e e ! ¥ What Has a Husband a Right to Exp By DOROTHY DIX. { A man has a Hght to expect his wite | not to throw away the bait with which | she caught him as soon as they are mar- ried, No son of Adam would ever have underiahen to support a lady if he had only seen her when her head bristied with curl papers, her nose was shiny wih coll cream and she was attired in a wrapper | that was not on speaking terms with the wash tub Nor doss marriage change the mascu this subject. A unattractive | Yine. point of view on froway woman is just married s single and no woman has a right to expect her husband to display coming home to an enthusiasm about her of an evening unless she presents at Jeast A neat appearance. Befors marriage a woman dpes her best to make herself agreeable to & man, When he calls of an evening she In bright and cheerful, she devotes hersel! to amusing him, above all she hangs with baited breath upon his utterances, Iaughs st his jokes, encores his stories and feeds him on all the flattery tha' he will swallow, This makes a hit with the man, He marries to get more of it, and to acquire a psrmanent audicnes that will always give him the glad hand, and an incanss burner who will never weary of the task of lighting joss-sticks befors him Yet you could eount on your fingers the number of wives among your per sonal acquaintances who never throw a compliment their husbands’ way or who don’t Interrupt them in the middle of their best story to ask you whut you think about the Intest cut in fashion This is bad poliey and bad faith, The man who married to get somebody to ad mire him has a right Lo expect a steady diet of the same brand of flattery which his wife uged in ante-nuptial days and that she will continus to make herself A% agreeable as u wife as she was as a sweetheart A man has a right to expect that his wife will control her tongue and temper, 1, myself, belleve that temper should he the first cause for divorce and that efther A man or a woman who finds that he or #he s married to a person with an uniiv able temper should have the privilege of dissolving the matrimonial partnership where one member of the firm is xo dis nagresabls that it s impossible to get along with him or her There I8 no use In saying that a woma can’'t control her temper.

Nor does |t confer the privilege upon her of nagg'ng him to death, although many wives ap pear to think that it does, This Iy a mistake. | The very least thut a man bhas u iight to ekxpect of his wife is that she shall | conduct hersell like a lady instend of a fishwife, Nor does he marry to get sH>m one to continually harp upon his faults Marringe {8 never go complete a fallure A8 when a man Is afrald of his wife bs- cause of her temper and her tongue, and becavss the more he in A gentleman the leas capable he in of dealing with her as she deserves, | A man has a right to expe 't tha' a wife | #hall respect his personal liberty, By the A TIMES SQUARE and G ASKE POR™Y jnm;. for a cat | elaimed that they are so easily domesti- ATV OO T A 621 Residents of Nebraska registered at Hotel Astor during the past year, | 1000 Rooms. 700 with Bath. fs“;ckag THE BEE: OMAHA, ect from His Wife?. “The LOU@-K?ZOt” time & man s old encugh te marr he Is preity well established in his tastes and babits, and he does not marry to get a guide and mentor who will revise his entire plan of 1ife A man who hud had® the intelligence to succeed in a profession or ho'd down a job that pays enough salary for him to afford to nssume the luxury of n wife may be fairly supposed to know enough to come In out of the rain, what to eat and, generally speaking, how to take care of himself.

Older hooks Jeall & “Bulimy,” modern scientitie works | wpell it as “Bulim'a,” and the word comes | from Greek words for “ox* and "hunger.” If “Charlotte W.” 1s a vietim of ox- hunger, she wants to know what to “do or take."” Irreverent renders may whisper about graes and hay belng just the thing fer ‘her complaint, but the matter may be too serious for jesting. Bulimia is a symptom of Aisegse, not a disease in it | self. That means that bulimia may oo {eur fn a number of diseases, ard that other symptoms must be found (mors clues) to narrow suspiclon down to such o fine peint that the real source of her excessive appetite may be identified, Doss 4 | "Charlotte’s” lotter contain a hint of | other symptoms? | For one thing, I think it proves her body stronger than her mind~her muscles &re better than her nervous system, She confesses that though she has tried and tried she cannot overcoms this appetite even hread and tea can wreck her best resolves, But she always works hard #he is vigorous, but weak-willed. Then in one dip of her pen she declares life “not worth living,” and" with the next | ehe signa quite “hopetully.” Now, of the many diseases in which ! | you may find bulimia, one great group | of disoases includes such nervous ail | ments as hysteria, neurasthenia (nervous Cebility), epllepsy, brain tumors and in sanity. “Charlotte’s” letter is too alert | too concise for the last of thess; but I think it probable that her nerves may be | out of order. Bhe may be a little hys terical and debllitated. I only throw out the hint. Let her be good te her ner vous system, avolding excitement, alming live without worry, denying hersel! | ten and coftee In favor of cocom or milk &@Ing early to bed, perhaps having a oold bath or & cool sponge all over befors sha | dresses of @ morning, and in general 1y | Ing the simple life. And If in & menth |or thereabouts her appetite is still frre | | | to | sistible, T would strongly advise “Char | totte W."* to bring her case bafore a loca doctor. \Advice to Lovelorn By Beatrice Fairfax, Having baen in Tk two yoars and not hav had ve of mesting & young lad ared 1o §o out with more {har times, I am writing to yeu for : 1 am 20 years and have & good salar FoW In & city an large 88 New York ory hard for & stranger 1o ma However, it you wers t the " Men s Wan association ar & ws " Ag And proved self dignitied and « A aure they would | introd ' v oalaters and ¢ . > alhiet are [ ' P oape-for after & . a day—eug find his pleasantos \ . .
