the ordeal il would be to cater to a hus-
band who could get up meal without
using everything in the ice box, and the
pantry, and soiling every pot IN the
kitchen
OF course, a woman might think that
it would tighten her labors TO have a
husband who could take his turn at the
cook stoyc, and help out with the
spring sewing, and who would sat on one
side of drop light of an evening and
darn stockings while she sat and darned
on the other side, but the Disadvantages
would far outweigh the advantages.
The ideal husband il the man who
eats what is set before him, and asks no
questions, and who looks upon his wife
as his guardian angel.
Furthermore, the woman who babies
her husband most, and makes him most
dependent upon her is the one who has
the surest hold upon him. 1t may cause
her TO take few more steps in her daily
work. but none of the steps are IN the
direction of Reno.

There rs still another reason why IT Is
inadvisable for a woman to teach her
how to cook, and that IS that 1T
rears up a critic on the hearth, than
which nothing is more aggravatIng, or
harder to endure with patience. Every
woman knows that she can bear with
Christian meckness to have her character
aspersed, her intellectual attainments
derided, even to have her taste impugncd
but that she feels like throwing things
at the head OF the person who sits down
to her table, to cat of her handiwork,
and who finds fault with it. 1t takes
no prophet to foretell that the dove OF
peace is not going to hover over that
household in which the husband casually
remarks at the dinner table that he
always browns his -four when he makes
gravy, and that he doesn't see why
the bread is SO heavy, that his rolls
never fall, and that the way he makes o
chocolate pudding is so and so, and so and
and so.
/ In cooking, as in other things, lite
knowledge is a dangerous thing, and
women should be forewarned as to how
insufferable men would be if they really
knew how to cook, by the way they act
when they only think they know how
to cook. Every man who has ever made
coffee on a camping expedition lays down
the law on coffee making to his wife
every morning during the balance of hi.

anybody beat me like that" the girl re-
tortcd, and l reflected that the remark
was like suddenly opened window
shutter upon her soul.
IL was this characteristic of Bcssl
Deans which had prompted her jour
ney TO. the Catskills, and her behavior
while with us. Just at present her whole
being was absorbed in one dcsire--that
the car she was in should beat the car
belonging to the arrogant driver in
front. That point settled she would re-
turn TO the contemplation of the best
method of getting even with me.

The offending driver ahead slackoncd

went around it, while ! followed more
slowly. And then at the foot of the
hill | put my foot on the accelerator,
not suddenly, but with gradual feed
ing of gas that | had learned acted best
with this particular car upon the st'ff
hills. ! felt the response of the engine,
and rcjoiccd, knowing that the powerful
reliable motor would bring Us steadily
To the top at almost any speed l chose
Ahead OF us, the other car, having
rounded the corner at . much greater
speed than mine. had started up the
hill at n tremendous clip. The burst OF
speed carried it along for several roads,
and then | saw the first signs of flag
ging. and knew that the victory was
mine. wanted to wait few seconds,
however, until the pull of the hill should
give the driver 50 much to do that he
would have no time TO try to crowd me
of the road, so | kept at steady
pace behind him, but kept cdging toward
! the center Of the road. As usual
thing, | never pass any one on hill,

shall we do TO help Chestnut Tree and
her children. All Of you think very
hard"
"If we could ill the covering that
holds tho nut with needle points, that
would keep them safe" said one little
fairy. who always saw the point OF
things sooner than the others.
Yes that would keep the Goblins
from carrying them or, but how will
they get out when it is time?" said
the Queen. Chestnut Tree wants her
children 10 he seen when they arc
grown"
"oh. l know what we can do" said
another fairy. When Chestnut Tree
thinks her children are full grown she
can drop them on the ground and the
Frost Fairy and her helpers can touch
them With her wands and open the
prickly coverings"
81 think that is a very good plan.
Now run off 10 Chestnut Tree and tell
her the plan" said the Queen. "and il
she likes II We viii go to work for her
at once"
Chestnut Tree was delighted when
she heard what the fairy had TO say
You shall see how handsome they
VIII be when you come 10. open them
in The fall" she said.
SO all summer Mother Chestnut
Tree smiled and was happy. for she
knew her children at last We're pro.
tected and could grow as they should
and the COLLINS could not harm them
Just as they always had done, ths
naughty G.blins came 10 gather th'
green balls 10 play with, but the
! prickly burrs soon sent them scam
/ pering back TO their homes witt
shrill cries Of anger, and the littl,
brown nuts nestled IN their soft whit,
beds inside the green covering unit
their Mother sent them scattering
over the ground under her spreadin,
branches, calling: "It is time TO wax,
up"
And the Frost Fairy and her help
ers came and found them and open
cd the burrs. and just as Chestnu
Tree had told them, they saw tn
prottiest plump, brown nut they ha,
ever seen.
And when YOU find on the ground
burr that Is not open, you may b
quite sure IL is one dropped by Cob
lin who came 10 carry it away an

Admiral Tsai Ting-kan, senior ad-
wiser to the Chinese delegation of the
Washington Armament Conference,
made a speech to women the other day
in which he told them how TO maintain
a strangle hold on their husbands.
lie said that the way 20 keep hus-
band was TO keep him on a leading
string, to keep HIM dependent, and look
ing 10 his wife as the source from which
all Of his material comforts flowed, and
he warned wives against the folly of
ever permitting their husbands TO learn
how to cook, or sew.
This is good advice which ! have fire.
quently given, myself, in thus column,
for it is far more dangerous to women
for men 10 get out of their sacred sphere
than it ever was TO men Tor women TO
break out of theirs. As have more than
once pointed out, the man who has
mastered the art of frying an egg with
out scrambling il, and who can sew on a
button without iabbing the needle
through the fleshy part OF his thumb,
is an emancipated creature over whom
woman has no real hold.
/ Heaven knows, men are far too indie
pendent of women, anyway. Clubs,
and bachelor apartments, and visiting
Wallets, are already responsible for what
/ Mr.. Wegg would call the decline and fall
off i'll matrimony among the gll1ed
youth of today. Happily, most young
men lack the price of this sort OF single
blessedness de luxe, so they are still
forced into matrimony TO get somebody
