Dodging the Duty.

Some Boston men, who bought a

water, found themselves in fix when
a tariff of % cents a gallon was i'm

water into the States, They wrote to
a New York lawyer, and asked him
how they could get round the law.
The lawyer thought hard. Then he

your advice"
Every day in the week somewhere
in the world some woman marries
man IN the hope OF reforming him
and her relatives scream themselves
black in the face in unavailing pro-
test.
Sometimes the reformation is ac-
Complished but the proportion IS so
small that the one reformed man is
not worth the scores OF womenS
hearts that are broken in the saving
of him. But with this appalling rec
ord to discourage her. there never
was a woman unafraid TO attempt the
task after Love has gained her atten-
ton. II is the most romantic. and.
therefore, the most popular, road To

since life usually presents no Hercu-

charges against her he is afraid To
let himself go on loving, proof that
he doesn't know what love really IL,
He wants advice Here il Is: Don't
tell the girl she is lazy. Contrariness
is the dormant note in every girls
character. and the girl who is told
often that she is lazy grows lazier
with every reiterstion Praise her
for what she does. and she will do
better and more. Try molasses in

LADY BORGLAR'S WORK
ANOTHER ARGUMENT FOR
VOTES FOR WOMEN
ANNA STEVENSON SHOWS THAT
WOMEN CAN FOLLOW PURSUITS
OF MEN

New York, March 9.-Benjamin M.
Shay woke in his little room on AM
sterdam avenue last night to discover
an unknown woman holding his trou-
sers by the neck with one hand while
the other explored the pockets. Shay
couldn't remember having married her.
He demanded an explanation for ap-
propriating this wifely privilege to
herself

woman, "and I'm looking for my rain
coat"
"You didn't expect to find it in the
pocket of my pants, did you?" asked
the irate Shay.
Having a strong bunch that the
woman wasn't on the level, he slipped
into a bath robe and left her to call
the JanltOr When he came back the
intruder had vanished But Shay ran
out and raised such a row that cou-
pie of cops nabbed the fleeing woman
at the next corner. Investigation
brought out the fact that she had gone
into every. room in the place and
told each startled occupant that she
was looking for her raincoat.
At the police station the woman
gave her name as Anna Stevenson. She
said that she wasn't a lady burglar
But the judge-who is a skeptical old
thing held Anna in $1,000 bond.

WOMAN ADVANCED 1000
REASONS She SHOULD

Atlanta, March 9.-There are 1000
different reasons why she should have
a divorce from her husband, accord
ing to the petition filed with the su-
perior court of this county by Mrs.
Jesse C. Pruitt, Jr
1t is not these thousand reasons,
however, which finally impelled her to
seek divorce. Like the proverbial
straw that broke the camels back, it
was the Observation-Disclosures reason
that did the business. Mrs. Pruitt
declares that her husband kidnapped
their child and took it away from her
and refused to let her see it.
In the meantime through the aid Of
the detectives, she has got her baby
