George, Novelist, to Give 5 Own Advice Third Trial Gives Rules for Happy Marriages in Six Maxims Which He Has Practiced—Successfully. By Marguerite Mooers Marshall.

L, George, brilliant British novelist, essayist, feminist nd man-who-understands-women, told New York last autumn. Six weeks later Mr. George was reawakened to the fact that the matrimonial insurance company sometimes cancels its policies, for his yot wife, who had accompanied him to this country, die The first Mrs, George had died in 1914. a brief illness. But when a wise man’s insurance polley lapses, what does he do? He promptly takes out another. There- fore many American friends of the wittiest propagandist of marriage are not surprised by the just published announcement that he is about to marry for the third time. The bride- to-be is described as a Yorkshire girl, Kathleen Geipel, a tennis player of note and a former employee of the Ministry of Munitions. The wedding probably will take place in time for the new Mrs. George to accompany ber husband when he pays his second visit to America this month. That “marriage is the right and natural state for all human beings” is @ creed which he evidently be- lieves in practising as well as preach-* ing. And it would be a pity for any- bedy who knows as much as Mr. George about managing marriage not to have the chance to practise his art, “Marriages,” he once told me, “do not fail for lack of love so often as fSr faulty technique. I put the rules for happy marriagé in six max- fme: “1, Do not open each other's letters. (For one reason, you might not like the contents). And try not to look liberal if you don't even glance at the address or the postmark. . “2, Vary your pursuits, your eonversation and your clothes, If required, vary your hair. “8. If you absolutely must be wincere, let it be in privat “4, (Especially for wives). Find e@ut on the honeymoon whether erying or swearing is the more effective, “5. Once a day say to a wife, ‘1 love you’; to a husband, ‘How strong you are!’ If the latter re- mark is ridiouloug say, ‘How lever you are!’ for everybody be- lieves that. “6. Forgive your partner seventy times seven. Then burn the ledger.” Mr, George assured me that he hed Practised these rules himself, and had found they worked. The very latest addition to his guidebook to matrimony may b2 found on the ylast pages of “Ursula ‘Trent,” his new novel just published by Harpe It is that almost uniq' experiment in fiction, a story by a male author, yet oste ly told by a woman from the first word to the Jast; and it sheds light on the reason why certain women hate Mr, George and all his worke—the women who think that no man has the right to know #0 much about them! £ I .hope, however, that “Ursula Trent” will be one of the novelist’s wedding gifts to Mrs. George, No. 3. For she will find in it shrewdly pei fect instruction in how to tame a hus- band. for instance: “Never do your husband out 6f @ row. The day when your hus- band comes back wanting a row, something's happened and he's been done out of his row. I saw a car- toon in the Bystander the other day of a coming home with a conjugal expression on his face and sayin; ‘lf she's gone to bed T'll go for her for not sitting up for me. And If she is sitting up for me I'll go for her for wasting the electric light.’ “Weep. They love it. They think tt serves you out, never mind for what, but it serves you out. After a little time, during which they rejoice in having administered just punishment, they become « magnanimous, You get kissed and*comforted. Next day, accord- ing to the exchequer, four rows of pearls or a penpy bunch of violets. “Never say you won't do it. Don't say ‘shai f rude. Say ‘Yes, dear'!. Then say the cook has given notice. Burst the boiler, or poison the dog, but do- not say ‘shan't.' That merely makes the situation impossible, “A 6 idea 1s to demand the thing er don't want. Then they'll force you to have your own way. Always pull a mule by the tall to make it go forward. “Always be in the wrong. It confirms your husband in the be- lief that he ia always in the right. They're all different, but all the same. If they're old bach- lors they want & little free time away from their wives, because they're used to it; if they're young bachelors, they want a little free time because they haven't had enough of it.

That your skin, gives a muddy ap- pearance must be due to the fact that your general circulation is poor, that you have not perfect digestion or you do not spend sufficient time in the open air. All of these things play a very important part In tbe general ap- pearance of the complexion. You will - find that the after-bath rubs are splendid for improving your circula- tion. In the morning, instead of ‘using the powder, try washing the face with oatmeal! followed by an ice rub, and you will be charmed with the results, Dear Mise Doscher: 1 am @ young woman about thirty ye old, and just under my eyes and from my cheek to the corner of my nose wrinkles are’ starting.
