This, with but little doubt, is
the historic mission of women
They will not escape a certain
tanning by politics. But that thew
should be permanently tanned
find impossible to believe. Rath-
er they will subdue politics to
their purposes, remold it nearer
to their hearts desire, change If
as men would never dream of
changing It. wreck it savagely in
the face of our masculine protest
and merrily rebuild it anew in the
face of our despair. With their
aid we may at last achieve what
we seem to be unable to achieve
unaided-a democracy.
Meanwhile let us understand
this suffrage movement. Let us
understand that we have in mill
fancy rather than in Cancellation;
in action, rather than in wisdom,
the keynote of woman in politics.
And we males, who have so long
played in our politics as innocent
games of war shall have an
opportunity to fight in earnest at
the side of the Valkyrs,"

In 1925. at the age OF 10. Maury

The wife wants a change from
the surroundings and the things

the man wants a change from
what he has been doing all day,
and the environment that he has
been in, and the pity of it is that
these two desires are diametrical-
ly opposed to each other. Hence
these quarrels and reproaches
and tears
The man complains: Ny wife

look at the matter from the 9TH

Certainly the man who has
been on a terrific strain all day
that taxed body and brain TO the
very breaking point is entitled
to quiet evenings rest at home
in which to build himself up to
meet the strenuous struggle of
the next day. He needs 1t. What
is more, he must have it if he is
to hold his own in the fierce COM
petition of modern business life.
No man whose wife drags him
around of evenings to theaters
and the opera and parties and
dances and late suppers where
he eats and drinks too much can
hold his own against the man
who comes to his work with
rested nerves and a brain cleared

The Amusement Question
. . .

to places of amusement in the
evening rather than the after
noon. Scat! Any woman who
takes that attitude is inspired not
by love, but by the spirit of do
nestle tyranny. She's determined
TO make an unwilling man go
with her just to show that she
can triumph over him.
However, compromise is a good
thing in matrimony, as it is else
where in the world, and it has al
ways seemed to me that it would
be a good way to settle this
question for the wife to demand
and receive a cooks privilege of
an evening off every week. It
wouldn't hurt man either in
health or pocket to give his Wife
one little treat a week, and it
would freshen and brighten her
up amazingly, and keep her from
nagging him the balance of the
time.
AS Thursday is the maids day
out, so let Saturday night be sa-
cred with husbands to the enter
tanning Of their wives. On that
evening let them take their wives
to the theater, or to a restau-
rant for dinner, or a friends for
bit of a party. 1t would break
the deadly grind of domesticity
for the women and rob them of
their cause of complaint.
For after all, marriage is no
picnic to woman, and just being
married TO a man isn't all the
amusement she requires. Nor is
it exciting to spend all your even
ings sitting up looking at man
who is as dumb as an oyster and
as unresponsive as a clam.
Matrimony needs some sort of
outside amusement to cheer it
along, for both men and women.

fR. FLOYD DELL, under the
Nl title Women as World

through Forbes &. Co, of Chicago,
some six or seven studies of the
present leaders OF the feminist
movement. Mr.. Dell gives us this
rather poignant argument for
woman suffrage:
Can anyone doubt the effect
which the mergence of women
into politics will have, eventually,
on politics? Eventually, for Gin

ence) the decorous example Of
men will rule them at first But

have an element impatient Of re-

stomach at peace with itself

Many a case of nervous break
down that comes to man just
as he has success almost in hand
is wholly and entirely due to his
wife's mania for society. She's
rushed her husband from enter

he should have been resting and

simply collapses under the dou-

A Wrong View.
SO the woman whose love for
her husband does not make her
willing to stay quietly at home
with him of evenings should be
prompted to do so by her inter-
est. If she wants to conserve his
energies and strength and in
crease his money earning power
and hurry him on the way to sue
cess, let her encourage him in
sticking to his own fireside at
nights instead of hunting up
amusement on the outside.
There is no reason why any
woman in these days of innu-
merable women's clubs, of hen
luncheons, of bridge whist par
ties, of matinees, of afternoon
tango teas, who can't get all the
diversion that she is entitled to
have in the daytime. She does
not need evening parties to sus-
tain her spirits, in the cases
where her husband doesn't want
to go out after dinner.
OF course, many women, with
a virtuous air, say that they
don't enjoy things so much unless
their husbands are along, and
that therefore they prefer to go

