MEDITATIONS
OF A WIFE
By Helen Rowland.

What Modern Women Fear
LIVERY woman has rival in
IA mans heart-but it isn't al
ways another woman. It's the
interesting and fascinating crea-
ture he sees in the looking glass.
The hot jealousy which one
woman feels toward another Is a
mild emotion compared to the
burning envy she feels. when she
discovers that a man can have
a perfectly good time, all ALONE
without ANY woman! That he
can enjoy himself WITHOUT
her!
A man-and this is the CALLING
thought.-can have just as wild.
thrilling and glorious time at
a stag party as at a mixed attalr'
He can get just as excited,
enthusiastic and joyous over his
secret societies, his limitations,
his fraternal reunions and MS
poker parties as over a masked
ball graced by all the hourls.
His banquets, his smokers, his
Rotary luncheons, his baseball and
his golf are all more vitality in
teresting to him when there lsh
a woman around" to spoil them'
THAT is the bitter pill! We
women may enjoy our luncheons,
bridge parties and little club-meet'
ings in a tepid sort OF Way--Tput
the real fun and excitement OF
life doesn't begin until the MEN
come down for the weekend.
Man may no longer be an eco
nonnic necessity in this day OF ef-
ficient women: but he Is as neces-
sary as the breath of life to our
amusement and enjoyment Ana
the most hilarious party without
him, is just Hamlet with the Dane
left out!
A lot of women can get along
on a campaign trip without q
man-but there is no real heart
or fun in it. But man on a
hunting or fishing trip is bliss.
fully happy all by his lonely; and
he considers a woman around
nothing but excess baggage
to say a darned nuisance or
painful pest.
This is the cold appalling fear
that grips every woman in her
secret heart, SOME day, man
may discover that she is not es'
sential to his happiness; that she
is not NECESSITY, but only
little luxury. after all.
Some day, he may wake up 10
the fact that he can not only
smuse himself without her, but
can fry an egg. sew on a button
and fill a hot-water bottle all oy
his little self,
That he can tind the asparin
and the extra cover, and coddle
his own headaches or nurse his
own cold! Yea, even that he can
put the studs in his own shirts,
fix his own bath, find his evening
clothes, and keep the moths out
of his winter overcoat'
Oh, terrible thought for woman!
That man should ever discover
that he can GET ALONG WITH.
OUT her!
Let him try and get away
with it
For man is an ego-centric, and
doesn't need anybody to help him
love himself But woman MUST
have somebody to help her enjoy
things.

TNHE older I grow the less use

AS a philosophy for white mice
it's probably 100 per cent. but If
you aim to hang up a record as

have never forgotten some
thing Fremont Older once said 20
me. We had been speaking of the
rash things he had done in his
turbulent. radical career and the
good that had somehow come out
of it all. Suddenly he said, with
a great grin:
Il HAVE NEVER LOOKED
BEFORE l LEAPEDr'
AS a leaper, Fremont Older has
had few equals and some of his
leaps have yanked the spiritual
standards of America along with
him. But ] am sure he never
made any standing jumps--any
cool, considered advances. Always
am sure he went at things with
a rush-full steam ahead--red hot
with an uproarious disregard tor
consequences.
"But didn't he get into a lot of
trouble?''
OF course he did.
He lost a. lot of money rocket
ing about like that, and many a
job
He was laughed at and hated
and reviled--
He was at one time actually kid.

LISTEN WORLD!
Make WhoOpee!
By Elsie Robinson

But he went right on leaping
before he looked
He WENT RIGHT ON MAX
ING WHOOPEE,
And all America is the richer
for it.
II you want to get the real kick
out of life-MAKE WHOOPEE!
Go at 1t red hot, like a man.
Any snail can ooze along, feel.
ing its way, slipping around OBJ
stacles, avoiding pitfalls, being
safe. And, for a snail, safety is
success.
But man must have more than
safety if life is to pay. He must
somehow feel a touch of the di
vine fire
HE MUST FLAME!
And you'll never flame II you
hang back thinking of the high
cost of blisters
We call fanatics and geniuses
nuts
We grow impatient with their
excited yammering-
But they really have found the
secret of life
They do not live in a fat, eau
tious contentment. They hear. a
vast uproar and see a great light
and shake with mighty tide.
Their bodies may live in poverty
and pain and ignominy, BUT
THEIR SOULS ARE FREE.
They take their chances as
recklessly as Christ took His
cross-as Socrates took his hem
lock--as Jean took her stake.
And because they are quite will
ling to lose their lives, they find
them.
II you want to get anything
worth while out of this business
of life, that's the way to do it.
Laugh--flame! Leap before you
look
