EARNING MONEY Al HOME.

Certain advertisements offer to
women ways to earn money at home
Departments in the periodicals and in
some Of the metropolitan newspapers
devote space and energy to instances
where one woman did all her own work
and cleared several thousands in few
years with bees, hens, anything the
department editor chose as a sideline
for women.
SLOW to earn money at home as
exenplified and taught in the wonlens
departments is on par with nov
to furnish a house complete with adry-
goods box and ten yards Of cretonne.'
It costs more than it comes to and
when the effort is over there is nothing
to show for It.
The best way to earn money at home
is to save 1t. The women who by look
ing into the matter Of prices brought
down the cost of butter and eggs and
family necessities in the big cities
earned more money at home by their
method than any department could
have directed. The housewife who
checks in carefully. knows her BUSH
ness when 1t comes to buying and
oversees the business of the house in
a business way earns more money at
home than all the imaginary cash
waved in the air by the advertiser who
il looking for his own advantage.
The household expenses are much
more than half the ordinary income.
Their expenditure calls for as shrewd.
careful overlooking as any business IN
town. Careless buying will break any
merchant. Carelessness in the ac-
counts amounts to the same thing in
merchandising. The way to earn money
at home Is to make business Of run
ming the home.

THE INDECENT MAGAZINE.

The indecent play, bad as it is, does
not have the far reaching contamlna-
ton of the indecent magazine. OF late
in magazines of allegedly better class
much of the fiction is devoted to analy-
seq of certain pha ses of humanity
which no more belong in pubic PRINT
than the secrecy Of families belongs
on the public streets. The trouble with
most Of these half obscene uncurtaln-
ing of sex secrecy. is that they were
written to attract, not those who might
approach the analyses in pnlloSo-
nhical way but those Of prurient mind
and that army of curious youth who
seek knowledge without purpose and
who like Aristotles youths may De
considered unfit to learn moral philo-
sophy. Indeed there are few of the
more popular magazines which are tree
of this fault which is much more than
a fault. To mention specific instances
would be to give the magazines which
are willing to seek circulation after
the manner described a wider oppor-
tunity. Much Of 1t is merely nasty.
Most Of it is erotic inflammable, pru-
rient. 1t deals with gilded viciousness
and that sensuality which is an under
current in life everywhere and makes
it common, gives it place among the
verities, mingles and stirs ineNtriably
the corrupt of life with the pure and
decent. 1t suggests that all are alike
and that unbridled passions, secret
sensualities and brutalism are part of
all lives and to be considered and
| argued and explained and condoned by
children as by philosophers. There is
! no element making toward the lower
| ing of moral standards more than this
| brazen symposium Of the magazine fic-
ton which is assaulting the moral
fiber Of society.
How many parents realize that read
| ing has almost as great effect upon the
future of children and youth as asso-
citation? How many watch the books
and the magazines as they watch the
associates of their children? Is it part
of our American carelessness, that
shifting of parental obligation to the
school teacher, the book and magazine
publisher, any who may relieve the
pressure Of parental duty and the OBJ
| legations Of parenthood?
! We have come upon a time when
real literature is not read. when the
search is for sensation when we SIT
a play? And II Is required that tina,
sensation be mainly physical. that the
pun be a double intendre. the appeal

REPEAL THE TOLL EXEMPTION.

J.
[Sioux City Journal.l +.
Senator Root has introduced bill
repeating the section Of the Panama
canal act exempting American coast
ing vessels from toll charges. The
bill offers the most effective and dig
nified method Of correcting what was
at once an international faux pas and
an error in domestic economy.
II the diplomatic incident is allowed
to run its natural course we can not
avoid arbitration as requested by
Great Britain. Practically all authori-
ties on international law agree that
our case Is too flimsy to be sustained
in any arbitration court Those who
are most insistent for the free tolls
policy contend likewise that we shall
refuse to arbitrate because of the
virtual certainty that we must lose.
But no one who has regard for the ma
tional honor can advocate refusal to
arbitrate after we have entered into
positive agreement to arbitrate just
such disputes. If we must arbitrate
and be beaten. it would be cheaper
and less humiliating to remove by vol
untary act Great Britain's objections
to our canal policy.
However, if we had never entered
into treaty guaranteeing equal treat
ment to all ships in the canal, and II
Great Britain had not raised the point
that the treaty was being violated. the
advisahlity of repeating the toll eX-
emption clause Of the canal act would
remain 1t should be repealed because
it involves a gratuitous and wholly
useless subsidy to a class of shipping
already enjoying a monopoly and pro-
fitting immensely by the construction
Of, the Panama canal. Year after
year we have refused to subsidize
shipping in way that would put new
ships into commission in world trade.
Now we are giving unasked subsidy
to ships engaged in the coastlng mo-
nopoly subsidy that will not put an
other bottom into commission or cause
the employment of another American
seaman. Without this subsidy our
coastwise vessels would profit enor-
mously by the opening of the canal. BY
paying tolls they would be giving up
mere fraction of their saving by reason
Of the new short route.
It will be a long time before the
canal is paying operating expenses and
interest on the investment. 1t is moth

