HAD THE BOSS FORGOTTEN? THE course of the Roosevelt-Platt correspondence we find the Colonel, then Vice President, recommending to the Boss “my old friend Joseph Murray, an exceptionally honest and faithful man in whom I have particular confidence.” To which Mr. Platt replied that Murray hed been removed from Office in the Public Buildings Department because of inefficiency, that “he never went to Albany except to drew his pay,” and that, according to the testimony of his superiors, “he did not render any assistance whatever.” Mr. Platt seems to have been unaware that thie wae the Joe Mur- ray who once wrested the Twenty-first Assembly District from Jake Hoss and sent one Theodore Roosevelt, fresh from Harvard, straight te the State Legislature. These things being eo, why should Murray be called inefficient ‘Why should he be put to the trouble of going to Albany to draw his gay? Why expect such “an exceptionally honest and faithful man” te do anything that he felt it unnecessary to do? —_—_—_—p A DRY SPRING.

He lost Courage and gave a great sigh. “There! I'm glad to hear you sigh.

Jack Silver sighed again, for it was a big tire and, as has been said, he would rather be shot at sunrise than and pump up a tire. I'll forgive you!

As the host, who does his own driving, turns into a road that is pro- fusely marked as leading to the party's objective point, raise your voice in protest, thus: “Why on earth do you take this bum road, Ed? If only you'd turn tp the left you'd find it much prettier and easier going. When will motorists learn not to be a flock of geese and waddle whichever way the sign pointe? Be original.

WOMAN playwright’s proposal thgt wives be put on a salary, emphasizes the fact that under the New York law a woman is not entitled to one penny in actual money from her husband during his lifetime. He is logally obliged to provide food, clothes, lodging and medical attendance for her, but he need not give her so much as a nickel in cash. However, the proceeds of any work which she performs under his roof are his if he chooses to lay claim to them. If she takes in washing he may coliect and pocket the pay for it. A Judge of the Supreme Court has ruled that a joint bank account representing the earnings of the husband and the savings of the wife is nevertheless the sole property of the husband, These thinge are unjust, and their injustice is not affected by the fact that in practice the husband hereabouts often gives his wife all the money he can afford—sometimes more, A number of thoughtful women have urged the passage in New York of a couumunity property act, making all real or personal prop- erty acquired by either husband or wife after the wedding day the joint property of both, Marriage would become a genuine business partnership under such a law, and in fairness to women it should be assed, Meanwhile, in present circumstances, it might be as well to leave jout of the marriage service that little joker, “With ALL my worldly te
