The Murder of Love Is Commonest of Crime
And All Too frequently the Death Wound Not Inflicted by
Stab, But by Pin Pncks
Rv DOROTHY DIX
By DOROTHY DIX

not kill love quicker il shed gone out
cunning for IL with a gatling gun.
Her husband resents her lack of faith.
She bores him with her reproaches,
and on the principle that one might
as well be hanged for a sheep as a
lamb, she often does drive man who
would have otherwise been faithful to
hunt up some more reasonable woman
for solace.
Then there is the woman who
makes her love a prison house in
which a man is always conscious of
the bars and bolts. She makes the
marriage ceremony deprive him of his
liberty and thenceforth she arrogates
to herself the right of police his every
movement. He cannot move from his
own fireside without giving a complete
account of all he did, and said and
thought. and furnishing an alibi for
every hour.
It is not reasonable to suppose that
because a man takes "a wife he
changes all of his tastes and habits,
and no longer finds pleasure in any
of the amuSements to which he was
accustomed, and yet this kind of a
wife never even gives her husband an
evening off in which to enjoy himself
in his own way. She makes of him a
liar because he has to tell untruths to
square himself at home, although he
would be truthful enough If she would
only stand for the truth. This woman
kills love because 1t is not in human
nature for anybody to love his jailer
There is also the woman who kills
love by her complaints. She forgets
that she married of her own free will
and accord, and that she knew that
she was marrying a poor man. She
makes the deadly mistake of striking
at a mans vanity by bemoaning the
fact that she could have married bet
ter, and lamenting that she can't have
as fine things as some of her neigh
bors do.
She kills love by wounding her hus-
bands self-love. No man ever forgives
a woman for that.
Men kill their wives affection for
them by Indifference. There is a the
ory that a woman who once loves a
man can't stop.
4 Woman's Love Can BE Starved to
Death Very Quickly
She just goes on loving him any
how. This is a mistake. A woman's
love can be starved to death very
quickly, and when a man absorbs him
self in business and ceases to show
his wife any attention or tenderness,

Distinguished Frenchman
GlOries in the Big Canal

Philippe Bunau-Varilla, the dis
tinguished Frenchman, who made pos
sible the Panama route for the big
canal, writes this interesting letter to
the New York sun:
sir: Yesterday way a day of glory!
Il have sailed across the continental
divide on the first ocean steamer, the
Cristobal, which crossed the Isthmus of
Panama from the waters of the Atlantic
to the waters of the Pacific.
1T was not the inaugural trip, which
is to take place on the fifteenth, and
for that reason the ship did not go
through, the channel from Balboa har-
Dor to the deep water of the Pacific.
But for the engineer, If not for the
authorities and for the public, it was
indeed the ringing of the bell which
announced that the dream of ages had
become fact And this bell has rung
in the first year of the fifth century
since the discovery of the Pacific!
TT was a day of glory also for the
American nation which generously
gives this great waterway to the world
without any special privilege for her
self or her citizens and without any
mercenary consideration in view
TT was day of glory for the great
engineer, Colonel GoethalS who car
enterprise.
TT was a day of glory also for the
Genius of the French nation. which
discovered all the technical solutions
of problem hitherto considered az i'm
possible of realization.

Of all the obstacles then in the way.

open their canal in 1891 had not the

canal had been in the hands of Gov
ernment with unlimited financial re-
sources. instead of being in those of a
private corporation, the credit of which
became extinct in 1888, the Panama
Canal would have been a fact twenty
two years go.
Yesterday was therefore day Of

her affection is mighty apt to turn up
It's little toes to the daisies.
Men kill their wives love by sheer
brutality. There are husbands who
think that marriage gives them the
right to criticise their wives, and say
things to them that they wouldn't
dream of saying to any other woman
on earth. Vinegar catches no more
flies after marriage than 1t did be-
fore, and the wife who has to stand for
insults from the bully that she is
married to learns to hate himRnd fear
him just as any other woman would
who was forced by circumstances to
endure a cad.
Men kill their wives love by being
parsimonious to them and by MAX
ing the women who spend their lives
doing the dreary round of domestic
work feel that they are slaves who are
grudgingly fed and clothed for their
services. No love was ever robust
enough to survive the question: What
did you do with that quarter l gave
YOU last week."
Men kill their wives love by petty
tyranny and by sheer Injustice The
man who takes advantage of his wifes
financial dependence on him to treat
her as he would not his stenographer,
or his cook, or any woman employe

