Dorothy Dix Talks
The Lovers Cathechism-2,
BY DOROTHY DIX
werid's Highest Paid Woman Writer.

Now, if 1 were going to be married
again." continued the middle aged
woman, Il should let the sentimental
INQUIRIES go and trust to luck that the
man who was going to assume my
board bill and shopping ticket enter
tanned an affection for me that offset
the liabilities he was assuming, ana
SO I should get right down to brass
taeks.
IT shouldn't question him so much
about the state of his heart as the
state of his liver. for it's mans liver
that makes him livable or otherwise
I should want to know if he sang while
he shaved Of a morning or if he was
one who got up with dark brown
taste in his mouth. and who kicked the
cat and grouched over his food, and
whom it wasn't safe to speak to until
he had had two cups of coffee, and
the eggs and bacon had gotten in their
modifying work.
And / should ask him how he in
tended to treat his wife. should in
Quirse whether his idea of a wife was a
show window that be could deck out
with jewels and fine clothes to exhibit
the state of his prosperity Or whether
his conception of g. wife was com BIZ
nation cook and seamstress and nurse
and baby tender, and general utility
light running domestic machine, or
whether he wanted a wife who would
be a friend and companion, and bust
ness partner.
Yes before I married again 1 GER
tainly would find out whether my hus-
band was going to parade me around
to show me off, or leave me at home
while he went to enjoy himself, or
pal around with me at home and else
where because he enjoyed my society.
And If I were going to marry again
I should certainly try to get a line on
the temper and disposition of the man
with whom I was proposing to spend
the next forty or fifty years.
st would want to know what he was
likely to say to me when he quit tell
ing me I was the most beautiful and
wonderful thing on earth and how he
worshiped me, and had to discuss the
bills withsme. I should want to know
if he was the sort OF man that would
take out on me all the temper and
nerves, and irritation that he dare not
expend on his clients or his patients,
or his customers because my whole
happiness as a wife would depend on
the answer to that question.
"And 1 would ask the man l was
going to marry for his views on, the
financial question and whether he
thought a wife was entitled to an in
dividual pocketbook, or should be
grateful to her husband for permit
ting her to toll for her board and what
clothes he chose to give her.
And I imagine if my husband were
going to marry me again he would
skip lightly over the love stuff, and
try to ascertain whether 1 masqueraded
my temper under the alias of nerves,
and whether had the curtain lecture
habit, and what sort of a-cook was.
Perhaps widows and widowers do
put their number twos thru this sort
Of sane lovers catechism instead OF
the old fool one, and that is why Sec
ond marriages are generally happier
than first"

is estimated THAT it will take five years
to catch up with production sufficient
to supply the demand. What is true
in the automobile industry is also true
in many other industries which face
demands greater than their capacity
for production. The outlook for pros
perity for a period is the brightest in
the history OF the country. and that be-
ing true it follows that prices will
continue to rule high. Under such
conditions as now prevail it isn't rea-
sonable to expect marked drops in cost
to consumers

Lloyd George calls the attention of
Americans to the fact that cannon de
Valera, self-styled president of an
Irish republic, is not only using the
same arguments, but the same words,
as Jefferson Davis did when that lead
er was advocating and defending the
secession of the south. Members of
congress who favored a resolution ap-
proving the creation OF an Irish re-
public, it is pointed out by the Los An
geles Times, had ancestors who died to
prevent the southland from having a
little INSTRUMENTATION OF its own.

in any other land. Practically all of
those who oppose the league covenant

imperfections, and then to apply q
yarnish. or, IL desired. the so-calied
varnish stains may be applied in two
coat work. On rough splintery floors
that could not be made to present
good appearance by the use of var
nish, it is customary to apply so-called
floor paint which contains color pig
ments of various kinds and dries to a
very hard, DURABLE. wear-resisting sur
face.
Another method of finishing floors
is to scrape them thoroly so that
smooth surface may be offered. After
lightly sandpapering, a coat of liquid
wood filler is applied, ana then two
coats of varnish, allowing at least a
day between coats. Many painters
omit the filler and apply three coats
of varnish, with excellent results.
