Heartless Mrs. Brooks.

The Tribune has always held that mar
ried men are not treated properly by their
| wives. This would not be SO if il were
not Tor the generally shrinking aud non
comDatlve character of man. We need
not refer to many instances of the gross
| est cruelty on the part of wives which we
have exposed In the past peculiarity of
| the feminine warfare waged against man
| is that the same form of oppression or
| torture is seldom used twice Women's
| inventive genius in this line is something
wonderful. For instance, late dispatch
from Hallowell, Me. tells of new and
peculiarly heartless form of cruelty Just
perpetrated by woman of that place
named Brooks on her husband, also named
Brooks.
1t appears that Mrs. and Mr.. Brooks
had misunderstanding on the question as
to which pair OF mittens their little boy,
aged hve, should wear when he went out
to play Mr.. Brooks said that he should
wear his red ones; Mrs. Brooks, with ag-
gravating feminine obstlnacy, insisted that
he should wear his blue ones Why a
woman should invariably disagree with
her husband we do not know Many
women, more than ordinarily intelligent u
other ways, can never seem to recognize
the superior wisdom of their husbands
But we VIII not pause here for idle specu-
latlon. Mr.. Brooks insisted on the red
mlttens; Mrs. Brooks stubbornly stuck to
her insane idea about the blue mittens.
Inc argument grew warm, the woman
persistenty refusing to admit her error.
1t finally eliminated by her openly defyng
him, telling him that she only married him
out OF pity, and putting the blue mittens
on the child and sending him out to play.
Mr. Brooks manly spirit could not endure
this. With a f1rcblc expression which,
as 1t has no connection with the thread Of
the story, We need not repeat, Mr. Brooks
announced that he should live no longer,
and rushed upstairs to his bedroom Here
ne TOOK large bottle of red ink part of
winch he poured on the pillow and the rest
on his throat and clothes. Then he threw
himself heavily on the bed aud feiguel

window talking with neighbor and Civ |
ing her good advice in regard to some |
ounce jelly which refused to 'jell." But |

upstairs humming My Grandfather's |

st. Nicholas has completed seventeen sue

this number.
From the first it has had policy of its own
and has adhered to it without wavering. The
magazine seems to stand alone as a represen-
tative of the growing modern conviction that

ing and teaching, and that cultivation OF good

Ingersoll on Love.

The one thing constant, the one peak
that rises above all clouds, the one window
in which the light forever burns, the ohe
star that darkness cannot quench, Is wom-
ans love.
This one fact jLstites the existence and
the perpetuation of the human race. Again
| say that women are better than men; in
the web of their life sorrow is inextrica-
bly, woven with their greatest joys; self
sacrifice is part of their natures, and at
the bebest of love and maternity they
walk willingly and ioyously down to the
very gates of death.
Love is the perfume of the heart.
Those who are truly married are neither
masters nor servants. The idea of obed-
fence is lost in the desire for the happiness
of each.
Love is not convict to be detained with
bolts and chains Love is the highest ex-
preston of liberty. Love neither com
mands nor obeys.

WANTS A BOUNTY ON CHILDREN.

Mr.. W. c.. jackson, of Belfast, came
into the Journal office Monday morning
and asked if we knew anything about the
government paying a bounty on given
number of children. He said he had
read in a paper that the govern
ment would pay bounty Of $1,000 to
the American born parents, under forty
years of age. who had ten living. His
son-in-law, Mr. Josiah c. Berry. and his
wife, Mrs. Belle ID. Berry. of Hope, were
entitled under the above conditions. He
said that Mr.. Berry was but thirty-eight
wears old and his wife but thirty-five. yet
they had ten living children, the oldest
being eighteen years and the youngest one
month Mr.. Jackson was referred to
Congressman Milliken. If there is not
such bounty we are of the opinion that
there should be. Home industries ought
to be protected.
