' Every hour some new war charity scheme is launched some new committee formed, and all of them at once begin to solicit money. They are subject to no law, no regulation, no restriction, no accounting. This is the straight road to scandal. Financing at its worst is found in philanthropy. irresponsibility, continues through carelessless and flagrant breach of trust. For protection of the public and for the benefit of many meri-! torious undertakings there must be some fori of governmental super- vision over al] war relief organizations. They must be compelled to incorporate like other societies, made amenable to law, required to file reports, supervised to check waste and extravagance and obliged to follow business methods in operations. | Gov. Whitman and well organized committees will do well to! bring this subject to the attention of the Legislature in the forth- coming special session, before unpleasant disclosures check our char-| iteble impulse and hurt the noble cause.

Whiskey and other spirituous liquors are skyrocket-, ‘ing as the\thirsty rush to lay in a supply against dry days coming | Whatever the ultimate result of the prohibition legisiation now pending in Congress, one thing seems assured. Whiskey | Is doomed. No hoary headed old sinner that by depravity and deceit had maintained himself for centuries ever went down witli fewer mourners than Baron Booze. It may linger a little longer until the 220,000,000 gallons now in bond are drunk, but the Black Bottle has | had a paralytic stroke and its end is only delayed. \ Before both houses of Congress can agree on their differences in the pending Food Bill, the variegated degrees of prohibition proposed will be made a tennis ball between opposing ends of the Capitol. | Whiskey has been pretty definitely knocked out of bounds, but there} Temain two disputed issues: ne 1, Shall the hard Iquor now on hand he stroyed! 2. Shall beer and wines be continued, or shall they, too, be barred and the country made bone dry? No ban id on the selling and drinking of liquor by the pend ing bill. Only manufacture is forbidden, in order to conserve food supply. This is prohibition of an entirely different kind thar that advocated by moral reformers.

A man might make this life a Heaven-on-earth for himself, Without the slightest trouble, or exertion, or expense, I wonder why so few of them are inspired to try! For instance, The other evening, HE came in and said, iNT. by the Prews Publishing Co “Gee Whiz! you're a marvel At fixing up a house. It's simply GREA’ And, all of a sudden, I didn’t feel tired any more, But completely Pollyanna’d up, and just “glad, gi glad!” And I forgot make, About the hall boy, and the ice man, and the headache I had, And hurried into my prettiest frock, and went out to a show with Him, And had the time of my life! And I thought, how wonderful it would be, When ANY man comes home in the evening, And finds a new pillow on the couch, or a new arrangement of pictures in the library, or new hangings in the guest-room, If he would ONLY say, “Gee whiz! This place looks dandy!" Or Or something like that. No wife would EVER forget it! And she'd joyfully wear her fingers to the bone Making curtains and cushions and polishing picture-frames. Or, when the eggs are served in a new way for breakfast. Or even in the old way, If he'd ONLY exclaim—though he perjured himself. “My! What a knack you have for cooking, darlin, that, Or, when she appears with a new flower in her hat, or a new colli on her last year's frock, Or even with nothing new on, except a fresh coat of powder on her nose, If he'd ONLY look at her, and tell her how stunning she was looking, Or that she was getting prettier every day Wouldn't it give a woman “that grand and glorious fceling ‘That the cartoonist talks about? This place looks dandy! I'll tell you, id meen mow LAne all the complaints I had been going to . “What a marvel you are! for HIM or something like And wouldn't it inspire her to live UP to his opinion of her With 2}! the enthusiasm that was in her? It would! And he'd never again hear that “I'm-so-tired-why-don't-you-find-it- yourself” stuff. But alas! The poor dear, simple, blundering, old bumble-bee always comes In tired, or worried, or grouchy, And the only thing he looks for is something that ought and isn't, Or something that oughtn't to be there, that is, And, if he DOES see anything different about the place, He simply grunts, “Great Scott! Housecleaning again? NOW, oy smoking things?”—or something like that, And it shrivels up all a woman's eoul, and hope and spontaneity. And she has to go about reminding herself, all next day, ‘That “he IS a good man, and that he DO! ‘'T mean it, pays the rent, anyway!" But, oh how different life would be for And soft-soap SO cheap!
