SUSPENDED SENTENCE.

The case of the Avenue lodging
house is being made a city campaign
issue by some of the opponents Of
Commissioner Houston. Readers of
h Muscular will recall that. last
week, the license of the landlady of
this rooming house was revoked by
the action of the city council, upon
evidence which seemed to the commits
sioners to be sufficient. The day fol-
landlady appeared before the mayor
n begged for an opportunity to
pitiful conditions and promising to be
good in the future. The law gives
fences; when Mayor Rhoades had
heard the woman's story, he suspended
the operation of the councils order
with the understanding that the order
will be enforced upon the first occa-
sion of any improper conduct in the
place. This is Mayor Rhoades' state
ment of h case. 1t is very different
from the story which the Hous-
ton campaigners are telling. Accord
ing to the mayor, the responsibility of
the suspension of the order is entirely
his own, and he says with equal posi-
to enforce the order as soon as there
is n unseemly conduct in the Avenue
lodging house. Commissioner Hous-
ton had nothing to do with the sus-
pension of the order. Such action is
entirely the prerogative of the mayor

Modern Women
VII.-WOMEN AS MASTERS.
r., Erederie l. HaSkip

1t is absolutely impossible for any
human being to live a neutral life in
this world. One must either add to
the prosperity and progress of society
by the production of some useful sub
stance or quality. or lessen the value
of the production of others by waste
fulness. There will always be some
MASTERS, although, fortunately for the
general good, the number is compara-
lively small. The ONE MASTERS in
america occupy the unique position
of eXcelling the women of every
other nation in extravaganza and
Wastefulness. TO a large degree this
Wastefulness is developed by the
amount of leisure time at their dis
posal. The mischief done by the
idle hands is never better typified than
in the wastcfulness of a certain type
of American oma 1t has assumed
such proportions as to affect com
mercial prosperity in some localities
and it's prevalence among ONE Of
moderate means is more alarming
thar among those of wealth.
A feature of modern business life
is the bonding corporation, which.
for a fixed rate each year. assumes
the responsibility for the trusts com
mitted to a man holding either pub
lie office or private employment in
which he has the handling Of other
peoples money. A generation ago it
was customary for a man to ask his
friends to go upon his bond. Now HI
goes to one of these companies and
pays it for the risk it assumes. Be
fore issuing the bond the company
makes a careful Investigation re-
garding all Of the conditions of the
mans life. his reputation, personal
habits and his resources. But the most
important matter of all is the investi-
cation regarding the habits of his
wife. A man credited with an extrav-
agant wife will find it harder to Sc
cure a bond. He nay have to pay a
higher rate than other conditions
seem to warrant. And this simply be-
cause the experience of all companies
goes NO show that the most frequent
cause of defalcatiOn by men uppos
eddy honest is the e~Ntravagant demand
made upon his moderate income by
his ~prodigal wife.
A young man of exceptional bust
ness capacity and high standing re-
Gently had a position rendered him
which required him to give bonds for
several thousand dollars for security.
His application was rejected by the
bonding company to which he applied
and he lost his chance of success. a

LINING UP.

Political interest in the national
capital c~enters today in the progress
sive caucus Of the house which has
been called for tomorrow for the pur-
pose of organizing for the session.
This interest receives intensity from
the fact hat the caucus is a reminder
that there will be a third active party
in the house this year. This will DE a
situation almost without precedent in
recent times. There is speculation as
to the exact numerical strength of the
progressive caucus, but ever the old
party fellows admit it will be great
enough to have considerable effect
upon house deliberations before the
session closes. 1t is forecasted tina
Kansas will be the progressive candi-
date for speaker; this will designate
him as the leader of the party. The
progressives will be in a position to
demand recognition in the organiza-
ton of the hous committees and they
will receive it, according to the state
ment OF h leaders of the party in
control.

out the trouble of choosing something
new. The Waster scOrns last years
clothes n insists upon new things
each season oblivious of the fact tina
her husbands finances forbid useless
expenditure.
The wife of a $500 a year clerk
went into a fashionable shoe store at
he beginning of the season to order
her winter shoes which she selected as
follows: One pair of carriage boots,
white satin, fur-trimmed, SO; three
pairs of evening slippers, one of them
imported and gold embroidered
amounting to $22 altogether; a pair Of
high walking boots at $40; a pair of
dressy black shoes at the same price,
making a total of $50 for her seasons
shoes. Several pairs of silk stock
ings to go with them brought the bill
up still higher, and having made her
selections with an air of bored indif-
ference she ordered them charged to
her husband and left the tsore. The
the transaction, observed to a friend:
That's the kind of a woman thai
makes ~absconding bank Cashiers. That
WOnian's husband is a good, hard
working man, but he'll never get
ahead because every time he gets a
raise in salary his wife goes out tC
blow it, He's always paid her bills
81 far, but it's an wen gamble that
tnere'l come a time when he can't
do it,"
The woman waster is always a
shl1k. She shirks every duty and re-
spcnsibility until her own life be-
comes the biggest waste of all. She
shirks all the pain and responsibility
of ch~ild-bearing n the duties of
managing a home. In the boarding
house or hotel where she lives, she is
a brewer of discomfort among all
those she knows. Not content with
merely wasting all her own time and
substance she continually eXerts her
influence toward extravaganza and
and dleness upon the part of other
women Usually she tries to discover
some form of social diversion to serve
as an eXcuS for her failure in the
things for which a woman should be
held responsible. Often she tries to
imagine herself an invalid until, hav-
ing wasted unlimited sums of money
upon physicians. both esi,lnlate and
quack, she has 50 wasted her physical
resources that her invalidism is par
TALLY real. All her amusements and
diversions constitute additional mean
for wasting the family income. She is
a good patron of the afternoon tea
room where women gather to regale
themselves with unwholesome viands
at eXtortionate prices and to discuss
scandals, questionable plays n books
which the busy, healthy-minded wo-
man has not even time to think about.
One of the newer methods by which
the woman Waster manages to dispose
of a considerable portion of the fami-
ly income is by the patronage of the
beauty specialists whose parlors are
always thronged with women of her
type. The waster is always vain and
is seldom satisfied with her personal
appearance. If she was born a bru-
nette she wants to become a blonde
and the chemical blondes SO frequently

THE MORGAN INFLUENCE

Current magazine literature and current financial his
tory have made the name of Morgan familiar the world
over. The influence of ]. F. Morgan was not limited to his
own country nor will it we think, be limited to his own time.
Mr.. Morgan welded a power to which only the famous
Rothschild sway can be likened. He was one of the
strongest characters ever developed in this country. There
have been other great financiers, there have been other
kings of industry" there have been other great organizers
of business. But no other single brain has manifested the
versatility in these lines as did that which directed the af-
fairs of the house of Morgan.
Marvellous was the physical and mental force of this man.
Literally, he wore out successive sets of partners and bust
ness associates; they could not bear up under the strain of
the pace which the head of the house set for them. They
came, they went, but there remained the senior partner,
grim and determined, to speed their parting as he had well
coined their coming. Writing in the current issue of Nc
Cures, George kibbe Turner says of this phase of the
MORGAN system:

For %fiftysix years J. P. Morgan presided over this pro-
