Dear Mrs. Thompson; Ny husband
is In the penitentiary and my mother
wants me 20 get a divorce. But I love
my husband and he loves me. and we
have two children. But my mother
says the disgrace is killing her. and
she is after me all of the time until
am nearly crazy. So please tell me
what you think about this. c. 3. a.
Your loyalty 70 your husband in the
time OF his disgrace viii probably do
more 10 reform him than the prison
life will do. Your mother has lived
her life in her own way. probably Tell
her that you must be allowed 10 live
yours in your own way. and that this
may include faith in your husbands
better nature, and that you intend 20
give him another chance TO be the right
kind OF q father 10 his little children.
Dear Mrs. Thompson; I am 10 and
wish 20 have your advice. I met fell
low one afternoon. He was walking
past our house and played a joke on
me by asking where a certain number
was. Then afterward he said he want
ed 10 know the names of the people
pose 10 know me. I have found out
that this fellow is very well known. He
has asked me for a great many dates.
but I have refused him, as I am not
TO accept. think a great deal
OF him. Please tell me how I can go
places with him and how 10 get him
back again. as he has dropped me
since cannot go with him.
INQUISITIVE.
The yong man took a very uncon-
veutional way of getting acquainted.
and because Of this I cannot blame
your parents for not letting you go
with him. He may. however. be a very
fine boy. Have your father investigate
his character. since he is so we'll
known. and il he is all right and your
parents consent, have a little party OF
four or eight some night and invite
him.

yes" for my answer? A LOVER.
Don't be so sentimental. The girl
isn't a goddess or an angel and she
viii not love you as long as you con-
slider her as such. Popular girls like
the men who are Indifferent to them.
Let her show marked signs Of wanting
you before you dare to propose.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am Is and
am going with a fellow my own age.
This fellow has asked me for several

what TO DO so that he viii not get in

As q rule a boy who asks a girl 10
go 10 an undesirable place has an IN
desirable character himself. But IN
this case the boy may not realize that
the place is not all right. Therefore
tell him that your mother does not
mind you going with him, but she does
not like the places he takes you. Il

Plan Proposed to Advertise Ohio.

Thomas P. Riddle, of Lima, proposes
that the $4,000 appropriated by Ohio
for an exhibit of agricultural products
at the Panama-Pacifc exposition be
used for advertising Ohio, not only at
the exposition, but at every big city
along both the northern and southern
route to San Francisco, by equipping
a train that will. tell the agricultural
facts about u state. He makes
some startling statements, as follows:
l. Western states, by advertising,
have captured $1,000 Ohio citizens dur
ing the past Is years. 2. Ohio is los
ing farmers at the rate of 1000 a year
because she does not advertise to hold
them. g.. Western states are selling
us apples, meat and flour, which we
buy because they are advertised. Mr..
Riddle say and we dare say he Is
right, that Ohio affords ~unequalled op-
p~ortunities for farmers, that we grow
better apples than any western state,
that we produce better and cheaper
meat than any western state, and that
we make better and cheaper -four. And
yet the western states, by advertising,
take half our home market for apples,
meat and flour because they advertise.
Advertising is a prodigious force in
influencing people in the selection of
homes and the purchase of food. Mr..
Riddle thinks it is time to use 1t to
protect Ohio and her products.

Drummers to Vote BY Mail.

Seventy thousands travelling sales
men in Ohio will be enabled to
cast their votes on thu Saturday or
Monday preceding election day If q
bill to be introduced in the Senate by
Senator Wickline, of Akron, next week
is enacted into law. Voting by mail is
also provided for. Travelling men
would thus be relieved of expense and
inconvenience incident to remaining
at home during the early part of cleo
ton week. Thousands who " OF
rarely exercise their franchise privi-
leges for these reasons will be induced
to vote for local, state and federal of,
ficers, it is expected. Under the Wick
line bill travelling men will be allowed
to cast their ballots at the Office OF
the County Election Board either three
days Or one day before the regular
election day.
A provision in the bill would estab-
fish a mild form of compulsory voting.

larly need not register, only once in
their lifetime. Oregon has just adopt
ed such a measure. The absent voting
plan is simple and gives elasticity to
the present rigid election laws. 1t is
now in successful operation in other
states. A voter who knows he is tc
be absent from his home on election
day may notify the election board BY
mail and secure from it a blank bal
lot, together with an identification
stub and envelope. He then goes be
fore a notary, wherever he happens tt
be, within or outside the state, on re
ceiving the ballot, and there, aftel
marking it secretly, places it in the
envelope with the Identification stul
and signs it in the presence of the
notary.

S0L0NS FAVOR
OF QUITTING
SEEK ADJOURNMENT OF THE
CFiO LEGISLATURE ON
MARCH 10.
GIVE US A LONG REST
Say the State Is in Need of Good, Long
Rest-Reso!ution Creates Excite
ment When Introduced.
(By Denny Donovan.l

Columbus, GA joint resolution
calling for final adjournment of the
legislature on March 10 was intro
duced in the house by Representative
Yeatman and in the senate by Senator
Pink. The resolution fell like a bomb
in the senate. Administration leaders
in mediately demanded to know why
1t had been introduced, this fact indi,
eating that the majority leaders had
not been consulted. In the house the
resolution created CONSERVATION, be-
cause the Democrats claimed that to
pass it would mean virtual abandon
ment of whatever program there is.
While it is not admitted in any
quarter that the purpose of the lreso-
luton is to break the deadlock over
the flood prevention bills, prominent
members of both sides say it probably
will have that tendency. The temper
of the administration leaders on the
resolution are indicated by the motion
OF Majority Floor Leader Howard in
the senate to refer it to the finance
committee. 1t is said the house reso.
luton will also be treated lightly.
Strong pressure vas brought to bear
on the senate drainage and irrigation
committee to let the bills come out
of committee, but Senator Carver
stood fast and succeeded in delaying
a report on them at least until Thurs
day. One of the majority leaders de
clared that the adjournment resolution
was aimed at the head of the admins
tration and declared that he had good
reasons for making that statement.

