He compared her to a runabout car, filtting here and there, which finally found it- self in front of the divorce courts, For the break eventually came. “She just got the habit” he told me, “of everlastingly running out. She was never at home, Even in | the morning she would run over ‘to her friend's porch so that | they could sew together. And then It | was afterneon card parties which kept her late, YVirst they came but once a week, and then twice a week, and “then it got to be every day. “She wotld come home with a fool- ish bauble—the prize—and- that seemed more important than our hap- Diness."” And much of what this man said ts true. This woman was just like a little high-geared machine. The min- ute some one called her on the tele- phone she was as a self-starter, and off she went on pleasure bent. Her way rarely led her home in time to take care of her husband. And she ever knew when to put the brake on herself and call a halt. for it, but after a while their words waxed warm and thé mountain loomed up soon—a mountain, of woe. - And strange to say, now tuat they are separated, this woman no longer cares for th. runabout existenze. She is at home with het parents but truly loves and longs for the man she married. I believe she has learned her les- ‘bon and there may be a reconciliation. Re. her, marriage meant freedom— TPeedom to go and go, and go some more. * And now that there is no one to Quarrel with about it she has lost her keen desire for it. ‘Women's perver- sity." some will say. But it is not exactly that. There are hundreds of women like this one who, having married a good Man, a good provider, do hot seem to ‘care how much i:.ey try his patience. They go on the theory that the marriage tie is unbreakable and that they can hold the man’s love which ‘they once have secured, forever and ‘ever. 1f only women would realize thing to win many a shattering of home and happiness would be avoid.d. The trouble with most married peo- ple is that they presume too much on ‘their so-called ‘rights.’ After all, all the chains of law can- not sécure continued confidence, a} preciation and understanding. This is a day-by-day proposition. Just as constant dropping will wear away a stone, some trifling thing will wear the heart out and the love with It. You can't hold a man with a mar- riage certificate. It has been tried too often, but without suce The people who think they ho the problem on a “you-go-your-way- and-I-go-mine"’ basis have just en- tered into a problem that can’t be solved that way, because It does not take into consideration the human - equation, which is the only one that ‘works out. I know of another woman—a run- ‘ about wife—who did even worse than im the case just mentioned. She in- sisted on her husband doing the same thing. He was a home-loving man and married her for the prime purpose of having all the joys of home life. |. He began right off to make the home as comfortable and as attractive ‘ag he could and seemed to take great “pains {n doing it. For years he had longed for the nicely shaded Iamp and the big armchatr where he could read , and seek repose, and had a vision of hie wife sitting opposite embroidering, and thus enjoying compantonship. Having been a bachelor for a long time, he was*always out because he did not like to be alone, and marriage to him meant the realization of his dreams, But it was not to be, The lady he had chosen had leanings tn another «direction. She wanted to be out all the time, flitting here and there, but she did not want to go alone. So she dragged him about everywhere till finally she wore out his patience, At first he did not mind once or twice a week, but it finally reached the point where he never had/an eve.

In fact, she wanted to run about even in her own home, and these two also separated. No, it can’t be done. There is a happy medium. Married people must adjust their lives in a give-and-take manner. Neither one oan presume too much on the other's likes and dis- likes, Real homes are resting places and not merely places in which to sleep a few hours, Runabout wives learn sooner’ or later that their steering gear which leads them away from their husbands will get altogether wrong some day and then the crash comes.

It seems a strange thing regarding this particular malady that in these times, when so much Is being said on hygiene and sanitation, qa disease depending on uncleanliness primarily, should be Pecullar to our epoch; for typhoid fever is the febrile (feverish) affec- tion par excellence of our times—as typhus fever was 300 years previous to the nineteenth century, and the Plague was that of the Middle Ages, Typhoid fever has to do with faulty Copyright, 1922 (New York Evening World), by Press Publishing Co. REEN VEGETABLES are be- coming more plentiful and should be included in each day's dinner, It has been estimated that a normal adult should consume at least one pound of fruit or vege- lables daily, The market at present ts offering a choice between cauliflower, spinach and green beans, Selection. In buying cauliflower select a firm, white head with fresh, green leaves. Bright, shiny leaves are no indication that spinach is fresh, If you select that with fresh, dirty leaves you will be sure you are not getting a revived vegetable. In buying string beans break a pod, If it Is brittle and the bean ls very small you will know it is fresh, Preparation. Remove the large green leaves from cauliflower and leave just enough stalk to hold the head together, Put it, head downward, into a pan of cold water to which one-half teaspoonful each of vinegar and salt has beon edded to each quart of water, This will remove any possible insects. It ehould soak about an hour, Cut roots off the spinach, break leaves apart and put into pan of co'd water. When thorough!y rinsed put {nto another dish of water, Continue this until there {# not a particle of sand at bottom of pan, If leaves have become wilted let spinach stand In cold water until fresh and ortap, If you do not get the stringless beans, carefully remove strings and cut into desired lengths. The beans we are now getting from the South aie more or less wilted, so after cut- ting them soak in cold water about twelve hours, Cooking. Drain caulifiower, put Into sauce- pan, head upward, and cover well with boiling water. Add salt and boil gently with cover partially off. Never cook cauliflower more than thirty minutes, A small or loose head will require no more than twenty or twenty-five minutes. Drain spinach and put into saucepan with bolling water, Half a peck of spinach will require two quarts of water and one tablespoonful of salt, Cook ten min~ utes after it begins to boll. As soon as it boils remove cover. After ten minutes pour spinach into colander, ‘When hot water has drained through pour cold water over. When well drained mince as desired and let stand until ready to prepare for table, Green beans, Ike spinach, should be blanched, Drain them from the cold water and put them into rapidly boiling water, allowing one teaspoon- ful salt to two quarts water, Boll twenty minutes, having water boiling hard all the time and the cover of @aucepan partially removed. Drain io colander, then pour cold water over them, Both the spinuch and beans can be prepared to this point In the morning and finished in whatever manner desired for dinner when ready to prepare this meal, The water in which vegetables are cooked contains valuable mineral matter and should be ised for soups ag gravies, p drainage, coataminated waters and milk; at least it is through these means that the bacillus typhosus usu- ally gains access to the human. all- mentary canal, and for a great many years after the true nature of the dis- ease was known these were thought the only means of communication, Typhoid fever may occur at any season of the year, and while it pre- valls in all parte of the world, it prefers temperate climates. The bacillus typhosus has a special predi- lection for young people—it is during the beautiful years of youth—15 to 26 —that the greatest number of cases | are seen, In these distressing times, when the emotional stress under which young people are living 1s a tremendous strain upon the nervous system, we must give more than or- dinary attention to the possibility of An encounter with typhoid fever.

