The w1FE'5 MORAL RIGHTS.
A Will-Making Incident Which Opens
Up a Wide Field OF Spec
uI0tfOn.

Has the wife moral right to take part
in making her husbands will? This
was the question urged recently by a
wife, says American Queen.
With a legal aspect of the matter,
she had nothing to do: legally, he was
not bound to consult her, and, on her
side, she knew that If she had possessed
money in her own right she could dis
pose of it as she desired. So far, it
seemed fair to both; but in this case
the only money possessed by the couple
was that which had been saved during
their married life. e.
1t was true that the money had been
saved out of the husbands earnings,
and had been banked and invested in his
name, but the wife declared that the
extent of the saving had been consider
ably increased by her. She had al
ways striven to make home comfortable,
and TO obtain the maximum of happi-
ness with a minimum of expenditure.
BY her careful household management
she had secured her object on small
er allowance than most of her friends;
formance of everyday duties in the
house. and thus caused her husband less
expense for servants, breakage and gen.
eral maintenance. Had she been so
minded, she might have spent much
more, and her husband would have ac-
cepted this increased expenditure as
matter of course. In that event his
savings would have been less; hence,
by logical reasoning, she had saved a
fair share Of the amount standing to
his credit in the bank or in stocks, and.
as a natural consequence, she had
moral right to have voice in the dis
position Of the estate
In the instance of which we are
speaking, the husband recognized the
truth of the argument, and crossed out
the diStasteful condition. This incl
dent opens up a wide field of specula-
tion. AS a general thing, the wife has
good moral grounds for insisting on
taking part in the will-making. as she
is the one who has to abide by the con-
sequences

will have it that Russia is so well
pleased with it's Siberian Railroad that
it is preparing to build another across

be better off without the Chinese end
of the railroad already built. A
writer in what is perhaps the leading
Russian newspaper affirms that the
expenses Of this road will be $4,000, 900
to 100000 more than its gross earn
ings; that the maintenance of steam
navigation on the AmoOr in connection
with the railroad nets loss Of about
$,OOO,0O0 a year; that interest on the
capital invested will amount to ST.
500 900 to $4,000, OOO and the military
protection of the road will cost $5,000,-
900 to $780, O0O-altogether $17, 100000 to
$22, 100000 a year just to keep the rail-
road going. Adding the expenditures
for improving the road for building
and maintaining the Pacific ports at
Port arthur and Dalny and the cost
of keeping a navy on the Pacific coast
