take her away from her present en-
vironment, make her live in much
humber neighborhood and a much
humber way, and refuse to 60 into
company at all until she learned to
treat him with decent respect. But
Eugene, under this treatment,
would add one more marriage to the
thousands that are broken up be-
cause Of bad manners every year.
However, when you realize why
she is acting this way you may find
your own cure. Analysis of the dis
ease is always the first step. Wives
treat their husbands so cavalierly
because they are ashamed of them.
Eugene probably is going about
with richer women, women whose
husbands are more successful. Her
sneers and snubs are expressions of
humiliation. She is saying to her
friends, without exact words, ''I
don't think Larry is so much! I
don't want you to think I'm salts
fed with him!"
In her heart she probably is more
than satisfied. She knows what
serene home life, free from ankle
ties, you give her. She has a part
time maid, a garden, lovely children.
But all that doesn't count against
the need she feels to impress her
friends. Loyalty to you counts for
nothing, if only she can be sure that
they are not laughing at her or pity
ing her.
An Effective Treatment.
Some years ago wife of my ac-
quaintance had this trouble with an
inconsiderate husband. He hurt her
feelings, interrupted her, scorned
her opinions, laughed, bantered,
teased until she was almost a nerv-
GUS wreck. Finally, for she was a
dignified, cultured woman who could
afford to take this position, she be-
gan to counter quietly "You must
forgive Billy's manners" Over and
over again she would say it pleas
antly enough, alphabetically. Billy
protested that he had splendid
manners, and she asked him seri-
ously, Didn't your mother or some
one ever do anything about your
manners, Billy"
Before she started a story at a
dinner table she would say, "I'm
afraid my husband is going to inter-
rupt me and correct me, so don't
mind it, for I'm used to it." She
kept a little list of the times he
had fatty and mistakenly contra
dicted her, and although she never
showed it to anyone else she did
occasionally good-naturedly call his
attention to it.
Finally it was Billy who began to
get nervous. There is small fun in
badgering and correcting and in
terpolating when the victim of it is
all ready to demonstrate ones bad
manners at the first opportunity.
And the upshot actually was that
Billy was cured.

tBen syndicate-wNU Service,

A YOUNG married woman
~ in a Kentucky town is a
4 \ good housekeeper and a
good mother to two small girls.
She keeps her expenditures well
within her budget line and is a
faithful wife. But she is invari-
ably sneering, rude or inatten-
tive to her husband when they
are in company, and he gets
very tired of it.
Eugene spoils any party for
me-" he writes, whether it's
just having her sister to dinner
or whether it's a big affair at the
club, by making fun of me all
the time. At home she's always
nice to me, and often acts upon
my suggestions or asks my ad-
vice. But the minute we're out
in company she is rude. l don't
think she knows it. But look at
fellows whose wives are sweet
to them and, gosh, I surely do
envy them.
ITO have wife smile at you,
and listen to you, and agree with
you, and even tell other people what
you say or think would be heaven
to me. And the worst of it is that
I know Eugene really doesn't feel
the amused contempt she is always
showing toward me.
'sNow, for instance" this letter
continues, ''if I say that Jones has
had fifty-dollar raise, Eugene says
in low tone to everyone in the
group, Thirty I say, oh, I'M
derstand it was 600 a year, and
she says, 1T was Somebody laughs
and says, That's fifty month,
Eugenie,' and she says carelessly,
Well, Larry never gets anything
straight anyway
Always Sc0ffing.
Later suggest taking hamburg
ers to the picnic. Eugene looks
around the circle and says, sOh, for
heavens sake, think of something
original!' If I comment upon Euro
pean affairs, she murmurs to some
one, Not that Larry ever reads any,
thing but the contest If I have any
trouble with the car she seems actu-
ally triumphant over it, and will
laugh as she jumps into somebody
else's car, saying, Larry can't man.
age the old bus again.
II gave her an ice-box last year
as a surprise; some woman friend
looking at it, had to say as women
always do, oh, why did you get
this brand? Why didn't you get a
So-and-so?' This is $27 cheaper,
darling Eugene said, right before
me.
''If ! tell joke or anecdote with
which she is familiar she will barely
wait until the last word before say
ing, Are you finished, Larry?' Her
illusions to me are: That husband
of mine and his queer IDEAS You
know Larry, Please don't bore
them with that, Larry

the neighborhood in which we

pie decline a dinner invitation; that
the wrong ones don't; that little

US. Supreme Court
UphoIds Use Tax
In Iowa Decision

WASHINGTON, Feb. IT, (UP)-
The supreme court toGay held that
Iowa may collect its per cent use
tax on the mail order business of
Sears, Roebuck & Co., and Mont
gomery. Ward and Co.
The decision may have wide
spread repercussions because II
other states have use tax statutes
similar to the iowa levy. About
S500,00O,000 in annual revenue for
Iowa was involved in the case.
The tax requires the seller OF
every article of tangible personal
property sent into the state for use
in Iowa to collect the tax as agent
of the state. regardless of whether
the actual sale took place within
or outside the state. Intended to
complement the state sales tax, it
eXempts property on which the
Iowa sales tax or the sales OF use
taxes of any other state have been
collected.
The court reversed a state su-
preme court decision holding the
tax inapplicable to the two mail
order firms.
