Soldiers Can't See Wives.

Paris, May "a habit developed
by French wives Of visiting their SOL
der husbands at the front has led
General Joffre to prohibit such visits
and warn the husbands of punishment
for their wives disregard Of this Or
der. The perseverance of the wives
in eluding the military guards is re-
markable in that it is very difficult for
any noncombatant to get to the French
lines, even the official war correspond
ents being allowed to go there only
for very brief periods. The following
order was issued by the commander Of
one infantry regiment:
Every married man has the duty, a.
required by civil law. to strive for the
obedience OF his wife. Therefore every
married soldier must be in q position to
prevent his wife from visiting him. The
worse for the married men if they have
not sufficient authority over their wives
to enforce the obedience demanded by
the civil law. Therefore they are to be
made responsible for the obedience Of
their wives. II in former times a mar
ket woman succeeded in getting into the
army, inasmuch as it was not possible to
throw her into prison, her husband was
imprisoned instead, since he was made
responsible for the poor military training
of his wife. That method was not so
foolish as it appears to be at first glance,
and it will be applied again In such cases
as occur.
+ President May See Arizona Launched.
New York, May 5.-The new super
Dreadnought Arizona, of which more

at the navy yard in Brooklyn, will be
launched early in June, and as soon

PArRonlzE HOME BUSINESS

AACl Z 10 oIlc lIllS CudC ITO IOWIl
can afford to lose sight of, and
that is it's own industries. 1t is a
wrong policy to send away for
anything that is sold at home, and
a still worse one to send else
where for articles manufactured
in your home town. Any man or
woman that does SO may be penny
wise, but he is certainly pound
foolish.
1t is wrong to send to mail Or
der houses for anything we need
to eat, wear or use, if that thing
can be bought at home, because
it takes away the profit, whatever
that is, from your home town and
gives it to another town, and be-
sides, it seldom, or never, aids the
buyer. If you will give your home
dealer the cash in advance for the
goods you send for, as you do the
mail order house, he will sell to
you just as cheap as you can buy
ofthe foreign dealer and pay the
freight, which you have to do, and
sometimes cheaper.
But it is still worse to patron
ize foreign factories for articles
made at home, because you not
only lessen your home factory
profits, but you discourage home
production and lessen employ
ment here. No factory, of any
kind whatsoever here, can run
long if you take away from it the
home trade. What every factory
in Wahpeton needs and what it is
entitled to, is home support.
For example, Wahpeton people
should buy Wahpeton made flour
and bread, because they are just
as good and just as cheap as flour
and bread bought elsewhere, and
they need your patronage. They
also help to pay your taxes and
help to make Wahpeton a bigger
and better town, while these for
eign institutions are doing Meth
er.
Your newspaper plants are fac
tories,and no institutions in the
city are doing more to advertise
and build up the city and sur
rounding country than your news
papers. What would Wahpetor
be without them? They both neeG
your patronage and both are en-
titled to it. They are continually
calling attention to the improve
ments that are being made here,
and throughout the country and
thus boosting the city and county
Your newspapers are the mirrors
into which all strangers look to
see what kind of a town Wahpe-
ton is, and their advertising col
umns show the world outside who
its live business men are and
what they are doing to make the
town a more attractive place tC
live in. Boost every legitimate in
dustry in the city by patronizimg
them and all that you spend in
this way, and more, too, will come
back to you in increased business
for yourselves and better and
bigger city to live in, and will
make your property here more
valuable, too.
Patronize home industries, and
especially home products.
