have pork and potatoes and some
cabbage. Kit, run to the garden and
bring a cabbage; and Kat, you may
get the fire ready to cook it, when
Kit brings it in."
Kat went to the stove but it was
such a funny stove! It wasn't a
stove at all, really. ; ,
There was a sort of table built up
"tgainst the chimney. It was all cov-

was Saturday, the shoes were
scrubbed, too, that night.

While the pot boiled, Vrouw Ved

She scrubbed the door and outside

WHY CHANGE
YOUR WIFE?"
jdammounltfrtaxiftgiclure
... 1 By WILLIAM DE MILLE
WHERE was the girl he married? Where the
lure, the glamour, the ecstatic sweetheart
hours?
Faded into dull, drab matrimony.
Was he wholly to blame when another woman,
aglow with the joy of living, slipped into the '
place in his life which his wife had Jeft vacant?
WAS HE?
A vital, intimate picture of the greatest prob- .
lem of love and marriage. Dressed in all the
luxury, color and feminine beauty that distin
guished DeMille's "Male and Female" and "Don't
Change Your Husband."
