Telling Wife The Truth Isn't Done No Sort of Permanent Arrangement Can Be Built "on Moral Quicksand. By BEATRICE FAIRFAX. HOW much deception should a wife tolerate on the part of her husband? Many women write and ask me this question. A letter that has just come stands out from the rest in particularly clear cut form. A young woman of 26 tells me she is heartbroken because she can place no dependence in any thing her husband says. She has repeatedly told him that she wants to know the truth "no matter how bad it is." But that he breaks promises as often as he makes them. Having had experience in supporting herself, she asks whether she shall continue her efforts to reform him or again take up her work and "abandon him to his lies." As they have no children, the road fo freedom seems fairly clear to UtL The only difficulty in answering this question is that even if the writer were my own sister and I had the story from her own lips, it wouldn't be entirely' fair to pass judgment until I had heard the other side of the case. From this most sincere-sounding letter I must admit that the husband seems vrholly to blame. But how can one be sure that there isn't a wee bit of excuse for him? Lies Are Never to Be Condoned. Not that lies are ever to be con doned. But haven't we all known cases where a man's lapse -into this fault could be readily understood? Cases, I mean, where a wife hadn't learned that the right kind of love implies trustfulness,, consideration and courtesy, and' that, in fact, marriage is a failure when these qualities are lacking. A wife who loves her husband in a way that leads her to be suspi cious, jealous and forever on the lookout for him to commit himself to something or other damaging cannot always expect absolute can dor. Perhaps she will cross-question him like a prosecuting attorney, have sulks, make scenes, in which case she shouldn't be surprised if her harassed partner gives her an evasive answer just so the home will be a pleasanter place in which to live. A man who will lie to his wife in order to protect himself aiid secure a peaceful evening at home is not a hero, but it is very easy to under stand and sympathize with his weak ness. At least it must be admit ted that his wife is to- be blamed as well as he. ' :' So before a woman allows herself to become absolutely miserable with her husband or her marriage she ought to review her own behavior with a good deal of care. I don't mean that she ought to refer the matter to an idolizing mother or some woman friend who is pretty sure to confirm her own belief in her martyrdom. j No one else can tell her what she ought to know herself. Has she been fair and reasonable and kind and has she given the man every chance to be open and "square" with her? If she hasn't, I think she should give her husband, who, after all, may love her very much, an other chance. If she has done all this, and still has failed well, in that case there is no more to be said. n Where the Fault Is. For when the fault really is all on one side, and . when the husband or the wife, as it might be, in some cases is as. deaf to reasonable ap peals as the husband described in the letter f have quoted, then there is little or no chance of the mar riage remaining permanent. Indeed, a marriage that isn't a marriage, and that can't, after hon est trial, be remade into the real thing, ought not to be permanent. Perhaps that sounds extreme. Per haps some of my correspondents won't agree with me. But let me explain what I mean. That close mutual relation of marriage, the most wonderful rela tionship possible, must be based on love, as all lovers know. But love alone is not enough, a fact of which perhaps all young lovers are not so sure. If a marriage is to be real the two partners must be able to trust and respect each other and Bride of the Past Week ! i , l v vf; sJi" 'fcrj$mmi-; r ! V .1 m. i Tfv : r - -' , - 1 r'-1 W ! j - v : How the Prince of Wales Gets His Name Lonesome there must be absolute truth be tween them. ( No sort' of "permanent arrange ment can be built on a. moral quick sand, much less the1 ideal affair young lovers long for. And this is a matter that theyoung wife who has written to me seems to under stand and that her husband unfortu nately fails to. ' t ' ; Certainly mahy marriages have been ruined by deceit. And though men have sometimes been the vic tims, I believe that women have suffered more often, and largely for the following reason: A great many men have been al lowed to grow up with a very false point of yiew in regard to women. Perhaps at the bottom of - it all there is, a very old and unpleasant notion, never put into words now adays, that women don't really mat ter. That it isn't necessary, or even wise, to tell . the whole truth always, to a woman. . May Accept a Woman's Love. .A man may marry and accept the beautiful gift of