YOUNG woman asks: “What are the 10 qualifications that fit a man to be a good husband and that a girl should lcok for when she is picking out & life mate?” Well, the first qualification of a good husband is for a man to be a real man. A man with de- cision of character, with strength, with reliability and depend- ability and with a sense of honor and obligation. Don't marry a callow youth who is as sure to get tired of his first sweetheart as he is of lollypops. Don't marry a spoiled r.ama's darling who will expect his wife to be as much of a slave to him as his mother has been. ]DONT marry a philanderer who is blown about by every gust of passion and who is just bound to get up and follow every pretty new face. When you pick out a husband select a grown-up man whose tastes and habits are settled, who knows what he wants and who stands by his bar- gains instead of welching on them. Furthermore, if he is the sort of man whose possessions are enhanced in value in his eyes just because they are his—if he always thinks he has the best automobile and the finest radio and the most wonderful ‘og— al the better for you. He is the type of husband who brags about having the greatest wife in the world. And believes it. ECOND, congeniality. It really doesn’t make any difference what sort of husbands and wives men and women are. The only vital thing is that they suit each other. You might marry a saint and be utterly miser- able. You might be married to a sinner and be blissfully happy. The thing that makes a marriage a success or a failure depends on whether a husband and wife think alike and have the same tastes and want to do the same things. Third, ability to make a living. This does not mean that a girl should be a gold-digger or that she should demand that her husband should be a go-getter and supply her with limousines and Paris finery and country homes and such like things. Don't marry for money, but don’t marry a man who can't produce enough of it to support two or three or more in decent coinfort. JFOURTH. good health. Whe depends on_the state of her h ther life is worth living for a wife or not usband’s liver. Therefore, unless you want to be a slave and qualify for martyrdom, pick out a husky, able- bodied man when you take one for better or worse. Don't marry a dys- peptic, because if you do vou will spend the balance of your life sunk in 2 sea of gloom. Don't marry a man who is & quivering bunch of nerves, tor he will be irritable and hard to get along with. Fifth, sportsmanship. Pick out for a husband a man who is willing to give and take and to play fair with a woman. There is hard sledding in marriage and you don't want a husband w ho will turn quitter.

[y 1 - O ANY of the letters of this writ- ing are so hastily and care- lessly formed that they are difficult to recognize. This denotes disregard of detail on the part of the writer. He is probably more interested in the completion of an idea than in the perfection of its stepping stones. In addition he, per- haps, has little regard for convention, but would seem to be the type who would go blithely on his way, giving little thought to the possible disap- proval of others. The printed, vet slightly incomplete capital “I” suggests an interesting though perhaps not a forceful person- ality. This would not indicate a weak- ling by any means. It might, however, be that he is not the type to direct a large organization where decisions in- volving many people’s destinies would have to be made. In his own life he probably has little trouble deciding ex- actly what he wishes to do, but he might_intensely dislike the greater re- sponsibility that would affect others. We should expect him to be studious, being especially interested in literary works. Archeology might also hold great appeal for him. Though he might not care to do any research or explor- ing himself, he probably finds books on the subject of absorbing interest. His wide reading would, perhaps, make him a real authority on some of the questions which would be of value to earnest students. He may feel that he is not a “family man” If he does not marry, however, as he grows older he will look around him and envy his acquaintances who have attractive homes and delightful wives and children. Though he might never admit this feeling even to him- self, it might color his life, making him somewhat of a recluse.

