BY DOROTHY DIX

This is the eighth commandment Of
matrimony:
Thou shalt not flirt with other
women, or roll thine orbs at the man
with whom thou fox-trotteth, for jeal-
ousy is as cruel as the grave, and the
short cut to Reno.
One of the favorite amusements of
both men and women, who find matri-
mony dull and monotonous, is to en-
gage in what they call harmless flirta-
ton. Which is as IL one exploited an
tnnocuous stick of dynamite or a. frol-
tcsome viper.
Now, the married flirts are not nee
essarily constituencies villains. Neither
are they always traitors, or even really
untrue to the partners of their bosoms.
They are merely bored. They are VIC
tins to the curse of domesticity, which
robs married life of all its illusions,
strips from it its pink chiffons, and
leaves 1t bare and bald and common
place.
Loves His Wife, But
In his heart a man may still think
his Matilda Jane a model of all the
virtues, and the pattern of what q
good wife and mother and house
keeper should be. If he had to marry,
he would marry her over again.
Well, there is no allure in making
love to your own wife when she listens
with half her ear to your impassioned
vows and the other ear and a half
cooked to hear the bay cry. There's
no thrill in sending her favorite flow
ers to woman who would rather
have the price to go on a new pair
of shoes. There's no glamor of ro-
nance in having little dinner some
where with the lady who has the legal
right to face you across the table three
hundred and sixty-five mornings and
evenings year.
And the woman who is bored with
the eternal roast beef and boiled po-
tatoes of matrimony, and whose palate
cries out for something with a little
more pep and ginger in it, is tempted
along the primrose path of filtration
by pretty much the same impulses as
her husband is. She, too, is a-hun-
gered for romance, and, more than
that. she is beset by a devilish fear
that torments her and will not let her
rest.
Her husband has quit making love
to her. He has ceased paying her
compliments. He treats her with as
little sense OF her being a woman as If
she were a feminine mummy of the
time of the Ptolmies. This raises a
horrid suspicion in her breast. Am I
old and ugly already? Do 1 no longer

Missing Lawyer and Wife
Are Found Alive in Shack
in New Hampshire Wood

Dixville Notch. N. H., Sept. 25.-
Joseph A. Dennison. former assistant
district attorney of Suffolk county,
Massachusetts,, and his wife, who had
been lost for nearly four days in the
wilderness of the northern foothills of
White Mountains. were found yester-
day. They had suffered greatly from
exhaustion and lack of food and sleep.
but it was not thought their hardships
would cause permanent injury to their
health.
The Dennisons were discovered in
an abandoned logging camp on the
shores of Dead Diamond stream. in the
Dartmouth College grant, wild Sec
tion of country near the Maine bor-
der and ten miles from the hotel from
which they had set out Wednesday
afternoon for stroll.
In seeking to return they had lost
their bearings in the almost trackless
woods and for two DAYS had wandered
in quest of habitation. Not mil
Friday did they find shelter in an old
iumber shack. where they remained.
TOO tired to walk any longer, and not
knowing which way to turn. Mrs.
Denn1son'S feet were so /painft1llv
swollen that it was doubtful whether

Discovery of the missing LAWYER and
his wife was made by Earl Gould and
Scott Copp. employees of the hotel who
had Joined with scores of other per.
sons in the hunt. AS a result of their
successful efforts they are entitled to
reward of $1,000, of which 81 1000

