Dorothy Dix Says
Men Live in Terror of Women,
But Most of Them Deny 1t.

risen right up in meeting and asserted
that from the cradle to the grave men
live in mortal terror OF women. He
says that they begin by being afraid
of their mothers; then they are afraid
OF girls in general; then they are
afraid Of their wives, and they end
up by being scared to death of their
daughters.
Doubtless men will deny this and
will swell out their chests and say:
Pooh, who's afraid of a woman? You
just ought to see me tell EN- where
to get off" But all the time there
is = lot of circumstantial evidence to
bolster up the theory that men are
not so bold as they seem in their atti-
tudes toward women.
X X X \
or COURSE, most men get over
their awe OF their mothers by the
time they get out Of swaddling clothes,
because the only woman in the world
that man ever gets completely under
his thumb is his mother There are,
however, exceptions to this rule, and
all OF us know cases in which even
successful, forceful, middle-aged men
have lived in such dread of their
mothers that they did not dare to
marry the woman they loved, and to
whom they had been engaged for years
and years and years.
Than Hind f,,SoL that
it throws man into when he finds
out that some woman has her eye
upon him and is considering annexing
him for a husband. He gets into a
perfect panic in which he takes to
the tall timber. Apparently it never
occurs to him to stand up and make
fight for his liberty, and to dare
her to marry him against his will.
1t is because eligible men are as
timid as startled deer and are stam-
peded by the mere sight of skirt that
forces women to have to work under
cover and camouflage their matri-
monial intentions.
It is unbelievable, but 1t Is q fact,
that there are men at the heads of
great business organizations, who rule
thousands of other men and whose
word Is law in their ofnces, who don't
dare to contradict their wives, or to
invite their mothers to pay them 4
visit. or to ask an old friend to drop
in for q pot-luck dinner.
1t is because men are afraid of their
wives that they lie to them. They
haven't the nerve to tell their wives
the truth about staying downtown to
play poker, or taking an old woman
friend out to lunch. or doing anything
else that they want to do which
breaks the rules that their bosses have
laid down for their guidance. And
the ironic part of 1t is that these men
who are so afraid Of their wives hide
behind . woman's skirt to the last
and have their Miss Secretaries tele-
phone their alibh for them. Funny,
isn't IT. pORoTYY DIX.

As the child grows older the situa-
ton should be explained to him so
that he may use his intelligence to

GA little healthy fear of trafic all
his life won't hurt him a bit.) Any
notion that being cautious in crossing
streets, waiting for the lights, and
SO on, is sissy should be thoroughly
and promptly discouraged. He should
realize that trying to match wits with
speeding cars isn't brilliant or dar-
ing-it's just plain stupid.

A L.SO the precepts must, to be
effective, be followed up with ex-
amples. II mother or father takes
a chance at jay-walking and dart

child will, too. II on the other hand,
the parents show him always an OBJ
servance of the safety rules and in
telligent precautions. he will follow
their lead. No matter how much we
may blame the man behind the wheel.
the fact remains that if pedestrians
co-operated whole-heartedly with the
regulations there would be a decided
drop in the number of traf1ic acci-
dents. The average motorist observes
far more rules than does the average
pedestrian. If he doesn't he gets
what's coming to him. Usually the
pedestrian gets OF scot free, but when
he doesn't it isn't the judge he has
to tell 1t to-it's the doctor
OF course. some accidents seem to
be inevitable. and many admittedly
are the fault OF the driver. But in
the case OF 4 car striking a child
the thought persists that if the child
hadn't been in the street. where he
had no business to be, the accident
wouldn't have occurred. And, when
it is too late, that Is not pretty
thing to have on ones conscience.

