It's All Wrong, Woman Writer
Declares, to Think That
There Can Be No True Love
Without JeaIousyi.' Reverse
Is True,
By DOROTHY DIX,
The Worlds Highest Paid Woman

IN recent sensational divorce case
in which a man was seeking TO have
the matrimonial fetteres which bound
him to his wife severed, part Of the tes-
timony introduced consisted OF some
exceedingly affectionate letters which
the woman had written to another man.
The wife admitted the authorship Of
the billets- -doux, but claimed ,ha, she
was not in love with the man, bat had
simply written these letters with the
sole purpose Of awakening her hus-
bands love by making him Jealous,
Other Women Do the Same.
The woman's attitude was interesting
because so many other women hold to
the same lallacy. that jealousy is the
hand maiden OF love, instead of being
its assassin, This leads them into COM
mtting innumerable follies. and while
one can hardly credit the idiocy Of a
wife who would put such a weapon as
BUNCH OF incriminating letters into
the hands OF husband whom she Sus-
pected OF being tired OF her 1t is never
theless true that many women are silly
enough to engage in flirta,ions just TO
make their husbands Jealous.
They have an idea that by torment.
ing man they can keep the fires OF al
feotion slight in his breast and at any
rate, tis sop to their vanity TO see
that they still have the power to make
their husbands register fiery passion,
as our moving picture friends say.
Not Proof Of Love.
Such women believe that jealousy OF
woman Is proof OF a mans love for
her, and that as long as he cares for
her he does the Othello act. They are
on a par with the drunken lsborer's
wife who wept that her husband no
longer took enough interest In her to
beat her,

MESSENGER Wears Tile,

War times and the unprecedented de-
mand for aids for Uncle Sam have
brought many quaint characters to
Washington, notes a capital CORE
spondent.
One Of the quaintest guards is seen
daily at the main door of the old Land
Office building, now occupied by Pro-
vost Marshal General Crowder and his
staff. He is a gentleman Of the old
Southern school and while on duty
wears shining black silk hat Of an
cient vintage. On the left lapel Of his
frock coat is little silver badge Of
authority and his courtly manner as
he bids one enter the portals Of the
building always brings a smile. On
the pay roll he is listed as "messen-
ger" and he is the only messenger in
Washington who wears a silk hat.

CRIMINALS FOND OF POETRY
Fact Often Noticed Has Been Ex-
planned by Great French Lawyer
as Form of Egotism.

Criminals are VIGOROUSLY fond of
poetry. That is what they read by
preference when serving time. And
they are fond of writing verses, gener-
ally Of a sentimental kind, often full
Of self-pitying pathOs, for real GRIM
inals nearly always look upon their
deeds as the result of the force Of cir
cumstances. SOleilland, the murderer,
called his crimes a misfortune An
astay wrote: "You understand that I
have been the plaything of circum-
stances" Vidal, the slayer Of peasant
women, wrote that he was "funda-
mentally good and incapable of hurt
ing a fly"
Eugene Nolent, commenting on a re-
cent book by Raymond Hesse, the
French criminal lawyer, on the ntera-
ture Of criminals, says: ''This fond
ness of criminals for poetry may per-
haps be explained by the fact that
poetry enables one better than prose
to express the ardor of his passions.
For that reason these works always
bear the imprint of the me- and follow
the authors sentiments with most ro-
mantle grandilOquence."

U-Boats Have Murdered Thousands

There is a danger lest familiarity,
even with such a monstrous crime as
unrestricted U-boat warfare, should
breed Indifference to it's enormity,
says an exchange. Therefore, it is
well to bear in mind that, except when
the attack is made on fighting ships or
transports carrying fighting men, the
torpedoing of ships and sending men
to their death far out at sea, is simply
murder. unredeemed by any extenuat-
ing circumstances whatsoever. Just
how great bill of indictment is be-
ing drawn up by the German admiralty
against itself is seen in the statement
given by the government leader in
the house of commons, that up to Feb
ruary, 1918, the German U-boats had
killed 14,12O noncombatant British
men, women and children. This, be it
noted, is exclusive Of the murders done
upon peoples Of other nationalities.

