Why In it that tho tnited Stales lead
tlie world in tho niinibrr of Its divorces?
In this country every man Is his own
providence and calls himself to whatever
class he has Iho am
bition to enter. This
makes for Individual
advancement, hut it
also makes for dis
content. The man who is a
clerk, for Instance,
and who never ex
pects to be anything
more than a clerk,
who never dreams
of doing anything
but dressing like a
clerk, and living like
a clerk, has u n -doubtcdly
fewer wr
rles and heart burn
ings and envying
and is enabled to
take life easier than
the man who Is bent
on making his clerkship a stepping
stone to a partnership and a proprietor
ship, and eventually, If he is lucky, a
millionaire fchlp.
Also the man whose lot Is fixed In life
finds It a comparatively simple matter
to secure domestic happiness. He simply
picks out a wife to suit his fortune, and
as his fortune does not vary she con
tinues to fill the conjugal bill, so to
speak.
The American, on the other hand, runs
a bin risk In picking out his wife, since
he doesn't in the least know what he is
going to be hlmcclf nor the kind of a wife
lie is going to require. As a matter of
fact, most successful Americans do re
quire aeveral different types of wives In
the course of their careers, and It is the
Inability of moat women to do this light
ning change act and be a cook and seam
itreas to a man while ho is making his
fortune -and a parlor ornament after he
lias made It, that leads to so much di
vorce in this country.
There is nothing more tragic than the
fact that most of our great men who
arrive, arrive alone. The woman they
married in their youth, who tolled for
them and slaved and sacrificed for them,
have been left hopelesslv behind. If the
mnn is of noble and chlcalrous nature
gratitude and loyalty may still bind him
to the wire he haa outgrown. If he la

.'amiliar spectacle of the swapping of old

enough sense to try to protect themselves
aeainst such catastrophes happening to
them. Yet only the few wise ones do.

rouse some ambition in bis wife. He said:
"I am determined to succeed In life,
and to make something of myself. I am
already making rapid strides in my busi
ness, and I upend every moment that I
can reading and trying to Improve my
self, and making up for the defects of
my education. 1 seek the society of re
tired and intelligent people, and I watch
their manners and conversation In order
that I may Improve my own.
"Hut my wife will not help me. T give
her plenty of money and urge her to
dress well, but she always looks sloppy
and untidy. ,he will not even keep my
children well lressed. so that they mv
look like the other children with whom
they associate. She cares only for the
society of Ignorant people whom she has
to make no effort to please, and refuses
to make any attempt to cultivate the
friendship of educated people.
"1 have tried to get her to study, and
to read, end to belong to women's clubs,
but she re fuses, and says what's the use
In our worrying ourselves about trying
to rise In the world when we could be
so comfortable as we are. I am going
on, anil she will not keep up with me.
What can 1 do to make her keep step
with me?"
There's very little that one can do to
rouse ambition in a laly and shiftlesi
woman unless one can, In the slang
phrase of the day, "throw a scare Into
her," as a young man of my acquaint
ance did, by frankly telling his wife that
unless she expected to lose him s'.ie had
to keep up with him, and that there were
too many Intelligent and Interesting
women In the world for a man not to
be bored by the society of a dull and
stupid wife.
Of course It requires some effort ami
seme labor for the woman who Is tied
down by domestic affairs and by little
children to keep pace with the outside
world, but there's nothing worth while
ever achieved w.ithput fight and struggle.
The man who climbs must use his Muscle
also. He doesn't reach the top by taking
the line of least resistance.
And whether she likes it or not, whether
she wants to da it or not, the wile of
the ambitious man has no choice In the
matter. She has simply got to keep up
with him, or be left behind, and thrown
into the discard. She has got to go the
pace with him. There Is no other way
She must either keep up with the pro
cession or else be left behind.
It is the custom to always pity the poor
neglected wife whose husband has gone
By. far beyond her in mental and spiritual
progress that they are no longer even in
telephoning distance of each other, but
we may well reserve some of our sym
pathy for the man whose wife was so
Inert and laiy and shiftless of mind and
body that she would not try to keep up
with him. and so left him to go his way
lonely and companionless through life.

