washing their faces, and it has just about
as much read heart interest in it. a man
hurries through his breakfast, and in his
rush to catch his car, and with his mind
full of the business Of the day, gives his
wife ham-and-eggs favored peck as
he goes by her that-is as liable To light
on the back OF her head, or the tip OF her

meaningless performance when he re-
turns home, tired and hungry, OF an
evening, and he breathes sigh Of THANK
vcn-that-is-ovcr-with when the
family ritual has been performed.
There are women who not only suffer
these duty kisses, and return them in
kind, but who insist upon them, and
remind the men who orc trying to avoid
kissing them, thes they lave forgotten
something. Such woman Is so stupid
that she does not recognize that d kiss
without passion behind it, an undesired
kiss, is an insult. She doesn't even know,
poor, dull soul, that every kiss OF obli-
cation is nail in the coffin of love.
OF course, you cannot keep thrill IN
anything YOU turn into n habit, and for
that reason the family daily kiss should
be abolished II husbands and wives
lips only met in some emotional moment
the domestic brand OF kiss would have
rs many thrills in it rs it did before
marriage, instead of being the cold,
elammy, flap-jack kind Of thing that
/ il is, and that is all that most wives
ever get,
Why do husbands and wives bore
each other so? They do, you know. Al
most any married couple who are yawn-
ing their heads off when alone brighten
up when company comes IN and look
zen years younger.
I 1t is because they don't take the
trouble to be interested in each other
When you analyze what. we call fas-
cination in person you find that it is 8
certain aliveness, n keen, vital interest IL
everything that is being said or done
Ninety per cent OF the married men wh(
wander away from home go forth IL

az their jokes, and talk to them abou
themselves, and tell them how wonder
ful they are. Practically every woman
who finds her real soul mate in SOM

Every evening, Wilmington daily commercial., 1921-12-16

The riddle of the sphinx, that every
married woman spends her life trying
10 guess, is how to keep her husband
interested in her. For it is easy enough
TO catch man, but it is q parlous Job
TO hold him, and none but the luckiest,
or the cleyerest of their sex succeed IN
doing it.
+ A thousand solutions Of the problem
of how to retain husbands affections
have been suggested One is to feed the
brute. Another is for the wife always to
keep young and beautiful, and preserve
willowy figure. But there are mani
fest obstacles in the way of the working
out of either OF these amiabh theories
The husband who is stuffed like a
Strassbourg goose is sure to develop
dyspepsia, and peck the hand that feeds
him, 10 say nothing of souring upon
domesticity in general. Nor can any
amount of wifely devotion stop the
devastating march of time for woman,
and enable her to compete IN appear
ance at middle age with a young and
blooming Happer.
1 So the conundrum of how to keep q
/ husband lover has remained one OF
tho Dundreary things that no woman
could FIND out, and a man himself has
supplied the answer
Apd he Gays it's pep.
/ In n recent divorce case o woman
testified that her husband told her that
ne mad ceased TO care for her and had
fallen in love with another woman.
SIS this woman younger and better
looking that am?" asked the wife.
"No." saiC the husband
'Whnt charm, then, has she that j
lack? demanded the wife.
"She has pep" replied the husband,
"she's alert, alive You are bored, unin-
terestcd. Her kisses thrill, yours are
perfunctory, the kisses of habit and
duty"
: There is no doubt that this man
offered the real explanation of what has
always been the greatest psychological
|, mystery in the world, and that is why
men and women, who are wildly in love
with each other when they get married
so soon fall out of love with each other
1t is because they take no trouble &c
make themselves interesting TO eacf
other. They bring no zest to their daily
I hlife. They put no punch into domes
!. ticity. and the result is that. when they
: want a thrill they have TO go away iron