worth of gold that was added to
the worlds resources in that year
while at the same time the total
production of the worlds other
mines fell to 100000, 900, which
was SIG, 100000 less than in 1909.
This state of affairs, Mr.. De-
Launay ayers, is becoming moro
strained every year, because
neither in the United States, nor
Australia, nor Canada are enough
new discoveries made to compen-
safe for the gradual exhaustion Of
the old ones, The face of the
world has been nearly overrun BY
the gold seekers, and, except per-
haps on the Antarctic continent,
there is not much space left in
which to look for 1t. 1t fees be-
fore civilization, or rather civili-
cation ticks it up like prairie
fire, destroying what 1t can not
replace. Gold" says Mr.. De
Launay, significantly, has al
ways come from the frontiers Of
civilization, and before long CIV
ilization will have spread every
where"
Interesting Items.
l can not here enter into Mr..
DeLaunay's discussion OF the con
nection between abundance Of
gold and high cost of living, or of
the peculiar reasons why at the
present time, when the world is
threatened with a falling off in
the gold supply, prices should
continue to soar, for all that
would demand an article by itself
But there are one or two other
facts which he brings out that are
well worth knowing and storing
away in the memory.
For instance, 1t is very inter
esting to be told what proportion
of the total annual supply Of gold
is turned aside from the money
vaults of the great nations, and
used up in the arts of decora-
ton and personal display, for
jewelry, watches, etc. This, &C
cording to Mr.. DeLaunay,
amounts to from rs to 80 per
cent, or something more than
one-quarter of the whole. As
luxurious tastes spread, the pro-
portion becomes larger. In an
other article, some time ago,
quoted what a well-known stat
istician said Of the annual dis
appearance of gold in India, which
swallows up many millions that
are never seen in the form Of
money.
Another fact interesting to
know is that the ratio OF the
quantity OF gold held as money to
the paper money credits Of the
world tends to grow smaller.
From 1902 to 1912 the total stock
of gold money increased by about
s2,S00,000,00o, while the amount
of bank notes, etc, increased
$5,OOO,O00,000. Thus, If the entire
world were suddenly called upon
to pay its debt in gold, It couldn't
do It, which simply shows that
the real wealth of the world-in
its lands and all that they pro-
duce-is far greater than all It's
gold is capable Of representing.

nROBABLY there is no other
one thing over which there
is more friction in the av-
erage family than there is over
the amusement question.
The man who has been hard at
work all day meeting new people,
seeking new faces, adjusting his
mind to continually changing in
dividuals and points Of view,
comes home tired. He wants to
be quiet and rest. Generally he
is so nerve worn that he doesn't
even want to talk or to be talked
to. 1t seems to him that no other
amusement in the world is quite
so delightful as Just to browse
over pipe and paper in silence.
a Chance.
The woman who has been hard
at work all day in the home is
also weary when night comes,
but her work has been monotony
personified. She has done over
and over again tasks that have
become purely mechanical
through constant repetition.
There's nothing in sweeping a
floor or washing dishes, or sew
Ing up a seam, or darning stock
ings to exercise the mind and
keep 1t alert. During the entire
day she has possibly not seen a
fresh face or had a single per
son with whom to exchange an
intelligent thought.
So, when her days work is over
she Graves something new and
different something with the
thrill Of excitement or interest in
it. She wants to visit, to go to
the theater, to at least take a
walk on the street and see the

n
vi sor in the School of Mines
ard in the School of Roads
and Bridges, Paris, is one of the
worlds greatest authorities on
the subject of gold. He has not,
l believe, acquired any notable
quantity Of gold for himself, but
he has accumulated an enormous
amount of information about gold.
/ have reason to think that if a
gold mine We're offered to him,
he would decline the gift, on the
ground that the care of it would
take too much valuable time.
Yet the time that he would
grudge to the work of getting gold
out of the earth he has willingly
devoted to the less patiently prof
table occupation of watching the
gold that others dig, in order TO
see what is done with it, and
what finally becomes of it. Most
people have very little compre
hension of this devotion to knowf-
edge, and no sympathy with it,
but everybody is, nevertheless.
interested in its results, and I
venture to spread out some of
these results here, as l have gath
cred them from recent publica-
~~tions Of Mr.. De Laumay.
Perhaps only mind Of a GER
tain grain can really regard
knowledge as better than pelf, but
all will confess that the next most
pleasing thing to possessing a
great deal Of gold ones self is
knowing what others who do pos
sess 1t do with 1t, and what the
chances are that, as time goes
on. the world will have more or
less of it to be distributed among
it's inhabitants.
Known Facts.
We all know that as the popu-
lation of the earth increases, and
the different peoples composing
it adopt more and more q COM
mon manner of life, which for
many of them means more IuXu-
rious ways of living, the demand
for gold (the universal standard
< of value) continually grows great
er. But many may be surprised
to learn that outside of the Trans
vaal the production of the gold
mines is falling off so that as Mr..
De Launay puts it the entire
world IS becoming more and more
dependent upon that little aurif-
erous gold producing) corner of
it, the Witwatersrand."
Mr.. De Launay shows that the
fact that the gold deposits of the
world are being exhausted with
out new ones being discovered in
sufficient number to keep up the
rate Of supply has been obscured
by the immense productiyeness Of
South African mines which serv-
ed to mask the relative failure of
those in other parts of the world.
Thus the annual production be-
came four and half times as
great in 1910 as it had been in
1890, but 1t was the Witwaters-
rand which was chiefly RESPONSE
BILE for the increased total. In
1912 that favored spot of the
earth produced almost 40 per
cent Of the nearly $500,000,00O