He expected to see them coming through ;
the open door of an elevator, the girl
whom he loved above everything In the
world and tlio scoundrel whom he in
tended to strangle to death.
June meantime had hailed a taxi. She
saw standing in front of the door the
luxurious limousine of Gilbert Wye ami
understood why Mrs. Villard had dis
missed her own csr.
"So Mr. Blye was to lsV.e us home!"
she hotly charged.
"Don't, child!" begfced Mrs. Villard, be
ginning to be as much distracted as June.
"lrt'a go home."
And, utepplng In the tsxl with June, she
gave a Ehs.rp direction to the driver.
"Don't you dare follow!" she ordered
Blye and bis companions.
The tormentors laughed and walked
forward to Blye's car.
I'ptown on busy Broadway sped June'
and Mis. Villard, and by the time they
had reached Columbus circle June's sus
picions of Mrs Villard were allayed.
Through beautiful Central park with Its
branches Interlaced against the wintry
I sky, and now June was beginning to feel
I a little more, kindly toward the vivacious
! brunette, Tommy Thomas.
I On Spuylen Duyvel parkway a luxurious
limousine had halted, and es the taxi
passed it rolled out and followed. In it
sat June's determined pursuers, and on
the dark, hondsome face of OTTtiert Blye
was auiin. tbat suave smile. June turned
chill with nervous apprehension.
Gilbert Blye was enjoying that chase
Immensely, and he watched the weav
ing, swaying taxi with always that suave
smile.
Suddenly Blye leaned forward with an
oath, and there was a shriek from the
vivacious brunette. Something seemed
to be wrong with the steering wheel of
the taxi, for. aa it went up the hill ahead
of them, it wabbled to and fro uncer
tainly, dangerously near the crumbling
bank which was protected by a flimsy
rail, and there was a curve ahead!
There was a cry of horror from them
all as the taxi at the curve ran up the
embankment, paused at the brink for a
moment and then with Its precious bur
n inside crushed through the rail sml
piuiigr-d down the hill.'

The Kingdom of Dust
By KLHtCKT HUBBARD
In our Pullman, the other day, was a
colored brother doing extra, dead-heading
home. He was ashy-yellow In hue, sad
and ultramarine In spirit. Immersed in
gloom.
I sought to disentangle-
him from bl.i
melancholy.
"l"s Is dyln' off
faft," he remarked.
And then he ex
plained that he had
been up to St. Taul
to attend the fu
neral of his partner,
who had died of
tuberculosis.
"It's the dust In
these yere kysrs,"
be Bald.
And I said noth
ing, because there
was nothing to say.
Dust Is not only
the bane of the pal
ace car, hut it Is the
bane of palace, cottage
ind tenement
alike.
To relieve the bouse of dust Is to add
to the length of days of its occupants.
I have been reading a remarkable little
hook entitled, "The Kingdom of Dust,"
by Dr. J. Uordon Ogden, an eminent
professor of physics and chemistry.
The Kingdom of Dust is the Kingdom
of Death.
In ibis book Dr. Ogden says, "Dust Is
the right hand of death."
Dr. Ogden then goes on to say:
"More than half of sll deaths in the
world, from the equator to the poles, are
due to the distribution and breathing in
of dUht."
' Dust tarries with It the germs of dis
solution, bacteria.
Bacteria exists in all dust where human
beings live, eat, sleep, move, work.
Wherever we go, we are throwing off
particles of animal matter.
This dead animal matter contains bac
teria. Bacteria are a form of vegetation, so
small, so minute, that aO,uu of these
rerms msy sit on the edge -f a knife
blade along a line one inch In length.
Home are visible under the microscope.
Others are so minute that the highest
poer of the micro ope falls to find
them. We only know that they exist by
watching their growth. They come out
of the unseen and evolve until the micro
scope can detect them.
Bacteria are divided Into three classes:
The spherical, or cocci: the rod-shaped,
or baccllli, and the spiral.
These grow by fission. That Is, thsy
divide, and a piece so samll that It can
not be seen by the microscope sometimes
breaks off and ran be caught by the
scientist on a "Petri plate" or culture
bed. an devolved.
Bacteria are mostly of a septic: order,
and these are the cause of various dis
eases. The beat example of septic dis
eases are pneumonls, tuberculosis and
sucii contsglous dwesses as diphtheria,
scarlet fever, meaales.
Dr. Ogrien maintains that the diseases
caused by bacteria aie avoidable. The

