for review.
This is a complete advanced
course in domestic science and
home economies boiled down ia
meet the requirements Of the
housewife and the student.
The entire course consists of
twenty practical lessons-one
hundred pages filed with the
most valuable information the
housewife can possess-hereto-
fore taught only in domestic
science schools.
Do you know the relative value
Of food, which fruits to use for
cooking, what purpose salads
serve, the correct use Of condi-
ments, about proper kitchen
equipments, about q. s. Govern
ment's bulletins. how to reduce
the high cost Of LIVING, how to
promote and protect your own
and your families health. how to
make housekeeping simpler and
more economical and pleasant by
utilizing modern science III the
home.
This book. we note, is sriced
at $500 per copy and from what
we understand it contains corr

DEFYING THE LAW.

1t has become SO much of Gus
tom for corporations to defy the
law that we are not at all sur
prised to learn that the Cumber.
land Telephone & Telegraph Com
pany is going to tell the State of
Louisiana to go to Hades and
take it's laws and its Railroad
Commission with it, in the event
that the Railroad Commission re-
fuses permission for the Cumber-
land to raise its rates throughout
the state. We say we are not sur
prised, but We are. in measure,
for we had almost come to believe
that the days of outlaws and rev.
olutionaries had past. Yet, if
even a big corporation can get
away with open defiance Of the
law, why cannot the individ-
ual do likewise? Whether they
are trying to bulldoze the Rail-
road commission or really mean
to defy the law and the consti-
tuted authorities of the state we
know not, and it makes no diff
ference. The proper manner Of.
procedure in common decency
and good citizenship would be to }
take the matter up in an orderly
manner in the courts, if the COM
pany should feel aggrieved, and
abide by the result as the people
would have to do. 1t is the time

pany would get the worst Of it,
no doubt, but the patron who re-
fused to pay the illegal increase

the illwill Of the public and in

HERE'S A NOVEL SUCCESS
TON

In a letter to Governor Shonp,
George Smith, d Colorado farmer,
asks the state executive to get a
law passed bv the legislature aE-
thorizing every farmer TO have
two wives. Smith advances sew
eral reasons for his request, which
it must be conceded is decidedly.
novel.
First Of all, he says his one wife
is sick. Secondly, he is unable
to hire farm labor, because no
body wants to live on a farm any
more. In the third place. a sec
ond wife should be- companion
for the one he now has. Lastly,
the authorization Of a plural mar
riage by tilers Of the soil would
be great force towards sending
young men from the cities to the
farms, thus stimulating needed
agricultural production and re-
lievine urban congestion.
These are all pretty good rea.
tsons-from the viewpoint of
George Smith. Doubtless, his
present wife being sick, he needs
more help on his farm. Doubt
less, also, he is having difficulty
in securing that help, because
certainly there is a growing dis
inclination toward farm life. And
there is probably some measure
If truth in his argument that. if
farmers alone could have two
wives many young men would go
to the farms. Is
But there are t least two posi-
lie objections to Georges plan
several, in fact. The first is that
Mrs. Smith should be interviewed
as to whether she desires COM
,anion before one is made eligible
by statute. We imagine very few
wives, even on the most remote
sarms, would choose companion
ship at the price of divided af-
lection from their husbands. |
And, admitting that many young
men might, desiring two wives,
or being in the unhappy situation
Of being unable to choose between
two young charmers, 60 to the
farm. nothing is said as to how
they are to be kept there. It
would scarcely be- practicable to
require man with two wives to
ahandon. eas~ef them If he re-
turned to the city. Finally, pas
saaes ofssach slaw as George
Smith suggests would be class
legislation, and we can picture
kilEnuif of protest that would go
up from men compelled for one
reason or another. to reside in
the cities. and tl1rs~be deprived Of
the privilege Of polygan1y.
Altogether. we think the dis
advantages Of Georges scheme
outweigh the practical benefits to

the hardest we have had in long
time, New York City alone hay

statistics for last year. which have
just been published, show a re-
markable decline in the criminal
population Of New York. 1t was
a comparatively prosperous year.
and there was little unemplOy-
ment.
This seems to indicate that eco.
nomic conditions have a direct
bearing on the prison population.
How much more it could be re-
duced by improving economi:
conditions still further, we can
not say. But it does seem obvious
that in all probability the prison
population will tend to decline
with the Improvement in the gem
