BLAMING IT ON THE WOMAN.
Man has ever been inclined to attribute his
folliesajnd failures to the influence of woman, at
least ever since the Biblical story of the Fall
Become a general belief. The Old Testament is
peppered with historical incidents, poems, la
mentations and proverbs in which women get
the worst of it. At the very beginning, be
cause Eve was disobedient and invited Adam
to become her companion in sin, the Lord put an
especially heavy yoke on her and her female
descendants. In penalizing the three parties to
the original human rebellion against divine au
thority the subtle serpent who introduced
lemptation to Eve was sentenced to go on his
belly and eat dut all his life; Eve's sorrows
were multiplied and she was placed under the
domination of her husband; and Adam, because
he "hearkened unto the voice of his wife," was
condemned to cat his bread in the sweat of his
face in a never ending contest with the thorns
and thistles of life. Eve was most severely pun
ished, because the Lord said to her: "Thy hus
band . . . shall rule over tliec."
These punishments would not have been so
crushing if they had been applied only to the
original triangle of woe. But they fell upon the
whole human race, which 'has sweated, agonized
and struggled under them ever since.
One of the notable instances in sacred his
tory of the blame being laid by interpreters
(unjustly, we think) upon a woman, is that of
Delilah's exploit with the hair of Samson, the
sporting judge of Israel. Miss Delilah was
simply a tool of the lords of the Philistines a
wicked tool, undeniably, but the fault was in
Judge Samson himself. He was a violent man,
headstrong, immoral and of adventurous dis
position. Wherever he held court he had a
roving eye for pretty women, as every one in
the tribe of Dati well knew. He gambled con
stantly with his prodigious physical strength,
his amours were numerous and spectacuhr, and
he a good joke. His judicial decisions were just
so far as the records reveal them. Incidentally,
it may be mentioned that he was a lifelong pro
hibitionist in a land flowing with good wine.
But the fact remains (hat his career and its
pitiful ending, were the legitimate and natural
result of his own follies and excesses, and are
not to be charged against the beautiful Miss
Delilah.
In profane history Cleopatra is held up as a
famous example of a bad woman wrecking the
lives of great men. In her 28th year she met
Marcus Anthony of Rome, who promptly and
willingly succumbed to her charms, in spite of
the fact that he was a married man. We are
asked to sympathize with this Roman general
who pronounced the funeral oration over the
body of Julius Caesar, "the greatest man of an
tiquity;" who married twice; and ended his
career with a dagger when Cleopatra sent him
word she was dead. We cannot do so.
In both sacred and profane history gifted
and dissolute women are mentioned usually as
striking examples of evil influence on equally
gifted and dissolute men. Why not put it the
other way? History is strangely silent about
the despicable conduct of men who destroyed
the lives of women, because ancient, as well as
modern historians omit such things where pos
sible because, shall We say? of a fellow feeling.
In America the sins of great men against
women have been many, and never mentioned
Unless suppression was impossible. Birt we
suspect there will be a change with women in
full possession of the ballot. Already defeated
candidates in primary elections are saying "the
woman whom thou gavest me" did it. The old
Wan excuse, applied to politics. But "blaming
it on the women" is not going to be good
politics not long for while the kick has been
laken out of beverages largely through the infut-
nce of good women, with woman suffrage a new
and potent kick is entering the front door of civil
government and is likely to send certain un
holy and unscrupulous powers kiting into ob-
ivion. Speed the day!
necessities, always advance in late winter, along
with sugar, coffee, apples, beans, onions and
other staples, but in to&n they are not "laid in"
for the winter as formerly to the profit of the
dealers at the cost of the family.
It is a poor way to get along, living out of
little paper bags and packages, cans and cartons;
and a costly one withal. But the habit of doing
so has become a firmly established custom. It
would make an interesting story to figure just
how much a family of five would save between
November 1 and May 1 by buying all possible
food supplies in advance for the six months'
period. ,
V'k
Or
Election the Acid Test.
The ability to make entrancing speeches on
political subjects and draw vast crowds of en-
husiastic auditors, has won many a party
nomination, but in presidential campaigns has
cored notable failures to win elections. The
xperience of James G. Blaine, the darling of
Lll republican campaign orators, and of Mr.
Jryan, who has thrilled democratic mass meet-
ng9 time without number, are instances that
!ccur at once to the mind.
Brilliance, eloquence and magnetic person
lity are not enough for the American people
uhen thev are choosing a president. They go
peeper into the character of candidates.
A Profitable Custom Abandoned.
"To every thing there is a season, and a
ime to every purpose under the heaven," says
she Preacher. Fortunate are those who know
fhe time when it comes. A generation ago the
Erfce to provide for the family s needs during
he winter was before winter came, and goodly
tores were laid by irt cellar and smokehouse,
itcherj and barn, to keep the family well fed
intil the earth should again yield its crops. It
ii not so now in the cities, except in the matter
if fuel. The average family buys its table sup

