it go at that. He knows it's no use
trying to hide the fact.
Men and women have lied to each
other SO much, They still do, but
there's a change working. It's the
leaven Of woman's knowledge, her de-
mand to be Shown" and her grow
ing honesty. She is trying to force
honesty toward herself, though it's a
hard fight against practice and tradi-
ton.
Just as we are not lying to chill
dren as much as parents did in olden
times in order to awe them into good
ness. or brighten them from badness,
or keep them from annoying us or
discovering our own delinquencies, or
just for the joy Of amazing them in
their innocence and ignorance-just in
that degree women are demanding
that masculinity shall come down
from its perch and speak the truth.
And masculinity might just as
well, because the modern woman
knows things for herself and is not
prone to hide that knowledge. She
no longer tries to deceive herself into
credulity, nor to deceive the man into
thinking her credulous. She's tried
that and found it doesn't work out
right.
The old-fashioned trusting woman
Is becoming as obsolete as Chaucer's
vocabulary. She was very sweet
while she lasted. It's too bad that
she couldn't last. But, like all good
, things, she was worked to death and
nobody is to blame. but that same mas
culinity which took advantage of her
infinite trust and amused itself upon
) her credulity.
Trust is such a beautiful thing-the
trust OF woman in man, of man
in a woman, of a little child In its
parents, that 1t is pity to destroy It
Every woman wishes to trust i'm
plicitly in the man who has found his
way to her heart Even when she
knows that he is deceiving her, she
at first makes every excuse for him
She will not insult him by permitting
! herself to doubt him But the time
invariably comes when thinking and
= a self-respecting woman as most
!. women are nowadays-asks for the
) truth and will not be satisfied with
out It.
And is there anything finer than the
t congeniality of two people who trust
!. each other? Is there any rarer gift
s to be treasured, than the full faith O,
I woman in man? And doesn't II
q seem that when a man has once wor
( such faith, he would even resist the
$ temptation of lying, to keep ties
S pecially when he knows the woman IL

They meet again, marry, and are ra-
dainty happy until they are separated

Kansas Is noted as a state in which
reforms are constantly tried out and
this latest venture has all the ear
marks Of an innovation that will prove
eficacious in a quarter that has long
needed reform. Marriage Is more
than a contract-it is a status con-
dition and not a theory-and in this
country in particular, it is entirely too
easy to enter into the relation.
Stricter supervision of marriages
will tend to simplify the divorce prob
