Enclosed is 15 cents for Provokes in Marriage Quarrel DorothyDix No Model of All the Big Virtues Can Succeed in Marriage Unless He Has the Little Virtues, Too. way a husband or wife said “yes” or “no” or “good morning” had more to do with marital happiness than truth and fidelity. I think he is right. Marriage is & topsy-turvy affair in which the scale of values is all upset. Little things outweigh big things. The appar- ently unimportant is really the vital thing, and success depends more upon the amenities than the virtues. As in the old music hall ditdy, ! N intelligent and thoughtful man said to me the other day that the It isn't what he said, it’s the narsty way he said it,” that starts a thousand domestic fights, What husband or wife said may have been innocuous enough of itself. It was the mean, contemptuous, insulting tone of voice that made the party of the other part see red and go to it hammer and tongs. Why, a woman can say nothing at all. She can just slam a door pehind her in a way that shouts to her husband that she considers him a grinding tyrant and a tightwad and & pig-headed boor to boot. WEEN & couple gets a divarae the law forces them to accuse each other of some crime. Half the ime there are merely trumped-up charges, and in the other half ¥ is not so often the big fault that a husband or wife finds it so impossible to forgive as the little hatefulnesses, the nag- ging, the fault-finding, the surliness, the stabbing of sarcastic speeches that have become unendurable. More homes are wrecked by ants eating away their foundations than are blown away by cyclones, As a matter of fact, in marriage the graces count far more than do the rock-bound, solid qualities that go to make up a fine character. For in reality we never love people for their virtues. We love them because they are pleasant and agreeable and adaptable and easy to get along with. THIS is more true in marriage than in any other relationship in life. No man ever cherishes a woman because she is a model wife and mother and thrifty and a good cook. If she is his “heart,” it is because she js understanding and tender and because she jollies him along and makes life gay and amusing to him. She always says the thing that soothes him when he is ruffied; that bucks him up when he is discouraged; that restores his faith in himself and hangs the sun in his heaven, and that is why many a man adores a wife who is extravagant, a bad manger, and who spends more time on her bridge than she does on her housekeeping. And it also explains the curi- ous phenomenon that so many good wives, wives who did their full duty by their husbands, but who felt called upon to tell their husbands of their faults and who were about as pleasant house companions as a fretful porcupine would be, are living on alimony. SAME way with women. When a man is faithful to his wife and a good provider, he pats himself on the back and never doubts that the con- templation of these virtues will keep her perpetually on her knees thanking heaven for having sent him to her as an answer to her prayers for a good husband. Nor does he doubt that she will be perfectly happy and keep wildly, thrillingly in love with him no matter how grouchy he is nor how he neglects her nor how penurious nor how high-tempered. Plenty of the most miserable and disappointed wives in the world are women married to men who have every virtue under the sun except the virtue of being livable. They are peevish and fault-finding at home and nothing ever pleases them. They are cold and frigid and never show their Wwives any sympathy or understanding or tenderness. They are so stingy that their wives have almost to chloroform them to get out of them the housekeeping money. "THAT is why we often see the spectacle of & woman clinging to & drunkard or a wastrel or a ne'er-do-well who has nothing to give her but a few kind words and a little attention, and why we see so many reconciled widows of men who were held up as examples to youth in the communities in which they lived. Doing one’s duty in marriage isn’t enough. It has never yet made marriage a success. The happy marriages are those in which the obliga- tions of marriage are hidden under so many roses that they never obtrude themselves. To do this husbands and wives must realize that the little things in marriage are more important than the big things. A woman must Tealize that the thing that makes her husband glad or sorry he married is the way she greets him when he comes home tired and worn of an evening, and particularly the way she sends him off to work. ’I‘km way she listens to him when he tries to tell a story or of his hopes and plans—with rapt attention or with only half an ear—is significant. ‘The way she praises him or belittles him before others. The sporting way with which she takes bad luck or the whining complaints with which she bemoans her Iot in getting a husband who is a fallure. . And husbands must realize that the happiness of marriage for a woman is wrapped up in trifles, the temperature of a kiss, the remembering of an anniversary, the spontaneity of a compliment, even so small a thing a5 the price of & movie ticket. It isn’t what they do or say. It is the nice or nasty way they do it that counts in marriage. 5 DOROTHY DIX. (Copyright, 1933.) STAR, WASHINGTON, SONNYSAYINGS ‘ BY FANNY Y. CORY.
