Furnishing Wife eeaters.

The practical operation of q Califor-
mia state law enacted two years ago,
imposing Jail sentences on wife beat
ers. with the added, penalty of requir-
ms them to work on the public roads.
has brought about peculiar state of
offairs that puts the judges in a guam
dairy when sentence is to be passed.
Many of the wives are using the new
law tn Jail their husbands for as long
a time as six months on second and
third offcnses. and then collect the
81 50 a day for their maintenance
This is about as much as the ordi-
nary wife beating variety of husband
would earn anyhow. so the wives are
happy.
They not only were sure of their in
come, but they always knew where
their husbands were nights,
The numerous cases of wife bca ting
coming to the attention of the judges
have decided them to sift each charge
before sentencing the culprits
under the new law
The system, however, has made wife
beating, according to judges, such a
luxury that it is now beyond the reach
of the ordinary man.-Los Angeles

Oxygen and BREATHING.

That there Is less oxygen in the rar-
etied air of celebrated mountain health
resorts than in any room with closed
windows, no matter how crowded with
persons, was an unchallenged state
ment made in the Times by the Eng
list expert on ventilation. DR. Leonard
Hill. The British Royal Society has
Just published paper supplementary
TO the report on the Angle American
Pixies peak expedition by Miss NJ p.
Fitzgerald, which concludes with the
statement that ''arterial blood con-
ta.ns considerably more oxygen at
high attitudes than at sea level" The
lungs are better ventilated, for one
thing, but it is certain, also. that the
old theory that the lungs should be
plentifully supplied with chemically
pure air must be discarded. The little
cell-like aleyeoli at the ends of the
lung branches have a special power of
extracting oxygen, even while the sup
ply of oxygen in the air is deficient.
This secretary power is increased at
high attitudes, and the increase does
not disappear until considerable time
after descent to sea level-Ncw York

Italian Telephone Girls.

Last year the Italian government
gave official notice to its female en-
ployes in the telephone service that
they should not marry under the age
of 20 wears. Recently a new order has
been announced that no married wo-
man need solicit admission into the
service, as she will be refused. More
than this, bachelor girls previously adj
mitted must obligate themselves in
writing not to take husband. Those
who do not submit tn this requirement.

barous decree has naturally provoked
a number of meetings. Madame Tere-
