By MIMI.
To Keep From Each Other.
RY MIMI.

All young couples, whether engaged
or married. or Just in love, are fun
of beautiful ideas about understand
| ing each other perfectly.
They want to talk everything over,
| they want to know all each others
secrets-they want to be told every
! last thing on each others mind.
It's a charming picture they draw
ole Of mutual understanding. per-
| feet trust, absolute honesty.
Still. ut the risk OF offending all
the pillars OF society who urge that
| there be no secrets between the
| young lovers, I'd like TO argue few
minutes.
| In every one of us there is a criti-
| cal faculty that perceives faults and
| flaws in every one else.
| No matter how much in love We
may be. we discern in the other per-
I son annoying flaws, tiresome little
| habits, troublesome tricks which we
! would correct if we could.
| AS time goes on. and love doesn't
seem quite so desperately important,
| the flaws and faults may loom larger.
! And the first quarrel-during which
we tell each other just what we think
| OF each other-brings to light many
| OF our petty grievances.
| We make up. yes. but we don't
erase the memory of everything
that's been said.
We've still got the ache and sting
Of those nasty biting words some
| where inside of us.
Sometimes we gals don't even need
| the excuse of a quarrel to start pick
! ing the boy friend to pieces.
| Peggy, for instance, With all the
| best intentions in the world. started
| something one night, just because
! she thought it was her duty.
| Her Jack had a curious streak Of
| meanness in him which showed very,
! very seldom.
! Ordinarily he was the best-natured,
! most generous person in the world,
but on certain occasions he showed
an inability to open his wallet which
! was startling.
! Now this habit OF his wasn't strong
! enough 10 cause much trouble. It
! showed, as I've said. once in a blue
| moon, and probably only Peggy
! noticed it.
At other times he was Il regular
guy. Still Peggy was worried.
She had something on her mind,
and in accordance with her plans of
| happy married life, she took him to
task for this little failing. With the
result that she hurt his feelings so
badly he never quite got over being
nervous and Self-conscious about
money matters.
Always he remembered the sting
of her little speech, and always it
hurt him.
So l adjure you candid young
things.
Keep secrets from your husband.
Don't tell him all the things on your
mind.
Don't tell him the little hurting
things which DO nobody any good.
Keep from him as much unpleasant
information as you possibly can.
No need to burden his mind with
all YOUR littlo troubles. Bury them
away somewhere so they can't bother
either of you.
Tell him the big, important things,
but hold out on the petty trifles.

Indeed, SO popular has the term
Q. X. become in modern speech that
it has reached out even beyond the
parlance Of commerce, where it had
it's origin, and we find it is used with
a broader connotation. Your health,
for instance, may quite properly be
referred to as o. X.
The expression comes to us from
a now obsolete word "okell,' which
meant satisfactory. In the days
when modern strenuosity was un.
known and even business was done
in a leisurely fashion, Il merchant
thought nothing Of writing 'okeh''
across the face of bill that had
been paid or on an application for
credit. But with the advent of mod
ern rush, which brought the need for
something short and pithy, 'okeh''
became 20. K" and, though the orig
inal word is now obsolete, the con-
traction has survived to popularity in
