dolence to civic duty and Indifference
to public affairs. The apathy of the
citizen has aroused political leaders
in various communities to such an ex-
tent that they have formed "get-out-
the-vote'' clubs in which party work
ers are asked to serve as missionar-
les.
The question of the tariff has crop
ped up again at a time when every
body believed that it was an issue
we'll on it's way outside of politics.
1t is apparent that the present Tariff
Commission will be reorganized be-
cause of the difference of opinion ex-
listing in the Commission. Other
government departments are func-
tioning as usual, being, for the time,
outside the realm of politics. Per-
haps an exception may be made in
the case of the War Department,
which has become involved in, a polit-
ical discussion as to the necessity and
ultimate effects of a National Defense
day. The attitude of Governor Bryan
in condemning the plan of mobiliza-
ton has developed sharp conflicts in
various parts OF the country. IL is
quite natural that there should be
some speculation as to the possible
outcome of Governor Bryan's stand
on the matter. The fact that John
w. Davis, the Presidential candidate
has concurred with some of his run
ning-mate's objections, brings the
subject directly before the voters.
Official Washington is very much
interested in the notification cere-
monies which will be held next week.
The views of Candidate Coolidge and
Candidate Davis on current issues
will then be definitely expressed and
they will present their case to the
country for judgment. Meanwhile, it
is necessary for everybody concerned
to keep the public's attention focused
on their men and methods.

 "Well, it was pink, wasn't it?" de- manded her brother.
 Tt was Minnie who was telling me story about man and the new fash ion," said Loretta. "She has cousin who had just married and is very de- voted to his wife"
 "They begin like that said her brother solemnly. But take my warn- ing, little sister, they soon forget you and you are left alone to weep"
 (Which just goes to show that you aren't up on the fashions, either, /" Loretta. Wives left alone don't pine away any more. They go into the movies. Anyhow, this cousin is de- voted to his wife and they go shopping and everything together.
 "So Saturday afternoon they went shopping and bought their dining room set. The husband paid for it and ar ranged to have the firm keep it for them until the house is ready. Then they decided to go up to the park for brisk walk and the husband discovered that he didn't have enough money left to pay their carefare."

 It'll be a family war if you are go- ing to insinuate too much," Loretta laughed. Anyhow, tennis blazers aren't worn nowadays"
 "Yes, and a whole novel can be spoiled just because a writer called a blouse a tennis blazer" said l4oretta's brother. "So I feel that perhaps it is just as we'll didn't keep up my liter ary work"

"Yes." said Loretta calmly. "The husband paid the fares and they took a long walk through the, park. When they were in the park they went into rest aurant and had dinner, When the check was presented to the husband he asked his wife for her purse and she turned on him with the startling reply that she didn't have it. As result she had to stay in the restaurant and wait while he hunted up man he used to go to school with and get some money. The schoolmate was rather grudging and suspicious, but he got it."
 "Yes," said her brother. But what became of the purse?"
 ''Oh, yes, forgot" Loretta said with a laugh. That was why I started this story to show that men ought to study fashions a little. When they were in the park the husband got tired carrynig the purse and dropped it into what he thought was his wife's pocket without her knowing it."
 Yes. yes v cried her brother.
 "Well," said Loretta, rising to leavo the room, ''he didn't know the styles, so he didn't know that those things that look like pockets are no such thing and whatever you put in them drops to the ground with dull and sickening thud. That's all."

The honeymoon is notoriously time of strife and pickering. The average married couple look back upon their first year of married life with borrow and wonder how they ever lived through it. It was the season of torment because the bride was trying to monopolize her husbands every thought and interest, and he was fighting for his personal liberty.
 Fol tunately, tor most couples, before the battle ends in the divorce court a baby comes gong to dis tract the woman's attention from the man. But before she has cut her wisdom teeth on her wedding ring and found out that no human being can be a1;-in-all to any other human being. the hearthstone is strewn with shattered Illusions and love has got some body blows from which it never fully recovers.

If women would only bear this in mind, and remember that men are far more 1eticent about discuss ing their emotions than women, and if they would begin their mar ried lives by giving their husbands privacy of thought and personal freedom; if they would make them selves the dessert of life instead of the corned beef and cabbage they would save themselves many tears and hold their men to the end.