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
SHALT NOT FLIRT

attract men? Have I thrown away
my bait or lost it?" she questions of
her mirror.
Disaster the End
Whatever the reason of the flirta-
tions of married folks, however, there
is but one end to them, and that is
disaster. You cannot play with the
fires of passion without getting burnt.
This is especially true of women.
A woman's Irritation may not be skin
deep in sentiment. 1t may have been
Inspired by the most fleeting impulse
of vanity, just whim to see If her
eyes had lost the goo-goo trick of her
girlhood. She may have merely writ
ten and received silly note or two
or had a cup of harmless tea at a
restaurant. Her soul and her slate
may be absolutely clean, and in reality
she may still hold her husband as far
above the man she is flirting with as
the stars are above the earth.
Nevertheless she is running the risk
of wrecking her life and home. Thou
sands of women have been damned
for just so little. She Is miring the
hem of her garments, and there will
not be lacking those who will point
out the stain and call her husbands
attention to. it. And she can never,
never, never explain. And nobody
will ever, ever. ever believe the truth.
Least of all will her husband believe 1t.
When q married woman, flirts it gen.
orally ends In divorce for her. When
a married man flirts it doesn't end go
often in divorce, for necessity forces
wives to forgive things in their hus-
bands that husbands do not have to
forgive in their wives; but it ends in
broken hearts, just the same.
There is no safe Irritation in which
married people can indulge. All the
ways of dalliance are closed to them,
and they stray over the bars at their
peril. Therefore. say to Cupid when
he comes whispering in your ear, Get
thee behind me, Satan. for / partake
no more of romance, except of the
well-known domestic brand that is
made at home."
Thus shall you keep out of trouble
and safe within the fold, for this is
the eighth commandment of matrl-
mony: Thou salt not flfrt with other
women, or roll thine orbs at the man
with whom thou fox-trotteth, for jeal-
ousy is as cruel as the grave, and the
short cut to Reno.
(The next article will be on the
ninth commandment of matrimony
Thou shalt exalt no other place above
thy home, neither thy business office
nor thy bridge table, nor any cause
shalt thou put before thy home, nor
neglect thy home for it,

up with the others. The window
overlooked the grove Of pines. Out
side of it giant maple kept all the
sunlight from the room.
Nothing there!" There words
came from Bracken disappointedly.
Watt" The command came
sharply from the blind mans lips. He
flung open the window. "sit down,
all of you!" he ordered. They obey
ed meekly. On the window-sill he
put the silver feather. Then he step
ped back.
Release the crow, Shrimp"
Cotton resumed his own seat. The
boy lifted the cover of the box. With
a screeched "Caw, Cawi" the crow
fluttered out 1t circled the room
slowly. 1t perched on the green
glass shade of the heavy light that
was suspended over the table by a
silver tube from a raised design of
Egyptian scarabs that made circle
in bas-relief as large as the globe it
self. They hardly dared breathe as
the crow walked around the heavy
glass shade, his head cooking from
side to side as he regarded them
with his wise eyes.
"Poughkeepsie!" it suddenly
screamed "Pough- -kee-psie!'
1t seemed to see the shining silver
then. 1t swooped down, picked it up,
and was out of the window.
Grows are the greatest thieves in
the world" Cotton said slowly.
They'll steal anything that has bit
of shine, no matter what it is, and
hide it in some place they have pick
ed out. That's why the feather was
made of silver"
Hes takin' it up in the tree"
The Fee was the only one who had
not been impressed into silence and
immovability by the weirdness of the
thing.
"Good-by feather" laughed Carl
jerkily. Its = Great Lord!"
His exclamation was only part of
the startled chorus. The whole heavy
shaded light and the design of scar
abs had swung downward. Where the
heavy raised ceiling decoration had
been was a square of silver. On it
was painted crows!
1.-THE square design!" cried Bracken.
In the center were pictured, with
startling vividness, the under sides of
three crows. with their heads together.
And to complete the effect, six tiny
legs of silver cord dangled.

Chisel jewelers. Safe, 4
Lost $4,000 in Gems

Baltimore. Sept 25.-Defying de-
lection from the hourly visits of night
watchman, crackmen early yesterday
chiseIed their way into the inner re-
cess of a 3.o00-pound safe In the Jew
elery store of Steman and Norwig and
escaped with gems valued approximate
ly at $4,000.
No window or door was broken, but
the burglars cut through the floor
ing and ceiling of the second floor and
used rope to lower themselves di-
rectly in front of the safe. Instead of
blowing the safe, the cracksmen broke
through from the door, cut away steel
plate half an inch thick, broke through
SIX inches of concrete backing and
chiseled second hole in a second steel
plate. Despite the large amount of
work done within the building and the
quantity of dust from the broken ce-
ment, not a finger print was to be
found anywhere.
