(See Recipes Below) Cupid's Share "Judd is home for lunch every day and I hat a no help." By KATHLEEN NORRIS said WHOEVER lottery said time ago, for I cant remember the time when I wasnt familiar with the phrase. Naturally it doesnt mean anything to children, nor even to youth, for young lovers feel perfectly confident of each other no lottery about it, they know. But later on, after a few years of matrimony, wise women recognize the truth of the old saying. For every wife gets good and gets bad out of her bargain, but the good isnt the good she expected, and the faults she presently discovers even in the most perfect husband, arent in the least the faults about which she so lovingly and jokingly teased him when they were only engaged. A woman named Tania Quinn writes me about It. Like a million other American girls Tania married a serviceman last year; she had known him only seven weeks when she became his wife, and at that time didnt think that he had any faults at all. He's a flier, and while all servicemen possess a romantic attraction for women, fliers have a special glamour. Tania admits that she has been unusually popular, that a great many of the boys wanted to marry her, and she sqrs she made special stipulations before she would consent to say "yes to Judd. She must have her own separate room. He was never to be home for lunch. They werent to have a baby for five years. At the end of the first year they were to have a frank talk, each telling the other the 10 qualities or habits he or she most disliked in his mate, and if they were not able to come to a fair agreement then they were to separate. ; Flier Agreed to Terms. Judd, rather weakly it seems to me, but perhaps he was too madly infatuated to be reasonable, agreed to these absurd terms; he and Tania were married, and he flew away. Now he is home again, to stay. Because of a foot injury he cant fly any more, but has been placed as an instructor at an important 'T'HAT HUMANS CONSTANTLY CHANGE Human beings are constant ly changing either for better or uorse. Rules of behavior cannot be laid down by one human for another to follow. That is the mistake made by the young wife in the situation discussed today by Kathleen Norris. This young lady laid down certain regulations that her suitor was to follow when they were married. He hasn't followed them and she is discouraged. Marriage is not a cold blooded proposition to be planned and worked out according to a formula. This young lady is finding this out. No husband or wife can be expected to remain the same year in and out. They change. Hidden qualities are developed, some good and some bad. months of hourly danger, his heroism and his injury, for not taking too seriously Tania's conception of what true mating between a man and a woman is. Men Changed by Marriage. Take it as a law, you girls who are jumping so gaily and confidently into marriage; his faults and his virtues, his tastes and his dislikes, will all be a complete surprise to you, whether youve known him a month or ten years. The frequenter of night clubs and dance halls wants to settle down with the newspaper and the radio. The waster of money, who bought orchids and candy and champagne for you before you were married, turns out to be a miser at heart The flatterer turns silent and unresponsive; the big burly outdoors hero is afraid of getting his feet wet But on the other hand, unexpected generosities, helpfulness, wisdom, knowledge, patience have a way of The man who appearing, too. seemed blunt and unappreciative during courtship days, amazes you with roses on an anniversary.

Are the spring 1944 knit models beauties! Take a glance at the trio of woolknit fashions pictured and judge tor yourself. Seen in the original, these three costumes are simply breathtaking in way of color, styling detail and silhouette. The grand thing to know about the winsome little woolknit suits so conspicuously present in midseason and spring apparel showings is that the modern versions sag not, bag not and they neither bulge nor pull out of shape. Then too, their production has been brought up to such point of perfection that it takes an expert to distinguish them from woven fabric. They are, however, really knitted, which endows them with particular qualities that make them comfortable for work or play, and at the same time they are too smart-lookin- g for words. Town or country, traveling or wherever it goes in any clime in the U. S. A., the little woolknit suit will fill the bill. Then too, put to the test, it will be found so accomin its servmodatingly year-roun- d ice.
