What Is a Model Husband?
Pear Cynthia-To settle a contro

"ethical column what qualifications a
young man should have- tc make a model
husband ? THOMAS A.
Ad nearly every woman, haw a differ
ent ideal for the model husband, it
would bo dlDlcult to stittlo tho contro
versy. TJie general qualifications on
which all would agree are. usually that
be remain tho lover after marriage, that
lie bo upright, honorable, straightfor

his affaira and expenses with her and
net leave his wife in Ignorance of their
financial status, That he give her a rea
sonable allowance for housekeeping and
personal wanis. And them are lots of
other qualifications a sensa of humor
among them, Cynthia Invito the read
ers to write lu what their Ideas of a
model husband would be.
Men Are, Fickle!
Dear Cynthia After reading "J
C. B.'a" criticism cf your wonderful ad
vice I cannot refrain. from writing and
commenting on hla remark, "Women
usually start tilings going. God made
nine out ,of ten so willful and change
able that nine out of ten ulnble men
must suffer." How can ho say such i

Tt Ib alwnya foolish to enter Into these

excuse for vulgar familiarity and Is

ITS BECOMING
AND'lfiS COOL, TOO
The foundation, is chiffon, and with
while net over It. Laco (rims tho
IIHIe coatee, and a French rose
right In tho middle of tho waistllno
Is' tho. only 'touch of color m mo
whole negligee. Bu!; Ihcro are lols
of roses on tho cap worn with it
A Dally Fashion Talk by Florence Hose
rpHK tt'it of a successful negligco is
pre-eminently whether or not It is
becoming.
For a dinner or n dance', when you
kuow thnt ypu and the dress you wear
will be lined up, as it were,, with otber
women and other drcseSv'ou naturally
select a gown that is distinguished, pos
sibly striking, as well os becoming. You
might wear tho most becoming gown iu
the world, but if you sat or stood next
to n woman with a great deal of distinc
tion you would pass quite unnoticed.
But with your negligees it is different,
for in your own home ypu reign su
preme. You need not even worry your
splf very much over the most recent
mode.
Then, too, nt this time of the year
remember that the negligee should be cool
nnd comfortnblc. In he sketch today
is a ucgligec that combines all these
traits for it is of the sort that li
becoming to nine women out of ten. It
is made ofwhite nejt on a foundation
of chiffon. The little coatee is trimmed
with lace nnd two tnsfels at tho front.
Quaintly placed right in the front of the
high waistline is a small French1 rose
the only touch of color in the dainty
little carment.
The little nightcap designed to wear
with this negligee, however, is lavishly
trimmed with French roses, it is sug
gestive of a Russian turban in shape
which, by the way, seems equally popu
lar for bridal headdresses and night
caps. (Copyrliht. IDrO. bV Florence Hoi.)

Not lone after that Ida's engage

Minnie called her up pn the telephone.
"Well. I suppose uertrude's Satis

"I really dou't know," Ida replied,
"I haven't planned bo far .ahead as that

"But you will, of course,' insisted
Minnie. "You and 'she' nre'.BUch good
