TIME fifth deadly mistake of mat
rimony Is: FOR HUSBANDS
AND WIVES NOT TO BE
COMPANIONABLE.
Outside of the countries in which
is no place where husbands and wives
have so little in common as in
America
And America leads the world in di-
vorceR
In this country 1t is hardly too
much to say that the separation of
! husband and wife begins on their
wedding day. He goes one way. She
goes another lie absorbs himself in
| business. She absorbs herself in her
| housekeeping, or society, or her clubs.
He entertains his friends, as gen
eral thing, downtown, and she doesn't
even know the names of his masCu-
line cronies She gives hen parties
to women that he does not know by
| sight Each has life distinct and
| separate from the other.
You Will see the Englishman and
| his wife playing golf together, or
riding to hounds together, or tramp
| Ing together in long walks over the
| country. You will see the thrifty
| French bourgeois and his wife keep
| ing the store together during the
! week, and then off together on Sunday
on some little excursion, or TO make a
little feast You will see the Ger
man and his wife spending their
| evenings together, happily and placid
| ly, in some German beer garden. but
| the American husband and wife near
! ly always take their pleasure singly.
| II is a distiuCtively American joke
! IN which, when a man says that he is
going to Paris, his friend asks him:
| Are You going to take your wife
along with your"
! Why, no." exClaims the man in sur
! prise "Of course not Didn't l tell
! you | was going on a pleasure trip"
One of the main reasons why mar
| riaRe is a failure is because both
husband and wife are bored stiff.
| The atmosphere of the average home
is as heavy as lead, and the CONVEX
! sational range better fitted for the in
mates Of a feeble minded institution
| than for intelligent and cultivated
men and women.
The Yawn.
| 1t is literally true that unless a
couple have children they have moth
| ing whatever to talk about, no sub
| ject in which they are mutually in
tCrested, and so they sit up and yawn
in each others faces and take To
| quarTeling as a kind OF life saving
station to prevent them from perish
ing of ennui.
This seems an eNasgeratiou but
! just note the domestic conversation
at any breakfast table you know
Isn't 1t about Johnnie'S new shoes, OF
Mary's going to school? Then about

Then request for money? And when
there are no children the repertoire
is cut down by one topic Thrilling

Yet what else have the husband
and wife to say 10 each other? What
else have they got in common except
the children, and the pug dog, and
the cook, and the household expenses ?
Nothing. The husbands work neces-

Dear Miss Fairfax:

MIsfOrtunes Fail to
Shake Patience

CHESTER, Pa. Sept. 1O.--John Ship
ley of Marcus Hook has his fourth
severe affliction, the death of his wife.
Ruth Shipley. adding to his long list
of misfortunes which have befallen
him in few years.
First shipley lost his wife by death
after a brief marriage. He tmarried
again and the second aff1iction was
an accident to his young daughter,
Alene who was caught under a train
of cars controlled by local COM
pany, and both her legs were so badly
crushed that they were amputated.
Then came his third affiiction. His
son, Louis Shipley, was stricken blind,
due to illness. The fourth misfor-
tune was the death of Shipleys Sec
ond wife today.
Neighbors of Shipley say he is one
of the most patient and uncomplain-
ing men they ever saw despite his
long list of troubles.

To BECOME STAR
If Los Angeles Lad Beats
Watson Tomorrow Night
He Will Go to Front

