WIVES IN KOREA.
A Humorist Who Draws Moral From
 Their Silence.

A Humorist Who Draws Moral From
 Their Silence.
 It is said that in Korea after na- tive woman is welded she becomes practically speechless, says Newton Newkirk in the Boston Post. This is in conformity to custom and caste. A Korean wife does not after mar riage become absolutely mute, but she does not speak unless necessi. ty demands it. And, by the way, if none of us talked any more than necessity demanded this world would be full of large chunks of si- lence. The Korean wife does not chat. ter like parrakeet Hot air is some thing in which she does not deal Of course if the house got on fire she would mention it, or if she were to step on a snake she wouldn't try to keep the fact secret, but she does not talk over the back fence when she is bringing in the wash or converse with her neighbor when she is washing the windows. If she did, she would lose her caste and her social rating would slump faster than copper stock.
 Probably many brutal husband who reads these lines will sigh and say, "Ah, that my wife were Ko- reanw There has an impression got abroad in this land of the free and the home of the grafter that our women are endless and tiresome takers. In the eyes of the masses the American wife holds the long distance record as a continuous conversationalist. And upon this impression jests and jokelets are freely built. The eternally talking wife is prolific source of inspiration for comic weeklies and the vaudeville stage. Two comedians come down front and, with their noses touching each other, engage in rapid fire con- versation:
 q got talking machine down to my house!'
 "Oh, you got talking machine down to your house! How much did you pay for it?'
 q didn't pay nothing for it-I mar. ried it." (Shrieks of laughter from the large and select audience
 But if the wife is voluble of speech, is her husband a sphinx? If q woman is human photograph, is a man a clam? Not exactly-not so that you could notice it from the road through the binoculars. Most of the husbands who like to joke about the wagging tongues of their wives are living ex~ pounders of the hot air theory. They are the chaps who have nothing to say and devote most of their time to say ing it; they are full of persifage. yer bosity and prunes. When they open their mouths their tongues run away with them. Stand one Of these tire some expounders of the obvious Hp be, side talking machine and he vii! make it sound like a whisper. Man, as he averages up, is full Of bluff, brag and buster, and that's worse than you can say of the average woman.