WHEN LITTLE ONE SINGS

When evening comes over the gray shad-
ows fall,
Softly my Little One sings;
Cuddles and COOS to a little rag doll,
And babbles of wonderful things.
Voice like linnet, and eyes like dove,
Little One rocks in her chair,
And tenderly sings, while her motherly
Warns to her little one there.
want to get down by the side of her,
too,
And rock-a-by back through the years,
Voyaging the Sunderland River of blue,
Untroubled by doubtings or fears.
To drift to a nest in the crook of an arm,
And lie in cuddle of dreams;
All, Little One, sing me the wonderful
charms
Up, up from the Lullaby streams.
And sing while the heart Of you bursts
in song.
Cuddle your little one so,
For yours is a feeting time, age is so
long,
And you, little singer, will grow.
Age will lay hand on your curly, brown
hair,
Make you grown-up too soon;
Hustle you out of your little red chair
Sing, sing, while your heart is in tune!
Softly gray shadows come deeping down.
Little One journey away
Mother and Dolly to Sunderland Town.
Drowsy-eyed dreamers astray,
Leaving me here where mist Of her
Falls on my heart like a dew,
And heaven. 1 thank you, through age Is
so long,
Many the dreams that come true

MARINE CORPS NEW INSIGNIA
Green Instead Of Blue Uniform Is Not
Recognized by Those Who Are
Not Up to Minute.

Surprisingly few civilians even after
their country has been in the world
war for nearly year can readily
identify the various uniforms Of the
United States service. Especially is
this true in regard to the United States
marine corps. The change of the ma
rine corps uniforms from blue to for
est green has added greatly to the be-
wilderment of the layman who likes to
recognize a military man by his uni
form or insignia.
The small boy, however, is not so
easily fooled; as is shown by an Incl
dent which occurred a few days ago.
One Of the sergeants from q marine
recruiting station was walking along
the street when he came on a group Of
small boys and girls playing on the
sidewalk. AS he approached them one
little girl asked:
"What is that man in un1form?'
II guess he's a French officer" said
another girl.
One of the boys eyed him closely for
moment, and then planted himself
squarely in front Of the sergeant, and
holding him by the coat with two
chubby little hands. said: II wanna see
watcha got on yer cap"
The lad knew that the device en-
bracing the globe. eagle and anchor
means marine" whether the wearer
be clothed in blue. forestry green or
khaki. ooh, you're marine, aintcha,"
he exclaimed jubilantly. "An' he's a
sergeant and a sharpshooter, too" he
told his playmates, with knowing lit
tie nod.

HER PRAYER WAS. ANSWERED
Ride Proved That Her Argument
Was a Good One.

The six-year-old daughter Of an at
| torney has been taught from infancy
to have implicit faith in prayer. SO
strongly has this been impressed on
her mind that practically all Of her de-
sires and childish wishes sooner or
later find expression in prayerful ap-
peal.
The child is motor enthusiast. and
on the first warm day after the severe
winter weather she asked her father
to take her out for ride. He ex-
planned that their machine was put
away for the winter, and that it could
not be used at that time. The child
then sought her mother and asked her
to pray for somebody to come around
and take them out for a ride. The
mother tried to explain that such
prayer would be unavailing but. I'M
daunted in her firm belief, the child
went to her room and prayed that she
might have an auto ride. An hour or
so passed. and the little girl waited
expectantly and anxiOusly for the au-
tomObile TO arrive.
Seeking to allay the child's disap-
pointment the mother started to ex-
plain more fully, when the shrek of
an automobile horn was heard outside.
The child rushed to the door, and to
the amazement of the mother, neigh
Dor asked the girl whether she desired
to take a ride.
"Will you have room for mother.
too" the girl asked.
mo, we just have room for one lit
tie girl" replied the man at the wheel.
The child hurriedly put on her coat
and cap, and as she left the doorway
she turned to her mother and said:
"See, mother, if you had prayed with
me you could have gone, too"
The mother is still wondering.
