10 3&fc>(Y)en r^UnTeß&s Men xind By BEATRICE FAIRFAX I am sure that knowing how to treat a husband Is far more Important than dancing or bridge, but not half so much Instruction is given on the sub ject! The flrst year of married life is—we are told—always a particularly diffi cult period to meet. It is part of a woman's "job" to make a success of her marriage. The man earns the wherewithal that makes marriage possible. His partner is his wife —the more successful his wife, the more aha Is his partner. And her end of the responsibility is not only to make the home—but to make the marriage Worthy the name. The very flrst thing that a suc cessful wife must remember is that It Is easier for a man to give way In big things than In little ones. If an Important decision is at stake and 6'ou talk it over wl|h him, he Is open to conviction and (if he is a gentle man) ready to make the sacrifice or concession once he is convinced of the rightfulness of so doing. But as for little things a man is not constructed to remember them. He does not feel or see the wrinkle In the lining of his shoe. A woman Bees the point in trifles and feels it. too. Just make up your mind to endure masculine carelessness in little mat ter »—to endure forgetting and not to make yourself miserable about it If the man you love does over and over again the particular trick that drives you nearly insane. He would not do it If he remembered. If he were another woman he could appreciate how you feel about it. But he must be to the end of life merely a man—and so he will never be able to comprehend that you mind or why you mind. In ninety-nine cases out of a hun dred. he will say with utter amaze ment each time the bone of conten tion appears on the family dinner table, "Why. dear, if 1 had known that It made any special difference to you whether I wore red ties or not. I never would have bought any but black CITY FARMING MONEY AND MEN THERE is a small group of men in Philadelphia, says Dr. Madison C. Peters in a recent article, who believe in the precedence of human rights over all property investiture, and for eighteen years Philadelphia, through its Vacant Lots Cultivation Association, has not only led in prac tical results, but has served as a source of inspiration for the founding of simi lar movements in France, England and Germany. The association prepares the idle land, which is loaned to them tsubject to dispossession when the owner wants It) for cultivation by plowing, etc., then dividing it into gardens about cne-sixth of an acre. Fertilizers and rufficlent rich seed to insure a suc cessful start are furnished the gar deners, which cost the association about $5 a garden. For these they cbarge $1 for the first season, $2 for the second season, and so on until the family pay the full cost of that which the assocfauon furnishes them. The families spread the fertilizer, plant the seeds, cultivate the growing crops, gather the produce, and, after supply ing their family needs, they sell the surplus that remains. Last summer 603 families were allotted plots covering 81 acres. These diminutive farms on city land, which otherwise would have produced nothing but weeds and rubbish piles, and. in addition to being disfigure ments would have been breeders of disease, have provided 3,000 men, ■women and children with a most healthful exercise, an instructive form of occupation and materially aided in reducing the high cost of living. The cost of cultivating these lands was 7.693. the food produced was valued at $32.000—54 for every $1 in vested—and all the profits went to the workers, who earned the help given them. This back-to-the-land movement is the best form of progressiveness. and «urely that man must be dead to all sense of social responsibility who will not loan his idle lands as instruments for self-support, better habits, prac tical education and real happiness. The largest profits of this nonpau perizing plan cannot be figured.

