treme ideals Of the conduct Of
a wife. The person who has
some minor defects in his char
acter has a much more broad
minded view of life because he can
understand how mistakes will &C.
cur.
I know young wife who is per-
1laps happier than most women.
She herself admits her husband can
tell three of the best stories about
any happening of any one i'll town
and not one of the three versions
even approach the truth. She knew
that he is just one of those charm
ing persons who can not stick to
the everyday and most times COM
l1lonplace facts about anything. OF
course, when she married him she
well understood his failing, so she
was prepared.
That young woman knows, that
her husband will not object to any
little fault of hers. He is jolly and
has a good disposition because he
knows he is far from perfect. This
is my answer to the cautious girls
who write me about their 11ances.
A little dash of the cavalier helps
any puritan disposition.
Dear Martha Lee: ] really am eXasper
time no matter what we are going to do.
He always arrives, but also always late,
his hardness varying from five minutes to
He has a nice disposition aud never crit
iclzes me. l love him, but am afraid that
this trait of his will make me become a
nagging wife s r.
Dear S. r.: Since you love this
young man and really want to
marry him, you had better start a
training course for yourself in be-
coming accustomed to his being
late. When he says he will call at
eight, plan to>be ready at nine. AL
ways make allowances for his tardi-
ness, and you will avoid the feeling
of utter evaporation that comes
with waiting for someone.
DO not be foolish. my dear S. r.,
and jilt this young man who has the
most necessary quality of a good
disposition just because he never
knows the time. The good DISPOSE
ton is more necessary for q sue
cessful husband than the prompt
ness you want.
Dear Miss Lee: have been going with
girl friend Tor some time We have
agreed always and enjoyed one another
company although she would always turn
down She
not seem to have both a boz and girl
friend. However. though We have broken
off sometimes, VIC have always resumed
our friendship.
However this last time il has seemed to
hurt me more and more because this young
man with whom she Is going now has told
her she can not see me or go with me. DO
you think she ought to do as he SAYS, even
though they are not married? He has no
reason to object to our friendship.
MY other friends and the folks at home
tell me I should ignore her whenever I see
her. She used to have luncheon with me
but now she lodges the places where we
used 70 cat together What do you think
her but I am sure 1 shall never get over
this hurt she has caused me:
A CONSTANT READER
Dear Constant Reader: About
two weeks ago [ discussed the prob
lem of a girls having both young
men and women friends. AS I said
before, it is possible for a girl to
have both if she uses a little tact.
Most friendships break up because
the girl is too eager to talk about
the fine qualities Of one to the other.
1t is obvious since you have done
nothing to offend this young man
that he is jealous of your friend
ship with this girl. That is the
probable explanation of his object
ing to you.
Remember, Constant Reader, that
a girl really is engaged in impor
tant business when she is looking
for a husband. She is forced to
forego some of the pleasant times
she has with her girl friends so She
can be dating" and going to dances
and shows. If you really like this
