Governors Wife Shows Way.
From the Minneapolis Journal.

In this day, when the tendency is away
from the home, it is good to ind someone
who cherishes the hearthstone. The statement
of Martha McKelvie, wife OF the governor
of Nebraska, that she keeps up tWenty-ohe
room house without the aid of servants, cooks
all the meals, does the family washing, cares
for the children and still finds time for her
social duties as first lady Of the state is not
only startling but significant.
The very fact that Mrs. McKelvie's achieve
ment draws front-page publicity Throughout
the land shows how far the pendulum OF lam
ily life in this country has swung IN genera
ton Yesterday such story would have been
commonplace. Today it is unique. Then the
first desire of the newly married was to have
their own home.
In a former generation mother not only
personally cared for the home, but found time
to spin, card and weave the cloth tor every
garment Even the flour and soap OF that day
were home made. Everyone worked and was
happy.
Today the situation is just the opposite. The
age is one of luxuries. The automobile has
supplanted the home as the first desire OF

the family gathered about the table IN the

The Youngsters are off to a movie palace,

day. It takes only four minutes to prepare
1t was Socrates who exclaimed in the mark
IF place: How much there is in the world
that I do not need or want" The motto is
a good one for the American home. AS ma
ton we shall awake some day to find that the
ease we have invited has been the death of
us In going out from the home we have
stunted the moral development OF our chill
dren We are seeking personal comforts in

values of the home.
Mrs. McKelvie has made a real contribu-
ton by showing the way to happiness through
service.

Juanita's Wedding.

The world has been told but the world will
never understand just why Juanita Miller,
daughter of the dead poet of the Sierras, in
du1ged her wild fancy to be remarked to her
husband in fantastic pagan ceremony out
in California. Juan Miller already was her
husband They had been married by JUS
tice of the peace some time before Justices
of the peace are generally considerd capable
of tying very secure knots, but Juanita was
told in vision" that she and Juan must
needs go through a ceremony in an esthetic
atmosphere in which they were to be united
in the eyes of the gods" 1t all sounds like
moonshine their marriage in the moonlight
after the cuckoos had all gone to bed. 1t will
be left to the future to determine whether
JUAN belated in returning home will meet
betrayal when the cuckoo clock tells him
and also Juanita that the time is 3 in the
morning; but Juan may not be that kind of
cuckoo himself.
To go on with the wedding: a bier of
flowers for Juanita to recine upon in robes
of white, candles at her head and her feet,
''conjugally dead as she and her intellectual
friends understood and then to be brought
back to life by the ecstatic kiss of Juan,
dressed in white flannel trousers and fam
ing red smock. Twas a colorfu thing that
wedding and Juan's smock also could quail
fly. There was a second act in which Juan
played the part of big chief" and Juanita
was his "squaw." Clever Juanita won her
way into the "big chiefs" affections by roast
ing bit of goat meat and grinding corn be-
tween two stones, Juan accepted her there
upon, and the pagan ceremony was over.
According to the story of this unusual
ceremony it lasted all night, for it is told how
the squirrels looked on as the 'intellectuals'
offered congratulations and Fluctuations to
the reincarnated pair. There is just one thing
left to the imagination. and it is suspected
that nature students will wonder about it con-
siderably The writer of the story failed to
say whether or not the squirrels tried to bite
Juan and Juanita. Bet they did.

Trouble OH the Screen.

Is trouble entertaining? Judged by the
way it is top-lined in the motion picture dra-
ma it is. For example there is that kind of
play in which the author at the beginning
submerges his characters in a sea of trouble
and spends the remainder OF the evening get
ting them out. There is moment of happi-
ness at the beginning and another at the end
ing, and between the two there is nothing but
trouble-grief, disappointment, sin, wretch
edneSs, tears, the whole gamut. Is there not
enough of all this trouble in real life without
having Il presented to us on the screen? Why
not plays of happiness and enjoyment? Ev-
erybody likes to be happy. Why do not the
scenario writer's and producers give us hap
piness on the screen-goodness, not wicked
ness; purity, not sin; joy, not sorrow; laugh
ter, not tears; peace, not conflict? Sometimes
they do showing it can be done.

Bonus for Prisoners.

The plan suggested by Attorney General
Daugherty to pay prisoners in the federal
penitentiary at Atlanta bonus per yard for
all the cloth they manufacture is seen in the
light of its humanizing effect. The prison
ers are to have cents for every yard of
fabric they turn out which in long sentences
might result in a considerable aggregate. 1t
would thus be possible for a prisoner to
serve his sentence and leave the prison with
some kind of competence. The possession OF
money creates the feeling of self respect 1t
also, by virtue of the self respect imbued
establishes belief in personal independence
a thing which former prisoner can use to
great advantage if he chooses to work out
a new and better destiny.
AS Mr. Daugherty recalled, prisoner is
discharged with new suit OF Clothes nee
essarily Of an inferior grade, and ticket to
his home These scant possessions do not
go far in giving the prisoner a new start in
life Certainly they do not contribute greatly
in starting him on the right road in which
the government ought to be interested as
means for the prisoners reclamation.
The attorney-general who has indicated
before that he may be actuated by innate
human qualities, says that he does not see
why we should not give these men (the pris
oners) something in the way of incentive"
He sees the possibility of increasing the
measure of their contentment while increas-
ing their product and the total of their bo
nus per yard He says further: eff they learn
to work and find that work will yield them
something, the prospect holds out some
hope. 1t just occurred to me that we
might make men and goods at the same
time" The plan is something new in prison
reform 1t leaves the impression that it is
worthy.

SPONGE A QUEER ANIMAL.
The Part That Reaches Market Is Only
The Skeleton.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.

Sponges were long thought to be vegeta-
bles, but they are now Known to be animals.
market is SO unlike that of the living sponge
that it is quite to be expected that seeing it
only in use one would hardly suspect its orr
gin.
The sponge grows mostly at the bottom
of the sea rocks to which it is fixed by a
substance and framework of tough fbers.
This framework is really the skeleton of the
sponge; it is the sponge of commerce. The
skeleton is covered with jellylike substance
and is sticky when taken out of the water.
They are usually buried in dry. sand for a
put in wire cages into the sea until they are
washed clean.
