MAY MURDER THIS WIFE.-Ca1

any of The Day Book readers tell me
what to do with man that is drunk
four days in the week and then he
comes home to abuse me. If he comes
home at 8 O'Clock in the afternoon
and his supper is not ready he calls
me all the names he can think OF
because a workngman should have
his meals when he gets home). Yes,
when he gets home sometimes he
comes at II or IL p. M he often tries
to kill me. 1 can have him arrested,
but when he comes out of the Bride
well he would hunt me up and kill
me. 1 know he would. He has often
threatened to kill me and then him
self. Can someone offer any sugges-
tion?-Janey.

GETTING AND PAYING.-I n

NE ING AND PH1ING.-l note
Fred Ford's complaint about loan
sharks and fail to see wherein he
was wronged. The money belonged
to the shark. He had right to re-
fuse to lend it and consequently
right to fix terms on which he would
lend. AS a matter of fact, the
charge of So for six weeks on a $40
loan is much smaller profit than
the average merchant charges on
his goods in spot cash transaction.
Mr.. Ford was not compelled to take
the money, but the chances are that
he could not find a man in Chicago,
least of all one of those who howl
against loan sharks, who would have
taken the same risk as the shark and
charged less.
Having secured SO by agreeing
to pay $13 back in certain install
ments, Mr.. Ford was in honor bound
to keep his agreement. 1 hope he
did so. Whether the contract was
legal or not would cut no figure with
an honorable man. He will keep his
word regardless of what the law may
have to say about it. The man who
won't pay a debt unless the law
compels him is the one who will get
out of paying a legal debt if he can.

URGE MERRIAM FOR

URGE MERRIAM FOR COVER
NOR.-Ald. Charles E Merriam is
today the logical leader and holds the
confidence of more Republican Pro-
gressives and neutral voters than any
other man in the state of Illinois.
Aid. Merriam's candidacy and nom
ination for the Office of governor
would unite the Republicans in this
state and have a beneficial influence
with the national Progressives.
The Republican Progressives will
volunteer their solid support if he will
come to their rescue. 1t is also pos
sible that he can rally more votes
than all the Republican candidates in
the field without money!.
The alderman's qualifications as
Republican are in his candidacy for
reelection to the city council. Pre-
ceding the February, 1915, primary
he was duly recommended by the reg
ular 7th Ward Republican organiza-
ton, and thereby became the regular
nominee of that primary without OPP
position.
Aid. Merriam has been opposed by
groups of political. conspirators that
can be classified as follows: Party
buzzard- bosses, party pledge-break-
ers, party undertakers and graVe-dig-

For how can one who hasn't suffered

his throbs of these emotions by: de-

something. @
We don't want to have to pity any

GLASS HOUSES.-It must have
been We editor who captioned John
Tweedle's article last Monday, which
treated of the latest Belgian horror.
The dismal details show that in the
German army there are rankers who
have not gallantry to fire high. And
so, when the Germans murdered the
ministering angel, Brother Tweedle
quit neutrality and became an anti
kulturite. Since his heart moved him
to do so do not censure him.
Let's be logical; the incident was
not unprecedented nor characterize
ically Germanic. Charge it up to that
anachronistic terror, war, which is
tantamount to observing that hell is
hell, that the limit is the limit The
Germans seem to be as ferocious in
war as they are benefcent in peace.
But when one is discussing such a
monstrous mess he might ask, did
ever nation at war refrain from vii
liany when vilainy promised to fur
Their military plan?
We have heard how Cromwell's
English soldiers playfully tossed Irish
babies from bayonet to bayonet; how
