\ WIFE'S LODGE RIGHTS.
(Ellshart Truth.O

An Ohio sued his wife for divorce on the
grounds of neglect alleging that she srent much OF
her time attending lodge meetings
This has a strangely familiar sound except that
additionally the complaint comes from the other
side of the house The outcome is interesting be-
cause of its modernity and because OF the incl
dental remarks made by the judge.
The court, after hearing the testimony turned
right around and granted divorce the defendant
that not only has wife a right attend lodge
meetings but in view OF the additional duties thrust
upon woman because of her acknowledgements, poll
teal meetings should be added the list, and pro-
ceeded:
"The question at issue here is to what extent a
woman attend meetings without being guilty OF
neglect, and the test is, Does it interfere with
the home?
Husband and wife owe each other OF course.

AVOIDABLE LOSS OF LIFE.

Prodigal waste is a characteristic OF our present
civilization. Much Of it might easily be avoided
certainly something should be done to reduce loss
OF human life and property by carelessness or lack
of necessary legislation. There were $1,000 persons
killed on highways Of the United States in the past
10 months. 1900 more than persisted in an equal
period Of active American lighting abroad, In New
York state 166 persons were killed in traffic acct
dents during May alone. OF these 80 children.
or the $4,000. some 5000 were children OF school
age.
When the automobile first took its place upon our
roads il was often visualized as a modern jugger-
naut we have perfected relatively clumsy motor
cars OF an earlier day. We have yet sufficiently
perfected the regulation OF motor traffic. since the
resulting mortality remains so high.
There were upward Of y 900 suicides in the
United States last year and of this number some
150O were Of children Suicide IS as easily proven
table as motor accidents. Psychiatric clinics offer
help az the right moment 10 desperate human be-
irrs A better understanding OF the problems OF
chudhood by teachers and Parents would svert
many OF the touchingy tragic suicides OF children.
In other fields OF destruction. huge life
waste goes on. But In at least OF the other
fields il has been lowered. Railroad accidents took
nearly 1000 lives in 1907 They less than 1000
in 1913 Years OF agitation their resulted in
measures that reduced the mortality a less need

He'd get a piece of underwear and
shine it up some more.
He'd sweep the carpets every day
and oil each separate part,
He'd always rub and shine a bit be-
fore he'd make a start.
And twice a week in rubber boots
and overalls Of brown
He'd work for hours so he might
have the cleanest car in town.
But that was in tn. long ago. and
now the car is old,
There's mud upon the running gears
and in the manifold,
The axles now are thick with grease,
for Pa declines to soil
His hands or scrape his knuckles
bare to give it dope and oil.
The bus has lost the shine IL had, its
stylish days are done,
Pa doesn't care now how It looks so

And never more he'll wash the gears
and shine the body, too,
Pa says he'll leave that work for

More Truth
Than Poetry

THE REFORNrER

I'm rather fond of cherry pie.
I love, with all my heart,
When days are warm, in mid July
To munich a cherry tart.
But if this CHEEKY. CHEEKY song
Some glum reformer sees
Tomorrow he will come along
And kill my cherry trees.
I like 70 paddle my canoe
Beneath the summer moon,
And whistle. as l often do,
An ancient rag-time tune.
But If the said refOrmer knows
That Of this sport I'm fond,
He'll come around here, I suppose.
And drain my padding pond.
like to hear a robin sing;
II rests and comforts me,
To watch the little fellow wing
His way from tree to tree.
But If Of this delight Of mine
The man re mentioned heard,
Twould cheer r Is soul, like rare old
wine,
To shoe. tho helpless bird.
The pleasures that my soul divert
I have 10 take by stealth,
Although I know they do not hurt
Ny mora s or w health.
For my reforming friend declares
They simnly shant be done,
AID censors al OF my affairs
That bring me any fun.

MAKING THE MOST OF YOURSELF.

Did It ever you that the story OF your hfe
would make a thrilling novel or movie? Sometimes
your life gets dull and boresome-which is wise
provision Of Providence. for it's only by contrast
that you get thrills and excitement. steady diet
OF excitement would become as monotonous as
constantly drab existence.
Have you ever narrowly escaped death2
Have you had an interesting. romantic love af
falr2
Have you had a great sorrow. sudden reverse Of
fortune or any other great loss?
Those are the high spots OF thrilling movie
and the reason why the story most interesting 10
you is one in which you imagine yourself fitting
in quite naturally as one of the characters
study the faces Of people you ride with in South
Bend street cars. II you had mind-reading powers,
you'd md startling emotions existences
behind their mute face-masks. The plain human be-
ing-you he and she-are the interesting
things in the world
For instance. peek into the life Of real person.
Jim. lie was eight years old when he landed with
his family from Wales. At nine he shining
shoes running errands and ringing auctioneers
bell in a Pennsylvania iron town. Ten years later.
ne was an iron puddler at Sharon, Pa Stripped to
his waist sweat rolled off him as he toiled before
a blast furnace.
That immigrant boy-Jim-is now James J.
Davis. secretary of labor.
Thrilling illustration Of the unlimited opportuni-
ties of America and of the of one indi-
vdduals life No doubt those early days in the iron
towns seem to him the most interesting of his
career.
When you are old and look back, what period
Of your life will appeal to you the most thrilling
and romantic? The present?
