Edith reasoned, anyway. Tom had
been the neglectful husband, almost

Well. It was almost more than she
could stand. Everything she said he

not tkink of that part Of It. She did
not Ike his relatives, and he hated
hers. His sister Argentine had made
the second summer Of their marriage
miserable for Edith, and now Tom had
Il perfect right to put up with her
brother Gerald. Gerald was a good
sort. and was a much better brother
then Tom was a husband.
The last straw came when Tom had
refused utterly to publish one of Ger.
aids stories. Tom was head Of a pub
1ishing house and could have easily
marketed one Of Gerald's many liter

sure he would have done so had Ger.
aid been any one save her brother,
Their quarrel had been a long and
heated one and that night Edith had
cried herself to sleep. In the morning
she came down almost ready to for

her caused all the resentment to come
back into her soul. Tom was lectur-

At this point Edith clustered in.
Few women are beautiful when angry

DEMOCRATIC SPEAKERS
 HANDICAPPED BY FACTS

It is curious coincidence that al- most at the moment the missioners of distracted democracy were telling the women of Omaha how much that party has done for them, the legisla- ture of Georgia was refusing by an overwhelming vote to ratify the suf- frage amendment.
 Mrs. Antoinette Funk, able attor- ney, spent considerable part of her time eulogizing Senator Gilbert M. Hitchcock, evidently in ignorance of the fact that the women of Nebraska knew that on three occasions his vote alone defeated the Susan B. Anthony amendment. This in spite of the fact that President Wilson had made a personal appeal to the Democratic senators to support the measure.
 Mrs, Bass praised the president for the child-labor law, but did not make it plain that that measure was passed by Republican votes over Democratic opposition. Nor did she allude to the more significant fact that it was killed in one of the strongholds of the party, where it turns for it's support, and from whence it derives it's votes in Congress.
 These champions of a failing cause must hold the intelligence of the women rather cheap, if they think they are to be deceived by such bum combe.

SOUTHERN RANCHERS
 VISITING IN THE NORTH

W.fJ. Osborn, J. w. Etter and Jeff Kleck, all prominent ranchers of the Salt River Valley, were in Flagstaff Tuesday. They have been making a short tour of the north by auto look ing over the country to see what ranchers have been doing up north. They had just returned from a trip around north of the mountain, inspect ing crops, and in speaking of their trip MT. Osborn said:
 Tt is really wonderful the success these dry ranchers have made of the new country, and I had no idea that it could be done. Out at Dead Man Flat they are raising fine corn and one rancher told me that he had sold over $100 worth of roasting ears from one acre of ground; I was told that they could raise good watermelons there, too"
 The party left Wednesday for the south over the Oak Creek route on their way home.

DON'T WANT
 THE UNIFORM ABUSED

As the good men and true doff their soldier uniforms and don their "cits," the bad men and false steal or buy the uniforms and use them as camou- flage for beggary and fakes of all kinds.
 There have been many warnings to the public not to encourage men in uniform who try to sell or beg at the door, There is provision in almost every community for needy soldiers, and no soldier who wants a job need go long without one. In spite of the publicity given to these facts, so prev alent has the abuse of the uniform become that Secretary Baker is advis- ing with government officials as to more drastic methods of prevention.
 The public, as it appreciates what it's honest soldiers have done, should give every aid in stamping out this dishonest traffic. No purchase should be made of any man in uniform, or any money given to him, if he can not present clean bill of explanation as to how and why he comes to be appealing at private doors in the uni form of his country.-Review.

standing army of more than half million men although it also contem- plates universal training.
 General March indicated that mili- tary authorities believed that the large army program was necessary because of the unsettled conditions throughout the world" He said noth- ing about never sending the boys in khaki overseas. It is cause for won derment in Congress what the admin istration proposes to do with the half million standing army which it now wants to raise in this countryy
 "With the prevailing spirit of un- rest throughout the world all nations must be on the alert" said General March. Winston Churchill has pro- posed an army for Great Britain of 100000 men. France has the con scription system and can raise an army at once of any size. We sug- gest an army of 509,000 men with universal military training"
 He said that the yearly expenditure would not exceed $900,000, ,000.
 Secretary of War Baker in recent speech at Philadelphia urged Ameri- ca's preparedness for the next war.

OFFICIALS CONFER
 HERE ON H. (. OF |.

The high cost of living conference held here on Saturday was adjourned to some day the latter part of this week, as United States Attorney T. A Flynn was called away on other busi- ness. He believed when he left that he would be able to get back here Thursday.
 The conference was held before T. A. Riordan, of this city, federal food administrator for this state. Besides Mir. Riordan and Mir. Flynn, those at. tending were the latter's secretary Ralph Bois, of Phoenix, and Attorney General Wiley E. Jones.
 MT. Riordan said on Sunday that the purpose of the conference was to go over the situation in general way, formulating plans and policies and perfecting the organization, getting ready to appoint fair-price committees and to proceed with a general investi- gation into the matter of prices.
 "We are getting things into shape to push matters more rapidly than we have been doing," he said.
 While here, Sunday morning, MT. Jones received a telegram from his assistant at the state capitol advising him that during a four-hour discus sion at Phoenix on Saturday, "the state wholesalers and retailers plead not guilty of profiteering," adding that they court investigation and promise to cooperate.
 "Of course, we didn't expect them to come and plead guilty" sMr. Jones said, after reading the message. He said that the landlords of Phoenix certainly are profteering, many of them having increased their rents as high as 50 per cent.
