Show ONE OF WOMAN'S CHIEF CHARMS Should Ever Remain a Mystery to Husband, Says Carmei Sylva. Carmen S Iva biih that rdlcenco la he secret of innrried linpplnOAs, Tho first fntnl onil Irrunnrnblo mlMnko In innrrleil life Ib that of confiding one's Borrows to the nearest, clearest friend of allotting any one n peep Into the difficulties of llio situation. And It must he owned that In this matter men, on the whole, display greater retlcenco and discretion than tho majority of women. Every woman should remain moro or less a sphinx, cyen to her own -husband, so that ho may always find In her some new tlddlo to solve; tho mystery that envelops her Is ono of tho greatest charms In his eyes, and the foellnt; with which It Inspires him in one of well nigh religions awe. If they could hut understand this surely many n wife would spare her husband tho hysterical outbursts, tho tears nnd scoldings, which can only lend to allcnnto still further his affections, af-fections, without affording herself tho slightest relief. l-ovo Is tho gic.it mnglclan, who nlono car. work miracles. It lives on turoiighout nil change, lilting Itself to altered circumstances, nnd triumphing In tho end over fate over death Itself. In married life it depends chlelly on woman's deft touch to keep nlivo tho sacred Hamc, tending It carefully through every transformation. It Is, thnnks to tier delicate tnct, Hint the fitful light whoso glamor Illumined Il-lumined love's young dream, instead of being extinguished by the first chill breath, shines on unillmmcd as tho steady, constnnt glow of friendship In Inter years.