The Interchurch "Drive."
Today will begin the greatest co-ordinated
movement ever undertaken by the Protestant
churches. For one week every Protestant
church organization in America will devote its
full power and energy to an intensive effort
aimed at securing money to carry on church
work. Denominational lines are not broken
down in this movement, ' nor is any tenet of
dogma or creed obliterated. (
Leaders 'of the churches have simply de
cided that all can do together much better than
each can do singly the big work they have in
view. Details have been" worked out carefully,
each has assumed or been apportioned the
amount it is to raise among its membership, and
all will share alike in the undesignated gifts.
Frnds so obtained are to be applied to carry
ing on the work of the institutions fostered by
the church, to the extension of Christianity
through support of missionary effort, and in
general to the purposes for which organized
religion stands.
The benefits' that will come from this simul
taneous effort arc obvious. The ground has been
carefully prepared through various means of
propagation of the central thought; a thorough
survey has been made of the situation as a
whole and as applied to 'each particular de
nomination, and the general plan as well as its
details based on the information so obtained.
This is a new and significant departure for the
church.
Hitherto the plan of "voluntary contribu
tions" has been relied upon, and while very large
sums of money have been so raised, the amount
is pitiably small in comparison with what is
actually ieeded. Under the' present arrange
ment the gifts will be voluntary offerings, but
the case will be presented with more of appeal,
to the end that the church members will be
helped in realizing more completely their obliga
tion. Salvation will continue to be free, but the
cost of spreading the gospel must be met some
how, and: "What shall it profit a man if he
gain the world and lose his soul?"
In Omaha all is ready for the big move, and
the workers feel confidence in the success of
their effort. The outcome will in a sense be a
fair measure of the sincerity and devotion of
the Protestant church membership of the United
States.
Omaha's Tuesday Musical Club.
One agency for the cultivation and dissemi
nation of artistic knowledge to which Omaha
owes (considerable of its cultural advancement
is the Tuesday Musical club. The natural out
growth of a smaller and more exclusive organ
ization, originally limited in membership to a
comparatively few earnest students of music, it
has come to be a most important factor in the
city's social life. At a time when the business
of bringing here the great musicians of tiie
world, tha't they might charm and enlighten
those who otherwise could not hear then;, was
falling into decay, th:s organization shook off
the limits of its original form, took over the
greater work, and has accordingly prospered. It
is in no sense a money-making institution; its
members have a distinct advantage in being
preferred for-sittings at any concert or recital
under the club's auspices, but whatever of gain
is netted in the club's exchequer is used for the
advancement" of the aYt to which it is devoted.
The season which closed last night has been
perhaps the most brilliant of its history, because
of the energy and good management of the
ladies who directed the club's activities. Omaha
has had much of direct benefit as a result of this
organization's activities, and it is encouraging
to know it is already laying plans for even
greater things in ftie future. Its service to the
community is greater than even its members
realize. '
Mark Twain's Character.
The editor of the Atlantic Monthly, while
printing Gamaliel Bradford's article on Mark
Twain in the April number, could not let it go
without the following note on the title itself:
The material essential to an intelligent es
timate of Mark Twain's character will be
found, of course, in Albert Bigelow Paine's
monumental and very human biography.
That footnote in itself is sufficient to excite
a lively curiosity in the mind of the reader as to
what Mr. Bradford has written to call forth
such an editorial suggestion. The text fully re
wards that curiosity. It is a brilliant, steely, ap
preciative estimate of a many-sided man, with a
shocking conclusion that leaves one with a feel
ing of almost bitter disappointment, and uncer
tain whether the disappointment should be
charged to Mark Twain or the wTiter. Cer
tainly nothing so frankly condemnatory of
Mark's irreverence has appeared for many
years, nor any review which carries with it so
deep a sting for those who loved Mark Twain.
A Much Married Sport.
How many times should a divorced man be
permitted to marry. The notorious "Kid
McCoy" is about to marry the ninth time to the
seventh woman. From one of his wives he was
divorced three times. A man six women have
been unable o live with would certainly be
rated a bad risk in matrimonial insurance.
It would seem that for the good reputation
of marriage as an restitution, as well as for the
protection of susceptible women, some restric
tion might properly be placed on the marrying
proclivities of persons temperamentally unable
to stay hitched.
Omaha's building record still 'shows up
pretty well, but nothing what it would be if men
and material were available.
Churches helped wonderfully in the war
drives; now we will see if they have forgotten
how.
We had an early fall, so perhaps this late
spring is sent as compensation.

