RAMS Query Department,

To the Editor: / am a married
man with swivel-faced wife who
refuses to sew buttons on my pants.
Does this constitute legal grounds
for divorce? Jasper.
Of course it does, Jasper. 1t is a
penitentiary offense for wife to
allow her husband to mingle in So
ciety with his pants hooked to his
shirt with a broken match. The
courts argue that some day the match
might slip, as in the case of Duffer
vs.. Duffer (99th Iowa, p. 252) when
the plaintiff broke up a social gath
ering before he had time to retire
to the dressing room. If we had a
wife who consumed her waking hours
in chasing powder puff over her
mug and drying out a tar shampoo
over the cook stove, while allowing
us to go about in narrowing state
of suspense for fear that we might
lose coupling pin, we would take
her upon our knee, in reverse, and
spank sense of wifely duty into
her feeble brain. There is nothing
in the marriage contract which says
that husband is obliged to make
his toilet with ten-penny nails and a
quill toothpick. What this world
needs is more husbands with the
courage of bull pup and fists like a
ham. We judge from your letter,
Jasper, that you are mealy-mouth-
ed mutt with the manly convictions
of wienerwurst, hence you are not
entitled to sympathy. The thing for
you to do is to rise up some morn
ing and throw your wife through the
pantry window a couple of times,
merely in order to assert your
authority.
p. S. Be sure to get in the first
blow.

Yes, indeed, and it is a most

cheap joke on the fathers part,
sighed the new neighbor. when
the child is naughty he is likely to

TEMpERs AND SOME COMMENTS
Cheerfulness is COnsumatiOn De-
vOutly to be Wished and
Sought For.

Tempers are queer things anyway.
We scrap and growl and scold and
fume and fret for no cause under the
sun that we know of and when trou-
BILE really comes, We smile and take
it as unconcernedly as though it was
the most common place affair. We
will sulk for a week over a slight
that was all in our imagination and
grow all the madden because we
know that the whole matter is an
invention of our own. The fact is
when we feel good, a cyclone can't
spoil our equanimity, but if we
chance to be out of sorts and have
the blues, we are going to get mad
and stay mad and if we don't find
any provocation we will make one
The man who gets the blues-and
who is there that doesn't get them?
is a most unfortunate creature
Ten minutes after the attack begins
he has concluded that he is the most
abused man on the face of the earth
Every person in town is working
against him-he knows it and there
is no use to deny the fact. If the
unfortunate man is married, he
wreaks his disgust upon his wife, the
baby and the COW.
Cheerfulness. How sweet in in,
fancy, how lovely in youth, how
sanity in old age. There are a few
noble natures whose very presence
carries sunshine with them where
ever they go; sunshine means pity
for the poor, sympathy for the suff
ering, help for the unfortunate, and
benignity toward ALL How such 9
face enlivens every face 1t meets, anG
carries into every company vivacity
and joy and gladness. But the scow
and frown, begotten in selfish
heart, and manifesting itself in daily
almost hourly fretfulness, complains
ing, fault finding, angry criticisms
spiteful comments, on the motives
and actions of others. How they
thin the cheek, shrivel the face, soul
and sadden the countenance! Nc
joy in the heart, nobility in the soul
no generosity in the nature; the
whole character as cold as an ice
burg and as hard as an Alpine rock

Money.

Telegraph-Herald Mrs. Beeckman
Lorillard, whose husband is multi
millionaire, hanged herself in a New
York hotel the other day.
William c. Seipp, a millionaire
Chicago brewer committed suicide in
Chicago Sunday.
If money could have bought happi-
ness for Mrs. Lorillard and William
S. Seipp they would have had hap
pineSs.
Money can't buy off the hounds of
retribution, nor absolve the flesh
from fatal disease.
1t cannot remove the cloud from
conscience, turn back the wheels OF
tine, nor recall the word that should
never nave been spoken.
The thing of greatest value in life
is peace, as the old know and the
young find out. And that peace one
pays for, as one pays for everything
one gets, whether of good or evil
and no one gets something for moth
inf, however strongly it may appear
that something may be had for moth
ing.
The price of peace is observance
of the Golden Rule. And observance
of this Rule calls for sacrifice.
Peace is dove that favors not the
castle of the rich more than the cot
tage of the poor. 1t goes where
dwell those who would rather be
wronged than do wrong; who would
rather forego the apparent gain fol
wrong doing than chance loss of the
reward of right doing.
Virtue moves in lowly ways, for
one of the attributes of virtue is hui
mility and humility shuns the gar.
ish.
Fools give over their lives to the
quest of money and in their age
count their lives i'll spent
The most remarkable feature OF
this remarkable age is the spectacle
presented by ulIra-rich men giving
frantically of their store back to
those from whom LEY took. immor-
ally when not unlawfully.
