REVEAL TTONS OF A WIFE

warmly welcomed by Lillian in her
wonderful brown-toned library, where
Betty had just laid a little fire.
''These first days OF spring are a lit
tie raw" Lillian said in explanation
as she drew our chairs up before the
hearth
Her appearance was almost enough
TO make me forget the trouble which
had brought me to her door. Her face
was glowing with exercise, and the
crown Of softly piled hair above it with
its wonderful silver tone made a regal
frame. And looked IN vain for traces
Of the humiliation and anguish / knew
to be her portion on account OF her
husbands caIlously brutal treatment OF
her, and because Of the irony which
had brought Robert Savarin back into
her life too late
For Lillian was masking whatever
unhappiness she might hold in her
heart behind a brilliant smiling coun-
tenance, as I'm the old days when, in
her own words, she was playing the
game with Harry" and had masked
her graying hair, her slightly aging
face behind an atrocious mask OF
rouge and powder and hair dye. be-
cause her husband. Harry Underwood
wished her 10 do so.
But / knew also that Lillian could
never be truly unhappy as long as her
little daughter, Marion from whom she
had been tragically separated for so
long and who had but recently been
restored, was with her. InstinctiveIy
looked around for the little thing who
was never far from her mothers side
Lillian took her with her on her trips
whenever possible, and employed g
governess instead of sending the child
to school. Her maternal love for Mar
ion was the one strong passion of her
life
Where is Afarion?" I asked.
Upstairs, asleep, poor little kiddie."
her mother returned, and the smile
which the thought of the child always
brought irradiated her face. "She was
so tired from the Journey that / had
scarcely taken off her wraps ard shoes
and had covered her up warmly, be-
fore she was sound asleep. / am afraid
shouldn't take her with me on those
trips. They're too fatiguIng"
Send her to ME whenever ycu go
away said promptly and sincerely,
ia love to have her"
y know it," Lillian flashed an af-
fectionate glance at me. but you
didn't come here to talk about Marion.
Sit down and tell me your troubles"

Newspapers and News"

A woman writing to a publication
called The Reform Advocate, roundly
scores newspapers in general for their
discourteous treatment OF woman con-
tributors. Quoting her article the Chi
cago News says; Mamie A. Refs dis
cusses at length the disappointments
of clubwomen in endeavoring TO OBJ
tain newspaper notices satisfactory to
them of the nlultitudinous activities of
their clubs Such notices, she asserts.
are frequently not published or else
they are cut down and otherwise
changed" She admits that the num-
Der of people interested in the various
notices referred to is not large, fire.
quently the appeal would be to a very
few. She also declares that in order TO
get notices printed Of benefited con-
certs, amateur theatricals, charity
balls, drives and the like it has been
necessary to employ some experts in
order to get the publicity needed to
make them q success.
Newspapers are primarily for the
dissemination of news, and it does not
seem to be possible for the public, es-
pecia1ly that part of the public which
has time 10 devote to charity balls and
drives and the like to realize that there
is any limit to the size OF newspapers
or any expense attached TO their pub-
lication. They are accustomed to send
ing in or telephoning in long stories
Of activities which interest them great
ly and maybe have interest also for a
dozen or a few score of others. When
the workers undertake to rewrite into
readable shape or compose the infor-
nation offered which may be more or
less a stretch Of the imagination into
q news item they understand that they
will be abused by the promoters Of the
entertainment, the drive or the call.
II is not possible, OF course, to know
Just what everybody desires to find
in a newspaper but many years OF ex-
Perience give an editor a fair idea Of
the way in which the average reader
goes over headlines and skips any
thing that has the least suspicion of
being press agents stuff" The wo-
man writer for The Chicago Reform
Advocate probably has sent notices to
newspapers and pleasantly asked them
to repeat this Tuesday. Wednesday