COST OF GOOD LIVING.
rKeokuk Gate City.1

Two statements have appeared IN
the newspapers recently regarding
the ever-interesting subject OF the
present high cost Of living. one was
that. under present conditions. the
cost Of conveying six dollars worth OF
food from the producer to the con-
sumer is seven dollars. The other
was a statement from the department
OF agriculture that one of the factors
in producing higher prices 10 the as1-
tation for pure foodstuffs and the en-
actmen. and enforcement OF pure
food laws. These statements are Typ
ical of two most important forces al
present influencing living conditions.
One has to do entirely with manage
ment and administration. If 1t is true
that it costs seven dollars to market
six dollars worth Of food. and that the
housewife Is paying thirteen dollars
for six dollars worth Of nourishment.
the seven dollars difference going to
nav middiemen, railways, etc, this need
cause no dismay. 1t simply means
that our commercial machinery il re-
ceiving more than its just due. anc
that it needs overhauling and simph-
fyine, a task to which the American
people are fully equal. But the other
statement. instead OF causing any ap-
prehension. should really be reason
for congratulation. That the Ameri-
can public is sufficiently alive to the
Importance and value Of pure food
stuffs for. this knowledge to have an
influence on prices Is most graft
flying sign of progress and of higner
and better standards OF living. me
fact that the initial cost is greater
has no bearing on the ultimate value
of the food product Certified milk
costs more. than ordinary dirty dis
ease carrying milk. bat is 1t more ex-
pensive? When one considers the cost
of medical services, nursing, medicines
and loss of time ana life caused by
diseases Transmitted by dirty milk, At
becomes evident that the first COST
is not fair criterion. and that clean,
pure milk is far cheaper in the end,
even tho It's initial cost is few cents
higher. This is true Of all pure foods.

lawyers would exclude them as biased
in the matter.
@. SIS it true that these many ex-
perts consist of six. four of whom give
Conditional answers. one supports the
board and one does not support the
board?"
A. No. 1t is not true. Many letters
from noted educators have been print
ed by the board and all but the one
uniformly endorse the boards action
not as ideal but as the only expedient
when confronted with such a system AS
has grown up In Iowa. Noted edu-
Gators in Iowa have since endorsed 1t
and, what is more. no man has as yet
ever attempted to propose a better
plan. If the Iowa Falls Citizen intends
to persist in it's criticism it should
first admit that we need two engineer
ing schools in Iowa. This admitted it
must then admit that to bring each of
the schools up to the highest standard
an expenditure of million for each
one will do and two salary lists of $751;
900 per annum must be maintained in
stead of one. Likewise two domestic
science colleges must be maintained.
Not schools but colleges, for that is
what the Ames department has been.
The state university where the work in
liberal arts will always attract women
students. is entitled to such depart
ment far more than is a. technical
school.
The Iowa Falls contentionist must
also admit that advanced work in the
classics way beyond the average col
lege course should be properly main
tanned at college designed to equip
teachers to teach in our public schools.
If he endorses these things he will be
consistent. If not then he ought to
line up with the board regardless of his
fear that because Governor Carroll ap-
pointed it il is rotten. The T.-R. will
go as far as anyone in suspecting the
motives of CAROLS crowd in politics
but this board seems to have the en-
dorsement just now of many good pro-
gressives. 1t consists of two progress
sive republicans, one bull mooser, four
democrats and two standpatters.
Ex-senator Funk has made it very
clear in his public statement that the
legislature. which created the board,
did so for the express purpose of hav-
ing the board coordinate the schools
and that since the board has worked
out its plan after three years of study
ing all Of the details the present leg
islature must either stand by it's board
Of education or abolish it. The T.-R.
supported the bill to create the board
duplication was going on in the states
educational schools when independent
" managed in competition with one
another. The board has acted and the
T.-R. believes that the public should
support its decision for the reason that
the problem is too complicated for
legislature. or the press or the jublic
to understand in all its details, and 1t
can never be settled intelligentIy ex-
cept by a commission which has given
it the same careful. study that this
board has given to it. We endorse the
hoard because we are opposed to
doubling engineering schools. domestic
science colleges, teachers college, or
any other unnecessary Implications in
the states educational system.
