Go Out on Strike, Mad
am, and Husband Will
Rudely Awaken.

To this woman ] say also: Go
out on strike, madam Don't do
another lick OF work. Don't turn
another domestic wheel until you
force a fair settlement out of your
husband. Just one day OF the
confusion worse COMPOUNDED of a
home in which nobody has wash
ed the baby or dressed the chill
dren or cleared the table or swept
the floors or provided any food
or done any of the other millions
OF things that a housewife at
tends to every day will convince
a husband that the laborer is
worthy of her hire, even if she is
his wife.
SO ! repeat again that there is
no reason for a woman to be a
domestic martyr unless she really
enjoys martyrdom. You can
bring any man to terms by inter-
fering with his comfort.

liquefy more than a million mill
lion tons OF solid iron!
The result would be a very big
and very deep hole in the earth.
Thousands Of square miles would
be more or less directly affected
by the terrific impact, for the
shock would be greater than that
of the mightiest earthquake, and
perhaps would tumble into ruin
and mountains would shake off
their fringes of rock in all parts
Of the globe, while the sea would
hurl itself in whelming tidal
waves upon every coast and
drown ell the lov-lying islands.
A Great Heat.
THE atmospheric disturbances
would also be enormous. The
sudden development OF great heat
at the point Of collision would
unbalsnce the air currents, and
destructive and capricious winds
would blow to and fro over the
earth
We have only a little space left
to consider the effects OF COLI
sion between the earth and the
tall OF a comet. This is something
that has actually occurred two or
three times within a century.
The comet OF 1851 enyeloped
the earth with the spreading end
Of its tail for a few hours, and
in 1910 Halley's comet brushed
its tail over the earth, but ap-
parently the electric repulsion de-
veloped prevented the gases Of
the tail from entering the atmos-
phere II is possible that in every
case this would occur. so that
electricity may be our effective
guardian against deleterious sub
stances that might otherwise be
introduced into the atmosphere
from the switching tails Of close
passing comets.

Men of Family Expect
Elaborate Menus on
penny" Allowances.

Furthermore, the wage carriers
of the family have figured down
her Housekeeping expenses to the
last possible penny, and she is
not given one cent more than the
actual cost of food and fuel and
rent on which to run the place.
And. as If this wasn't enough
tyranny and stinginess, they com
plain bitterly when she doesn't set
a tenderloin steak table on stew
meat income, and when it isn't
forthcoming the girl is blamed
for not making one dollar do the
work OF five,
Nothing could be grayer or
more forlorn than this little
housewives life, and it offers no
prospect Of improvement. She
can never save up any money
because she has none to save.
She can not dress prettily and go
to places of amusement as does
her sister who has her own pay
envelope She can not even look
forward to marrying, because her
family cannily discouarges men
callers. because they don't want
to lose their cook.
Besides which Cinderella in the
kitchen hasn't got as good a
chance as the wicked sister in
the parlor, no matter what the
fairy tales say. So all that this
girl sees in the way Of future IS
Shaving for her family until her
brothers and sisters get married
and she is old, and will have to
go and be a dependent on some
in-law who doesn't want her.
She's domestic martyr il
there ever was one, but there
isn't a particle Of use in her being
roasted at the stake. She's got
the remedy in her hands II she'll
only use &C. So has every other
domestic woman who is misused,
and put upon in her own family.

Imposition on Woman Is

expects to slave in a kitchen

individual rights, but if she gets
them in the family circle. she's

Heretofore women have re-

They have felt that they had to

their menkind accorded them.

TIME grotesquely tragic thing
about martyrdom is that 1t
is almost always entirely
unnecessary. The martyr need not
be a martyr if he or she had an
inch Of backbone. or a thimole-
full of good, hard horse sense
This is particularly true OF the
domestic martyr who Is not a pin
feathered angel, as she Is painted
but just a plain goose.
The thing that calls forth the
above heartfelt words is the case
OF a young friend of mine. This
girl is the oldest of a large fam
lily. and when her mother died
four years ago, she became the
little house mother to the family.
She was only 16 then She is
but 20 now, at the very age
when a girl should be most care
free and happy, for these few
years are the playtime in the
average woman's life, and the
only playtime she ever knows.
Instead of that, this girl has
cooked. and cleaned. and washed,
and mended, and sewed for her
father and four husky brothers
and a little sister only a year
younger than herself. She is the
most industrious little creature
in the world, and the best man
ager and a real genius in one Of
the finest Of the arts-cooking.
The father, the four big broth
ers and the sister all go out to
work and earn good salaries, but
the girl who stays at home and
slaves from morning till night to
make the balance of them com
Portable and give them just the
sort of things they want to eat,
is paid not one cent for her labor,

Infantry Decides the Battle.

While there have been many dis
cussions as to the relative value OF
the different branches of an army
there is little doubt, according to a
writer in the Scientific American,
that it is the infantry that wins bat
ties.
While it is probable the success Of
a battle will depend to a large extent
on the support of the field artillery, it
is certain that the principal and most
important arm is the infantry, which
in practically every case must decide
the final issue. The cavalry may be
the first to be drawn into a battle.
and the artillery may destroy the en-
emy's artillery, but battle is never
won until the infantry has driven hack
the enemy's lines.
The usual mode of advancing for
the infantry is to deploy them in
line with long interval between each
soldier This, naturally, is for the
purpose Of offering a smaller target
for the enemy, but makes 1t more diff
ficult, however, for the leaders to
keep as good control over the men,
and for that reason one of the objects
of field artillery is to make the en-
emY's troops deploy early.
The infantry soldier is armed in all
the countries with rife and bayonet.
The rifle is the weapon upon which re-
lance is placed, the bayonet being
used only as last means, when in a
hand-to-hand encounter with the en-
emy
