BuIIdOSing'
BY MARTHA LIE.

There are two sure WAYS 2 bov
can tell Just about what kind Of
wife his fsncee will make. One is
the vay she treats him before they
are married. The other is watching
the mother OF the girl, and the way
she treats her husband.
If a girl sgranni1es over her
sweetheart b-fore he is her hus-
band. it is infallible sign that she
will do likewise. only more so. after
they are married.
There aren't two WAYS about it. A
girl is bound 10 have infinitely more
respect for a man Uho stands firmly
upon his own rights as an mdivid-
val She inWardlv will sheer at
10Y who allows himself 70 be bull
9ozed into taking all sorts Of sulk-
eng and pOuting and "bossing' from
the girl Who is to be his wife.
Man Should Dominate
IT is i'm the books that men should
Be the more dominating Of the two
sexes. Talk all YOU want about this
new freedom and the emancipation
Of women snd the freedom Of
thought and action. that does not
alter the fact that the man should
have the courage and strength of
character to dominate his own
household. And il he hasn't the
subtletv and courage to manage
things before he is married. it is a
cinch he'll never make the grade
otter he's signed up.
A great deal Of the unhappiness
between husbands and wives IS
caused either by the wife tyranizing
Or the husband being too iron
handed in showing his authority.
One is as bad as the other, and
both are fatal 70 happiness.
Boy Wants Advice
A bow who is trying his best TO
wriggle from under 2. situation that
he sees will turn out badly writes
me this letter:
the girl am going with. She tvo-tired
ne snd had dates with another fellow.
We quit. However. everything was for
given and ne went back together again
Nov 7 am not satisfied with her
We quarrel All the time. because she IS
- Jealous of me. She doesn't like NJ
work and slVays is suspectins me OF oelns
out with other girls. The whole thing IS
getting on nv nerves until I cant Stano
~ any longer
7 realize nov that she rs not the s'ri
for me-. But can't quit her. because
she saws she 7iu Kill herself If no.
she told me she positively knew vas me
orlv FELLOW she ever would love. but
contend that she never has been Win
enough fellows really to know her own
mind
re tried acting Indifferent and she
~eeps around until I cant STAND ~. SO
lie and tell her I love her. She says Il
Leave here there is nothing left IN ne
for her. She comes 70 my office Vneh !
an, busv and then becomes offended II
tel1 her am 7 want TO get out rom
under the whole situation Tithont hu't-
ing her too much. and Of course 0lthou'
having suicide as result
NV dear fellow. You are being 700
utterly ssppv for words. I can not
imagine anv fellow with any spunK
allowing a birl to hrowbeat HIM SO
thoroughly .d
II the girl is too much of a coward
~ live without YOU. as she claims.
she is certainly too much OF COW
ard m take her own life. That's a
lot of Juvenile blurb that doesn
mean a thinc. Why don't YOU tell
the girl that the way she is acting
now is unbearable to YOU?
Loses Her Balance
The poor girl has gotten away
,-ith 90 much now that she has lost
her sense of balance. Jolt her PACK
N her normal state of mind II YOU
tell her out and ont she Is SO dl1-
fsrent from when YOU first knew
her that no one could expect you
stiU 70 care for her. she might start
changing her tactics.
The whole trouble is. YOU never
have gotten her told II she sees
that she is sure to lose you IN spite
of all her inane threats. unless she
stops being such fool she VIII
change quickly enough. -
Won would be doing her yourseI
ard those who come in contact with
her favor by stopping such hys-
tn-io hefore II becomes 2 habit.
