"HOME AND MOTHER" MORE THAN WORDS.

Donna and were talking the other
day about life in general and 1 said
something to her about the fact that
men seemed perfectly willing that
woman should have ''the home for
her particular job. She agreed with
me and then she said, Have you ever
noticed that few men fall in love with
girl in her own home? A man meets
a girl at dance, at a restaurant, on
the tennis courts, or even in some
other girls home, and promptly falls
in love with her. He proposes after
rides, theaters, dinners, and all the
usual preliminaries, and then careful
ly puts her in an environment in which
he has never seen her. Many a man,
Margie. has been very much surprised
to see how differently the girl that he
had never seen before. except in even-
ing dress, street costume or sporting
togs, looks in gingham frock and
smudgy apron, her face unbecomingly
red from the unaccustomed leaning
over the kitchen stove.
''If ever marry again." continued
Donna. .T shall insist that the man
who wishes to be my husband shall
see me in my home"
''Oh. you unconscionable flirt," ac-
cused. You know very we'll, Donna
Tenny, that you never are as pretty
in your whole life as when you emerge
from the kitchen after you have been
messing up one Of your wonderful SAL
ads or desserts.
Nevertheless" / told Donna, going
back to my first thought, 81 really

why man is perfectly willing to del
egate certain duties-certain work TO

come after the conference In time

The Western Union smashed an
other point in President Wilson's
labor policy by Its action. His proc

A Fake Cure for Husbands.
By DOROTHY DIX
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER.

I asks her to lunch, wife believes they
are keeping a rendezvous and is
ready to set the police on them.
II husband shows the slightest at
tention to any of his female rela-
tives, wife cannot be convinced
that it is just family affection and
| not sentimental interest, while as
for his female employees, you can't
4 tell her that the reason he took his
stenographer out to dinner was
simply because he had kept her
/ working long past her dinner hour
and wanted TO give her some little
treat as a reward for doing extra
labor, and that neither he nor the
stenographer entertained any feel
ing toward each other that two men
in the same relationship would not
have felt.
II is pitiful to think of the thou
sands of wives who torture them
selves unnecessarily about flirta-
tions their husbands never indulge
in, and who sgonize over the love
affairs their husbands never have
and who make of their jealousy a
! monster who devours not only their
] happiness. but that of the unfortu-
nate men to whom they are mar
ried.
For the Jealous wife Is just as
great an affliction to her husban nd
as she is to herself.
All of US know men who have
simply withdrawn from society be-
cause their wives jealousy has
driven them out Of it. II they were
decently civil to another woman at a
party, or danced with another wo-
man or showed any pleasure in
meeting any old woman fried, they
had to endure such a storm of re-
proaches, tears and suspicious when
they got home that it was not worth
the price And we all know men
, who have quit taking their wives
out because they had to keep their
eyes fastened on the ground or on
their plates, or else their wives ac-
cused them of looking too hard at
some other woman and trying to
get into a filtration and rather than
be spied upon and falsely accused
they prefer to remain at home.
II never sens to have occurred to
these Jealous wives that their
Jealousy is its own undoing, and
that when they accuse their hus-
bands of flirting with other women.
! they are putting the idea of flirta-
tion into the mems head. More
than that, they are justifying the
men in flirting, for any man with the
spirit of a mouse would certainly feel
that as he had the name he might as
well have the game.
Many woman's jealousy Of a pref
tier woman has called her husband 4
attention to the other woman so- the
first time. Let alone his belief an
himself as a settled married man who
was done with making eyes at pretty
girls, or sustaining other than pla-
tonic relationship with the fair sex,
respect for his wife would have kept
him in the fold of domesticIty. But his
wife's continual suggestion that he
was still fascinating and a devil OF
a fellow among the women, lee him
into philandering.
The Jealous wife also Ignores one
OF the basic laws OF human nature

well. Donna, why not? Most men
want to have all the say about these
things. They seem to be perfectly
willing a woman shall work, but they
want to tell her the kind of work she
must do.
II think. my dear. the time will
come and that very shortly, when il
will be seen that women are fitted for
any kind OF work, Just as men are
