Confessions of a Bride , "Good men revere their mothers as a matter of course, but Mother Lorimer deserves the devotion of her boys more than any mother I know,” thought I as I watched the A Wife Can Keep Her the little group Husband’s Opinion of of which the Women High and Fine. mother was the center. ‘‘Lately It has been the fashion to talk a great deal about mothers and It certainly has been a good fashion, but I sometimes think we are in a fair way to forget how important and wonderful a wife may be. I do not mean as a baker of bisc its —though that is very important.’* A wife fixes a man's standards of womanhood, it seemed to me. If she is brave and unselfish, a husband will decide that all women are self-sacrificing and courageous. If she is fickle and hysterical and lazy, so a man will imagine the rest of her sex to be. Perhaps in no other way is a wife so powerful for good as in her ability to keep her husband’s opinion of all women ■high and fine. A wife is just as powerful for evil if she permits a man to believe that women, at their best, are inferior to men. “The average woman,” says Havelock Ellis, "is about as competent as the average man." This has been proved by the record* made in war work, it is ■ft*. Isn't it the average wife’s duty to convince a husband of this fact? Not by words bnt by deeds. I, for one, have decided to have done with adventure and excitement. T am going to settle down, and “stay put” in my own home. I am going to try to make it a real home for Bob. Long ago I concluded that my Boh is a Ido per cent husband and that I would better try to keep him so. Never did a brand new bride look for‘wsrd to housekeeping with better Intentions than I upon our feturn from Mexico. Bob was facing a huge task, in ease no trace wrs ever found of onr dear daddy. He would have te be saved all annoyances about his home. I resolved to make it my Joy ns well as my duty to see that no petty home affairs were permitted to irritate him. Now that we were to begin housekeeping again, I resolved upon anew role. 1 had started out the first time with the idea that I could be Bob’s pal and eh iim. The scheme hadn’t worked very well. Bob treated me less tenderly than I desired. I missed the repeated caress that my heart craved. I was too much my husband’s equal In authority. Being capable In my vocation as a homemaker did not necessarily make me dislike to bo kirsed. So I decided to assume all tho familiar responsibilities and carry them effectively, hut T would cling—like the weakest of women, T would lean, T would droop, I wonld depend 1 And see bow It all turned out! As T rnedjtated thus In my room In the great T.-orimer mansion on the day Bob and _ .Tim were to depart for Sonth America. T felt a ripple or. noise and a thrill of excitement spreading over the Inmates. I rushed to mother's sitting room, knowing that the excitement would he concentrated there. “A wire—from a small port in Sonth America,” shonted Bob. ‘‘He’s alive! The telegram Is In Spanish, so It must be n small town.” Then Bob translated the story: The “lone” had been overturned in the high seas, bnt she did not sink. After floating two days, daddy and Archer and all the men but the superstitions valet bad been taken from the wreck by a nondescript freighter. Bob stopped as If he difficulties of translation bothered him. “By George!” be exclaimed. "The boat was owned by Hamilton Certels and he was aboard her. Also Don Manuel! Can yon beat it!" The wire ended with the statement that daddy couldn’t tell When or how he could get home. He bad tried to buy the hoat, but Certeis wouldn't, sell. Daddy promised to explain by/letter. Tn the midst of the tremendous rejoldng over this news, Bob came to me and whispered: “Get it, .Tane? Certels and Don Manuel are keeping ont of sight. That’s why we had no report from that ship. And that’s why dad can't get home!” “Look* as If our daddy might be playing that he’s a pirate bold before long.” T Md with a gay laugh. Bob joined me heartily. Tt was good to be able f 0 laugh together again.—Copy right, I’l’.’o. fTo be Continued A

EDII ADVENTURE’S It -1 . MZfi OF=- THE: TWINS VyA .by Olive Roberiy Barton EfltLrfisill ONCE-UPON TOWN. WHISK! The magic green shoes just lifted Nancy and Nick out of Peach Can Town like little light feathers and set them down gently in another town called Once-Upon Town. Os course it, too, was in the Land o’ Lost Things. They were determined to stay a while or two whiles or maybe three, just to be sure their monkey wasn’t there. Now the things in Once-Upon Town were unusual, because they didn’t need houses. They were the houses! Take a book and spread its covers out like a tent and let the leaves hang down. There! That hook doesn’t need a house, does It? —it IS a house. * That’s the way in Once-Upon Town, where all the lost books lived. They just spread out their covers like tents —whole streets of ’em. The lost book* In Once-Upon Town Just spread out their covers like tents—whole streets of ’em. And now—you’ll never believe this. I'm sure—the pictures in the books were out playing and the twins recognized a lot of them right away. There was Hi-Diddle-Dumpling-John with one shoe off, hopping all around. Mother Goose was calling him back. “John, come here or you’ll catch cold. That’s the way with you, you shiftless boy. You go to bed in your stockings and then run ail over the streets with one shoe off. Come here at once.” John hung his head after such a scolding and crept back under the book covers where he belonged. Nancy and Nick felt sorry for him. but the magical mushroom said it was a good thing. Asa rule books knew more than people, anyway. And it seemed that the mushroom was right, for many of the Mother Goose people were misbehaving. Tom Tucker was screaming that he was hungry. Tom, the Piper’s Son, was pushing rudely, and his pig was squealing, too. Mother Goose was very busy!—Copyright, 1920.

Black and White; Ifs for the Dance By CORA MOORE, \K\V YORK, March 8.-It Is remarkable how popular black and white effects are despite the bewilderment of color schemes one sees. Recently at a fashionable rendezvous of the dance-mad, I saw the gown of the sketch. Its material was satin. The skirt was narrow, perfectly plain and lifted some two or thiee Inches higher on one side than on the other to permit freedom of movement. The corsage was a little Dutch affair with a slightly pointed waist and a piping of white satin let In between the sleeve-ruffles and sleeves and between the corsage and a fold of the black satin that finished the neck. From underneath the corsage flared an apron tnnlc faced with emerald green.
