William is a small, neat clerk, whose meek coun- tenance contradicts his fiery red hair. Mra, Hussey is a fine type of the did woman; tall, robust, with a ‘keen blue eye and a front like Jove to threaten and command. When the complaint was read that he had “abused ‘and struck her, Magistrate Freschi rubbed his eyes, scrutinized it again and again, and at last asked: “Madame, did this man actually etrike you?” I did, Your Honor—" Gould be- ~gan. *“Hush, you—you wicked man!"

And when I talked with Judge Geismar I found him ready to defend his position with logic, sincerity na emphasis, ' “A wife ought to be mistress of her home,” he declared, “You can put me down aying that with all the earne: my power. When the hard work and respon- sibility involved in the regulation hold affaires reste upon an, authority should also be hers. My wife is the boss in my house. “In this particular case of the Har- woods, the husband has been out of work for a long time. The wife, a plucky, industrious fittle woman, has turned to and opened a boarding- house, with the proceeds of which she has managed to support Mer children, her husband and herself. Yet, he complains because his wife's alster talks to him in a way he doe lke! “1 said in court that in addition to & woman's general right to be mis- tress of her own home, Mrs. Har- wood might justly complain against interference in her place of business, wince she was conducting @ business in her home.

My experience in this court goes to show that when the woman has authority in the home and in the expenditure of the home income, there's ething put aside for a rainy day. “You wauld have the woman's au- thority extend over the ig eae budget?” I asked. “You would have every husband make his wife a defi- nite allowance?” THE BANK BOOK THAT TEATHES RESPONSIBILITY, | “I would do more than that,” de- |clared Judge Geismar.