a woman's entire self, the gift of her life, her energy, her love, with no idea in the world of givine her a full equivalent. ; Such a man as this may honestly believe that his own life is still his secret affair,' and that if an inno cent wife asks him innocent ques tions too many of them at least Lshe really can expect nothing bet ter than to be lied to. Do men ever think in just this fashion? Never havine been a man. I cannot be sure, but a great many of them act as if they did. If they do, however, they must unlearn this iery serious mistake. The girls of today have grown out of the defenseless ignorance that possibly once invited deceit. They are more self-reliant and better in formed than were the girls of a generation ago. .They. know truth tejling to be a virtue from which neither sex is exempt. And they knowv if marriage is to be a suc cess husbands and wives must have the same code. ... And it is surely a hopeful sign for the . marriaees of the future that so many girls and boys of the present day are coming .'to see things in this light. There is, of course, another side of this question. If you have the highest view of marriage and de mand perfect honesty from your self and the mail you marry,' you can't conscientiously continue to stand for a marriage that, after all your efforts, turns out to be a sham. A woman shouldn't feel there is any virtue in sacrificing her whole life to a man who refuses to act squarely with her. There is a point where patience, faithfulness and the rest of it leave off and slavery begins. And a woman who finds herself in a situation of this sort is fortunate if she is younp, strong and equipped for self-support. And as the young wife writinc to me says, she "may have lots to live for yet." U. S. Grant Relief Corps. The U. S.

CENTRAL TYPEWRITER EXCHANGE D. 4121. 1905 Farnam St. How the British crown prince ac quired the title of the prince of Wales and also the origin of his famous insignia, three ostrich plumes and the motto "Ich dien" (I serve), is the subject of a bulletin issued by the National Geographic society. The story of the title, the bulletin nays, dates back to the davs of Llewelyn, the last of the Welsh princes when that country still had i quasi-independent status. In Welsh legend, song and story, Llewelyn is a veritable King Ar thuri and his brother, David, the traitorous' Modred of his court. Llewelyn incurred the displeasure of Edward I., who had been in- j vested by his father, Henry III., with all the English royal claims : in Wales, by casting his lot with the j famous Monfort family, and per petrated what wa considered a di- , rcct arironx wnen ne announced nis betrothal to Eleanor de Montfort. Moreover, he declined to attend the coronation of Edward. Within two years . after that coronation iust 500 years before the American Dec-, laration ot Independence was signed Edward concluded a vigor ous campaign in Wales with the treaty of Conway, by which Lle welyn had to sign away most of his privileges. For five years Wales was quiet. Then David, wlio had aided the English king against his brother, headed a revolt against English -itle, set a torch to Hawarden cas- le and precipitated a war in which Llewelyn was killed. There was an ancient prophecy "hat the prince of Wales some dav M.nM rn,rA in T 1 ! mockery of that, it is believed Ed ward had Llewelyn's head brought to London and wreathed in ivy to show the people. While Edward was making sure of his subjugation of Wales by building- a. string , of castles, his queen joined him, and in the newly completed casjiie at Carnarvon a son was born. According to a popular story, the conqueror exercised his irrim humor by promising the Welsh a prince who could speak no English, construed to mean a na tive son, until Edward announced, upon the birth of his son, that the infant was the prince of Wales in fiuestion. Later he became King Edward II. Whether' that story be true or ot, the heir apparent was not formally invested with the title un til he was 17 years old. Ever since then the heir to the British throne has been known as the prince of Wales, though usually he has been invested with the title and not so endowed at birth. No less romantic is the story of the insignia and motto of the prince of Wales. Here again historians do not fully credit the generally ac cepted story. . Certain it is that another Edward, known as "the Black Prince" be cause of the armor he wore, adopted the feathers and the pledge. It is said that - he stumbled over, the body of the valiant John the Blind of Bohemia, after the battle ot Crecy ,and was so struck with ad miration of the sightless warrior who had his charger attached to horses of his companions so he might not fail in loyalty to his ally, Philip of France. - that Edward plucked the insignia from his ene my's uniform and swore to wear it forever after.
