Against Their, IS Opinion
Of Experts.

WashingtOu.-Fur American bat
tleshius Will be able to survive the cN-
plosiun of q single torpedo against
their hulls. regardless of whore they
are struck. in the opinion of navy "X-
pcrts. Experiments which have been
in progress for more than year have
demonstrated that two or more torre-
does must find their mark before these
shirs can be sent to the bottom.
The two supcrdreadnaughts and
two battle cruisers congress has been
asked To authorize this year will be
designed on this plan. Ba;tlcshipS /"
and # have added iDtcrior COnstruc-
ton resulting from the study made OF
the question of torpedo defense since
the outbreak of the European war,
but later ships will have even III
creased provisions in this regard.
The experiments are continuing and
officials expect further information on
the subject TO be developed. Details
of the work are regarded as c0nfden
| ,ial. but il IS known that some eX
pcrts are hopeful that a type OF con
struCtion will be evolved which vii
greatly reduce the effectiveness o
either mines or tOrpedOeS agalns

CHoULD the woman who is married

no many conflicting opinions on this sub.
ject. but It has always seemed to me
that the problem was one to be solved
individually. II a successful business
woman falls In love with man whose
income is moderate and hesitates about
marrying him because she knows that
her Ignorance OF household economies Is
very great. why should she not keep her
position and with the money so earned
employ an efficient cook7
Far better this than that she should
try TO change herself into household
drudge, for II she doesn't care for house.

that. or course, where there are chill.

married women. especially mothers OF

neglected and the woman exhausted for
the paltry sum OF 81 or So a week. when
the same amount could have been saved
out OF the regular income had II been
spent wisely. The children are. given
cold luncheon and sent back to school
with soiled hands and faces. I know Of
one mother who sat sewing at the ma
chine on some work from the factory; II
she worked every minute she could get In
the day and three hours after supper
was over, she could earn the munifcont
sum OF s4 week. As she worked, one
child pulled at her dress and cried for
penny; a penny was given TO him and the
baby. and they ran out without wraps
and bought an ice cream cone, then
started all over again for another penny;
again they were given a penny each. and
had another cone, until one child caught
a bad cold These neglected babies spent
almost as many pennies as the mother
earned Decidedly 1t does not pay, ex-
