In THE p those few words lies the truth of womans position, and theres no evading the disconcerting fact. To be the wife today of a man in service overseas is n n heartbreakingly hard. To be married here at home, to be trying to keep happy a nervous, overtired, anxious, irritable and unreasonable man, is worse. But not to have a man belonging to you at all, not to be able to turn to a mate, in these darkest days of the worlds history, is surely the worst lot of all. There are certain brief, intervals in a when she may life womans be happier single. When she is young and lovely, when she signs a new contract in Hollywood, when she makes a suchigh-light- cess along any line of business or professional adventuring, how delightful to be independent and free! its . r, p ed ' . mad, and presently feels all right again. And perhaps after awhile she realizes that through no particular merit of her own she has been saved from making a fool of herself, as Janet did, losing home, husband, children, the respect of her family and friends, income, position and a dozen other things she had been taking calmly for granted! For Janets Bill has married someone else, has been made general manager, takes the children off for visits and they adore him and nobody wants to hear Janets side of the story! Husband Source of Comfort. Even a normally unsatisfactory husband can be a very present source of strength and comfort. For a wife has her faults, too, and does foolish things, and feels ashamed sometimes. She buys an extravagant blouse, when the budget is already strained. She risks taking a baby with a hard cold on a social call, and he comes down with bronchitis. She forgets that the Walkers are asked to dinner, and is caught in an old apron, with curling pins in, and nothing in the house but three frankfurters and half a watermelon. These things happen to all wives. To lean her head against his shouloer in an unwatched moment, to say Fred, you're being terribly nice! makes up for a good deal. Oh, I haven't always liked him, said a peaceful old wife to me on her golden wedding day. "But I've always loved him! It isn't always easy to live with a man. No, and it isnt always easy to live without one And it isn't always easy to live at all.

It's often tedious, frequently disagreeable. Prole ablv most every married woman has wished, at least once in her life, that she could get out of her bonds. Being single has its attractions for a little while uhen a woman is young and attractive, or uhen she is succeeding in her career or business. But in later years, a woman appreciates the comfort and security of having a husband. Even if lie is quite unsatisfactory, he is a source of strength and comfort. Its so nice to have some one to pet you and smooth you down when everything seems to go wrong; someone to lean on in difficulties, someone to rejoice with you in your triumphs, or the sucresses of your children. Many women who have contemplated divorce when married life seemed unbearable, are glad they stuck it out afterwards. There is only one thing worse than being a wife, says Miss Norris that is being single. But that sort of fun only keeps for a flavor for a few months few years at most. Then the chosen vocation, however filling to the mind and the purse, proves singularly unsatisfying to the heart. Passing love affairs so thrilling in the beginning, so quick to cool, so hard to dispose of only make her realize more keenly how they cheat her from, and Indeed unfit her for, that hard and sweet, exhausting and yet exhilarating, constantly pruned yet growing, maddening, constantly heart-fillin- g thing that Is true marriage. Some Women Need Patience. Very rich and very famous women sometimes havent patience and character enough to achieve it. They fling themselves from divorce to divorce, often with disastrous effects on their childrens happiness, and always with the destruction of their own.

If the children hadnt been so devoted to their father, and if their position hadnt been so much better, living in his home, than it would have been in the more modest establishment she would have maintained on allowance and alimony. Dignity, pride, a reluctance to blacken Freds character in the eyes of society all these hold her in place. So she endures the unendurable, swallows her pride, stifles her sense of self-pitand justice, gets over her color-blind- - SINGLE LIFE IOT SO BLESSED Smart geranium apron.
