THE vail OF every discomfort

ME dA VA SNSty
wife Is: My husband doesn't
understand me" The alibi Of
L every wandering husband is:
My wife doesn't understand me- 1t
IS true in both cases. No husband
ever has the slightest idea of why his
wife does the things she does the way
she does them. No wife knows why
her husband acts the way he does.
1t is impossible that two people Of diff
ferent sexes, with different inherit
ances, brought up in different en-
vironments, with different habits and
modes Of thoughts and purposes, can
ever see eye to eye. or realize the poet S
dream OF two souls with but single
thought.
They are bound to have their indi-
vidual points of view, and to be mott
waited by their own aspirations and
desires, and that is what makes the
matrimonial game so interesting. but
one In which husbands and wives so
often play at cross purposes.
No woman. for instance, can under
stand what it is in the marriage cere-
mony that turns romantic lover into
a prosaic meal ticket. She can't
understand why, before marriage, he
spent hours upon hours telling her
how beautiful and wonderful she was
and how different from all other
women. Then after marriage he never
notices her looks, unless 1t Is to tell her
she Is getting fat.
CHE can't understand why when he
married to get home, he is not
willing to stay in it; nor why he sets
other peoples tables IN roar, but Is
the great silencer at his own. She
can't understand why, before mar
riage, he used to remember every ami
versary and her taste in food and
books and amusements, but after mar
riage he has to be reminded of her
birthday and Christmas, and tells her
to 60 down town and get something
for herself and charge it; that he
doesn't know what she wants.
She can't understand why man
doesn't know that financial independ-
ence means as much to a woman's
self-respect as it does to q mans, and
that 1t humiliates her to beg for every
nickel just as much as it would him.
She can't understand why a man Is
willing to trust his wife with his name,
but isn't willing to trust her with q
few dollars.
A woman can't understand why men
are so easily fooled by women, and
why they can't see through the arts
and wiles Of feminine gold-diggers
that are as transparent as glass to
another woman. She can't understand
why q man will fall for a hard-luck
story. If told by a good-looker, that
wouldn't deceive q girl baby She
can't understand why men always
think that q woman Is innocent, no
matter what crime she commits, If
she has golden hair and blue eyes.
A woman can't understand why, If
her husband loves her, as he says he
does, he should philander with other
women. She never understands why
men never grow up but stay little
boys to the end of their lives, and
why every now and then they are
bound to play truant. She never
understands why clever men 80 often
marry morons: nor why husbands
make 70 little effort to get along with
taetr wives Of sven to try to UNDER
sand them.

Take up dahlias as soon as
frost kills the tops, cut stalks
down to foot from bulbs, place
bulbs in sun to dry, then put in

where they will not freeze.

WHAT GOES UP, ETC.

Just about eight years ago the Stock
Market reached the peak of the boom
which began a slow advance in 1920.
Scarcely more than month elapsed
market crash in history. From a total
valuation of 80 billion dollars on Septem-
Der /, 1929, the aggregate market value
of stocks on the New York Exchange drop
ped to Is billion dollars in less than three
years This was loss of IA billion dol
lars. AS September, 1887 began, the total
valuation had moved VI. to Sc billion dol
lars, or an increase of more than 40, billion
dollars since July l, 1882.
Whereas, a 2,500,0 00-share-day is
considered heavy trading in the market,
there were days in September, 1929, when
the volume exceeded five million shares.
By October "a, 1929, with the break we'll
underway, IL million shares were sold and
on October 20, some 16 million shares
changed hands
We call attention to these figures to
emphasize two points. In the first place,
the decline in value was entirely unjusti-
fled by any intrinsic loss in the value of
the companies represented in the shares
sold. In the second place, the great in
crease which has occurred in the last few
years demonstrates that the fear which
led investors to throw their shares on the
market was entirely unjustified.
There are some of our readers to
whom these figures may point a lesson
In whatever ways one may invest money,
it is we'll to secure basically sound values
rather than gamble upon a speculative re-
sale proposal. In other words if one must
buy stocks, make purchase at price
which will afford reasonable return on
the investment rather than buy some fast
moving shares, whose price is out of pro-
portion to earnings in the hope of spec
ulative gain in resale.

OPPORTUNITY FOR THE BAR

A committee of the American Bar AS
ISOLATION has sharply rebuked vaudeville
appearances by jurors and other trends
tending to transform trials into public
spectacles. The report of the committee
will be considered at the Convention of the
Association to be held this week.
Among other things, the committee
condemned public discussion of trials by
witnesses in speeches, magazines, articles
or newspaper interviews, broadcasting of
arguments and giving out of argumentative
press bulletins by lawyers and public
criticism of the Court or jury by lawyers
during trial.
We have no way of knowing what the
American Bar Association will do about
the report. AS matter of fact, there is
not much that it can do in regard to some
of the trends which are Objectionable but
there is a field in which the Association
should be able to render effective service.
AS general idea of what we have IN
mind, we call attention to the fact that, in
the conduct of trials, the lawyers of the
nation are almost without restrictions of
any kind. In the strategy of a case, in the
batting of witnesses, in the use of cheap
cIaptrap, intolerance and partisan appeal,
and in the age-old practice of working
up case, lawyers of certain type en-
JOY a field day at the expense of justice.
The American Bar Association might rem
der a distinct public service by attempting
some reform of the admitted evils which
now tend, at times, to disgrace the Courts
of the land

laws that now exist, the President
could institute a system of bimetal-

would increase her purchases of our

fact no measurable public benefits
have resulted from the passage of that

With respect to the second Town
send Resolution, it must suffice to say
that there are no valid reasons why
the President should have the power
to juggle the weight of our silver
coins, or to launch a system of free
coinage of silver, or to institute an
unavoidable bimetallic currency sys-
tenn. Regardless of the fact that such
steps doubtless would be extremely
unwiSe, it should be clear that none
of them should be taken without care

Congress. The exercise of such power
should not be left to the possible
caprice or mistaken judgment of any
President.

third Resolution IS. Res. 1861, intro

given to this but it will probably at
tract much attention when Congress
reconvenes. According to the evil
dence thus far made available, the
President was used" by an inside
ring of silver spectators who per-
suaded him to support and sign vari-
Gus silver measures which increased
the value of the silver that these in
