I won- der what • you'd think, just Pr %statute, if 1 were to tell you that I've git ft eerlously in mind to Wet up this home - keeping game altogether? . Because that's exactly what I've got' it seriously in mind to do. It isn't any tudden gimp idea, either. It a thing I have carefully thought out, and it's basted upon a whole lot of mighty vane! grounds. In the,first place, you know, you were never meant to be a housekeeper. Pin saying It all in good part and with no desire on earth to wound, but heaven never designed you for a housekeeper. Housekeeping isn't your game. You can't shine at housekeeping any more than you caa atanalytioal ellen:11347, You have no Instinctive sense of order, no idea of system, no coueeption of method, punctuality and a lot of things like those Nutt contribute to the making of what's known as a successful house- keeper. I don't say that you can help it. Probably you can't. Fact is, I feel con- fident 'that you can't help it. I make these allowances, you know. I remem- ber, you see, the general air of jumbled untidiness ia the home in which you were brought up, and of course I take that into consideration. If "Like father like son" bo true; then why- shouldn't "Like raother, like daughter" be true also? Now hold on. It's not neeessai7 for you to ring n with the reratirk that I'm saying anything about youe mother. She may think she knows how to keep house, just as most women do, But I didn't start to converse on the subject of your mother. Pre not quite such, a chump these days, I hope. In the seeo'nd place, keeping house bores you to extinction. I know that. I've felt it for a loug time. You're the kind of a woman that doesn't care for a home. You feel like something caged in your home. And there's a good deal to be said on your side of the question, too. A hull lot, for that raattee. Because, when all's said and done, a husband is a good' deal of a nuisance and a trial, He's around too much. It doesn't mike a difference how little be really is *wound, he's around the home too much. Then, too, most husbands . ate selfish and self-centred and, inconsiderate en- ough to expeet certain little things around their own home's. Take my own case, for example. I'm just ruffian en- ough to take the view that I shouldn't be asked or expected to eat grub for .• dinner that's burut to a cinder. A. husband- sort of expects his wife to be on the job of running the plane 'occasionally instead of turning the whole cheese over to a boog tnaid whose grand- parents were canuibals somewhere in the Congo. I mention these things rare- ly to show what exacting, no account fatheads most husbands are. Housekeeping, too, keeps you in too much, I've thought about that end of it, too, you see. Why. I suppose there are days when you remain within the Protects You From. Colds!

Take the market- ing, for example. Soinetimes the market- ing requires you to be at the telephone for as long as four minutes a day. Well, that's too much of a good thing— too muolt to ask of a woman.

Often ray heart has ached for you when I've seen you dusting the pietures on the mantel- piece after the dingo had swept out. Fact is, I've oftpu thought of hiring a regular mantelpiece picture duster to save you from that back bending ard- one teat, Occasionally, too, in youtezeat to make at least an attempt to be an imitation of a honselteepeh anyhow, I've seen you sort of beating up the sofa 'pillows in the army corner. You'd have to lift 'em up and then put 'em down again, just like a galley slave. It always hurts me to see you do that hard work, honest. Fact is I dare say you've never guese- ed how I've been sympathizing with you right along. Haven't I often stood by, bitterly re- proaching myself for my comparative indigence, when I've seen you taking the soiled bureau cover off and putting' a clean one on? To do that you had to remove all the combs and brushes and pin trays and cushiope and hand glasses and toilet water bottles and heavy gear like that from the bureau and place the stuff on the bed, and then after putting the clean cover on, 'why, you had to stoop over and put all of that cumber- some stuff back on the bureau again. Haven't I suffered in spirit because I felt myself unable to afford the hiring of a special bureau cover replacer to save you from that crushing toil? Well, taking all of these things into eonsidere.tion, as I say, why, I've doped It out that the ouly thing for us to do is to quit thia foolish attempt to -keep house and to move—say, on the first of May coming—to one of the down town hotels. I could gee .a couple of rootns in one of the down town hotels for practically what I earn, end if I found that it -would take more than I make for a cow pia of rooms of the sort I have in mind for you, 'why I could work niihts, you know, and try and earn a little more. I'd see to it that • we selected- a hotel right elose to the shopping district and the theatres, so that you could practica1. ly fall or roll into the stores and. math nevi without any exertion whatever. By standing lir with the head waiter I could. arrange matters 'so that- you could have all of your meals served in --the hotel apartment., which :would. re - neve areou of the wearing task of going down to the dining rooni in the elevator.

