MOTHER OF SCHOOL GIRL . Tells How Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Re- stored Her Daugh- ter’s Health, | Plover, lowa.—“From a small child’ By Marguerite Mooers Marshall. Bvery married man is a dicky dird, He may not know it, but that doesn’t mattef. His wife knows. She has him trained to eat the crumbs her dainty fingers scatter, to stay in his cage when shi @ thinks it best that he shouldn’t go out, to sing sweetly on request and to submit to pet’ ting. He is loved, he is cherished—but he is aleo dominated. Or such fs the firm conviction of Miss Harriet Ford, co-author of “The Dicky Bird,” that charming comedy of the suppressed husband. Personally, I think he’s at feast as common a “bird” as the op- pressed wife, to whose woes we have treated ad lbi- tum, if not ad nauseam. The dramatic dicky bird is perhaps qn extreme Indignantiy he relates the history of his bondage. His wife was a superlative embodiment of that “moth erinetinct” which, we are told, colors the love of all good women for the men they marry. She gave the orders to his tailor and selected his hats and neckties. She managed his bank account and doled out his spending money. She told him how to.vote. He had to sneak away whenever he wanted to go to churcli, because she be- longed to “one of those religions that basn't any church.” Likewise, he had to sneak to a ball game. He wanted to go to a musical comedy and she dragged him to Ibsen's “Doll's House.” However, he was glad of that, | in the end, for he suddenly discovered himself to be « pet squirrel, a dicky ‘t| bird, a male Nora; and, like Nora, he THE DICKY 1D AN AMERICAN INSTITUTION. “He was the victim of too much mothering,” explained Miss Ford. ‘Then she smilingly but firmly voiced her conviction, “| have never known an Ameri- can husband who was not domi- nated by his wife. It seems to me that every man is a dicky bird; every man is controlled in ene way or another by the wom- an he marries. The only differ- ence is that some women are clever enough to conceal “In the play, for example, thi bird's first wife used no subtle was the affectionate but obvious com- mander, She loved and ruled her husband as openly as if he were & son, The second wife, young and pretty and fluffy, makes the poor man “went out into the night.” who tyrannizes over him because she loves him?

That illustrates the difference in the two methods.” Mise Ford's black eyes sparkled and snapped, below the fringe of black hair which frames her plump, piquant face. She is evidently divided be- tween sympathy for the dicky bird and amused appreciation of his comic possibilities. For a moment sympathy was tho uppermost emotion, as she said seri- ously, “I do think it's too bad that there can't be mutual consideration in a home, don’t Pod ‘That is cer- tainly the ideal, but I myself have never seen it put in practice between husband ond wife, je atrul t dominance usually begins wit! of words before the hon any-| over, and in this country, .| be has chief authority.
