How I Lost My Husband
Hy DOROTHY DIX.
"1 lost my husband.'' said the
tenth woman, "because I didn't keep
up with the procession.
"When 1 look back upon my life
with the clear perspective that the
j ears give. 1 can see that one of the
chief attractions that marriage held
for me was '.he prospect of letting
myself go. of slumping down mentally
and physically. . I
"In my ignorance I thought of mar
riage as the end of a woman's strug
gle to interest and fascinate a man.
instead of its being the beginning, as
1 know it is. I thought that a
woman, having won a man's heart
and married him. could settle down
in peace and comfort to enjoy her vic
tory. I have found out that a man's
fancy is a revolting garrison that has
to be recaptured every' day, and that
it is ten thousand times more difficult
to regain it. once lost, than it was
to capture it at the beginning.
"Frankly. I am of a lazy, easy go
ing. comfort-loving disposition. I like
good things to eat and drink. I adore
negligees. I am fond of reading the
six best sellers, and my idea of a per
fectly happy state of existence would
be a life which you spent among a
few old friends who took you as you
were and for whom you didn't have to
make the slightest effort, where you
could wear your old clothes and be
comfortable without regard to style,
and eat all you liked without even a
qualm as to how fat it would make
you.
"These were the dolce far niente
views of life that 1 began to put into
operation as soon as we were mar
ried. and by the time I found out that
matrimony is the most strenuous
profession that a woman can possibly
follow, and the one that requires her
to be most on the job, I had wrecked
my happiness. My dearly bought
knowledge came too late.
Her First Mistake.
"The first mistake that T made was
in thinking that matrimony gives a
woman the right to wear wrappers,
and be as ugly as nature made her.
It was so comfortable not to have to
torture my straight hair into curls,
nor to touch up iny complexion, nor
to be girded up into stiff straight
fronts any more that before I real
ised it 1 had gotten to he not exactly
a sloven, but one of the women who
seem to be always overflowing their
clothes.
"I got fat and frowsy and lost my
good looks, as any woman does who
neglects her personal appearance.
But it didn't seem to me that it mat
tered—l was married and I idiotically
supposed that no matter how ugly I
let myself become I would always be
a tearing beauty in my husband's
eves.
"1 should have been warned, for
one day, not very long after we were
married, he tossed a roll of bills into
my lap and said: "For heaven sakes

or laces, or whatever it is that women

You look like a oook and you are
getting scandalously fat. Why don't
you play golf or do something to
keep your figure?'
"I laughed and thought it a good
Joke for & man to be so fussy about
women's clothes, but there onme

doll of a woman, when I wondered it

"My husband wu an ambitious
man. He made many acquaintances
among people who were important so
cially. financially and politically, and
he was keenly intent on making the
most of these friendships,
ill His Efforts Fall
"He wanted to accept their invita
tions. to go to their dinners, and coun
try houses, and what not, and to en
tertain them suitably in return, and
1 objected, because it required an
effort on my part to *et the proper
clothes, and to give smart entertain

dred quarrels over the matter, and at
last it resolved itself into his going
alone and mv staying at home. He
became a leader in a gay and brill
iant set. while I sank deeper and
deeper into the obscurity of a domes
ticity for which there was no excuse.
"And just as I let my body get fat
for want of exercise and through in
dulgence in too much eating, so I let
my mind get fat and heavy for want
of using it. My husband tried to get
me to join clubs and take an interest
in the great feminist movement, but
it required more energy than 1 pos
sessed to attend meetings and be on
committees, and worry myself about
the injustices and sorrows of human
ity.
"Tt was so much easier to shut my

mine and refused to see. My husband
also tried to Ret me to read books that

but I preferred the kind of novels

TARIFF RESPONSE
DOnDECLARES
President of Cambria Steel Com
pany Gives Reasons For Steel
Trade Depression
The tariff is held responsible by
William H. Donner, president of the
Cambria Steel Company, for the exist
ing depression in the iron and steel
business of the United State. The for
eign manufacturer, he declared, in his
annual report to stockholders, was
able to undersell in this dountry be
cause of higher-priced labor on this
side of the water, and, in addition, he
said, foreign laws permitted a closer
co-operation among the manufactur
ers in both domestic and export trade.
Sweeping condemnation was made
by Mr. Donner of freight discrimina
tion in favor of imported steel. He
said that as American workmen were
protected against importation of for
eign labor it was inconsistent not tc
protect them against the product of
foreign labor. Another handicap that
was held responsible for poor busi
ness in the steel trade was competi
tion on rails from Canada. Mr. Don
ner held that under the existing tariff
law, rails from foreign manufacturers
were admitted free in the United
States, whereas the Canadian tariff
tax on United States rails was 17.84
a gross ton. How the tariff domi
nated the steel trade by means of low
prices was succinctly set forth by Mr.
Donnor in these words:
"With most of the large steel plants
of Europe tied up on account of the
war. foreign competition is now vir
tually suspended; but .in the steel
trade contracts are made so far ahead
that It is almost impossible to secure
an advance in prices after they are
once lowered until there is evidence
of sufficient business to fill up the
mills. Xo one in the steel business
can tell just how seriously the pres
ent tariff will affect the manufactur
ers or their employes until it has been
tested under various conditions.
Those connected with the indujtry
muts bear the burden of this tariff
experimentation, while those without
employes to consider, or investments
to protect, have nothing to lose."
