rs 1t necessary to beat your wife?
Yes, and no! 1t all depends on
whom you ask to answer the ques-
ton
Mrs. Howard Archibald Samuels,
secretary Of the Household Felicity
League. admits that certain benefits
may be derived from occasionally
chastising your spouse.
Miss Rosalie Gardner Jones, known
as General Rosalie, the particularly
to Albany Washington and various
points via the foot route, takes the
opposite view and maintains that no
true suffragist will stand by and let
her husband be the one to do the
beating.
The question arose all because DR..
William F, Waugh OF Chicago dean OF
the Bennett Medical college and chief
surgeon of the Jefferson Park hos
pital, came out in favor of wife beat
ing as a proper and wholesome disci-
pline. But, then DR.. Waugh is not
married.
What DR.. Waugh Advocates.
Among other interesting statements
on the matter he made the following
declarations:
When you find your mate, rule
her; she expects you to be head of
the house.
When you have her, live for her;
she demands it,
When she awakens your jealousy,
beat her; she needs It."
Then the doctor went on to say that
the most devoted wives in the world
are those who fear their husbands.
Such wives sit up nights trying to de-
wise plans to please their masculine
lord and win their appreciation. And
take 1t from DIR. Waugh, the approba-
ton of said lords Is some tid-bit worth
striving for
IT'S this way" the doctor goes on
Through their lack of beatings, some
women escape from their husbands
control and are incapable Of con-
trolling themselves. They soon find by
the absence OF beatings that their
husbands are not their masters.
Therefore they seek other masters,
and their contempt for their husbands
has reached it's limit. Once a wife
holds her husband in contempt, not
even beatings will win him back into
her respect, for then she will know
that he Is merely making a bluff, and
is not really the masterful being she

Joke" Says General Jones.
General Rosalie Jones threw up her
hands in CONSERVATION and indigna-
ton when Dr. Waughs remarks were
called to her attention.
Equal suffrage went into effect
July l." she cried, He is having his
last inning, for with women nearing
their rightful position in the world,
ne knows 1t will be his last chance.
DIR. Waugh knows who will hold the
master hand when we get the ballot
in his state, and this outburst of his
is merely the feeble wall of an en-
vious old bachelor because some one
but himself is in for a bit Of consider
alton from now on.
NO doubt DR. Waugh is right. in
some respects said Mrs. Samuels.
who is an anti-suffragist. 1t is we'll
known that women love best the men
who are somewhat cruel to them. and
| presume DR.. Waugh's statement Is
n lust and proper warning against
what will follow the granting of the
vote to women in Illinois"
Fortunately, Miss Jones and Mrs.
Samuels were not mutually present
when these statements were made, so
not one thing happened.
Courdn't Do II, She Says.
You see." Miss Resale went on,
lit would be the greatest joke in the
world for a man TO try to beat a
suffrage wife. Just imagine, for in
stance. an ordinary man trying to
chastise-well, it wouldn't be fair to
mention any names. But you know
some of our energetic suffragists in
the city. Why, l wonder what would
happen to him." and General Jones
laughed her merriest.
II imagine DR., Waugh hasn't much
20 occupy his time when he wastes
Ct advising men TO whip their devot-
sd partners in life. After few more
wears of suffrage there won't be much
room for man of DR. Waugh's type
anyway"
But to analyZe his statements in
detail. Miss jones'