of them would be filled with pirates
armed to the teeth. as the books say.
'"Then they'd row nice and easy up
to the side of the ship, not making the
slightest noise to arouse the crew or
the watch. And then they'd climb
over the side Of the ship.
eft wouldn't be very hard to over
power the unsuspectin' watch. If they
had to fight, they'd do it quietly so as
not to stir up the others en- the boat.
Then they'd go after the sleeping
crew. Maybe they would kill the
whole bunch, or maybe only part Of
EN- and put the rest in chains.
Burn Forsaken Ship
Anyway, the pirates usually got
the best OF the ship. If It was bigger
and better than the ship they already
had. they'd burn their old one and
sail away in the new one. Prob'iy
they'd head for some town along the
coast where they could sell the
plumber they'd got. Or. maybe, they'd
decide to Keep going further out TO
sea and strike some uuinhabtted
island where they could throw OF
those men Of the captured crew that
were still alive. Then maybe they q
head for another island and there bury
their plumber. planning to return Tor
it some day.
AFTER that they'd start out after
more ships and plunder. That's the
way they worked. How'd you fellers
like to have been real pirates?'
Wen, we all thought it over for a
few minutes and then we decided all
at once that none of us would have
enjoyed being so tough as all that,
though we sure would like to sail out
in boats the way those real pirates
did and go some place where you can
do as you please.--AL sTUBBS, Scribe

WHAT RIGHTS SHALL AMERICAN
WOMEN HAVE7

An the legislation which might be
passed could net make man and a
woman alike. The fundamental diff
ference of sex and all that it implies
must forever forbid complete Similar
ity"
With this for a basis. Mrs. Florence
Kelly, of the National Consumers
league, sends broadcast some questions
which, she says, must be answered be-
fore the new proposed federal amend
ment proposed by the national wo-
mans party be considered by congress
and the state legislatures.
The proposed amendment as draft
ed, reads:
Section /. No political, civil, Gr IL
gal disabilities or inequalities on ac-
count of sex, or on account OF marriage
unless applying alike to both sexes,
shall exist within the United States
or any place subject to their jurisdic-
ton.
section 2. Congress shall have
power to enforce this article by appro-
pirate legislation"
Some of Mrs. Kelly's questions are:
"Wdll husbands need to continue to
support their wives?
THE payment of civilian widowed
mothers pensions is clearly an inc
duality on account of sex and of mar
riage, which does not apply alike to
both sexes. Shall widowers have pen
sions, or shall widowed mothers be
deprived of theirs?
''Will the amendment destroy the
new law popularity known as the Shop
pard-Towner bin. which creates an in
equality by reason OF sex, in favor of
women, maternity not applying alike
to both sexes?
what becomes of the dover rights
that women have in many states?
''NNill women be subject to conscrip-
tione
What will become of the Mann act,
which exists solely for the protection
of women and girls?
-'will those women wage -earners|
who now have the benefit of the stat
utory eight hour day, rest at night,
and one days rest in seven, lose these
advantages?
'Iow can they get an eight-hour
law for themselves in a state where
workingmen do not care to get it be-
cause they prefer negotiation backed
by organization to statutes?'
Washington legislators are finding
these questions worthy of thought,
whichever side they take in the mat
ter.

had few words to tell as about
pirates, so we all says all right. and
Ollie went ahead. Here's what he had
to say:
Pirates were a pretty rough
bunch" says he. eff man was an
outlaw and had a desp'rate and brutal
character he'd make good pirate.
on the Spanish Main
They were hsvin' their biggest
times in piratin' about $50 years ago.
The Spanish Main was their best
working field. for it was being trav-
eled a lot by ships going back and
forth from the new land, America
and all OF, them were pretty well load
ed with valuables.
THESE pirates would band them
selves together. and supposin' one day
they decide they'll get busy and steal
something. They got to have a boat.
So they pick out one that's layin' in
harbor. and some dark night they
sneak up and over-power the guard
and take possession of the boat. This
amt hard to do for the boats in har-
Dor wasn't guarded very heavy be-
cause nobody ever suspected that
pirates would attack.
''If it happened that the boat they'd
swiped wasn't big enough to stand
sailing far out TO sea, the pirates
would plan to stay close to shore and
attack other boats leaving the ports
loaded with valuable cargo.
Pirate Spy system
Maybe spies would be placed in the
different ports, and these fellers would
find out when certain boats were leav-
ing for other ports, where they were
going, what the cargo was. how
strong q crew was on board. and all
that kind of stuf. They'd report this
to the pirates. Then these fellers
would follow the ship out of the har-
Dor and when she got far enough from
land they'd attack her. Maybe they'd
do this at nidnight-eight bells.
Tn the quiet OF the night, q couple
of boats would be lowered over the
side of the pirate ship. and each one

then asked whether anyone else was
IN the house, when the mother sud
denly remembered that her baby was
asleep up stairs.
Mr.. Price leaped up the stairway
and, after cropping his way through
dense smoke, with flames roaring over
head, he found the infant almost suf-
located. The child was revived when
