4 Much Needed Little Lecture to tho
Married Mon,

Married NlCMs
Perhaps men think am exaggerat-
ing the evil. Perhaps they don't know
that the only advice married women
give to engaged girls, which never
varies, is: BE sure you ask for an al
lowance from the first, because if you
don't you may never get It," l sup
pose the majority of men don't know
that their wives hate to ask them for
money, says the Woman's Home Com
panion. OF course, it doesn't seem so
terrible to those of us whose fathers
occasionally want to keep back enough
money to buy coal, when our daughter
ly demands are refused. But we never
Imagine that girls lover-husband-
this courteous stranger whom she has
loved and married-should ever forget
his theater and American beauty days
sufficiently to say: What did you do
with that dollar gave you yesterday"
Now, frankly speaking, it never occurs
to unmarried girls that their honey
moon can ever wear off. We look up
OH husbands as only married sweet
hearts. We sort of half way believe
them-at least we used to before we
saw other girls husbands-when they
tell us that they long for the time
when they can pay our bills and buy
our clothes for us. We never thought,
until we were told, that any little
generous arrangement which we eX-
pected to last must be fixed during the
first weeks of marriage. l dare say
most of us had planned to say, in an
swer to the money question: Just as
you like, dear. I'd rather have you
manage such matters for me- You
know so much more about them than
| do 1t is a horrible shock, from a
to say: I'll take an allowance, please"
AMI then if two amounts are mentioned
to grab for the biggest. Oh, it's a
shame 1t is a shame to be told that
We'll be sorry if we don't and to know
that we shall have an opportunity to
show how unselfish and trusting we
are. 1t is all your fault, you men,
that you don't think OF these things
more. You might stop a moment to
consider that it is rather delicate
matter for a woman to ask money Of
man. If your wife is like most
wives she is doing as much to help you
make your money as you are. She is
keeping you well and happy and your
| home beautiful. You couldn't keep
your mind on business an hour if she
didn't. Therefore she deserves every
! dollar which, after discussing your fu-
ture life together, you feel that you
can afford to give her. She ought to
be made to feel that she has earned it
and that she may spend it freely and
happily or invest it just as she may
choose. Do you think that you
wouldn't get the whole of it back if
you were i'll and needed it? 1t is an
ungracious thing to call her to account
for every dollar.

Dyspepsia or Indigestion.

CDR. Fenner's Dyspepsia Cure' as the
name implies is simply for dyspepsia
or indigestion. It should be superior to
the general run of prescriptions or pre-
parations because it is prepared by a
physician of many years of study and ex-
perience whose writings on medical
questions are accepted authorities. If
not satisfied after using one bottle H. d.
Alert e. Co., of Langdon will refund
your money.

A Cuban SympathiZer.

This is how the editor of the Cordele
(Ga) Sentinel talks about the Cuban
question: "Throw down the gage OF
battle to the bloody monster and let us
be quick to crush the life out Of the
foul viper with liberty's heel Let us
hear the echo of Columbia's guns pour
ing her fiery missiles into Moro castle
the lusty shouts of Cuba Libre, and
then angels will make the welkin OF
to sweeter lays, and liberty will bow
her white head to revive one more jew
eli in her crown. Est pro patria mort. -

The Duty of the Young Voter.

There is one point, however, which
cannot be passed over in discussing the
duty of attending the primary caucus
In order to go to a primary you must
belong to a party, and therefore the
question of attending the primaries
opens up the larger question of polit-
zeal parties. BY balancing one party
against another the genuinely indie
pendent vote has often a great effect,
but in the long run that man is most
useful who allies himself with one par
ty or the other. and is thus able to do
his duty and exert his influence as
an American citizen to the fullest ex-
tent The man who does this not only
makes himself felt in deciding between
candidates at the ballot box, but also
has his say as to who those candidates
shall be. and as to how the great par
ty machine shall be run. l am not
counselling blind partisanship. Any
one Of us may be a strong party man
and yet be Obliged to break with his
party if the organization abandons the
great principles on which it rests. My
proposition simply is that, as, under
our system, our government is to be
conducted by political parties the most
effective and useful citizen is he who
belongs to one of those two governing
organizations. The highest duty of ev-
cry American citizen is to vote; the
next highest duty is,to go to the pri-
mary and take part in the govern
ment of the organization which is to
govern the state or country.-Harper's
