Dear Miss Arden: 1t would seem to
me that etiquette should be applied
to the attitude a man holds toward
his wife-after the marriage takes
place. It would seem, really, that
then, if ever, etiquette should play a
part in the home life, for I think it
makes unhappiness for a wife to have
to take less from her husband in
thoughtfulness than she did in the en-
gagged period. My husband is good
man, but 1t seems as though he eX-
poets to ignore me in many matters,
and he is rude to me. / excuse him,
thinking / should count my blessings,
but If you could tell me about what ]
should expect as wife in the way of
etiquette from my husband. then /
would not feel that l am unjust or
over-exacting in what / want from
him. / hope I have made you I'M
derstand.
Respectfully, yours. l.. L.C.
This is a rather large order-for
much may be said to advantage on
the subject of etiquette in the home.
But one thing Is sure, the success of
home life depends upon the courtesies
that are observed therein. And courte-
sizes are a product of sel1essness!
May l suggest LnaC thOSe or us
who expect the most receive the
most-and the best-for to expect
much is to receive much. If you
expect a great deal Of him, and let
the expectancy take the form of
dignified understanding of this man,
you may find that gradually, very
gradually, he will reach up and up.
to meet your expectations. Beware
Of nagging. and, above all, beware
of tears, for tears spell defeat and
Disappointment.
AS for the nice details that may
be observed by the husband, he
should, let us say, to begin with. make
definite effort to understand his
wife. that they may exist in harmony
together. He might even try to give
her an insight into his outside in
terests, and talk over with her the
little things Of the day that could be
made Of interest to them both. He
should at all times remember that
to have won good wife is not to
keep her, and that the winning will
go on as long as they both shall live,
and that the little things that were
attractive in him in the beginning
must continue, lest she feel cheated.
He should, for instance, still find it
pleasure to assist her with her chair
when they go to the table. and to

Any magazines of an obscene
nature which are being sold in this
city are being disposed of by men
selling from streets, members OF
the police department declared
yesterday when questioned as to
whether literature of this nature
was being disposed of here, as it is
in nearly every other municipality
in tho country.
Police departments in practically
every section iof the country have a
problem on their hands in control
ling the sale of such magazines
from news stands. Containing pic
lures of undraped women posed in
"the interest of art" according
to the publishers, such magazines
have had rapid sale, and the pub
fishing houses putting them out
have had a mushroom growth, and
are flourishing.
A few weeks ago the Women's
Republican club passed a resolution
urging the Police Department to
take some action toward stopping
the sale of such magazines in this
city.
Following receipt of this resolut-
ion. members of the force made
visits to the various newsdealers
in the city, and issued warnings.
Later they followed this up, but
the newsdealers, apparently, had
