Half the beauty of the profile is the wav the features are made. and the other half—the most imporiant halt, in my opinion—is the way the head is dressed and the head cariied. 1l my readers wonld understand this, for nothing can be done to change the actual shape of the face. but mira- cles can be accomplished by halding the head right and by fxing the hair becomingly. It is impossible to give more than the most general of rules. The best plan. if you want to improve your prafile, is to look closely and critically at all your friends and all the people vou meet, and see where each woman has gone wrong, or where she has improved ‘herself.

A | satistactory method of preparing salad mixtures for sandwiches is to tear the lettuce into small pléces and mix it with the dressing. Put a g00d cov- ering of this on a slice of buttered bread. then put on the marinated mix ture and cover with the lettuce leaves. It shoull be remembered that salad andwiches are not thin ones, though the bread slices should not be thic ing of Alling of any sort makes poor sandwiches.

Toys-Nor Domestic Conveniences, but Rgal Human Beings Who Want Fair Treatment and Appreciation. WHAT has marriage taught you? “Fhe chief thing that marriage has taught me,” said a man who has had 40 years of experience in matri- mony, “jg that women are human . beings. When a.man acquires that plece of Information It always gives him a bit of a joit, for most men never really think of women as human' beings-at aH. “They think, according to their kind, of women as angels, above all earthly passions, with no nerves,ior pers, oy selfish cravings for e and who find their joy In life i loving the unlovable and forgjvi forgivable, and being a swéet, govey, sticky mass of gentleness and and unseifishness. 6l “Or they think of women as being baby dolli to be dressed up. and Played with, and put on the shelf when they are tired of them. J. ‘Or they think of women pleces of housebold machinery—aort of au- tomatic, seif-starting cooks, and earpet sweepers; and washers and meriders, who rin on their own power and who don’t evem.have to be oiled up with a few Jubricating words of praise now and then, . . ““And so husbands treat their wives according to their conception of what women are,.und that is why marriage is so often a failure, and why there ure so many divorces, Because women dpn't want to be regarded as either saints, or toys, or domestic' conveniences. They want to be treated as human beings. and for their husbands to give them the same’sort of a square deal 2 man giver his business partner. 1t gets on the husband's nerves for the woman to be eternally dunning him for money. It seems to him that before he geta his.bai off in the evening she begins asking for a_Yew dollars for this and for that. bills come in, and they are alway about it, and she thinks that he s stingy “The trouble is that the man i&n’t treating his wife like a rational human being. He is expecting her to’'be a miracle worker and run a heuse on awr. He is humiliatiog her and.making her feel that he Is a tyrant by making her come like a beggar to him for every yenny because he has got an idex that women don’t mind panhandling. Furthermore, he is expecfing her to gauge her expenditures wisely, when she hasn't the faintest idea of what her resources are. ¢ “I have found out that it saves friction over money to make my wife as liberal an allowance as I can. I have found out that if you wilk ex- plain 10 a woman just exactly how the financial situation stands in the family and why you can’t #ford the thing she wants, she will not only do without it gladly, but cut down her expenses in other ways and help you to save. It is believing that their husbands are holding out on them and not splitting fitty-fAifty with them that makes women reckless spenders. “And I have found that a man is a fool who lies to his wife. In the end, she always catches up,with him, and then she imagines things ten times worse than they were. “If a man telephones his wife that he is going to stay downtown and meet a customer from Oshkosh, and she learns that he really played poker with the boys, she pictures a scene of wild debauchery and leaps to the con- clusion that he is leading the double life, and he never hears the last of it. “But if he tells her just what he is going to do, she is so flattered at | being trusted and thought broad-minded enough net to begrudge her husband s pleasure, that she goes 1o bed and goes to sieep instead of wait- ing up for him with a curtain lecture bubbling and sizzling in her mind. “VIARBIAGE has taught me that women think more of words than they do of deeds. and that a woman would rather have her husband tell her that he loves her than to have him work his fingers to the bone for her and never make her a soft speech. ““As long as a husband ‘tells his wife how beautiful she is, and how he would like to deck her out in diamonds and sabies. she i perfectly content to do without them.and wear hand-me-downs. It is only when she thinks that he doesn’t care whether she has fine clothes or not that she gets peevish over not having the finery that other women have. “Marriage has taught me that in the family circle the hammer is a Boomerang that returns and annihilates the hammerer. If you knock your wife's cooking she says. ‘What's the use of trying to please you” and makes no effort to improve: but if you praise her dinners, she -breaks her neck trying to make them better and better. “If you criticize the size of the bills, she avenges hersell by buying something that really costs money: but if you tell her what a help she is to you and what a marvelous manager, she hecomes a nickel-purser. “If you find fault with her hat or. her dress, you have to buy her a new one; but If you tell her how becoming her last vear's costume Is and how it brings out her lines, she will wear it into shreds. “Marriage has taught me that if you let your wife know that you ad- mire her and appreciate her. that you are grateful to her for all that she does for you and that you try to do all in your power to make her happy. she will repay you 4 thousand fold, and that there is nothing she won't do for you and no fault she won't overlook in you.” - * DOROTHY DIX.
