understand the situation. Be extra patient
and tender with her, and for Heavens sake
get her something to do that will occupy her
mind and her hands, and take her thoughts
away from herself.
My third tip Is GET OFF ON THE RIGHT
FOOT. Start married life rights. The old
adage that good beginning makes a good
ending is nowhere truer in life than in
matrimony.
Many men, when they marry, are so much
in love that they have not the courage to tell
their wives the truth about their financial
condition, or to say "No'' to the unreason-
able demands of their brides. Because Angel
Face wants an automobile, to live in
fashionable neighborhood. or to buy period
furniture, they crafty her. and go in debt,
and that means ultimate ruin for that family.
Remember that the average girl, up to the
time she marries has never had an expert
ence in handling money. She has no idea of
how much 1t costs to run household. She
has vague notion that bills pay themselves.
Therefore it is up to the man, who knows
just how much he can afford to spend, to
decide the scale on which they shall live.
Likewise, while the rosy glow of the honey
moon lasts, make your wife an active part
ner who will do her share towards making the
firm of Benedick e Co., success. There
isn't one bride in thousand who isn't flat
tered to death at her husband treating her
like an intelligent human De;ng instead of
baby doll, and who wouldn't be thrifty
helpmeet to him, if he would take the trouble
to develop that side of her character.
My fourth tip is GO FIFTY-FIFTY WITH
YOUR WIFE. Don't expect her to keep the
home fires burning while you roam around
It is just as much mans business to make
things cheerful and pleasant around the
house as it is womans. Don't forget that
a woman's work is the hardest and most
monotonous in the world and that she needs
recreation and change to keep her going.
Don't be tightwad. Make your wife a
definite allowance for the housekeeping, and
another for her own personal needs, and don't
ask her to give you an account of every pen
ny she spends. It is none Of your business.
She earned the money and is entitled to it.
My final tip is DON'T SPARE THE SALVE.
Apply it with liberal hand Don't fail to
tell your wife how you love her and appre-
ciate all that she does for you. Notice her
new dress. Compliment her dinners when
they are good. Remember that to woman
her husband is the audience to which she
plays. He is her career, and it is. pretty dis
couraging to spend your life trying to please
an audience that never gives you the glad
hand, and to strive, and strive, and never
know whether you succeed or not.
It is easy to be good husband because it
takes so little to make woman happy-just
little tenderness. and affection, few kind
words-that's all. Try them on your wife,
son, and you will find it the biggest paying
investment you ever made.

MY FAVORITE STORIES
By Irwin Cobb

Martin Littleton was born in East Tennes-
see When he was boy he moved to com.
munity in Texas, largely settled by people
from his own part Of the country who had
carried with them to their new home many
of the customs and traditions OF their native
mountains. There he studied law and pres
emily, having secured a license, he opened
modest law office and sat down to await the
coming of clients. anna
Almost the first person who called upon
him in a professional way was gaunt Ten
nessean whom he had known as a child. The
visitor stated that he wished to bring law
suit against neighbor, also transplanted
Tennessean to settle a dispute which had
arisen over a line fence.
''Now see here, Uncle Zach" young Little
ton said, cts too bad that tive old friends
from the same part of the world should be
having each other. Isn't there some way you
men can settle this thing out Of court?''
The old fellow shook his grizZled head.

him, we'd stand up back to back and each

around and start shootin'. But Martin, the
low-flung craven, he couldn't stand the gaff

steps and whirled around you kin believe it
or not, but the cowardly dog had done jump.

READING FOR PROFIT
Bv H. Addington Bruce

Reading for profit is obviously a different
matter than reading for entertainment. Yet
there are many people who seem singuiarly
blind to this.
They take up, say, treatise in popular
psychology, with a view to gaining therefrom
information that will be practically helpful to
them in the conduct of life. Yet they read
this treatise much as they would read novel.
That is to say, they skip along through page
passage not exactly clear to them/th hasten
forward, eager to discover what they will be
told next. -
Having finished their allotted reading for
the evening, they turn at once to something
else. Next evening-or two or three evenings
afterward-they come back to the psychological
treatise, having given it hardly moments
thought in the interval.
Thus they continue until at last the time
arrives when they triumphantly declare,
II have read this book through"
Yes, they have read it through, but how
much have they got out of itl How long will
they remember what was in it? No longer
than they will remember any work in light
fiction through which they have raced at top
speed.
Slow reading, would insist, is for nearly
all persons indispensable if they would read
really for profit. And it must be process,
not merely of following words and phrases
as they appear on the printed page, but of
making sure that their meaning will be firmly
and lastingly grasped by the mind.
This requires re-Teadng, not once, but sew
eral times. 1t requires thinking about the
words and phrases read as we'll as looking at
them Whenever possible it should also involve
discussion of them with some friend or &C
quaintance. d.
Jules Payot's warning holds true for all who
would verbally profit from their reading:
ITO read passiyely is to waste ones time.
To read Alright is to understand, to grasp with
energy the authors thought-in word, it is
to think.
"The mind must pierce the curtain of words
and penetrate to the realities by vigorous eff
fort We must never pass over phrase, a
proposition or page the meaning of which
we grasp only vaguely"
To read for profit, to put it otherwise, is
so to read that not only. will ones store of
knowledge be increased, but ones mental pow
ers will also be exercised.
And, indeed, when one does not thus read,
one may be more harmed than helped by
reading. For habitual reading of the passive,
hasty, superficial kind may have the effect of
making all of ones thinking increasingly diff
ficult. It tends to breed mental inertia not
always to be shaken off at will when it becomes
question of applying ones self to other
things than reading.

