Making More Money
BY Solving Husbands Problems

when Miss Dora Meade graduated
from wellesley all OF her friends took
It for granted that she would go in for
ono Of the more "high-brow" profess
sions-that she would become an interior
decorator, or an expert in languages or
even a lawyer. But Miss Meade knew
that all these roads were closed to her.
They necessitated long study anu a

she would be poorly paid. SO. as she

chronological order of the story.
One of the first things which she
noted from her position behind the coun-

had in selecting gifts for their wives,

Most of them would buy something in a
hurry and then rush out with, the con-

this that Miss Meade suggested to the

her college training stood her in good
