8z and StiH Going Strong

escaped him. Everything interested him. That one day in Chicago took him from the slaughter house of the stock yards to the Art museum and the Museum of Natural History.
 In the home of his host where there was a beautiful collection of French paintings he was once again the ac- complished art critic. In the Museum of Natural History he was the trav- e1er and hunter. The elephants only served to remind him of the herd of living creatures he had seen in the jungle where, as he put it, every one was staring at him. And though the stock yards struck no answering note in his past experience, he was equal to the occasion with a grim joke and q bit of drollery, and above every thing else an impatient, keen interest.
 All this at s1 and still going strong How does he do it. How does he stay so young? Does he keep up this in terest in life because he is so young, or does the thing work the other way, and does he stay so young because he keeps up his interest in life?
 All Sorts of Circles
 The doctors talk of a vicious circle, cause and result chasing each other round and urging the other on to 1reSn disaster, such IS the case of the man who catches cold because he is tired, and then because he catches cold gets more tired and so on.
 We seem to forget that there are beneficent circles as well as vicious ones, and the Tiger seems to have found one of these. Nothing is seem ingly outside the range of his inter- est and experience, a glimpse of a bronze Buddah elicited clever re- mark that betrayed knowledge of Buddah's life, the animals being killed touched his interest and curiosity, the animals stuffed brought back days of sport and travel the walls of the art museum turned the light on an other facet of his character .- Clemenceau at S1, vigorous. many sided and forceful-what't the an swer? Has his many sidedness kept him young or his enduring vigor made it possible for him to retain his in- terest in life? Perhaps it is one of those beneficent circles in which one has helped the other.
 But certain it is that one can start the circle anywhere and keep it going 1 Would you at Al bring as much knowledge and interest to a day il 1 Chicago as the Tiger brought at Sl, 1 If you couldn't perhaps you better get busy.
 Here's another way to capture either. It's all in your head.

Jolly Your Wife, Husband,
 f You Want Your Rights
By DOROTHY DIX The Highest Paid Woman Writer in the World

ly recognized cause for divorce. Moreover, any man who is married Ito a wife who drass him around to boarding houses. and hotels to live should have right to return her to her parents on the ground that they have gold bricked him. and foisted counterfeit article of wife on him.
 3. man has 9 right to demand that his wife shall give as much of her time and attention 10 her home as she does to bridge, and clubs, and causes and that she shall sew as much for him as she does fer the starving Armenians.
 Live within Income
 4. man has a right to demand that his wife shall live within his income instead of trying to keep up with the Jones'. No man. should have to spend his life slaving to pay for tho reckless cXtrayagance of a woman who Is determined to have the things she wants whether she can afford them or not.
 g. A man has a right to demand a reasonable amount of personal liberty. Even husband Is entitled to his evening off week, and to go where he pleases, and come home when he likes, without having to have 8 family ruction about it, or be put through the third degree by his wife. No matter how much a man loves his wife, or how crazy she is about him, there are times when he needs masculine companion ship. and diversion, and to go to some place where he isn't tagged by his women kind.
 Also g man has right to eat what he likes instead of what his wife H. fa ,tri,, f.# t,,@ T of following her taste: and to go to his own church instead of his wife's church, and have his hair cut &C., cording to his own idea of manly beauty.
 Keep old Friends
 C. A man has a right to retain his old friends after he is married, and to follow his old habits. so long as they do not interfere with his domestic duties. He has likewise a right to invite people to the house that his money sustains, and to de- mand that his family shall have an occasional inning at the best bed- room, instead of it being the per- petual camping ground of his wife's family and friends.
 '. A man has a right to at least enc small room, and one closet in the home, that shall be his very own, and in which he can keep his things as he likes them. This room shall be furnished according to his own taste, and in it he shall have the privilege of indulging in his hobbies.
 Of course, not many married men will ever achieve these rights, and those that dc enjoy them will never get them by law. The will get them by joliying their wives into giving them their rights as privileges.

HOME Homel Just four letters Resonant and sweet, But the halo that glows over each
 letter there. Conjures memories as sacred as
 heaven. And no man that breathes knows it's
 meaning In full Until he has one of his own; There happiness lives. There sorrow is born, There heartaches and heartbreaks
 are mended, There love builds it's nest And there loved are caressed. And prayers spring aloft from hearts
 that are sore, Of mothers who plead on knees
 pended. The lad and the lass who would build
 a true home Must christen alright. I'll give you the receipe mother gave When l took shy maid to . cottage To call her my own, And to bring true the dreams we's
 been planning And her mothers mother used the same recipe, Which was passed down to her from
 her mother, And each one of them built a homo
 that was true, So 'tis wise not to look for another. First, give and forgive, said mother
 to me, Tn each life there must be forgiving. And if a small mole hill appears in
 your path, Don't make it a mountain, while
 living; Full many a mountain will stand Tn
 your way. You must scale them, each helping
 the other. You have pictured a dreamland in
 her maiden mind. To her you are perfect, don't destroy
 it. Too soon will tho future dissolve her
 mirage. So enjoy it. There'll be hours when you'H walk In
 a bright paradise, There'll come days when you'll DOW
 deep in sorrow, Cling closer, my lad, when pain
 comes to you. Till the dawn of brighter tomor-

