comforting with U. S. Pawkett, traf-

orable action of that body on his
request for postponement.

TWO LEGISLATURES
CONTINUE AT WORK
In MEXICAN STATE
Pitched Battle Fails to
Keep Two Factions
From Meeting.
By j. w. FALXELLA.


Laredo, Tex, Sept. 19.-The state
of Nuevo Leon, Mexico, today has two
legislatures running at top speed.
One of them is functioning comfort
ably in the legislative halls of the
capitol at Monterey.
The other is installed on the broad
porticos of the state house.
There has been as usual, much
shooting, but to date only one fatality
The trouble started just a week ago
when the rival bodies converged OF:
Monterey to take over the affairs of
state.
The faction favoring Alfredo Perez
for governor got to work first and
established itself in the legislative
hall.
That favoring Gen. Porfirio Con.
tales set up for business in the Hotel
Bridges.
Both bodies advised Mexico City
that they were ready for business.
Mexico City replied that the 'duls
installed" legislature had to met III
the capitol.
So the Gonzalistas hot-footed it over
to the capitol-only to find that The
Perez clan had barred the state house
doors.
Mexico City hastily ordered thu
1000 federal troops on duty in Mon
terey to keep order.
They did. for the time being. and the
Perez legislature had to content it
self with quarters on the oortico.
On Saturday trouble broke out.
1t being independence day, the Perez
body decided to hold patriotic exer
cises. Perez's orator was in the midst
of his eloquence when the Gonzalistas
decided to freeze them out.
Somebody shipped few wires and
the orator found himself talking III
a dark legislative chamber.
Somebody else cut some more wires

Many are called, but few chosel
Matt. 22:14.
Some men are troubled by the
doctrine of election, or predes-
tination, or REORGANIZATION, or
whatever you prefer to call it.
They quote this word of
Christ, and then say to them
selves:
eff I am chosen I shall be GER
tain to come, but if [ am not
chosen there is no use in COM
ing, therefore the only thing to
do is to wait and see"
This way of taking the doe
trine of election makes God a
liar.
When Christ says, Come unto
Me all ye that labor" He means
it.
Men do not act in this silly
way about anything else in life
except religion.
They do not say, IF I am to
be married, l shall be married;
if [ am to be well, I shall be
well; if l am to go to New York,
[ shall inevitably find myself
there
If these are things that they
want, they. do something to at.
tain them. They get busy about
them.
Does not this apply to re-
Hgion?
God has chosen all who repent
and believe and try to be good.
Fulfill the conditions and you
are sure Of the choice.
Read the words, Many are
called, but few chosen" in the
light of the parable from which
they are taken.
There were hundreds Of guests
at the Marriage Feast, but only
one was cast out.
And that was because he would
not put on the wedding garment

Perhaps your ideal was the cave
man. Every woman dreams Of mar
rying a strong. masterful man who
will be hard and cold to all the bal
ance of the world, but wax in her
hand Every woman dreams OF be
ing wooed by a. human cyclone, and
being dragged off to his 2x4 fur
nished flat by the hair of her head.
And when matrimony gets dull,
and flat, and common placed, and
she is so bored that she is about to
yawn her head off, she looks at the
meek little man that turns his pay
envelope over to her without opening
it, and wipes his feet on the mat
before he dares enter his own door,
and she thinks how many more
thrills there would be in matrimony
if only she had married her ideal he
man instead of the weak sister she
did
Certainly there would have been
more thrills in it If she had gotten
her ideal caVeman-also more black
eyes, and barrels more of teats.
For there isn't any such animal as
the man who is a raging n1n abroad
and a lion at home. It's the other
way about. Nor is any wife, IN
these days, going to stand for a
master as long as the trains are still
running to Reno.
Cavemen and sheiks are fine in
novels and moving pictures but for
real, comfortable, everyday living,
there is nothing like a good. thor
oughly domesticated housebroken
husband.
Perhaps your ideal was a man Of
the artistic temperament. A poet
and a dreamer. A man whose soul
is set on the higher things of life.
A man who would make love to you
iii beautiful language, and discourse
to you by the hour about souls. A
man who would help you to psyche
analyze yourself, and find out why
you thought what you thought you
thought, and feel the way you be
lieVe YOU feel.
A man who would wander away
into the woods with you on beauti-
full spring days, and lie at your feet
and tell you that your eyes were Just
the color of blue-bells, AID who
would sit entranced by the fire on
winter nights while you play ed him
stormy Russian music. How differ
ent your ideal is. from the business
man to whom you are married VINO
doesn't know a thing about poetry,
but is a wizard in the hardware
trade; who thinks you need dose
of liver medicine when you have
vague warnings in the sp ing. and
who thinks that the way to show
a, woman tina, you love her is to
make life soft for her, instead o.
pallavering over her.
Defect, sister, that the wives of
poets and dreamers mostly live on
shabby back streets and have to
fight it out with the butcher, and
that, after all there are f-w better
ways of lovemaking than 10 say it
with checks. You may pine little
for romance as you roll around in
your limousine, but you'd long lot
more for a limousine if you had to
hoof it with romance.
After all, much as we complain of
our husbands and wives. if they
were all put on the the bargain
counter and we had a second chance,
don't you suppose that mss of us
would find ourselves going back
home with the same old bunch of
goods?
