THE MAN WHO is THE BOSS
AND KNOWS ABOUT WOMEN
Is Atooys Advertising the Fact Until People Begin Wonder
HoD His Wife Endures It-He Is Very Tiresou,e

But don't you let her. You show her
that you're the boss"
He's a terrible joker. All his re-
marks are accompanied by signif
cant laugh, which Is meant to indicate
that he's joking, but he means what he
says all right He resumes his fero-
cious look Immediately after the joke
so that there will be no mistake about
his meaning
ISN'T he tiresome? Sometimes you
i pity his poor wife for having such a
mean, cruel husband. Then you begin
to wonder whether he is so much Of n
boss as he thinks he is. You have Il
certain knowledge of women yourself.
and you somehow can't see any woman
enduring that kind of thing for so long
without some kind of Comeback. You
have n sneaky feeling that if he really
we're such a brutal, bossy sort of per-
son, he wouldn't be so proud Of It. And
then your pity for his poor wife changes
its reasons but deepens it's intensity.
How does she endure his everlasting
boasting and blowingT How sick she
must get of his eternal "That's n
woman, know EN- How she must
long to come right out and say, "Oh
you don't at all One of ems been
managing you for thirty years and you
haven't even found it out yeti" How
often she must control desire to wink
at some other woman when this fear
some tyrant Of hers is speaking his lit,
tie piece. How does she stand It.
He doesn't fool anybody at all with
his fierce glance and his ominous words.
He just bbres everybody. He makes
women glad he isn't their husband. lie
makes younger men determine never TO
get like him. He makes unmarried
people shudder and wonder why there
has to be any boss in married life, any
how. He's very, very tiresome!

Wants Advice

Dear cynthia - Being constant
reader OF the EVENING PUBLIC LEDGER,
and reading the advice given TO others
by your good self, I am taking the lib
ertv of writing and asking your ad-
vice and opinion OF a girl went with.
I went with this girl for about three
months. taking her to shows. until
few days ago I received letter from
her telling me not to come 10 see her
anv more as she does not want TO be
a heart-breaker BY this she means, as
we are Of different nationalities (Which
| did not know until receiving the let
teri. and like her very much She
does not want anything 10 be serious.
as II would have been II I kept taking
her out. and she would not think OF
marrying anybody of a different religion.
She wrote me this letter. as she did not
have the nerve to tell me so personally.
Do YOU think she should have told me
what nationality she was the first night
I met her. although we did not speak
on the subject, but she knew what ma
tiouality l was? Should she have gone
TO shows with me, knowing all the time
of the difference" Should I speak TO her
when we meet on the street?
GOGGLES.
II does not seem necessary TO tell ones
life history when meeting a man or
woman for the first time; in fact reti-
cence is n thing 10 be admired. This
girl appears TO be honorable. for she
wants you 10 know that she would not
marry one whose religion differs from
| hers.
or course. she carried II too far by
saying not to go see her again.
II would be sensible to write her a
friendly little note saying that she
must not take you too seriously. You
had simply wanted to be friends and
that you had enjoyed her companion
ship very much.
That you realize that mixed mar
riaEes wheu religion Is in question. are
seldom happy, and quite agree with her
on the matter; that as you understand
each other on this matter you see no
reason why you should not be friends,
but. OF course, II she still prefers you

Here are the reasons I think these
hair curriers' ought to be remarkably
good In the first place they are made
Of rubber. This means that they can.
not cut the hair. II also means that
the elasticity Of the rubber should press
harder against the hair when stretched,
and thus make firmer, more lasting
wave. And in the second place they
are of very convincing size and shape.
Even their price is within reason. for
they cost but twenty five cents for four.

THE use Of ones best napkins every

Of these sets is such to warrant their

Dear Madan-How can ] dry-clean a
white net veil two yards long?
MRS. r. NJ W.
The best way to clean the veil would
be to pin It down securely on the ironing
board and then rub 1t with carbon tetra-
chloride, which can be bought at the
drug store. Use a soft cloth and rub
firmly, but not roughly enough to tear
or stretch tho veil. Continue rubbing in
one direction in one place until the veil
is dry before going on TO another place.

Mothers Cost Less
 Than Policemen
BY JUDGE HENRY NEIL, Father of the Mothers Pension Move

u1cnt t0 AmeffCd Recently two little boys were picked up by policemen at nearly midnight, wandering in the streets of Chicago. they were taken to their home, where the policemen found their mother had just returned from her work. scrub bing in a downtown office building. and was just beginning her own wash ing for family of five.
 An adequate Mothers Pension would have enabled this mother to stay at homo all the time. the responsibility of rearing five children is all that one woman should be expected to under take.
 Cook county. Illinois. will pay this year nearly half a million dollars in Mothers Pensions and over ten million dollars to the police.
 The one city of New York will pay this year over forty million dollars for police.
 The forty states now operating the Mothers Pension system will pay near ly fifteen million dollars this year to mothers for caring for their owr children.
 The principal business of policemen at present is to prevent hungry child ren from stealing.
 The proper primary business of z policeman is to see that every hungry s.hiid has food and a mothers care SC that it will not steal.
 When more money Is spent fol ~ lcrs' Pensions the taxes to pay Inc police will decrease.
 W costs the taxpayers less to hir, mothers to caro for children than does Co hire policemen. Why not hir, the mothers?
