hand to mouth or you will have To m
to work to support him, but YOU win
have all OF his society that you wish.
And sometimes more.
Ii you marry plain business man
whose interest is in the grocery trade
and who never reads anything but
the comic strip and the political page
and market news, and whose feet hurt
MIN at night, you are pretty sure of
tnree square meals a day and not
having to keep an eye on his Ste
nographer. But you may get awfully
fed up with him and have to take your
romance vicariously at the movies.
But If you marry dreamer and poet
or a perfectly divine dancer, you will
find out that though he may feed
your soul on white hyacinths he Is
short on beefsteaks, and that the
night-lifers don't make stable home
companions.
If you marry a doctor or a lawyer
you will die of curiosity about what
alls Mrs. Smith and the particulars of
the Jones divorce. If you marry a
preacher all the sisters in the church
will criticize everything you do and
wear. II you marry an actor you will
get green-eyed over every scene In
which he kisses the heroine. And 80
on and so forth. So when you marry
you literally pay your money and take
| your choice.
YEAR MISS DIX-I am . young
man of 26. Last September 1
| married a girl after a whirlwind
| courtship of one week. She Is a very
nice girl, but I have found out that
do not care for her. Am in love
with girl with whom I have had a
friendship for long time, and she
returns my affection. My wife's
father took her out of college when
she married me and am sending her
to school now in order to fit her to
| support herself, but / have not yet
told her that I do not care for her
and that all is over between us. I
want to marry the other girl Please
tell me what to do. The situation
Is becoming unbearable. J.. H.
Answer-The only fair and honor
able thing to do is to tell your wife
just how you feel and what your in
tentions toward her are You haven't
any right to leave her in the belief
that you still love her and that you
expect to support her and do q hus-
bands duty by her. She should know
just where she stands so that she can
plan her life accordingly.
Perhaps she has found out that she
cares as little for you as you do for
her and regrets the folly Of her pre-
cipitant marriage as much as you do.
Certainly no deep and lasting affection
could be founded on an acquaintance
ship that lasted only a week. Real
love must 60 deeper than that. 1t
must grow out of association, Of habit,
of congeniality, of knowledge Of each
others characters, and not just be an
impulse of the moment and . casual
attraction.
But when you get out OF this mess
don't be in such hurry 10 marry
again. Give more than q week to
picking out life companion.

Serving Food
Children
Is an Art
Dainty Portions on
Their Plates Will
Awaken Appetite.
Bv ANGELO PATRI,


You will find that little children
eat faster and take more If
they are given small portions at
time The children who are just be-
ginning to go to the table with the
grown-ups will like to eat carefully
served dinner of small portions, and
if the color and variety and arrange
ment on the plate are attractive, so
much the better. One tablespoonful
of greens, one of peas and carrots,
one-half Of baked potato served
in a haf-shell and Drowned on top,
with butter; one tiny patch of meat,
will make hungry child's eyes shine
and his fork fly.
If he eats his plate clean and asks
for more it is easy enough to let
him have it. But be dainty about
that first serving. It is the one that
tickles his palate and wakens his ap-
petite. If it is too much, if it is
heap of messy-looking food, without
form and color and tempting smells, he
is likely to be slow about eating it.
He will delay in the hope that dessert
will offer better possibilities
Some of the runabout children can
not eat as much at one time as will
last them to the next meal because
their stomachs are SO small These
children protest about eating a big
meal, big in their eyes, and turn away
from it. When forced to eat they de-
lay as much as they can and cry
when their mothers spoon-feed them.
Try giving such children less at a
time and feeding them oftener. And
before you start any such program
Of feeding consult the physician who
knows the child. Sometimes a word
from the doctor saves year of trouble.
Little children want to eat a lot
of the food they like best. One will
eat so much potato that he can eat
nothing else, while another refuses
potato and wants cereal, and cereal
only. Just as soon as a child begins
to eat a varied diet, vary it. Give
him little of each item before serv-
ing him the second time. If this
is done right in the beginning he will
form the habit Of eating q little of
each thing on his plate and so form
one Of the best Of all eating habits.
A one-dish child is going to be very
difficult to feed and very much more
difficult to nourish. A variety of food
is needed.
When child indicates a marked
dislike for certain foods avoid serving
them often if it is at all possible.
Substitute something else If he must
eat it then give him just a little, and
serve the dish to the rest of the family
and get them to say it is very good
and that they like it. Do this very
casually; too much emphasis rouses
opposition.
Don't measure q child's appetite by
your own. Nor his tastes. Be con-
tent If he eats a varied diet and is
up to standard weight, or close to it.
Standard weight is only a figure of
speech, q general term that covers
some variation even in very healthy
children. A child who plays and
sleeps and eats variety Of food can
be few pounds below the set weight
and be quite all right. In eating
1t Is better to stay on the "just =
little" side than on the too much.

Stratford Hall Is the Birthplace Of Famous American Fam
Dorothy Dix Says
Marriage Is as Much a Gamble
For a Woman as 1t Is for Men.

~ EAR MISS DIX-We were
very much interested in your
recent article telling the ad-
vantages and disadvantages
of the different types of girls as wives.
Now will you please tell lis something
concerning the different types Of men
as husbands? A GROUP OF GIRLS.
Answer-Well, of course, there is no
such thing as the perfect husband any
more than there is any such animal
as the perfect wife. So whichever
kind of man you marry there will be
times and seasons when you will wish
you had picked out somebody else for
q husband, with an entirely different
set of characteristics. Each type of
man has his faults and his virtues,
his advantages and his drawbacks.
II, for example, you marry homely
man whose face is just an assortment
Of odds and ends Of features, and
whose Adams apple sticks in his
throat and chokes him when he tries
to say darling" you won't have any
thing to look at or get bite Of ro-
nance, but you will never have to
worry about keeping him from other
women, and he will put you on a
pedestal instead of expecting you to
kowtoW before him.
But II you marry man who is as
handsome as Robert Taylor and who
makes love like Clark Gable on the
screen. you will be puffed up with
pride over having captured the prize
Of your circle and put something over
on the other girls, but you will be
filled with jealousy and spend the
balance Of your life protecting your
treasure And you will have to listen
to people wonder why such godling
married a trump like you. and you
will find out that great lovers are
mighty likely to practice their talent
on ladies other than their wives.
If you marry a poor boy you will
have to work and scrimp, save and
wear shabby clothes. But if you love
him it is fun, and if he has the right
stuff in him by the time you are
middle-aged you will be living on
easy street and riding around in a
limousine.
IF YOU marry rich man just for
his money you will have fine clothes
and beautiful houses, and you can
travel and do all the things you long
to do, but they will be dust and ashes
because you will be bored to death.
If you marry rich playboy you will
have a high old time for a few years,
and then the money will be gone and
at middle age you will be down and
out, with champagne tastes and not
even a beer income on which to stake
it.
If you marry a go-getter you will
have only the fraction of husband.
All the balance of him will belong
to his career. He won't have much
time for you or his home and you will
never be the real heart interest to
him that the stock market or his pro-
fession is, but you will have the pride
and glory that a woman feels who is
married to a successful man.
II you marry an easy-going, good
natured, ambitionless man, the chances
are that you will always live from
