things that men consider all impor-
tant. women put no stress upon. and
the things that men consider too

to women.
"A woman cares more for words
than she does sor deeds. A man
may work himself to death to keep
his wife soft and easy, and protect
her from every hard wind that blows.
and she will doubt his love IL he
happens to be one Of the silent kind

state of his affections. but she will
believe that she is supremely adored

remembers anniversaries. and no.
tices what she wears. Once a man
gets this combination of treating a
woman he solves the problem OF how
to be happy though married and to
do as he pleases."
The thing that marriage has
taught me-" said the third woman,
lis that you cannot treat a husband
as IL he were a rational grown up
human being. No matter what he
is in the outside world. no matter
how important or famous, or how
many other men he commands when
he is with his wife he is nothing
but great big spoiled baby. and he
wants to be treated like a baby.
And believe me when a woman
finds out that her husband isn't a
little tin god, but a peevish baby
who can be managed exactly as you
would manage a teething infant,
she has found the answer to the
riddle of how to be happy though
married"
Correct" agreed the first man,
marriage is a great education. 1t
gives you endurance and staying
powers and makes you an expert in
diplomacy. That is the reason you
find that nearly every successful
man or woman is married"

has just been made by Clifford l..

Many of the departments of the
association are self-sustaining. the
report shows, and much of this de-
fcit is accounted for by the extra

The physical department has been
opened to the free use of wounded

the German public was so greatly
surprised by Foch's brilliant stroke;
"The hope OF the entente regard

exists as such no longer" read the
dispatch.
''The great victory OF the crown
prince has shattered a considerable
part OF the enemies fighting force,
and has resulted In the dissolution
