M AGAZINE PAGE, How to Buy Furniture at Sales BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. AVOID GETTING MODERNISTIC PIECES TO GO WITH ANTIQUE FUR- TURE. OR THE REVERSE. ANUARY and February are two months in the year in which there are usually especiel valus in furniture to be found in the stores. It is & good time to buy. ‘The stores would not offer the pieces and sets at the reasonable prices marked without hoping they would t-mpt buy- ers. One rezson for these cales is that deelers need floor space for new furni- ture. It takes a great deal of spage to display furniture, especially when # is shown to advantage. Some articles are included because there is no assortment —just odd pieces remain. These may be choice, vet are offered at extremely nounced in characior. . Another group of sales articles con- sists of those which are slightly shop- worn. If the homemaker finds among such pieces of furniture needed sets or separate pieces and they are well made, | here is her opportunity to buy thriftily. | She should be willing to overlook the marks which are the cause of the re- | ns and which would come eventu- | from usage, since the cost is com- paratively small. Many of these marks can b> eliminated by rubbing well with | = good furniture polish, a job which she, | herself, can do. When buying separate articles re- member that the pieces picked out must | accord well with other furnishings in GOOD TASTE TODAY BY EMILY POST. Famous Authority on Etiquette. Notes and Visits.

She should realize that there is a reason for the reduced prices. Some of the excelient causes have been enumerated. It should also be remembered that all sorts of pieces, some good, some poor, and some indifferent, find their way into sales rather more than one expects to find in regular stock. A customer should be very careful in making selections when | pricas are reduced, especially when sales | are final owing to the low cost.

