|conceding that Carpenter by the strict
letter of the rules was entitled to act
as he did, complain hat his conduct
lacked regard for the spirit of the re-
gulations which the Frenchman has
invariably displayed in his previous
fights. While agreeing that he was
rightly proclaimed winner, they pre-
dict that the legitimacy of knock
out during break-away will be long
debated, and that Lewis supporters
are likely to reassert that the blow
was foul, especially as they can ar
que that Lewis was at the moment
listening to the referees warnings.
For the fight as fight, however,
nobody has praise. The Times critic
says the contest was as bad as it
could have been, and must have ended
in disqualification if it had not ended
as it did. The Daily Chronicle ex-
pert describes it as a positive traves-
ty on boying, and says both partici-
pants were equally guilty of illegit-
innate tactics.
The Daily Teiegraph's correspond
emit declares he never wants to see
anything like it again, and says it
offended the seses of every good
sportsman who witnessed it.

Will FRANCE PAY.

Louis p Loucheur. former French
minister of the liberated regions. said
in talk at Lyons that frankly he did
not believe France ever could or ever
would pay a sou of her debt to Amer
lea Since then there has come from
another French official the declara-
tion that his country expects to pay
every dollar she owes Uncle sam. but
VIII do nothing in the matter until she
has been dunned for it.
The French are anxious that the
Russians should pay back the money
France gave to them on their I. o. U.
This French money, given thus to
Russia. was for war purposes. It was
TO build strategic railways and enable
Russia TO hit harder and more quick

France insists on franc for franc from
Russia, and yet France is greatly the

whose sacrifices inconeeivable disaster
might have overtaken the French.

In furtherance Of campaign
against the issuance OF tax-exempt Sc
curities the Detroit Free Press calls
attention to a probate court fight
among the heirs Of James J. Hill and
Mrs. Hill in st. Paul. The row has
been over the appointment Of an ad-
ministrator for Mrs. HilFs estate of
S12.OOO.00O. Louis w. Hill. former
business adviser for Mrs. Hill. testi-
fled that beginning in 1916 and con
tinuing until 1919, he disposed of
heavily taxed securities held by his
principal. substituting therefor tax
free holdings. and that in this way
he increased her annual income from
s3s5,0OO to $7So.0Oe a year; that is.
he doubled net returns. Here is a
concrete example. the Free Press
contends of the working of the tax
exempt bond evil anybody can under
stand at a glance. In a single in
stance. in the case of a personal for
tune, little shrevd readjustment has
withdrawn S365.00O annually from
the reach Of the tax gathexers. But
the money thus lost to the public
treasures. it continues. must be found
somewhere. so the burden is shifted to
business enterprise. to people who are
obliged to work for their living. to the
widow with cottage instead of a
palace Yet, to n dislnterested observ-
er it would appear that those heavily
taxed securities" merely were shifted
TO other hands and in no way escape
the tax gatherer. They must continue
to paw taxes and are no mora = 1,,-
den on the people OF moderate means
than they were before. If the asses
sor could locate these securities in
Mr.. Hilrs hands. he should have no
difficulty in keeping track of them.

| If, in addition to these precautions
she keeps a cIuttered house where
everything is at skies and sevens, and
the meals are ill cooked and always
late, she need not worry about the
danger of having her husband under
| foot all the time. He will beat it
away to some more comfortable spot,
and generally to some woman who
looks more like his ideal lady-love.
1t is likewise easy enough to stuff
love to death, and a great many wives
| do this unwittingly, because they judge
their husbands appetite for affection
by their own. They are Unsuitable in
their demand for love, and they for
get that while it is the bread of life
for a woman, it is only a condiment to
existence for men.
Women value love according to its
quantity. Men value it by its rarity,
A woman wants her husband to tell
her every hour of the day how much
he loves her and how thankful he is
that he married her, and how he could
never love anyone but her, and the
her, the better she loves him. but a
man gets fed up on love. 1t was the
man who had a thousand wives, all
of whom presumably told him contin-
ually how much they cared for him,
who exclaimed in his safety; stay me
for I am SICK OF LOVE"
Therefore if a woman wants to kill
her husbands love, she can find no
more effectual way to do 1T than to
nag him continually with her affec-
tion, to be one of those fool wives who
interrupt a man in business hours to
tell him how they love him, who tag
their husbands and can never be left
behind, from whom their husbands
can never be separated even for sin
gle day. 1t is like being drowned in
molasses, or choked on sugar plums.
To love a man too much is the
surest way of making him hate you.
Nobody ever saw a husband cherish
quicker way for a woman to kill her
husbands affection than for her to
just love him to death.
Strangely enough, the starvation
cure for love is just as effective as
the oveF-feeding cure is. Custom has
ordained that men should hide their
hearts from each other, and be un-
emotional among their fellows No
other man, or how much he loves
him, or how much he appreciates
him, he is dumb about it. Yet men
love to be loved, they love to be pet
done well, and this throws them upon
women for any sustenance to their
souls
What a man really marries for IS
to get some woman TO pet, ana coddle
and praise him, and to whom he can
brag of his achievements.
There are just as many men who
are heart-hungry as women, and it
is no trouble at all to starve to death
the love that is famished for a little
tenderness. a little appreciation, a few
kind words of understanding, of ac-
acknowledgement that ones wife re-
CARDS her husband as something else
besides a meal ticket. 1t is SO easy
to starve love to death that thou
sands of silly selfish women do it
every day of the year. Oh. it's no
trouble TO kill a husbands love. How
to aourish it, and keep it alive, and
make it grow stronger all the time
that's another story. And a harder
one to tell.

JUST FOLKS
THE JOYS OF NOW.
HY EDGAR A. GUEST.

These are the days we shall talk about
In the years to come, my brother,
These are the days We shall single out
As richer than any other;
When time has silvered each wrinkled
brow,
Then we shall treasure the friends of now.
Today we are building our Long Ago,
These are our happy years.
These are the joys We shall yearn to know
And see thru the mist Of tears;
This is the street and these the trees
That shall brighten our glorious memories.
These are the tales we shall gladly tell
To our children's children then.
This Is the youth with its magic spell
We shall live in our dreams again,
And we shall discover what now is hid
The joy there was in the deeds We did.
But now We hastily pass them by
And the laughter is swiftly sped.
We look on joy with a careless eye
While memory waits ahead;
But these shall dawn with a brighter glow
When Time has made them cur Long Ago.
These are the friends we shan leng to see
And these are the days. my brother,
That We shall keep in cur memory
As fairer than any other
So let us treasure them while may.

experience upon which to base their
predictions. In the early days it was
not in sympathy with the narcotic

secured the courts would impose the
minimum penalties. sometimes fine of

to it by heavy penalties, the business

ness went ahead by leaps and bounds.
