DEFRAUDING OUR WIVES.
With the ballot in her hand and good stand
ing in the political parties, woman's property
eights are going to have recognition in places
(where she is now regarded as a chattel in Chi
cago, for instance, where an indictment for
embezzlement against a man accused of ap
propriating to his personal use stocks valued
at $42,000 owned by his wife, has been quashed
jby a court
"It is impossible for a husband to steal from
Jiis wife, or for a wife to steal from her hus
band," says this learned judge, "because law
frays they are one." This opinion may be law
in Illinois, but the court which renders it is not
court of justice, because its decision is based
on a wicked, inequitable and selfish masculine
interpretation of matrimony inherited from the
tone age.
Cave man stuff, with its physical maltreat
Bient of women, its grab and carry off court
ships, has been modified only, not abandoned.
Property is what man has always sought, and
in the stone age woman was the most desirable
property in sight, so he fought to possess her.
Now he woos and wheedles her into marriage
"and then gives his congenital cave man propen
sities full play by grabbing her property, di
verting solely to his own use the fruits of her
labor, and otherwise practicing what is es
sentially "cave man rough stuff" adroitly per
petuated by laws which legalize the robbery of
women through matrimony.
Is it not true? Dear reader, look about you.
Consider the evidence before your eyes in your
own neighborhood, among your own friends
and associates. Do you know a married woman
fcnywhere, a true wife, a good mother, who has
been a faithful worker in the home, whose toil
and economy and loyalty to her husband and
( children has been adequately recompensed
finally? Do you know a husband who divides
the property profits of the life partnership called
marriage on a 50-50 basis with his wife?
We are considering here the real women, not
the parasites who attach themselves to a hus
band merely to be pampered and kept, who
dodge work and responsibility, who lead idle,
useless and shirking lives. They deserve no
consideration from any source.
Who can look the truth in the face and say
that "it is impossible for a husband to steal
from his wife?" Are not all husbands doing it
consciously or unconsciously? Are they not
everywhere coolly pocketing the profits of the
matrimonial game with never a thought of a
fair division of the surplus? Ask one of these
affectionate sinners "why he does not declare a
dividend for his wife, and he will tell you the
home is in his wife's name, that his life is in
sured for her benefit, and that his will provides
amply for her when he is gone. "When he is
gone." Get that. When he can use it no longer
the home will be wholly hers, and the life in
surance, and the property. But not until the
hand that writes his checks is stiff in death.
And suppose the wife dies first! How can
the husband square himself then? Has he not,
s a matter of cold fact well, say it yourself.
boys and girls of today, at practically no ex
pense to their parents. Marbles, tops, kites,
stilts, balls, jumping ropes, hop scotch a score
of games gave them joys in abundance. But
later the pleasures of boys and girls came from
the family purse. Their recreations were paid
for. They learned to be spenders, and have car
ried into manhood and womanhood the belief
that amusement can be had only for a money
consideration. As a consequence we are spend
ing hundreds of millions for recreations. Our
purses are always open, and if we do not have
a care many of them will be empty when we
really need money for necessities.
Kansas Labor Law.
Addressing the Methodists at Des Moines,
Governor Allen explained the Kansas labor law
is not in any sense intended to bind a worker
to his job or to close the gate of opportunity to
anybody. It merely aims to prevent a group of
men from conspiring together to shut off the
supply of anything needful, and through the
artificially created scarcity and suffering re
sulting therefrom to successfully blackmail the
public into meeting their demands. It is pos
sible, as the coal miners amply proved, for such
a group to throw the entire social life of the
country into discord. Such power should be
permitted to nobody. Were the mine owners,
for example, to undertake its exercise, they
would be very quickly brought to bar, and none
would benefit more directly from their dis
comfiture than the miners, .who, after all, are
a part of the, community, sharing in its privi
leges and expected to assume some of its cares.
The illustration applies to any basic industry,
and may without violence be extended to all.
Kansas has sought to evolve a substitute for
the strike, to the end that justice may be done in
settling industrial disputes without interruption
of orderly productive operations. The law may
not be perfect, and very likely is not. It is an
outgrowth of experience, however, and as time
goes on and its defects are discovered, it may
be remedied so as to meet public requirements.
Strikes may not be totally eliminated, certainly
not through the operation of law, but they can
and should be made so remote as to be com
paratively negligible in the industrial life of the
nation.
Mother's Day.
Mother! The holiest name on earth, the at
tribute that connects man most closely to his
Maker. Nothing in animate creation approaches
mother in importance. She is the embodiment
of the productive force, the thing without which
the world would have stopped long ago. To
her we owe our existence, from her we drew
not only our sustenance but our inspiration.
