BURDEN ALWAYS ON WOMEN
Exercise of All Her Ingenuity and Adaptability Is Demanded of
 JobIess Mans Wife

There has been much anxiety at the city hall over the displacement of cer- tain employees who were deemed su. perf1uous, and the approaching de, capitation" of others, according to the Philadelphia Ledger Quite apart from the question of whether political reprsal was an actuating motive of removal, the curtain might be lifted upon the distress created in many a home by the fact that the breadwin. ner has lost his occupation-but into the merits of these cases it is impos- sible to enter here. Any man who ac- cepts a position under city. state or the giddy vicissitudes of fortune s wheel in politics. In the industrial world as we'll many men have been Topped off the pay roll and have found themselves in dire extremities to pro. vide for the sustenance of those de pendent on them
 But the brunt of 1t all falls more heavily upon the woman AS in war time the more piteous suffering was that of her who was left at home to await tidings of fatality or injury. so the whole weight Of business calamity (and great deal of business is war) comes upon womans shoulders, her heart and her anxious mind.
 She must think for all the family she must plan things woman can dc to make up for the absence of the pay envelope. Her fingers fly to weave and stitch, to wash and iron, to make preserves. She takes care of chil- dren, she teaches them, she becomes a purchasing agent, she acts as secre tary. All the adroit and marvellous in- genuity and adaptability of the Amer. ican woman are bent to the end of making living for those she loves. A man out of work who has that one great treasure of a true helpmeet has not lost his fortune, and he cannot fail

Suffering from eye strain who at the same time is enjoying the best of health, Is often at a loss to know whom he should con- suit. He does not feel he needs a physician, yet he knows he needs relief.
 Many people speak of nearsight- edness, farsightedness, astigma- tism and muscular trouble, as though they were some form Of eye disease, but they are no more a disease than is a small ear or a large nose.

GOVERNORS MANSION
SURROUNDED BY STORES

Atlanta Feb. 5.-The destruction OF
tie historic Leyden House on Peach
tree next to the executive mansion,
means that the tumble-down home CT
Georgia's chief executives will now be
entirely surrounded by stores, garages
and other business buildings.
The disappearance of the Leyden
house is expected to hasten the action
Of the legislature in providing a new
mansion, since a magnificent site has
already been oehred the state, on al
vantageous terms, in the ideal Druid
Hills section of the city.
The Leyden house was built prior to
the war by Major Leyden, and with its
distinctly Southern architecture was
considered one of the handsomest
homes in Atlanta. In more recent
years it has been used for various COM
mercial and business purposes.

CONTRACT GIVEN TO WEST CON-
STRUCTI0N FOR $47,400-W0RK
TO START WITHIN THREE
WEEKS

Cordele, Ca, Feb. 5.-(SpeciaID-At
a meeting of the Cordele bond commits
sion, composed of 0. S. Bazemore,
chairman; DR.. D. ]. Williams and ).
slade, together with their engineer,
Arthur Pew, held in the offices of DR..
Williams yesterday afternoon, the
contract for paving the streets was
awarded to the West Construction
company, of Chattanooga, Tenn, for
sheet asphalt.
1t is estimated that from two to
three weeks will be required for the
successful bidders to get the material
and machinery on the ground and or
ganize their force of hands, and tn 1t
work of laying the paving will begin
Immediately thereafter.
There were a large number of bids
received for various kinds of paving
and at various prices. Taking into con,
sideration the character of the pave
ment as established by long usage in
Chattanooga Atlanta and other cities
visited recently by the bond commits
sion and the long experience and es-
tablished reputation OF the contractor,
the commission rested their decision
on the West Construction Co, as offer
ing the most satisfactory bid in every
respect. This bid, including the nee
essary grading of the streets, amounts
to $76,400 covering 10000 square yards
of pavement.
After grading the streets to such
a depth as may be necessary to keep
the surface at about its present level,
the ground will be thoroughly COM
pressed with a heavy steam roller. On
this will be laid on a base of concrete
five inches thick, and on this concrete
base will be laid the asphalt, three
inches thick, consisting of a binder
course and a wearing surface The
natural lake asphalt from South
America will be used
The price at which the contract
was let was considered by those best
in position to know as being very rea-
sonable in every way. All of the
bond issue will not be required to

MODERN CINDERELLA
VISITS THE THEATRE

Atlanta, Feb. 5.-A modern Cinder
ella, who dropped her dainty high
heeled slipper in the lobby at the A.
lanta theatre, and heroieally let i
where it fell, in order not to lose d
place in the front row of the balcony
for the matinee, was cheered and ap.
plauded yesterday afternoon.
The incident was as pretty as any,
thing that transpired on the. stage. The
charming young woman, a petite bru-
nette, was caught in the rush and
whirled along by the crowds which hal
gathered to see Mrs. Fiske in The
High Road, one of the big plays of the
season.
AS the crowd assembled the marble
staircase toward the balcony, her
Upper came off. To have lost her
place, as like many other Atlanta la
dies, she had decided for an amusing
change and also for the sake of econ.

where seats are not reserved by nun.

As it was she ensconced hersel.
safely in the front row, curled her
silk-clad but slipperless foot up in the
chair and sat on it, and TRANQUILITY
watched the first act.
At the end of the act an usher APP
peared at the entrance to the gallery
with the missing slipper dainty

Streets of Cordele To
Be Paved With Asphalt

pave the streets, originally voted Oh
by the city council, With the bends
voted and the money in hand, it is
probable that some additional streets
will be paved.
The average length of life of as
phalt paving is from twenty to thirty
years, and with reasonable traffic over
it, this time has been extended in a
number of instances to forty years
before resurfacing the asphalt is re-
quired.
The sheet asphalt paving is almost
as noiseIess as wood black paving if
not fully so, and is much cheaper than
wood block or the brick.

GEORGIA SUFFRAGETTEs

They have found that Colorado al

that Butte, Montana, has a woman city
attorney; that sixty towns in Germany
have women policemen; that nearly
one-tenth of the appointments in civic
and legislative positions in Pennsyl-
vania are now women.
They have found that Arcadia, III,
has a woman mayor and that nearly
all the city official positions in that
town are filled by women.
They have learned that many women
are successfully practicing law in New

state commissioner of education in
California and receives a salary of 81
