The only way to find out things is to
ask questions, and the time to ask
such questions is beforehand not after
marriage.
81 have come to the conclusion also
that some persons are physically an
taonistic, while APPARENTLY in mental
harmony. Nature has certain definite
and immutable laws which govern hui
man beings, and these laws should
not be overlooked.
TOO often passion governs in such
cases and is mistaken for love, the re-
suit being marital disaster. There is
very definite line between passion
and love, the former, as a rule, being
responsible for the hasty marriages
which, as a rule, turns out badly
Love is not so impetuous. 1t is more
calculating. True love matches sell
dom go to smash, l believe, because,
where love is the ruling attraction, the
necessary physical qualities and de-
sires are present to permit it to reach
its fullest fruition."

CHILDLESS
WIVES ARE
The CAUSE
Or GREAT MANY DIVORCES
Puritan Ideas as to MOdesty
at Bottom

Kansas City, Mo-, June 5-After i
close study of the subject for the six
months he has been in office, w. w.
Wright, divorce proctor for the Circuit
Court. believes he has found the un-
deriving cause of nine-tenths of the
marital disasters. Chiefly it is the re-
fusaI of the wife to bear children. To
some extent it is the result of the at
tempt to mate persons who are phys
ically antagonistic.
Wrights position is unique. When
the Circuit Judges discovered that
Kansas City was being made a Mecca
for the matrimonially dissatisfied FROM
all over the country and that the di-
yorce business was becoming scan
dial, the judges consulted and apoint-
ed Wright divorce proctor, with full
Iower to investigate all divorce cases
brought before the courts.
The result has been to decrease the
lumber of divorces by one-half,
Wright has six volunteer assistants,
and every divorce case filed is subject
to the closest investigation. The re-
suit of these investigations summed
up by Wright is that the root of the
divorce problem is the refusal of the
wife to take upon herself the respon-
sibilities of motherhood.
He had found that most men desire
children and that the thwarting Of
this desire leads to the development
Of temperamental condition in hus-
mand and wife which makes happy
marriage impossible.
AS long as false modesty and pres
ent day ideas of rearing children in
ignorance Of vital problems continues
To be practiced there is no hope OF
minimizing the divorce evil" Wright
says unless there can be, as l rec
Cmmend, frank discussion between
nance and tiancee on the problems
ana responsibilities of married life
II man desires children, why should
not he discuss the matter with the
one whom he expects to become the
mother Of them? The trouble is, our
PWltanjcal conventions have made
marriage nothing less than a gamble

Bold Attempt to Rob Train.

Cedar Rapids, Feb. 21-Special:
Engineer d. Mansfield, of Clinton, was
shot through the arm as he was run
ming his Chicago & Northwestern
train through volley of bullets from
masked robbers at Bertram, eight
miles east of here. The express car
contained a large quantity of bar sill
yer and bar gold. The train left Chi
CagO last night and was due here at
2:30 this morning. AS the train ap-.
preached Bertram the engine slowed
down to fifteen miles an hour because
of the construction of a new bridge
at that point. Evidently the bandits
knew of this, for one of them with a
red lantern at the side of thetrack
signaled the train to stop. Engineer
Mansfield said he suddenly suspicion

GIRL FOUND MURDERED
MYSTERY IN DEATH OF WEALTHY
KANSAS WOMAN.
Was Beneficiary Of viii Of Late Fos-
ter Father-Poiice Have No
Clue to Slayer.

Hutchinson, Kan, Feb. 21.-Dead in
the home of the wealthy physician
who adopted her, and where many
spiritualistic meetings have been
held, the body of Edna Nelson, twenty
years old, was found with a bullet
wound in the back of her head.
She had been made the principal
beneficiary under the will of the late
physician, DR.. e. Il. fstghardson.
The wound was of such character
that it would have been impossible for
the girl to have shot herself. The po-
lice have not a single clue to the
slayer.
Doctor Richardson was known to
have been wealthy man. Although
his will has not been opened, Edna
Nelson, because of his devotion to
her, was undoubtedly the principal
heir. The girl was a spiritualist, as
was the doctors sister, Effie Richard
son. Miss Effie had been the doctors
housekeeper.
Miss Nelson was found on the bed
of her own room, the doors had been
locked, evidently by her, and the win
dows were down and fastened. Her
hands were folded across her breast
and the revolver, from which two bull
lets had been fired, was lying on her
right arm with the barrel pointing
downward. The revolver used was an
old style weapon anT had belonged to
the dead doctor.
Search for the second bullet failed
to find trace Of it. How the slayer en-
tered the house without awakening
the dog and the girls foster sister,
who sleeps on the first floor, and how
the slayer got out of the locked room
is furnishing much material for the
tongues of the superstitious who have
held the Richardson home in awe.
That robbery was not attempted is
the positive declaration of Fife Rich
ardson. Nothing was missed from the
house.

sign a decree granting Upton Sinclair,

but Justice Newberger holds that the

Kemp are not sufficient evidence of
the improper acts alleged in the com
