' SHATTERED DREAMS The divorce courts tell some lurid tales of martiaUn felicities. Generally it is the woman who has the pitiful tale to tell of love grown cold, of the husband seeking pleasure in the society of other women, of neglect, of cruelty and of abuse. Sometimes it is several years after the promise to love, cherish and protect is made, before she who was given the promise is neither loved, nor cherished; and the protection she needs is from her prom ised protector. If one did not become hardened by hear ing day after day the pitiful tales told by neglected wives, of cruelty, of abuse, of inhuman treatment, the sentiment of the Frenchman who said: "The more I see of men the better I like dogs," would be cheerfully indorsed by the reporters and others whose business requires attendance on the divorce courts. It is perhaps fortunate for human ity that women do not hear the testimony in divorce cases ; ior n mey aia uiy giviny m max x mc wuum ucw""! a rarity. That is it would be such if it were not for the fact that woman is trusting and optimistic. She believes nothing of this kind will come to her, and yet that is just what these whose lives are bared in tne court rooms as a necessary preliminary to a final separation thought when they gave up family, home and friends to join their fortunes with the one man wno naa won tneir aiiecuons. It must be in bitterness of spirit when it is all over and the dream shattered, that the woman with two or three little ones who came to her when life was yet all bright ness, lays bare the inwardness of her married life, and still clinging to her children and his, asks the privilege of working for and providing for them. This is one part of the requests that is seldom controverted oy tne man in the case. It sure is pretty bad, but so long as men will betray and woman trust the same pitiful stories will be told and re peated even unto the end. THE HODZIMA PUZZLE One thing the food control will accomplish is the com pelling of merchants, dealers and cold storage plants to call their products by their right name, "cold storage goods." Beginning November first all cold storage plants were placed under license and required to report regular ly to the Food administrator on all foods stored. The .sole exception to this rule is where products have not been in cold storage for more than 30 days. All others must be labeled "Cold Storage Goods' The penalty for the retail dealer disobeying the law m this respect and also in others such as making an unreasonable profit is that the licensed dealer is forbidden to sell to all such, and as they cannot purchase except from a licensed dealer, they must either obey the law or be refused the right to purchase a new stock of goods. One of the objects of the law is to pre vent the making of unreasonable profits through rising markets and the holding or storing of goods to accomplish this result. It may be stated too, that the present system is but the preliminary stage. If the public observes the rules, none more drastic may be made, for with a strict observance of the law, there will be enough for all. The trouble is and will continue to be, that there is one element that holds to the opinion that because they have the money to pay for whatever they want, they are en titled to have it. They are laboring under a grievous mis take, for conditions require some small sacrifice in the way of curtailing the use of certain foods and this not by the poor alone, but by Rockefeller as well as Lazarus. If the rules of the Food Administration are not observed generally there will be resort to the card system and Mr. Food Hog will have to keep his feet out of the trough. He must either keep out voluntarily or get slapped over the snout. The inability of some people to judge themselves as they judge others is nowhere better illustrated than in the threats made to kill Mrs. Hodzima, who has been giv ing her imbecile baby opiates to relieve its sufferings, even though eventually the treatment will cost its life. Science says the baby if it should live will be a hopeless imbecile and perhaps a great sufferer all the time. Now some folks who point to the scriptural injunction "Thou shalt not kill," as the rule which the heart broken mother must follow, at the same time threaten to kill her if she persists in giving the baby drugs. The command "Thou shalt not kill," seems to be' over looked when it conies to any killing these fanatics might do. They .arrogate to themselves the right to kill the mother without seeming to think that might beas great an offense as allowing an imbecile suffering child to die and end its sufferings. Queer old world full of queer peo ple isn't it? Hugh Gibson who was secretary of the American lega tion at Brussels has written the story of the German in vasion as it appeared to him, and this story is soon to ap pear in several of the larger newspapers as a serial. It should, one would think, make intensely interesting read ing, and yet well Girard's story proved a disappoint ment in many respects although it made public many things unknown to most of us. The trouble with it was that it dealt lareelv with affairs between this country and Germany most of which had been told and retold in the SXh7.

Bob had been west again, and he and John Kendall, were discussing his trip in the library. As usual I sat in thtf living room, and through the open door eaught snatches of their conversa tion. John was talking when by inter est became aroused by something he said anent a woman. "I never shall forget the first time I saw her", he said, "I met her at a social affair something as you did," he remarked to Bob, "I thought her very beautiful." ' ' She is beautiful, ' ' Bob replied slow ly, but it is not entirely her physical beauty which attracts, she seems to rad iato a spiritual beauty, a beauty of soul as well as body. Her personality is won derful. She is the most restful, and at the same time the most entertaining woman I have ever met a perfect com panion," he added, after a moment. ".Better be careful, .Hob, 1 should label her 'dangerous' after that des cription." "She would be dangerous and more" here I missed a sentence, "but I owe allegiance to Margaret." Many husbands forget" again I lost part of John's reply. "I think her very talented, she will do great things some day. r 3 t rt i it 11 w f- t l f i A X-rV S r--- i t . . j. pica's bgsxe ssce rcnsn ax BABY'S.- iHARRY'S MABELS MOTHPt QAQ& SmmA reserves shoes, sheds moisture, and won't rub ol?.