T'S the simplest trimming in the world and yet so absurdly easy to achieve! Just fringed edges of the material neatly stitched into place. You can make use of this trim- ming on a dress of Wool crepe or one of silk crepe with the satisfaction of knowing that you have~-the authority of Paris behind you. Simply cut strips of the material about one inch and & half wide and unravel at one side to obtain a fringe of about three-quarters |of an inch. I ou are using the fringe at the edge of & collar, peplum or cuff, insert it between the outside piece and the facing so that only the fringe shows and then machine-stitch along | the collar, peplum or cuff just above the fringe. This gives a neat finish | and incidentally keeps the fringe from fraying. If you use the fringe as a trimming on bodice or sleeve, cut the material so that you will have an overlapping | section beneath which to insert the strip of fringe. If you are making a Wool crepe dress by ail means make use of this simple trimming device and make a separate scarf of the material edged with the fringe. To make the scarf simply cut two pieces of the material of desired width and length. Baste the fringe to the ends of one strip and stitch a thread or two above the fringe, then stitch one quarter of an inch from the edge along the sides of the scarf. Turn right side out, press and turn under the ends of the scarf above the fringe and stitch neatly down to the piece to which the fringe is sewed. This sounds rather complicated, but it is actually quite a simple operation and one that is sure to give satisfactory results if you go about it with care and precision. Dried Lima Beans. Soak some dried lima beans over night and cook them until soft in the same water, allowing enough water to cook them without throwing any of the water away. Season with butter, pepper and salt. A two-inch square of salt pork or a thin slice of bacon will give a good flavor, BEDTIME STORIES % %o Jumper without appearing to see Reddy took care not to go quite within | jumping distance. He wandered ‘his | way and that all around Reddy. Reddy knew very well that in that snow he must catch Jumper at the first jurp. There could be no chasing him. So once In & while we discover a very | despite his eagerness and hunger he re- timid person doing & very bold |mained motionless while Jumver sat thing, and always it is most sur- | down back to him not more than twe prising. Reddy Fox experienced one of | Jumps away. Reddy fairly trembled these surprises and, because he was| very hungry, he didn't enjoy the sur- | prise at all. | Just as soon as the snow had settled | and packed a little after the great storm Reddy and Mrs. Reddy were out hunting. It wasn't easy going even yet, but they just had to have some- | thing to eat and to get it they must hunt for it. You know just where your next meal is coming from, but Reddy Fox seldom knows where the next meal is coming from. He must | first find it and then as a rule catch it, for it is only now and then that he finds food that does not have to be caught. Reddy had gone over to the Green Forest. He hoped he might surprise a Grouse there or perhaps one of Jumper the Hare's family or at least a Wood Mouse. The last would be but a bite, | but a bite would be better than noth- ing. It was still slow going, for the| snow had not packed enough to fully bear his weight. This was discourag- ing, for it meant that he could not move quickly. His one hope was that he might get within jumping distance | of some one before being seen. So he moved slowly and carefully, stopping to test the air with his nose and to listen with those keen ears of his. His eyes missed nothing. He peered under | snow-covered branches and little trees. He looked for telltale tracks. | Jumper the Hare was happy. He | liked the snow. Never does he feel; quite so safe as when the ground is| covered with snow. The deeper and | softer it is the better he likes it, for Jumper is known as the Snowshoe Rab- bit, although he isn't a true Rabbit and, | of course, he hasn’t snowshoes. But he | has something just as good. He has big feet with long toes which spread, | and these are covered with hair on the under side as well as above. The re- sult is the same as with snowshoes and he can travel easily over snow in which others of not half his size and weight sink and flounder. S> now Jumper was happy, for only | Hooty the Owl or Terror the Goshawk could catch him, and his white coat, as white as the snow, made it almost im- possible for even their sharp eyes to| see him unless he moved. He saw Reddy Fox before Reddy saw | him. In fact he saw Reddy while he was still some distance away, You see | against that white snow Reddy's red coat seemed even redder than usual. | Now with no snow on the ground it would have been the other way round, for Jumper's white coat would have made it difficult to get or keep out of sight, and he would have taken to his long heels at once on the approach of | Reddy. You know Jumper is one of the most timid of animals. Now instead of running away he be- came bold and actually hopped to meet, Reddy. He pretended that he didn't see Reddy, but was simply hopping along about his own business. Now and then he would stop and sit up to reach for a bud or a bit of bark on the ten- der shoot of a small tree. Reddy crouched flat the instant he saw Jumper and did not move. His eyes gleamed with hungry eagerness. Here was a dinner worth while. “BONERS” Humorous Tid-Bits School Papers. Jumper Teases Reddy.

So timid Jumper boldly continued to tease Reddy Fox. (Copyright, 1931.) Rice Griddle Cakes.
