friends in Wolf Point where they
resided several years while Mr..
Koch was manager of the Grogan-
Robinson lumber yard, on the site

Everest. Kilimanjaro, highest
peak of Africa, and Mount Nc
kinley, highest peak of North
America, would rank as minor
peaks in the Sikkim Himalayas,
and even Accncagua, the mon
arch OF the Andes, rises only to
the altitude of the famous
North Col on Everest.
The magnitude of the adven-
ture of assaulting the Hima-
layas is scarcely realized by the
great public of the world. The
Himalayas, meaning the "abode
of snow" constitute a titanic
mountain range. stretching for
1000 miles across Asia. This
vast system comprises, as it's
greatest triumphs, IS peaks,
each more than $4,000 feet in
height.
Yet not a single one has
been "subdued by any man who
has come back to tell the
story" Nor is it known that
any man ever reached the sum-
NIT OF a single one of these
towering titanS.
In tackling one of the great
peaks the most careful and
scientific preparation has to be
made. One must be prepared to
encounter polar conditions"
both in the matter of ice and
snow and in terrific storms and

What are the rights of a
wife?
Do those rights continue
after the love, which made
here a wife, has passed? Has
a man a right to his freedom
when his heart has turned
from his wife? Should the
wife then give him quit
claim deed, wish MIN God
speed and let him go to the
other woman? Or should she
hold him bound, whether he
likes it or not?
Strange questionS-but they
are abroad these days. And
Mrs. L. II. L. is all for holding
'em regardless.
Dear Miss Robinson:
Recently you quoted the
case of a husband who no
longer loved his wife and
wished to marry another
woman. The wife refused to
give him a divorce. She said
he had promised to stay with
her until death did them part
and she was going to hold him
to that promise, since she loved
him even If he didn't love her.
You asked for comments. Here
are mine:
Marriage is not exclusively a
love relation. 1t has a civic
and social status. And it is a
financial partnership. Why
should a woman who has
worked to establish a definite
place in life for herself
abandon that place to satisfy
some other persons romantic
demands? Why glOrify a man
who holds on to his ideals and
rights and responsibilities in
the face of opposition and
temptation, and denOunce the
woman who does the same
thing? MRS. L. H. L."
Holding on to ideals. rights
and responsibilities" is one
thing, sister. Holding on to
rebellious spirit is quite an
other.
You have a right to demand
your equity in the joint prop
erty. That is law and good
business. You may also, if
such be your religion, refuse to
acknowledge the fact of divorce
in your secret heart and insist
upon considering yourself a
wife, even though your hus-
band has gone to another. But

Mountain Climbing
BIZ Archibald Henderson

A GREAT TO DO is made
over reaching North or South
Pole, whether by foot, dirigible
or airplane. Yet there are many
prizes awaiting the courag eous
and hardy mountain climber. A
technic of great efficiency has
been developed for Alpine
climbing. Y @..
Yet few realize what a COM
paratively mild feat is that of
scaling Alpine PEAKS when set
over against the truly herculean
feat of conquering the mighty
ice-clad peaks of the HimalayaS.
!, Mt. Everest is known to be
the highest peak in the world.
But Kanchenjunga. the second
highest peak, is lower than
MT. Everest by less than 1000
feet. From an old Indian sur
vey, this mighty elevation was
calculated to be 2s,146 feet
above sea level. But a recalcu.
lation, made in 1905. showed its
altitude to be even greater
namely, 2S,225 feet.
This last figure, based on the
''most accurate observations"
shows that Kanchenjunga is
only 916 feet lower than the
crest of Everest itself.

Husbands are not domestic
goods and chattels-even though
some of 'em bear all the ear
marks. They are human beings
with an ''inalienable right to
liberty and the pursuit Of hap
pineSs." A man may be an in
crate and a fool If he seeks his
happiness outside his home, but
it cannot be held against him
as a crime. For love cannot be
forced. Like the wind, it
bIoweth where it listeth. And
what Joy is there in holding a
heart from which love has
fled?
Indeed, it seems as indecent
to me to hold a person in un,
willing wedlock as to force him
into it. But, unfortunately, our
laws do not agree. Although
slavery was abolished so years
ago, it is still legally possible
for a wife to hold a man in
hateful bonCage for life.

SECRETS OF
HEALTH
BY DR.. Louis E. Bisch-

Writer'S cramp is not an un-
common condition. 1t is more
prevalent among men than
women and seldom is it en-
countered past middle life.
Usually the symptoms do
not appear suddenly. Grad
ually a certain degree of dis
comfort is experienced when
using the pen or pencil. Later
on definite weakness of the
hand, also cramps and twitch-
ings Of the muscles may occur.
There may even be numbness,
making the patient think that
his hand is paralyzed.
AS the condition becomes
more and more marked it is
found that rest of the hand mus
cleS, even for days at a time,
does not prevent the return of
the symptoms when writing is
again attempted.
Sometimes such repeated trials
causes intense pain in the hand
with q SpaSm of the muscles
involved. Indeed. there are
cases which begin in writing
but which later on suffer spaSm,
pain and tremor when the
hand or hands are used in
other ways such as playing the
piano. where dexterity of the
fingers Is necessary.
Many other occupations show
symptoms like writer's cramp.
Piano players. seamstresses,
shoemakers and telegraphers
may be attacked.
The condition is also found
among watchmakerS. engraverS,
lithographerS, painters, Sculp-
tors, compositors, cigar and
cigarette makers, postoffice Of
ficialS who sort the mail, ma
sons and a host of others who
use the finer muscles, Of the
hands in their work.
Writer'S cramp or any Of its
sister conditions should not be
looked up as an organic affec-
ton of the nerves or muscles,
or bones or joints of the hand.
lOn the contrary, the trouble
is purely functional, It has to
n do with the mind!

children can become thoughtful

SelfishneSS.
But if you are an adult your
sense of fair play should be
strong enough to keep you from
asking more than your due.
Often the SelfiShness of one
member of a family causes more
sorrow than everything else put
together.
If you are the right sort you
will want the members of your

he or she is entitled to.

than you are willing to give to

SelfishnesS

SelfishneSS
Are you dmanding more than
your share of the family in
come?
Do you insist upon having
things and doing certain things
which mean increased expenses
so far as the other members
are concerned?
Then you are pretty selfish
and don't show much consider
alton.
But do you create so much
disturbance when your desires
are not met that the family ac-
cord you the extras rather than
fight you?
If so, this is spirit of which
you should be ashamed.
You may be a child to whom
self-interest is more important
than anything else. If SO, you
