He had gambled in wine, gambled Wall st. stocks, He had “blown in” the $400,000 and lost his wife and child, What was he to do, if the $700. 000 didn't come to him under his father’s will on his 25th birthday? And it didn’t! The courts tied it up, so that bis wife and baby might be provided for. Awful, wasn’t it? But who, do you think, is to blame? Do you blame the father who piled up the hundreds of thousands? Or do you blame the son, who didn’t know any better? Or is the blame to be placed wholly on social and economic conditions, which make such a situation possible and rather common? REV.

But there was no charge against the sister, who now sues for false imprisonment. What ts the poor judre to do? He can’t uphold one of the girls in breaking contracts, and he can't stand around and see the other one imprisoned when no one has any thing against her. Really, it's embarrassing, and none the less so from the fact that one of the twins is married and has a baby two years old, while the other is a maiden lady of retiring disposition Say, the complications of the “Sisters Blazek,” legal and domestic, are too much for us!

It provides that upon conviction he shall be set at work on the highways by the state and his earnings of $1.50 per day paid to his family. It is a humane plan, worthy of wide adoption. It disposes of the objection often made that the husband and father can't get work, It also remedies another of his troubles—the fact that he can’t save the Money he earns. When a man marries and raises a family he assumes a serious obligation. If he won't voluntarily fulfill it, the state has a perfect right to make him do it.