"A Sweet Bunch of Onions": gone before bore only reference to her as an authoress. X had eard Bob disclaim any other interest in her at least I had so understood the conversation, and ho had spoken of his allegiance to me. So I gave my entire attention to some intricate embroidery I was doing, only wishing that John Kendall would go so that I migt have Bob to myself. It may perhaps be hard to under stand my viewpoint. Yet I honestly be lieve there are many women who feel "Just A-wearing of You"; "Neath the Elephant's Trunk"; "For the Love of Mike"; "Bed Tongues of Green Kago" "The Hate Philtre or a Piece of Cheese"; "The Bhoe-Laco Mender"; "The House of a Thousand Bricks"; "A Family Row or Please Omit Follow ers"; "Bod With Hate or White With Fear"; "Time and Again"; "The Pick o'Yune"; "Mary Had a Little Yam"; "Snowed Hail"; "Odds, Bod ikins"; "Each Day Each Hour Each the same proprietory right in their hus-j Minute"; "Percy Sopht's Great Oath bands that I did; who want to manage or The Deuce"; "A Jet Bing or The their lives according to the rules they Black Joe Minstrels", etc., etc.; THE SCOLDING ERA I read the monthly magazines: they tell me I'm a traitor foul, if I don't cut out pork and beans, and live oh slaw and roasted owl. Perhaps the magazines are right, per haps their counsel is sublime; they have a noble goal in sight but why abuse me all the time? The gifted speaker comes to speak, in our town hall, whose lights are dim ; he says I am a knave and freak, if I don't quite agree with him. He says I am too base and mean to look my own self in the eyes, because I'm burning gasoline, when countless folks are needing pies. He's doubtless right: but why get sore, and call me names to beat the Dutch? For hungry folk I'd do much more, if I were not abused so much. We want your store of hard-earned gold, to beat the kaiser's wicked wiles, and so we rant and chide and scold, instead of wear ing winning smiles. We wish you to economize, and live on prunes and salted hoss, and to encourage you we rise, and tell you you're' a total loss. You hand out seven hard earned bones to help things out on foreisrn shore; we roast you then, in strident tones, because you don't give seven more. This scolding stunt will have to stop if we wTould see good feeling live; the termagant's barbaric yawp won't make men strip their rolls and give. i '.: ? i - ..' i. -., ' Waconda Literary Society Holds Interesting Meeting (Capital .Tourmtt Special Service) AVncomla, Or., Xov. tl. The Wacon da Litorary society met at the school house Saturday evouing, Nov. 17. The mooting was opened with the Bulging of "America."

Occasionally I had felt that perhaps Elsie was right in her estimate of Bob. That he was of a different temperament than I had tought wen I married him. Ho would become so excited when he talked to John Kendall or his other friends. Sometimes- he would pace up and down while he gesticulated ner vously. His imagination would at times run riot in a way that I with my quiet er, colder temperament could not fol low. But I usually blamed his excit ment upon the people he Was with, their influence, instead of upon him. I see now that I was deliberately trying to crush out all personality, all originality my husband possessed. But at the time I thought I was entirely justified in all that I did. As I look back upon those years after my boys were born the only comfort I gleam is that I was honest in the stand I took; honest, if mistaken. It had been a very disappointing win ter for me, and I had not hesitated to so express myself to Bob. Surely, I thought, a wife has a right to express her displeasures over things in her hus- uaiid's conduct which she disapproves. But Bob called it nagging, and while he conceded that I did not nag for the things which caused many women to make complaint; he claimed that to be nagged because he omitted to assure me constantly of his love and because he preferred the society of congenial friends to sitting alone with me, was as bad, or worse. Bob was at this time, as kind, as in dulgent as ever. But he seemed ner vous, and was very irritable. This was always more noticeable after one of his western trips; and consequently I was the more opposed to his business venture with John Kendall than I should other wise have been. Then too, I often thot ho avoided me, I would almost say he shrank from my caresses. He surelv never offered me endearments unless I asked for them when he would respond mechanically. I was terribly unhappy over it, but did not know what to do to remedy matters. I would not concede myself in the wrong and give my con sent to Bob's desire to entertain and Vinl.it PMtrtti nmi V.illi, Pftttura.,, o.l Mr. Frank Felton, Ward and Miles Bus-! b "tained by the crowd of people sell and Henry Staford. ?f f,1 disapproved; neither would Mr. and Mrs. A.
