DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

I Listen patiently to men when they
discourse upon their favorite indoor
! topic, which is women's clothes and
women's folly in trying to make
| themselves beautiful though ugly,
but never be silly enough to be in
fluenced by their opinions, for men
! say one thing about women and do
/ another.
If you will believe men, the thing
they admire most in woman is the
natural state and remaining as home.
ly as God made them. You would
think they dotted on bald foreheads
and sallow cheeks, and shiny noses
and slinky hair, and the costume they
admired most was made of some
durable material that never wore
out and whose style never changed
! from year to year.
! But, hist, sister! Did you ever see
man out with a woman that looked
! like that? No. He would die sooEer
than take her out to dinner It is

dolls that men run after-and don't
you believe them to the contrary.
So stick to your powder box, and
your rougS pot, and your good
clothes. And while your husband
may grumble and knock them, he'll
still be grumbling and knocking them
long after you would have lost him
if you had taken his advice. AS for
fifty being too old for a woman to
make herself attractive, why, that's
nonsense. She is just beginning to
be young then. DOROTH DIX.
Dear Miss Dix-What would you
do if you were gay and pleasure-lov'
ing and were married to a man who
never wanted to go anywhere?
My husband is very good to ma
except for this. I am young and ]
don't like homework.
UNDECIDED WIFE.
Answer: Why, 1 would try to gel
a little better perspective on mar
riage as a whole than you have al
present, Undecided Wife. woulc
try to think of it as a bargain In
which you have to give something
for what you receive and I'd try tc
make the best of 1t.
Suppose you don't like homework
Mighty few are enraptured with theil
occupations, and there's not one
worker in the world-not even the
highest-priced grand-opera singer OF
a million-dollar movie star-wht
doesn't get sick and tired of his o.
her job at times. The main thin&
for you to remember is that you hav'
undertaken to make a man a com

by taking your pleasure in the aft
ernoon? Surely there are enough
hen luncheons, and matinees, an
movies, and picture shows, and te'
dances, to furnish any woman witt
all the diversion she needs.
Women make q great mistak
when they try to drag their husband
out to parties. No man who is on
amusing himself until 2 or o'clocl
in the morning can compete wit
the man who goes to bed early afte
quiet evening at home and bring
rested nerves and a clear mind to hi
business next day.

Fighting the Boil Weevil With
ArSenatA


T. J. r., Arabia, Ga, writes:
We have been using calcium
arsenate to kill the weevil, but
have had considerable trouble
in that many times there would
be too much breeze and no dew.
Is a liquid spray Of calcium
arsenate and water used in the
day time effective?
A very large number OF demon
STATIONS were made by our agents
last year to determine the merits
of the various poison mixtures
which it is proposed to use against
the boil weevil. The conclusions
reached in a general way are as
follows:
During the, early stages of the
growth Of the cotton plant, a syrup
mixture can often be used with
some profit and advantage. We
found that this mixture could be
made at home probably more cheap
ly than it could be bought. The
Nomenclature proved to be thor
oughly effective. We suggest as a
Nomenclature the use Of one pound
of standard grade calcium arsenate,
two gallons Of water and one gal
lon of low-grade syrup. This mix
ture should be made up just before
it is to be used. A thorough stirring
is essential. On standing this mix
ture deteriOrates through the chemi-
cal changes which occur, and when
used otherwise than in a fresh con-
dition, may burn and injlre the
foliage of the cotton plant. hen
the cotton attains a larger size and
branches out, the syrup mixture
can no longer be used effectively.
From that date forward, one must
rely on the thorough and uniform
busting of the cotton plants. 1t
will be troublesome to do this in
the face of a strong wind. The
busting had best be done in the
evening or early morning when the
air is likely to be less disturbed
than at other hours of the day. A
good deal of the success attending
the use of calcium arsenate in the
dust form depends on the character
of machinery used to make the APP
plications. Our experience and OBJ
ServatiOn lead to the conclusion that
good equipment for this purpose is
fundamental to the attainment Of
success. Many, Of the cheap busters
now on the market are quite in.
effective. Calcium arsenate cannot
be used in the form of a LIQUID
spray. This much has been def
niteIy established, Tt is important
to remember that only a standard,
guaranteed grade Of calcium arse
nate should be used in any event.

much money he was S6ItIIlS III OlNOt
to run business property.
AS for a woman expecting her hus-
band to turn over his pay envelope to
her without opening it, I think that
is demanding more of him than any
man Of spirit will stand. 1t makes
the man feel like a slave who is driV-
en- from one task to another. [ am
firmly of the opinion that any one
who earns money has a right to
handl cit. Heaven knows, in these
DAYS, when it takes all that most of
us can make to pay the living eX-
penses, that is about all the fun we
get out of it.
OF course, in exceptional cases,
where a man has, as the phrase goes,
holes in his pocket, and when he rec
ognizes himself that he is wasteful
and extravagant and an easy mark
for borrowers, it might be wise for
him to turn over his whole pay en-
velope to his wife and let her give
him back what she thinks he needs
for da' Y expenses. But it would take
very meek man and very tactful
woman to carry off this situation
without friction.
Every man should make his wife
as liberal an allowance as he can af-
ford, but she has no more right to eX-
pect all that he makes than he has
to refuse her a fair share of it.
DOROTHY DIX.
Dear Miss Dix am fifty years
old and have a nice big family and an
average husband. But he thinks he
has a right to dictate to me about
the way 1 dress and comb my hair.
He says that a woman of my age
must not use powder or cosmetics of
any kind, nor wave her hair, nor
wear youngish clothes, or do any,
thing TO make herself look attractive.
What do you think? L. F.
Answer: No man has a right to
dictate to his wife about her dress
unless he has qualified as a clothes
expert. So, if your husband is nor
a man milliner or engaged in the
ready-to-wear trade, tell him very
gently and sweet1y to keep off a
subject concerning which he is not
fitted to speak.
