Syracuse. N. Y., Feb. 12.—Mrs.
K. H. Morrell, of this city, presi
dent of the New York State Mothers'
Assembly, Is In receipt of a letter
from Presd**iit Roosevelt. In which
he defines the places of the father
and mother In the home. The let
ter wag written In response to one ■
asking suggestions for the council
of mothers recently held at Newburg
and the State convention to be held
In the fall. The President says:
“For one of your topics, how
wotild it do to speak of the place of
the father in tho home?
Now and then people forget that
exactly ad the mother must help
the breadwinner by being a good
housewife, so the father in his turn. I
If he Is worth his salt, must In ■
every way back up the mother in
helping bring up the chldren.
“After all, the prime duties are
elements and no amount of culti-I
vatlon, no amount of business force
and sagacity will make the average
man a good citizen unless that aver
age man is a good husband and
father and unless he is a successful
breadwinner. Is tender and consider
ate with his wife and both loving,
and wise (for to be loving and
weak and foolish l8 utterly ruinous)
In dealing with the children.
“I think it a crime for the woman
to shirk her primary duties, to
shrnk from being a good wife and
mother. Of course, the woman
should have the same right as the
man to train her mind, to better
herself, and occasionally a woman
can, and ought to, follow some
racial vocation in addition to (ncv
I” substitution for) her home
work.
But Just as the highest work for
the normal man is work for his wife
and children, so the highest work
for the normal woman is the work
of the home, where, Heavn knows.
i
l
the work is ample enough.
But I also feel she can do the
best work in her home if she has
healthy outside interests and occu
pations in addition, and I most firmly
believe that she cannot do her full
duty by her husband if she occu
pies a merely servile attitude toward
him or submits to ill treatment, at#l
that Bhe is quite as bad a mother
if weak and foolish as if hard and
unloving.

DOOLEY ON WIVES
AND HUSBANDS.
No gintloman Bhud wallop hla1
wlfo, an’ no gintleman wild. I’m '
In favor lv havin’ wife beaters
whipped, an’ I’ll go father an’ Ray!
that ’twud be a good thing to have
Ivry marrld man scoorged about
wanst a month. As a bachelor man
who rules entirely be love. I’ve
splnt r>0 j^eara envestlgatln’ what
Hogan calls the martial state,
an’ I’ve come to th’ conclusion that
ivry man uses vi’lence to his wife.
Ho may not beat her with a table
leg, but he coerces her with his
mind. He can put a savage remark
to th’ pint lv th' Jaw with more
lastin’ efTect thin a right hook. He
may not dhrag her around be th’
hair iv her head, but he dhrags her
bo her sympathies, her fears an’ her
nnxieties. As a last racoorse ho
beats her be doin’ thingR that make
her pity him. An’ th' ladies, Oawd
bless thlm, like it.
In her heart ivry woman likes th’
sthrong arm. Ye very seldom see
th’ wife lv a hlbitrhooj wife beater
lavin’ him. Th’ husband that gives
his wife a vllot bokay is as apt to
lose her as th’ husband that gives
her a vilet eye. Th’ man that breaks
th’ furniture, tips over th' table,
kicks th’ dog an’ pegs th’ lamp at
th’ iady of his choice is seen no
more often in our justly popylar
divorce coortfl thin th' man who
comes home arly to feed th’ canary.
Manny a skilful mandolin player has
been onable to prevent his wife
fr’m lopin’ with a prize fighter.
PREMATURE.
Are not these reports of a ruined
peach crop a trifle premature? Why
not first give us a chance to worry
over the strawberry chop?—Wash
ington Post.
rtrito uo gift of whatever sutn
can justify the condition that per
mits a man to amase a fortune so
colossal, there Is to be seen in vast
$lfts like thig a mitigating quality
of the evils which the accumula
tion of vast fortunes produces. It
suggests the Idea of trusteeship, and
In a small way chares withe the
generation from which the toll has
been taken that makes the fortune.
