pesERTloN NO REMEDY.
Seattle P.-I.)

Whatever claim for sympathy that had has been judicially removed by nigh court of New Jersey. In re- cent case in which an alleged hen pecked" husband deserted his family. he was arrested and brought into court tt the behest of his wife. Here he re- lated a sad tale of domestic unhappi- ness, in which his wife. his mother-in- law and his sister in Jaw were stated ,o have combined to make life a bur den to him. His defense for desertion was the insupportable treatment ex- tended to him by his immediate rela- lives.
 The court held that man is the due and lawful head of the household and that he should not permit any inva- sion of his domestic rights. It was he courts view that the lord and master of the home should not allow his authority to be set aside, and that in abandoning his home he had applied tue wrong remedy and made himself arnenable to punishment under the law.
 The New Jersey case should go far toward stiffening the backbone of the hen -pecked" husband but 1t will prob ably result in no stronger exercise of his authority than nature has given him strength to enforce. The law may definitely fix the relations of husband and wife so far as theory may permit but the practical, everyday relation of the couple will continue to be ad- justed by themselves. Fortunately for general domestic peace. instances like the New Jersey case are not common.

.ENEMY" AS AN ADJECTIVE.
(kansas City Star.)


 A new English usage which the war has brought about is the employment t1. "eueiuy" as an adjective. Dlspatch- .s used to refer to hostile ships or the .enemy's' forces. Now they speak of enemy" ships and enemy" armies
 Perhaps the word was used original ly to convey a shade of meaning olnef- ent from hostile" Such shades oi meaning are embodied in the vocabu- lary of diplomacy. For Instance. when inc American battleship's launch was llreu on by Il smyrna battery. the com lnander reported that it was "an ah- .iendly but not a hostile act This was not a contradiction. hostile act Ia one calculated to avoke mediate hostillties If the battery had fired on the battleship, the battleship would have replied. and the firing would have been hostile" act. But as the launch could not reply, the firing was merely 'unfrlendly."
 However, if any such particular shade of meaning attached to enemy

THE NATURAL LINK.
(Boston Record.)

tBoSton kecOrd)
 The natural link between women and the home is based on something that is everlasting. No amount of "femin- ism" and "advance" will eliminate that, nor Is it desired by the thoughtful But development equality. justice and rec ognition of comradeship and mutual responsibility in a democracy, do not spell a lessening of the influence of women on the home and of the home on woman. On the contrary. increas- ton. and political equality will make the home a cleaner and better place in which to bring up children and focus human establishment.
 Miss Alice Henry. an eminent woman who speaks with authority, made this significant and comprehensive obser- vation in her talk last night:
 Today men realize that women are definitely out of tho home; but they seem to think, When we get things strengthened out again. the women will go back into the home."

IN WAR ACTS
As There Has Been But One
Case of Attempt by vio-
Ience to Interfere.

PARIS, Dec. 16.-In the sixteen
months since France went to war
IT is declared that there has been
only one case of an attempt made
by violence to interfere with the
concentration Of the army and the
prosecution of the war. This fact Is
being pointed out in Justification Of
the action which Minister of the In
terror Malvy took in resisting sugges-
lions that all revolutionary leaders,
anarchists and persons suspected OF
disloyalty to the republic be arrested
on the eve Of the Issuing Of the
general mobilization order.
The qanies Of hive thousand OF
these suspects were, previous to the
war, inscribed In what was known
as Notebook B." It had been

iiization was going on. but Minister
Malyy, on whom the responsibility
devolved, found himself between
two fires.. The socialist leaders i'm
plored him not to take action, de-
claring 1t would only inhame turbul-
emit elements. On the other hand,
the police, and cautious members Of
the cabinet endeavored to impress
upon him the gravity Of the
responsibility he would assume In
leaving at liberty. persons who had
boasted that in case Of war they
would prevent the mobilization OF the
army by violence.
Jean Jaures. the leader Of the So
cialist party. who was to fall under
an assassin's hand the very night
the. mobilization order was Issued,
land Gustav Herve, who had been
one Of the most violent anti-militant
leaders, assured NJ. Malvy that the
socialists and the members Of the
labor federation would show them
selves as loyal as any other cate

would be Q crime to issue orders, for

were inscribed in Notebook b..
Upon their advice Minister Malyy
decided to take the chances. and It
is now pointed out that the results
have been proof enough that fears
were groundless. In the one case

FINE IMPOSED
ON RED CROSS
D0CT0R. RYAN
In Budapest When a Shell Ex-
plodes in His Trunk and
Injuries Three Persons.

