German Declares That
to an Englishman Mar
riage Is Nothing.
BY DR.. EMIL REICH.

To the Frenchman. the German, to the
man on the Continent, matrimony
means everything. Woman converts the
man who, like a piece OF driftwood,
floats aimIessly down stream into a
good citizen, a careful business man,
and a conscientious worker; she awak-
ems ambition in him. she makes him,
II anything can, 2 success in life.
To the Englishman marriage is moth
ing His wife IS as the cigar he smoked
yesteTday-not worth talking about.
Even when he is counting the girl he
says he loves. he does not talk wo-
man" or make pretty speeches to her.
or pay her compliments. His thoughts
are not a whit more or a whit less con
centrated on his work because Of her.
His cricket does not suffer; he is not
less ut for his football matches because
OF her.
When he has a free half-hour after
the serious work Of life is over (the
work OF sports and business), he will
consent to come and talk 10 her-proba-
bly, about politics, or the latest cut in
GOATS; never about love.
After his wedding he leads the same
life, morally speaking, as he did before
except that he perhaps works a little
harder His wife has made no differ
ence. He goes TO his club as often, he
takes as keen an interest In his sport,
he bets mildly. and he CANDLES mildly.
He is also quite as ready TO run after
the next pretty face he sees.
And yet, this is astonishing, for the
Englishwoman is, consider, the most
beautiful and clever woman in the
world
Yet, with all her charms, she has less
influence over men than any otheE
whom / know. With beauty 10 aIlfael
and with brains to enliven, she IL only
a Iigurehead in the social scieine OF
British life.
And worst of all. she does not de-
maud 10 share her husbands work. a
N,ou7au's duty does not begin and end
in heine a good housewife and faith
fI1I mother 1t is not thus that she can
influence her husband. She must work
with him share his business worries
and troubles. understand his failures
and his success.
The Englishman viii not allow 1t, you
say. I know IL, but that IS because the
Englishwoman does not demand il as
her right.
If she co-operated with her husband
and insisted upon sharing his life, Eng
land would not only be the greatest ma
ton in the world today. but the great
est that ever existed-she would be
Greece and Rome IN one.
Marriage makes a man more OF man.
Tt teaches him lessons that he could
never have learned otherwise.

which is carrying on a daily campaign
in favor of Great Britain's program of
naval reforms, to the effect that the
low pay OF the British bluejacket
means that he only serves an appren-
ticeship there. and graduates into the
American navy. where he receives high
er pay. The statement is made that the
proposed extension OF short service has
not only a tendency TO destroy the sea
going efficiency of the men. but will
result in a great benefit to the United
States Navy.
If such a policy is carried out there

TRANSPORT WORK
HIGHLY PRAISED
Troops and Supplies Sent to
Cuba Without a
Hitch.

Considerable praise is heard IN army
circles at the manner IN which the
Quartermaster's Department handled
the transportation Of troops and sup
plies to Cuba, as not hitch OF any
consequence occurred before starting,
en- route, or while landing on the
island The only accident that occurred
was due solely 10 the fierce storm when
some of the transports encountered on
their way 10 and from Cuba. In this
respect, the chartered ship. Guiana,
had the most costly experience. Dur
ing the storm l4 mules and eight
horses were either swept overheard
from this ship or We're so injured by
the vessels rolling and tossing that It
was necessary TO kill them. The Kama
VIVA lost 100 horses in the same man

Although there were more troops
moved and the distance was greater
than IN the instance OF the San Fran
cisco disaster. there was really less
work involved the first week or ten
days. as the War Department Profted

necessity for a greateC susn at that

Post Cards for the Navy.

Having banished from their con-
spicuous places on advertising
boards and city walls those beauti-
fully colored pictures showing the
esthetically delightful life of a
sailor or marine on the warships
of the United States, the naval au-
thorities have another scheme for
the purpose of inducing into the
ranks young men of proper physique
and respectable morals.
The old plan had become so pal
pably foolish, SO evidently a mere
triekster bid to a career that did
not exist, that the Navy Department
has long desired to cast it aside.

The Endowed Theater Again.

Is il to be believed that out of our
rich, refined. play-lOYing population
there are not 20 be found those with
sufficient enthusiasm or self-sacrifce TO
raise whatever money is necessary to
establish at least one ideal experimental
Lheater with a siXpenny gallery and q
shilling pit, all places TO be reserved,
and with free performances at least
once week. where the best works OF
/. the best dramatists OF the world could
be played by a company whose primary
OBJECT was not TO serve as advertise
ments for the dTessmaker, or be mere
. incidents in the scenic splendors of the

The World Today" 1t is an inter

of us who 60 to the theater for our
own instruction and pleasure and
forget our less fortunate fellows.
If so, maybe it is just. But that is
not so important as 10 determine
If a theater endowed by such means,

because, at the very outset, it is
an artificial device. Whatever is
artificial and is put into competi-
ton with natural enterprise loses
in the fight. The whole inclination
of the poor man would be away
from such a theater. He might 90
but he would not like it. And when
the theater commercially maintain
ed lowered its prices to those of the
theater endowed he would prefer to
pay for his entertainment exactly
as he prefers to buy food in the
market rather than take it free
