But She Doesn't
Tell Him the Truth.

Bat she doesn't tell him the truth
On the contrary, she lies IN hin,
about how grand and noble and
smart and big he is, and how gen.
erous she thinks he is to give her a
dress, and how lucky she is n bsvo
such a husband. And as she fin.
ishes she says to herself: "Ther.
you made me do It. And the sin,
on your soul, not mine"
Nor does she dare tell him the
truth about how tired and bored
she gets of his society, and of how
glad she is to go away in the sum-
mer and leave him, and she mites
him for how he's going to miss
her and the children, and then both
of them wonder if the other is az
big fibber as he or she is.
And so it goes, and the more
gifted the romancer the more es-
teemed is he or she as husband or
wife, for truth has no place in the
domestic circle. It is ever the most
unweIcome guest, and the minute
that husband and wife begin tell
ing each other their real opinions
and the unadorned facts in the case
they are headed TOR the divorce

.THEY cry for bread, they cry for
bread
When Winter walls them
round.
The city sees her hungered dead
Borne to the burial ground.
They look in wonder on world
That can not give them food;
They sleep in icy alleys, curled
Like beasts within a wood
! cry for men, l cry for men
When rolls the harvest vain
And far upon my fields again
Waves bright the ripened grain.
I look in wonder on the ways
OF them that can not give
The little labor of few days
To let their children live.
They cry for work, they cry for
work
Within the smothered town,
Where miseries of ages lurk
To crush and cast them down.
cry for aid, | cry for aid,
| call for them to come
And CLEAN the riches God has laid
Upon my prairie home
And l win give them life and heart,

u LII husbands and wives lie to
~ each other. Otherwise Reno
would be the largest city on
the map, 1t is the more or less
white, or gray, or black fib that
makes domestic life tolerable.
Probably every married couple
regrets this necessity of dallying
with the truth and of diluting it
down to the degree that makes it
sit comfortably on the family
stomach. Certainly 1T is not the
high ideal with which a bridal pair
start out They are strong for We
racity and perfect frankness. but
after one or two run-ins with the
plain. blunt facts they go quietly
and secretly and unostentatiously
off and qualify for membership in
the Ananias ana Sapphire clubs,
for they perceive that speaking the
truth Is a luxury that we can in
dulge in freely only with our enc
mics, and occasionally with a
friend, but never. never with our
husbands or wives.
Unless, of course, you are one OF
those born fighters who are never
happy except when he or she is in a
scrap. And most of us are poor
spirited creatures who like some
degree of peace at home-which Is
not compatible with too much
truth
AS a matter of fact, neither hus-
bands nor wives will endure the
truth. Each forces the other to lie.
Each is actually driven into pre-
varication when he or she would
much rather tell the truth.

of taking her meals in the back

of her husband to exchange ideas

shows that to change conditions

:: a GREAT EMPEROR ::

A Wonder7uI Aound Of Earth Built by Tiny Insects

TIME late emperor of Japan has
been called the kaiser of the
East. The story of Japan dur
ing his reign Is the story of a
country that has become modern
lied at a remarkably rapid rate.
a few years ago Japan was land
of feudalism today it stands for
all that is included under up-to-
date civilization.
The Emperor Mutsuhito was
called to the throne when he was
fifteen years OF age, in February,
1867. Before Mutsuhito's time the
emperors of Japan were figure
heads In 1889 he brought about
the end of the monarchy and gave
to his people a constitution. Thus,
he became a ruler in the truest
sense.
One of the first forward steps OF
the emperor was to grant audiences
to the ambassadors of foreign ma
tions. This had never before been
done
Next he undertook to bring his
country into a single unit of polit-
ical strength The two provinces
of japan were united, and Toxic
was made the capital. This was
not accomplished by merely raising
the royal hand and saying, Let it
be done" 1t created a rebellion,
and the emperor's enemies were
powerful. But he skillfully brought
order out of confusion. and instead
of beheading those who had OPP
posed him. Mutsuhito promoted
many of them to offices of response
bility.
Educational Reforms.
With these preliminary steps
taken, the emperor sent represen-
tatives to all foreign courts, and
established consulates. Then the
material welfare of the country be-
gan to take its place Where once
only feudal rights were recognized
men began to think in terms Of
telephones. dockyards, m o d ern
transportation. telegraph. electric
power and the like. Large numbers
of Japanese were sent to foreign
countries to get the new learning
and bring it back TO Japan. Inst-
buttons for educational purposes
were increased at home, and toll
erance toward all religious creeds
was established.
Even with all this accomplished,
there was sull much to be done.
The emperor is not subject to the
laws of marriage, but this did not
throw his mind out Of focus. His
wife, the first empress Of Japan,
was his conddanto and companion
