THE ELECTION

1t is too early to tell exactly what
happened at tbe polls yesterday but
enough is known to establish the fact
that the Republicans have sustained
heavy losses in various parts Of the
country. New York and Indiana have
swung back into the Democrat col
umn- In the defeat of Beverage In
the Hoosier state the whole country
sustains a distinct loss
An outstanding feature OF the cleo
ton is that labor has stood together
as it never did before and established
its claim to recognition as a political
force in the future Organized work.

HEART AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State journal
BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: have been
married three years and have a baby
girl two years old. Before I married
my husband loved me 50 much that
he couldn't bear to be out of my sight.
He loved me so mnch that / didn't
know whittier L cared for him. 1t
wasn't always pleasant to have him
around, but every minute he could be
at our house he spent there. When
he asked me to marry him couldn't
make up my mind, because L didn't
feel I loved him enough. My par
ents liked him so much, however.
and seemed so eager that 1 finally
gave my consent.
1t is funny, but after he had me
he didn't seem to be quite so devoted.
For the first year, however, he was a
pretty good husband He came home
nights most of the time and when he
didn't come I knew where he was.
Then a very pretty young girl started
to work in the office where he works
and he fell in love with her. Whether
he is fascinated by her because he is
married and can't have her, or
whether he really loves her is more
than 1 can say. At any rate, he thinks
about her all the time, compares me
to her and is ugly to the baby and me.
About a month ago he said he
couldn't stand his life any longer and
he was going to be with the woman
he loved whether I liked it or not.
Since then he has been away from
night. I have talked of divorce and
he says that is not possible because
of our little girl. He claims to love
her and says he thinks we ought to
able to arrange matters so that we
need not separate. He also seems to
be afraid of what his employer will
think If our trouble becomes known.
At first when L found my husband
loved someone else 1 was very I'M
happ and loved him more than ever
b4fora Now 7 inst feel Disguised and
want to be away from it all and free.
My parents would take care of baby
so that L could work, 1 am sure
am an only child and they would do
anything to make me happy.
I am desperate about things would
you advise me to go to my parents
and not ask for a divorce. or would
YOU advise me TO stay where am for
a while? I would be willing to get
divorce and be free again if you didn't
think that would hurt my child:
DISGUSTED.
Your husband has a selfish and
cowardly character If he had not
been so utterly selfish he would have
fought off his desire for the other
woman, but instead he let his desire
grow until he has brought tragedy to
himself and his family.
Leave him at once since you know
that he is no longer true to you. I
think when he finds that you have
gone away and taken the baby his
eyes will be opened and he will find |
that after all he loves you and not
the other woman. I would advise you
to let the matter OF divorce rest for
two or three months. After you have (
been at home with your parents for |
awhile and awas from him, you will I
know more truly just how much you
care for him. In case you find that [
you feel only disgust consider your /
self and get divorce.

The woman's Decalogue-f.

Wos1s's a1ghesa Paid Wcuaan Wrssse,

The Woman's Decalogue-1.
Ambassador Harvey, who has been
making himself unpopular with the
fair sex by denying that it possesses
a soul, says that there "ain't no ten
commandments for women. and that
new deca1ogue will have to be writ
ten for them.
wonder what laws a modern Moses
would lay down for the conduct of
the woman of today? I wonder if he
would write on his tablet of stone:
Thou shalt not follow after false
gods. Thou shalt not worship Paris
frocks and millinery from the Rue
de la PaiX, nor fine houses, nor limou-
sines, nor social precedence. Neither
shalt thou bow the knee to the fads of
the day, and Offer up myself. and thy
family, as a sacrifice to clubs and
causes.
II.-Thou shalt marry for love, and
love only. for, verify. the woman who
selIeth herself at the altar for a meal
ticket, or a string of pearls, is twin
sister to the Scarlet Woman.
III.-Thou shalt not make OF thy
husband a slave whom thou worketh
to death to provide thee with fine
raiment, and trips, and motor cars.
Rather shalt thou cherish him, and
deny thyself, that his burdens may
be lightened.
IV.-Thou shalt not steal thy
neighbours husband, nor the maid
from out of her kitchen.
V.-Thou shalt set savory food be-
fore thy Iord when he returneth of
an evening from his Iabors, and thou
shalt make ,thyself as agreeable in
his eyes after marriage as before mar
riage, for thu woman is a cheat, and
a welcher, who lureth a man into
matrimony, and then feedeth him out
of paper bags, and groucheth around
the house.
VI.-Thou shalt not begrudge the
price of motherhood. The woman who
turneth her babes over to hirelings.
and raiseth her children on the streets
committeth the objectionable sin. I'm
less thou art willing to walk the collie
instead of foxtrot, or spend thy even
ings telling fairy stories and hearing
little prayers. to preside over the nur-
sery tea table instead of shining at
the bridge Ia BILE, and to be always
within call of 'Mo-o-other'' instead
of joy-riding, then pray God thou wilt
be childless. For those who take in
vain the sacred name of mother, shall
aSSuredIy be CANNED

Laughter and jest and kindly ways

Where happily the board is spread
With all the gentle wife raise.

Here is joy too rich for praise.

And sweet with memories our walls
Bestows on us the gifts OF fnlrth
And strength for every blow that falls.
