Dorothy Dix Says
Don't Expect Marriage to Change
Character.

! the delusion that as soon as they are
married their chickering's will cease
and the dove of peace will brood over
their home. Nothing of the kind will
happen. They will fight all the more
because their interests will conflict
more and there will be more things
| to disagree about, and 1t doesn't take
any prophet to foretell that their
marriage will almost surely end in
the divorce court.
IT SEEMS incredible that an in
= telligent. highly educated man
could be foolish enough to select as
wife a brainless little flapper just
because she had peaches-and-cream
complexion and golden hair, and ex-
pect her to turn into clever, culti-
waited woman fit to be companion
to him by the mere act of getting
married. Yet we see it done every
day, and it is the cause of more
domestic tragedies than any other one
thing.
For the neglected wives" the
wives whose husbands have outgrown
them," the wives who do not un-
derstand their husbands" the wives
who are not companions to their
husbands" of whom we hear SO much
and who are the alibis for unfaithful
husbands, are just the women on
whom the marriage miracle failed to
take as their husbands expected it to
do. The poor things are just as they
were when their husbands picked
them out for wives.
And women are equally unreaSon-
able in their belief in the magic
powers of marriage to change an in
dividual. A girl will marry q man
who has never even supported him
self, without a doubt crossing her
mind that he will be able to make a
comfortable living for her and
family of children. She will marry
man who has been too stingy even
to bring her q box Of candy or a
bunch of flowers during courtship

CHE will marry a man who has been
utterly selfish to her, who has
never considered her pleasures nor
desires, and be sure that as soon
as they are married he will turn into
q tender and gallant husband. She
will even marry a man who is cold,
Unconditional and expect marriage to
convert him into great lover.
OF course, no such miraculous
transformations ever take place in in
dividuals. It is easier for the leopard
to change its spots than it is for us
to change our natures. After mar
riage we still run true to form and
are clever or dull, high-tempered or
amiable, kind or cruel, some account
or no-account, even as we were before.
And If young people contemplating
matrimony would accept this as
fact, it would save q lot of unhappy
marriages. DOROTHY DIX.

NOW for the woman who feels that
most clothes are inaoe for extreme
youth, and in desperation gives up
the hunt for something cool and smart
looking, there is a solution to her
problem in the group Of frocks which
employ a new small-checked white
material with hairline check of
black. One Of these in two-piece effect
has a white collar and trim fitting
cape effect over the arms instead of
sleeves. that provides one of the cool
est models for street dress. 1t has
a wrap-around skirt and the black
and-white buttons are distinctive
feature. Another one Of these that is
f1attering to the more ample figure
has softly crossed-over collar, giving
the slenderiZing line, and below that,
or rather around it, a bosom front
outlined in fagotting. There is ample
pleating in the skirt. There are a
number of styles in this sort of frock,
all made of the same material and
priced at less than Sl4. They would
look well with either white or black
accessories and seem to fill a very
definite need among general types of
women's clothes.

-HE most touching example OF
optimism in the world is the
belief entertained by so many
L men and women that those
they marry will be different after
marriage from what they were before
marriage. Thousands upon thou
sands of people cherish a deathless
faith in the potency of the marriage
ceremony to cure what ails you. No
benighted heather ever believed more
sincerely in the magic Of the hocus-
pocus of a medicine man than they
do that the mumbling Of a few words
over a couple by a clergyman Will
change their whole characters, dis
positions, tastes and habits.
This explains, as nothing else does,
why there are so many unsuitable
marriages, why there are so many
disgruntled husbands and wives and
why there is so much divorce. A man
is attracted by a pretty girl. She
fires his fancy but she does not come
up to his ideal She has plenty OF
faults of which he disapproves, ways
that get on his nerves. She is clothes
mad, party-mad, extravagant, useless,
in no way the type of woman he wants
as wife, but he goes blithely on and
marries her in the secure confidence
that as soon as the marriage ceremony
is over she will be converted into a

MO GIRL outside of an institute
4 for feeble-minded females would
let herself in for a lifetime of misery
as a drunkard's wife or of grinding
poverty with a ne'er-do-well or |of
heart-rending jealousy with a phi
landerer. Yet millions of girls have
married sots under the belief that
marriage was a never-failing remedy
for the drink habit. Millions Of
women are supporting husbands with
whom they never would have bur-
dened themselves except that they
were under the delusion that marriage
was all that was needed to turn q
lazy loafer into go-getter. And
millions upon millions of wives have
found out how baseless was their be-
lief that there was some magic in q
wedding ring that would keep a hus-
band with q wandering foot from
chasing OF after other women.
For, alas, it is only too sadly true
that marriage works no miracles in
men and women. It Is only a mordant
that sets the colors more indelibly.
What they were before marriage, they
are after marriage. Only little more
so. Hence the wise thing is to pick
out the kind of wife and husband you
want in the first place so that you
will know what you are getting, in
stead of trusting to luck that they
will change into something entirely
different when you get them home.
Or else to take them 'as Is" and make
up your mind to be satisfied with your

