1t is extremely unpleasant for
sensitive woman who, before
marriage, had been accustomed to
spending her income as she pleased
to ask man for money to buy
everything she needs, such as cot
ton, needles, pins eic., etc. 1t
seems to us no more than right
that man should give his wife, for
her own necessities, at least half as
much money as he would a servant.
She keeps his house, provides for
the comfort of himself and child
rem. not for hire, but because she
loves them, and she cares for hus-
band S interest as no hired house
keeper would, and is she not en-
titled to pay for her services
Yet some men would think it hard
ship to pay wife the amount he
would be obliged to pay servant
girl. There is many a woman a
mong the working classes who
would think herself highly favor
ed if she were sure of fifty cents
per week Of her husband s wages
to spend as she pleased. The a

The drive is On in Lafayette to
help save, the starving in the near
East, in Armenia and Syria.
100000 orphan children dying
Of cold and hunger, no protection
from the hard cold winter, no food
to sustain life.
Their pitiful cry for help rings
out throughout the world.
Let us help them. Let us try
to clothe and feed the starving
children and women at least
throughout the cold winter.
There is only one possible
source of help-and that is Amer
lea.
A big dance will be given at the
Ben Hur Home in Lafayette on
Friday. February It'll for the ben
eft of these poor unfortunateS.
Everybody come and help a good
cause.
We guarantee a grand time to
all.

BONDS FOR RECONSTRUCT
TON.

Through the four issues of wa
bonds hoated since May. 1917. th'
Government raised nearly Seven
teen Billion Dollars.
This vast sum, invested largel,
! in implements Of destruction
brought the autocratic Hun t.
terms twelve months earlier thar
expected. Had the war dragge,
on for another year thousands o.
American lives would have beer
sacrificed and our war debt III
creased many Billions.
Another great bond issue-tht
Victory Liberty Loan-will be
hoated next April. Treasury off
cials have announced that it viii
be for not less than Five Billion
Dollars. With this issue, Liberty
Loans will pass into history; the
job will be finished.
Heretofore the Billions have
been used for destructive pur-
poses. This time the bulk Of the
money derived from the sale of
these securities will be spent in
constructive work.
1t will 60 towards maintaining
our army of more than a million
men enforcing the armistice terms
upon Germany. This army must
remain in Europe until permanent
peace is established. The sick and
wounded soldiers overseas and at
home must be cared for and event
ually the rest Of our army brought
back. But the work this money
will do must not end here. The
men who have been disa bled; who
sacrificed eyes. arms or legs, must
be taught self-supporting trades.
For what nobler purpose could it
be used than in protecting these
heroes from future poverty and
distress?
Our soldiers did not relax when
the Hun retreated. They kept on
fighting until the very minute the
armistice became effective. We
at home should follow their ex-
ample. We should put out full
force behind this Victory Loan
and provide the Government with
the means for carrying through
the work forced upon it by war.

A MONKEY TRICK THAT
FAILED,
A Plagiarism.


AN ancient Ape, once on a time
disliked exceedingly to climb,
And so he picked him out tree.
and said, "Now this belongs to
me-"
| have a bunch that Monks are
Nuts, and | can make them
gather nuts
And bring the bulk Of them to me
by claiming title to this tree
He took a green leaf and a reed,
and wrote himself title-deed
Proclaiming pompuously and slow
"All monkeys by these presence
know
Next morning, when the monkeys
came. to gather nuts, he made
his claim
All monkeys climbing on this tree,
must bring their gathered nuts
to me.
Cracking the same on equal shares,
the meats are mine, the shells
are theirs"
But, by what righte" they cried
amazed, thinking the ape was
surely crazed.
By this" he answered. If you'll
read, you'll find it is a title
deed,
Made in precise and formal shape,
and sworn before a fellow Ape,
Exactly on the legal plan. used by
that woIdrous creature man.
But, said one monkey, you'll agree,
it was not you who made the
tree.
Nor, said the ope, serene and
bland, does any owner make his
land,
Yet all of its hereditaments, are
his, and figure in his rents
The puzzled monkeys sat about;
they could not make the ques.
ton out.
Plainly by precedent and law. the
apes procedure showed no flaw;
And yet no matter what he said,
the stomach still begged for its
bread.
Up spoke one sprightly monkey,
then: Monkeys are monkeys;
men are men,
This ape should try his legal cap
ers, on men who may respect
his papers.
We don't know deeds, We do
know nuts, and spite of "ifs"
and lands and "buts,
We know who gathers and un-
meats 'em, by monkey practice
also eats 'em.
