strong in most women. Steaks and
chops are the most expensive cuts
of meat.

NAV be cooked quite as quickly as

Immediately after forming and

! Marriage was not to be permitted
to interfere with the individual lib
critics of Jack and his bride. Per-
haps they forgot about bills, social
demands and other matrimonial re-
sponsibilities!
Three months have I been trying
to create a social splash. At least
that's what Jack calls my social sue

Jack hasn't been very helpful. I've
had to manage it myself. Indeed.
Jack has complained, more than
once.
Must we go out tonight?" he has
asked at breakfast when I've re-
minded him of an engagement for
the evening. Really nothing except
out of his deep chair in his W liv-

Your Health
tBy DIR. II. ii. Bishop

Inactivity and approaching old
age ind many men unprepared.
When a vigorous, red blooded man
who has always been very active
and busy suddenly r~etires, and be-
gins a or less inactive life, he
must begin also to watch his health
habits.
Active men usually can eat
heartily and somewhat carelessly be-
cause the exercise which they get
daily enables their bodies to throw
OF their burden Of poisons. Inac-
tivity suddenly changes the whole
routine.
The man, who has been used 70
high living while active forgets that
he cannot keep up such habits when
he r~etires. Hence there is a lack
of equilibrium which sooner or la
ter shows itself as govt, rheumatism,
or obesity.
Govt is characterized by sudden
n painful Inflammation of the
small joints. particularly those OF
the great toe. accompanied by a de-
post of poisonous material called
sodium urate.

| money we have.
There had been morning bridge at
several of the incest houses; philan-
thropies to which / contributed
coolies of time instead of checks; l
had managed a paying rummage
sale, and nearly died of the flu I'd
taken from the old clothes: we ran
my desk with my other bills.
But that rummage sale fixed my
popularity with some of the most ex-
elusive matrons of the city. We were
getting mor invitations than we
could afford to accept.
1t simply broke my heart when we
were invited to join a golf club. and
Jack turned it down. We couldn't
afford that. he explained. Some
times I fancy Jack is barely recon-
ciled to giving his time to social ar
fairs.
And I'm sure that the dear boy
hasn't discovered how expensive it is
to go about as we've been doing. It's
50 necessary, however, as a kind of
investment for future profit.
Once Jack asked me quizzically if
1 didn't think him competent to man
age the business end of matrimony in
his own way! He wasn't finding
fault, he was only teasing me. He
went on to say that we hadn't had
a quiet week at home after our first
month.
Row the fact is that if I didn't get
Jack out with money people. he'd
| settle down contentedly to his books
and his chess and all my hope of liv-
ing on the boulevard would go a.
glimmering!
I will not stand for that. Poverty
has played too big a part in my life.
My big trouble is not going to be
with our future, it's now-while I'm
making my social investment.
Everytime l chance to open that
drawer in my desk, those bills re-
mind me what it costs to keep go
