need OF SYMPATHY
MATTER THAT MAKES FOR HAP.
PINEsS IN THE HOME.
Wife Who Is Able to Make Her Hus-
band Talk on Favorite Topic Can
Always Be Sure OF Holding
His Interest.

One of the greatest causes of I'M
happiness In married life is the lack
of interest in each others doings after
the irrevocable step has been taken
and the newness of being always to-
gether has worn Off, remarks the De-
troit News-Tribune.
Then 1t is that unless the wife
makes the efforts to please that she
did in the counting days the husband
will go elsewhere for amusement. Yet
he is only following the natural in
stinct of humanity in seeking for sym
pathetic companionship the fault is
partly hers.
A man to be won and kept must first
be attracted and then made to feel
that he has sympathy which draws
him out and makes him talk about
what interests him most. 1t is not
enough to make him listen while he is
being talked to. For a time that will
hold him, but he will tire of always
being a listener, of always giving his
sympathy and receiving none.
To hold a man, woman must I'M
derstond and study him, she must not
be exacting, for to expect too much
only makes him feel that he wants to
give less.
a man usually goes out into the
world young; he leads a separate ex-
istence at an age when his sister is
still surrounded by her home circle.
When his work is done he has only to
think, "What shall do today that will
give me the most pleasure?"
Can anyone wonder that many years
of indulgence in this, coupled with a
larger command of money than their
sisters, should make men more selfish
should end by fixing the habit of
thinking of their own pleasure so firm
ly in their minds that 1t is practically
ineradicable?
1t may be Overpowered for a time
by strong affection and all the coun-
ter influences of courtship and early
matrimony; but later, when these
have ceased to be novelties and a
man settles down to married life, the
old habit reasserts itself.
A woman, on the contrary, is trained
In different school. When her broth.
err Is out in the world earning his liv-
ing, or at any rate, living a separate
existence, she is usually at home with
other members of the household, when
she has always to consider when any
plans or engagements, however trivial
have to be made.
Having thus to defer to the wishes
of her relations, she is duly trained
in habits of yielding to others and OF
unselfishly giving up her will ant
pleasure to them. So he in his bache
lor days is duly trained to selfishness
she in her spinsterhood is equal,
brought up to unselfishness.

Photography in Air Raids.

Photography, Of course, is playing
an ever-increasing part in the aerial
1t is now one of the
prime means of ascertaining the accu-
racy with which bomb dropping is at
tended. Contrary to the general idea.
when a place is to be bOmbarded the
process does not consist merely of a
few plucky airmen plotting their ma
chimes to the neighborhood and tax
ing big risks to try to get in lucky
shot before returning. The fire that
follows the dropping of each bomb is
photographed by aircraft from above,
so that q permanent record is made
concerning the places actually dam
aged. Nothing is left to guesswork.-

Will Need No More in
France

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Forty-fve

the American Red Cross, have been
mustered into the Army Medical

tenants. two first class sergeants,
eleven sergeants, six corporals, one

Germans Repulsed
On Wilma Front

LONDON, Aug 19-The military
situation on the entire East front has
apparently come to a standstill, though
there are hints from various sectors
that new movements are 20 be under
taken soon. For the first time in sew
eral weeks there was active infantry
fighting on the Wilma front yesterday,
when two German COMPANIES, after a
strong bombardment, attacked the Rus
sian positions southwest o. Lake
Narocz. near the hamlet of Stakhovcy.
The enemy troops were caught poin'
blank in the Russian barrsGe, and had
70 hurry back 20 their own trenches
According 70 Petrogard, the battles
in Southwestern Moldavia have ended
in A Russo-Rumanian success, the Aus
trian attacking units having been com
nle.ely repuised. after . fuctuat'ng

while the Russian and Rumanlsn
armies have evidently been reinforced.
The announcement from Berlin yes
terday OF the total number Of prison
ers taken since July 10 indicates that
the German General Staff considers
the present campaign in the east near
its end. Tho stifcning resistance o.
the Allies in Moldavia suggests that
