Perpetual Honeymoons

A woman writer asks IL n perpetual
honeymoon can exist in this modern
day, and quotes In connection with the
question what another woman said. to-
wit: ANY woman who has lived with
man eleven years can find ground
for divorce" There Is much talk of
this kind and there are many divorces,
all of which are the product of mate
rialism, which doesn't see the differ
ence between pleasure and happiness.
That fact in its real working is behind
all divorces and married infelicities.
The fact is that pleasure Is material
and soon wears out; happiness is splr-
ituai and lasts forever. Every mar
rage must note these standpoints, for
they are swayed by one or the other.
mis- is the age of divorces, because
materialism fiourishes as never before.
1t makes the husband impatient and
the wife intolerant. When a couple
reaches that state they should sing
ole hymns together and 60 to prayer
meeting. Cigars and dry goods won't
save them.-Ohio State Journal.

sHOULD BE A REPUBLICAN.

Joe Davies, a big Democatic gun in
Wisconsin, because of his activity in
connection with the present federal
administration and his powers to in
tluence the handing out of political
plums, is a Democratic candidate for
United States Senator, as successor
to the late Senator Husting. The party
shout is, Look at his loyalty, his
patriotism p Considering the honors
heaped upon him by the administration,
he'd toe mighty poor partisan if he
weren't loyal and a mighty black
citizen if he weren't patriotic.
But the state being Republican, is
a splendid reason why she should be
represented by a Republican. Davies
loyalty and patriotism cannot dim the
lustro Of those traits possessed by
any one Of the Republican aspirants.
In particular, think of Congressman
Lenroot, whose loyalty and patriotism
shine conspicuously from a pedestal
not constructed of politics, but Of
craftsmanship.

THE PRICE OF SUBSTITUTES.
Mllwnnkee Free Press.

milwaukee free freSS,
The government has fixed the price
of wheat which is we'll
Bot how about the grains whose
-four is used as substitute for wheat
-four in bread?
The food administration has ordered
that whoever buys wheat -four must,
at the same time, buy pound for pound
of barley flour. corn flour or some other
substitute.
This is a practical conservation
measure, worthy of all praise, and
upon its face holds no infliction upon
the consumer The use of these wheat
substitutes in bread does not impair
the nutritive value of the loaf, even
tho it may not appeal as strongly to
the exquisite palate,
But how about the cost?
The increased use of barley and corn
llours compelled by the food admins
tration's order has already led to sharp
advances in the price of those commod-
tiles. and we may be sure that their
price, unless stabilized by the govern
ment, will continue to advance as the
enforced demand increases.
Since the government fixes the price
of wheat, and since the consuming
public is practically compelled to buy
wheat substitutes, should not the price
of the latter be equally controlled and
fixed at Washington that is, in fair
ness to the pocketbooks of the bread
eaters7
The question of price control, as the
president has indicated, is not alone
one of the cost Of bread. but one of
suppressing speculation. Yet neither
the one nor the other will be kept
down. if wheat substitutes are left
prey Of the market, while wheat itself
is regulated.
There is bug one solution of the stu
alton As long as the use Of wheat
substitutes is demanded. their price as
grain should be regulated the same ms
that of wheat.
II is the only consistent and equitable
way.

INCREASINGLY.

Political fate has been kind to Joe
Davies. He holds a whip hand Ger
the Democratic party in Wisconsin
and is well cared for at present by the
federal Democratic administration.
That is all right so far as partisanship
goes. bot Mr.. Davies unblushingly
steps forward and intimates that he is
the proper man TO send TO the United
States Senate as a successor to the
late Senator Husting, because of his
loyalty To and harmony with the Presi-
dent. Mighty strange if he were not.

CONSCRIPT WEALTH.
Rrndhend lndenendanf.

BrOdhead Independent.
One thing this war is going to do,
and that is to awaken the people of
America to the injustices of permitting
profiteering on the gigantic scale that
our big business interests have enjoyed
the past few years. If our homes are
to be conscripted of their most priceless
possessions it is but just that con-
scription of wealth should follow.
There are thousands of millionares
whose wealth ia increasing because of
the misery of the world at a rate that
staggers the comprehension They do
not stop at honest or fair practices,
asd revelations have come to light of
frauds against the government running
into millions of dollars. The price of
Democracy cannot be justly assessed
against the home and priceless hui
mainly, while few wax fat at the ex-
pense of further individual sacrifices.
The greed of wealth so hagrantly
practiced is awakening the people to a
demand for justice.

real patriotism demands that every
dollar, as well as every man, shall do
its duty in protecting this country;
and that every dollar raked in by
profitecriDg should be confiscated and
thrown in as an additional help.
