A RIGHT WE DON'T USE. A St.
Louis judge "has just handed down a
decision which will go a long way
toward putting him on the political
scrap pile when the women of Mis
souri get the vote.
He said' that a man has the right
(legal) to find fault with his wife's
clothes, if her clothes don't meet with'
his idea of what she should wear.
Possibly he has, we wqn't argue
man's rights, but we advise those St.
Louis now, and not a few misguided
married men are throwing up their
hats and yelling "hurrah" every time
they think about it, -
Yes, it may be a part of a married
man's rights, but we'd avise those St.
Louis men to stop and pause some
considerable while before they start
exercising this particular right
We well know what would -happen
to us if we told our better half what
we thought of the latest styles in
hats, boots and dresses she is laying
in store for the late spring and sum
mer season. Oh, yes, we've seen
them all, and.heard several volumns
about their very up-to-dateness but
we are a wise husband; we take our
"rights" carefully by the neck- and
sink it in the well, first seeing that
the stone attached is of good and
sufficient heftiness.
Then we'd go on reading our even
ing newspaper.
Ah, no, Mr. St Louis judge,, you 1
don't know what you. are taHdngcf
about You're right, you're wrong.S
and you'll find it out after you have
trotted awhile in double harness, ia

WHAT A SNAP! Ten jitney busu
drivers were fined $10 each in-Lostf
Angeles for speeding past schools afr
exceeding 12 miles per hour. If we I
can have the job of nailing all the pri?3
vate autos and street cars which
commit that offense on a commis
sion basis, here's our application.
But maybe only jitneys count
SHORT ONES
New YorJf and "L6s Angeles being
connected by telephone we hope they
don't start an. argument over the wire
as to which is, the better town in
which to live or the- cost.of war will
seem inconsequential by comparison
with the bill. -
Milliners in convention have de
cided that it is psychology that
. causes women to pay $25 1 for $3
worth of hat Someone ought to get
out an injunction restraining them
fro mteaching psychology in our col
leges. While beyond doubt the system of
paying Pullman porters is wrong yet
it is amazingly true that Pullman
porters are the most polite, attentive,
courteous and obliging class of men
working on railways."
An Illinois woman was granted a
divorce- because her husband let the
furnace fire go out Now will you
married men get up' when she kicks
you and says the house is cold?
