BY BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

If you have attained the age of
discretion. or indiscretion, for that
matter. it il highly probable that at
some time or other you have seen
enacted on the stage a play COM
pounded after The following we'll
known recipe: .
Take a young, middle-aged or ev-
en- near-elderly couple that have
been stepped in domestic happiness.
If Of broiling age, they have prob
ably just completed an Ideally happy
honeymoon. II Of roasting age,
they have perhaps been stepped for
10 or IS years. If older. the steep
ing has been going on longer.
Now introduce one perfectly good
vampire" who may be either tough
or tender. according to the taste Of
the playwright. In this recipe the
"vamp" stands for the brisk fire"
that the cook book insists will burn
things If not carefully watched.
The brisk fire" starts things going,
and while everything seems to be in
the greatest danger, the chef-in
the person of the playwright-in-
PRODUCES a fourth ingredient that
puts check on the too rapid cook
ing of the domestic goose.
The fourth ingredient is none
other than the true-blue family
friend who agrees to make property
love to tile wife for the purpose Of
making the husband jealous. You
recognize the old reliable plot that
you have seen a thousand times; it
is as safe as mothers bread, as
sane as roast mutton.
Recipe Bad in Reality.
But in real life, alas. things do
not work out like the old reliable
stage formula which might be en-
titled: "A Cure for Husbands" If
the husband is really in the tolls of
"yamp," he will not see things
at their face value. His wife in
some mysterious way becomes an
obstacle to his happiness and her
fond and foolish strategy may fur
nish him with the excuse for
which he has been looking.
And sometimes the susceptible
gentlemen of real life who responds
to the wife's languishing glances
does not realize he is part of plot
and that the neglected wife has no
,ise for him at all, but is merely
+ flirting as part of the game.
Also the husband, who has never
had any. patience with the sauce for
the goose sauce for the gander
theory, as far as women are con-
cerned, now regards himself as a
domestic martyr whose own pee
cadi!los are amply justified by the
conduct Of his wife. The sympathy
that even the most hagrantly sin
ming husband is apt to feel at times
for wronged wife and which has
been the cause Of innumerable rec
onciiiations is lost by such mis-
taken tactics.
"The hair Of the dog that bit you
IS a poison rather than an antidote.
when applied as cure to an inn
questionable husband. 1t works out
beautifully on the stage, and if you
want to see husband get his just
deserts after this tit-for-tat fashion,
please pay anywhere from so cents
to 81, plus the war tax on theater
tickets, to see it done up brown.
Then come home with firm de-
termination to reverse the action of
this fairy story in real life.
For any woman who flirts, either
to teach her husband a lesson or
for her own amusement, is delib-
erately pulling the foundation stones
from under her home. All that she
succeeds in doing IS to shake his be-

lief in her, and to defile his IDEAL
of her goodness and purity.
Grounds for Jealousy.
There are several things to be
considered in this great question of
iealousy--first, have you really got
anything tangible to be jealous
about7 Is there an actual, indubit-
able "vamp" menacing your hearth
stone, or are you offering your soul
to the green-eyed monster to feed
upon because of vague apprehen-
sions that there might, could. would
or should be some one?
Do not look at every womane of
your acquaintance in the light of
possible rival. Suggestion is a
potent agency; your very suspicious
may be the match that starts the
fuse
If your troubles are real, and
there is an actual inudubitable
"vamp" menacing your domestic
peace, the one sovereign remedy
alas, that it has not been put on the
stage!--is horse sense. 1t is an al
most impossible formula to follow
when raw agony consumes ones
heart and soul and flying off the
handle is an almost automatic
process. But in the long run ut is
the only cure.
Beating the "vamp" at Own Game.
You have got to beat the vampire
at her own game by making your
husband happier at home than away
from it. This means good meals, "a
comfortable house. no nagging and
no cross-questioning. The strong
hold of the vampire is that she plays
upon mans weakness. she discov-
ers his besetting vanity and she
makes of it harp of a thousand
strings, and she is ready and willing
to play tune on every one of them.
If he is vain about his appearance.
his success in business, his popu-
larity, his skill in out-of-door sports.

the fattering unguent., Let us con-
trast this with the nagging. faultN~
finding and general behavior of a
poor woman whose nerves are rasp-
ed to pieces by jealousy, and it is
not difficult to see why John leaves

unlike flies; they are more attracted
by molasses than vinegar.

the questions want to ask you:
When a boy is taking girl home
from party, should he pay her car
fare?
I heard boy once remark that it
was girls place to throw a slight
hint such as If she wanted to go
home with certain boy to say, are
you going my way. I though it was
a boys place to ask girl IL he
wanted to take her, home. Will you
please tell me which is proper. ]
What should girl say to the boy
that takes her home just before
leaving him to go into the house.
Is 1t proper for her to stand and
talk to him or not.
On being introduced to anyone is
1t necessary to shake hands besides
saying how do you do.
Is it proper to shake hands with
a gentleman you have not seen for
months because he has been out Of
the city. .-.

can get book on plain etiquette.

indeed, II when ready to graduate
from high school you write a letter
such as this. Before specializing in

course in spelling, punctuation and
grammar. 1t Is really serious and
not funny, to spell words like this. ]
can excuse the writing, Of course, but
you should not, yourself, either the
writing or spelling.
You will find book on social Gus

world about you is an excellent book.
Notice the little ,courtesies that in
others you admire. Certainly q boy
should pay the car. fare. II he is
taking you home, and 1t is his place
to ask you. When there are several
being introduced at one time, 1t is
awkward to shake hands; otherwise
1t is customary, but not necessary.
