the Guide to the Genuine

1t is true saying that your
health is only as good as your
blood. Good, rich blood mani
tests itself in a healthy, natural
complexion; clear, keen eyes;
tireless energy and enthusiasm;
and an abundant supply of re-
serve strength.
And just as positively does
poor, thin blood directly infiu-
ence the entire system. Pale,
sallow compilations; dull eyes;
a listless step; languidness ;
tiredness; WORKOUT feeling;
general dejectedness and unhap-
piness-all are positive signs
that the body is not receiving it's
proper nourishment through the
blood.
Pepto-Mangan helps restore
vigorous health, because it con-
.tains the very elements so much
needed by the blood to enable it
to perform its functions and
supply the body with nourish-
ment, energy and strength.
For your convenience Pepto-

Dorothy Dix Talks
The wife and Her Money!.
By DOROTHY DIX
worlds Highest Paid Woman Writer.


Should woman who has property
of her own turn it over to her flus-
band when she gets married?
Ninety husbands out of a hundred
will answer this question in the af-
firmative. No idea is more thoroly
fixed in the average masculine con-
seriousness than the belief that when
there is any money in family it be-
longs by divine right in the breeches
pocket instead of the handbag 1t
seems an almost impious thing to most
men for a. woman to have financial
independence. and especially does it
seem an impious thing to a husband
for his wife to have money that she
can spend as she pleases without Civ
ing an account to him.
Men found out long ago that the
hand that holds the pocketbook is the
hand that rules, and that there is no
slavery more complete than that
which is comprised in one human be-
ing depending upon another for food,
and clothes. and shelter. The wife
who must look to her husband for ev-
cry mouthful she eats and every rag
on her back, and the shelter over her
head. is in a very different relation to
him than she would be If she had her
own bank account.
That is one phase of the matter.
Another is that practically every man
can use a little more money in his
business. Still another phase is that
every man is perfectly certain that he
knows more about handling money
than a woman does. and can invest 1t
to better advantage. Still another
phase Of the matter is that he reasons
that the money is all in the family.
ANYHOW, so why shouldn't ME have
the prestige of using 1t, and signing
the checks, and having the property
all in his name?
Wherefore he reaches out and grabs
wife's roll unless her father has held
different views concerning the rights
of a husband to his wife's property.
and has tied the money up in trust SO
that hubby cannot get his hands upon
IL. What husbands think about their
rights to their wives property is album
dainty proven by the fact that it has
taken years and years of bitter strug-
gle to get laws passed giving women
any property rights at all.
OF course there have been. and are,
many men who want their wives to
keep their own. Nor is every man
who feels that his wife should turn
over her property to him a CRATER, and
a sceundrel who means to cheat her
out of her money. 1t is mostly sur
vivalHof the old theory that a wife is
chattel who belongs to a man. ana
that what she has is his. but no mat
ter what the mans motives in taking
his wife's money from her. the effect
on her is the same.
She loses out. She is left dependent
on his bounty, and must ask of him
as a favor the money that belongs to
her by rights. She MAS given away
her birthright, and while one may ad-
mire her generosity one can but de-

FIGHTING THE H. G. L..

Several short cuts supposed to lead
to lower cost of living have been
tried, have failed and have been ADAM
doned. In our frantic endeavors to
do something about the high cost of
living, says The Review, we have
clutched at all sorts of straws, and at
mono more eagerly than that of prof
iteerlng." The hunt for profiteers has
taken many shapes, but the most con-
spicuous of them has been that of
sporadic crusades against the storage
of food products.
Four or five months ago. state and
federal agents in alt parts of the coun-
try were busily engaged in discover
ing supplies of eggs. and sugar. and
meats, which in their judgment were
more than ought to be allowed to re-
main in storage. and thrusting them
upon the market. The front pages of
the newspapers bristled with the fig
ures Of a million eggs here and a
thru the zeal of the Peoples officers
were rescued from the NAV of greedy
spectators.
We had got the beast by the tail at
last, and prices were to be reasonable
once more. OF course, nothing of the
kind happened. The price of eggs and
the price of sugar went higher than
ever-possibly not because of, these
seizures, but at least in spite Of them.
The fact was that besides the impos-
sibility of accomplishing the object
in, any such way-besides the circum-
stance that whatever effect it did pro-
duce was almost sure to be precisely
the opposite of what was intended
the amounts involved, large as they
looked to the unthinking. were too
| small to exercise any important influ-
ence on the general situation.
Apparently the price reducers have
decided to let matters take their nat
ural course. one governed by the law
of supply and demand and as a result
prices are showing signs of weakness
here and there. Reduced demand in
Europe and increased production in
this country are beginning to show
results, small but perceptible. The
downward movement will be acce1-
Grated il the comparative freedom
from strikes now prevailing shall con-
tinue.
1t is most desirable that fall in
prices be slow. A sudden slump would
be demoralizing to business and in the
end would do more harm than good.
The whole price situation is working
itself out. following the beaten paths.
Congress could help by removing such
artificial restraints as remain, not the
least of which is the excess profits
tax.
