A few weeks ago girl in Des Moines
committed suicide because. the young
man with whom she was infatuated
grew cold. A few days after the girl
took her life the man in the case was
ARRESTED for petty theft. In another
case of recent publication the young
woman feared the future without q
! worthless man less than the cold wat
ers of the river. She drowned her
self and the reprobate over whose fall
ing away her silly mind gave way,
went to the penitentiary few weeks
later for sneak thieving.
These are rare instances. The girl
doesn't usually kill herself. Sometimes
she does worse. Generally she Is
shocked into a spasm Of common sense
and thanks God all her life that her
hearts desire failed her and that she
was not irretrievably tied to thief
and scoundrel. 1t seems to be i'm
herent for young girls to fall in love
with the inane and worthless types
Of young men.
Observe, II you please, the type Of
young fellow who makes his love affair
conspicuous on the street and else
where. He generally has a pretty and
intelligent looking girl or two hanging
on his braggart talk and languishing
at him with their eyes. Note the weak
ness Of his face, the self satisfied,
swell headed air. Take notice that
the manly boys avoid him. He does
not play football. He doesn't skate
unless it is girls party. Sometimes.
when he gets q dollar he plays
penny ante" or the slot machine. Cen
orally, speaking, ne doesn't amount to
much. Men who meet him do not
brighten up and say ''hello!" as tho
they liked him. Still, he stands in
with the girls, and is smugly self
content. AS long as the three meals
a day are forthcoming at his fathers
house he will pursue his heart-destroy-
ing course
It is natural enough that large
percentage Of these fellows should
steal. They lack objective and theft
comes easily to the person without
definite purpose as the plane of least
resistance. The mystery is that ordin-
arily intelligent girls should play the
fool and commit suicide over them.

DOCTORS MLST4KES

Are said often to be buried six feet under
ground. But many times women call on
their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain here and there,
md n this way they present alike to
themselves and their easy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribes
his pills and potions. In reality, they are
ali only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant OF the
tuuse Of suffering, Keeps up nMs treatment

portunity to issue twenty-dol1ar
mileage book good for families. These
books were selling for thirty dollars,
with a ten-dollar rebate, making the
change in price merely matter Of
convenience to the purchaser. Allow
ing members of the family to use
the book, where before use had been
restricted to the purchaser. was not
such an innovation to threaten reduc-
ton in railroad earnings. But the rail-
roads resisted this change as vigor-
ously as they would have resisted q
two-cent fare, declaring the proposed
law unconstitutional.
The railroads could well have af-
forded to meet the legislature with a
mileage book good not only for fam
lilies but good for bearer, at the
straight twenty-dollar rate. They would
have been securing their pay in adj
vance for q thousand miles of travel,
and scattering in practically every
home in the state paid-up transporta-
ton that would burn in the pocket until
it was used. Travel would have been
greatly increased, and the roads would
have been getting the same rate they
charge voluntarily without the neces-
sity of maintaining a bureau to figure
out return checks and discover whether
every strip had been signed by the or
iginal purchaser.
BY refusing to meet a situation so
obvious the roads have deliberately
encouraged the movement for fiat
two-cent fare until in every western
state .the legislatures are contemplate
ing the same legislation that will be
enacted in Iowa. 1t is incredible that
the roads did not forsee this. Per-
haps they prefer flat two-cent fare
to the mileage book system.

right policy as the newspapers!
1t is long time since the code with
reference to publication has been re-
vised. The uniform course has been
to revise it upward, which suggests
a complaint against the tariff system
coming within the purvi'sw Of the gem
eral government. Even now there is
disposition among newspapers to plead
for enlargement OF their special priv

greeable features as might be but for