Love Can Only Live i'm the Warm.
Sweet Air of a Happy Home
Love is an exotic that can only live
in the warm air of happy home. 1t
cannot exist in an atmosphere full of
pickering and quarrels. nor in one
that is surcharged with the querulous
complaints and temper of a woman
or the surliness of a man.
Yet there are women who deluge
their husbands with ,reproaches and
who nag them every minute the un-
fortunate men are at home, and there
are men who never speak pleasant
word in their own houses and at
whose approach laughter is hushed
and the very cat takes to the cellar.
And these people have the nerve
to complain that their husbands and
wives do not love them. and that their
homes are unhappy!
And they never realize that they
have murdered love. and with their
own hands have destroyed their hap
piness.

WAISTS FOR CHILDREN

Dressing of chilGren is quite a
problem for every mother. therefore
she is usually interested in wearing
apparel for children that promises
greater comfort and convenience IS
well as wear. The William Frank
waist for children is specially made
with regard to comfort and of splendid
wearing materials. Buttons for chill
dren to put on themselves, avoids

WATCH OUT FOR nRoNEs

To build up flock of high produce
ers one must be on the lookout for
drones at all seasons of the year. IT
is doubtful. however. if one can select
a better time than August and Sept
ember for making observations that
will lead to the indentity of the expen-
sive boarder. An early molting hen
is always a poor producer Early
molting shows that the hen has not
the vitality necessary to make a high
yearly production. Since 1t takes a
hen from so to more than 100 days
to complete the mott, 1t will be seen
that she is carried through the sum-
mer at a loss. Any hen that starts TO
mott before the first of September
should never be used a breeder.

state where although they stay to-
gether we can hear their matrimonial
fetters clank as they walk, we are apt
to rush to the conclusion that some
big and tragic wrong has awakened
them from loves young dream.
Not at all. Ninety-nine times out
of a hundred an autopsy on the body
of their dead love would show that the
deceased had come to its end, not by
q clean dagger wound that struck

It is the constant dropping of water
that wears away stone, and the cease
less little shattering of ideals and
rending of illusions that at last shat
ter domestic happiness.
Take the woman, for instance, who
adores her husband so that she is
frantically jealous of him. He loves
her, and he feels that she might trust
him, and have some respect for his
loyalty and honor. Abstractly she
does, but when ii comes to the con-
crete she cannot endure to see him
show another woman even ordinary
civility. When they go out if he does
not act like a boor to every woman
they meet, there are tears and hys-
terics when they get home.
Suspicion of Mythical "Other Woman"
Makes Her n Pest
She is even jealous of all other
women collectively and goes through
his pockets for letters in feminine
handwriting. She calls him up over
the phone to see that he is really at
his Office. and makes herself a pest
and a nuisance by suspecting a myth
cal other woman.
The result is inevitable. She could

RECORD JULY CATTLE PRICES
Kansas City Packers Predicting H.
Cent Beef-last Summers
Drought Blamed.

Kansas City, Mo.-Thus far this
year 100, 900 fewer cattle have
been marketed in Kansas City than in
the same period in 1913. the receipts
being the smallest of any similar pc
Rod in 20 years. The decrease is
attributed to the drought In the
southwest last summer.
July cattle prices are the highest
eve known for this month. The de-
mand now, cattle men and meat pack
ers say, must be supplied mostly from
grass-fed cattle. Another crop of
prime, corn-fed beeves cannot be
made, they say, until the corn crop
of 1914 is available, probably not
sooner than the middle of November.
If August prices for corn-fatted
steers are as much higher than the
July level as they were in 1912, next
month will see prime beeyes bringing
81 a hundred pounds in Kansas City.
