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
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 l 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.

Men of Family Expect
Elaborate Menus on
penny" Allowances.

Furthermore, the wage earners
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 stingness, they COM
plain bitterly when she doesn't set
a tenderloin steak table on a 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 pldCtS VI amusement Go doSS
her sister who has her own pay
envelope She can not even look
forward to marrying, because her
family cannily discharges 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 a 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 a domestic martyr if
there ever was one, but there
isn't particle of use in her being
roasted at the stake She's got
the remedy in her hands if she'll
only use it. So has every other
domestic woman who is misused.
and put upon in her own family.
And the remedy is just to go

This makes way for enforced
motherhood and the bringing of
myriads of unwelCome children to

The enslavement of woman in

TIME grotesquely tragic thing
about martyrdom is that it
is almost always entirely
unnecessary. The martyr need not
be a martyr if he or she had an
inch of backbone, or a thimDle-
full of good, hard horse sense,
This is particularly true of the
domestic martyr who is not 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 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 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.

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 all the low-lying islands
A Great Heat.
The atmospheric disturbances
would also be enormous. The
sudden development of great heat
at the point of collision would
unbalance 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 a COLI
sion between the earth and the
tail of comet. This is something
that has actually occurred two or
three times within a century.
The comet of 1851 enveloped
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 1t 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.
