Husband Crop ‘Which Shall It Bet |DorothyDix If You're Looking for a Good Provider, If You Want a Life of Jazz, or a Charming Lover, or a Pal. GIRLS' club writes me: “Which section of the country produces the blue-ribbon brand of husbard? When a wise Jane selects her mate, should she pick out a New Englander, or a New Yorker, or a Westerner, or a Southerner?”’ That is a question that it is impossible to answer definitely. No one part of our great and glorfous land has a monopoly on rearing our prize product, the Great American Husband. He comes from everywhere and, while he 1§ not without fault or blemish, he Is far and away the best in the world. And, of course, after all, the matter goes back to the individual man. There are prize apples and rotten apples in every orchard. There are good husbands and bad husbands in every State and county and hamlet. But un- doubtedly, just as one part of the country produces bumper crops and another sparse harvests, just as the fruit in one place has a different flavor from the fruit in another, so there is a difference in the husbands produced in different sections. ngland man is, for instance, a warm lover and a cold hus- band. He has the fascination of the volcano under snow, So to speak, and it flatters a woman's vanity so much to think that she has had . the power to inspire a burning passion in a clam-on-ice that she i§ ready to say “yes” whenever he pops the questio The New England man can marry virtually any woman he wants to, but his wife finds out that as soon as she {s united to him in the holy bonds of wedlock he congeals again. He does all of his love-making before mar- riage, and he never mentions the state of his affections to her again until he has “Beloved Wife" carved on her tombstone. The New Probably he cares just as much for his wife as the ordinary run of men do, but he is like Barrie's hero. He regards it as an awful thing to say “love” when people are not sick. Besides, he does not hold jollying to be among the domestic virtues. The New England man considers that he does his duty by his wife when he provides her with a comfortable home, and he expects her to do her duty to him by being a good housewife and a thrifty manager, and if she wants anything more out of matrimony than baked beans and codfish balls he regards her as flighty and unreasonable. A good, solid, substantial man to tie to is the New Englander. The woman who gets one is reasonably sure of her meal ticket. Nor is she apt to have to endure any pangs of grinding jealousy. Her husband is not sentimental by nature, and if he does not make love to his wife, neither is he given to making love to other women e .. F MATRIMONY were conducted on the basis of a six months' tour to the Promised Land the New Yorker would be the ideal husband. Love- making is the best little stunt that he does, and his favorite indoor sport And if, unfortunately, he is a trifle prone to whisper sweet nothings in the nearest ear, it is just his wife’s misfortune that she isn't always next. A New Yorker's idea of being a perfect husband is to show his wife a good time. He makes of her a show window that he drapes with im- ported finery and hangs with jewels. He trots her around to plavs and cabarets and restaurants, and he is the only man in the world who con- siders t it is more of a wife's duty to keep her finger nails polished than it is to sweep up the floors. The New York man expects few domestic virtues of his wife. He is satisfied to eat delicatessen messes and tc substitute a lap dog for a baby, but he expects her to look llke a daily hint from Paris and to be able to do the last jazz step. A charming husband pro tem. is the New Yorker. But the woman who acquires one has o be on her job to keep him, for he is always a household ornament coveted by other women. "HE Westerner Is triend husband. I size in which a man and woman go fifty-fif! pleasures and perquisites of life.

PEATTIE. Spring Beauties. Sharp are the eyes that see the first Spring beauty. For, though, this flower is common in the District in the month of March and thereafter until May, its blooms are so ephem- eral that, like the shooting stars, al- most before a man may say “Behold! they are gone. Swiftly blooming, swiftly withering, such is the life of beauty. But this only when one goes out to search for the prettiest little flower of March. Spring beauties are mostly to be found in rich dark loam in the woods. Among deep green leaves, atop slen- der stems, one, two or three frall blossoms grow, blossoms of the sort that wither as soon as they are picked. Nodding in bud, the flowers at maturity stand upright, offering ltke shallow chalices, their wide corollas to the sky. The petals are of crimson pink or rarely white, with deeper veins of pink that start from vellow bases. The golden stamens add their elegance to this miniature beauty, and to them come both but- terfiles and bees to gather nectar and collect the pollen for cross-fertiliza- tion. There is a little story about Spring beauty which all nature lovers must treasure. It tells how John Torrey, early father of American botany, when just a lad, was given an old- fashioned primer of plant study. All Winter long beside the hearth at night the boy pored over the dim pages, longing for the Spring And when the first warm days came he hastened out in the flelds (his home in the middle of Manhattan Island was in the country then) to try his new lore in identifying the first flowers. Spring. beauty met his eye before all others, and for this reason it remained forever the favorite flower of that early American bot- Costs More —Worth It} We do more than guarantee Occident Flour—we guarantee your baking—the results that Occident will produce for you.