OPINIONS AND THE REASONS
" FOR THEM
BY DR.. Frank Crane

One Of the most striking truths brought
out by Professor Robinson is that "most
of our so-called reasoning consists in find
ing arguments for going on believing as
we already do
It, is not once in hundred times that
we concern ourselves with looking for rea-
sons as to why we believed a thing in the
first place, and we are mostly occupied
with the reasons that shall buttress up
opinions we have already formed. Profess
sor Robinson goes on to say we are in
credibly needless in the formation OF our
beliefs, but find ourselves filled with an
Illicit passion for them when anyone pro-
poses to rob us of their companionship.
It is obviously not the ideas themselves
that are dear to us, but our self-esteem
which is threatened. .,
A United States senator once said that
God Almighty could not make him change
his mind about the League of Nations.
To such man reasoning was not used
for the purpose Of forming opinions, but
simply to defend them after they were
| formed.
We love our notions just as we are vain
Of our person, our family, or our possess
sions
II man is born Catholic, he reasons
a great deal to prove to himself that
Catholicism is right. So If man is a
Methodist or a Democrat or Freemason,
position. But there is very little thinking
done about how he came to occupy the
position in the first place.
The reason why most of us are opposed
to Bolshevism is because we do not live
in Russia.
When anyone proposes that you examine
the foundations of your belief, this seems
to you, as MIR. Trotter says, "to carry
skepticism to an insane degree, and will
be met by contempt, 'disapproval, or con-
demnation, according to the nature of the
belief in question:
During the Civil war, for instance for a
man who lived in Georgia to raise the
question as to whether the south was right
was good enough reason for riding him
out OF town on rail.
During the late war, anyone who, after
the manner Of the fool in 1.-THE Tavern {"
would have asked whats all this shootin'
for! would be written down at once as a.
crazy person or a traitor.
one has got along rather far, therefore.
when he is willing to entertain a question
concerning the basis Of any feeling or. be-
lief in which he INDUCES. If he thinks
that to question this is bad form or wicked.
ne may rest assured that the belief is
founded on inadequate evidence.
AS Professor Robinson says, the word
my" with most of us is the beginning of
WISDOM and the indisputable fact whether
II De my dinner, my way, my dog. nv
mouse, my country or my faith, we will
not argue with you about these things
aithough we are willing enough to dispute
concerning the canals of Mars or the nro-
nunciation of Sebastopol

This is the month Of weddings.

THIS is the month Of weddings.
OF course, bridegroom cuts little
ice at his own marriage About the
only reason for his being among those also
present on the occasion, is that he gives an
excuse for the wedding, and the bride, and
the bridesmaids and flower girl, and general
fuss and Hummer.
Perhaps that is the reason that while ev-
erybody loads the bride down with expert adj
vice about how to play the matrimonial
game, nobody takes the trouble to throw even
bone Of good council to the poor BRIDE
groom. Yet he needs helping hand, as you
will realize if you will recall the expression
on the face of any man as he comes march
ing away from the altar with that bit of
tulle, and white satin hanging on his arm. It
is a look happy, triumphant, scared. The
look Of the cat that has just eaten the ca
nary, and Is beginning to wonder if 1t is
going to set well on It's little tummy.
Now if any young newly-wed should ask
me to slip him few tips about how to get
along with the angel face with whom he has
just signed up life contract, should say:
Begin, soon, by LETTING HER DOWN
EASY. During the time you have been court
ing her, you have been feeding her on sugar
plums. You have spent your time by telling
her how wonderful and beautiful she is, and
that your only aim in life was to make her
happy. Her will has been your law and you
have never been too tired, or too busy, to
trot her around to any place of amusement
t. which she wanted to go.
OF course, real life cannot be lived on that
kind Of joy-ride schedule, but slow down
gradually. Don't clamp on the emergency
brake, and stop the love making with a sud-
denness that will jar every tooth in the poor
little brides head. Don't act as so many
men do, as if your wife was mind reader
who could tell that you still loved her even
If you are as dumb as an oyster, and don't
make the mistake of thinking that just
being married to you is fun enough for any
woman. 1t isn't by long shot. Marriage
with even the best of man needs lot of pal
liatives to make it endurable, not to say en-
joyable.
My second tip Is BE GOOD TO HER. Es-
pecially be good to her if you have taken a
girl away from her home, and family, and
friends to a distant city in which she is a
stranger among strangers. No man can real
ize the awful loneliness, the heart breaking
inconsistencies of girl who. has been mem
Der of busy, chattering family, and the
center Of gay little social circle, who is
torn up by the roots, and transplanted to an
alien SOIL.
The man is away at his business all day.
The forlorn little, bride is left at home with
nothing to do, but think her own dreary
thoughts, and wish that she had stayed at
home with mother and the girls. OF course
it hurts your vanity to find your wife sodden
with tears, and to realize that she has not
been perfectly happy, just waiting excitedly
for your return in the evening" but try to
