Science Makes
Life Tough For
Hubby Who Fibs
BY RUTH

Science, which is so callous
about robbing us of our illusions.
has discovered that the person
who looks you straight in the eye
is more likely to be lying than the
person who doesn't keep his gaze
steady.
There's going to be trouble when
the women of the country let the
full meaning of that sink in. Think
of all the times they have believed
men, against their better judg-
ment, just because the men were
able to look them straight in the
eye while telling some ~hard-to-be-
lieve story.
The only way for the men to
lick this scientific discovery is to
start right now practicing the new
optical finesse.
What Every Woman Knows
Get ready, men to look your
shiftiest when. you tell the little
woman:
"You know I never look twice
at any woman but you, dear"
Sure, I stopped for a drink
but I had to, honey. You can't
turn down the boss"
II wish I could take you on this
convention-but there aren't any
other wives going along and Pm
afraid you'd have a pretty dull
time-since I'll be in meetings all
the time"
"Sure, I'm listening ..."
"You think my new secretary's
good looking? Maybe SO. I hadn't
noticed"
"Of course I haven't forgotten
what day this is"
And Heaven help you if you
forget and look the little woman
straight in the eye when you pull
one of those.
