DOROTHY DIX'S TALK
A HUSBANDS AUTHORITY.
BY DOROTHY DIX,
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.

Five years ago a nice couple got
married. Two children came to bless
their home, and they lived happily UNI
til the wife became afflicted with the
dancing mania.
The husband did not object to a rea-
sonable amount of fox-trotting, but
when the wife began to spend most Of
her time at cabarets and roof gardens,
to the neglect of her home and chill
dren, he protested against it, and
warned her OF where the path upon
which she had started always ended.
Finally he forbade her to go to GER
tain cafes of doubtful reputation, and
to associate with the women with hec-
tic pasts whom she had met at these
places,
This Infatuated the wife, and she
packed up her trunks and ven back
TO her mother, after telling her hus-
band that he was a cruel and over
bearing tyrant whom no self-respect-
ing woman could endure, and that she
would not let any mere husband in
terfere with her personal liberty to do
as she pleased. So there!
And another home is wrecked. And
two little babes are orphaned,
The question Of how far a husband
has the right to control his wife's ac-
uons Is one Of the parlous problems
that 10 Solomon has yet arisen with
wisdom enough to settle. 1t is the
ever present bone Of contention In the
family circle, and the cause of half of
the domestic fights that the divorce
court is called upon to referee.
Certainly in this day of equal rights
no wife comedies that her husband has
authority over her, and while brides
stu promise at the altar to obey their
husbands, everyone recognizes that the
vow of obedience is merely a compli-
