DICTATING TROM
CONTEMPTIBLE, M'LISS SAYS
Man Ordering His Wife's Life After He Is Dead,
Threatening Disinheritance If She
Marries, Is Brute
in I,, i -LTfcVfeR
Is the love of life mora forcibly demonstrated, t believe, than In the
SS Jtlha of -wills, people mako In their futllo endcavorto maintain a hold on the
5 sttrilrs of this world and to dictate the lives of the living after they themselves
iiva'rono.
, S I The manner In which Richard' Harding Davis has left his money, one-half to
, IMwtfe, with the proviso that she forfeit It If she marries again, has been Uie
, 'bjcct Of much heated discussion, and or once the sexes seem to bo agreed on
Jk liven subject, A mart is aveelrtsh bruta who expects to put a price on tho
Jaawtlble futtira happiness of his wife by
-And a, legacy that has strlmrs tied to It Is
j In so far as Davis himself was twice married not as a widower tho second
time, but as a divorced man such a limitation on his wife comes with parties
Mrly bad grace. No matter what a man's theories aro regarding tho next world,
H la safe to say that no particular satisfaction can accrue to him for having
ejneed what might como' to be an obnoxious restriction on somo one whom he
loved Very dearly In this world.
It Is bad enough to havo to recognize and tolerate tho proprietary male In
try) living, but when ho tries to extend his proprietorship after he has died, to
hold tho reins from the grave as It were, one can only marvel at his egotism and
Belflshne.ss. , . '
The wise Mohammed' believed that nil mon should marry aa often as they
-found themselves wlfe-or wlvo-less, but there were four classes of women
rgatnst whom he warned them. They were:
A yearncr, or a woman who has children by a former husband and wishes
to get everything for them from the present one.
A deploror ono who Is constantly deploring tho loss of her first husband
Urid ntatlng his vlrtuos to tho tflsparagoment of the present Incumbent.
A backbiter, or ono who Is kind to her husband's faco and behind his back
accuses htm of mean traits.
A toadstool', or a beauty who Is lazy and tyrannical and spends his substance
for personal adornment.
Motiammedj evldontly did not consider women of sufllclent Importance to
advise them against thcr kind of men they ought not to marry or he certainly
would havo had something to say about the husband who endeavors to assert and
maintain his ownership from tho grave. Thcso aro .the kind of men who, if their
widows do marry ngaln, hope .they will be of tho deploror class.
The human heart would boil tight little compartment, indeed, If thcro woro
room In it for tho love of only ono man, and certainly because a woman, after
a. decent Interval of grief, marries again,, there Is no Justifiable reason for calling
Vim- rnilmm nnel fickle. I believe even if I had no inclination to marry a second
'I time, ( a man tried to dominate mo from trie- other sldo of the Styx by threat
fining mo with disinheritance If I did, I should bo sorely tempted. And I'm
V euro many women will agree with me.

For Tired Feet
"Some time ago a Cornerlte asked for
something to relieve tired feet. An ex

me that all German soldiers are required
to soak their feet once a week in coal oil.
They then remain barefooted until the
oil has dried In. If German army ef

PROCRASTINATION GREAT ENEMY
IN TREATMENT' OF CANCER
By WILLIAM
HEBE Is a, Utter from a reader. It
speaks for itclf;t
"My mother has just died from cancer
of the breast" I have a lump the nlzo' of
a hen's egg in the right breast which' Is
very painful. We have a splendid family
doctor, who operated upon mother after
she had had trouble with the breast for
many years. The doctor Is very anxious
to operate on me, but I have no faith In
either the knife or X-ray (my mother had
X-ray treatment after her operation).
"I have heard some doctors can draw
them out. Our doctor says they are fakes,
In the meantime, what Is to become of me?
"What I want is honest, disinterested
advice. I discovered the lum'p about 18
months ago, but I did not toll the doctor
about It till last week. I will be very
grateful If you will answer through the
paper."
Playing with fire Is a gentle pastime
compared with the risk this woman is
assuming. What kind of psychology is it
that explains her procrastination? She
states that she has a splendid family doc
tor, and that he has urged her to submit
to operation. But she wants honest, dis
interested advice Where can she obtain
such advice, if not from thatlsamo family
doctor? He has given her the only advice
an honest doctor would dare to give In
such a case. Would she look to the char
latan who "draws them out" for honest
advice? No paBte, ray, diet, medicine or
treatment of any kind whatever can offer
even a fighting chance for cancer of
the breast. There Is only one hope of
cure, and that -is prompt and radical sur
gery. Procrastination, not surgery, brings
the disappointments. A week of delay
may turn down the balance against a
cure.
We have personally observed scores of
Instances In which a certain type of "doc
tor" save the name I attempted to "draw
It out," and while the poor, deluded victim
often imagined the sloughing off of a mass
of the cancer meant that cure was as
sured, Invariably the result was disas
trous. Not even the knife, which at least
does Its work in a cleanly way and never
causes blood poisoning, can offer a reason
able chance of cure unless the nodes or

