There was 4 vol ume of shrewd phll .osophy and knowl edge of human nature in the squire's homely ad vice. The story of S a 1 1 1 e Reynolds brought It all back to me again very vividly the dther day. Sallle has lost her husband In a scandal that was the nine days' talk of her community. He had left town with another woman . Tounr nnd handsomer woman, leaving his wife of ten years behind to face the lltuatlon as best she might. Sail fe was not a woman of Initiative and MMlullon. She was essentially a woman of 'the old school, with as little knowledge of the ways of tho world as a child. She was not equipped really for any posi tion that would earn her livelihood, but through the Influence of friends she was finally given a political clerkship paying enough for her physical needs, That was two years ago. Today Sall)e Reynolds Is a sour, cynical oman of thirty-live, with a chip on her shoulder against all humanity, and men In Particular, and eternally convinced that life is one long deceit and a constant. battle afalnst Impossible odds. In her rusty black dress, with Its skirts fairly bristling, Sallle told me her story, her face stiff and forbidding, her voice n dull, level monotone. She couldn't see the real explanation of her tragedy, and I knew that I couldn't en lighten her, no matter how much I might try. But It was simple and commonplace enough. Sallle Reynolds had failed to meet the test of the morning nfter. "Jack always kept nagging at me," she complained bitterly. "Ho wondered why I couldn't keep looking pretty and sweet ill the time why I couldn't spend all my day In primping He never stopped to think that a married woman has a home something else on her mind besides curl Ing her hair and powdering her nose and keeping up with the styles. "When he came home at night," she Vma ?'u"he would,! at me and ask If I didn't have any other dress, and wonder why my face wasvso red-when I had been spending hours In my housework and in getting a good dinner ready for hlml I always got up before he did In the mom Ing. and he never left the house without a good breakfast and I know how to cook, I can tell you I "But. instead of thanking me and show ing some appreciation, he would find fault with my wrapper or my hair or something or other about my appearance. "Men are the most ungrateful creatures !l.th? wfrld' 8he dclared with emphasis. they had to do a woman's work all day and every day. maybe th. u-m,M,. v.. .1 crltlcal of trifles I And then to think, after ten years of slaving for Jack Reynolds, he should allow himself to be led away by a chit of a girl,, with blondlned hair I know her hair was blondlned, and that she painted, too 1" Sallle squared her shoulders with a gesture of relentless determination. "But I have learned my lesson 1 No more men for me!" I could not help adding to myself, as she left me: "No danger. Sallle I" But I didn't. I could sympathize with her, even If I couldn't make her under stand. Of course her husband was at fault but not for the same reasons In poor Sal lie's mind. She had made the same mistake that thousands of other women are making. They don't appreciate the test and the dan ger of the morning after. After they are safely married they seem to lose the'lnltla tlve and the desire to keep themselves at tractive personally Just as attractive as in the clays of their courtship. They put tho four walls of the homo first, forget ting that a housekeeper Is a far different proposition from a wife. A man can al ways buy a good meal at a restaurant, but a good wife can't be ordered from a menu card. This does not mean that a woman should be a fluffy-haired, empty-headed doll, spending all of her time before the mirror cr a fashion book. But she should realize that marriage does not end all competition, by any mananer of means. The average man would rather look at a pretty face than at a tempting platter of ham and eggs. The girl who can look attractive In a hammock in the moonlight will get a man, but It is the girl who can look at tractive across a breakfast table In the morning who will keep him (Copyrleht. 1817. br The Dell Syndicate, Inc.) Wednesday The Tratedr of a Shoe WAR COST TO BE BORNE FROM TAXES AND LOANS Every Person Must Pay Share of $2,500,000,000 Needed, Pupils Arc Told The following Is the lesson on, the Liberty Loan, as given dally: Governments obtain money for the ex traordinary expenses of war In two ways: First, by taxing the people, and secondly, by borrowing from those who have money to spare. Let Us look today at the first method. A tax Is a specified portion of a person's property or incomo which he Is compelled to give to his Government. The citizen may or may not be willing to make the pay ment, but the Government will take It from him If he refuses to pay. Ordinarily the taxes collected by the National Government of the United 'States do not bear' heavily upon any person. The war-lax bill, how ever, which was signed by President Wil son on October 3, provides for tho collec tion of 2, 500, 000, 000 within a. year, or nearly J2&-for every man, woman and child In the country. Of course, not every one will pay this much, and some persons will pay much more. For It is a principle of taxation that every ono shall bo tveed in proportion to his property nnd Income. The wealthy will pay large amounts, while tho poor will pay little. Some facts con cerning these new taxes will be Interest ing to us. Special Services for Old Folks COLLINGSWOOD, N. J., Oct. IB.

Moved by a spirit of loyalty, these women are going out into the highways and byways of the city to preach the gospel of patriotism to show their sisters and the men of Philadelphia the powers which womanhood can display when Freedom and Democracy are in the balance. The Second Liberty Loan is before the women of this country no less than before the men! All must help! In France and England there are women's hands at the plow and at the lathe. In London and Paris idle men and idle women are alike cursed for their indifference. Even in the cities of the enemy no jewel is too precious to be denied the War Lord. Women are stripping their roofs of copper, their closets of cotton, their kitchens of metal, and giving everything, merely for the asking. - In order that we may npt be forced to such a pass, our Govern ment asks your generous subscriptions now to the Second Liberty Loan a United States Government bond that pays 4 interest, is backed by ihe entire resources of this country, and is the best and' safest investment in the world.
