DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES
THE GREAT STRENGTH
OF SILENCE
Continued from page s

But II che has sense enough 10 keep
her mistake to herself and put on the
loud pedal when she makes a good
trade. and cooks a good dinner. she
will convince her husband that she is
a paragon among wives. and he win
brag about her achievements TO his
fellows. If there ever was a time when
woman should put n guard upon
har tongue, and be wary about what
she says, 1t is when she talks to her
husband about herself.
And why should woman burden
her husband, ms so many women feel
they have a right TO do with all the
unpleasant things that have happen
ed in tho home during the day.
Suppose the wash woman did
fail TO come. Suppose Johnny
has been bad, and Mary and
the child next door did have a fight.
and the cat ate the cream, and the
butcher delivered a roast when you
telophoncd for chops, and Sarah broke
n plate. and you got a letter fun OF
walls from your mother, and Mrs.
Jones did not invite you to her party,
and your new hat isn't becoming.
They are all vexatious enough trifies
to you. but your husband cant help
n single one Of them. and there Is no
sense in worrying him with them.
Heaven knows. he has troubles Of his
own. and just your grist OF. doieful
news Is oftentimes the straw that
breaks the carneIs back.
After all leaky vessel Is q pretty

things that viii make each other
