They NAV be a little more difficult

danger of bulging zippers and other

In eirdles. the wonderful "Stay-

ers. This, as you probably already
know. is a marvellous stiffened band
around the top of the girdle. which
prevents it from turning over and
rolling down-no matter how many
hours you sit at desk or bridge
table. Lots of nylon is being used
for the side panels. with elaSti-
cized satin and other stretchv ma
terials used back and front to give
you that up and down" look.
Pantie girdles are more popular
than ever-particularly among the
Young set Nice feature of most Of
them is that YOU need not wash
the entire girdle nightly-just the
pantie part.
Bras are definitely in the news
this year. thanks to nylon and to
the cleverness of designers who

Criticism From Those We Love
Often Hurts Rather Deeply

own families. and especially does
every husband and wife long to be
glori1ed in each others eyes.
Every man wants his wife to
admire him. He wants her to
think that he is as strong as a
giant. as wise As Solomon, and that
some day he is going to set the
world on fire He not only wants
his wife to feel this way about him,
but it is necessary TO him that she
should DO so. For it is a matter
of record that the minute a wife
loses faith in her husband and
lets him see what a poor weak little
creature she thinks he is he goes
to pieces, financially and morally.
Same way with a woman. Her
happiness, her health, her efficiency
as a wife depends upon her belief
that her husband always sees her
as she was as bride-yOung and
beautiful and starry-eyed. As long
as he tells her that she is still pref
tier than her daughter and that
he likes EN- plump, and that she
has made him what he Is. she will
work her fingers to the bone for
him and be glad 10 do it and be
blind as a bat to his every fault.
But if he compares her invidiOusly
with young and gay women and
makes her realize that he sees her
as nothing but middlesged
woman who is a poor housekeeper
it turns her peevlsh ana fretful and
makes her slump. Many man has
to eat bad cooking because he thinks
he is free to tell his wife just what
he thinks about her.
And the children, the poor. help
less children who have to bear the
brunt of family frankness Half the
men and women who are failures
are the victims Of home truths.
They had parents who cursed them
by giving them inferioritv COM
pleXes by always telling them of
their weaknesses.
No. frankness has no place in do
mestic life. 1t is there that di-
plomacy is required more than any
where else. 1t is those with whom
we live and have daily contact that
we should handle with gloves and
to whom We should say things in
a way that will not offend them, nor
iniure their vanity.
For We can take criticism from
strangers. but not from those we
love. 1t hurts too badly.

The Idea generally prevails that
the members of family are priv
tleged to treat each other with per-
feet frankness. Husbands say
things to their wives that they would
never dream of saying to their secre-
taries. Wives do not pull any of
their punches when they 60 for their
husbands faults. And if the chill
dren have any defects or peculiar
tiles. their parents feel it their sacred
duty to keep them continually re-
minded Of them. No man would be
rude enough to tell strange wom-
An that she was getting tat and
showed her age or that her dress
was too Young for her, or that her
new green hat made ner look like q
SaleratuS biscuit. But he does not
hesitate 10 make such remarks TO his
wife when she dips into the mayon-
naiSe. or shows him her new clothes.
A man acquaintance might murder
the English language and swallow his
knife at the table without a woman
even raising her eyebrows at him,
but let her husband forget his Emily
Post even for a moment and she
wants to know how she is ever going
to rear civilized children when they
have a father who talks like an
tgnoramuS and eats like a pig. And
as for the poor little kiddieS. they
grow up under such barrage OF
criticism that they think that

phrase for it. We call 1t telling

domestic use.
Now why people feel that they
have a right to make themselves
more obnoxious in the family circle

thing, and it is an even queerer
vagarv of the human mind that
rauseS a man TO believe that his wife
