Happy Couples Plan to Separate for Year
Held Declaration of Independence
BY HoRTENsE SAUNDERS

New York, March lS.-Ine d"-
pendent woman is the only type who
is suited to conventional matrimony !:
and marriage, as the average persons
interpret it, is almost impossible for
the independent, self-supporting,
thinking individual.
THAT'S why my husband and I
are. experimenting to find the plan
which just suits our needs
Thus Thyra Samter Winslow COM
ments on the fact that she and her
husband, after II years of happy mar
ried life, are to take years absence
from each other.
In story of this plan would sound
preposterous but, as Mrs. Winslow
explains the situation, it sounds quite
plausible.
Want to Be Is.
"Neither of us wants to be half
Of 'we'," she declares. I'VE want 10
be T." That was our agreement
when we married. We were writers
and We're to go on with our careers.
We've never had a vacation, either
of us, in II years. We are convinced
married couples should have at least
months vacation from each other
each year. So We are taking it all
at once"
l couldn't help asking Mrs. Wins
low If she wasn't just bit afraid
some vamp might take a fancy to
her husbaid while he was cacation-
ing. And she replied:
"A married man is always in dan
ger from vamps. But think of the
time he has away from home under
the ordinary circumstances. He
sees pretty girls at his office, at
luncheon and on the street car. If
he wants to wander away from his
marriage vows he can do so very
conveniently and still spend most OF
his evenings at home.
"a husband and wife should, / be-
lieve, be absolutely loyal to each
other in big issues, and free in the
smaller ones.
Dislike Quizzing.
"No man wants to be asked every
day with whom he has lunched and
to account for every minute of his
time. And woman doesn't either.
My husband is the finest man l
know. That's why we are able to
make this experiment.

Household Suggestions
Hold the Color.

ored borders in salt water before you
wash them and the colors will be-
come set.
To Clean Silver.
Table silver that is badly furnished
may be cleaned hv putting in a pan
of water covered with a strong solu-
ton Of borax, washing soda or pot
ash and bringing il to boiling point.
Let it boil for about 20 minutes and
stay in the solution until cold. Then
rinse and wipe with a soft cloth or
chamois.
Avoid Wrinkles.
After removing clothes from the
line fold them carefully before You
put them away. II crushed into the
clothes basket there are more
wrinkles to remove.
Helps Clothes.
A clothes horse on which to hang
clothes, after ironing them is essen
tial so that the garments may be
well aired and absolutely dry before
storing away in closets or dresser
drawers.
Play Safe.
Have your rings examined occa-
sionally to see that the settings will
hold.
Distribute Bluing.
II water is very hard it is difficult
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1924-03-19

to distribute the bluing for laundry.
Put a cupful of sweet skinned milk
in the water before putting in the
bluing.
For Health's Sake.
1t is as essential to clean the gar.
bagc pail by washing and drying it
Us it is to keep the receptacles for
food clean.
Remove Rings.
You should always remove your
rings before washing your hands as
soap is very apt TO get in the small
crevices and to hold the dust that
creeps in later.
Soda As Cleaner.
Keep your kitchen sink free from
grease by putting a lump Of soda
in it every day or two and then flush
ing with hot water.

LETTER FROM RUTH ELLING-
TON TO LESLIE PRESCOTT
DEAR LESLIE:

DEAR LESLIE:
You. left the other day in such n
hurry l did not have time to tell you
Jack has returned to me the S6Oou
and / have sent it to Struble d
Struble to be placed to Carl Whitney
account. l hope this will close that
diamond deal. j know it has worried
you greatly. You had better give
them to Alice for n wedding present.
Don't open your eyes and tell me
Alice isn't going to be married. for
i am quite sure you will find by the
time Carl Whitney returns they will
be engaged. Alice has wanted Carl
ever since she was a tiny girl, and
although she made such fuss about
your marrying Jack, it was only be-
cause she thought you were breaking
Carls heart. Now, she is mighty glad
of it.
l haven't seen Jack since you left.
He sent me the money by special
messenger. Some one told me. how
ever. they saw him out dining the other
evening at the Rainbow Inn with
Sally Anterior.
met Mrs. Anterior the other day
at Paula Periers matinee and was
greatly taken with her. She is a
very old friend of yours and Jack
isn't she? / hope | shall meet her
some day at your house. She seems
SO thoroughly competent and so
thoroughly sure OF herself.
/ have been wondering all along
how you are getting along on your
duty visit: You are better woman
than l am. for l wouldn't have gone
to see Mrs. Prescott ST.. on bet
after the letter she wrote John and
the stories she believed when told by
that Bradford woman.
The lingerie business is coming.
Have had three bridal trousseaux TO
get out this week. and what do YOU
think that crazy Eleanor Allison did ?
She ordered all her undertakings to
be made of black chiffon and
trimmed with black thread lace. ex-
cept Of course the one to be worn
with her wedding gown.
That child has tried all her life to
be vamp and I hope that crest
strapping brute of husband of hers
will take it out Of her.
had letter from Walter
Burke. He tells me Jack wrote to
him for Harry's address. l expect
tnat was ut tne time ne was SO angry
Mt me over the money in the safe.
Walter wrote me. very sweet letter
saying he would expect me to have
my divorce when he returned in the
spring. I'm ofraid I'll disappoint
him, because notwithstanding the fact
Harry has deserted, or rather because
of the, fact that he deserted me and
ran away with another woman, ]
don't think I can get up courage to
marry another man.
Don't stay too long down in that
puritanical establishment. for if you
do vou might get brain fever. Come
back soon and we'll get some one to
take us to tea at the Rainbow Inn.
I rather think Jack will do it--don't
you? You see he's not as angry at
me as he was. i love you ALWAYS.

THE TREND OF FASHION

A S Easter approaches and the
A the horizon, The thoughts Of
the schoolgirl and her mother turn
quite naturally to party frocks. The
designers spend considerable time
and thought upon these little dresses
that are apparently so simple, for
the gown for the schoolgirl that is
adapted from that Of her debutante
sister is rarely successful. Miss
Fourteen to Eighteen needs quite a
different style and treatment.
The revival of the short-waisted
frocks of the Empire is style that
is particularly successful in the
party frocks for very young girls.
When these gowns are developed in
pompadour silks or floating tulles,
they are delightfully."- naive and
young.
OF quite a different type but
equally becoming to the awkward
age, is the frock illustrated. The
waist is remarkably simple and is a
trifle long wasted. The frock is
made if turquoise blue satin, bound
at neck and sleeves with tiny bands
of the same. Long narrow scarf
like ends of the satin are attached
to the shoulder seams and caught
again at the waist.
The fluffy skirt is composed of
ruffles of blue silk net that are
doubled before they are gathered,
so that the effect is more puffy and
less crisp than the usual ruffles.
