Jim wants a home and he wants children, and he wants a nice little dinner waiting for him at the right time, and he’d like a few flowers in a window box and a ridiculous curly puppy to laugh at—and Jessica hates the idea. Jessica used to talk to Jim about a bungalow in the country, with an ipple tree in bloom, and some lilacs at the gate, and a |-silver Persian in the window—but now, she says ""she -won’t be tied down to housekeeping for any man. She hates to cook and she hates to sweep and she rntes to wash dishes, and she hates to sort the laundry, ind now she’s gone down town and taken a job. I do hope Jimmy will have sense enough to be glad Jof that. Jessica could never keep house in any decent sort ){ way—no, not to save her life. She isn’t interested J housekeeping. She’s interested in moving pictures, irgains and in shopping matinees. So she’s gone iwn town to a big store to stand behind a counter and 11 women what they ought to buy, whether they want buy it or not. Jimmy is mad. Good plain American mad. He says WINIFRED BLACK Jessica told him she loved to keep house and wanted a home so badly that she’d die if she didn’t get one, and as for children —she never passed a baby in the street without stopping to look at it i Just mention babies to Jessica now and she won’t speak for twenty-four hours. Jimmy says it’s a case of false pretenses—and I’m afraid that soipe fine night Jimmy will go down to the water front and get aboard a boat and go somewhere, a long ways off, and forget all about Jessica and the way she fooled him into marrying her. Somehow, I’m sorry for Jessica, too. She really does love Jimmy, but she was in business before she married him, and she just can't stand it to stay at home. Maybe she really did think she wanted a home and babies, and flowers in the flower box. And Jimmy’s dinner ready for him. And a little run out to the beach in the flivver. But now that she has Jimmy tied down, and nailed down and fastened down, he isn't so ro mantic and entrancing as he was and when it comes to a question of either Jimmy or a job—Jessica pre fers the job. What a pity it is that she didn’t know her own mind, isn’t it? Well, she’s done better than her sister anyhow. Her sister is a busi ness woman too, and sister’s husband has a pain in his back—or some thing—and he never keeps a job. And sister not only has to wash and iron his shirts, but she has to buy them in the first place. When Jessica thinks of sister, she feels that she’s really made a great match—I do wonder how Jimmy honestly feels about it, don’t you? j Helpful Advice to Girls i ■ -By Annie Laurie — Dear annie laurie: 1.
