Why "My Wife Left Me
By DOROTHY 1)IX.
"I lost my wife," said the third man,
"through sheer carelessness, just as
a heedless boy might lose a precious
Jewel with whose care he had been
entrusted.
"When I married I did not realize
that, to u great extent, a husband be
comes his wife's keeper, and that he
is as responsible for her happiness
und for her moral well being as he Is
for her food and clothes. We talk a
Jot about a wife's inlluence over her
husband. Believe me, it is as noth
ing to a husband's influence over his
wife.
"We men arc older than our wives.
We have had more experience of the
world. Our characters have been set
in the mould of life before we mar-,
ried, but our wives come to us little,
young, inexperienced, ignorant girls
that are putty in our hands, to bo
made into whatever we see fit, and—■
God forgive us for the bungling jobs
we turn out!
"I married as sweet and good a lit
tle girl as ever lived, and, like so
many other men who go from small
country towns to the city to seek
their fortunes. I found her "back
homo" when I returned to my native
village for a vacation one Summer.
"Ellen was one of the girls who are
typical of the American small towns,
a girl who is fresh as a rose and
frank as a boy, who has lived a life
absolutely untraniineled by conven
tions, because she lived In a commun
ity where everybody knew her and
her father and grandfather before
her, and no one misinterpreted any
act, but who. for all her audacity and
her own helief that she is worldly
wise. Is as ignorant of real- life as
a. baby. .
Also J'ond of Pleasure.
"Ellen was all of this, and she was:
also pleasure loving, full of high
spirits, and the central ligure in every,
party and dance and picnic and fes
tivity of any kind that occurred in th«j
little town.
"She had lived, you see, a life that
•was full of wholesome pleasures and
activities and companionship, and
without realizing its cruelties or its
dangers I transplanted her into the
Isolation and loneliness of a great
olty, where she knew no one but me,
had nothing to do, and no pleasures
except such as I could arrange for
her.
"At the best, this is a terrible ex
perience for any young woman. A
man who has no family connection in
H city never realizes how few people
he knows until he tries to arrange a
social circle for a woman. I wanted
Kllen to make friends, but I had no
friends whom I could Introduce to her
except men. X actually didn't know
but two women well enough to asjf
them to call on my wife, and they
were two staid old ladies who had
nothing In common with a young girl.
"Of course if I had realized then the
danger of the situation as X realize it

MONDAY EVENING,
now I should have moved heaven and
earth to have provided Ellen with
some companions* of her own ngre and
sex and some normal and healthful
occupation. But I didn't, X was ego
tistic enough to think that jUBt being
married to me was amusement and
c«re.-!i* enough I'or a lifetime for any
«nd thht when I was uvuy
l'roiii her she n.i:M wait no .other
pursuit more fascinating than con
templating my many charms and
viitues.
"So I introduced my men friends to
Ellen, and I watched with artless
pleasure their admiration of her
fresh young beauty and native man
ners, and we made up all sorts of
parties together and had a jolly good
iime
"I Ha-1 to Be Away." <
"Unfortunately my business re
quired my being away from home a
great deal, and so .is I was not will
ing to leave Ellen alone in an apart
ment, we lived in a hotel, where she
had absolutely nothing on earth to do
but -o kill time —in itself t'no most
hazardous of all pursuits to.* :i wo
man.
"Ellon grew extravagnnt because
she had nothing to do that was amus
ing but to shop, and nothing to think
about but enhancing he; - good iooky.
She became frivolous, because she
breathed nothing but an atmosphere
of frivolity. She inado acquaintance
v.'th t ihcr women £>lm.l'iv:y situated
a
nho was, and became a bridge (ion.},
and a frequenter of tho tea dances at
our own and other fashionable hotels.
■ Without her realUinj it, or mjr
knowing it, she was drawn into a.
sporty set of fast men and women,
the sort, of men who prey upon foolish
and vain woinon. and who find their
decadent amusement in home wreck
ing and the kind of women who are
always doing a hazardous balancing
act on the outer edge of respectability.
What chance had my poor little
country Kllen among these wolves of
society? Not so much as a lamb in
a den of ravenous wild beasts.
"And I wasn't there to protect her,
or even to warn her of her danger.
Worse still, I hart thrown her Into the
pit, and I have always held myself re
sponsible for what happened, for
there came a day when Ellen fled
away to misery and disgrace, with a
scoundrel who abandoned her as soon
as he had tired of her.
"That is how I lost my wife. I
lost her because I did not know how
to take care of her. I lost her because
I left her lonely for some other man
to entertain, because I did not pro
vide her with healthy interests and
amusements, because I did not guard
her from the temptations of a life
of which she was ignorant. Many
other men have lost their wives as I
lost mine. We leave our greatest
treasure unprotected, while wo look
up a fifty-dollar bond in a safety de
posit vault. Such is the folly of hu
manity."
WITH THE FASHIONABLE
SUSPENDER EFFECT
A pretty Little Frock that Show*
New Features.
By MAY MANTON
£442 Girl's Suspender Dress,
6 to 10 years.
Suspender effects are much liked this
season and wide belts or plain girdles are
new features, so that this frock is an
especially interesting one. The blouse is
made in the kimono style that means very
little labor and the plaited skirt is a per
fectly simple one joined to a deep yoke.
In the picture, light weight wool material
In shepherd 's-check is worn with a blouse
of white lawn but, since the blouse and
skirt are entirely separate, various com
binations can be made, although white
would be preferable for the blouse. In
place of the shepherd's check, washable
material such as linen or pique could be
used or a pretty, dainty little frock would
result from one of the flowered cotton
crapes for the skirt and suspenders with
white for the blouse. The sleeves may be
longer or shorter as liked.
For the 8 year size, the skirt with sus
penders will require 2V4 yds. of material
27. yds. yds. 44 In. wide and
the blouse ijj yds. 27 or 36, 14 yd- 44
in. wide.
The pattern 8442 is cut in sizes from 6
to 10 years. It will be mailed to any ad
dress by the Fashion Department of thia
paper, on receipt of ten centa.

