By Mrs. Elizabeth Thomps

Dear Mrs. Thompson: am a young
man II years of age. married and have
daughter little over one year old.
] do not get along with my wife any
TOO well. We often quarrel and both
OF us get as angry as FIRE. She, without

My sympathy goes out to your wife.
1t is enough make her cross all the
time to have a husband who does not
love her and the strain of caring for a
baby. There is great possibility that
her irritableness comes from some
physical disturbance.
Your faith in the other woman is
unwarranted. She is not honorable be.
cause she is stealing the love of an.
other woman's husband. Something is
wrong with her self-respect or she
would treat you as an acquaintance
and stop all close relationship between
you.
Be more considerate to the mother
OF your child. A little love will work
wonders in your home. Your wife will
De less irritable and more the girl you
loved when you married her.
You, as we'll as the other girl. have
lost your self-respect and sense of
honor.

AS a Woman Thinketh
BY Helen Rowland
Copyright, 1920, by The Wheeler
Syndicate. Inc)


Every man thinks
That. If a woman tells her age she
must be fibbing-and if she doesn't,
she must be antique.
That, if she is sweet and cordial to
him, she is trying to arouse his inter
est-and If she is cold and Indifferent,
she is trying to pique his vanity.
That if she believes all the flattering
headed little fool-and if she doesn't
she must be a hard-hearted little
cynic.
That, if she is arrayed and ready to
receive him when he calls she has
been sitting there waiting for him
and if she isn't, she is upstairs primp-
ing for him.
That if she permits him to kiss her,
any man could-and if she doesn't,
NO man could!
That if he offers her an inexpensive
gift. she will think him penurious-
and If he offers her a costly one, she
will think him serious.
That if she wears fluffy clothes and
high French heels, she is probably
frivolous and vain-and if she goes in
for mannish tailored suits and common
mime and unnatural.
That if she agrees with everything
lie says, she is angling for him-and if
she disagrees with anything he saws.
or insists on having her own way. she
is 'nagging' him.
That il she isn't in love with him,
she must be in love with somebody
else and that if she isn't in love with
somebody else she must eventually fall
in love with HIM.
That there are only two kinds of
women in the world
Those who talk Ibsen and Schopen-
hauer and feminism-and those who
talk styles and baby-talk, and read
Harold Bell Wright.
Those who are more insipid than cup
custard-and those who are more in
sidious than champagne.
Those who say Come hither"-and
those who say. Sir"
Those whom he dare not kiss-and
those whom he dare not stop kissing.
Those who are trying to lure him
and those who would try to reform"
him.
Those who are too good for him"
and possess all the virtues and perfec-
lions Of angels-and those who possess
all the piquancy of caviare and al. the
Righteousness of little demons.
And the only thing that no man ever
thinks about a woman, is that she NAV

Woman Thinks
CAREER VS.. MOTHERHOOD.

she continued her work In behalf of
women. She seemed to work even bet

understanding of her husband, Even
when little baby girl was born to
the couple the young mother continued
her practice and her so-called feminist
work just the same.
Her most recent achievement in
combining her career and her mother
hood was made a few days ago when
she attended an important convention
In a city some distance from, her home.
When the convention was called she
said she was sorry, but her baby was
so very young she could not think Of
leaving her yet, and so although there
was nothing she would rather do than
attend the meeting. she would have to
stay home. Mr.. Doctor Husband was
Of very different opinion, however,
and he decided that the whole family
would attend the convention. While his
DOCTOR wife went to conferences and
meetings he would play nurse girl in

Rabbi Stephen s. sWise stated re-
Gently in a discourse on what Shall

that there is no conflict between a Ca
reer" and wifehood and motherhood
Whether that statement is absolutely
true or not Is very doubtful in the
minds of many people, particularly IN
the minds of the men and the ANTS,
There is one little woman, however,
who has proved without a doubt that
there need be no such conflict
She is a pretty and very feminine
woman doctor who lives in large city
of the Middle West Like most of the
women doctors she has long been a
powerful force and ardent worker for
the advancement of the women of her
community. She was in a position to
know more about women and under
stand their needs better than the or
binary woman and she used her knoWl-
edge for all it was worth. Aside from
