that she and her husband had found per-

husband were to-day as happy with each
other as the day they were married.
The exact opposite Of this arrangement,

1t is very simple-stick to facts. And

One OF my friends lamented that her
husband no longer cared for her. And
talked little later of having her hair
washed every eight weeks! My head gets

oIXTY per cent of the reason we are as
happy together as we were on our
wedding day more than four years
ago is that my husband and are brutally
honest with each other.
We practice candor that to persons Of
another kind of thought must, and know
does, seem horrible.
Yet 1t is the only way to secure happi-
ness. The real Rock of Ages is truth
fact. Matrimony has been likened to a
sea. 1t is. And the barks of love that
have been wrecked upon it because the
two shippers fooled each other with COM
pass readings, false observation upon the
weather and each others seamanship are
wretchedly innumerable. Stick to facts
and you are safe in any weather. Brutal
honesty is the true science of navigation
on the matrimonial sea-

Says the Distinguished Prina Donna

those familiar with the artistic life of New
York know, is that Of the grand opera
prima donna, Geraldine Farrar. and her
husband, Lou Tellegen, the distinguished
actor. These two spend every moment
together that they can.
How could such opposite ways of prac-
tising matrimony have the same result?
Miss Farrar here very frankly explains
her method, revealing for the first time
among other intimate and interesting
things, how she was induced to forsake
the paths Of single blessedness by Mr..
Tellegen.

The same method holds true of all our
lives. or course, no day that starts
with wife in hfdeous curl papers and so
on at the breakfast table can be happy.
Such disharmonies must have their effect

brutally frank at once to me about my ap-

this / quite naturally never appear that

It ended in the smoking out of Ebert and the indifference public sentiment in Germany
 Two main things discovered One that the Ebert prepared to at the first suspicion danger It also brought that the nde pendent socialists the rivals of Ebert, planning set soviet form of government in Germany. It well for the military element to get these two facts before the German people and let them sink in They have shown to the people the direction in which the country drifting.