She comforted us in sorrow, soothed us when
unhappy, and commiserated our childish griefs.
Our feet were directed into right paths by her,
and at her knee we learned those first great
lessons whose abiding influence has shaped our
course through life. When in trouble, we sought
mother; to her we carried our first triumphs,
and with her we shared our most perfect joys.
And this is Mother's Day. On it we are asked
to give her testimony and proof that in the
hurlyburly of life she is not forgotten, that no
matter how busy, or widely separated, she still
shares in our lives. The tenderest ties, the
loftiest sentiments, the holiest relations, are
those that bind mother to the race. Let today
then be an everlasting reminder of what men
owe to the mothers of the race, and paiticu
larly to that dear one who went down to the
Valley of the Shadow to bring forth the babe
whose chiefest solace should be in remembering
her and whose pride should be to call her
blessed!
As the Twig is Bent.
The "crev of snendine" which has been the
subject of so much speculation and condemna
tion is not wholly a result of post-bellum condi
tions. The inflation of currency the world over
has supplied much of the cheap money now so
Treely squandered in the gratification of vanities
ind appetites, but behind it all was a general
Jesire to spend and a fixed habit or spending.
Where did thev originate? '
We have but to go back to the time, not so
far away, when parents began to teach their
children that money was the source ot pleasure.
Rnv and cirls of a veneration ago had just
ys good times, just as much pleasure, a the
Farm Labor and Food Supply.
A shortage in food is imminent as a result
of a reduced crop yield for 1920. Fewer acres
will be cultivated, because of shortage in help
needed to till the ground.
That is a condition and not a theory. It
grows out of the unusual demand for labor in
urban industry. Agriculture is at a distinct dis
advantage in that it lacks the attractions that
go with city employment. A great deal of the
work on the farm partakes of the nature of
drudgery. Modern improvements have softened
much of the hardship that once was the inevita
ble accompaniment of life in rural districts, but
no invention of man has accelerated or modified
the processes of nature. Therefore, certain
things must be done at a certain time, and this
means long hours of arduous toil during the
planting and growing seasons, and most strenu
ous efforts during harvest time.
Against this the city offers hours of work
regulated by a time clock and a wage contract,
with plenty of amusements to fill in the leisure
time between knocking off and going to bed.
This is the side of the picture that allures the
boy from the farm. Only when it is too late
does he see the other side of the picture, that
his wages are not enough to meet his wants,
that he must continually deny himself the
gratification of some desire awakened by his
contact with the larger world, and that ma
terially he would have been better off 'had he
stuck to the plow.
"Urban employers should make it a point to
discourage farm boys from leaving their rural
homes and employment to come to the cities,
and should use their good offices to persuade
the country boys who do not make good in
town to go back to the rural life," says the
Minneapolis Tribune, quoting the president of
the National Dairymen's association. "How are
you going to keep them down on the farm?" is
not yet answered, but if the big city employers
will follow this advice, it may lead to some
good. At any rate, the situation is serious
enough to demand most careful consideration.
Farm labor is needed to produce food, and with
out food city life is impossible.
The Successful Man's Life.
From the age of. 20 to 30 a man has his op
portunity to develop' into efficiency in whatever
trade, business or profession he prefers: from
30 to 40 comes his chance to be the head of a
family, own a home and become proprietor of
his business, or establish a satisfactory income
rom his profession; from 40 to 50 he may build
up and invest a surplus that will yield a sufficient
annuity to provide for the higher education of
his children and the lifelong needs of himself
and family.
Then what? Secure in the possession of a
competence, shall he continue his money-making
in competition with younger men, or retire
from his business otr profession? There is a
wide diversity of opinion about this matter, both
as it relates to a man's health and the com
munity's welfare. The man of 50 with a com
fortable fortune is in a position to greatly in
crease his wealth, if in business; or to remain
a highly valuable community asset if in a pro
fession. But there is another side. Is the best life
one wholly devoted to business enterprizes or
professional achievements? Labor, with shorter
hours, takes its recreations and hours. of ease
as it goes. Business works all the time, along
with the profession, day hours and night hours.
No whistle blows to check the constant efforts
of either. Can there be a well-rounded, satis
factory life for the successful man without ex
tended recreation, wide reading in general lit
trature, the study of social conditions and time
devoted to their improvement, acquaintance
ith his whole country and with foreign lands
y personal observation?
There is a goal in every race, a time to stop
and think of other things. In life is it the final
solemn moment when the doctor rises from his
chair at the bedside? Or is it when the man has
enough to insure comfort in the future? ' The 20
years from 50 to 70 might be well spent by the
tetired successful man.