 fangs Pale want may stalk you, and trou-
 ble; Just bear and forbear with patience,
 my boy, And the blessings of life will soon
 double. If baby lips grope for her full
 rounded breast, Bless the day they came to your
 keeping: If you live as you'd guide them your
 duty is done, It will walk as you trained 1t while
 creeping. That's the recipe, lad. it's not much,

Three down -trodden married men have filed B petition in the supreme court of New York, asking for a charter establishing a bill of rights for husbands.
 And much good 1t will do them even if they get their Magma Charta, for matrmony is under the jurisdc- tion of no court save Cupids court, and the rights that a husband or wife do not get by subtlety, they cau- not get by process of law.
 You might enjoin a nagglng wom- an from nagglng a million times, and she would still go on nagging You might foreclose your first mortgage on the affections of a flirtatious husband, but you would never get the goods. You might swear out hun dred peace warrants against your husband or wife. and yet have to live in a house that was in a perpetual brawl.
 Law No Good For This
 The long arm of the law is not long enough to reach into the privacy of the home, nor is it powerful enough to protect husband and wife from each other, and whether a married man Is henpecked, or the head of the house, depends upon the kind of 8 woman he married, and his own abilities as diplomat. Also whether woman is treated by her husband as 8 parlor ornament, or n door mat depends upon the kind of Q man she married, and her own finnesse.
 Neither one gets what is due them as a matter of justice, for in mat rimony there is no justice. It is all privilege.
 Nevertheless, both the party of the first part. and the party of the sec ond part, have rights which said party of the second part, and said party of the first part are in honor bound to respect.
 Among the things that a man has right to demand of his wife are :
 1. That she shall go 50-50 with him in the matrimonial partnership She shall be q working partner, will ing to do her share to make the firm a success instead of expecting her husband to bear all of the bur dens, and make all of the sacrifices, and do all of the labor, while she reserves to herself the privilege of wasting the money he earns by his hard toll.
 X Comfortable Home
 2. He has right to demand that lis wife shall do her part in mak- ing q comfortable home. That Is her part of the division of labor, and the woman who doesn't do that is just as much qultter and a stacker as the man is who is too lazy and shiftless to support his family.
 An untidy house. feeding man out of paper bags. and tin cans, and neglecting to put clean towels in the bathroom, ought to be an universal

FIGURES SHOW FARMERS MIXING OWN FERTILIZER

AUBURN, Ala, Dec. 1s.-(speeial.) To an extent that exceeds the ex- pectations of students of the fer tilizer industry in Alabama, farmers are now home mixing their fertiliz- CTS. This the 1922 annual report of F. E. Boyd, agronomist for the exten- sion service will show. It states that 5000 farmers in 1921 home mixed coco tons of fertilizers, but that in 1922 the number of farmers who did home mixing increased to 10000 and the tons mixed increased to 30,o0o or five times that of 1921.
 MT. Boyd's report on fertilizers Is largely taken from the reports of the county agents. who, in cooperation with MT. Boyd, have been urging home mixing and are highly gratified over the results

ORPHANS HOME
BOY WANTED TO
VISIT MOTHER

A youngster who was commtttej
to the Orphans Home last Sunday,
was reported missing wednesday
morning. but a search OF the up
town district produced the lad. and
he was taken 90 the local police sta
ton.
Upon questioning the youngster he
stated that he WIS not from the Or
phAns' homo at all, but that some
man put him on the train at La
Porte with a ticket, and that he had
ridden this far without being put of.
a little closer examination proved
too much for him, and he admitted
that he belonged at the local home
and that he had planned on getting
TO LaPorte II possible. The facts Of
the case were found TO be that he
was committed 20 the local institu-
ton because his parents were both
confined at a LaPorte hospital, IN a
serious condition, and that he and
the other children In the family had
to be sent TO various public Inst1tu-
tons. IN order that they could be
taken care OF.
A teacher from the Orphans
home came after the lad in a short
time. and he was soon comforted for
the time with a hot dinner and the
promise that he would get TO see his
mother soon.
