And yet, as every patient Grisclda knows, this wicked flea husband is of two varieties, and the one discussed above is by, far the less deadly of the two. For the real bad wicked fica hus- band is the one who “tsn't there," not to escape some unwished-for con- dition at home but to seck some wished-for pleasures of his own. He is the positively wicked flea—the other is merely negatively wicked. This monster in human form that we now refer to is the brute who wants to run away becau he wants to sit in at a poker game or foregather with his fellows at the club or go to a tired wicked flea show, or call on a crony who has a new recipe. you; wed, and you wed alone."”” So, with an elaborate explanation to the wife, or with an airy, casual “Ta, ta; so long,” this wicked fea departs, to return only when he gets good and ready. Now this situation requires drastic treatment, but it is not hopeless—not if the wife has a spark of initiative. ingenuity or efficiency, Whatever the First, dress the part. You know the brute’s tastes. If he is the average sort, who likes only black and white, wear those. If he leans to sprigged muslin and blue ribons, affect that mode, If he's a connoisseur and knows what's what, humor him. Clothes may win the gume—don't neglect them Next, make allowance for him, and— insist that he make a big one to you. This will pay for the clothes.

Which would make her happier, a husband, home and children, or to achieve success in her own line? Peggy had reached this stage now. She had never been especially ambt- tious to shine as an expert typist or to be known as a clever business woman but, of course, any girl who handles a weekly pay envelope does feel a certain amount of independ- ence. When a girl has been in busi- ness for six months or a year she feels that marriage to her must be a matter ome of these girls still cling to thetr desks and help hubby rent an apart- ment and furnish it in “a way we never could have afforded if I had not held on to my envelope."
