ROMANCE In RUSKIN'S LIFE
Divergent Religious Views for Long
Time Separated Him From the
Woman He Loved.

In 1865 Ruskin declared his love for
Rosie La TOuche and told her parents
of his hope TO make her his wife. says
J. Howard Whitehouse in Seribner's-
There was a great difference OF years
between them Ruskin was forty-sev-
en-; Rosie was in her eighteenth year
There wac come natural hesitation on
the part Of the parents, and it was ar
ranged that the matter should.be post
poned for three years.
But when the period OF probation
was ended new difficulties arose
There was hesitation not only on the
part Of the parents, but also BY Rosie.
Miss La Tozche was OF q deeply re-
Hgious nature. but her views were Or
thodor and she did not share the wider
views on spiritual questions in which
Ruskin increasingly believed
Her love for him had never wav-
cred since the days OF her childhood;
but she doubted II. holding the views
she did. she could marry him Both
she and Ruskfn suffered the deepest
distress.
For a little time there was eS-
arrangement, and there is g moving en-
try in Ruskin's diary in the year $50:
last Friday about twelve o'clock at
noon my mistress passed ne and
would not speak" In the following
year there was reconciliation.
The end OF Ruskin's dream came in
1873. Miss La Touches health never

May OF that year.

ENGLAND WARNS
THE FOOD HOARDER
Prosecutes 1851 Cases
of Hogs in Eight
Months of 1918
PROMINENT PEOPLE
AMONG THOSE WHO PAY

(By Newspaper Enterprise Association
LONDON, Sept. i7.-From January 4
to August II, this year, the British
Food Ministry prosecuted 27.657 cases
Of boarding, profteering and other
violations Of the food regulations.
OF these prosecutions, 25,657, or 9i4
per cent. were successful
And the prosecutions were not con-
fined to little fellows" Captain C. E.
Penney. head OF the Enforcement De-
partment. says that without exception
In every case where a violation Of the
food law Is found. a prosecution fol-
lows. And he cites these cases. from
his records TO show the enforcement
branch means what II says:
Among persons and institutions who
have paid fines are:
wv. J. NJ. MCaw, a member OF par
Lament; William Allen. printer and
publisher: Marie COrelli. authOress;
LiptOns, Home and Colonial Stores,
Eastmsns (butchers), Sainsburys.
Lyons; big restaurants such as sipp-
sons. Princes. the Ritz. the CarNon,
big clubs. wholesalers such as Burton,
Son & Sanders, Hooberman & Co., and
many others.
This Is by no means a complete list.
Nor does II necessarily represent worst
offenders. In some Of these cases IL Is
possible that hired help committed the
violations and that they were not in
tended by the chiefs OF the concerns.
But | merely pick out a few OF the
biggest concerns at random to show
that our PROSECUTIONS are by no means
confined 10 the little fellows"
When vigorous prosecution OF all
offenders began, there was great anx-
iety among persons who had boarded
and who we're ashamed to declare
what they had.
Lest they destroy food products, an
amnesty week was announced during
which all surpluses were TO be given
up. This produced an enormous guam
tity Of food which was then circulated
under proper regulations.
still ashamed" said Captain Penney,
many people ran up TO hospitals late
at night in taXis and left bundles OF
food on the steps.
But the vast majority Of The Brit
ish people are obeying the law--an
idea OF how small our totals are is TO
be obtained by comparing them with
the most recent figures from Germany.
in one year 1928 sentences Of i'm
prisonment were passed in Germany,
and in six months from January 4. this
year, only 26 persons were imprisoned
in Great Britain.
The last figures OF total prosecu-
tions we have from Germany Is Ooto-
Der, 1916. 70 November, 1877. The total
is 4S7, ,726"
The stan under Captain Penney
spreads out into every food district,
much like the draft board organization
in America. Both. men and women in
spectors constantly are hunting for
food violations, and the whole police
force cO-operates.
