Dear Dorothy Dix-For three
years I have loved girl of my own
age, eighteen. We are both work
ing. hear so much now of partner
ship marriages, with everything
tifty-ffty. Would there be anything
wrong in our marrying on a fifty
fifty basis, with the understanding
that there would be no children for
several years, until both of us had
had enough fun? AS for our home
life, I think that she should be the
boss of the house, while I, of course,
would be the boss Of the family. In
other words, I like to be bossed by
her, but would like to have some
sayso about her adventures.

My wife has always been of a
very nervous temperament, and last
| fall she had a breakdown. Since
| then she has been insanely jealous
! of me; cries all the time, and never
wants me to leave her even to at
tend to my business. My mother
and sisters think that she is crazy
and that I should put her in an
asylum, but l do not believe she

doctors say that her nerves are shat.
tered and advise me to take her
away, hut 1 don't know what to do.
What would you do if you were in
| my position?
Answer:
Love and tenderness. and change,
are the only remedies for cases like
your Wife's, and she is a fortunate
woman in being able to have these.
Take her away from home to some
place where she will have new
sights and sounds; different food,
something fresh and interesting hap
pening that will take her mind off
of herself. Why not try Southern
California, which is a paradise at
this time of the year
Personally, 1 believe that travel. is
panacea for almost any i'll that
afflicts us, and that if we spent
more money on railroad and steam
ship tickets and less on doctors and
druggists bills we would live twice
as long and get ten times as much
pleasure out of life.
I know from personal experience
that when 1 get that tired feeling,
and there. is no pep left in me; when
food tastes like sawdust, and beds
become places of torment of sleep
lessness; when the mildest remark
that anybody makes TO me sounds
like a premeditated insult, and l
feel like scratching the face of the
whole universe with my claws,
there's no remedy for it equal to
taking little trip. 1t doesn't make
any difference if the place 1 go to
is far less comfortable than my
own home. There is a tonic in the
change that brings back my zest
in life and puts me at peace with the
world again.
And I also know from personal ex.
perience that there Is no solace like
travel for a great sorrow that eats
at your heart like a worm on a
rose. At home, where everything
tortures you with remembrance, your
mind goes round and round in a
treadmill, and cannot get off the
beaten track of anguish. But in for
eign lands there is nothing to remind
you of the past. Strange scenes
enchant your eyes. New things fill
your mind. Fresh adventures rouse
your interest in life that you thought
dead. And so time has scope for
Its beneficient work and the pain
dulls and the wound heals.
So, Good Husband, buy your wife
some pretty clothes, even over her
protests. They will interest her.
Then take her as far away as you
can. Take her into the sunshine,
into strange places, and give her.
most of all, your tenderness and
sympathy. And in year or two
she will be herself again.

My Dear Folks: 1t is certainly
getting time for us to begin prepa-
ration for the spring putting away
of winter garments, and you know
L believe we all do that with a
thrill.
In the first place it is a mighty
good idea to go through all packing
trunks and see that our little enemy,
the moth, has not lodged himself in
some tiny crack, just waiting to
make his summer meals out of our
very best winter dress or coat.
Where it is possible a good wash
ing out of chests and closets with
kitchen soap, or naptha, then a
sprinkling of cedar shavings, and
you can feel fairly comfortable. Of
course you simply cannot put up
garments that have dirty spots and
not run the risk of moth holes,
Where you do not have alright
cedar chests or closets, then it is
helpful to take your winter things
out at least once during the sum-
mer, brush and air well. Cordially
yours, AUNT JULIA.

preciate them instead of waiting until they
are sleeping beneath the cold sod. Here
il poem from my scrapoook-i snoulo
Die Tonight'-which think will give us
much food for thought along this line:
"If I should die tonight
MY friends would look upon my quiet face
Before they laid me in my resting place
And deem that death had left 1t almost
fair;
And laying snow-white flowers against my
hair
Would smooth it down with fearful ten
And fold my hands with lingering caress-
Poor hands so empty and so cold tonight.
If should die tonight
Ny friends would call to mind with low
ing thought
Some kindly deed the icy hand had wrought,
Some gentle word the frozen lips had said =;
brands on which the willing feet had sped
The memory Of my selfishness and pride,
NV hastv words would all be put aside;
And so I would be mourned and loved TO-
night.
II I should die tonight
Even hearts estranged would turn once more
to me,
Recalling other days remorsefuly;
The eyes that chill me with averted glance
Would look upon me as Of yore, perchance'
And soften in the old familiar way
For who would war with dumb, unconscious
So might rest, forgiven Of all. tonight.
Oh friends I pray tonight
Keep not your kisses for my dead, cold
The way Is lonely, let me feel them now
Think gently Of me, I am travel-worn;
My faltering feet are pierced with many
thorn.
Forgive. oh hearts estranEed, forgive I
When dreamlessness Is mine I shall mot
heed -
The tenderness FOR which long tonight"
Cousins trust that each Of you will en-
Joy this poem as much as I have, and will
realize the great lesson which 1t teaches.
With the very best Of good wishes. I am.

DOROTHY DIX DISCUSSES LIFE
TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

woman have right to enter into it
until they have had their fling, until
they have had enough of philander-
ing, until they are ready to begin
soberly, and God fearingly their life
work.
When you are eighteen you are
too young for this. You are still mad
for pleasure. Your feet ache to
dance. You want to run with the
gang and have all the fun that is
going. And that is why boy and
girl marriages are almost invariably
a failure. The young have taken
burdens upon themselves that are
too heavy for their strength. They
want to have the fun that other boys
and girls are having, and they eSe
tied down with the responsibility Of
matrimony. Inevitably they are dis
contented and unhappy, and they
fight until their romance is shattered
and their home broken up.
So don't marry on a fifty-ffty ba-
