There is No Doubt that the Great Cause Which Lies Back

a Kind Wisdom and There Can Be No Doubt
that When We Insist on Pushing that

Irs " i-a
By ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
A studious and brilliant woman made
a Careful study of astrology. She be

possible, by a pain
staking of fort, In
volving much time
and mental applica
tion. o give a very
complete - outline of
the character, sit

person's life. Be

the ,haa made such
a calculation re-'
gardlng' her own
life and that of her
husband, arid -'aha
finds every serious
and Important sjrent In the past of both
indicated in tho horoscope;' and naturally
she feels that such events and happenings
aii' the future show are liable to come
true.
And now this lady says:
"I would give all I possess If I had not
pried Into my future. It has made me
very, despondent. Certain sorrows which
are In store for me were far better hld-
otn uemna me veil ok .me years.
There is no doubt that the (Great Cause
which lies baak of all things flung a veil
across the face of the future with a kind
wisdom, knowing It was better for each
one. of us to wait and learn what life
held for us, hour by hour and day by
day, Instead of having It revealed years
In advance.
And there Is no doubt that when we
Insist upon pushing aside that veil we
break a divine law; and that we must
uffer In consequence. This brilliant wo
man's peaceful and prosperous present Is
marred by the predictions which she
finds of death and sorrow In the future.

sweeter and happier now, and when death
and sorrow came the strength would have
been given her to meet the experiences.
Meantime this woman believes that we
are. great enough to change and over
come' many things indicated by our horo
scopes; to live so wisely and prudently
that Indications of invaWsm may be
changed to good, if not robust health,
and that prospective poverty may be
turned into prosperity.. if not wealth.
It Is her belief that parents and teach
ers who, are willing to give the tiros and
attention to the matter could so direct
and guide the life of a child whose horo
scope Indicated sickness, poverty and
crime, that all of these misfortunes could
be averted, ,'.',.
She explains -her idea in this manner:
At the time sickness Is indicated In the
horoscope there would doubtless be an In
disposition, but right bringing up, on sane
wholesome lines, would rob it of any
serious aspect; Just as the right princi
ples drilled Into the child's mind before
Its fourteenth year, and a careful direc
tion of Its life afterward, would enable
It to overcome poverty and rime; while
there would be temptations sod condi
tions threatening such dangers at the
period marked. In the horoscope.
Here Is . an Illustration: A woman re
fused to take a Journey on a certain day
tJe'c.ause her' horoscope warned her of an
accident. .
But before night she slipped on her
polished floor and sprained her ankle.
Had she taken the Journey, she believes,
more serious- disaster would have be
fallen her.
The same lady, inclined to extrava
gance, saved money against a time when
financial trouble' was prophesied, and
when her bank failed was able to tide
over the difficulty without the poverty
predicted.
Yet all of these rules 'hold good In life
without the aid of the horoscope.
Children carefully and scientifically
reared, with the Idea of making every
brain cell develop along moral and whole
some systems of thinking, cannot fall
to grow Into moral and wholesome men
and women.
People who curb extravagant tenden
cles and live within their means, and
keep a balance ahead, are able to meet
money disasters without being reduced
to penury, and men and women . who
study the laws of health and observe
the rules of right breathing, thinking
bathing and eating and drinking, can
successfully defy the maladies which
wrong methods of life have created.
No one needs to frighten himself with
the bugaboo of a horoscope In order
to find out these Immortal facts.
Take care of today and let God take
care of your tomorrows.
And remember you are greater than
your horoscope, for you are a . reflec
tion of the whore universe. Copyright.

The Predominance of the Practical
Py THE GENTLEWOMAN. -The
world touay' Is -full of a number
of things,'' as R, L. Stevenson phrased
it, that people hsve but little time for
the cultivation of the finer feelings and
emotions. Ideals are somewhat at a dis
count, and a certain materialistic common-sense
permeates everything. Senti
mentality has also disappeared, but no
one would shed a tear over its passing.
Like a thin veil It served to obsoure
the truth, and prevented people from
seeing things as they were. But senti
ment and feeling are different. They pro
ceed from the soul.
Bo much regard Is psld to the mind and
body hoadaya that the soul Is prac.
tically forgotten. The majority of modern
writers simply Ignore ;u existence. This
may account for the "et. rnal tedlousnesa"
Of so many present day uovcls. and no
doubt also for the commonplace standard
adopted by so many of their readers.
With the decline of sentiment has come
a decline in sympathy. This is a healthy
e. but a hard one. On the whole an
overplus of sympathy is weakening to
the character. Those from whom it Is
withheld . are more likely to . grow in
strength and self-reliance than those on
whom It is bestowed. The feeling that
peoplo are torry for us tends to make us
sorry for ourselves, while the conscious
ness thai nobody cares Is apt to roube
the1 righting instinct -and to develop our
powers of endurance and self-control.
The decline in the softer virtues must,
In some measure, be laid to the change
Of women. It is not entirely their fault,
however. Circumstances have driven them
ut Into the world of fighters and Jost-
lers. What wonder then, that they have
lost much of their power to Inspire? Blnce
women have become men's "pals," they
have oeased to be Inspirations. Yet
there Is no reason why this should be the
case, except that women go to extremes
In everything. Instead of raising man to
their own level, they have decended to
his.
The selfish and mercenary spirit, which
seems to hsve crept Into all sections of
society, must also, be held responsible In
some measure for the disappearance of
sentiment. No ties bind mistress and
servant together, except those ot mutual
self-interest. There Is little of the old
spirit of loyalty on either side. Each
looks at thinks entirely from her own
standpoint, and falls to see the others
point of view.
A great revolution fe.as taken place In
the relations beween parents and children.
Paternal Authority has lost much of Its
old-time power. Children no longer look
at their parents through a roseate hate
of sentiment. All the little tauls and
folbler of their progenitors are carefully
noted and strongly disapproved by the
rising generation. No modern father
need try to Instil in his son a virtue which
he himself does not practice. The care
fully fostered tradition that age is in
variably accompanied by wisdom and
piety has been shattered to fragments.

