Perrysburg journal. (Perrysburg, Wood Co., O. [Ohio]) 186?-1965, 1913-08-01

A young Louisvillian who was mar
ried in Indiana to a girl fifteen years
old is charged with subordination
of perjury and pleads insanity. Why
not? Pope declares love "the sole
disease thou canst not cure" and OF
course, he did not mean to call it a
physical ailment. Theocritus asserted
that there was no remedy for 1t, eth
er salve or plaster" says the Louis
vile Courier-Journal. Scott spoke of
1t as a disorder when he said that
even ambition was no cure for it..
Rosalind told Orlando that man in
love might be readily picked out in a
crowd because his hose would be un-
gartered, his bonnet unbranded, hiB
sleeve unbuttoned, his shoe united
and everything about him awry, and
carelessness in the arrangement of
clothing is one of the well recognized
symptoms of paresis. Literature bris-
ties with expert opinion tending to es-
tablish the insanity of lovers. And
great literature is great literature be-
cause it is luminous with truth.

RUBBER solEp SHOES.

/ Low brown shoes, athletic shoes,
shoes with rubber soles and no heels
seem to be the fashionable footwear
this spring for that section of our
young womanhood which last year dis
figured It's technically trim ankles
with high, buttoned, whitewashed
boots. 1t is quite an improvement. 1t
looks better and it is better from
Ihygienic standpoint. High French
heels are never healthful. But 1t is
mighty illogical. Heretofore when a
young girl got on the car wearing ten
mis- shoes a little Sherlock Holmes
work permitted the deduction that she
was going to play tennis. But the
weakness of the detective system that
used to overawe poor Doc Watson is
well proved by the fact that the hun
dreds of tennis shoes that now get
on the cars in the morning rush have
nothing to do with tennis at all. They
are Office shoes, downtown shoes. pa
rading shoes-anything but their orig
inal denominations. The click, click,
click of the high heel used to be the
honk honk of fashion, so to speak.
But the muffler is on now. Our young
womanhood bowls noiselessly along on
sneakers"

WRESTLING.

Wrestling is the most scientific and
strenuous of indoor sports. Ours is an
age when skill and supreme effort are
valued as seldom before. Yet wrest-
ling sinks lower in public favor year
by year. Why? The answer is clear
to all who will read the report of a
recent match in this city. "Grunt
with pain" Much distress" "a
Furnishing body lock" Great agony"
"Writhed in agaony" There are some
of the expressions sprinkled down the
page, and they do not seem too strong.
The first fall was not properly a fall
at all; one of the contestants had Sc
cured a hold causing such frightful
pain that the other had to yield. In
the second bout the victor made an,
other attack on his opponents sore
leg and kept twisting it until the
weaker man went down. The time
consumed in these gentle operations
was 53 minutes for the first fall
and 80 minutes for the second. An
hour and half watching men torture
each other. Small wonder the crowd
Kissed and "boohed." Wrestling will
win no great favor from modern
community until 1t becomes a little
more lively and good deal less
brutal.

EARTHwoRM IN EGYPT.

The fertility of the valley of the
White Nile is renowned. British scien-
tific surveyors report that its remark
able productiveness is due in large
part to the diligence of earthworms,
which have been digging it for thou
sands of years. Observations are
recorded showing that during the ac
tive six months of each year the cast
ings of the worms brought to the sur
face there amount to about 100000
pounds an acre. Spread out evenly
this would make an -appreciable an
nual layer. Darwin estimated that
the castings of five years in England
would cover the whole kingdom with
a layer of new earth an inch thick. In
the Nile valley the layer would doubt
less be thicker were the worms equal
ly numerous and busy, as appears to
be the case, because the proportion
of nonarable land there is much less
than in the British isles. 1t must be
remembered also, that in addition to
the beneficial service of stirring up
the soil, admitting air and water more
easily and bringing deep deposits to
the surface, there is constant fertili-
zation effected by the vegetable mat
ter dragged into their burrows by the
worms, much of which is left to decay
where it will do the most good.

Lord Methuen, the British field
marshal, delivered IN London recently
an adddess against the use of tobacco
by women. In the course of his re-
marks he expressed the opinion that
the force Of bad example is what
makes women smoke-that "one girl
smokes because she sees her mother
smoking" In the old times American
girls stopped smoking because they
saw their mothers smoking. That was
because the mothers who smoked in
the old days usually puffed at clay
pipe. The cigarette looks daintier;
but the large body of smoking opinion
would condemn the cigarette as essen
TALLY dirtier and more deleterious
than the clay pipe.

They were short-sighted race
those old masters of painting and
other arts. They died too soon. Stra'
divarius sold violins for SIS or $40
that would have brought him thou,
sands had he waited long enough. Pic,
lures that yielded but small amounts
to the old Italians who painted them
can now be bought only by million,
aires. Even the masters Of the early
English school, that of Reynolds and
Gainsborough and Romney, showed
the same lack Of economy in not living
long enough. In a great London auc-
tion room on Friday a portrait by
Romney sold for $206,S75. In his life
time Romney charged from SIPS for
a portrait rs by 80 inches to $4OO for
full-length portrait 81 by SO inches.
Probably Fridays price was record
one for Romney, but in recent years
the market value of good whole
length has ranged from $4,000 to
$125,O00. But If they didn't get out Of
their work the prices that we moderns
are willing to pay for it, at least they
got the glory out of it. They put
something into their pictures and vio-
Inns and other wares that gave them
life for ceneuries. How many produc-
tions of the age of Romney have in

From a Washington department
store comes the recital that the presi-
dents daughters were there looking
at gowns recently, and were informed
that a charge of two dollars was made
for alterations; whereupon one Of
them responded, "Oh, we can mako
any necessary alterations at home;
we know how to sew" The accom-
piishment Is one that should be pos
sessed by every woman in the land,
and the fact that it Is taught In the
public schools at the present time
shows that there is one respect at
least in which public school authori-
ties respond to the practical need Of
the public.

British mothers that "a dinner well

The lady's maids of Chicago are
about to form union and strike
against some grievances, which Ihany
sympathizers will regard as very.
real. They are rebelling against in.
terminable hooking up of gowns, late,
hours and dog nursing. A domestic
service union, with strikes on one
side and indignant but helpless mis-
tresses on the other, will add vastly

the portion of the national contin-
gents who will not be requisitioned
to do the hooking up and wash the
