80 other work in the world is so
u caring as dOTestIo tasks, just he,
cause there are no outside interests
TO enIightcn and orighten them as
there is to the WorH that Is done ont
sd" Of TIE horne.
Therefore, when night comes and
tIr children are safely tucked into
bed and the hOuselold affairs settled,
the woman is starved for companion
ship and amusement. She wants to
talk and TO be talked TO- to hear some
thing fresh that will give her thOughts
a new turn. The only person to whom
she can safely look u supply this
need is her husband and if instead Of
leaves her to add a lonely evening to
a lonely day, it is nothing short Of
tTagical TO her
Probably-at least let us suppose
so for humanity's sake-the man who
does this does not realize how cruel
he is to his wife, or else he would
stay at home and try TO entertain her
or at least take her along with him
to some place of amusement Ger
tainly, no man with a heart in his
bosom, or one spark of affection for
the woman he is married to-. would
evening after evening, leave her
to her own dull and gloomy sOCi-
ETY., of which she had far more than
a sufficienCy through the day, if he
ever stopped to visualize how lonely
and forlorn a figure a woman is sit
ting up solitary and alone, her one
diversion waiting nour after hour for
the click of key IN lock, and her
imagination busy picturing scenes OF
merriment in which her husband is
participating, and sirens who are
snatching him away from her.
Just by way of illustration, let
man picture himself under the same
conditions. How would he like to
spend the evenings alone in the flat
If it was his wife's habit after dinner
to pin on her hat and sally forth to
some place of amusement? How
would he like to pass the hours think
ing Of her spending a gay evening in
restaurants, telling and listening to
good stories, or tango trotting little,
and holding cheerful converse with
good looking mep, or having little
game Of bridge With a table OF good
players, while all the excitement that
he had was reading the evening paper
and listening to the baby sleep.
What would he do when she came
home around midnight or little
later? Can't We all give a good guess?
He'd beat IL for the divorce court. 1t

wouldn't take much OF that brand OF
matrlmOnv to satisfy him.
And what makes him suppose that
his wife likes il any better than he
would? All the hermits l ever heard
Women are VIGOROUSLY social by ma
ture, fond Of the sound OF their own
voices, and other people, and no
woman ever vet was known to volun-
tartly commune with herself il she
could commune with anybody else.
Now | hold no brief for the hen
p"cker. | have gone on record, more
than once, as holding firmly to the
faith that when a man marries it does
not give his wife right to police his
COminES and guings. | believe that
every man, even though married, has
a right to some time off, to foregather
with his old friends, and to have some
masculine society that is strictly mas
culine, and with no trail Of a petticoat
over il.
At the same time mans first duty
is 10 make his wife happy and to give
her his COmpaniOnship. He owes it to
her to feed her mentally and spirit
ua.ly just as much as he does physi-
Cally, and he fails in his obligation to
her If he does not SPEND his evenings
a home as habitual thing. That is
what the woman marries him for, and
he may be certain that she would never
have left her happy home if she had
had any linking that she was going to
be chucked down into a strange place
and left alone.
Solitary confinement is the maxi.
mum punishment in a penitentiary
and no mans got righI to inflict that
on an innocent wife. Moreover, he
runs risks when be does it, and it
speaks volumes for the honor Of
women that more wives, whose hus-
bands leave them alone Of an evening,
don't go out and HUNT up some amuse-
ment on their own score.
AS solution to this vexed question,
offer the humble suggestion that has
been applied with success to another
domestic problem - why shouldn't
wives give their husbands a night off
each week as they do Mary Jane, and
the balance Of the time why shouldn't
husbands stay at home and make
themselves pleasant? If a man ism
willing to stay and bear his wife
company Of evenings, then he should
at least have the decency to stay an
old bachelor, and let the girl remain
at home where she has some COM
partnership.

