TAKING THE HUBBY SHOPPING
Big Chief of the Household Learns
What Trouble the Wife Always
Has to Experience.

As to the ACCESSIBILITY of taking ones
husband to the shops. much may be
said on both sides, observes Simeon
Strunsky, In Harper's Magazine. On
the one hand, 1t is certain that after
he has spent three hours In a chutr
while his wife tries GA spring suits. Il
man will have very definite idea Of
what women suffer in the daily task
The next time his wife comes home
from the shops with n headache he is
likely to be more sympathetic.
But then again it may be TINT the
memory of his own bitter ordeal viii
prevail, and he will carry away with
him II more vivid sense of the utilities
in which the life Of woman is spent. Ii
all depends on the in,ta, of course. But
the husband endowed With just IL bit
of philoseplIie reflection. planted three
solid hours in u t;Ipestry chair, in an
audience of 300 women and 10 sales
girls, Will watch the strained ana
tired faces, the trying$-oh and divest-
ings, the search AFTER the unatt:tinable
ideal, the tih,n purchase made more
out of weariness than ou of satlsfae-
ton; and he cannot help asking him
self; For whom is II an?" And he
will say to himself, -''For Ms males!'
And 1t will make him thoughtful.
Taking along ones A.t!:'band to the
store us critic and lu!.aiser is of no
use ut all. In the first place, his prn-
ciples of criticism are utterly unlike
a womuns. His criticism is of the TO-
mantle, ilnpressionistk school. lie
looks III his wife in the green cloak
with fur edging and says, II like that"
Or else he slyS, .'Iou look We'll in
that" AS If the mere fact that Il
woman looks we'll in IL green coat or
that she likes it We're the deciding
factor.
Woman belongs, in the matter Of
dress, to the scientific school of criti-
cisln, which bases itself on universal
Observation-Disclosures, Tame, Brune-
tiers. 1t Is criticism which does not
ask whether II woiran locks well in
green cloak trimmed with fox, but
says: How does this green cloak tit
into that womans life, har tempera-
lnent, her likes, her friends, her duty
Of being duplicated by the WOMAN next
door, On the other hand?'
A man likes his wife's new dinner
gown when 1t aooks we'll on his wife
La the shop. A woman is bound to
think of the gown in relation to the
wallpaper and the lights at home. the
fact that she had u d.rk-red dinner
gown year before last, the fact that
her color Is somewhat higher than 1t
WAS two years ago, that She has taken
on three pounds in weight, that her
husbands income Inns materially in
creased since last year, and that next
year people Will be wearing greens
and purples.