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Treatment of Tuberculosis
What Is a good diet for a tuberculosis pa
tient? Is milk good? Should it be taken
cojd, cow-warm, or boiled? Are raw eggs
better than soft-boiled eggs? Is woolen or
cotton underwear preferable? How much
exercise should he tnke? What Is the doc
tor's name that 'claims he has n tubercu
losis cure?
Answer The diet should Include a full
vnrlety of all ordinary foods. Milk Is
good, however you like it best. Raw eggs
are in no sense preferable to cooked eggs,
In general, woolen underwear Is better;
light weight, knitted goods. The amount
of exercise should be determined largely
by tho temperature; when fever Is present,
rest Is the thing. The doctor's name Is

FERTILIZING THE
HOME GARDEN
By JOHN BARTRAM
Proper care and nourishment must be
given the soil. Plants quickly draw on
the elements they need, and these must be
replenished from time to time.
Growing things derive their nutrition
from the air and the soil. Thfe first can
not be governed by man, but substances
In the soil, from which pnnts derive their
food, may be supplied.
Nitrogen exists in three distinct forms,
viz., as organic matter, as ammonia and
as nitrates, it Is the most expensive fer
tilizer. Nitrates afford the most readily avail
able forms. Thi most common are nitrate
of soda and nitrate of potash (saltpetre)
Phosphoric acid comes front materials
called phosphates. It does not exist alone,
but In combination, most commonly as
phosphate of lime In the form of bones,
rock phosphate and phosphatlc slag.
Superphosphate In untreated phos
phates the phosphoric acid Is Insolubio In
water nnd not readily available to plants.
Superphosphate Is prepared from these by
grinding and treating with sulphuric nctd,
which makes the phosphoric acid available.
Superphosphates are called acid phos
phates.
Potash appears In a number of forms,
but chiefly as chlorld or muriate and as
sulphate. All forms are freely soluble in
water. Wood ahes and cotton-hull ashes
are sources of potash.
Generoui nunntltles of enriching1 ele
ments should annually be applied to do
pieted noil, thoroughly incorporated.
Stable manure should be Used to Improve
the mechanical condition of the soil, nnd
commercial fertilizer to supply potash,
nltiogen or phosphoric acid. On a quarter
acre garden 10 to 12 cords of manure Is
not too much to'-plow or dig In with 100
to 200 pounds of a well-balanced fertilizer,
harrowed or raked In, Crops may bo
stimulated during growth by two or three
supplementary dressings of fertilizer, ap
plied at the late of 100 pounds per acre
at each application.
Nitrogen speeds early and succulent
growth. Potash hardens growth nnd
throws vigor into fruit or flower. Phos
phoric acid aids In nutrition. Influences
mnturlty and color. Lime renders inert
plant food available for feeding roots.
A complete fertilizer contains nitrogen,
phosphorlo ncld and potash. Lime is a
necessary ndjunct for less frequent use.
It will not pay tho amateur to mix his
own fertilizer. A wcll-balnnced soil ration
containing all the elements enn be bought
from reliable dealers at $2 to S3 per 100
pound bag. This can be broadcasted be
fore plowing or mixed in hills nnd drill.
before planting, or fclfted along rows after
planting. It should not bo allowed to
come Into direct contact with roots, seeds
or foliage.
Boll acidity is the chief chemical enemy
to plant growth. Sour soil is sterile. Alr
Blackcd llrno, lightly broad-casted. Is the
best sweetener of acid soils nnd pulverizer
of caky soils.
Humus Is the great natural source of
fertility In vegetation. Leaf mold or any
well rotted animal or vegetable matter
mnkes humus.
Stable manure, either horse or cow,
contributes warmth, moisture and humus.
Ic Is an undenatured soil nutrient, but
well-aged barnyard manure Is difficult
to get. "Green" manure must be avoided;
It Is full of weed seeds and lacking In
qualities held by the rotted. .,
Humus-supplying preparations, consist
ing of dried Bheop and stable manures
which aro wholesome soil foods. Inex
pensive nnd unobjectionable. These aro
on tho market In a number of reliable
patent preparations.
Nitrogen-gathering bacteria with which
to Inoculate seeds of the clovers and
legumes may also be purchased at a low
cost Bone ,meal Is a most valuable all
rqund fertilizer.
Hardwood ashes and soot from chim
neys, fireplaces and staves are excellent
foods for the soli. Sifted coal ashes soften
heavy soils.
A compost pile may be started now of
leaves, ashes, barnyard manure, rubbish,
etc., and will prove valuable for the gar
den. This should be kept In a big box,
covered, if the supply and garden are
both small. If ron-n permits, build a
pit with rough boards. Sift some lime
over occasionally, and; stir the mixture
now and then Keep the compost heaps
always covered.
Ip applying a commercial fertilizer, cal
culate one pound for a plot 10 by 43 feet
(13$ squaro feet), for a 100-pound per
acre application; one pound for plot 10
by 22 feet (218 squaro feet), for a 200
pound per acre application; one pound
for plot 10 by Htf feet (H5 square feet),
for a 300-pound to an acre application.