Costs $4,000 To Pass a Bill.

1t costs something like $4,000 for
the legislature to pass a bill. Sounds
pretty big, yes; but here are the fig
ures: The estimates are that it costs
from $4,000 to $4,000 each day the
legislature is in session. Since the
present legislature has been holding
sessions, or alleged sessions about
four days a week, means an expendi-
ture of something like $4,000 or S12,-
600 a week. To put it low, say $10,-
900. The legislature has passed its
seventh week. The total expenditure,
then, would be somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000. Let's make it
conservative and say $1,000. Up to
last Thursday the legislature had pass
ed four bills-none of them of any
.consequence-so you see about what
it's costing the state in good round
dollars. To say that those four bills
cost the state $4,000 is not putting
it very strong, if you believe figures.
And all of this took place under
the Republican administration that
charged extravaganza against the Cox
administration.

Boat Said to Have Been Wrecked Dur

Six other Vessels Sent to Bottom.

London, Feb. 26.-The German sub
marine blockade about the British isles
has been drawn closer. The govern
ment is preparing to take the most
drastic measures against the Teutons.
and in furtherance of this scheme Lord
Charles Beresford will propose to Pre-
mier Asquith in parliament that all
Germans caught sinking undefended
vessels without al attempt at rescue
be publicly hanged as pirates, if they
are captured.
News comes from Amsterdam that
the Dutch government has seized the
merchant ship Hanna following dis
covery of 5000 pounds of copper hid
den in her hold. which, it was charged,
was to be smuggled into Germany.
The Dutch also are considering calling
to arms the men of the 1915 class to
combat any possible attempt 10 VIC
late Hollands neutrality.
Several more vessels have fallen
victim to the German raiders-one oil
them an armed merchantmen, the Clan
MacNaughton, with which ESQ men
wen down.
The British imiralty announced
on Wednesday that the Clan Mac
N~aughton. an armed cruiser, has been
missing since February 8, and 1t is
feared has been lost. The vessel was
under the command of Robert Jeffrys.
The Clan MacNsughton carried 20
officers and a crew Of 261 men.

The admiralty states that the Clan
MacNaughton is believed to have been
lost as the result of a storm that
ragged on February 8, but it is posi-
BILE that she was sunk by a German
submarine. =
The steamship Rio Parana, laden
with coal, was sunk eve miles east
of the pier at Eastbourne. England
There is little doubt that the loss was
due to a German submarine. The Rio
Parana's crew of 81 men were rescued
by another steamer and taken into
New Haven.
The other vessels reported ost are:

Liquidatins Officers on Pay Rolls.

E~iquioatih9 OT1cers on ray HoItS.
Investigation of the state bank SUI
p~erintendent's department under the
last administration was resumed by
the joint committee of the general as
sembly. The banks whose affairs
we're inquired into we're the Mer,
chants and Miners bank, at Nelson
vile, O.; the Citizens National bank,
OF Beech City; the Plain City bank, at
Plain City, and the Security Savings
bank, of Columbus. The principal fea-
ture was the testimony of Chief Ex-
aminer John A. Bliss that, although
large sums were paid for salary and
expenses in %liquidating these banks,
there was nothing to show when the
services were rendered, or of what
they consisted. From the Nelsonvi1le
bank it was shown that Daniel ].
Ryan received S2,562.S 80 salary and ex-
penses. and that Claude Meeker, Co
lnmbus broker, a. paid for selling
securities which the new First Ma
tional bank had a contract to take
back at par any time it was asked to
dc SO. It was shown that 1iquidating
officers and examiners were on the pay
rolls of several banks at the same
time, and that in one of the banks,
an institution with assets of only $8S,
600, the expenses of liquidation were
$~7,274.97. Attorney Robert Black, OF
Cincinnati, received $213.90 from the
Beech City bank, being at the same
time a member Of the general as
sembly.

MUST Be PROTECTED
Proper tariff Duties Would Es-
tabIish Industry.
Wise Legislation Must Do lts Part To
ward the Creation of an Addi-
tional Source of Wealth to
the United States.

Higher tariff protection, according
to the report of a committee of the
American Chemical society, is abso
lutely needed. The present duty of
30 per cent ad valorem on imported
dyes has been in force many years,
but it has not created an American
coal-tar industry. The committee
holds that a specific duty of 7A cents
a pound must be added to the 80 per
cent ad valorem to give real pro-
lection. The small specific outy
would shut out the cheap dyes which
are so largely used here, while the 80
per cent duty would be sufficient. as
now. on high-priced dyes. !.
There is plenty of raw material
produced in this country, the present
production of coal tar being sufficient
for supplying the textile industries
with dyestuffs. But the industry can
not be established hera without bet
ter tariff protection. The problem is
whether the public is willing to pay
Tor controlling it's own sources-for in
the long run the cost would fall on
the general public. Textile manufac.
turers, naturally enough, have always
opposed raising the duty on dyes. It
Is an interesting question whether
their present difficulties, including
their lack Of many desired colors, and
much higher prices for those they de
obtain, will work a change of mind in
them. The conclusion of the debate
is that we can have a eeal-tar In
dustry if we want to make the neees-
sary changes. For a decision, it is
