We went out to dinner and I was

CLOTHES AND THE MAN
~ -" 49, By DOROTHY DIX
THE WORLDS HIGHEST PAID WOMAN WRITER

A young man Is deeply. In love
with a pretty and refined girl, who
refuses to marry him because OF his
slovenly personal appearance. The
girl admits to the youth that he has
touched her heart, and that she ad-
mires his sterling character and
clever mind, but she tells him
frankly that she balks at the pros
pect of spending her life with a
man who is not on visiting terms
with the barber. and who looks gen.
orally as IL he needed to be run
through a steam laundry ." e.
The young man is very indignant
at the girls attitude. which he con-
siders a signal illustration of fem
of values.
rs 1t not of more Importance for
a mans life TO be clean than for
his linen to be-" he demands right
eously. rs 1t not more important
for man to have walked the
straight and narrow path than for
his trousers to have a razor-edge
crease in them? Is 1t not better for
a man to have an upright character
than to wear an unwilted collar? Is
1t not better for a man to have vir-
tues that shine, than highly polished
shoes? Is not a mans attitude
towards life of more Importance
than the set of his coat? Should
not a woman judge a man by what
he is rather than by what he
wears?"
Yes. Yes. or course. Certainly.
Quite true. Nevertheless. and not
withstanding. the girl who refuses
to marry a sloppy, untidy, ILL
dressed man makes a wise decision,
and one that she has small chance
of ever repenting. For the man
who will not spruce up for his
sweetheart. assuredly will never
doll up for his wife. and only too
many men hold to the theory that
matrimony gives them carte blanche
to wear soiled collars and clothes
that look as they had been slept in,
and to sit around home in their
stocking feet. Than which there is
no quicker nor surer way to strip
away the last shred of romance that
a wife has wrapped around the man
she loves, and to make her wonder
what made her do il.
In discussing the inevitable disillu-
sions of the domestic state, women
are adjured-and rightly-to preserve,
at least, the halo that goes with per-
sonal neatness, and never to let their
husbands see them in untidy wrap
pers with their heads done up in
curl papers. 1t is held. and with
reason. that It takes a more robust
love than men possess to be able to
regard a frowsy slattern as an angel
or a goddess, or to want to hold a
hand that is badly in need OF maui
curing.
No one ever impresses upon men
the Importance of presenting a neat
and attractive appearance to their
wives. yet II dirty. sloppy woman
is a disgusting thing to a man, a
dirty. sloppy man is ten thousand times
more disgusting to a woman, because
women care more for looks than men.
and notice them more, and have keen
er sensibilities that are more easily
offended than any mans. No wom-
an can stay in love with a man who
goes about with a three-days' stub

struggling over his collar; with
