Women at War!
We do not mean the Amazons, the
dynamiters, nor the militants.
But those food women no dear to
our hearts who make our homes for
us.
These wholesome folks have a
treaty with cleanliness that keeps
them ever at war against dirt and
uncleanllnesi In all Its forms.
Soap, If you work hard enough
with it, will make things clean, hut
It wont' kill germs!
Born mixed In proportion with
soap will make the aoap work bet
ter and your work easier. Also
borax kills germs.
Bo that by using borax snap chips
you get things clean with lens work
than by the old methods and you
also get them antiseptic.
25c worth of "20 Mule Team
Horax Soap Chips" will give you more
cleanliness with less work than 00c
worth of bar soap or washing pow
ders. Ad vert Iseitient.

LONG ago oh, a few weeks or bo we of the
zone where the snow flies were wading
waist deep In the gllsteny feathery stuff,
whipping around corners In a gale, with our
nose pink and our finger tips numb. And we
worried about the
precocious Spring
wore comfort! of fur and
spplo-blossoms In our too
bonnet. No wading now of any kind we walk
abroad and twiddle our thumbs and are bewil
dered but we dream of wading to come
heavy green sea-water with the foam Hk the
sleet to beat the blood Into our cheeks no
sleeves, 00 fur, no Spring bonnet to worry
about, but a free body and t warm skin In tbe
sun. We are just at the uncomfortable, awk
ward space that lies between sports. .

Haven't we bad enough of It? Haven't
we hsd too much?
H was announced In a few easily-overlooked
tines in the pewapspera that a
young girl of northern New York hmi
died after one year of marriage tiled.
It was thought, of a broken heart. .She
was It, this little American brkle. A year
ago, her face aglow with happiness and
neautlful with trust, she married, It wna
then said, aoeordlng to th respected
phrase, "'Th man of her choice."
The truth was it was the man who
had chosen her and who had overborne
her maidenly reluctance to man-leg.

might have re.aulted In permanent happi
ness Many such matches do. But this
match was In one respect extraordinary.
The man convict. He was on
parole. A tender-hearted philanthropy
had established In th town In which the
Kill lived a boarding houae for paroled
convict. The tender-hearted philanthro
pist choae the gliTa mother to manage
the boarding houae. The guest, as he
exprenxe.I It, -foil love' with th
daughter.
The air of the boarding houae was full
of sentiment, the sentiment of the phil
anthropist, who called hla paroled con
victs hla ho.Y.s;" the acntlment of the
mother, who with tears In her eyea talked
about her mission to "raise fallen men;"
th vibration of this sentiment struck
the young girl, permeated her balng.
She KiK-cumbed to It snd married th
Jailbird. That In one year of marriage ha
mulcted upon her th gift of a broken
heart and broken life, was treated scant
ily by th newspaper. There Is so much
big na now, 10 much of wholesale
slsughter, of the neit national conven
tion, so many national and personal fu
tures In the balance, that an M-year-old
bride's hrokon heart weighed but little In
comparison.

Why I Never Married
No 5"The Woman Who Sacrificed Her Happiness
.'to Her Family Tells Her Story . . .
Why do so many women who are at
tractive, intelligent, full of human affec
tion and tendernera-the sort of women
who were designed by nature to make
ideal wives uml mothers never marry?
la It because they were bent on celi
bacy? Or Is it because men were too
stupid to know a good thing when thev
saw It, ami so pnswd them over? Or
Is It the fnull of social conditions that
never gave them their matrimonial
chalice?
It Is one of life's great pussies and In
n attempt to solve It Dorothy Dig ha

at taking the verbal fence to matrimony.
But why stink at speech, when you
don't stick at anything else? It must be
