Rose, like Marjorie, finds that by
marrying her lover she has made COM
parative stranger of him. They have no
common mental stimuli. Rose discusses
the matter with a psycho-analyst, who
is a friend of her husband. He answers
her questions by taking up the case of a
hypothetical Darby and Joan who fall
in love.

They fall Victims" he says, ito the
dangerous illusion that they are intel
lactual companions. They think they are
having wonderful talks. All they are
doing is long circuiting their sex attrac-
ton. Well, marriage gives it a short
circuit. Why should the current light
the lamps when it can strike straight
across?"
and poor JOAN" says Rose, who has
all along thought she was attracting a
man by her intellect, her understanding
and all that, wakes up to find that she's
been married for her long eyelashes and
her nice voice-and her pretty ankles.
That's little hard on her, don't you
think, if she's been taking herself Sc
riously?"
Nine times in ten,' he says, she's
fooling herself. She's taken her own
ankles much more seriously than she has
her mind. She's capable of real sacri-
fees for them-for her sex charm, that
is. Intelligence she regards as
gift. She thinks the witty converse
lions she's capable of after dinner, or
the bright letters she can write to
friend, are real exercises of her mind

real work But work isn't done like that.
Works overcoming something that re-
sists-and there's strain in it, and pain
and Encouragement"
Rose decides to transform herself
from Gibson girl to an Ibsen girl. She
quits her Dolls House, after an ineffec-
tual attempt to study law, and capital
ICES her excellent ankles. In other words,
she goes into the chorus. She resists her
husbands well meaning attempts to lure
her back. She goes on and by an easy
transition passes into the business of
making theatrical costumes and achieves
great success.
Of course, in the end her husband
comes round. He sees, or pretends to
see, that Rose is not doll, but regu-
lar person. So she goes home again. Mr..
Webster does not tell us whether she
continues her business, but the reader
infers that she does not. There is really
no reason why a healthy young woman,
with no household obligations, should
rot go to the office at eight-thirty every
morning and get home about six. But
usually she doesn't. One supposes that
Rose, having gained her point, returned
more or less happily to the stern bust
ness of wearing clothes rather than
making them, of giving and receiving
dinner parties, of occupying box at the
opera every Monday.
Marjorie's husband, being an English
mana Wells Englishman, that is
takes the solution Of their marital prob
lem into his own hands. He, not Mar
jorie, is the one that wishes to run away.
But Marjorie insists on going with him.
So they quit the Dolls House together,

sanitary environment, and rush off to
Labrador. There, in the course of an
adventurous winter spent alone in the
wilderness, their mutual dependence
brings them together again. In their
lonely hut they talk together for months
without the slightest strain, though, be-
cause Marjorie's husband is a Wells
Englishman, she does not have the OPP
portunity to do much of the talking.
In the spring they go back to London.
Marjorie makes good resolutions about
abstaning from running up bills, and
her husband resolves TO quit synthetic
rubber and take to writing books, crea-
tive and suggestive books. He confdes

attachments, over chair every night.
She thought of all the mornings to come
when her first view of the universe must
consist of those unspeakable gartered
socks. / also know of a young man who
felt that he could never become recon-
clled to the presence of cold, detached
hairpins.
But we do become reconciled to these
annoyances. We forget them. AS time
goes on Mrs. McNab does not notice my
garters any more than notice her hair
pins. Married life is succession of more
or less difficult adjustments, some of
which Mr. Williams cleverly portrays,
and if we are good sports and love each
other we get through them. We become
transformed and domesticated, and we
find ourselves thinking great deal
about the children. Bernard Shaw says
that most of us get entirely too domes-
ticated for our own good and there may
be some truth in that.
Messrs. Wells and Webster, in MAR
riage" and "The Real Adventure" re-
spectively, show what happens when
the good ship Matrimony is embarked on
more tempestuous waters and comes
near to shipwreck. incidentally, Mr..
Webster shows us what Nora-in his
book her name is Rose-did when she
went away.
Mr.. Webster's Rose marries lawyer
who is interested wholly in the science
of his profession, and Mr.. Wells's Mar
iorie marries a scientist interested
wholly in chemical research. Both young
women have an instinct for decorative
beauty. Marjorie gratifes this in pur-
chasing beautiful things and running up
bills that swamp her professor-hus-
bands modest income. Roses husband,
on the other hand, takes the initiative IN
making his house a place of luxury for
the woman he loves. The result Is that
both husbands have to become money
grubbers. The American puts aside ms
scientific detachment and goes after a
big practice. The Briton quits his
laboratory and commentaries his dls'
covery of synthetic rubber.
Meanwhile the two women nave hoV
gained in happiness. They have nothing
TO do. There are children, but there are
many servants

his plans to Marjorie in the Labrador
hut, and she, fresh from her good resolu-
tions, Immediately visualizes the hand
some study she shall fit out for him, q
tall room with a marble fireplace, rich
green window curtains, dignified book
shelves, a great desk and a cleaning
lump of symbolical Labradorite on the
desk. She makes mental note of the
shops where she can get these furnish
.ngs.
One wonders if Marjorie can ever be
anything else than a spender. Perhaps
her daughters
The problems of the wives of these
stories may be summed up by inverting
an old nursery rhyme:
There was young woman; NJ
Lived on the Avenoo, IA
She had so many servants
She didn't know what to do.
They are rich, vivid stories, beautiful
ly told. Mr. Webster's, in particular, is
one of the best of our modern American
novels. But, after ALL Mr.. Williamss
more trifling tale gets down nearer to
the level of the problems that are more
familiar to the average young wife.
Take, for instance, Marjorie Smith
and Rose Jones. The chances of either
Of them marrying a man capable of be-
coming great corporation lawyer or
discovering synthetic rubber are so re-
mote as to be laughable. 1t is almost
inevitable that each will marry a man
whose weekly pay envelope affords little
more than the necessities. Each baby is
not an unalloyed blessing-it is an eco
nomic problem. Marjorie Smith and
Rose Jones have not too many servants.
They are lucky if they can keep a single
pct-walloping immigrant in the frugal
kitchen. In most cases such luxury is
beyond their means. They never run off
to adventure after individuality. They
can't. If they did what would become Of
the kids? They do not chafe because
they have little or nothing to do. They
have entirely too much to do.
1t is to be hoped that some day Mr..
Webster and Mr., Wells will give us
books dealing with the marriage prob
lens of Marjorie Smith and Rose Jones,
as vivid and illuminating as the studies
they have given of these marriages
de lure. OF course, such books would be
very difficult to do. Perhaps nobody
would be capable of doing them, except
Marjorie Smith and Rose Jones.
And they will never have the time.

Little Rock, April 2O.-The gover- nor has issued proclamation au- thorizing an expenditure amounting to $3,OO0 for the purpose of meeting the necessary expenses of the Cald- we'll < Drake controversy. This was done at the request of the Capitol Commission, since the old claim has been revived before the Board of Ar bitration that was authorized by the Legislature. There is more than S300,000 involved in the controversy, and the Commission insists that the state owes Caldwell x Drake nothing. but that, on the other hand, the for mer capitol contractors in fact owe the state a considerable sum of money.
 The expense to be borne by the Commission will be that of bringing experts from outside the state to tes- tify, and the pay of stenographers and for printing.