I want to make you comfortable, you know. That's about the only ambition I've got left—to make you just as be - dinged comfortableas you can be made. Housekeeping is one prolonged pen- ance for you. It eoops you up. On the dinge's afternoon off sometimes you are obliged to remain in for fully half an hour to take the marketing off the dumbwaiter when it tomes. We'll send this furniture and. the rot of the junk to an auction room and take what they give us for it. 1 ought to get between $40 and $50 for it, I imagine, It's cost me, I figure, to furnish this apartment, including the little odds and ends that I've bougla and taken pride In from Gino to time—well, it's cost me the better part of three thousand bucks. So that 1 can't see any good reason why an auctioneer shouldn't, be able to cop out between $40 and $60 for it, ate Pd slip you that pine of change to buy a hat with. How's that?

In presenting evidence to preve the ueed of seleutific training of women, .Professor Thomas says: - "At present women as a class not ouly have not the ietelligence equal to the proper rearing of children, but they 'have so completely accepted maeriage n means of luxury, or tit lout as a mode of livelihedel, thee they are apt to end by beiug contented to have nothing to do with children at all, Among the rich, eapecially, the voinata who marries doe* so with the expectation of luxury and finery and the husbaads expects to pro- vide them. "And after marriage the department stores, the milliners, Gm massage par- lor, the silent seerameut of bridge whiat and the struggle for social pre-emblem:1e almose drive the family and faultily life from her. "To the extent, indeed, that women make finery and luxury dominant ideate and provide themselves with no charms of mind and character they are putting themselves and marriage as well in competition with the abandoned clue i. -which these are tho dominant and sole ideas-. "It is also true that there never was e time in the history of the family what it stod zo muck in need of an intern - gent mother. Morality ..ie with refer- ence to society, not to the appetitca of ehe individual, and a theory or prac- tice which restricts the interests of rhe mother and thereby stunts the life i the Wild is, in the,iirofoundeet suite of the word, immoral. Professor Thomas departs front t3e view that monogamy is a cure for all evils in the married state. He says of the question: "There are two errors conceruang inarriage, deeply rooted in the popular mind and feeling —that monogamy is itself something which, if consistently practiced, will settle all the trouble at- taching to the state of matrimony, add that the participation of woman in to- tivities or interests outside the home will lead to the destruction of the family. "'The admirable point about monog- eaay, as praeticed both by animals and mankind, is that it assures the oef- spring unremitting attention from both parents until the period of pubeety, when the new generation is prepared to take up life on its own account. And the period of intmaturity in the off- spring the more importaur is monog- amy.

Herein we see that mere rank aitent4 for nothing ween eaumarea with that are ranker. It is now thoroughly established among the best medical authorities that eczema is purely a skin disease, due to a germ, and curable only through the skin. It is not a blood disease at all; in fact, thousands of people staffer with skin disease and are perfeetly healthy otherwise and thereby prove they have no diseased blood. Smeary salves mulct reach the germs because they do not penetrate the skin, The only way to reach the game is by Means of a penetrating liquid. Such a liquid can be obtained by sim- pler mixing ordinary oil of winter green, with thymol, glycerine and other iheal- ing agents. This compound, known as D, D. D, Prescription, goo the itch in- stantly—and the cures all appear to be permanent. In fact, it took thoueauds of cures, case after ease, before the best scientific authorities were emivineed of the absolute merit of this rentedy. D. la D.