Married Women as Wage Earners
J
i ..." J
'..'''..''
By nrtnoTin nix.
A working girl writes me sn exceed
ingly wrathy letter In which she Invelghe
ugalnst married women who are wugn
rernere, and declares that they take the
brood out of the
working girl's
mouth. 8he also
accuses the woman
who has both a
husband and a Job
of being a pig. who
wsnts more than
her share of the
good things of life.
Boftly. Utile sis
ter. The woman
who works outside
of her home after
she Is married la
oftener to be pitied
than criticised, for
In ninety-nine rases
out ot a hundred
it means that her
husband Is Inrap
able of supporting
her, and that to the burden of wifehood,
and often motherhood, she has to add
that of making a living. Sometimes the
husband Is the victim of unfortunste cir
cumstances. He loses his health, or Is
thrown out of work. And sometimes he
Isg just pliin no account and lazy.
in either Jaae the woman who must go
out and earn the food ot her family and
then come home and cook It Is as
pathetic a figure aa you can find. It Is
hard enough for a young girl to have to
stand behind a counter, or pound a type
writer all day, but how Infinitely worse
for the woman who has been up half of
the night nursing an Invalid husband, or
listening for the footsteps of a drunken
one, and perhaps cowering away, from
his blows, or who has left a little sick
child at home and whose heart stands
still with fear every time a strange foot
step draws near, lest It be some one bring
ing her the bad news she dreads to hear.
The home 1b the goal of practically
every woman's desire. Not many mar
ried women leave It willingly to go out
nto the world and work, and when one
dos become a bread winner you will
find that she has almost -invariably been
driven to It by stern necesHlty.
Of course, my correspondent's, view
that the woman who Is married, and who
has ostensibly a husband to support her,
should not compete with unmarried
women In the labor market, la a natural,
If a prejudiced one. As a matter of fact,
however. It has no standing In justice.
tvery one of us has a right to nf, lib
erty and the pursuit of happiness In our
own way, and If the married woman
feels that she can best help hereelf by
working outside of the home Instead of
In It, or that she prefers typewriting to
cooking, she has a perfect right to do
as she pleases In the matter, dotting
married didn't change her talents and
should not curtail her privilege of m;lng
them.
The theory of society is that every
man Is able to earn a comfortable living
for himself and his family. This should
be true, but under present economic con
ditions It Is not always the case. There
are plenty of men who do the very best
they can and yet can never keep the
wolf away from the door. Should not
the wife of such a man have a right to
shoulder her gun and help make war on
the common enemy, poverty?
There, are other men. good and true
and lovable, who are born without any
business faculty. Just aa most of us are
born' without a tenor voire. Many of
thete men marry women who have the
talent for getting on that the husbands
laok. Shall such wives sit down snd fold
their hands and let their families starve
because, If they go out to work, they
will compete with unmarried women? i
Again, there are many young couples
who are In love and who could murry
comfortably on the combined earnings of
both, but who must forever remain apart
If the wife gives up her Job on her wed-'
ding day.
If a wife can help her husband more
by earning money than she can by cook
ing his dinner and washing his shirts, is
there any reason why she shouldn't do
It? There are many esses In which a
man's future prosperity could be as
sured by his wife holding onto h'r Job
and bringing In a little necesoary money
for a year or two after marriage.
Nor does It seem fair to ask the woman
who has spent thousands of dollars and
years of time fitting herself to follow
some profession or calling, to give It up
Just because she marries and some single
woman would like to have her place.
A great deal of the most valuable
work !n the world Is done by married
women, because matrimony, whothnr it
Is happy or miserable, broadens a wom
an outlook and deepens her sympathy
and comprehension. Also the married
woman who la a wage-earner has set
tied down for a life Job at whatever she
Is doing, as a general thing, whereas the
girl worker Is looking forward to matrl
mony to emancipate her from slsvery to
her yardstick or ledger. And It would
be a distinct loss to the world It It were
deprived of the services of Its married
women workers.
The real objection to married women
being wage earners Is not that they com
pete with young girls, but the moral ef
fect It has on their hunbanda. There are
some men who are spurred on to greater
efforts by the fact that their wives srs
out In the world tolling, trying to help
them by making money, but unfortun
ately the majority of husbands whose
wives can support them, let them do it.
The statistics of factory towns wh.ra
many women work In the mills, show that
the men contribute very little to the
family exchequer. They spend their
money on themselves, and leave their
wives to feed and clothe the family. . '
All of this makes the problem of the
wage-earning wife one thut cannot be
settled by any blanket rule. It has to be
worked out In each Individual case on
Its own merits, not by denvlnu tho mar.
rled woman the right to compete with the
unmarried one,
But the lure of the business world la
not so great to women as many sup
pose. Every woman's dream of her own
home, her own fireside, her own man,
able with his good right arm to provide
fort her, and she does not often, after
marriage, apply for her old Job unless her '
castle in fcpaln has fallen In ruins about
her cars.
