No. 10 This Husband's
' Untidiness Causes' His
Wife's Story of Dispute
By Virginia Terbane Van de Water
.Copyriht, 1M5. by Star Company.)
My husband and I have quarrelled be
cause ot nia anuarent inauierence ii 10
how hla noma and he himself look.
Io the first place. Paul smokes, and
no amoker 1 thoroughly tidy. Then he
la not aa careful about hla personal clean
llneea aa I think a gentleman ahould be.
To be sure, I have not had much ex
perience with men, aa my father died
when I waa a mere child, and I had no
brother. Bo It waa hard for me to be
come accustomed to the odor of cltjrrs
and clcarettes. But for the take of my
huaband, I tried to do thla.
I am naturally very neat, and It make
me acutely uncomfortable to nee things
In dlsordor.
loon after our marriage we moved to
the suburbs and bought new cottage.
All our furniture waa pretty and dainty.
Paul seemed aa proud of our belonging-
aa I waa. Bo It waa a distinct disappoint
ment to me to note how little pains he
took to keep things Immaculate.
First of all, he bought a dog1. Now, 1
am fond of animals, and the thought of
having a dog on guard when 1 waa at
home alone waa comfortable. But t sup
posed that the creature would be kept
out of doors.
"When will you gut his kennel?" I
naked on the day of Hover's arrival.
Ho won't need a kennel." my hus
band Informed me. "He will spend mont
of hla time on the veranda."
"But In muddy weather, think how
dirty he will got the place," 1 ventured.
"In stormy weather he can come Into
the house," my huaband remarked. "lie
la too valuable a dog to ho left out at
night tn ail weathers."
I looked at the thoroughbred KnKHh
setter, and reflected that he was nr
talnly an ornament to any household
So I offered no further protest nt the
time,
It waa autumn, and with the first cold,
rainy evening Rover scratched for ad
mittance on our new front door. Pnul
smiled aa ho aaw the marks of the dog's
nails on the polished wood.
"Come In, you rascal!" he called, oppn
Ing the door. "You're as wet as a
drowned rat."
He apoke the truth. The doj hud been j
running through the woods not far from '
our cottage. He now made straight.' for j
the open fire, in front of which he pro- I
deeded to shake himself vigorously, the i
drops from Ms, shaggy hair flying In all j
directions.
"Oh, Paul!" I exclaimed. "Thla Is too
much! Just look at my pretty furniture."
But Paul only laughed.
That Is his way.
That la also the way that he took my
comments on hla smoking and many other
untidy habits. When he waa a boy hia
mother must have let him do just as he
pleased. He waa her only aon. Perhaps
that accounts for his carelessness.
It seems a smalt thing to quarrel about,
doesn't It? Yet, after a while, I found
conditions almost unbearable. Our living
room waa ftnlahed In white enamel paint.
Our ruga and hangings were in an exiiuis- j
ite shade of dull blue. It was an Ideal
room. At least, that la the way It waa
when we were first married.
Iater, when my husband's dog waa
not lying on my one white fur rug In
front of the fire, my husband's muddy
boota were drying there. He liked to
tramp in all weathers, and when he came
In, he would throw his damp mackin
tosh one on chair, his wet hat on an
other, and, stretching- himself out on the
oouch, with bis head on tho delicate
colored cuahlons, proceed to light his
cigar, and smoke, dropping the ashes
about promiscuously. Then, when din
ner was announced, he would go Into the
dining room and bit down at the table
In his rough clothes, his hair unbmfhed.
his hands unwashed.
I stood thla for one year. At the be
ginning of our second winter In the coun
try. I had a long talk with Paul. I told
him how unhappy hla way made me and
begged him to be more careful. He seemed
Impressed by my talk, which I made aa
rentle and conciliatory aa I could, and
promised to try to comply with my
wishes.
With my own money I had the rugs
cleaned, tho sofa cushions recovered, the
fnor "dene over." and the whole house
put In perfect order.
Then I went away for a fw days to
visit a friend In the city. I returned on
Sunday afternoon instead of waiting un
til Monday afternoon, as I had planned.
All the way home I was thinking how
different our little homo wmiM K nnur
that Paul was going to be more careful.
It was a bitter cold day, and. as I took
the Tillage stage from the railroad sta
tion, I pictured my husband's happy
aurpriee at my arrival. 1 also fancle-1
how eoay and inviting the cottage would
look,
iiut when I entered aoftly, I stopped
short in dismay. My husband's muddy
foot-prints and tho doga equally muddy
tracka were everywhere. Paul wore no
collar, and he had evidently not been
shared since my departure. He had had
two bottles sf beer brought Into the Uv.
tug room that morning, and the "emn.
ties" and a glass still stood there. The
place smelt of stale beer, cigar butU and
t dog's hide.
My husband laughed at my csdamaUoa
f disappointment. He always laughs
at fcuch things. Then be kissed me. The
bristle on hi ehla scraped my face, hU
soiled Unen and spotted clothaa offended

