PANDERING TO MEN.
TX Vt

" yHEN does man get to know
\A/ his wife? Does he ever
v v honestly know her" I'm
won dering considerably.
Doesnt { woman's lifelong instinct
tend toward a certain sex reserve where
man hrutally dlsccts his emotions
with candor wholly masculine?
Every once in a while l find myself
peering appalled, into some hitherto un-
suspected characteristic of Mary's. and

Mary. find. pandcrs eternally to the
men in room! Why? DO all women
do that? I've begun to watch.
Tonight at d bridge party there was
technical bridge discussion under way.
Likewise there was a good looking
young chap who very Civilly took it
upon himself to explain the point for
Mary's express edifiCation She listen
ed very MISUNDERSTANDING is at her best
with certain rapt eNpressiveness in
her eycs-and there was a delicate def
erenCe in her attitude that would have
hattered many an older and wiser man.
Finally she shook her head with a
distraCt.ng little frOwn and gazed soul
fully up into her partners gaze
You know" she said with beautiful
sincerity. 1t takes a mans brain to
ferret forth thing like that-tt really
does"
Now, knowing Mary's mental limita-
tions. there have been times when her
remark would have seemed to me but
the careless and logical thing for her to
say. but tonight gazed at her with
honest amazement. For. in the first
place. Mary had explained that point in
full to me once before-in the second
she knew more about bridge than the
young fool she was so subtiy fatterine
That by the way. tempts another di-
gression Of wonderment.
How is II that women who have SEEM
ingly but little brain and no memory
can apply themselves with such mar
vellous aptitude to the technical points
of real game like bridge? Mary never
can remember when were out Of soap
and matches. but I've known her to re-

some men are so lazy that they are
optimistic. Others are so pessirnistic
that they are too lazy to turn on the
springs Of energy. The one type oi
laziness Is the salt of effort. the other
is as the ten wet blankets who returned
in alarm from Palestine with terrifying
tales. to plant the seeds of despair en-
all sides. %. .r.r.
Laziness Is often unconscious. Busi-
ness men who are noted for their hard
work are often so lazy that they pile
up fat as fuel for heart disease, apo
plexy. kidney ailments and similar
fuels of disease. s..f
The man who does not work hard
at his play Is one who labors. but who
labors in vain. This is the kind If in
dolence which prevents progress.
Effort. true enough, is always whoIo-
some and full of promise, but idleness,
too has its conquests. Honest rec ,yni-
ton goes nowadays with the fine art Of
scientific laziness. Shop management
factory economy. and saving the by
products for ultimate profit are all vari-
eties of virtuous lethargy.
Labor Of this sort is the delight that
physics pain. From labor comes health,
from health contentment springs. Con-
tentment Is really another name COR
comfortable laziness.
Labor with what zeal we will.
Something still remains undone,
Something uncompleted still
Waits the rising Of the sun.
There Is a kind of animated, aggress-
i've laziness which. like the swan. With
bootless labor swims against the tide
and spends strength with overwhelming
waves. This misspent energy Is really
worse than actual idleness. II saps
vigor and eats into the very vitals of
health and we'll being.

constitution, these to be in turn submitted to

constitution these to be In turn submitted to
direct vote of all the people of the state.
There is an attempt afoot to create an i'm
preston in the minds of some that If they vote
for the holding of state constitutional conven-
ton they will thereby commit themselves to some
new and wholly vague constitutional changes.
This impression is furthered wherever possible
by those who do not wish to see this constitu-
tional matter get directly into the hands of the
people. The people, however, ought to see to it,
without fail, that the matter is brought directly
under their control by voting for state consti-
tutional convention.
The matter of new constitution ought to in
terest all classes of citizens in all parties. From
this time on men who have an intelligent concep-
ton of this matter ought to interest themselves
to do all they can among them to consider this
matter of holding a constitutional convention
and to vote for it. In the state it will doubtless
be necessary to get fully 100000 votes for the
holding of state constitutional convention in
order to give the proposal safe margin. Inas-
much as many papers throughout the state
are keeping so quiet on this matter of a new con-
stitution it behooves every man to constitute
himself a committee of one to work from now
until election day for constitutional convention

ing matter ?-Lafayette Courier.
