WOMEN H|NOEREOBY
SEX RELATIONSHIP
Wife of Sinclair, Socialistic
Author, Says Men View
Wives at Property.

NEW YORK. Aug. 29.-Mrs. Upton
Sinclair, wife of the author and social
colonist who recently announced his
intention of suing for divorce, naming
Harry Kemp. a poet, as correspondent,
has broken her silence and has given
her own defense. Attacking the moral
code which does not give the woman
the same freedom as men, Mrs. Sim
clair freely spoke her views ON sex
relations and outlined her plans for
the future, saying she intends to go
upon the stage.
AS matters are arranged now, says
Mrs. Sinclair, men have more rights
than women in the matters of sex re-
lationship. Speaking of myself have
the misfortune to have very conser-
vative husband. Mr.. Sinclair is es-
sentially monogamist without having
any of the qualities which a monog-
mist should possess.
"A husband who is monogamist by
nature ought to be able to occupy the
attention of his wife SO there could be
none of this attention of hers left for
other men. l believe a woman is in
stinctively a monogamist-when she
finds the right man. But her hunger
for her real mate is SO strong that she
is bound to search for him.
"Temperamentally Mr.. Sinclair and
are utterly different. He has the
strict ascetic, Herbraic temperament;
l have the artistic Greek temperament.
Despite this, however, we have been
very good friends. l loved Mr. Sim
clair at the beginning. l had youth
full ideas of eternal fidelity of mar
riage but l have had no experience.
knew nothing of the comparative
value of different loves. In attempt
ing to assert my freedom l have pur-
sued several friendships with me just
as though l was not married. was
Mortified when l found l could be in
terested in other men. 1t took me
three years to find l must act ON i'm
pulses.
"Mr. Sinclair wants to do every
thing by logic; want to decide every.
thing by intuition. 1t should not be
SO difficult for women to assert their
freedom. 1t would not be so difficult
but for the egotistical views of men.

A HOT WEATHER TONIC
A Home Made Medicine that Makes
/ You Sit Up and Take Notice

\ Homo Made Medicine that Makes
You Sit Up and Take Notice
The intense heat of this summer has
affected many of our people SO that
they can work very little; they say
they are constantly tired and worn
out.
This condition is neither natural nor
necessary. 1t is almost always due
to a slightly disordered stomach; a
perfectly healthy man or woman can
work even better in hot weather than
what we call comfortably cool' day.
People who are thus affected by the
heat need a hot weather tonic, one
that goes direct to the cause of their
trouble, the stomach; and one that
has a gentle tonic effect on the entire
system.
Such a medicine you can make right
In your own home. Here is the re-
cipe:
Get two ounces of Logos Stomach
Tonic Extract (concentrated at any
first class drug store. Mix the con-
tents of this bottle with enough wa
ter to make pint and add two tea
spoonfuls of ordinary baking soda.
Shake 1t up and you have your tonic;
could anything be simple?
A two ounce bottle Of Logos Tonic
Extract cost so cents at any drug
store.
