HUSBANDS, PLEASE READ

This week we are going to talk
to the husbands who, perhaps do
not realize that sunshiny hus-
band makes merry, happy, beau
tiful home, worth working for. If
man is breezy, CHEEKY, consider
ate and sympathetic, his wife sings
in her heart over her buildings and
her mending basket, counts the
hours until he returns when alb
sent and renews her youth in the
security she feels in his approba-
ton and appreciation. You may
think it weak and childish, if you
please, but it is the admired wife
who hears the words of praise,
and who receives smiles of common
dation, who is capable, and a mo-
del homekeeper.
We have seen a timid, meek and
self-distrusting little body fairly
bloom into strong, Self-reliant wo-
manhood under the tonic of her hus-
bands companionship who really got
out of his way to find occasion for
showing her how fully he trusted
her judgment, and how tenderly
he deferred to her opinion.
In home life there should, be no
jar and no division of interest. The
husband and the wife are each the
complement of the other, and it is
just as much his duty to be cheer
full as it is hers to to be patient;
just as much his right to bring JOY
into the door as it is hers to gar
nish the pleasant interior. A fam
lily where the daily walk of the faith.
er makes life festival of joy and
cheer is filled with something like
heavenly benediction.
Know, then husbands, that if
your home is not an illumination to
your life, place of rest and a hav-
en- of refuge, in ninety-nine cases
out of every hundred some of the
blame at least rests with your
selves. a

COMMITTEE ON CLAIMS.
Hearing, Tuesday Afternoon, for Sew
en- Oxford County Towns.

The committee on claims held n
meeting, nj > p. NJ. Tuesday. in the
assessors office to give a public hear
ing fer oxford county on resolves for
Paris. Woodstock. Peru, oxford, Nor
way, Mexico and Stonehan.
The total of the claims is S2600.S0, be-
ing divided as follows: Paris, s1s5. 95:
Woodstock, SieS.99: Peru. s219; oxford.
s42.26; Norway. s32 Mexico, s1o7O.s5;
Stoneham. s59175.
One notable feature was the fact
that the itemized bills We're missing in
the majority of cases. though the
plaintiffs believed these could be Sc
cured in every case and placed before
the committee. Sen Colby stated this
formality would be required by the
committee and the itemizea lists would
be awaited. s4a za4
All the claims are announced as
those for alien paurar expense. which
for some technical reasons had not
been approved by the Governor and

Tariff Hearings on Chemicals
Ended--Spices Are Taken Up.

Washington. Jan. THE chemical
schedule of the revised tariff legisla-
ton to be enacted by the coming
extra session of Congress was closed
extra session of Congress was closed
today, So far as public hearings are
concerned. The indications are that
the Democratic majority of the House
committee on ways and means, will
sustain almost in all terms its chemi
cal schedule as embodied in the separ
ate bill that passed both houses
though vetoed
II is possible there may be some
modification of the rates on spices
which several members of the COM
mittee favor. but this is uncertain.
Democratic and Republican members
alike are expecting the schedule to
emerge from committee in almost the
Identical form in which it was put up
to The last session of Congress, and the
President.
The only indication of a possible
Change in the schedule during the
long testimony, TO-DAY. was while w.
G. Gibson New York lawyer, was

arguing for a 80 per cent. duty on
spices and on all luxuries.
Wouldn't it tend to cut off impor-
tations If we put a higher duty on
spices?' asked Chairman Underwood.
No. replied the witness, who added
that spices, running from to IS cents
a pound, were not expensive. Mr.. Glib
son wanted to put cod liver oil on the
free list because of its medicinal value
to rickety and decrepit children. He
elassed spices as Injuries traeeable TO
ancient syharitic and voluptuous con-
ditions in the south of Italy. No
mother said he, gives her child
spices nor does anyone take them from
real liking
The chemical schedule covers prod
uets all the way from acid to zinc, and
did not evoke as strong an opposition
as is expected by the committee to be
aimed at several of the other schedules
in the series of hearings that will
stretch along to Jan. 81, after which
the committee will wrestle with the
whole tariff question with a view to
readiness for action at the coming
extra session.

discussion Of the Aegean islands. They
examined long detailed memorandum
presented by the Greek Premier NJ.

the racial, historical, geographical and
cultural reasons in favor of the an

Furthermore, he pointed out, Greece

colors are now flying over all the is
lands except those temporarily oech-
