aren't many American society
women bnrcocd by cheap Europcan n
nristocracv and by cheap titled and

terrible objection to such picture as
Foolish Wives? Is It Just because a
man will NOT admit that some Of his sex
are very gcntlcmanly cads and ours :

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

Dear Mrs Thompson: L am a
young married woman about twenty
four years old L have been married
seven years and have four little
children My baby is two years and
nine months old now. am Just crazy
flor an infant son, but my husband
doesn't care for children. I guess it
is because he is so much older than Z
am Every time / say anything to
him about an infant he says we have
more than We can-say grace over. JIG
is good to me and gives me anything
ask for as far as he is able. I do
believe that he loves me. I am in
good health and so is he and Z don't
see why he doesn't love children. His
mother was the mother of eight chill
dren and my mother was the mother
CT fourteen. All of my sisters hus-
bands love children. and they have
from two to six children. Please adj
wise me what to do. I would like to
gain his love for children in some way.
BROKEN MOTHER.
You are already so blessed in hav=
ing four children, that it seems'to mo
you are unreasonable not to be willing
TO stop there. Probably your husband
loves the four he ALREADY has, but
breads the responsibility of increasing
his family.
In reality you will have quite enough
to do if you devote yourself to your
four children. After you have minis
is much you can do in a spiritual way.
Read to them, play with them, and
be their best friend. Try 10 be a real
list instead of an idealist. You think
it would be ideal to have a baby son.
but while you spend your time think
ing and longing for that. you are vast
ing time which might be used to de-
Velop the children you already have.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: There is to
be surprise birthday party on a boy
friend of mine. All of us have been
requested to bring a present which
does not cost over fifty cents. What
would you suggest for me to take?
THANK YOU.
You might buy linen and make the
boy a handkerchief. because you could
not buy a finished one that Is good
at that price, or you might make NhfFgl
a box of candy. If he plays cards 4
deck of cards would be an acceptable
gift.

JUST FOLKS
THE PLEASURE SEEKERS
BY EDGAR A. GUEST.

'Tis fine to walk with merry folk, It's
good to sing with glee,
lis sweet to laugh in fellowship but life
demands its fee;
And man may dance and man may laugh
and walk with idle men,
But when the days of pleasure pass, what
then, what then, what then?
The jewellers are light of heart and cares
thing they scorn-
They wave their hands at sober men who
trudge to work at morn;
They pass the burden-bearer by and mock
the dreams they hold,
But wasted are their years of life when
pleasures fires grow cold.
The laughter and the jest are sweet, but
man must build and toll.
And man must bridge the mountain
streams and till the virgin soil;
And none may daEce his years away on
pleasure solely bent
And hope ut last to come to age respected
and content.
'Tis good TO walk with laughing men snd
dance to music gay. =
tbs sweet to gather pleasures hours AMI
ling them all away,
But tho he be Of humble birth. and tho
he be a king.
4 man must bear the cares OF life and do
3 some useful thing

The men in congress who are advo-
eating a ship subsidy are the same
men who have done what they could
to curta1 foreign commerce by voting
for the Fordney-AIcCumber tariff bill.
What American shipping thus loses in
carrying trade it is proposed to have
the taxpayers make good thru the
subsidy. The people are to be taxed
to keep in operation ships in ballast
and at the same time are to be taxed
thru the operation of the tariff. The
beneficiaries OF this program are the
manufacturers and the ship owners
II tariff duties prevent US from buying
abroad they also will prevent US from
selling abroad because Europe can
only pay for our products in goods.
What need. therefore, will there be
for an American marine?

The compensation proposal. if car
ried, VIII give the boys 81 a day for
each day in actual service Bonds of
the state m an amount not exceeding
SIS. 200, 900 will be issued. They are
to be issued only as needed and by a
special commission created by the leg
islative act. The bonds will bear not
more than 515 per cent interest and
will be entirely retired within twenty
six years.
In voting a bonus to her sons who
fought in the world war Kansas will
be merely following a course adopted
in many other states. The bond issue
will not disturb the states credit nor
will it mean the enormous AJAX increase
claimed by opponents OF the proposal
The Kansas bonus does not in any way
affect the federRl bonus plan.
Kansans should not Rail to register an
affirmative vote for the bonus in
Tuesdays election. Only thru an af-
firnative vote can the boys win. In
order TO carry the compensation pro-
posaI it must receive a clear majority
of the votes cast in the election. If
the highest vote Tuesday is for gov
ernor supreme court Justice or sec
rotary of state, the vote favoring the
bonus must be a majority of that to-
tai. Failure to vote is vote against
the bonus. Vote yes.