BEAUTY CHATS
By EDNA KENT FORBES
- fragrant Accessories

Of strong perfume could ever over
come, for instance, the trace Of
stale perspiration.
Speaking Of perfumes, there is q
new little trinket in the shops that
will give just that elusive Whit Of
sweetness that every woman de-
sires. It is q small ball that hangs
on the end Of q chain, and Is made
in silver, gilt, gold or enamel, &C
cording to its price. Inside is q
tiny sponge, WHICH one saturates
with ones favorite perfume. The
odor escapes through a little I'LL
gree band running about the pen
dant. These come at all sorts Of
prices.
Another good way to use per-
fume is to rub the body with toilet
water at the end Of the bath; the
skin absorbs and gives out q deli
cate perfume. Another is to scat
ter dried flower petals in the bu-
reau drawers, 50 ones clothes take
up the sweetness; or to put tiny
sacnet bags among ones articles
Of clothing. Rubbing the neck and
hands with toilet water while
dressing makes one feel fresh and
dainty. Every time the hands are
raised to the face there is the re-
freshing smell Of the water.

"FEMlNINE STACKER" MUST
WAKE TO WAR NEED HERE AS
ELSEWHERE, SAYS MRS. FORBES

Apropos Of all this talk on thrift
Red Cross, gardening, ETC., there is a
state Of affairs here which often gives
me q laugh in my sleeve. I have
lived In Honolulu SO long as to be con
sidered q kamaafna, and while may
be a bit old fashioned in my views. II

GRAFTON" or my years. disclaim in
tention to wound the feelings of any
OF the ladies, but early found, on resi-.
dence here, that a woman who does
her own Homework loses caste. So
for the sake Of sparing- my friends
(not that personally care), do not
relate on the lanai OF the Country
Club or while Al tea at the Laniakea,
that while I have been to high school
and college, combining the classics
and music with domestic science, as
we'll as a complete commercial course,
including business law, can still re-
collect many q time, when with tin

mother taught me how to cock.

hither, was CLEANED from q yellow

fortunate neighbors, but who has now
mere mention Of former servantless
state is the most objectionable faux
pas"
Too Many Feminine SIaekers
This phase Of affairs has little to do
with the present price Of foodstuffs.
but It has great deal to do with the
practise of the, thrift which is now
being urged upon us, especially when,
as In many times the case, it has gone
hand In hand With the other sure de-
stroyer of the home, !. e., living beyond
ones means. l am not anarchistic in
my views, nor do / decry luxury and
comfort and bodily ease, when it can be
afforded, but one thing is obvious, the
feminine Stacker We have with us in
numbers too great to be ignored. 1t is
the belief Of great many people also
(whe discuss privately but are afraid
to express publicly their opinions)
that the. root of the evi! of high living,
waste and extravaganza which pre-
walls In these islands, exists in the
facts set forth in the foregoing para
graph.
Drop Pretense!
II we womer expect to really help in
this measure that is advocated, it is
time to drop pretense and artificiality,
spend less time at Tea Dansants"
and the outrigger Club and give our
men folks o little Of the service our
mothers and grandmothers used to
render; that is, as consistently as we
can with the enormous strides to-
wards ease that modern conveniences
and utilities have rendered us. In
trospection, and a iace to face private
examination of our faults Of omission
as well as OF commission, would have
an enlightening effect.
Men are all right for food commits
but It is up to the women to
acquaint them with the conditions
they must make laws to amend. Let
Us not only rcil oandages and plant

by hundreds, II was nothing to see
soldiers sniping at the police, who
were on the buildings win machine
guns. Then the officers, whose men
had deserted them for the cause, were
disarmed and later joined the cause
themselves.
Mrs. Cook tells Of one incident,
however, when the Officers were cor
rallied in one of the rnesG hotels IN
Petrograd. When they refused to sur.
render and fired into the people the
whole hostelry was demolished by the
Infatuated masses.
Mrs. Cook cannot state Just what
conditions in Petrograd now portend,
but she believes everything will come
all right in the enc. She lived too
close to the trouble to form clear
opinion Of it, and did not bother with
politics. She says the people all have
bread tickets now, but sometimes they
do not get bread. Still there Is more
of an effort, apparently, to supply
them. Everything is terribly expen'
sive.