YOU CANNOT AFFORD TO DO IT.
DEAR MISS FAIKFAX:
Am a young girl, twenty years, and
my position requires me to go on a
business errantl every day where
there are a great many young men
bookkeepers und clerks employed.
Often times I have to wait übout fif
teen or twenty minutes, and during
that time several of them have
started conversations. There is one
young man to whom I have taken a
liking, and would like to know if
there is any way in which I can ex
tend the friendship so that he will
not think I am forward.
L. V. S.
Make yourself as charming and
I agreeable as possible, but do not try
( to force one young man in particular
Ito extend you courtesies beyond the
pleasant greetings all the young men
you meet like to show you. After
■all, they are but doing the polite
thing by a girl who comes into their,
oftlce, and if any of them desires tn i
extend the acquaintances ha Willi
I make you aware of the fact.

Some Fashion Notes of
Interest to Women!
Sonit* of the new ruffs are combina
tions of fur and tulle. The high stam\- I
ing tulle ruching flares upward from I
a narrow fur collar that clasps snugly
around the throat.
Waists and gowns for afternoon and
street wear all have long sleeves. Long
sleeves of lace and tulle are smart
combinations with the silken bodices of
the afternoon frocks. The lingerie
gowns ull have long sheer sleeves.
Ostrich feathers are smart trimming
effects. Paradise and osprcy aigrettes j
are most fashionable, but as the latter
cannot be used for new milliner- in this I
country, horsehair imitations are being
. used in large quantities.
! Purple will be a favored color for
I late winter. Soft shades and wisteria,
las well as reddish purple, will all be'
I worn. The bright colors seem to be
ion the wane, and black and navy blue!
j are the leading colors for suits.
I Persian colors have passed out of
I style according to the latest fashion
i experts. The Persians will be suc
ceeded by plaids for trimming.
Proper Airing of a Bed
Important in Housekeeping
Many housekeepers think they air|
beds by throwing the bedclothes over'
the foot of he bed. and tho mattress
over them, but this is simply airing
the underside of the mattress and
smothering the bedclothes.
Some persons also think that to air
a bed properly it must lie this way
about half the day, giving a very un
tidy appearance to the room.
The proper way to air a bed. if
| bedclothes are not removed from the
bed and placed on chairs. Is to throw
them over the footboard across a
chair placed to keep them off the
floor and then lift the mattress in
the middle, tilting It up so that air
passes under and over it. One-half
hour of this will thoroughly air a bed,
the windows to be open all tho tlmo,
of course.
Air and sunshine are the best puri
fiers on the market, and they are also
tho cheapest. If sufficiently used they
are enough to meet the need of a
healthy family.
Air the closest*) and wardrobes just
as you do the room. They are full of
clothes that have been worn all day,
which need airing-
