Chicago, I SUBSCRIPTION RATES By Carrier and Outside State r complair The Knocker The knocker is overloquacious, but he is not always one vho has something to say. His large blocks of talk are not nec- essarily great chunks of wisdom. He is frequently one who vants something and wants it badly. He has an ax to grind. He who hammers the rich generally has the acquisitive fac- ilty overdeveloped in his cranium. He wants what the rich n has, but seems to lack the us to make it. It is on what he calls his mind! The social reformer is not always interested 1 the masses; he may be obsessed by himself. One of the social ay vriters of the day is so unsocial that he was asked by his * friends to leave town so he could be elected. More than one scamp, who orates with seraphic smile in of public, is a cross-cut saw in private.

There is an old saying that j one can lead a horse to water, but cannot make it drink. But ¢. Wives, it appars, are more tractable. A horse will refuse to ets drink merely because it doesn’t want to. True, the horses never y have promised to love, honor and obey, as most wives do. Still, : it is cheering to mere man to learn that, in spite of the rumors, : doubtless unfounded, which are going around to the effect that z wives are getting less and less willing to explicitly follow the 1 directions of the heads of the houses,” wives still are far more 1 submissive than horses, not to mention motor cars. Empires < may fall and kingdoms sway, but still the despotism of the ) home survives. It would be interesting to know what would have happened * if that same husband had ordered his wife never to powder her i nose or not to bob her haid. It will appear to many a husband i! whose wife persisted in bobbing, despite what he thought were 5 his wishes, until his mind was deftly changed for him, that any 3 woman who was dead set against drinking could have found some way out of the difficulty without appealing to the courts. 1 But even such will not dare to argue that all wivyes—or all uusbands, for that matter—haye liorse sense. Yes, this case makes it plain thaty even in this liberated household despotism still exists—even though, in a good cases, it is in reverse.

Other perplexing questions. have been, “How much does the build- ing weigh?” “Why did .they build it‘on this particular site;” “Do they need such a big. building? “Is the liquor confiscated under the Vol, stead act kept in the’ building?” “Haye senators the right to have their pictures printed on eurrency if they want to?” “What‘part of the building does the president live in?” “Ig it. true, as reported in) the pa- pers, that ‘Congressional fights’ ure held?"
