In the course of a year I get hundred u a hair's breadth, th way har husband ,of letters from neglected wives telling ' treats her after ha ha fallen Into the ma their tales of woe. Every one of theae .letters Is soaked In -team and dripping with the very life blood of a broken Inserted wife. They are tragedy itarlf. and yet. at the aama time, they ore sar donically humorous ,ln their lark of rca "son and refusal to accept the loLc of a Initiation. For after feeling the wrongs aha en durea at her hus band's hands sfter enumerating hisfcru tailtlea to her; after . telling that ho never speaka to her. ex cept to auu.ee and Insult her; after relating that he has jtlred of her and forsaken her for soma other woman, and that ha apenda Me money rioting with his companion, leav ing her ana the children to half starve, and after writing that he, perhaps, beate her In his furies when she remonstrates with him for his conduct the woman al moat Invariably winda up by saying: 'What can I do? I don't want to leave my husband, because, tn spite of the wsy h treats me. I love him still" Isn't that the Inscrutable feminine at (Its moat weirdly mysterious moment? Van there be anything mora curious than 'that a woman should love a man who so mistreated her? Or could there be any "thing more cynically- funi.y than that a woman should blandly ai"k for some re liable recipe for changing htr husband's mature, and converting him from a rounder or a beast Into a loving, tender domestte spouse? You don't know whether to weep over such a woman or to laugh at her. But It la easy enough to answer her question. What shall a wife do who la married to a man who neglects her and llltreats iher. but who still lives him so much that she doesn't want to leave liiro? The answer Is stand it without whin ing. If you have no mora spirit than the whipped dog that licks the hand that bears It. at least forbear to uisturb other people's peace by howling about your grievances. To a decent, dignified woman, with any ahred of self-rcfpect. there are but two courses open In dealing with a hus band who neglects and abuses her. On 'la to pack her trunk and get up and .leave him. And the other Is. If she stai s with him, to cover her bruises from the gate of the world, and to bear her troubles In silence. It's up to her to cither hike out and I'ave the condition that she finds so afflicting, or else to nut uo a bluff at liking them, but she , hasn't any right to stand being neg- j lected. and then bedew the Innocent by- nh her icau over an unfaithful husband.

Every wife decides just hew her hus band shall treat her. and sue gets Just what Is coming to her. if she will stand for Insults and being sworn at. ahe will be aworn at and Inaulted, but If ahe Insists .on being treated as a lady, ahe gets the respect duo to a lady.

If a young wife begins meeting a hus band at the door with a sweet smile, and an Ice pack whan he comes home drunk, she'll have to keep doing It till the end of the chapter. If ahe forgives his every time he goes sidestepping, and lovea him still, ha won't thjnk it worth while to be faithful to her. but If he knowa that he haa either got to walk straight or face divorce proceedings. It's the narrow path for bltn. The only reason on earth that women, as a elasa, are mora moral than men Is because men hava forced them to be. A man does not forgive an erring wife, and therefor women behave themselves, whereas the women shuts her eyes to her husband's frailties, and he takea advan tage of this to do aa he pleaae. in my opinion the chief reason that men get tired of their wlvea Is because the wives buven't got enough spirit and Independence to make the matrimonial game Interesting. It's humsn nature not to value those who hold themselves cheaply, and no woman ever does a more fatal thing for her own good than when ahe lets her husband find out that he can use her jli he pleases, and Ihe will meekly overlook It. and that her Ion la of the kind that nothing will kill.

In the first of this series of article. concerning some of our great predecessors In America, I described th gigantic Trl- seratop. Today we have to do with an animal equally gigantic and perhaps even more wonderful, the 8tegosaurus, or "roof backed llsard," which probably lived still earlier than the Triceratopa. along th great shallow Inland sea which crossed the continent east of the present Uo of the Rocky mountains. In the geological epochs known as the Jurassic and Cre taceous era. Twenty-fir feet seems to have been a very common length for the monsters of that time. These were lb dimensions of tli Ktegosaurua a Weil aa of th Triceratopa. Geologists call their time th "Age of th Great Heptll." Kvtdently taejr needed to be big and atrong, for everything about them Indlcatea that they pawed their days In fighting for their live. They were armed and armored from and of snout to tip of tail.

Th imagination cannot go astray In picturing Uie terror of the cen when oa of the tremendous creatures were attacked by It enemies.

Jealousy was not Intro duced Into the world by th son of Adam. Th Btegnoaauru fought for its mat. Th principal use of its armor and It weapon, like that of th moose' anllrs, and th bear' lusks, was for contest with Its own kind. Hut the strength and thickness of th armor, and th ls and power of th weapons, Indi cate how terrible, beyond all modern example, thoso contests must have been. And with Its ounce or so of brain, th Stegnoaaurus did not calculate odd or consider consequences. As time went on the fighting equip ment of the creatures of the "Age of Reptile" became more and mora complicated and massive, until, as waa remarked In former artlcl. they became so heavy sad unmanageable that their bearers exterminate-! themselvea.