VIENNA, Dec. 16.-Dr. Edward
W. Ryan, chief of the American
Red Cross mission In Serbia, has arr
rived here from Belgrade, with five
physicians and eleven nurses who had
remained on duty until. with the TAX.
ing Of Belgrade by the Germans and
Austrians, the work OF the Americana
came to an end. There were still
some 200 patients in the hospital
when the mission was abandoned,
but DR.. Ryan did not care to remain
Under the altered conditions.
At the beginning of the lombard.
ment preceding the taking OF the
city. number of shells fell near the
hospital. DIR. Ryan Immediately sen,
strongly worded protest against
this. pointing out that the bul;uing
occupied by mis- mission occupied a
prominent location plainly visible
from the artillery positions. After
that no shells fell near enough to
be uncomfortable.
DR.. Ryan's most exciting exper-
fence came in Budapest, where he
stopped for a day on the way to
Vienna. He was dining in a hotel
when some Hungarian Official enter
ed the room, asked IL he was DR..

identity, informed him that he was
under arrest. He asked for explnaa-

The doctor went under escort to

when his trunk was unloaded from
the baggage-car and, dropped on the
platform, there, was q heavy explo-
sion which had injured three men,
one Of them having o leg SO badly
lacerated that he had to be removed
\ to hospital. The station was filled
at the time and a panic ensued, in
which several persons were thrown
down In the mad rush to get out OF
the building. Fragments Of the trunk
and its contents. were scattered all
about the platform and other pieces
OF baggage and truck had been
more or less damaged.
4 DR.. Ryan was informed that a
fine OF thirty thousand crowns had
been imposed on him, and that he

VLAD|VOSTOCK IS
ABSOLUTELY DRY
"Kvass," Old Temperance
Drink, Revived by Army
WOMEN ARE WORKING
Women of City Proving Themselves
Genuine Heroines-GermanC Civilians
Thought Deportation Order Would
Not Be Strictly Enforced

Vladivostock, July 25.-(Correspondence
of the Associated Press.)-with this city
hurdened with the business of war-it is a
great shipping center now of vast sup
plies for the Russian armies-with prac-
tically the whole population devoted to
it. not drop of intoxicating beverage
can be bought in Vladivostock. With speed
and efficiency a prime necessity in get
ting the supplies off to the front, alcohol
and the business of war would not mix
we'll here. Hence the law against the
sale of vodka. wines, whisky, and even
beer is strictly enforced.
But 1t is a wonderful thing how the
people have gone along without drinking.
They have demonstrated this and shown
that they can have a good time Just
the same. They still frequent the cafe
concerts" or find other amusements to
relieve the heavy burden of the day S
work. To be sure the concerts close at
one, instead of five in the morning, but
everybody wants to go to bed earlier now
and get up earlier. The feeling of the
people that they must drink something
besides water induced shrewd officers of
the army commissariat to revive Russian
temperance drink that really was dis
covered 1000 years ago, the old Russian
"kvass." 1t resembles American root beer
and 1t Is made of Russian black bread
and yeast. An alluring and deceptive
foam results from the fermentation of the
yeast. 1t is now drunk everywhere.
Women Work Well
The women conductors on the tramways
also give new note to the city At first
they were pleasantly leased and joked
about, but everybody is used to them
now and likes them as agreeable and cap
able. And in very general way the Rus
sian women in Vladivostock are proving
themselves genuine heroines. Almost all
have husbands, sons. brothers at the
front. They have taken up the work at
home stoically and optimistically. Out
back In the Siberian plains 1t is the same
The women have taken hold for the
fatherland.

from want families of Canadian men who
for any reason go into any of the allied
armies instead of into one of the Cana
clan contingents
There Is nothing intricate in the work
ing out of the plan. The central commit
tee is the custodian of all funds. Each
month the several local relief societies
send to the central committee an esti
mate OF money that will be needed to
meet the demands of that particular
branch for the ensuing 80 days. Upon
this requisition. the sum asked is paid
to the local treasurer through whom
the local relief committee works its dis
bursements This monthly estimate is
made up a standardized form, each item
of which is carefully scrutinzed by an
expert accountant under the direction
of the auditor general of Canada. Not
only are the different sums of money to
be paid carefully studied to see that the
local committees have been neither mig
gardly nor overgenerous, but the name
of each individual soldier is checked by
the fastest report of the department Of
militia to make sure that he is in active
service.
The Canadian government makes a
separate allowance effective from the
day of enlistment, for married men and
for unmarried men who have others de-
pendent upon them. This allowance va

is taken into consideration when deter
mining what supplemental amount shall
be drawn from the Patriotic fund.
Cost of Living Considered
The prevailing cost of living in the diff
ferent sections of the Dominion also en-
ters into the question as to the amount
that shall be appropriated from the gen.
eral fund of the society. FOR instance.
In this part of Canada (Ontario). 1t has
been found that for the average Cana
dian family-a woman and three children,
aged, respectively, IL, and years
s1.50 day, s45 month, is the minimum
requirement for anything like decency in
living. For sections to the norm ana in
the far west this would be inadequate
and larger grants are given to each fam

companied the remains. says that is not
true. He was stricken suddenly with

dose of morphine to alleviate the pain.
This was followed by caomels and the
patient died a natural death from indi-
gestion. The deceased was a member of
