SMILES AND
LAUGHTER
By THOMAS ARKLE CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.
SHE was a very handsome woman I
bad to admit to mysvlf as I caught
a hasty Impression of her sitting com
posedly In her section as I came Into
the car. I am Influenced very strong
ly by first Impressions, I am almost
ashamed to admit, and there was an
air of refinement about this woman
which was very convincing, Her gown
was In excellent taste modest, con
servative, and carefully tailored. Her
balr was beautifully kept and her
bands well manicured, I got all this
In a quick impression as I went to
my seat In the middle of the car.
She seemed a person one might like.
It was when she laughed that the
vision of her loveliness fuded out like
an electric light when the switch Is
turned off. It was a coarse, mucus,
vulgar laugh that pierced to the re
motest corners of the car. Women
turned In their seats to see what bad
bnpiened. Men craned their necks
to discover whence came the jangling
nerve-racking sound. It was an illit
erate, nutrulned, undisciplined voice
which spoke volumes. The most skill
ful art of modiste and hairdresser
and manicurist could not efface the
Impression of that loud laugh. It

Those who first met Keene, even the
most charitable In expressing their
opinions, were wont to say that he
had a very plain face. It was cur
rent opinion that he was the ugliest
man In town. He had rugged Irregu
lar features, a large nose, and a wide
cut mouth. His was a very serious,
almost a dull - face w hen It was In
repose. But when he smiled you
would have received an altogether
different impression of him. It was a
smile that changed and radiated his
whole countenance. It was the gen
tlest, friendliest, kindest, smile I have
ever seen on a man't face. Before
he spoke you could divine thnt his
voice was soft and well modulated.
You knew without being told that you
could trust him. He was the sort of
man you would go to If you were In
trouble, knowing full well that you
Spear Salmon

of the salmon leaping up the smooth
waterfall. There Is a lightning quick
strike and the struggling silver beauty,
safely speared. Is drawn to land to be
unjuvelined and the spear is ready for
another victim.
The best salmon spenrs are fitted
with barbed hooks and the fish Is
gaffed, rather thon speared. The book
comes off tl.t end of the shaft and
dangles on a cord tied to the pole.
This, the Indians point out, prevents
breakage of the shaft when a thirty
or forty pound fish Is taken.
Sometimes a lo-.en bl silmon will
be hooked by one Indian In a day. At
other times days pass without a catch.
But the redmen never complain about
luck. They poise over the shimmering,
tumbling water patiently waiting until
fish do come within range.

he came near them; children wcro
never afraid of him as they were often
of the more comely faced. I could
never explain this excepting thnt his
smile suggested gentleness, and his
quiet gentleness won human beings
and animals as well.
So fur as I know, man Is the only
animal that expresses emotion or a
state ot mind by smiles or laughter.
The hyena laughs we are told and
the loon, but there Is no more real
laughter In the sounds they make
than there Is music in the bray of a
donkey. Words, some one has said
were given us by the gods to conceal
our thoughts, but smiles and lnui:h
tor are the most definite and sincere
revelation of our true character and
state of mind. The villain may smile
but his smile only tends to reveal his
villainy.

Wife
London. The price of wives Is ad
vancing. Within the last few weeks
London divorce courts have awarded
damages to husbands against core
spondents to the tune of SUM)') and
1.1,uuu, and lustly, a few days ago
a husband was awarded SuO,i)0.
The .'jO,0ijo went to George Kdgar
Inginan, an estate agent and surveyor
of Worcester, who obtained a divorce
from his wife, daughter of a wealthy
man, on the ground of misconduct
with Captain Nec-I I'earson, formerly
of The Birches, liuglcy, near Birming
ham. Mr. Ingman announced in ad
vance that he would not retain the
uward, but would use It as a fund for
his duughter by the erring wife. A
alinilur declaration was made by the
husband who received the award of
$10,000.
In I'M iK-mutrlus Sophocles Con
stuiitluldl received an award of f li'y
ow Bgulnst a Doctor I.nnce In an
English court. The $.71,000 received
by Mr. Ingtnun equaled any record
made since then.
English Judges have a wide latitude
In addressing the Jury Id both civil
nnd criminal cases. Suits for divorce
are combined with suits against the
corespondent for loss of the wife's
services, under the English procedure.
It Is not unusunl for a Judge In sum
ming up to remurk. In effect, that
after hearing the evidence the Jury
might conclude that the husbuud, In
stead of obtaining damages, should
thank the corespondent for relieving
hliu of a worthless wife, and the Jury
ordinarily reacts to the sentiments
expressed by the Judge becuuse they
heard the evidence when he did.
The general rule seems to be that
the husbund la entitled to damage, If
the wife was a real helpmeet, but to
refuse them if the was a nagger and
a hundlcup Instead of helpmeet The
corespondent Is punished not for
adultery but on the old theory that a
wife Is, or should be, useful tiround the
house nnd In assisting her husbund a
work for their Joint benefit When the
corespondent steuls the wife he de
prlves the husband of her services. If

ll.-ht damages, or none. In one case,
the Jury awnrded the husband a six
pence and In another he got a farth
ing. If those husbands felt splt.-ful
toward their deserting wives they Had
the satisfaction of knowing that the
Jury had publicly branded Hie wives
as worthless.
Extreme feminists are chafing over
the awards against coresponden's
because they say that the uward Is
bused upon the fact that the wife Is
regarded by the law In such suits ni
a chattel, which Is exactly true. If I
man deprived another of a horse und
the evidence showed that the horse
wus too vicious to be employed for
any useful work and was nn expense
and a menace to the welfare of the
rightful owner, the Judge and lury
would he Inclined to disregard the
reul owner's valuation of the horse
and award nominal damages for lis
loss. The comparison with a horse
displeases the feminists, but only a
very few of them have been hiard
complaining about the position In
which women plnce themselves by
breech of promise suits, nnd by suits
on the part of childless women for
alimony.

the Ingtnun case, said Mrs. Ingman
daughter of wealth, hud been a help