"Hoover." Doubly significant, indeed. It was
thus in "Roosevelt" and in "Woodrow." Al

Popular Science.
Sir: Your technically inclined readers will
be interested in a new law discovered by Dr.
Remsen, ex-President of Johns Hopkins, and
given to the world in an address at Urbana sev
eral months ago. "Jn any discussion," said Dr.
Remsen, "the heat evolved varies inversely with
the knowledge displayed." Expressed as a for
mula, this law takes the form H equals V-K, in
which C is a constant, the value of which de
pends upon the units used for II and K.
In order to determine the value of C, I re
cently performed, with the help of the Professor
of Heating and Ventilation and the Professor of
Political Science, an experiment on two speakers
at a debate on the League of Nations. The heat
evolved was determined by directing a meas
ured quantity of air at a given temperature
against the speakers and noting its increase in
temperature; the knowledge displayed was de
termined by the Professor of Political Science.
As a result of this experiment, I am able to
announce that when the heat units are ex
pressed in B. T. U. and the unils of knowledge
in ounces, the value of the (J becomes 1. Ap
plications are simple. It is estimated that a
million B. t. u.'s are evolved in the course of
one afternoon of debate in the United States
Senate. Substituting this value in the above
equation, the value for K becomes one one
millionth of an ounce. ENGINEER.

REDUCING MUSHROOM
HAZARD.
Last year I wrote of an old man
whom I saw hunting mushrooms. I
asked him how he told the good
from the bad, the safe from the un
safe. His reply was: "1 stigs to
dem I knows." However appetizing
a mushroom might appear, he re
jected it unless he knew the variety
to be a safe one.
A professor in the University of
Illinois was kind enough to send me
copies of his reports on mushrooms
and to- express his approval of the
plan of "sagging to dem you knows."
It is all right for scientific gentle
men to study the subject of mush
rooms and to make use of "dem dey
knows to be safe." The advice to
the ordinary mushroom hunter is
likewise "to stick to those he
knows," even though he deprive
hfmsslf thereby of some plentiful
and safe varieties.
But here I read an opinion by a
great naturalist, one of the greatest
in the world, a man pronounced by
Charles Darwin to be the best ob
server ho had ever encountered
Henri Fabre. In Henri Fabre's book
on "The Fly" there is a chapter on
mushrooms and insects. He found
that insects are fond of poisonous
mushrooms, as mueTi so as they are
of the safe kind. He knocked out
the folk lore opinion that insects
avoided poisonous mushrooms. This
sign takes its place on the discard
along with the silver spoon test.
But Henri Fabre built up as well
as destroyed. He lived in a wild
district in rural France, on the foot
of a mountain side. His peasant
neighbors all hunted mushrooms on
the mountain side. As Fabre walked
abroad prosecuting his studies as a
naturalist he encountered mushroom
hunters daily. He made it a daily
routine to greet them and inspect
their tinds. At first he was dis
turbed and perplexed to find all
kinds of poisonous mushrooms in
the baskets and to be told they were
eaten without harm.
Upon investigation he found that
there had not been a single case of
mushroom poisoning in that prov
ince for many years. And then he
discovered the reason. It was the
universal custom to boil the mush
rooms in order to remove the poison.
"In my village," he writes, "and
for a long way around, the rule is
to blanche the mushrooms, that is
to say," to bring them to a boil In
water with a little salt in it. A few
rinsings in (told water concludes the
treatment. They are then prepared
in whatever manner one pleases. In
this way what might nt first be dan
gerous becomes harmless because
the preliminary boiling and rinsing
have removed the noxious element
He says that after such treatment
he has eaten without harmful re
suits such highly poisonous mush'
rooms as the ringed agaric, smooth-
headed amanita, blue turning bole
tus, mottled amanita, lemon yellew
amanita, olive tree agaric, and the
belted milk producer.

ary boiling is the best sareguara

mushrooms." He bolls an musn-
rooms regardless of their kind. Nor
did he find that boiling in any way
lessened the succulence of flavor of
mushrooms. He expresses the hope
that he may be the means of popu

How to Avoid Boils.
J. D. M. writes: "I would like to
ask you if I have the boil disease.
About two years ago I had eight
boils. This year I had seven, and
still have four on:my neck. Every
time one festers I get more. 1 have
them fixed with a black salve, and
sometimes 1 have them squeezed.
Will you please tell me how 1 could
get rid of them? Have I bad blood?
Do I have to diet?
KErLT.
A good way to get eight boils Is
to dress the first one witn a salve.
If you want a surer way to get
eight, use poultices. To prevent
boils on the neck keep your skin
very clean, wear soft collars, do
not shave your neck or in any way
scratch or irritate the skin. Do not
eat candy or desserts. If you have
a boil and wish to avoid having oth
ers, do not poultice; do not use
salves; keep your neck very clean.
After washing with soap and water,
apply borax water. Do not wear any
garment which irritates tne skin.
Boils are not caused by bad blood.
