| menting him unless it is to fade out
But with most wives it is just plain
dumbness that keeps them from
seeing that they have committed
the objectionable sin against their
husbands when they trample over
their pride and make them lose face,
as the Chinese say.
The thing that is as necessary
to a man as the breath he draws
is his belief in his own Importance,
yet we see wives stupidity taking
this away from their husbands
turning them into stooges. without
thought of the harm they are
doing, or how the men must re-
sent it in their hearts.
Perhaps, however, the most dis
astrous result of women killing their
husbands pride in themselves is
that it slows down and takes away
from them their self confidence,
without which no one can succeed
All of us need to be bucked up
at times We need to be praised.
We need to believe that somebody
has faith in us and knows we are
going to make good.
If wives understood these things

there would be fewer ladies buying

Whenever You Kill Mans Pride
You Harm His Self Confidence

1t Is strange that so few wives
realize what a dangerous thing they
do when they fail to recognize and
respect their husbands pride. This
Is the more incomprehensible be-
cause every mothers daughter Of
them is born knowing that wom-
ans first line of attraction for a man
is admiration, making him think
that at last he has found some one
with intelligence enough to really
appreciate him, and see how big and
strong and wonderful he is. Inas-
much as every woman knows she
gets her husband by giving him the
glad hand, you would think she
would take as tip that the way to
hold him is by keeping up the ap-
plause and walking high, wide and
handsome around his little weak
nesses. But, as general thing, she
doesn't She feels that marriage
gives her a sacred right to keep
him reminded of his shortcomings.
And then she wonders why he ceases
to love her and goes off after the
other woman who pours the healing
oil of praise over the wounds she
has made in his vanity. No doubt
there are some wives with sadistic
natures who humiliate their hus-
bands Just for the pleasure of see

Straight curtains hold their shape
better by being folded the long way
and lroned double. This keeps them
from bulging and the crease may
be ironed out last, after the whole
curtain is dry. All hand-ironed
curtains look much better if they
are taken Immediately from the
board and hung on the curtain rod
at the window. In this way they
dry thoroughly without wrinkles
and in their proper shape.
Shower curtains should be washed
with soap and water and dried care
fully this time of year. Place them
on table and sponge on both sides
with warm soapsuds Rinse thor
oughly. Dry on table or by hang
ing them back in place so that the
folds do not touch until they are
thoroughly dry and smooth. Warm
weather and soapsuds have ten
dency to make the waxed surface
sticky unless cleaned and dried very
often.
Soft summer blankets may be
washed at home and dried on
dryer. Tie these up in a bag also
and use the same care and soap
and water temperature that you
would for curtains. Be sure to keep
the water temperature the same.
Hang these. folded smooth over a
clothes dryer, out in the air. Turn
and refold them during the day so
that all parts dry equally. With
this care they will turn out soft
and fluffy, clean as a whistle and
In shape. Run a warm iron across
the top ribbon bands and they will
look as though they had been done

These are the things you may
not trust careless person to do
1t is not difficult, but it does take
the type of mind that is interested
in what happens to fabrics under
the influence of hot water and
rough soap, and which gets the
same joy out of turning out a sue
cessful experiment as does the
chemist in his laboratory.

cheese cloth which you keep for the
purpose, or place them in several old
pillow cases. Put about three pairs
of curtains in a case and tie the top.
See that they are not tightly packed,
but that the top of the bag is care
fully tied. If curtains are very
solled, soaking them for about an
hour in boraX will remove the worst
dirt and then they are ready for
soapSuds. Remember that no mat
ter how washable anything may be,
severe changes of temperature do
not help, but the gentlest handling
does, in turning out professional
looking job. Run the washing ma
chine about 10 minutes, rinse in
about three waters, or until the
water is clear If you like a little
stiffening, but no starch, use cup
full of boraX in the last rinse water,
roll the curtains in Turkish towels
and iron when damp. This gives a
fresh, perky appearance which does
not get limp on the first rainy day.
If you have a stretcher this is the
Ideal way to dry your curtains in
shape Note the measurements as
you remove the curtains the first
time, and then you will not have to
measure and adjust the next time
they are washed.
Test a corner of your colored cur
tains to see that they are fast by
placing tie-back or a top corner in
warm water and suds for 10 minutes.
Do not soak solored curtains, but
wash them swiftly in warm suds,
rinse thoroughly with salt in the
last rinse water and dry in the
shade.
Ecru curtains may keep their
color by being soaked in a warm
tea or coffee solution. Green cur
tains may be soaked in water in
which an ounce of alum crystals
have been dissolved in a quart of
water. Lavender and orchid shades
may be soaked in a solution of one
cup spirits of turpentine to quart
of water. To tint any curtains, first
wash carefully and then swish
lightly In the tint until the desired
color is secured.
To iron ruff1ed curtains, press the
