Rome, May 9.—A discussion of “How to find a husband after the war,” is being carried on in the columns of the Piccolo. Intense in- terest is indicated by the number of letters received from young women readers who confess their fears that there will not be enough men to go around. One of these declares her intention to emigrate to the United States in the hope of finding a hus- band. Another points out that the un- married men remaining after the war who have suffered deeply by its hard- ships will be inclined to select as wives those women unspoiled by the new freedom which the absence of men at the front has given women, that the women to find a husband will have to be modest and obedient. “Girls now-a-days are becoming too frivilous,” she states, “‘and such girls do not make good wives.” This same young woman then quotes the counsel of the wise Arab, Sidi Ahmed Ben Arun, to his daughter about to be married, telling her that the success- ful wife “must be as earth under the feet of her husband; appear to obey him in all things; never offend hls vanity, or his ears with too much talking; and never contradict him. So shalt thou become both master | mistress in my house.” | L e Best creamery butter, 37¢ a Ib., 2 3-4 1bs. for $1. Russell Bros.—advt. NEW GOLD STANDARD. (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.)

Itis the outward sign of nervousness, neurasthenia perhaps, with its characteristic symptoms of worry, headaches and sleeplessness. Overwork, grief, undue excitement, the late hours and nervous strain of a strenuous social season, lack of out-of- door exercise, any or all of these may be responsible for the trouble but the most common cause at this season of the year is the grip. ‘Whatever the cause, if you feel the need of more streng.h try the great non-alcoholic tonic, Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.

Los Angeles, May 9.—Unique features are involved in the Chafor suit, a test case that was brought by George and Edward Chafor, the hus- band and minor son of Edith E. Chafor, who was killed May 24, 1913, in the collapse of a municipal pier at Long Beach, Cal. The accident was known as the Empire Day Disaster, since it occurred during a celebration Tesidents of the late Queen Victoria's birthday. Many Law Suits, In the collapse of the pier forty persons were killed outright and a rumber died afterwards from their injuries. In addition to the Chafor .case, 187 suits for damages were filed ir the superior court, but trial of them was delayed by agreement un- til the state supreme court should de- cide the test case. The sums in the | 187 cases total $3,500,000, Damages of $15,000 were asked for in the Chafor case and after a trial lasting twenty-one days, a verdict of $7,500 was awarded the plaintiffs by a jury in the superior court. Keynote Vibration. The theory of the “keynate” vi- bration was advanced by the city of Long Beach in its defense. The ‘‘key- note” theory is an application of the traditional assertion that a violin | player under certain circumstances | by playing the “keynote” of a great building can cause it to collapse. In theory, the defense argued that a group of Scotch bag- pipers leading the Empire Day cele- bration parade stopped on the pier | and struck the dangerous keynote while the crowd, swaying to the considerably more than doubled since the war began. The earnings were also far in ex- cess of all previous voars. amounted to ,000,000, or than twice those of 1914 to a law recently passed a war tax was laid upon the bank, in addition to the portion of the earnings falling to the treasury under older laws. Thus the treasury gets $47,500,000 of the earn- ings, whereas the stockhclders get only $3,840,000 or somewhat less than | more special pro- for 1914, !
