Wife's First Obligation to Husband, Regardless of Her Parents’ Opinion BY MARTHA LEE WHEN a girl marries she must realize that her husband’s interests and affairs ought to be of primary importance to her. Her parents, much as she loves them, must be relegated to a secondary, though dear, position in the girl’s heart. The young wife owes it to her husband to start a household of their very own. It is not fair to their future happiness for a girl to cling to her parents after she has accepted the “posi-

tion” of being a wife. Every man wants to be the head of his family. When a man is forced to reside with his wife's family her father is, of course, the nominal head of the household. The young husband must stifle his own wishes about the way he likes to Jive. It is only right for the husband to declare himself and insist upon his wife accompanying him to a place of their own. If she does not, he can leave her and start his own home. If she refuses to join him, he has grounds for divorce on the charge of desertion. However, I think most young wives will realize that their happiness with their husbands means more than living at the parental rseidence, so this last resort of divorce can be avoided. Dear Miss Lee: I have been married on© month and two weeks. Before I married my wife, her father and mother acted mighty nice, but a little later on they started drinking and swearing. They kept me awake three nights a week until I couldn’t do my day’s work all right. I asked my wife to go to some rooms of our own with me. She said she would. I came home from work that night and told her to get ready, but she ©aid she would not go. I tried to kiss her, but she spit In my face. I wouldn’t stand for that so I packed mv clothes and left her. Do you think I was hasty in leaving her? I cannot get along with her parents and I have asked her to come with me and she won’t do it. Miss Lee, there is no reason for her to act that way for I am a good provider and am plenty good to her. I think her mother is tellinft her things about me that are not true. Should I divorce her or wait awhile? H. J. Dear H. J.: You are right in wanting to have a home of your own. It is difficult enough for a young couple to build a firm foundation for their future happiness without the gdded handicap of living with parents of the husband or the wife. Do not think of divorce for a while. Perhaps your wife will realize her mistake and come back to you. Remember, it is not entirely iier fault. Her parents are with her all day and they are influencing her against you. Try to see your wife and come to an agreement with her. Tell her how much you love her and how you are eager to make your marriage a success. I hope she will be sensible so that you will not have to admit the failure of your mar- , riage and divorce her. Dear Miss Lee: If a girl has been going with a young man lor over two years and was asked to accompany the boy's lamily, Including himself, on a week's vacation, who should pav the girl’s expenses? WONDERING BUNCH. Dear Wondering Bunch: The young man’s family will pay all her expenses such as railroad fare, meals and hotel bill. Ti e girl pays her own tips for personal service, her laundry bill and her little side expenditures for her own amusement, such as her matinee tickets or luncheons with girl friends. The girl may show her appreciation of the kindness of the boy’s family by inviting them to dinner at her home after they return or by sending a gift to the boy’s mother, with a little note of appreciation with it.

months she had been in such poor health that s,l ° could not stoop to put on her own shoes. Unable to do her work, unable to go out of doors or enjoy a friendly chat with her neighbors, life seemed dark indeed to Mrs.

Daugherty.

Then one day, a booklet was 1 it her front door. Idly she tur; .he pages. Soon she was reading vith quickened interest. The little oklet was filled with letters from Vomen in conditions similar to hers rho had found better health by tak* ng Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “I began taking the Vegetable Compound,” Mrs. Daugherty writes, ‘and after I took the third bottle, I :ound relief. lamon my eleventh >ottle and I don’t have that trouble iny more, and feel like a different voman. 1 recommend the Vegeable Compound to everyone I see vho has trouble like mine.

