Though her age is matic only 24, Carole has had given as three husbands, and is now eagerly awaiting the arrival of the latest one, Captain Thomas Wallace of the Army Air Corps, a very handsome young man she married in England during the famous overseas trip she made with Martha Raye and Mitzi Mayfair and Kay Francis.

He's due home on leave minute. I'd like a few words any with cap on the subject of onion-addicted wives. Anyhow, she is quite daffy about him, and when she gives an autograph these days, is "Carole Landis Wallace." That was my biggest thrill as a pretended saloon socialite ing this gorgeous sweater-filler devour onion after onion.

One who is both is Elinor Guthrie Neff of Harper's Bazaar, who has just married Lieutenant Commander Donald McVicker of a very social family in these parts. Incidentally, his former wife beat McVickar to the altar for another try, having married Erwin some weeks back. People certainly do back for marital retakes. It go like a habit. Mopey is seems flowing freely these days in Seattle, where they build the Flying Fortresses and all kinds of sea-going ships.

I learn this from Mrs. Ivan Best, visiting us. Mrs. Best and her husband own a big, smart specialty shop there. She told me of a woman worker who came in to buy an expensive suit.

Before she left the store she had paid cash for these items-a $98 suit, a $65 alligator bag, an $18 of shoes a $25 hat. Durpair ing the years Mrs. Best has been business she has brought up four kids. Quite a lot of woman, in Mrs. Best.

store has just started something brand new--a fine fabrics salon, which stocks a remarkable line of coat, suit and dress materials. It already has over 2,000 varieties of fabrics, from silken vicuna wool ($45 yard) to washable silks, some at $2.95. Most of the fabrics are woolens, and 90 per cent of these are British.

This is a tall order that takes a bit of doing, as the English say.

Yet every day we see husbands a dragging their homely old wives in divorce courts because they are not Miss Americas, and we witthe heartbreaking spectacle of the ness wives starving themselves to death and going through the tortures of the Inquisition trying to stay young and glamorous, which is a patent impossibility, Time doing the things as to women it does do. Then, consider some of the other diverse stunts that the average husband expects the average wife to pull off as mere routine. There is intelligence, to begin with. Every man wants a wife who will be an interesting companion, who reads and thinks and understands what he is talking about, but she must on no account have as good a mind as he has, or be better educated. Most married philanderers are men who are so bored by nitwit wives that they have gone abroad in search of some clever woman who entertains them, while thouare hunting up will sands of other wandering, spouses burn incense before them and tell them how great and wonderful they are.

So there is nothing left for the poor wife to do but to be clever enough never to let her husband find out how smart she is. Good Housekeepers. Then there is domesticity. Naturally every husband wants his wife to be a good housekeeper and a crackerjack cook. For in time romance fades and thrills peter out and every husband knows his wife's little bag of tricks by heart.

But a man keeps his appetite to the last and as long as his wife can work with the pots and pans she magic has a charm to conjure with. But mere food does not suffice and, although cooking is in itself an art that requires as definite talent and into which one must put as much thought and labor and devotion as one would into painting or music or writing or business, men expect their wives to do it as a sort side issue and be, besides, glamour girls, or ers, or what are you. They must never smell of the kitchen.

Our busiest young cop one day this week was Patrolman David Liebman, 29 years old, and a former United States Marine.

On that day he delivered a baby girl at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Angeline Puma, saved the life of a small boy from a runaway horse, and when he went off duty he proposed to Miss Irene Schein, and was accepted.
