ORDERER HUSBAND HOME.
Greensboro Woman Walked Into
Pool Room and Drove Husband
Home, at the Point of a Pistol
Had Neglected His Family.

A special from Greensboro to-
Thursdays News and Observer, says:
CONSERVATION was created in
Clegg's pool room last night at To-
O'Clock, when Mrs. J. NJ. Field, arm
ed with a 32-calibre pistol, walked
into the place, and going up to her
husband, demanded that he accom-
pany her home. The pistol was
pointed in the face of the surprised
husband and father. In a moment
number of men in the pool room
were behind Mrs. Field and took the
revolver away from her. AS soon as
she was disarmed, Mrs. Field began
to upbraid her husband for his al
legged neglect of herself and four
children, who she is reported to have
said were starving and without
proper clothes, while he loafed about
pool rooms and spent his money on
| bad women.
| Her story was pitiful, her appear
ance such as to attract sympathy and
she caught the ears Of large num-
Der of men who were about the place
at the time.
She seemed desperate, and no
doubt meant to carry out the threat
she had made if her husband had
not gone home with her. Both ieal-
ousy and neglect figured in the esca-
, pade. When her husband did &C
: company her outside, she caught him
5 by the arm and jerked him about In
the hotel lobby. When on the streets
she began shaping him and treated
4 him rather badly. Mr.. Fields travel:
: for the American Credit Register
Company, and is very well known in
= the city. Friends say that he is con
/ siderate of his wife and family, bu
e others say that he is often seen il
j company with other women, and Ii
a frequently registered at local hotels
d though he has a family and home
a here. After the difficulty, the mar
}, who took the revolver from the WON
e ans hand examined it, and fount
e four of the five chambers loaded an
l. the revolver in working order.

Is Bad Play Worse Than a Bad
Book?

Parents who are at great pains to
inform themselves about the books
their young people read often give
no thought to the plays they see.
A bad book is harmful enough,
heaven knows, Turing youth to hide
for a debauch in indecency. But from
such an experience youth returns
soi1ed and ashamed, certain that de-
cent people would not countenance
such performances.
But bad play! There vice enacts
itself in the public gaze, with many
supposedly decent people in the audi
ence.
Youth is wide-eyed. Instantly ii
suspects that indency cannot be the
sporadic, exceptional thing youth has
been taught to think it. 1t must be
general Maybe it is universal. May
pretense? Is innocence only unsophis
| tication? Is it manhood and woman
hood to know and do such things?
You see what infinite possibilitie
for harm Turk in a bad play, ant
why we ought to keep plays whole
! some and helpful.
Nothing can be so helpful as goo'
play, just because it does intimat
the universally of purity and nobil
ity; just because it does inspire you'll
to emulate the best.

The Evening Chit Chat
By RUTH CAMERON

THE man-whothinks Is about to take part Of his summer vacation.
The other half he will take in late September Or october.

through the hot summer"
And this is the explanation of his conduct which the man-whothnks
gIves-that is. when he cares enough for the critic to bother to give any,
two weeks of August up to five years ago. Thought I couldn't get through
the summer unless 1 did. And then things happened 81 1 had to take a
week in May and a week in October and 1 liked it SO well I've done that
ever since.
In the first place I never feel so much like going IN a vacation s I
do when the Ice is just out of the lakes.
And in the second place, 1 am never more tired than 1 a m at the end
of the winter rush. 1 don't see now how I ever got through the summer
without the strength 1 build up in that week.
And in the third place, think of the Joy OF escaping the summer
crowds. / am sure 20 get a star room and the best of attention. 1 al
ways meet a few interesting people but never get into a mob.
And anyway, in my mind the most comfortable place in summer is

when 1 went to III Lake, because I'd heard what a beautiful and rest

Mrs. DEMA BETHUNE, Sikeston, Mo.
The most successful remedy in this
country for the cure of all forms Of
female complaints is Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
1t is mor widely and successfully
used than any other remedy. 1t has
cured thousands of women who have
been troubled with displacements, in
Examination, liberation, fbroid tumors,
Irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
that bearing down feeling, indigestion,
and nervous prostration, after all other
means had failed. Whydon't you tryit?

Not long ago a pair Of penguIns at
the London o became the parents of
a baby penguin. Penguins are sell
dom seen In captivity, SO the advent of
the baby was a matter Of great inter-
est to naturalists and the public gen.
orally. The penguin's home is in he
southern hemisphere, and they live
amid the ice. The wings have only
r~udimentary quilts and are used as
paddles. The young are born covered
with down, but are very helpless and
require to be tended for a long period
In the nest The food of pengiuns
consists exclusively Of fish, which the
birds capture beneath the surface by
their agility in swimming and diving,
when their paddle-like wings serve
them to good purpose. So thoroughly
at home are they In the water that
they at first glance are often mistaken
for dolphins or ~porpoises.

Entertaining during Easter can
scarcely be considered bad form when
its object is to give the children limo
cent pleasure. So, then, the Easter
rabbit and the Easter chick are fas-
cinating creatures and can be used to
such advantage in table decoration and
the making of Easter favors that 1t
seems a pity there should not be more
Easter parties. II ones conscience is
particularly sensitive in regard to East
er frivolities the Easter party may
be held a week after Easter. Charm
ing favors are in the shape Of large
papier mache eggs mounted on wands
a rabbits head peeping out Of the egg
and it's surface being covered with pic
lures Of flowers, either hand painted
or Of the transfer kind. A knot of rib
bon finishes the handle.
A yellow haired child could be dress
tie short full skirt Of white crinkly
paper have a sort Of pannier effect,
made up Of numerous yellow ribbons
with tiny yellow chicks on the ends.
These should hang from a belt OF soft
yellow satin. A garland of these tiny
chickens on the hair and one perching
on the toes Of the little white pumps
would not be a bad idea.
And why not have a brother and
sister present the red and blue goblinF
80 familiar to good and bad children !
Large sailor hats can easily be covered
with red and blue; then on the white
wash suits can be arranged large col
ored sailor collars. Colored belts and
colored silk stockings will complete the
costumes with almost no trouble.
A brown haired little girl may be
dressed as a rainbow by using ffmy
chiffon of the rainbow hues. Silver
slippers and a silver coronet in the
hair will complete this bit Of lowell
ness.

A Boys Qussr Tumble.

Lloyd Skinner climbed up the stone
face Of the dam at Electric lake, in
New Jersey, and when he had reached
the top he fell down to the bottom.
This is a bad habit that some boys
can never break themselves of. Lloyd
did more than fall. AS he passed a
jagged rock his coat caught, and 1t
was taken off his back as neatly as If
somebody had tried TO hold him up by
the ends of the sleeves. By the time
he reached the end Of his fall he had
lost q shoe as we'll. In return for
these losses he received a large black
and blue bruise on his back. but other
wise his thirty foot tumble did not do
him much harm.
