az DOROTHY DIX
Worlds Highest Paid womaA WFssag.

The Attraction OF Opposites.-1.
A young man writes to me that he
is engaged TO be married to a girl who
is his opposite in every respect.
He is very religious. She is very
worldly minded.
He is thrifty. She is extravagant
and wasteful. -
! He is a professional man, interested
in serious reading. She never reads
lanything except the fashion notes and
the society page in the newspapers.
He thinks great deal of his duty
towards others She is only selfishly
bent on getting the best for herself.
He is amiable. She is high-temper-
ed and cannot even get along with her
own mother.
Now altho this girl fascinates the
young man, and he loves her dearly,
he doubts the wisdom of marrying
her. and asks me what 1 think about
it, and if he can change the girl into
something nearer to his ideal of what
a woman should be.
1 thinlS~that marriage between peo-
pie who look at life from opposite
standpoints. and whose tastes differ
on every subject from politics to pie,
is madness The holy estate is bound
for them. on which they fight out to
a finish every question that arises be-
tween them
Nobody's ideal of being happy is to
De SCTappy. Inc peOplc WHOM we lONC
and enjoy being with, are not those
who antagonize US at every turn, and
who keep our fur rubbed continually
the wrong way. Those of whose So
ciety we never tire are the congenfal
souls who think as we think, who are
interested in the same subjects we are,
who enjoy the same things that we
do, who can even mount the same
hobbies that we ride and canter along
contentedly at our sides.
This is particularly true of matri-
mony where happiness or misery is
made up, for the most part, of a null
titude of little things Comparatively
few husbands and wives commit any
great sin against each other, but null
titudes of husbands and wives bore
each other to extinction because they
have no common interest, or they get
on each others nerves because they
differ on every subject under the sun.
A woman who is as interested In
her husbands business as he is. can
make an evening at home thrillingly
interesting for both of them by listen
ing with bated breath while he dis
courses about the grocery trade, or
discusses his patients or his law pa
tients with her. whereas, the wife
who yawns in her husbands face when
he tries to tell her of his life work,
can send him to the club for company,
and shed tears over her own forlorn-
ness in being left alone. A religious
man can have his heart broken by
wife who sneers at his faith, and he
can be kept in q perpetual wrangle
over points of dogma. Many a family
has been broken UP over infant bap-
tism and open or close communion.

Questions ANSWERS

Q. Where did the Indians get their flint

A. The Bureau of Ethno1ogy says that
Indians got flint ebert from river beds
and shaped them by percussion with other
stones, producing rude shapes OF the arrow

Then with horns they faxed off the stones
until the desired shapes were obtained.

PASSENGER FARES.

The Kansas Industrial court in a
few days will hand down q decision
on the application OF the railroads in
this state for an increased freight and
passenger fare.
>Kansans as a whole recognize the
fact that the railroads with their
higher wage awards need additional
revenue, but it is the general belief
that the reverde should be granted
from freight. not passenger fares.
Freight rates can be absorbed much
more easily than passenger fares. The
revenue from freight is higher to the
roads. The increase can be applied
more generally and with lighter
weight on the public. Railway Of
ficiais always have admitted that pas
senger service was given at a loss.
The action of the Industrial court
in insisting that lower rates be
charged in Kansas than in interstate
business is supported with consider
able approval over the state. Kan
sans always have held that the rail-
ways were given more than they asked
by the interstate commerce commits
sion-and they asked for more than
they expected to get. If the roads
are able to earn per cent they should
be satisfied. If this percentage is car
ried out in interstate business it is
sufficient.
The public is becoming we'll edu-
Gated in railway affairs. And it is
well that they should. Railways and
railway service are of vital importance
to all lines of industry and all condi-
tions of living. The industrial court
asked for figures showing the neces-
sary revenue to produce a net of g
per cent and the court had the public
at heart when it made these demands.
The interstate commerce commits
sion is a well organized body to handle
the interstate affairs of the railways
of this country but their decisions
should not deprive the states from
the power Of handling local problems
with local utilities bodies or commits
sioAs.
Kansas is awaiting with interest the
decision of the Industrial court.

The Lyrics of the Ycstcryear!

The Lyrics of the Ycstcryear!
1t has been suggested hiatt the col
unn give currency to other lyrics of
the yesteryear. Unfortunately. most
OF them are out of print and only a
few cling to the memory. And so we
are going to ask readers of the column
to contribute what they consider to
be the most agonizing of the heart
cries, the most CHASTITY of the lyrical
offenses of the thirty years last past.
We present today the chorus of The
Picture That Is Turned Towrad the
Wall" as sung by Reese Prosser. We
consider it almost the equal to THE
Fatal Wedding:
There's a name that's never spoken;
Another heart half broken
There IS just another missing,
From she old home, that is all;
There is still a memory living,
A father unforgiving,
And picture
That is turned toward the wall.
Men make some progress. They have
learned to unfold a folding chair. But
setting up a spindIe-legged card table
still tricks them.
Any idle man can get into trouble.
but it takes one of marked mental
resources to loaf and like it.
Those who, thru the column, were
an apartment probably thought the
battle over when we rented one. But
we were less sanguine. We knew Ade-
laide wouldn't like the wallpaper.
A woman can endure toll, hardship
and privation, and often does SO. But
the wallpaper must be right"

And they will know the rest;
Just tell them am looking well, you know
Just whisper. il you get Il chance,
To mother dear and say:
