TT you will think over the
women you know whose hus-
bands are crazy over them
and who are always telling what
my wife said" and my mother
thinks" you will have it borne in
upon your mind that every one Of
these women is a good -humored,
cheerful woman, whose laugh is
hung on a hair trigger, and not
one of them is conspicuously
good housekeeper. Indeed, some
of them are woefully slack house.
keepers, but the husband and the
children don't care if there is dust
on the upper right hand corner OF
the top pantry shelf and they
sometimes have to pin things to-
gether with safety pins because
a button is off. Mother is so jolly
and so ready to chime in with
any youthful plan.
Wife's bills are not cut down to
the quick, and her cooking isn't
all that q fastidious palate could
desire, but she is always there
with the welcoming smile, and
she's always so satisfied and such
q, good fellow and so ready to see
a mans point of view, and, Lord,
when you think of that and the
kind of wife some men have
had wished on them! What's q
tough steak to tough disposl-
ton? What's watery potatoes to
a weeping woman who is always
in the doleful dumps?
That's about the way ones hus-
band and ones children argue.
It's about the way the matter
strikes most of US, because we
are not really so material, after
all. We care more for the spirit
than we do for the body, and the
people we love best and enjoy
most are not those who look after
our physical comfort. It Is those
who minister to our spiritual we'll
being. Any OF us would rather
be fed on tender, sweet, CHEEKY
companionship than on the best
cake that was ever concocted.

made out of eggs and -four and
sugar.
1t is better for a woman to neg,
lect her house than to neglect
being with her husband and chill

them palmer food and more of her
society. It Is better for her to
leave the kitchen sink unscrubbed
than to refuse the chii6ren's fnvt-
tations to go off to the park with
them. 1t Is better for her to put
fewer scallops on her girls petit
coats than 1t Is for her to be so
much engrossed with making
their clothes she has no leisure to
devote to making their charae-
ters.
Therefore, when a woman finds
out that she's so busy with her
domestic affairs that she hasn't
any time for anything else, and
when she realizes that she's 80
tired and cross after her days
homework that she can't laugh
the sensible thing is to cut down
the housework until she gets it to
the place where she can look
pleasant and act pleasant. That's
the important thing.
And men make exactly the same
mistake. Many a man Is go eager
and intent on making money for
his family that he leaves himself
no time in which to be a com
panion to his wife and children,
and he comes home so deadly
tired from his days work that
he's as cross as 8 HEADED
bear.
The money that such a man
makes brings as little happiness
to his family as does the expert
housekeeping of such a woman.
Fathers and mothers and hus-
bands and wives owe the duty OF
cheerfulnesE and good humor and
pleasantness to their families az
well as that of providing for their
physical wants, and If they must
decide between the two, those
who devote themselves to pleas
antness choose the better part.

ter Of race Issue by a portion of the Japanese
press
As is clearly shown today in a statement from
the chairman of the license commission, Mr.. A.
=. Castle, the boards action cannot possibly be
construed as evidence Of opposition to any Jap.
anese business or businessmen The board as
early as last June decided that Honolulu has
enough wholesale liquor houses. At that time
the application of the two Japanese firms had
not been filed, though that of the predecessor of
one Of them had been properly rejected The APP
plication of the firm of Americans had been filed
two months before, and, moreover, it is for a
wholesale house outside of Honolulu Hence the
resolution of the board did not apply to this re-
quest
The boards decision against any more whole
sale houses in Honolulu at this time applies
alike to American and japanese applicants
and to applicants of any other nationality This
decision has nothing to do with race color, class
or condition. 1t was arrived at in the interests
Of the people of this city, and the board should
stand by it in spirit and letter.
For the Japanese papers to intimate that the,
Nipponese community will not take part in the
Midwinter Carnival because applications for
liquor licenses have been rejected is a stand byI
which little sympathy will be gained. It isl
straining the point. The license commission has
manifesty endeayored to be fair, and the present
board is carrying out the policy Of the previous
board, policy Of restriction which has been
plainly apparent for at least two years BY mo-
possible logic can the action of the board be in,
terpreted as a slap at the Japanese business
community
We believe that with a little further inEesti-
CATION Of the circumstances, the Japanese Ell,
tors viii reach this same conclusion.

CHICAGO-Miss Marie Collier, who
disappeared Friday, leaving a note
saying that she had been ostracized
by society because she formerly was
a nurse in leper colony, returned
today.
She asserted that the unfounded re-
ports that she was suffering from lep-
rosy, causing her friends to forsake
her, had SO discouraged her that she
had determined to shoot herself. She
said that Miss A. Benjamin of Mil
waukee, an acquaintance, had persu.
AIDED her not to end her life. She
continued: ..... *
Il am an outcast to society. A num-
Der of doctors have made examina-
tons and reported that am free from
leprosy, but my friends refuse to be-
lieye It. If go to any gathering the
crowd near me dwindles until find
myself standing alone. ..-
'T have taken an inventory of my
life and I can see no ray of hope. I
sent letters today to a number of Iep-
er colonies in the United States ask
ing for a position as a nurse. In case
/ cannot get such employment in this
country, will go to an island neap
Canton, China, where nurses are need:

Miss Collier spent several months
at a 1eper colony near Tracadie, New

That is correct, and it is a point that should

NEW YORK, Oct. PA joint COM
mission of bishops, clergymen and
laymen of the Protestant Episcopal
church will take part in an interna-
tional congress on divorce at the Pam
ama-Pacific Exposition. Their APP
pointment was provided In resoiu-
ton adopted today by the house or
deputies OF the general convention at
st. Johns cathedral The resolution,
which was introduced by the Rev.
DR.. Charles ]. f. Wrigley of Brook
lyn, who declared that conditions in
this country are rapidly approaching
those in ancient Rome before its fall,
was as follows:
Resolved, That joint commission
of three bishops, three presbyters and
three laymen be appointed to cooper
ate with the international committee
on marriage and divorce In arranging
an international congress which is. to
be held in May, 1916, at the Panama
exposition, for the purpose of awak-
ening the conscience Of the American
people toward the. great evil OF di-
vorce and remarriage."

with the statement Of Bishop Caller

that the country was following the
footsteps of Rome with reference to
RIGHTEOUSNESS and coVetousness. Ar
thur s Browne of the diocese of
Washington opposed the proposition
of a national divorce law on the
ground that a state like North Caro-
lima, where divorces were not per-
mitted, or New York, where the law,
was equitable would be at a dis
advantage by a national divorce law