It is very important that the
window box receives an abund-
ance of water. Naturally boxes
of this kind dry out very quickly,
In as much as a large area is
exposed to the air and to SUM-
light. In many places it is
necessary to give water at least
twice a day, but of course there
Is such q thing as OVERRIDING this
matter. Many persons err in
using window boxes which are
too shallow and so dry out
quickly. Ten inches is neither
too wide nor too high, but the
length, of course, must be gov
erned by the position the box is
to occupy. 1t is best to have the
box stained or painted a subdued
color, but in any event a wood
like cypress or oak, which will
resist weather conditions, should
be used. Metal boxes work fair
ly well, but absorb too much heat
when in very hot locations.

the same is true in lesser measure OF
other rare books. What few realize is
the value of certain of their sister
publications-ma gazines.
Magazines vary in value between 81
or SO and some 5000 This latter figure
has been attained by few of the
older issues of the National Geographic,
unquestioned leader in magazine values
because of it's desirability in complete
sets. One of these files from 1888 to
date will bring from $1,000 to $4,000
depending on the avidity of the col
lector.
A study of records reveals some
startling facts. A Godey's Lady's Book
Of 1845 brought $l7.5O; a dime novel,
"Texas Jack" of the Beadles Boys
Library, $751; an American Review OF
January, 1845, brought $45.
Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, Du-
Maurier are names to make col
lector's eyes brighten when he sees
them on the pages of a magazine, fol
here enters another type of first. The
early works of later well known writer's
the first appearance in print of such
noted works as "The Raven" or "Tril-
by" enhance values wherever they are
found.
"The Raven" in the American Re
view January, 1845, makes that issue
bring around $45; "Trilby" in serial
form through January to June, 1894
in Harper's, gives a value of So to $40
to each of those issues. Harper's of
December, 1866, containing Mark
Twain's "Forty-th Days in an Open
Boat" is worth $780,
The value of the National Geograph-
ic is easy to understand. Writers such
as William Howard Taft, Theodore
Roosevelt and Joseph Conrad; colorful
Illustrations and informative articles;
the wide scope of travel subjects COW
cred, all contribute to making it valu-
able to collectors. The need for GER
tain copies to complete sets most COM
monty occurs in the older issues. Any
National Geographic prior to 1900 has
a potential value of $25 or more
Among the more recent issues, an &C.
casional one deals at length with pop
ular subjects, such as dogs, cattle
horses, or flags of all nations, profusely
Illustrated in color, and these stand
', apart from contemporary issues. Deal
ers quote them at prices ranging from

81 to 81.
Similar in the use of color, but en-
tirely different in subject, are the old
Godey's Lady's Book, best known of
the early women's magazines. Many
drawings, often with rich color plate,
depict the styles of the era of hoop
skirts and bustles. Single pages of il
Illustrations, removed from the maya
zine, have sold for Is cents to 81 each.
Complete years in the period around
1850 usually bring $25, but sometimes
are auctioned at prices below that COM
manded by single issue. Recent sales
disclose one copy, dated l845, valued
at $17.5O. The factors that determine
the values include the worth of the
magazines as Americana, heir historical
interest, their aid to illustrators in per-
iod work, and even the charming ap-
pearance of the color plates when
made up into lamp shades.

RARE MAGAZINES

Magazine collecting is an interesting
pastime, and may easily be made a
profitable one. The search, like that
for other hidden treasure, will lead
into odd places, the attic and base
ment, the secondhand bookstore and
even the used furniture store, and the
search will be frequently rewarded, for,
unlike rare books they are not so hard
to find, says John R. Marcy in a re-

In regard to other questions as well
as the New Deal, these editors say:
Warren (Ohio) Search Light-"We

But statistics themselves tell only a
small part of the whole story. More
enlightening are the personal COM
ments made by the publishers in re-
gard to the more human side Of the
question. Some of the views expressed
by those either entirely for or against
the New Deal are:

Care of Floors

Waxed floors, whether the wax is ap-
piled directly to the wood or over var
nish or shellac should be busted with
dry brush or cloth and polished once
a week.
Do not use an oil mop, for the oil
will soften the wax
Worn places may be rewaxed sepa-
rately, but the entire floor should have
all wax removed and new coat ap-
piled every three or four months.

Housing Hints
Semitic Tanks

Although the method of disposing of
sewage by means of a properly de-
signed septic tank is approved by
health authorities, the discharge should
not be considered harmless. Under
certain conditions it will contaminate
a we'll or other source of water sup
ply. Care should be taken to place
the discharge of the tank where there
is no danger of such contamination.
