There they dance and sing until the
wee sma' hours Of the morning.
There never was a greater libel or
one more calculated to damage limo
cent regulations. AS matter OF fact
all who work hard during the day
should have something pleasant to
look forward to to beguile their eve
ming hours. Give them happiness and
drive away dull care. The young girl
in her teens may be enthusiastic over
the dance. Give her her fling, and In
two years or SO she has had enough OF
It. She has made the alarming discov-
ery that she cannot devote too many
hours to pleasure, especially after the
midnight bells have chimed, and be
fresh and eager for work the next day.
She falls all too soon into the habit OF
remaining home at night. The rou-
tine Of duty tells upon her, is heavy
drain upon her strength and enthu-
siasm. She, feels more like slipping
into an old wrapper and soft slippers
and sitting down to do needed repair
ing.
When she has reached this stage OF
the game she has lost the hope which
brightens the majority OF women's
lives-the hope of love, a husband and
home of their own. They settle down
to q life Of toll with no reward at the
end Of the day. Other women try theii
best to aid fate in lettering their con
ditions. They realize that after the
days hard work they are tired in head
| limb and heart. But they know thai
they will be still more tired ten years
later If they continue the same rou
tine. Thus they consider it duty tt
| themselves to add enjoyment to eacf
| twenty-four hours. Bravely they pu
| from them the realization that the!
are tired, go forth to see what happi
ness Is around them and incidentally t.
be seen.
| One evening girl of this type visit
a friend. Next evening she calls on
neighbor. She passes an evening a
a lecture or going to the movies. Sh'
sees lights, hears music and is brough
in contact with happy natures, making
new friends. It is sad enough for tn
housewife with q brood of little chill
dren not to be able to get out. Womel
VINO can, owe 1t to themselves to Civ
some OF their hours to pleasure an
recreation. AS

kitchen. where his wife kept her ac-
count books with the butcher and gro
Ger. Reckoning up and keeping tabs
on her exact expenditures. he discov-
cred that she was getting from him
couple of dollars week extra for the
upkeep of the table. Promptly he
brought her down to hardpan with her
expenditures. He exulted in the fact
that prying into household secrets
saved him at least eight dollars a
month. A fellow workman at the same
bench gave his wife the same amount
as did his friend at first. He asked
no question as to what disposition she
made of it. 1t happened both men
were thrown out of work at the self
same time. The man who had cut
down his wife'S pittance was dispos-
sessed. There was not one penny to
meet the emergency. The man VINO
had trusted his wife with the handling
of his wages, making no attempt to
pry into the family secret as to how
his money went, was amazed and over
loved to find that his frugal better
half had laid by a sufficient sum to tide
them over the two months he was
searching for work. Moral: A man
should not be stingy with prudent,
good wife.

Backalche

In spite of the best care one takes
of oneself, any part of the human machine
is liable to become out of order. The
most important organs are the stomach,
heart and kidneys.
The kidneys are the scavengers and they
work day and night in separating, the
poisons from the blood. Their signals of
distress are easily recognized and in
clude such symptoms as backache, de-
pressions, drowsiness, irritability, head
aches, dizziness, rheumatic twinges,
dropsy, govt.

kidneys to their normal state Of health, !"

LATch.KEY TEMPTATION.

Mother says her boy shouldn't want
a latch-key. Father says, "Stun ana

s"There's more than that to be consid-

who has latch-key is tempted to stay
out longer than he should. When he
knows the front door is securely lock-

must be in the house by that time.
"You don't seem to understand that

he's been out long enough. Shows are
not even over at that time. Young
men loiter on the street and talk, drop

their own time In getting home" re-
marked farther dryly. "Aha ! that's just
it. With a latch-key, he'd take his own
time about getting home. When he's

citizens, whether for peace or war, Is
to adhere to rigid standards of disci-

selves for the possible requirement OF
military service the better. Without