Dust Is everywhere, but the worst kind
of dust Is that which la confined within
the four walls of a room. This dust Is
always germ-laden, because It Is Infested
with effete matter thrown off by human
bodies.
In the Boston City hospital, where tho
most rigid possible sanitary conditions
prevail, living bacteria are found to he
1,3M) to the cubic foot of air.
In Central Park, New York, bacteria
are found to the extent of l.DoO every
cublo foot.
These conditions are not especially un
favorable to life. But when you get up
to 10,000 living germs to the cubic foot
you are getting Into danger, and this
often happens In homes that are not
properly swept and cleansed.
The average house, where the rooms
are only fairly ventilated and the house
keeping is Indifferent, may have from
10.000 to 16,000 bacteria to the cubic foot.
If we would be well, we must devise a
plan by which the bacteria are not aim-
ply scattered through the room by sweep
In gand dusting, but by which they are
picked up effectively, captured and destroyed.

Is Motherhood a Profession?
By ItEV. MABEL M. IRWIN.
"No," I think I hear some fme say,
"but it should lie." But should It? In
deed, can It be?
One might as well talk of the fruiting
apple tree on the hillside as a "profes
sional apple-bearer" as to spesk of hu
man child-bearing as a profession rather
than a thing of nature. Professional
mothering, however, la allowable even
necessary If we would stop the "slaugh-
ter of the Innocents," which permits I
every Z days 200.0(10 children under s
years of age to die, largely of preventable j
diseases.
Motherhood and mothercraft are two
different things, and should never be con
fused In the thinking. Motherhood . and
all the conditions that antedate It belong
to eugenlea and heredity; mothercraft
professional mothering, or what you will
belong to euthenlcs, or the problem of
environment.
A professional mother msy or may not
have ever borne children she msy. In
deed, belong to the type thst Isj born a
mother, and must needs brood and watch
over all weak and helpless things, whether
she brar children of her own or not.

If your Infatuation surmounts distance

that will prove It worth while. Don't

Be sure you are not coy and affection

thst this young man who is young
enough to be your son will persist In
his foo'ish Infatuation for you. Just
laugh him out of it. Be as motherly and

not made, and no amount of knowledge
and training can ever make a true
mother, no matter how many children
Bhe may bear, out of a woman who has
not wlthing herself the Instinct or mother
hood. But since the little ones come to those
who have not divined the great privilege
accorded them to mother the world. It Is
necessary for this sense to be cultivated
In them. To this end I know of no better
way than the care and bringing up of
children be dignified as a profession, and
that woman, who bears the burden of
bringing to birth the life of the world,
should thus be made to realise the dignity
of her work.
It Is thought by some that if the state
would regard the hearing of Its ritlxens
aa a profession, and hold Itself responsi
ble for payment te the mothers thus en
gaged, It would not be Just, but would
solve once for all the problem of race
suicide, or child limitation. They argue
that for economic reasons families are
limited, and that parents are justified in
using any means tor this purpose; that If
the state would help In the support of the
children it need no longer fear decrease
of the nation's birth rate.
But this, again, seems to us a short
sighted vision. It Is sgaln to confuse
nature with nurture. It Is natural if
neither disease nor artificial means In
terferefor the married mother to bear
children; this, Indeed, Is the rstaeon d'etre
of marriage, from the point of view of
society. Why. then, let us ask. Is It
necessary or desirable to offer as an In
ducement to mothers the support of the
state?
Where doe the father come In? Has
he no right to help decide, with the
mother, when and how many children she
Is willing to bear? Has he no responsi
bility to nurture the children that come
to them when thua agreed? How about
professional fathering fatherrraft as well
ss mothercraft?
No man should ask of the woman whom
be has sworn to love and protect that
she bear more children than they, by
their Joint efforts, can support. No hus
bsnd should ask of his wife to take other
means t i limit the number of children
than that of their mutual and moral self-
control.
Tho children burn of parents thus un
derstanding marriage might be fewer
than those born In the old, Irresponsible
end undcslred wsy. but they would come
to the world better endowed and less
likely subject to an early death.
With parenthood thus regarded, a na
tion need have no fear that It would
grow weaker and less able to hold Its
own among the nations of the world.
Mothers themselves would regard the
coming of the little, ones aa a blessing,
In which the father would have hla share.
Not only would the young girl look well
to the character of the man she chose to
marry and make the father of her chil
dren, but the young mother would lie
eager to learn el! the means and meth
ods to keep her children safe and well,
si rung and vigorous, till to msn and
woman grown.
To this end professional mothering
and fathering would tome to be re
garded as. among all professions, the
most highly honored.
