THAT DANGEROUS LIE.

A lie is always the cause OF trouble
and oftimes brings about serious re-
suits. Misrepresentation on the part
of husband or wife will sooner or
later cause a breach in their domes-
tic relations. Many men, whose
fraternal emblems signify that they
are ION the square" and they will
defend the truth" will conspire to
pull crooked deal and protect a lie,
especially when a woman is the vic
tim. A woman should know some
thing about her husbands affairs, and
her motives cannot be considered en-
tirely selfish or mercenary. A court
of domestic relations is needed and
will probably be authorized at this
session of the legislature. A real
adjustment will do much to prevent
a family quarrel or murder.
Too often malicious remarks are
made about women, in particular, the
young women of our race. When
they are employed by men, white or
black, they are often accused of hav-
ing immoral relations with their en-
ployers. If they are unemployed,
the general remark is Somebody is
keeping her" The malicious liars are
the worst trouble makers. They Gust
heard so and so" and cannot name
their informer, because they are the
only authority for their own state
ments.