GOVKRNMENT BY THK PKOPLK.
(Walter Graham Sumner, "The Forgotten Man")
The truth is that cupidity, selfishness, envy,
malice, lust, vindietiveness, are constant vices of
human nature. They are not confined to classes
or to nations or to particular ages of the world.
They present themselves in the palace, in the
parliament, in the academy, in the church, in
the workshop ind in the hovel. They appear in
autocracies, theocracies, ' aristocracies, democ
racies, and ochlocracies all alike. They change
their masks somewhat front age to age and from
one form of society to another. All history is
only one long .story to this effect: men have
struggled for power over their fellow-men in
order that they might win the joys of earth at;
the expense of others and might shift the bur
dens of life from their own shoulders upon
those of others. It is true that, until this time,
the proletariat, the mass of mankind, have
rarely had the power and they have not made
such a record as kings and nobles and priests
have made of the abuses they would perpetrate
against their fellow-men when they could and
dared. But what. folly it is to think that vice
nnd passion are limited by classes, that liberty
consists only in taking power away from nobles
and priests and giving it to artisans and peas
ints, and that these latter will never abuse it!
They will abuse it just as all others have done
unless they are put under checks and guarantees,
and there can be no civil liberty anywhere un
less rights are guaranteed against all abuses, as
well from proletarians as from generals aristo
crats, and ecclesiastics.

HAY FEVER CAUSES CURES
"I am subject to yearly attacks of
hay fever," A. B writes. "What can
1 do to .prevent them?
Every year it becomes easier to
answer questions similar to this.
Hay fever is ht two types that
which comes in the spring and the
regular August-autumn kind. As a
rule spring hay fever is due to grass
pollen, while that of the August-autumn
type is due in the main to rag
weed. 1
A sufferer can discover which
polen causes his trouble by having
skin tests made. The pollen vac
cines prepared for making these
tests are put out by the drug manu
facturing" concerns, and any physi
cian can get them. The method of
testing is so simple that any physi
cian can carry it out.
The time to make tese tests ts
now, months in advance of the hay
fever season. In fact, it is already
late to begin a campaign to ward off
spring hay fever this spring.
Having established which pollens
! are responsible, the next step is to
test to see how sensitive the patient
is. Tests are made with pollen ex
tracts diluted as little as 1 to 100,
with other dilutions of 1 to 100,000,
and with still other dilutions in be
tween. Having1 determined the smallest
dose which will cause a reaction
treatment to decrease sensitiveness
is begun. The treatment consists in
getting the patient used to this
pollen by injecting: him hypodermic
ally with very small doses of it
doses too small to cause any reac
tion. If time is pressing the Injec
tions should be given at four-day in
tervals. If there is plenty of time
the interval should be one week.
The amount injected should be in
creased slightly each week. After
many treatments the patient be
comes so accustomed to pollens that
he no longer reacts to them.
If a case comes on at the hay
fever season and has the typical
symptoms of hay fever it can usually
be presumed that the case is one of
hay fever and the only testing that
need be done is for sensitiveness to
pollen.
The number of hay fever sufferers
who chase the climate cure runs
into the thousands, the amount of
money they spend annually into the
millions. The only proper basis for
the selection of a hay fever resort
is a skin test made on the subject,
not on the resort. The question is
not whether Jones gets relief at
Saltair, but whether this particular
individual will. The only way to
know that is for the person inter
ested to have himself tested and then
to go somewhere where his pet
aversion does not abound.
Some hay fever subjects develop
real bronchial asthma toward the
latter part of the hay fever .season,
some still earlier in the course of
!the complaint. These cases fall into
two groups. In one group there is
so much pollen and the patient is
so sensitive that the pollen gets into
his tubes and sets up a condition
there similar to the well known con
dition in the nose and eyes.
There is nothing for persons in
this group to do but stay in looms,
the open windows of which are cov
ered by damp cheese cloth, and to
wear veils. As soon as the season
is over they should begin vaccina
tion, so as to be ready for the next
season.
The second group develop bronch
ial asthma, because they are highly
susceptible to the poisons from cer
tain bronchial tube bacteria, as well
as to pollens. Therefore, all hay
fever subjects who are accustomed
to developing bronchial astham be
fore the season is over should have
skin tests made for susceptibility to
ordinary air bacteria.

it establish its own dispensaries. They also
claim that the government license of $25

for bran bread. It is very palatable
as well as healthful: Two cups bran,
two cups graham or whole wheat,
one-half cup sugar, two-thirds table
spoon soda, two-thirds tablespoon
salt, one egg, two cups sour miik- or
buttermilk, one-half cup light brown
molasses, one cup seeded dates; nuts
if desired. Mix dry ingredients and
wet ingredients separately, then
combine. Add nuts and dates last.