The Jarr Family By Roy L. McCardell Copyright, 1922 (New York Evening World), by Press Publishing Co. UT Mr. Jur was not to be bat- fled in his quest for Mrs. Jarr’s hat, which she had left to have & new fangy put on, In the ladies’ trimmed hats department of the Big Bargain Bazaar. He had been shoved up in the ele- vator and on to various ‘floors and down into the basement and out tnto the street, but he returned gallantly to the charge. It was near closing time at the big department store, and Mr. Jarr knew that if he did nog come home with his wife's hat, as he had promised to, pring cleaning that had wrecked his domicile and kept Mrs. Jarr in- doors, adorned with a house wrapper and a dust cap on her head, plying broom, scrub and paint brush, she would keep up the chaos of renova- tion indefinitely to punish him. So once more he entered the store, dodging the mass play formation of the shopping women coming out, and again the double-breasted aisle su- perintendent nailed him and held him with his glittering eye. At least, Mr. Jarr sald afterward that it wi aisle superintendent's glittering but perhaps It was his gardenia bou- tonniere, or double watch chain, that glittered. ; “Have you been waited on?’ in- quired the aisle superintendent sweetly. “T am looking for the ladies’ hats,"* sald Mr, Jarr, and just then he was poked in the eyes by two ladies’ trim- med hats, worn by two departing and acidulous shoppers, who gave him such @ look for getting their hats in his eyes, Laying @ gentle but detaining clasp upon Mr. Jarr’s arm, the aisle super- intendent raised aloft his other well- manicured hand, in which he held a gold penell, and at th superintendent Post some distance away and came forward and took Mr. Jarr into captivity at command of the fret or main aisle superintendent, “Show this gentleman to the ladies" trimmed hats department, Mr. Hank- inson,"* said the Mrst aisle superin- tendent, “Certainly,” reptied the other, “T will see he is eatiafactorily served, We will have our Mise Dillwerthy, our Paris buyer, who is in charge of the trimmed hats, wait upon him person- aily, Hor taste in hats is exquis he Now confided to Mr, Jarr, "an here his voles sank to an awed whis- per, “phe goes to Paris three times a year,”* In a. quiet part of the store where, it being near closing time, only some forty or fifty women customers were still waiting, they found Miss Dill- worthy, the omnipotent, who went to Paris three times a year. “This gentleman desires, hat for his good lady, Miss Dillworthy, if you please,’* said Mr. Jarr’s captor, as he stood by to block any attempt Mr, Jarr might make to escape, and he motioned the victim to a gilt chair before the only unobstructed mirror in the department. For @ few shuddering, horrid mo- ments Mr. Jarr imagined they were going to try ladies’ hats on him. He endeavored to explain that he only wanted to get a hat that had been trimmed there, or something, for his wife, but the truth was that he had forgotten just what errand he had been sent upon, and he sald nothing, as Miss Diltworthy approached him, bearing with her a Turkish turban of blue and gold with an aigrette and Jewel crescent decorating it. But Mr. Jarr was spared the {gno- miny of having this ornate contrap- tion placed upon his head. “Is she a petite blonde or is she a brunette of full figure?’ asked the Paris-going Mise Dillworthy. ‘Now you are of the dark type, and I should say that the lady was a blonde, ahem! and a perfect thirty-six." “A thirty-eight, I should sa} murmured the assistant alsle superin- tendent. “No, a thirty-eight would do her own shopping,” said the saleswoman. And she proceded to sell Mr. Jarr the turban, and when he took it home Mrs. Jarr said it was just what she wanted and that he was @ perfect dear. But the turban was that, as it cost sixty dollars.