And he will no more know why you object to his wearing red ties than you will know why he doesn't know! Men are not conscious that the com fort of life depends on little things. Through long generations women have been managing and looking out for the ease of men in the creature com forts of home life. The sense of per ception about the Importance of hav ing delicious muffins for breakfast every Sunday morning goes after n dozen Sundays of having them. If they do not appear on the menu on the thirteenth Sunday John may growl a bit—but about the fifteenth Sunday he is likely to forget that he ever had anything more thrilling set before him than toast. And if the muffins again appear, he may com plain of the lac* of toast. Men are creatures of habit, but they are not creatures who analyze how the habits were formed. Trifles make up the life of any wo ' man who has not gone out Into the world to fight it on the basis of big things rather than trifles. And since our mothers and grandmothers back through countless generations were home-makers rather than wage-earn ers, we are naturally and instinctively and by inheritance dealers in trifles rather'than In the big facts of fighting the world. By some inscrutable law of Provi dence not one man in a thousand haj any consciousness of trifles. The thousandth man is a nervous, petty sort of creature who may remember that we like yellow roses and de test red ones, but he could not steer us through a crowded street on the way to a football game, or get us out of an excursion rush or make us feel safe just to be with him in a panic in the subway. Any woman's future comfort is like ly to depend on her schooling: her self not to care because John forgets his wedding anniversaries year after vear—and never sends * her flowers when she is sick. A manly man is fairly sure to neglect your taste in .little things. , not a charity, it is social justice—an opportunity for those in need to help • themselves by their own work. In addition to providing food and j the wherewithal for supplying other I vital needs it furnishes the only oppor -1 tunity for physical and moral growth under right environment. | "The greatest value our little garden j brought us." said a Frenchwoman ' shortly after a Philadelphian had in j troduced the plan in France, "has j not been in the tine vegetables it yield i ed all summer, or the good times that I 1 and the children htsve had in the I open air. but in the glasses of beer I and absinthe my husband hasn't J taken." "Quite right, mother," said a man standing near by. "No one can ever .know the evil we men don't do while we're busy in our gardens." The total number of recent parcels of land in the city of New York for 1914 was 193,000; the total for Brook lyn was 50,301. These parcels are often more than an ordinary building lot, and sometimes comprise several acres. It is safe to say that there are upward of 2 50,000 idle acres within our city limits. These could produce, if the same returns were made in New York as in Philadelphia, S4OO an acre, which would mean $100,000,000, and a net profit of $75,000,000. Thus, to use these vacant lots, which are now eyesores and nuisances, would not only be making something out of nothing, but give to thousands of families the truest relief —the opportunity to help themselves to procure a livelihood. The charlatans of charity hate va cant lot cultivation, not because it won't work, but because it will. If SIOO,OOO were set aside for the relief of 20,000 families, and the dis pensing of the relief were gratuitously managed, even then each family would receive only $5 worth of food; but the same sum applied to starting these families on gardens would result in making available $1,000,000 worth of food .an average of each for 20,000 families of about SSO. These facts should appeal to prac tical people who are sincerely in earnest in their desire to relieve, with out pauperizing, the present need in the best possible way.

Famous Dancer Gives Complexion Secrets I've learned the secret of Dolores' en trancing beauty—the wondrous charm that has dazzled the courts of Europe and captivated vast audiences every where. The famous dancer abhors rouges and cosmetics. Yet despite the Strenuosity of her life, she retains the incomparable complexion best describ ed as "indescribable.'' An Intimate friend tells me the senorita regularly uses on her face what druggists know as mercolized wax. This is applied at night In the manner cold cream Is used and washed oft in the morning. It absorbs the dead particles of skin wnich dally appear, and a fair. soft, fresh, girlish complexion is always In evi dence. Dolores' skin Is not marred by a single wrinkle, not even the finest line. She wards these off by daily bathing the face in ti solution made by dissolv ing an ounce of powdered saxoilte in a half-pint witch nazel. As your drug stores keep these ingredients, as well as mercolized wax (one ounce of the wax Is sufficient}, nu doubt your read ers will welcome this information. Aileen Moore In Beauty's Mirror.

When You Wash Your Hair Don't Use Soap Most soaps and prepared sham poos contain too much alkali, which is very fhjurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle. The best thing to use is just common mulsifled cocoanut oil, for this is pure and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap, and beats soaps or anything else all to pieces. Simply moisten the hair with •water and rub it in, about a tea spoonful is all that is required. It makes an abundance of rich. i creamy lather, clean.ies thorough ly, and rinses out easily. The hair dries quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh looking, bright, lus trous. fluffy, wavy, and easy to handle. Besides, it loosens and takes out every particle of dust, dirt and dandruff. You can get mulsifled cocoanut oil (it must be mulsifled. plain co coanut oil will not do) at any pharmacy, and a few ounces will supply every one in the family for months.