1mproveY Your
Telephone
Manners
Most Important
To Leave Good
Impressions.
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY,

THE other day a very dear friend
suggested get = new secretary.
was surprised, as my secretary Is
most endcient and am very satisfied
with her. Just why?" I asked him.
She Is definitely obnoxious over
the telephone. always hesitate
calling you because her manner Is so
surly. One would think was a book
salesman instead Of your friend!"
So made other inquiries. Asked
other friends how they liked my sec
retary. To my surprise most OF them
said she might be efficient but she had
the worst telephone manners in the
world.
Now, secretary represents the per-
son for whom she is working. 1t is
for his welfare that she Is paid a
salary. If he depends upon the good
will OF many people for success in a
career, 1t Is his desire that the girl
answering his phone be courteous,
patient and helpful.
When you speak over the telephone
you should always realize you are
invisible. The person talking with
you judges you only by your voice,
how you speak and what you say.
Constantly We use the telephone to
ask favors of persons whom We prob
ably have never met and are not likely
to meet Every business or profession
| finds it necessary to use the phone for
this purpose. At such times be your
most gracious. appreciative self. Get
over to the other voice that you are
very grateful-just as if he had de-
| livered in person that for which you
asked.
think every telephone operator,
secretary, business woman and active
society woman should learn how to
create an impression over the tele-
phone which would make all persons
who speak with her anxious to meet
her. Miss So-and-so must be lovely
girl. She is so pleasant over the tele-
phone!" Is that the impression you
make?

modern transportation is appalling.
And it is needless. Grown people have
to go about by themselves on their
chances at crossings: they must run
risks driving and walking. There is
no one to guide them, or to keep
them from stepping of the curb into
the path of speeding car. They
must make their own decisions, and
look out for their own lives and limbs.
They realize this. and govern their
actions accordingly.
But with children there Is a differ
ence-and big one. The very small
youngster. who has not even reached
school age. has no business in the
street alone. He cannot be expected
to take care Of himself against the
dangers that confront him. He
doesn't know how. His baby mind is
entirely unequal to the job-and that
fact must not be forgotten.
Therefore. fear is the only way to
protect him at moments when the
constant maternal vigilance is. for
some reason, overlooked. That 1t
should never be overlooked goes, OF
course. without saying, but the fact
remains that mothers are only human,
and circumstances do get out of hand,
occasionally, and the contingency
should be provided for.
nRUM 1t into the child, from the
moment that he can walk, that
"off the curb" is No Mans Land
for him. Teach him to stay on the
inside OF the sidewalk at all times.
and frighten him into obedience. He
learns quickly enough to stay away
from the stove in the kitchen, and
not to play with matches-make the
street just as much of an ogre to
him as are the two other dangers.
And above all. impress him with the
terrible danger Of chasing a lost ball
out into the traffic He must learn
to let the ball 60. once 1t rolls of the
curb. Don't scold him for losing

apparent. Body ills OF months before
sometimes have serious effect on the
nails.
We are also informed that contacts
with germs which find a breeding
place beneath the nail can help to
weaken them. and the importance Of
cleanliness cannot be too strongly en-
phasized. Furthermore. the manicur-
ist exerts definite influence over the
destiny Of your hands She must be
particularly careful in the care of her
instruments, keeping them sterilized
and spotlessly clean. And there is no
excuse for harsh digging into the cuti-
cule-the same as there Is no excuse
for unsanitary conditions.
A S A rule. nail conditions are worse
in winter than in summer. Lack
Of sunshine. fresh, .leafy vegetables,
and outdoor exercise are handicaps to
the general health, but summer pro-
vides these things, along with more
opportunity for relaxation-all Of
which makes for a better body condi-
ton and consequent improvement Of
the nails
Although we seem to be hearing
more complaints about split nails this
year than ever before. we are told that
the condition is really no worse. 1t
seems that We are just more conscious
of it because long nails are the vogue.
and as Nature did not intend them to
grow longer than the fingertips, they
are inclined to break off more easily.
This can be offset to a great extent,
however, by not filling the nails too
deeply at the sides-affording more
support. It is stated, too, that many
reducing diets resorted to recently
have affected them.
Proper care of the nails IS an aid
to their health and appearance.
Thorough cleansing with soap and
water and q nail brush, and the fire.
quent application OF lubricating oils
and creams can be extremely bene-
hcial, and we are reminded that nail
enamels can be safely used with no Ill
effects.
1t is apparent, then, from these re-
ports, that proper diet, good health,
sanitary conditions and correct care
can do wonders to aid you in looking
like a Chinese nobleman around the
finger tips. If your nails are splitting
there must be a real reason, and
there's good chance that you will
find the remedy in one of the above
suggestions. Or so they tell us.
