THE HARDEST THING TO FORGIVE
By DOROTHY DIX
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER

What is the one thing that b
husband finds it hardest to forgive
in his wife. and a wife finds it
hardest to forgive in her husband.
and that husbands and wives find 1t
hardest to forgive in each other?
You will say infidelity, cruelty,
drunkenness. Not at all. The big.
tragic sins carry with them a GER
tain romantic dignity that in some
way, partially atones for them. and
that at least. leave us our self re-
spect. while we endure them.
We can make excuses for the
lover swept away by the tidal wave
OF a great passion. We have a IhriIi
OF sympathy for the man who re-
Verts to cave man tactics. We can
still love the. beautiful soul of the
one whose feet occasionally stum-
bic into the gutter.
The things that we cannot for
give are just the little daily ag-
gravations-the sordid little mean
nesses and weaknesses that NIL us
with contempt. land make us de-
sptse the one who is guilty of them.
They are the pebble in the shoe OF
matrimony that makes II unendur-
able to any save the saints and the
martyrs.
In discussing this subject recently
a famous divorce lawyer said. "I
have found out that husbands and
wives will forgive each other the
big sins, and that it is the little lars
and frets that lead people into the
dlNorce courts. For instance. the
one thing that a woman never for
gives a man is laziness
She VIII overlook his philandering.

every other fault, as long as re Ia a

self and look out for his own, But
the minute a man develops a ten
dency to sit down and take life easily
and loaf and allow other men to
pass him in the race, he commits TIE
objectionable sin so far as his wife
is concerned.
She can forgive him anything
easier than lack of energy, and he
might commit any crime under the
sun and be less despicable IN her
sight than to be just plain no ac-
count. There isn't a woman living
who hasn't got more respect for a
successful burglar thar she has for

tues who can't make living
of course you will say that there
are millions of women who do stick
to lazy husbands whom they have to
support, but this is partly pride, part
ly a sense OF duty and the sporting
instinct that compels us to make the
best of a bad bargain, and mostly
the appeal that such a weakling
makes to the eternal maternal instinct
in woman. But her love never survives
her discovery that the man to whom
she is married is too indolent to do a
mans part in the world. And when
you think of what a contemplate
figure a man is who is so lazy that

of men are anxious to lavish every
thing they can possibly afford upon
their families but when a man sees
his wife throwing away in idiotic
expenditure the money he has toiled
and sweated for. he also sees her
throwing away his opportunities
and wasting his life.
Money to a man means work and
anxiety and exhaustion of mind and

And the thing that husbands
and wives find it hardest to for

long as a woman is good natured,
good tempered and drives ith a
loose rein. her husband will put up
with a lot of bad cooking and bad