C, SATURDAY, DOROTHY DIX’S LETTER BOX Woman Who Will Not Make Friends Handi- caps Her Husband—Marrying for a Home All Right for Domestic Woman. Only knew my wife three months before we married. She has the sweetest and most jovial disposition I ever saw, never frets or wor- ries about anything. But she is perfectly satisfled to stay at home and never go anywhere and have no companionship except her mother’s and sister’s. She will not attempt to make new friends or even Teturn calls. It would be greatly to my advantage for her to make social contacts, but she refuses to do 50, and when I want to entertain my friends 1 always have to take them to a restaurant. She is never willing for me to bring them to our home. If I want to go to see my friends or even to a show I have to go alone. Do you think that it is good for a young couple to live just to themselves, with no outside interests or friends? One other thing. I have nevey been able to carry on an intelligent conversation with my wife, X. DIAE MISS DIX—I am a man of 33 and have been married 10 years. NSWER—Wcll, Mr. X, if you are married to & woman with whom you cannot carry on an intelligent conversation, you must admit that the fault s yours. Even if you knew your wife for only three months before you married her, that certaintly should have given you ample time to get a lin> on her intellectual range and find out approximately, at least, how much brains and culture she had. Evidently you did not think it worth while to try to find out what was inside the head whose pretty outside you were admiring. In that you are like thousands of other men who are so enamored of a girl's Jooks or so swept off their feet by her physical appeal that they never stop to consider whether she will make an entertaining life companion or not. If when a man is courting a young woman he would spend more time in talking to her about topics of world interest and less in telling her what soulful eyes she has and how wonderful and beautiful she is, there would be fewer bored husbands. OP course, your wife's mental limitations explain why she does not want to meet strangers or go out into society. She feels her inferjority and it humiliates her. Also, she is doubtless self-indulgent and lazy and doesn't want to make the effort required in trying to entertain people. 1t is certainly a great handicap to a man to be married to a woman who is not socially minded and who will not do her part in making friends. For many a woman dces as much to push her husband’s fortunes by being a good press agent for him as he does by his own good work. Half the time in choosing our dentist or our doctor or the shops we patronize we are in- fluenced more by liking that nice little Mrs. Jones or that agreeable Mrs, Smith or that Mrs. Brown we are on & committee with than we are by the service their husbands can give. T is & good thing for married people to méke friends and to go about, be- cause it broadens them, gives them a wider outlook and a fresh interest in life. People who live just to themselves and who have few con- tacts with other people grow narrow and opinionated. And husbands and wives who pass their who'e lives in the narrow limits of the home circle get cn each other’s nerves. Generally you will find such a couple sitting up of ;r\lkex;nhl"g in a silence that you can cut with a knife because they have alked out. Better far for a couple to step out too much than not to step out at all. They, at least, bring something fresh and vital back into the home. They keep alive, with their interests always fresh and alert. They have been to places and done things and they have amusing incidents to discuss and things to laugh over and are not the Gloomy Guses whose world is bounded by their homes. DOROTHY DIX. BT DEAR MISS DIX—I have been keeping company with a man for several years, have given up almost everything for him, and did it willingly because I love him. But he will not get married until his mother passes away. There is another man who is continually asking me to marry him. He has everything to offer me, but I have nothing to give him, not even love. He is willing to take that chance. Is it my duty to sacrifice my life for the man I love or take the man I don't love and learn to love him? I would like to be married and have children. ANXIOUS. Answer—There isn't any question of duty in your case. It is entirely a matter of preference. There is certainly no reason on earth why you should sacrifice your youth and your chance to marry and settle yourself comfortably and have the family you desire for a man who loves his mother better than he does you. ’I‘HAT is what it comes to. Either his affection for his mother or his sense of duty to her outweighs any feeling he has for you. Perhaps he can- not afford to supporth both a mother and a wife. Perhaps his mother is one of those possessive mothers who cannot bear to share their sons with :;]wtfiwr ‘woman, and she has made him promise never to marry as long as e lives, You do not state why he cannot marry until his mother passes on, but in either case your prospects are enough to chill the stoutest heart. You have nothing to look forward to but the hope deferred that maketh the heart sick, endless waiting, ghastly waiting for a woman to die. CEHTAINLY any practical common sense would suggest to you to give up your faint-hearted and lukewarm lover, who might mot after all find you attractive encugh to want to marry you when the long years of wait- ing have taken their toll of your good looks and take the good chance that is offered you. But before you do so look well into your own heart, which is an unruly member, and try to decide whether you can coerce it into be- stowing its affections where it should. There are women who are of such an affectionate nature that they could love any man who was kind and good and be happy with him. There are other women—one-man women—who give all the love that is in them to some one particular man and who never have anything to give another man. It is their curse never to cease loving the one on whom’they have set their hearts, and they are happier waiting for him or even loving him without any hope of ever marrying him than they would be as the wife of the best man on earth. DOROTHY DIX. .. JDEAR MISS DIX—How far should a woman trust her intuitions? I have recefved a number of anonymous letters, most of them written by the same persons, warn'ng me that my husband was philandering, but somehow or other I have a strong feeling of trust in him. He has plenty of chances 40 lead a double life if he chose to, but I have faith that he doesn't do it. Despite the realization that I can't compete with youth, charm or physical beauty, I have an inward conviction that he is playing the game fair and square. Am I a perfect fool? Am I living in a fool's paradise and storing up trouble for myself? BARBARA JEANNE. Answer—I think you are a wise woman to play your hunch about your husband and pay no attention to the enonymous letters. People who write anonymous letters are cowards and eneaks who are afraid to sign their names lest they might be called upon to prove their charges. They are mostly liars and slanderers. As for your husband having chances to be unfaithful to you, every man in the world has that, and when he is true to his wife it is not because she watches him, but because of his love for her and his sense of honor. So disregard the anonymous letters and be happy. DORO' (Copyright, 1933.) it . "SCREEN ODDITIES BY CAPT. ROSCOE FAWCETT. LATER PLAYED IN EVERYDAY PSYCHOLOGY BY DR. JESSE W.

From Nova Scotia southward through New England and westward to Lake Ontario, the trees flourish and send their seed children abroad on a kindly breeze. In April the male and female flowers are borne on the same tree, byt in sep- arate catkins. The flowers are pol- linated by the wind and the ripe seeds are aided by the same godmother. The leaves are a lustrous green above and yellow underneath. They flutter and dance with every breeze, are simple, and have double saw-toothed edges. In the Autumn, when the leaves have de- parted, the V-shaped black marks are exposed. It is these dark spots, seen frem a distance, that causes the tree to be confused with the canoe birch, The bark is chalky white, with a yel- lowish undercoat, and it does not rub off. The wood is weak, soft-grained and not durable in contact with soil. It takes & high polish and is used in veneer work. The tree is & wonderful nurse for hardwoods. (Copyright, 1933.) .
