fight in Nevada at the next election.
AZ meeting OF the Progressive ma

1T is amusing says Collier S

nounce the Democratic caucus me-

methods may be objectionable, but
the ethics of them is exalted com

This young man is giving her
before marriage a very small
sample of the line Of conduct he
would pursue after marriage. If,
when he's counting. he shows that
he's q tightwad. he will make one
of the skinfiint husbands who
expect wife to run a house and
keep good table on air. and who
asks a woman what she did with
the quarter she was given week
before last.
If. before marriage. a man neg
lects the little delicate attentions
that please a woman, after mar
riage he will be brutally disre-
gardful of her feelings and tastes.
The difference between having
a husband who remembers your
birthday and one who forgets It
is the difference between matri-
mony that is angels food and
matrimony that is plain corned
beef and cabbage, but the differ
ence between being married to
man who is anxious that you
should be pleased and happy and
being married to man who
poesn't care whether you are
happy or miserable is the differ
ence between heaven and hell.
When a man is wooing a girl
he ordinarily wants to do just
what she wants to door at least

4 YOUNG girl is engaged to
n be married to a young man
who comes to see her
nearly every evening, but who
never brings her a flower, nor a
box of candy. nor takes her to any
place of amusement. except very
occasionally to the movies"
This girl is a nice girl. There
isn't q bit of the CRATER about
her. and she wouldn't know the
first principle about how to go
about working a man" but she's
young, and gay of heart, and she
loves the amusements that be-
long to her time of life, and she
finds it a trife dull to spend all
of her evenings conversing with
even her sweetheart
She would like a little diversion
thrown in on the side. and she
wants to know of me If l don't
think 1t queer" that her fiance
never takes her to a dance, or to
the theater, or out for a little
supper.
l think it is more than queer"
| think that this girls Guardian
Angel is strictly on the job look
ing out after her. and that she has
received a solemn warning not to
marry that man, and that if she
doesn't take the tip she viii rue
it to the longest day she lives.

with the wagging tongues that

crease and spread the deafening
babblement in which they de-

tongues on their planet. includ-
ing those of the babies, but to
those they have added 100000
machines, which enormously
multiply the talking power.
They are not satisfied with
the natural reach OF their ears,
as ordinary asses are, but they
must stretch them, electrically,
around the whole circumference
of their insignificant globe, while
they cackle and clack and bray

Such might be the hasty re-
marks of the derisive philosopher

ing of the vast extension of the
telephone systems of the earth,

ether. to send our wandering

ken over the wires, but who could
object to that? They, too. are
refined, abbreviated and made
more pointed.
The telephone has done a great
deal for freedom Of speech. clear
ing 1t of obscurity, of prolixitv
of pretense, of false modestv
land especially of that element of
personal shrinking which affec
the sincerity of utterance, face
to face, of all but the most frank
and fearless spirits. Very few
men express their real Thoughts
as boldly and straightforward
IN ordinary conversation as they
do in the quasi impersonal con-
verse that occurs at the tele-
phone. OF course, there is an
other side to the picture. The
man who has something to con-
ceal behind his speech probably
finds relief in the absence Of the
penetrating eyes of his interloo-
utor when he talks by telephone:
he is, as it were. protected by a
screen.
Still, the advantage remains
with sincerity and frankness,
and one can say a painful, but
necessary, thing much more cas-
lily by telephone. Perhaps II the
right of woman to propose mar
riage is ever put into practice
(see Hearst's Magazine for Oc-
tober on this subject), 1t will
first be done by telephone. The
truth would be told, and the
bushes and confusion spared.
It is unnecessary to refer TO
the enormous saving of time, and
the tremendous fertilization Of
business that the telephone has
effected At the close OF 1912
the whole world contained IA
$4,000 telephones, OF which the
United States had 1887, s25, and
all Europe only 8,15S,00o.
