Disseminated Wives.

The life OF the average husband and
father must be supreme monoto-
nous existence. But men seem to be
so made that they can do the same
things over and over again endlessly
without complaint. Perhaps 1t is
their nature. perhaps the result or
long generations OF patient bread
winning.
Women are different. ] suppose
most women would like everything in
their lives changed once a year. and
/ know some who would tear up all
roots oftener than that, Kathleen
Morris writes in the Pictorial Review.
One thing that holds us Sd tenderly
10 the children is that they change SO
constantly; last years camera pic
lures are not this years. and the
pictures OF few years ago already
give us little pang at the heart.
They were babies-they are boys and
girls-and so soon they will be men
and women, and bottles and cribs and
skates and schoolbooks gone forever.
So the children are safe In our
hearts, eand, for the houses well. We
move and shift and replace as much
as the family temper and income will
permit
But the man of the house comes In
under the general rule. Being a man.
he never changes, nor sees the need
for change. Being a woman. his wife
eyes him patiently. or morosely. or
Indignantly, as her nature DEGREES,
and looks forward with a sort of ter
ror to the long, unaltering years to
come. He has no further surprises
for her. and as the years go by. his
virtues are taken more and more for
granted. and his faults are more and
more evident. He IS good, OF course;
he is kind and true, but he tells jokes
she has heard twenty times, he never
touches fish, and he Is fussy when
his feet get wet! She feels that she
could endure violence and neglect for
a while, anything for a change!
This would be funny il 1t were not
so tragic. The tragedy comes In be-
cause, at the last census, one couple
out of every twelve were divorced,
and statistics already indicate that at
the next census the proportion will
be even more serious. So that We
know that hundreds OF thousands of
men and women who loved each
other once have come to GOODNESS and
bitterness, and the end.

only set upon their feet again and in
position to continue to help them
selves, but she had given them such
taste of the real Joy for practical
and generous sympathy that their
simple life was forever frightened
by the touch.
Life is full Of golden opportunities
for the development OF this spirit,
and hundreds are awaiting themselves
of them every day; but the army is
not large enough yet to win, and the
call is out steadily for recruiting
forces? The real rainbow of optimism
spans humanity's horizon, spreading
the glowing colors of love and har-
mony over the drab everyday exist

Is different and life seems worth

could meet on the common ground of free love and exchange sympathetic views.
 From time to time the dispatches have referred to the naturalization of women" in the districts of Russia dominated by the Bolsheviki. Occa- sionally the newspapers have gone in- to details. In some provinces of Rus sia all women between the ages of Is and 35 have been made wards of the state. They must marry when and how the state directs and the direc- tions follow the basest tenets of free love cults. It will suffice, perhaps, to say that some of these Bolshevik1 edicts would have stirred at least q sentiment of horror in the souls of the sensualists of Antioch and Babylon.

LIKE TARTAN OF THE APES," HE DRESSES
 ONLY IN HIS FURS

CLEVELAND, O., April 11.-Willie O'Brien, 16. always had longed for ad venture but found it far out of his reach. On his salary he couldn't save enough money to pay railroad fare to the rolling plains of the West. Besides they wouldn't sell him revolver, and he didn't know where to get cowboy hat. He worked in hat store once but though there were soft hats pinned up in front, inch-brimmed dice box derbies and trick hats that folded when you touched them, among the old stock there wasn't snake-skin-band ed sombrero to be had.
 But when Willie saw "Tarzan of the Apes" in the movies he>knew his op portunity had come to him. He could find adventure at home. He would emulate Tarzan and become a wild man. There were woods at the end oi Euclid avenue And he worked, now in fur store.
 Yes, the police brought him in with a $15O fur coat and numerous un finished skins with which his "den' was to have been draped.

If there is any plan whereby Alaska can secure adequate and reasonable freight and passenger service, let's have it. Governor Riggs may have hit on the solution to the matter in his message to the legislature. In re gards to transportation service the territory is going backwards instead of forward, and as a measure of pro lection to the territory, everyone will concede that something must be done Where rates everywhere else in the world dropped at the cessation of hos tilities, those in Alaska went up. That is the whole story in nutshell and the straw that broke the camels back Better to risk all that we have in the territory than to be slowly and syste matically starved to death. Let's have the steamers.-Douglas News.
