wives aie. So the woman who yearns for
equality with men bad best stick 10 her
job and her Own pay envelope.
The woman who wants her husband to
treat her Just as he would a man friend,
can get more of that sort of chumminess
outside of marriage than she cnn in It..
That ideal of the relationship between a
man and n woman can best be carried
out in n Platonic friendship, where two
people who have n mild regard Tor each
other and n mutual taste in symphony
concerts and literature, can golf, and walk,
and talk together and enjoy each other s
best without having To endure each other 5
worst
In these DAYS, any able-bodied, intelli-
gent woman can make a good living Tor
herself at the kind of work she has picked
out because it is congenial TO her. She has
liberty to come and go as she pleases, UNI
questioned. She can spend her money as
she likes without rendering an account To
anybody. She has certain hours OF the
twenty-four absolutely for her own.
L he average married woman has to work
far harder than any business woman does.
She has no money of her own, but must
ask her husband, who is often niggardly
and grldging, for every penny. If she
has children, there is no hour of the day or
night when she is off duty. She must go
through suffering, and endure sacrifice of
which she had never dreamed.
The only thing in the world that can
repay her is the tenderness of her husband.
His kisses, warm with love, and not "A chill
peck of duty on the cheek, his murmured
words of endearment, are the magic coin
that settles the long score that a woman
charges up against matrlmony, and that
makes her rich in happiness.
The woman who has looked from the
lovely gown and soft furs in "A show win
dow to her own shabby frock and known
that she could afford nothing better be-
cause the children had to have shoes and
the coal was nearly out; the woman who
has wrestled with pots and pans, and the

and the other children fought, until her
nerves were raw-will she be soothed by