pushed him from me with both bands.
"Don't touch me!" I oommaiidetL
"What la Um matter T ha asked.

And we," I said, "the time Las come
ahett you are either to alter your hatilta,

Today Miss Barnes finishes her
article on calisthenics aa a means of
aiding women In their search for
graci ard beauty. The specially posed
exercises which Miss P-arnee Illus
trates, used In connection with those
given yesternny, arc classic In sim
plicity. They are within the reaoh of
even the busiest woman.
Hy HELEN' RARXEH.
These exercises complete the series I
started last week.
' First Raise the kneea as high aa pos
sible with amis outstretched, shoulder
high. Alternate raising kneea as rapidly
as possible.
Second Lie flat on the back on the
floor. Clasp hands above head and raise
one leg as high aa possible, keeping the
other stretched on the floor.
Just a word about the general rulea
governing these exercises, which are beat
taken in rotation as a complete scries.
Remember you are not doing them dally
Just for the fun of the thing. You want
results! So put a little head work Into
tho exercises and keep eternally at them.
You'll only 'waste your time If you go
about them in any other spirit.
Do each one at least ten times, and do
them all rapidly. Twenty minutes for
the whole wrles Is, quite enough. Start
them in the mornlrm after your cold
shower i plunge and at night go
through the four exercles for a few
minutes Just before retiring. Tho added
benefit you will get from your sleep will

Exercise every day In your room. Make
It a sort of religious rite that must be

poise. The old awkwardness that caused
you such agonies of shame will be gone.
Isn't that worth sacrificing a little for,

II lispprna that we hsve a very com
plete series of ancestral forms revealing
the evolution of the horse, but the evl
denee that all pe-ea of animals not ex
cepting man, have been gradually de
veloped In a similar manner Is Just as
clear and Irrefragable as It Is In the esse
of the horse. The monkey anil the ape
are often spoken of aa the ancestors of
man, as If they bore to him the same
relationship that the extinct hyracothe
Mum and phllohlppua do to the horse.
But the falsity of thla notion (which no
evolutionist entertained or taught) Is
sufficiently Indicated by the fart that
the apes and monkeys are our contempo
raries. The teaching of science la that
they are. physically, a collateral and In
ferior branch of the order of animals to
which man belongs.
The simple fact la that men and apes
have been evolved from some common
ancestor different from both. That an
cestor has nut yet been surely Identified
Its fossil remains may. Revert .el .-is,
be somewhere embedded In the earth's
rich cruat.
W'lth the effeot of these fact upon
the narrative of creation contained In
the Hebrew holy books', axlence dons not
concern Itself. Science did not sot out
to dlslroy or disprove that nsrratlvai It
set out only to learn all that It could
about the earth and the universe, and
the history of the earth and the universe,
aa far aa they can be apprehended by
human senses. If the facts of evolution
had been known In ancient times the
Hinlu would not have been written aa it
waa written.
Concerning the soul, science has noth
ing to ssy. because, to that, It can apply
none of its testa. It Is a conception
lying entirely outside of the scientific
field. Nevertheless, solunee does not af
firm that the soul does nut exist. There
is ne raon why the man uf science
should not be Just as much Impressed
as anybody else by, the wonderful words
that Hoi rates addressed to his fr.ends
when he was about to dlei
"If the soul la Immortal, then does
aha atand In want (( care, not only dur
ing thla period which we call life, but
for all time, and ws may welt consider
that there la terrible danger in neglect
ing her. If death Indeed were an eacaps
from all thing, then were It a great
gain to the wicked, for It would be a
release from the body and from their
own sin, and from the soul at the same
time; but now, aa the aoul proves to be
Immortal, there la no other escape from
evils to come, nor any other safety than
in her attaining to the highest virtu
and wisdom."
