TO MAKE WIFE HAPPY

A writer in the Brooklyn Daily
Eagle tells of millionaire in Seattle
by the name of L. c. Dillman who de-
votes himself to making his wife hap
Ply. Mr.. Dillman thinks that if more
care were taken by men Of the pres
ent day in view to making their wife
happy there would be less domestic
infelicity and therefore less talk OF
woman's rights and other present-day
issues. Mr.. Dillman says that all joy
is in living today, and not in the flu
ture. He says further that, no mat
ter what man earns, part of it should
be spent in making his,wife or himself
happy. eHe has laid down for himse f
and other men who want to do the
right thing, the following dulles:
Keep all promises made before AMI
after marriage.
Divide the newspaper and every
thing else.
Keep a joint bank account.
Go to your club no oftener than one
night a week.
Have no dogs or pets of any kind
Call her up on the telephone two or
three times a day.
When away from home write or
telephone every day.
Take her with you on business and
pleasure trips as much as possible.
Be more polite to her than to any
woman that you meet.
Remember that she likes flowers,
candy and books just as much after
marriage as beofre.
Make it a business to be comfort
able whenever she is happy.
Don't criticise her dress
Be a gentleman to all women, but
g husband to only one.
While casting about for a solution
OF the problem which now presents
itself in the sex unrest, why not sit
down and seriously think whether you
have made your wife or mother salts
fed with her lot, or whether you havA
sacrificed her to your unthinking sell
fishness.

DISGRACING THEIR WOMANHOOD

An incident of the Caminetti trial i'll
San Francisco last week makes one
wonder what sort of women and girls
are being raised there. The court
room has been crowded with them
during the trial and that of Diggs,
curiosity seemingly haven driven away
every bit of modesty these females may
have possessed. The judge knowing
what sort of testimony was to be
brought out, halted proceedings long
enough to warn the women thus: 81
see there are a great many women in
the courtroom, some of them very
young. l want to inform you there is
going to be testimony given in this
case that will not be pleasant for you
to hear, l warn you now that you stav
at the expense of your own sense of
delicacy."
The men in the courtroom eXpecte /
to see a general exodus of petticoats,
but not a woman or girl departed
each one of them sat there and eagerly
drank in all the salicious and disgust
ing testimony given by the Warning
ton girl.
| We doubt if any section can produce
a parrellel to this. The newspaper re-
ports of the matter show that not on4
of these females, old or young, had the
grace to blush or show by any other
symptom that they felt any embarrass-
ment.
Has the atmosphere of the Pacific
coast such deterioating effect on
feminine modesty? The revelations Of
graft and vice which have been made
in that section since Abe Ruef was
first exposed gives color to the BELIEF
that in no other part of the United
States is common honesty and the pur
ity of womanhood held in such light
esteem. The happenings in the Diggs-
Caminetti case indicate that the cor
rupting influences are reaching the
female portion Of the population.
1t is a sad spectacle, but that it will
contaminate other communities IS
doubtful There is no danger of it in
yading the South and other sections as
long as the ideals of the present dav
ere northumberland they seem in nc
danger of falling from their high stan
dard.-Nashville Tennessean.

UNITED STATES KEEPS OUT IN
DESIRABLE PLANTS

To protect fruit growers and farmers
of the United States the Federal Horti-
cultural Board of the Department OF
Agriculture has declared quarantine
against certain imported plants, fruit,
and seed. Some Of the most destruct
i've insect and plant diseases to which
our cultivated plants are subject have
been brought here, according to the
board, on stock imported from foreign
countries.
Certain fruits from the Hawaiian Is
lands have been refused admittance
from the fact that the Mediterranean
fruit fly, not heretofore widely prevail
ent in the United States, exists in
large numbers in the Territory OF
Hawaii. This insect attacks figs,
grapes, grape fruit, sweet lines, or
anges, peaches, and other fruits, as
well as certain vegetables, and would
be, if it were admitted to the United
States, menace to the fruit and veg
etable growers of the country.
Potatoes from Germany, Holland,
and the British Isles can not be i'm
ported into the United States as Ions
as the quarantine declared in Septem-
Der, 1912, exists against them. This
quarantine was decided upon to keep
out the deadly plant disease called
potato wart," scourge so danger
Gus that should it get into our potato
growing districts the effect upon the
industry would, according to plant pa
biologists, be little short of a national
calamity.
1lOuI ESypJ, IHuld anu Tic I1dW ddt~
ian Islands the United States has been
in the habit of importing quantities Of
cotton seed The discovery of the pink
boil worm in the cotton seed from
those countries h resulted in the
declaration of a quarantine.
On January 16, 1918, quarantine
was declared against oranges, sweet
lines, peaches and some other fruits
from Mexico. On February 10, 1913,
grape fruit was added to the list OF
prohibited fruits. The discovery of
the existence in that country of a
destructive insect known as the Mex
lean fruit fly" was responsible for
this action.