There is a chance that Louis Rees.
the sturdy little Los Angeles light
weight, viii shortly loom up as one
of the best performers in the second
division of the lightweight colony.
Rees' fate will be settled tomorrow
evening, when he takes on Red Wat
son in a four round bout. just now
his chances are bright. provided that
he opens up and fights.
The southern lad has been plugging
along patient for the last year. and
nobody ever thought much of him
till last month, when he held Leo
Kelly OF St. Louis safe in two four
round mixups. He convinced the fans
that he is entitled to at least "a
chance with a formidable opponent, SO
the match with Watson is the result
of Rees' perseverance.
Watson Is very fast and has a good
punch, and when he was nghting
regularly around here he beat prac-
tically all comers. Then he took a
long layoff, coming back three weeks
ago against frankie Burns. who
shaded him in 10 round mill. II
Rees beats Watson this time the fiery
haired boy viii be out OF 1t, while his
opponent Will DC TlSnL IN the IIIls-
light.
There is ont battle on the bill
which should thrill the crowd. 1t will
bring together Eddie Miller and Kid
Bertelson, two Of the best bantams
on the coast Miller is q polished
boxer, while Bertelson is a rugged
fighter, and they are meeting this
time to settle an old grudge Each
of their past fou rmatches resulted IN
draws.
Dick Kendall. the Butchertown
lightweight. failed to pass the doctors
examination this morning, so Charley
Givens OF Seattle was substituted to
meet Walter Scott, the Mission boy.
Givens is a speedy little fellow and he
ought to give Scott a good time.
The other bouts are: Johnny Nc

Green Goggles Aid to
Cows Hunting Grass

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Sept. 10.-When pas
ture is poor and the grass scarce
just buy your COW pair of green
glasses and turn her out among the
sand dunes
This is the advice of Indiana farm
ers who have tried to experiment and
assert that even with cow there
is such a thing as mental suggestion.
Because of the recent drought much
of the vegetation in the sand dune
region near Gary, Miller and Porter.
Ind, has been killed. Not only was
there practically no grass. but the
glare of the sun upon the sand was
found to be running the eyes of cat
tie. In the search for grass many
of the bovines lost the use of their
optics.
One riding along the country roads
in this section will see cows wearing
green glasses. The farmers who have
had their cattle fitted with the grass
colored spectacles assert that the
scheme is a great one, and they pre-
dict that 1t Is but a question of time
until these glasses will be worn by
cattle everywhere during the sum
mer months.

Hughey Jennings
Rated as the Most
Eccentric Coacher

Hugh Jennings 'whee-ahed.' whis-
tied. kicked and pull-grassed the De-
troit Tigers into three American
league pennants. and that ought to
be justification enuogh' for his antics
on the coaching line" said promi-
nent baseball man recently in reply
ing to a criticism Of the present De-
troit club and It's standing in the
pennant race.
or course. this statement is not
strictly true, but there seems little
reason to doubt that the pepper and
ginger Jennings put into his coaching
was reflected III the scrappy Tigers.
who won championships in 1907, 1908
and 1909.
The present Detroit club has not
the lighting spirit OF the club a few
years ago. That is natural. The old
championship aggregation disinte-
grated, az all winners must do event
ually, while the manager is trying
to find new arms. legs and heads to
replace those worn by usage and
years. Jennings realizes that he must
build anew, and that takes time as
well as patience.
Many reasons have been advanced
for jennings eccentric coaching.
Some say it is to divert the opposing
pitchers attention; some say 1t Is to
make his own batsmen less self-con-
scious. Jennings lets those inclined
to that sort of thing advance their
own conclusions and just smiles.
When interrogated he replies: It's
not against the rules, and IL doesn't
do any harm, does It? So, If it
amuses me, why notT'
jennings coaching, whether or not
il anuses him, amuses the fans, and
no doubt has contributed largely TO
his popularity around the Ban john

short changed at the crucial moment
It is too bad for the sake Of the
great sport that such a hitch should
occur right now, when the agitation
against IL Is so keenly felt right here
in California. Nobody can place the
blame till all the facts in the case
have been exploited, and up to the
present time none of the interested
parties have expressed a willingness
to go into details.
As predicted in these columns sew
eral days ago, the Vancouver pro-
meters probably bit off a chunk that
they were unable to swallow. No city
the size Of Vancouver has any license
to guarantee any fighter $4,000 for
his end. RitchIe made q mistake in
falling for the bait, but experience is
