Wages Earned by Girls
Are Often Considered Legitimate
Property Of Household.

Why arc the wages of girl liv-
Ing at home often considered to bo
entirely tho legitimate property OF the
household in general?
A boy turns in n fair amount as
recompense for his board and lodgings,
but. no matter how poor the house
hold, he keeps something for himself.
With this he does absolutely as he
pleases. He may indulge any little
foolishncss, and so gain valuable les
sons; he may be producent and make

Useful
Hints
The Wife's Relatives
Why it Pays to Keep Them Awoy
From Husband.
tBy Adm Patterson.)

A famous pianist vanished from his
homo in n New Jersey suburb. His
disappearance caused tremendous hue
and cry. The newspapers constituted
themselves bloodhounds, determined TO
hunt down the domestic dcserter or
murderer. Then came an anti climax
to the pretending tragedy.
The vanishing husband sent this let
ter 10 his wife:
"Dearest.--I have just read III n
newspaper about my disappearance. 1
am concerned more than can express
that should have given you. the chill
dron and our friends so much trouble
and understandable worry. l cannot

Too Many Relatives.

ate OF the exiled musician stated the
facts a he knew them. He often COM
.plained 10 me that he could not work
around his home because so many peo-
pie came in. He had no relatives of
his own in this country. but his wife
had a regiment of thcm. They visited
and visited and visited. I used to call
AT the house to talk business details

And so are YOU and ! and everyone

the matter with the wife? What ails
her brain? Wives common with others

THE REPLY TO AUSTRIA

Secretary Lansing's answer to the Aus
trian protest against the sale Of munition
Of war by American manufacturers to be
approximations seems to owe the groun'
SO thoroughly that, as the secretary init
mates in his reply, there is nc reason TO
pursuing the argument further. The fac
that Germany itself has been a large der
Ter in munitions for the past century, am
that there hasn't been a single var durinI
that time which has not added enormous
ly to the profits of the Krupps, and tina
even in the war in South Africa the Ger
mans thrifty sold munitions to the Eng
lish to be used against the Germans owl
~kinsAnen, the Beers, effectively dispose
of the complaint of the Teutonic allie'
that American manufacturers are acting
wrongfully in selling munitions to abe al
lies in the present a The reply o
Secretary Lansing has been summarized
as follows:
l. That the United States will no
change or modify the rules of internationa
usage because Germany and Austria are
unable to compete in American markets
for American ammunition.
2. That to do so would be a gross vic.
lation of neutrality on the part of this
country.
8. That the position of both Germany
and Austria is inconsistent in that they
particularly Germany have been the
largest dealers in war supplies during
wars in the last century.
4. That to yield to the Teuton conten-
ton now would revoke the established
policy of the United States to insist upon
the free dealing by all nations in military
supplies in war time.
S. That the reitteration of this policy
would force all countries of the world to
turn their lands into armed camps in order
to be prepared to resist invasion for con-
quest.
8. That such q course would do more
increase militarism in the world and to
prevent the maintenance of peace by
peaceful means than anything suggested.
Z. That Austria's contention with re-
spect to the violation of Hague treaties by
the United States in permitting arms ex-
portations are not sustained.
8. That the position of this country
has been made sufficiently plain to war
rant the ending of the discussion.
It seems the reply as summarized in
the above, covers the ground, from the
American point of view, pretty fairly.