Delegates Selected by D.A.R. Delegates of the Caroline Scott Harrison chapter D. A. R. to the continental congress in Washington were elected at a chapter meeting Thursday at which Mayor L. Ert Slack was the speaker. The delegates are: Miss Caroline Thompson, Mrs. J. F. Edwards, Mrs. James L. Gavin, Mrs. Wilbur Johnson, Mrs. Clarence O. Robinson and Mrs. Thomas A. Wynne. The ten alternates named are: Mesdames Walter C. Marmon, S. E. Perkins, W. B. Rossetter, C. A. Edwards, James M. Ogden, Frank A. Hamilton, James H. Taylor, W. D. Long, Maurice Tennant and M. A. Ryan. Mrs. F, Ellis Hunter, regent, will be a delegate by virtue of her office. Mrs. James L. Gavin sang a number of old English songs, accompanied by Mrs. Dorothy Knight Greene. Tea was served following the program. ‘‘l resent the statement or attempted charge that I am making a political administration or building up a ploitical machine or even attempting to build the administration along political lines,” Mayor L. Ert Slack said, in his talk before the chapter. ‘‘On the contrary, I have looked for efficiency and loyalty in every instance and with some few exceptions the changes have been made entirely because of a lack of efficiency. “There are two important features with respect to being the mayor of Indianapolis at this particular time. Those two features are ‘ordinary’ and ‘extraordinary,’ and it would be supposed that the ordinary feature would be first in importance, but apparently the extraordinary feature is predominant. The ordinary features of being a mayor of this city would be to go ahead and transact the public business of the city in a proper manner, giving honest and careful consideration to every matter of public business. This is the thought that I had in entering upon the duties of mayor on Nov. 8 last. “It would seem, after nearly three months of operation ’.hat the predominant business of the mayor of this city now is to give almost entire attention to the extraordinaryfeatures rather than the ordinary ones. I trust the citizens of Indianapolis fully realize that in no way have I brought about any of these extraordinary matters. On the contrary, the entire trouble is due to conditions existing long before it ever occurred to any person that I would become mayor of this city. Neither have these conditions been aggravated by anything that -I have done as mayor, and I say this positively.”

BEAUTY HOW and WHY a a a THE UNPRETTY EYE MAY BE LOVELY

By ANN ALYSIS The eyes hsve IT. Os all the features we possess, they have figured mere than all the others in song and story. There are many points by which beauty of eye may be estimated, such as color, size, shape and expression. There is no exacting standard. Eyes may lack every other beauty point, and yet may be adjudged lovely on account of their expression. That expression may be one of many or their charm may lie in their very changeability. Some eyes are frank, other sphinx fike. Some express joyousness, keenness, sadness or mirth. Still others sparkle with life and vivacity, while others are languorous. All types have admirers. An eye, which in expression, color and shape harmonizes with the other features and the general facial contour, may be considered beautiful. On the other band, an eye, beautiful in itself, may be so out of harmony with the rest of the features as to be startling in its effect on the beholder. We have emphasized the law of harmony as of the greatest importance in deciding as to what is real beauty. This holds good for the eyes, too, when shape and size are the points in question. But not always as to color. Contrast, even amazing contrast to the general coloring, often heightens the charm and emphasizes the personality of the fortunate possessor. Banquet at Marion The annual banquet of the Marion branch of the American Association of University Women will be held Wednesday at the Spencer Hotel there.

Piiris Approves Simplicity for Summer Wear Ifni ni!<,l rnxH PARIS, Feb. 3.—Parisian dressmakers, learning which way the mcney blows, have decreed simple styles for summer attire on the theory that American women are not interested in frills. Most of the designers long since have worked with the American market in mind. That is why the current trends depict little change. The gowns are about the same length and the belt line is still rather low and not apparent. Silks will be popular for summer wear, mostly in pastel shades with green and blue favored. One of the novelties to attract American buyers is hand-painted silk, the designs drawn by pen or fine brush. Science has come to'the aid of buyers who now frequently take photographs to the showing. A picture is sent to London by airplane and then wirelessed by the telephoto process to New York. The buyer meanwhile cables a description. Experts in New York can copy the dress within two hours, so that if such speed were essential, a dress draped on a Paris Mannikin for the morning parade could be duplicated and worn to a Park Ave. tea the same afternoon.

S. Ingram of Lexington, Ky. “I did not seem to get any strength. I couldn’t do my work. “The least noise and confusion just made m so nervous I would cry. I felt like screaming. I was depressed and fell off until I didn’t weigh but ninety pounds. “I was tired all the time. “1 read of Cardui and thought maybe it would help me, or quiet my nerves. I began taking it and it did help me. I kept it up and can say that I have never found a better or more he pful tonic. .1 was better than in a long time. I gained in weight and now I feel just fine.

Clubs Told of Therapy at Hospital “The real aim of occupational therapy is to help the patients, rather than make beautiful articles,” Miss Bess Sutton, director of the work at the Indiana Hospital for the Insane, told members of the Magazine and Present Day clubs at a special meeting with' Mrs. Robert T. Ramsey, 5726 Central Ave., this afternoon. “The work at the Central hospital is entirely under prescription,” Miss Sutton said. “It is prescribed by doctors and used for medicine. We have the best equipped department in the country and serve 150 women and 100 men.” Miss Sutton spoke of occupational therapy work in general and of its use in various types of hospitals. Mrs. Ramsey, president of the Present-Day Club, was assisted in presiding by Mrs. W. H. Rhodehamel, president of the Magazine Club. Following the talk, tea was served.
