The Deeber Wounds Of War

IF people more readily envisaged the hor-
rors of war, there would be less of peril
to the bases of peace-not only the hor-
rors Of trench and field but, as WELL the SLOW
grim tragedy that broods upon millions Tar
behind the flash of battle. Who imagined
what the catastrophe of 1914 would mean to
mankind: the disruption and backset 1T
would bring to the life of nations and of
persons, victor and vanquished; the econom-
ic and social ills it would engender, the sor-
did as well as savage passions it would pc
stir; the disease, and famine, and demoral1-
hardened militarist of Potsdam would have
sown those dragon teeth had he been capable
of foreglimpsing 1.-THE of the harvest.
War no longer is conflict of armies alone
but of peoples, every atom of whose energies
is drawn into the swirl of blood every as
pect of whose life is overcast. No purse is
left untouched, no heart mistaken, no proc
ess of living undisturbed, no interest, from
the largest to the least, uninvaded. 81 re-

MONG my acquaintances Is a young
~ woman who married widower with
whom she is very much in love. The
man is model husband, tender, kind, de-
voted, and he provides his wife with beau
tiful home, and all the other comforts Of
life.
Nevertheless, the woman is bitterly un-
happy, and spends much OF her time in
tears because she imagines that her husband
loved her predecessor better than he does
her.
Imagine my sufferings," she walls
when he speaks of her, as he often does,
in my presence. He will even tell me of
places they went together, and of things
they saw and did. Every word is like knife
blade in my heart, and I think it will kill
me-"
Queer, isn't it, how far some people will
go to hunt for trouble? This poor woman
is letting her morbid fear Of ghost rob
her of all the happiness that lucky fate has
bestowed upon her, and she hasn't enough
gumption to realize that the wife whose only
rival is dead one ought to be down on her
knees thanking Heaven for its mercy for
her.
1t is the women whose husbands fancies
are straying off after living pictures who have
got something to worry about, and grow
green-eyed over.
Certainly a woman who marries widow
er, and then torrents her husband with her
game. She knew what she was doing. She
knew that her husband had loved another
woman, had married her, had tried to be a
good husband to her, and had mourned her
death when he lost her.
What poor ideals of honor, and loyalty,
and mans duty to his wife, woman must
have if she expects her husband to blot out
even the memory of this other woman who
gave herself to him, and did her uttermost
to make him happy. Would the woman who
wants her husband to forget his first wife
as completely as if she had never lived, like
to think that if she, also, should die, in a
few months time he would cease to remem-
Der her, or their life together? I trow not.
Even the woman who is most anxious for
her husband to be disloyal to the memory
of his first wife wants to believe that he
would be faithful to her memory, and that
if she died nobody could ever quite take her
place in his heart.
This jealousy of the first wife by the sec
ond wife Is very common because every
woman yearns to be a mans first love. This
is an impossibility to all except the cradle
snatchers. If woman marries a man who is
out Of his teens, she may be very sure that
there have been other women before her, for
mans heart is like hotel kept on the
European plan that entertains many tran

Vice President Calvin Coolidge, who came

Just because there are more homes thar
ever, and therefore more unsuccessful famit

good things of life, not the bad. ::

DEMAND FOR FURTHER LIGHT
Connecticut Newspaper Wants to
Know More About Buying Wom-
ems Shoes for 81 Pair.

A Bridgeport (Conn.) paper tells Its
readers that large manufacturing
establishment in its city is aiding its
employees by selling shoes and coal
to the operatives at a reduced rate.
Listen to this, FOR example:
Women's shoes, durable, stylish and
cheap withal, are being distributed to
workers who want them for 50 a pair.
The significance of the 50 price is
seen In comparison with ordinary
shoe price schedules. The shoes are
sold on two days each week and sew.
eral hundred pairs still remain.
As to the coal, 1t is sufficient to say
that the corporation Is furnishing
three carloads a week to its employees
at $3.50 ton, which does not strike
~ a. such marvel as the sale Of
shoes at So pair, but as to this we
should welcome further information,
says the Hartford Courant. If 1t Is
possible to buy shoes at once durable
and stylish at 81, the fact has gained
precious little publicity in the last
four years, even among women, and
We should suppose that the women Of
Bridgeport would be apt to mention
the fact to the dealers In the city.
Surely there must be men employed
by this corporation who would be glad
to find 1t dealing in footwear for them,
inasmuch as mere man will need shoes
within month or so at the best. Why
not sell them durable and stylish
shoes at say, 81? We shall watch the
further development of this plan with
some interest.

Cotton is the one best money crop
for the South. and probably always
will be. The time OF war prices is
over and the problem from now on is
to lower cost of production and at the

Cost Of making cotton is primarily
the cost OF food, grain and forage

Cutting food, grain and forage costs
