PARTING KISS.
Short Dissertations on How to Pre-
vent Divorces.

vent Divorces.
Never neglect a parting kiss
when starting for business. This
means you, and not your wife.
! Take your wife to the theatre at
least once week. When you huy
theatre tickets telephone home and
have your wife ample time to dress.
Tell your wife at least once a
day that you love her. Don't oom-
pei her to force this confession
from you; let it come by your own
free will.
Chicago, Dot. 30-"An ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of
cure" to cases of marital troubles
So thinks Mrs. Ashley @. Smith.
who was divorced from her hus-
band yesterday, the prominent
West Side club man and wealthy
secretary of the Marvin Smith
Company.
<"lf husbands would follow the
advice which 1 give them the di-
voroe question would be settled"
said Mrs. Smith.
"The divorce with S2,5OO ali.
mony which was granted by Judge
Haneoy was not contested. IF I
had wanted the divorce would
never have been given, but it was
best that we live apart"
rs itirue that you threw thingsI
at Mr.. SMITH
"Yes it is. came the three words,
with the force and precision of q
Colts automatic.
"How large is Mr.. Smith,"
"Oh, really, now-I hate to tell
you. For the sake of Mr.. Smith
don't you understand"
"Oh! Yes!
well anyway, we started in an
even GLASS. Since then my weight
has gone down and on several Sc
vera occasions his has gone up"
with flourish of her hand.
Mrs. Smith then leaned over in
confidential way and asked:
"Are you a married man?"
An affirmative answer was given
and for 80 minutes the reporter
listened to advice.
In all seriousness always kiss
your wife goodby when you leave
for your work. Don't wait for her
to do it. She has troubles of her
own and may be more occupied in
the morning than you.
"You have your business to bur-
den you. I'll admit, but woman
has more than that. Perhaps she
little girl to DIR, IS for school.
Between the bites of her break
fast, the wife has thousand things
to think of that occupy her stten-
ton more than the matter of taking
the initiative in parting kiss.
Remember that your wife has
right to expect little entertain
ment at times Buy theatre tick
cts and telephone home that same
afternoon letting her know in am.
pie time that she is going to play.
MANY husband has had his
little theatre party spoiled by an
unappreciative wife. whe has not
had time to dress properly for the
show"
"Then, too, tell your wife at least
once day that you love her.
This may seem a trifiing matter,
but the woman who stays at home
all day with her domestic drudgery
wants to know that she has some
thing to live for"
AT this juncture the discourse
on divorce Difficulties as Deter
mined by Dame Divorce" was in
terrupted by an interested neigh
Dor. whose husband evidently had
ut neglected the above duties.

"DoETH GOOD"

II have always been Il great worker

morning I would feel unequal to my
daily tasks. So would drink Il good
stiff cup Of coffee OF which / was very
fond and then for two or three hours
afterwards I would feel so smart and
buoylnt and keyed up to such a high
note that I could undertake most any
thing. But along about II o'clock the
reaction would begin and leave me
stranded on a lounge until dinner
time. Then 7 would get a cup Of tea

went on for a number of years and the
great wonder is that I did not collapse
altogether. I must have had a good
constitution. Every month I got a lit
tie WORSE.
at last and with great reluctance I
was forced to the conclusion that it
was coffee that was the chief cause of
my many troubles. So 1 looked the
matter up carefully. quit the coffee
and began the use of delicious Postum;
the wisdom Of this change was soon
shown in material improvement in

HARRISON "UNFAIR."
chicaeo's Mayor Placed on Black List
by Unions.

Chicago, March Mayor Harrison
has been put on the unfair ..:st of
the federation of labor. The fight on
the mayor was brought into the Cen
.ral Labor organization by John J. De-
laney, a member of the Stationary En-
gineers' Union and an inspector under
the city board Of examining engineers.
The grievance of Delaney and his as
sociates against the city's executive
was that he had refused to permit the
examining board to be made an organ
izing agency for the union. The charge
was that unlicensed engineers were
in the Office buildings and no.
tells in the places vacated by the union
men who struck, Jan. l. and that tho
city refused to prosecute them.
Proclaimins an individual rs unfair
when he is not engaged in any business
Is almost unprecedented. 1t was taken
to mean that the union men should re-
fuse to support the mayor at the polls
Or anywhere else.
