so irresistible as the love or a man for
wife whom he loves. No money is spent
with so much joy as the money that goes
to her and the children. Happy, a thou
sand-fold happy, is that man whose wife
loves him too much topermit him to be
foolish when he should be WISE who is so
judicial In her temperament, so prudent
in her domestic economy, as to add her
decisive voice to the months allowance,
and so brave to insist that the expen-
diture must always be at least a little
less than the income. She ought to say:
Il am not seeking or consenting TO sup
port. There will be two of us. IL 1 can
not earn as much as you, I can save more
We win plan together. will be the home
side of your life
There is division somewhere between
expenditures that are wise and those
which are foolish. Each individual must
discover that line for himself
Whatever may be said of the drink
habit there is certainly a point where 1t
becomes injurious. The same is true Of
smoking, and of eating also
Amusements swallow up millions an
nually. few afford pleasurable enter
tainment and mental and physical relaxa-
tion. The great majority of them are
vapid, inane and silly entailing a waste of
time and money.
Fashion in its ever-changing forms ex-
ats ito SVStis tOii llOifl lie purses OF men
and women. Vanity in endless varieties
demands larger and larger share of our
earnings each year
We're 1t possible to divert the food of
wasteful and harmful expenditures into
channels of legitimate productive indus
try-to the furnishing of comfortable
homes, the production of food and cloth
ing-we should hear less of the high cost
of living and there would be less pow
erty.
But 1t seems impractcable by legisla.
tion or by any sudden revamping of
human nature to make the mass of men
spend money wisely instead of foolishly.
Yet each individual can for himself i'm
mediately examine his expenditures, slass-
flying those that minister to his real well
fare and those which do not. BY dimin-
ishing the latter, or by cutting them off
altogether. he will be most sure of always
having at his command the means Of
satisfying his actual needs and of expend-
ing his money in the manner best ea1cu-
lated to the uplifting of himself and of
others.

WOULD DISCOURAGE
AGITATION OF THE
MEXICAN PROBLEM
CONTINUED from Page One)


the Senate committee, the admnistra-
tion is strongly desirous not to agi-
tate the situation further especially
since Mr.. Wilson is not likely to go
back to Mexico as the American ann
bassador.
News was scant In Mexican circles
about the progress of the peace sug-
gestions that are passing to and fro
between some of the leaders of the
two factions in Mexico. The most sig
nihcant development was the frequent
use of the name of Miguel Covarru-
bias at present Mexican minister to
Russia, for provisional president. Gov
arrubias is an appointee of the Huerta
administration, but is not affiliated
with any faction in Mexico. He would
satisfy the constitutionalists, who say
their only desire is to have a provi-
sional President chosen to succeed
Huerta, who would conduct a free and
honest election.
