On every verse, Farewell, my dear ''
 The poor young man who is irnbued with the ambitious, get-rieh-quick dea of marrying a. rich girl, getting in a few moments at the altar a fortune such as many a man works hard his whole life through to accumulate, should figure the situation out a bit, The roses of wealth are delightful, but they have many a thorn which wound the hand that would ruthless1y snatch them.
 The courting of the heiress may go on smoothly enough, for the girl is in toxicated with loves tenderness. But it does not take long for her to open her eyes after the marriage knot is tied If a casual friend puts the ques- ton to a bride. What business is your husband in ?,,' and the husband has no business, the jolt is an eye-opener. It gives her a subject of thought and worry that had never occurred to her before.
 No matter how little rich girl may know concerning affairs, she presumes that every man should be engaged in business of some kind. When bills come in and he makes no move to pay them, but losses them over to her un- lconcernedIy, or ignores them alto gether, her respect for him begins to Lfwane. She knows that he is healthy, happy, and hearty Whenever it dawns upon a woman that man has married her for support, then the trouble be- gins to brew He may not ask her for money for a new overcoat, but when he begins to look shabby, and she sees that her friends are noticing it. she buys him one. But that's more un- fortunate for him than lucky, for he's sure never to hear the last Of it. If he feels like taking a spin in the park in the automobile, he is brought to a sud- Idep realization of how matters stand Eby her remark: stIt's my car. and not yours; you haven't my permission to take it out! You may dislike the Browns, but that doesn't matter a par ticIe to me. They are my company! i please here. As for their dining
 with me it is who pay the bills for 4 the table, not you! shall get what
 please. He4who does not pay the bills I has no voice in the matter
 This cutting speech is dfhned eter- nally in. his ears. He has to be at he1
 beck and call, fawning at her feet like
 a slave. Her butler gets good pay TOT
 waiting on her. The man who weds ton than hes> without the independent
 privilege of earning a cent. Not only 4does the rich wife make his life mis- lerable in betty ways, such as doIine Ehim out five cents for car fare, or two fcents for the exening paper but hel relatives are not disposed to treat him more civilly. He never knows what ii is to have a dollar in his pocket !. Most men bend under the heavy yoke z There are others who plunge into business to forget their woes
 They realize that this is the only way to gain q wife's respect, and deserved Happiness.

CORN FIR FOR COOKS
EscalIoped Oysters.

Escal1oped oysters may be baked in individual dishes or in large dishes or in large casserole, or baking pan Butter the dish, put in thin layer of cracker or stale bread crumbs, then a layer of oysters, sea soning with salt and pepper, dotting with bits of butter and adding, if you like, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice or a suspicion of mace. Most persons do not care for these higher seasonings, but that is a matter of in dividua1 preference.
 Follow with another layer of cr1mbs dotted with butter, then more oysters and seasoning, with a thick layer of buttered crumbs on top. Have ready a small quantity of the oyster broth heated, with an equal quantity of milk or cream, and pour over the oysters. Bake in a hot oven for about 20 minutes until the crumbs are brown.

Owen Johnson Found Paris

 On his, recent visit to Paris the American novelist found the whi1om City of Light transformed into a study. in black and gray. The new color scheme of the French capital is not symbolic of despair, however, but of grim determination. which has made France a nation of warriors fighting as one. While in France MT. John- son had interviews with President Poincare.s Premier Viviani, General Joffre, General GalIieni, Foreign Min ister Delcasse, former Premier Briand, Paul DeschaneI and other French leaders, and he also visited the trenches, the factories and the hos pitals.
 ""The unaninity of the French is amazing,' he declared. They are fighting and working as one with the determination to end the possibility Of the recurrence of another such war. From the President down to the factory workers they have but one thought, and, variously expressed, it is this: We realize that it will take a long, hard struggle to vanquish the Germans, but we shall mot stop until we have attained the certainty that the following generations will not have to go through this sort of thing.''
 While at the front MT. Johnson wit messed the German bombardment of the cathedrals of Rheims and Arras for which, he asserted, there was ab- solutely no excuse. Every time the French won a success anywhere, he was told, the Germans evened mat ters by bombarding the cathedrals the novelist was himself under fire on several occasions.

AsoUrrH.s OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

The first English prime minister in the full sense and modern mean ing of the word, was Sir Robert Wal pole who was born. in Houghton 2S9 years ago today. and first became prime minister just two centuries ago, in 1715.s Earlier in his career Wal pole+who was afterward created Earl of Oxford-was expelled from the House of Commons on a charge of nafsappropriaing public money. and was comqnitted to the Tower. but was returned to his seat the following year His first service as premier occupied only two years, but in 1721 he was refuEned to the post and, held power ,ss1 years. Wa1poIe was one of the Sablest of the predecessors of MT As d1fth. It was largely due to his pru- Sence and political sagacity that the 1fanoverian dynasty was firmly es- tabMshed in Great Britain. His son Horace, Earl of Orford, attained wide fame as an author. and his Memoirs are held tess be unsurpassed in the English tongue.
