For years some of the names of our
many heroes, dead and living, have been
retained by their descendants on the long
roll of the army, and from the makeup
of it today the fact may be perpetuated.
One of the ranking general officers in
the service said the other day that the
mere relation of these names in the serv-
ice had a most beneficial effect, in that
the name alone was a constant reminder
of faithful and distinguished service, of
gallantry in action, of esprit de corps,
etc.
In nearly every arm Of the service, in
nearly every regiment Of cavalry or in
fantry, one may see name which has
helped to make American history bril-
liant. That history repeats itself remains
to be seen, but there Is no doubt that
all of these sons stand ready to repeat
deeds. of valor as glorious as those Of
their famous fathers. ...-....
The name of Ulysses s. Grant is being
perpetuated in the army by his grandson,

these women is innocent, and that your
wife has no right to object, because people
gossip about your goings on?
Would you think it right for your wife
to humiliate you by acting in such a
way that scandal was busy with her
name? Would you think her justified
in so doing, no matter how clear hel
conscience was? Believe me, Mr., Much.
Abused-Man, what is sauce for the goose
is sauce for the gander, and the Golden
Rule is a double-actioned one that works
both ways.
When you think of your wife doing
her duty by you, and living up to the
responsibilities she undertook when she
married you, you haven't any large, life
sized picture of her running. around to
theaters and restaurants, and automobil-
ing with other men while you stay at
home and take care of the children. Nor
4 have you, any vision Of a gay lady. who
1 furnishes talk for neighborhood, sit
ting as your model of dutiful wife.
1 Why is it any more your ,wife's duty
to be faithful to you than it Is yours to
be faithful to her? Why should she be
called Jealous crank for objecting to
your doing the very things that you
would divorce her for doing?
AS for your cheerful theory that you
fulfill your obligations as a. husband
+, when you support her get that out of
your head, because you don't support her
If there's any money obligation between
You, you're in debt to her. If the woman
| who makes comfortable home for a
man, who bears and rears his children,
who maintains his social position, and
who works about eighteen hours day
for him, doesn't earn her board and
clothes, heaven knows who does.
Any ablebodied woman of fair intelli-
gence can support herself in these days.
and she seldom does IT.. When a woman
marries she does so in the fond belief
that, In return for all she gives up for
man, he is going to give her his love
and companionship, and at least try to
make her happy, and if he doesn't do this
he defaults on a debt of honor.
No woman would marry man if he
told her before marriage that he consid-
cred that a husbands sole duty towards
his wife consisted in providing her with
food and clothes. She would say:
Thank You, kind sir, but If that's your
platform excuse me. I can get an easier
job with less work and shorter hours and
a better pay envelope in any office than
you offer me as a wife" Nor would any
man be able to lure blushing bride to
the altar If he told her beforehand that
he held that husband had a right to d.
vert imself as much as he pleased with
other ladies, and his wife was a mean,
selfish old thing to object.
When a man marries a woman he de-
liberately takes her happiness into his
keeping, and it is just as much his duty
to cherish her peace of mind as it Is to
provide her with bodily comforts. 1t is
no worse for man to starve and beat
his wife, and force her to dress in rags
than it is to neglect her so that she goes
hungry hearted, and to stab and wound
her with jealousy, and to humiliate her
by his attentions to other women.
The answer to the question: what is
a husbands dut yto his wife?55 is dead
easy 1t is just the same as her duty to
him.

The Bathing Girl of Today
By MARGARET HUBBARD AVER.

By MARGARET HUBBARD AVER.
The newest thing is wading suit. It's
the aristrocratic cousin to the bathing
suit and never goes near the water"
1t can be made Of anything you like
from brocade to ordinary plain silk, but,
of course. silk 1t must be, and there must
be all kinds Of pretty things to 50 with
reticules and even lunch baskets, made
or trimmed with the same kind of ma
terial as the wading suit.
But why wadng suit? Because every
cne can wade, dear reader, and 1t doesn't
spoil ones beautiful suit, or get one s
hair out of crimp or make one look for
lorn and bedraggled as does swimming In
the wet wet water.
Then let me whisper 1t to you, wading
is done by our most exclusive set, so. Of
course, 1t had the stamp of approval
aside from the example set by the major
general daughters in THE Pirates Of
Penzance." But If you think wading Is
just simple Gilbertian thing where you
take off your stockings and saunter into
the waves up to your apkles, you are
mistaken. Wading necessitates the

equally handsome. You must wade In
silk stockings and canvas or satin shoes,
with parasol held over your head to
protect you from the sun, and your
handkerchief, mirror and powder rag in
silk bag dangling from your waist and
your well-dressed and marcelled hair
showing from under the prettiest cap in
the world.
You step into the water uttering ap-
propriate cries of "oh, how cold" ETC.,
and the entire beach and all the people
on. the pier look on in admiring astonish-
ment at your perfectly fitting costume
and your expensiyely corseted figure.
Lest I forget to describe the newest
wading costumes to you-this one is OF
