Woodruff NMR ROR ETWEEN you and me—just what I think of the stingy husband would likely not be passed by the board of censors. If ever I felt ~ like outlawing the law it is in his direction, For the trouble of it is that no court can touch hinr in the ordi- nary family. I am speaking of the what - did-you-do- with - the - last - nickel-I-gave-you - kind of husband, ‘His main sut- fering is the fear + of getting a generous impulse. And of all kinds of husbands the one that is most hated is the stingy kind. You can forgive even a spendthrift husband, because there Is some pleas- / |) ure derived from his spending. But the stingy man never draws anything to him but dislike. And if you have ever watched this variety of family man you will note that he expands his chest and con- Bi tracts his heart. He always has a great view of his importance in his home, and he usually thinks that but for him the world would stop going round. Of all the letters that come to me from the miserable wives the majority are inspired by the man who ins on stretching the dollar so far that it is forever threadbare—and so is family. { In most cases it is the man who | has money to spend who is the | greatest offender. Such a man only lives from the neck up. He hasn't any emotions, sympathy or sentiments. He solves everything by arithmetic, and if his brain could be opened it would be found to be filled full of figur Right before me is a long letter from a worn, tired little mother Whose husband was as. stingy as the man who raised the window to look out for fear he would wear out the pane of glass. He always strutted about prating to people what a great “provider’’ he was. Yes, he was a so-called provider— that is, he paid the rent and e grocer and for the necersities, but o THE CARE OF THE HANDS. HOUGH you take the best of Ee care of your face and hands, remember that the hands are a great indi€ator of the general health as well as being telltales of our characteristics. The temperature of the hand to a certain degree is indicative of the general health of its owner What I want to speak to you \ i about is the a Le 1 ed hand, 3.

The care of the hands does not consist only of polishing the nails; this is too often thought to be the only necessity for having a well-groomed hand, On the ‘contrary, even the graceful move- nent of the wrist can be an added charm, as the moved in expressive gestures. A sensitive, dry-skinned person will have to be very careful to avoid chapped hands.

The poor wife dreaded the days when the bills came in. She knew she would have a bad hour. And she was never dis- appointed. She rarely ever had a new dress, because every penny she could stcal from her meagre allowance she put on the children. And yet, mind you, she helped to make his Uttle pile— every cent of it. They ‘%egan on a farm and she worked very hard from early dawn until late at night, and when they came to the city she did her best to keep expenses down, looking for- ward to the duy when she could have a little to spend. But in ‘this particular case the worm turned, or rather the little worms did. As soon as the oldest boy and girk were old enough to make their own way they left home. They couldn't stand their stingy father any longer. It grieved the mother sorely to have them go, but she realized the strain that was put on them by the lord of the house and his everlasting nag- ging. Vor that is what a stingy hus- band does best of all—nag, nag, nag. These two young people decided on a plan of action. They would work hard and get their mother away, and the youngest child as well. That is what they finally accomplished. Somehow the Lord was good to them and made it possible for them to make a home for their mother nd younger sister. Stingy “Scrooge’’ woke up on a Christmas morning to find himself alone with his bank book and his empty hearth. And tic reason of the little woman's present letter to me ig that after three years this man begs her to come home and she seeks my advice. puelt if she would accept my advices 1fwould say: “Not on your life!’ Don't go back to him until he is ready to “talk turkey?’ and is willing to take up his married lite as he should have begun it—on a fifty-fifty basis. I would like to talk to this husband something like this: ‘What right have.you to expect love and sweetness and appreciation when your whole make-up is one of misery to every- body You take the joy out of life by withholding the joy that belongs to your family. You pile up—for what? You measure everything from the standard of money, and that is all you get in return “Do you forget that you are living ——$___ cised so that you do not injure the delicate cuticle. Dryiag the han properly affords a wonderful oppor- tunity for pushing the nails in place, for moulding the hands into more hedutiful lines, and the tips of the fingers can be gently fpinched into place, giving the hand a much more artistic effect.

Any family will hearken to the father in time of distress when a per- lod of saving must be endured. But the husband who is continually preaching ‘‘save’’ just builds for him- self a monument of ‘hate. He is al- ways on the wrong en@ of the horse- shoe and nobody is ever drawn to him. . And what does he have in return for. it? Only that he is lording it over everybody by his stinginess.
