
bands love is by keeping young and
beautiful, which can't be done, or by
keeping him fascinated by coquetting
with him, and keeping him guessing,
which would make any husband ex-
ceedingly tired, or by talking poll
tics and the stock market to him,
which would bore him to death, but
she will not listen to you when you
tell her that the surest way of Crap
ping husband to her is to make him
comfortable.

spise the practical side of life, and
that is the reason that they arc so
reluctant to accept the fact--which

Gifts and
the Girl
By ANN Isle.

One of my correspondents has
written me letter on the subject,
and | agree with Samuel S. G." that
it is subject worthy of very serious
consideration.
Ny writer says.in part: 4
"A boy who is student in high
school or college. often spends his
money freely just to show the girls
that he has it. He forgets that his
parents may be making sacrifices to
educate him--and he forgets that he
may need anything he can save in or
der to start himself in life later.
81 have come across many college
graduates who today are struggling
hard to make their living as conduc-
tors, or even office boys. They are
doing this because in their school
days they went out and enjoyed
themselves with girls who never
dreamed that the money being spent
on them was needed for mans
progress"
Ny correspondent is right. Boys
have foolish desire to impress girls
by their generosity; and girls have a
thoughtless way of accepting as their
just due gifts to which they have not
a moral right.
The question OF money and atten-
tons ought not to enter into friend
ship. Life is a matter OF give and
take--but not matter OF cold
bloodedly demanding so much for SO
much A girl whose friendship is
worth having ought to feel kindly
interest in boys future and decent
impulse not to accept gifts and atten-
lions borrowed out of fund his
parents have managed by earnest sac
rifice to save up for his start in life
Think it over, girls! .....u
