The Diary of an Engaged Girl By Phyllis Phillips
Spent the morning shopping with Jack today. We bought the dining room furniture and had lots of fun doing it. Nothing stiff or staid about our little home. I can tell you. No. indeed. Five of the happiest looking Copenhagen blue chairs, with a table to match (painted, of course), and the very last word in modern furniture. What pleased me most about it was its resemblance to the furniture that I had so admired at Nessa Sloan's apartment. When we had finished picking out the table and chairs, we went nosing around until we found some of the quaintest old blue and orange silk curtains you ever did see, which I fell in love with a loud whoop-and which Jack bought on the spot. Next came fixings for the dear little living room, and we turned that into a riot of gray, silver and amber comfy, squatty seats, with low backs and huge cushions, and a chaise lounge that was a miracle of taste. I
must say Jack gave me uiy head and I enjoyed the sensation Never having had such a free hand before, it made me feel as though I was after ali ' doing something clever in getting married, for, after all, men did let their wives do as they liked. Not a single thing was overlooked on this, our last shopping tour, we finished up from cellar to garn-t. And by the time we had finished we were two very tired but happy young people. Jack proposed lunch, and off we went. During the course of our luncheon I told him about my wanting to have a studio of my own in town when we were married, for I'd have had it anyway! When we were all through Jack asked me if I'd like to join the crowd and go down to Coney Island on the boat, just for fun? Of course, I jumped at it, for I had done this but once in my life and remembered that it was well worth while. So in the beat of mid-day we wended our way down to the Battery and managed to squeeze ourselves through
the perspiring crowds and onto the upper deck. We had such a good time, the trip was coo and the Harbor looked so pretty, and as for the people! Well, most of them were lovers and their lassies I should say. They were all so frank about their love for each other, no posing such as the girls or my own particular circle are bo fond of doing, whether it be about love or the state of their last year's hat box. Happy, honest young people, these, out for a holiday, and tickled to death to be cool and with the men they loved. There was plenty of music, and dancing, and such dancing! Most of the girls made the society girls that I have watched on a dance floor look like rani-rods. Dear, rowdy, happy-go-lucky, proletarian Coney. When we finally arrived there we just followed the crowd and did all the loop-theloops and razzle-dazzles and whatnots that it had to offer two blase members of society, such as Jack and myself. Never have had such a young and care-free time for ages. We were totally unashamed of our looks and let
1 ourselves be spun around in tubs, j over painted and whirling waves, right
before the eyes of dozens of spectators. Even ate "hot dogs" which Jack said had gone up in price since his clay. They tasted mighty good to me. Now you see just how unnecessary motor cars and expensive costumes, etc., to real pleasure and ligut-hearted-ness. 1 do, anyhow. And we came back on the crowded, lover-invaded boat, not in a hired taxi! (To be continued.)

"NICE COMPLIMENT" CUM MINGS SAN FRANCISCO, Cal.. June 30. When Homer S. Cummings. national chairman was told that there was much talk of him as a probability in the event of a deadock, he said: "Oh, yes, I have heard it. It is a nice compliment"
Dear Mrs Thompson: I am a married woman and have been married for 16 years J have several children, one almost grown My husband, I believe, is living untrue to me I hare been told he is in the company of others. This he stoutly denies and gets angry and threatens to do all kinds of bad things when I get after him about it. I know he is with company I don't like and he will come straight home and tell me a lie. He threatens to leave me and it almost breaks my heart, as I want our home to be happy. I love my husband dearly, and keep our home nice and clean. I work very hard at home for I have everything to see after and he doesn't take any interest any more He is away a lot of nights and stays
late. He tells me it is business when i
I have reasons to think it is not. Why does he lie to me when the truth would be so much better? We have a dear little baby in our home and when I get after him for the way he is living he tells me if it were not for our baby he would
leave me. Do you think it is best!
for me to let him go on the way he does and not say anything to him? He is fine-looking, and I believe he loves to flirt and make love
Do you think he gains anything by treating me so when he knows I am true to him and always have been? He tells me he has the. greatest confidence in me I stay at home most of the time, as I am always busy. He doesn't take me any place. Do you
think he doesn't want to be seen with me? He doesn't take any interest in our children and he never spends a Sunday at home with us. Do you think there is somebody he loves better? He doesn't drink, ut he is wicked. Is there anything I can do to make our home happy? He has been seen several times in the picture show with this person, but he swears to me it is not so. Why will he keep secrets from me and tell me lies? Please tell me how I can win back his love if he is losing it. I want to be treated as a wife ought to be. I am always thinking about
what makes my husband treat me so. 1 I know I am good to him except when I get after him about the way he does. A WORRIED AND TROUBLED WIFE. Every man would like to have hi3 wife for his sweetheart, but in many cases something stands in the way. Usually when there is trouble it is caused because the husband and wife have not congenial tastes. Often it is because the wife tries to be a mother or a guardian Sometimes the wife refuses to give the love which he learns to find elsewhere, or else she lavishes it at the wrong time. I believe you have forgotten to be your husband's sweetheart and try too hard to be his guardian. By all means stop questioning him about his conduct away from home. If he lies, he has a conscience to reprimand him for doing so, and he will feel more sorry if he finds you silent He does not dare tell you the truth because ha
thinks you will be critical and unsympathetic. How about your method of dressing? Do you give it a fair proportion of your thought, or do you spend all your time in keeping up the house and the children? Have you made the mistake most wives do of dressing too old for your years? Or are you asinterested in you appearance as you were before your marriage. Don't b-? afraid to look your very best. If your husband is ashamed to take you places, as you suggest, it is because you do not make a good appearance. I am sure that he would gladly pay for any clothes he admires. Do not stay at home so much. Go somewhere once a week if you have to slight your work to do so. Your oldest child should be able to look after the other children while you are away. I think it -would do you good to go to the picture show at night, too. Picture shows do a lot of good pointing out mistakes in domestic life. Of course I realize that harm
is done, too. by unwholesome pictures. You have not lost your husband yet, and I don't believe you will if you question him less, love him more, and court him as you would a sweetheart.

There were some prethf long waifs for the Doctor in the horse-and-buggij daijs MAKE it easier to get around and you make healthier and happier communities. No one any longer questions the worth of the automobile or begrudges any legitimate expense connected with it. But millions of car owners are rebelling at the idea that running an automobile has got to mean waste. 11 Every now and then you hear a neighbor complain that "he doesn't seem to have much luck with tires." Send him to us. The minute a man begins to question the service his tires are giving him, he's ready to listen to reason. Our business is built on" the principle that tne only way to get better tire service is to get better tires to start with. That's why we have taken the representation for U. S. Tires. U. S. Tires have a reputation for quality. Built up through years of creating better tires. Such as the straight side automobile tire, the pneumatic truck tire. It is not by chance that U. S. Tires are made by the oldest and largest rubber concern in the world. We are proud to represent U. S. Tires in this community. U n it e d St at e s Ti
