The chief reason why there is so
much friction in the average house
hold is because the husband has al
ways been a man, and the wife has
always been a woman, and neither one
has any understanding of the difficult
ties and problems OF the other, or any
sympathy with them.
You often hear a man say to his
wife: Good Lord, you don't know
when you have things easy! All you
have to do is to stay quietly, and safe
" at home, and keep the house, and
look after the Children Seems to me
as If any half way intelligent woman
could do that with one hand tied be-
hind her. I only wish 1 had that soft
a snap!"
And the woman retorts by saying:
Much work you do, sitting around in
a handsomely furnished office, smok-
ing twenty-five cent cigars, and swap
ping stories with other men who are
tired business men like you, until you
go out to eat a two dollar lunch that
it takes you two hours to consume!
your working day is from nine
until five. My workingVday runs thru
all the twenty-four hours because
there is no minute of the time when
a wife and mother isn't on her job.
I don't see how a man has got the
nerve to even mention his work to his
wife,
And there you are. Each one be-
lieves that he or she got the hot end
of the matrimonial bargain, and that
life is a perpetual picnic 70 the other.
1t is because husbanAs and wives
do not understand what the other one
goes thru that they complain of each
other, instead of pity each other, and
it is unfortunate that some way can
not be devised by which, they can oc-
casionally swap jobs for a week or
two. If they could. each would return
to his or her own sphere of activity
filled with admiration for the ability
of the other and sloshing over with
sympathy for the worries with which
the other must daily contend.
Sometimes a man does get a taste of
woman's work when his wife is sick
Then he ascertains that it is easier to
manage a thousand dissatisfied men
on the verge of a strike than it is
three children. and that one small
teething infant can reduce an able
bodied man to the verge of nervous
prostitution in the course of single
afternoon.

Arthur Evans of the Chicago Trib-

,i.t.ons. He tells readers of his paper
That he has travelled 1000 miles in

more reliance upon machinery, more
capital in the possession Of farmers,
and in some measure better pay for la

Doubtless this will be good news to
the farmers of Kansas.

MAY BUILD PLATFORMS.
Protection of Street Car Patrons From
Autoists Being Considered.


Autoists Being Considered.
The question of protection for per-
sons boarding and alighting from To-
peka street cars led Mayor H. J. Cor
wine and Albert Patten, general man
ager of the Topeka Railway company,
to spend a half day in Kansas City in
vestigating' the raised platforms that
were built on the street corners there.
Mayor Corwine stated today that the
idea is losing in popularity in Kansas
City because Of the narrowness of the
streets. Several which were built
some time ago have been torn down,
so that only four or five remain in
the city. the mayor said.
They have been found rather i'm
practical there" he stated. However,
they might work all right here. where
the streets are wide."'
Patten mas Y expressed himself
strongly in favor of the platform idea
as a means of protecting street car
Apatrons from careless auto drivers, A
great many persons have been injured
during the last year by automobiles
while boarding. alighting from or
waiting for street cars.
No immediate action will be taken,
MayOr CorWine said.

Peace Delegates i'm Dark
Warsaw, Aug. 23.-It is assumed
here that representatives of the Rus
sian soviet government presented their
peace terms at the NIinsk conference
bfore the Polish delegates received
word from Warsaw of the decided
change in the military situation which
now favors Poland. 1t is believed in
diplomatic circles that the delegation
sent from this city to Minsk IS fully
informed of military and other devel-
opments but dispatches from the dele
gates have been given no hint that
the news has reached them.
One radio dispatch from Warsaw
has been ACKNOWLEDGED by George

at Minsk. Three Polish officers have
been sent TO Minsk with documents,
having been given safe conduct thru
the lines by the Bolsheviki.
