Then he is in reality the mental guard for his party. He must know where every Democrat is and be able to report his whereabouts to Senator Joe Robinson, the minority floor leader.

This is not very compli- mentary to us and we might well dis- pute it, although it is, presumably, put forward in our defense. But, putting that point aside, it is interesting to look' at another view of what the ?evtlopm!nt of the factory done for us. It is improbable that it has, on the whole, increased the rtion of those who are forced to lal It 1s more bable that it has systematized our r and given us better pay. In the countries where civilization least advanced the largest amount of work and the most underpaid work is done by our sex. Where modern ma- chinery is little known the weaker members of society, bear the brunt of the industrial work. The proportion of women who work in factories in America is small in eemglmon with the proportion who, in the less progressive European coun- tries, bear burdens better fitted for men and carry on by hand in their homes the work done by machinery here. The development of the factory was a great factor in giving us our rightful economic position. The larger part of the work previously done us was paid for indirectly, if at all. If the work was household work alone—and a heavy burden that was in the days when cloth had to be woven and clothes made by hand, when the Winter's provisions had to be stored and preserved—such work was paid for, indirectly, by maintenance only. When the work of women was con- tributed to the outside world, as in agricultural labor and home industries, the case was worse. Men had direct money dealings with the market. ‘Women, for this work done over and ;:?Amh t.hzlrm household l’cllu'.lel. ‘were y maintenance on ‘The ! has changed all that. us from our LITTLE BENNY BY LEE PAPE.

Every day we see brilliant men and women making marriages that a con- genital idiot would know are bound to turn out disastrously. We see the middle- aged man woman making as silly a choice of a wife or husband as any lovesick, hobbledehoy boy or flapper could make. We see men and women who have been bitterly unhappy in a first marriage plunging into a second marriage that will make them even more wretched. We see husbands and wives who have made mud ples together in infancy, who have gone to school together and grown up together, getting divorces because of incompatibility of temperament. So when we ask why men and women don’t find out all about each other before marriage and ascertain whether they are congenial or not and thus avold mlk:n#e ldl:: mistakes that wreck so many homes, we are talking nonsense. It can' ne. Marriage does something weird to remm' characters that changes them 80 that they become different personalities, so that the John Jones and Mary Smiths, who have known each other all their lives, discover after marri; that th.:’v don’'t know each other at all. They are as complete sf igers as if they had never set eyes on each other until the bride lifted her veil after the wedding ceremony. John would have sworn that he knew every quirk in Mary's temper and temperament, and that he could diagram her every fault and virtue. Mary is rfectly certain that John is an open book that she can read at sight, and that E: hasn’t a thought, nor a taste, nor a hope, nor an inspiration, nor a good quality, nor a bad one that is hidden or a secret from her. And everybody says what & sane and safe than it is for a young couple to marry when they have been companions since childhood and know all about each other. But mai changes their relationship to each other. It puts each more or less in the er's power. It develops either faults or virtues. Above all, it turns the spotlight on every defect. It takes the intimacy of daily association for us to find out how mean and selfish or how noble and fine an individual is. No girl, even if she is the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter, can tell beforehand what sort of husband & man is going to make, no matter what knowl- edge she possesses of his past. Nor has a man the prophetic power to tell what sort of wife a girl will make, He can’t tell whether her solicitude for him will turn into nagging, nor whether her little motherly attitude that he finds so enchanting will develop into petty tyranny. Probably no man and woman makes the kind of husband and wife that those they married expected them to make. Nor, probably, do any man and woman m:::‘t.h: I}‘n?)t o{h hu;bln: ;fi% wife they mt.‘ho'.\;’lm t}rl\ey ‘were ?ifll hdmln. for m n e broa way runn rough rose gardens an mur- muring rills that lovers think it is. . - Nor is there any way to tell beforehand how matrimony is going to affect a man or woman. There are lazy men that it turns into go-getters. It turns selfish girls into self-abnegating wives and mothers, and other girls into gold-diggers who work their husbands to death to indulge them. And so, while our Moham- medan sisters undoubtedly have a rlglt to see what they tie up with it, there isn’t much good that it will do them. L4 . Baked Loster. Chocolate Frosting.

Several of my readers have written telling me the beautiful tan acquired this Summer, but in the same letter they have complained that while their skin put on this deeper hue, their eyes, as well as their eyebrows and lashes, seemed to become lighter and were not at all in keeping with the deeper toned complexion. This is a common experi- ence. As a matter of fact, it isn't likely that the eyes or brows have actually become any lighter, but while the skin has darkened, they have remained the same shade. To correct this faded a) rance of the eyes it is necessary to give the brows and lashes some special attention. Light brows and lashes blend in with her skin tints when milady applies the dark powders and rouges suited to her tanned skin. Beauty operators have realized this and many of them dye these little hairs with a harmless vege- table dye, toloring the brows of the brunette & black hue. Lashes, too, are Blend the shadow v dyed the same shagde and it is almost unbelievable what & vast difference this little change can make in one's appear- | ance. While the thin fine line which was chic for brows some years 8go is no longer in vogue, the brows should still be tapered enough to give them a well groomed appearance. This may be done with the tweezers. Before using them it is a good plan to apply a small towel wrung out in hot water, as this will open the pores. After the apply cold cream to soothe the ose who worry because their seem to look too light against tanned skins will find that in addition | to coloring the brows and lashes, using | a little eyeshadow does wonders toward making eyes appear larger, deeper and more vivid. This cosmetic comes in va- rious shades, so milady should choose the one suited to her own eye coloring. Those with brown or black eyes will use | the brown eye shadow, apply! just a very thin film of it with the fingertip on the lid from the lashes to the crease in the lid.
