of making you well.

IF YOU MUST FLIRT, FLIRT WITH
YOUR OWN WIFE, OR DON'T
MARRY.

He spoke of the affair as an inno-
cent little filtration"
Let's hope it was.
But the married man who had
been meeting the other mans wife
now lies beneath six feet of earth,
the other man is in Jail charged with
murder and two homes are shattered.
What business has a married man
to be induling in flirtations, innocent
or otherwise?
What right has a married woman
to be meeting in secret a man not her
husband?
Fools who play with fire must ex-
pect to be singed.
There's an easy way to avert such
heartrending tragedies. 1t is to
avoid the appearance of evil"
We live in an age when women
rightly seek freedom. Their lives
have been narrowed. They wish,
many of them, to take part in the
great activities outside the home.
More and more they are forced to
earn their living by work in compe-
tition with men. Whether we like
this or whether we do not, the fact
itself cannot be blinked and it is
compelling a readjustment of many
standards.
But some truths are fundamental
and unchanging throughout chang
ing human circumstances. One of
them is that no filtration between
married persons of opposite sex can
remain innocent. Though it be free
of the guilt which excites appeal to
the unwritten law it still is in hazard
of the basic sanctities of society; it
spreads the suspicion of evil though
it be in itself not utterly impure.
There ought to be a lesson for
many in that Kansas City tragedy. If
you must flirt, flirt with your own
wife or don't marry.

Yes, the presidents daughter, the
one who was married the other day,
confessed without shame that she
was &c years old. Seems as if many
of the girls are not marrying as
young as they once did. Seems as if
the average age of brides is increas-
ing. Time was when brides were
younger than the most of them now
are reported to be. With the one
exception of some fond and foolish
mothers who still believe in early
marriages the world seems to be pret-
ty well satisfied with the new condi-
ton.

1t is shown that the nations of the
world owe as much as forty-two bill
lions of dollars in national debts.
France leads, both in volume of in
debtedness and debt per capita. 1t
owes more than six times as much as
the federal government of the United
States, which latter has an outstand-
ing Il. o. u" that to the most of us
seems large. Russia stands second
in Indebtedness, England third, Italy
fourth and Spain fifth. In the list
we come thirteenth, which is not bad,
the marvellous resources of this coun-
try considered.

- -"
Those people Of Kansas are mot
making very loud complaints. for. all
the hard luck they are supposed to
have met by reason of drouth ani
hot winds last summer. They are
sending all over the country the
statement. THE 100000 people of
Kansas still have more money than
the 2,25O.000 people of Chicago"
When it comes to the real article of
nerve commend us to Kansas. Those
fellows don't seem to know when
their luck is hard. They are ready
for another bout with luck, even
when they are thrown down with the
last tussle.

college professor has discovered
that II varieties of common weeds
should be cultivated as food plants.
1t is a matter of common knowledge
that many weeds have long served
for food in green's" There is no
doubt but many weeds might be culti-
waited into edible plants, the same as
celery and tomatoes have been bred
up within the last fifty years, but
who is to undertake it? And, have
we not food plants enough already?
What need have we for any more
vegetables, anyway?

When one reads the patriotic ut
terances of Joseph H. Choate, COM
mending President Wilson for the
splendid moderation he is displaying
in the Mexican affair, he is about
certain to recall some crusty remarks
by former President Taft. 1t seems
strange that the latter cannot forget
for a moment that he is politician;
it sounds unjust to hear him CRITICS.
ing the man who beat him so unmer-
cifully at the polls year ago. There
is no way to avoid the conclusion
that Mr.. Taft is small man. his
monstrous bulk Notwithstanding. He
is narrow and the charge is not new
many said it of him when he was
PRESIDENT.

JUSTICE"

Four years ago a women fell into
a hole in the sidewalk of certain

$1,000. The common pleas court
awarded her the money.
The city appealed. The circuit
court found errors in the original
case and ordered a new trial.
The lawyers for the woman APP
pealed The supreme court sustained
the circuit court and ordered a new
trial.
The common pleas court took up
the case again. 1t found a verdict
for the woman of $500.
The city appealed. The court of
appeals sustained the common pleas
court.
The woman got $500 in place of
$4,000 after four years of litigation
and expenses.
Figure out how much she is in.
Can you?
Some days ago a dozen odd men
we're arrested for pinching goods
from railroad cars.
They were indicted under new
law dealing with interstate commerce
in transit and they hired gang o.
lawyers.
When 1t came time to plead to th'
indictment the small army of law
yers pleaded for delay. They go
IL.
When time was called the lawyer
again pleaded for delay. They go
IL.
When the case was again calle
the attorneys pleaded for a furthe
time to file demurrers with a vie'
to test the new law. They got it.
1t is reported that one attorne
drew 500 cold for taking up tn
ease, and that he gets $25 for eac
appearance in court.
IL the case is carried to the 81
preme court of the United States

There is little doubt but the delay
in getting currency legislation is due
TO Wall street And it is not the
currency bill, in itself, that is caus-
ing the delay. Bad as is the cur
rency bill for Wall street, the fear
of antitrust measures, with horns on
them, is the real bugaboo. OF course
Wall street would prefer a central
bank law, one that would place the
money of the country where the stock
gamblers could get at it; but the peo-
pie are against any such bill-the
people will not stand for it, and con-
gress knows it. A real trust regulat-
ing law, not a sham, might scatter
CONSERVATION among those who hold
watered stocks and saturated bonds.
AS violently as Wall street hates an
honest money law, it's hatred of an
honest antitrust law is more violent
Hence the delay in money reform.
