To the Editor of the Evening I'ublle Iior.
Sir I was n war worker myself,

IZ to". BflX,y,Bnorttntl wlthl" P. bour, in our dlvorce-loving
time, surely most men would try to
or inexperienced "stay at home."
But this is my humble opinion of tho
So-called "Spiker romance." (Whero is
thc romance?) It is to me. at this time,
when there is so much unrest, so many
sad henrts, a shameful, disgraceful mix
up, and almost an insijjt to the nation a
mnnnooil record during uic wur.
I cannot see how a man who really
loved his own wife who knew she was
faithful at home, especially a father of
an innocent child should be excused
for un net of thut kind. Have men no
wilt power or manhood? Perhaps one
broken heart more or less did not mat
ter. Men are lynched for less reason
than that sometimes.
I have honestly tried to forget nil I
read, but the thing bobs up again and
ngain as it will to thc millions who
have read it. 1 have a hot and cold feel
ing of murder when I read It, nt least of
assault and battery, r wonder how many
easily led folks just now will try the
same procedure, if thc Spikers are al
lowed to, nnd how much the country a
moral btrcngth will weaken?
It seems to me the man must feel like
the proverbial "two cents." It seems
good that the least said of him thc bet
ter. As to the English girl, bbe, too, was
in her country's service. If hbe was
wronged, I do not see how living in thc
same house with Mrs. Spiker, or even
seeing her, will right the wrong. How
about the children when they grow up I
The blot is always on them, you know.
A good citizen will think a long time
before he marries ciwicr cniiu.
And ran vou really see the peace and
trust between thc two ladies in ten

back to the old. trusting life, to live

the man will be memory and tho baby,

example, one way or the other, will be
followed ever after. It seems to me (I
am of the male sex) if I wrrr,'e; -1
would say good-by to Friend "Uand.
let him settle so much on me then my
daughter, myself, who counted for
nothing, would live our own lives. Ami
perhaps who knows? find .a better
husband. , , , , .
Yes if I were she, I should operate
on my heartstrings quietly, as with a
surgeon's knife, even t- j igh the scar
remained. A scar heals, but what about
the running sore, the continuous agony
and dailv martyrdom? I could not stand
it. only one divine could, and none o

Then let husband marry the English
girl and live hapnilv (?) ever after
I know some will think it is letting
husband off easy. It is. But what can
you do? He really ueeds a neat little
stay somewhere to think it out, himself,
nnd not make others do the worning.
However, he is not the only one. Other
men are wondering when their retribu
tion will come.
But if I were tho wife concerned, I
could not stand livini he way she con
siders doing. 1 know it even though it
looks like a fine way to punish thc
offenders, too, except that the innocent
will be the real sufferer, in her plan.
Well, it's up to them. J tiuuK. ns an
e-ramnle nnd a standard, it needs a lot
-' thought and careful procedure. It
needs real punishment, not smoothing
over.
Won't some one please try to print
in a paper an example of goodness,
faith and loyalty to get the present bad
taste out of our mouths some touching
little story of fidelity? We need the
vision of God not a mud -puddle.

P. S. I wonder, if it had been the
wife, how generous her husband would
have been? I'm afraid he would have
gone out for a real "high life" of get
ting even.
Girl-Mother Praises Mrs. Spiker
To the rdttor of the Evenina Public I.cda'r
Sir Oh, how glad 1 am thut Miss
Knovvles's future is looking so much
brighter for her ! I actually feel happy
oyer it. I have watched your paper
every da.v and I am convinced that Mrs.
Sniker is an unusually tine, great-hearted
woman. How many would do us she
did? We cannot praise her quite
enough, u seems, and her brother-in-law
is as fine ns she. I hope he and
the Aoung mother will be very, very
happ .
But why does your paper sav noth
ing at all about Lieutenant P. R. Spj.
ker? Surely he, too, is one in a tbou-
kcep dead quiet and try to save their
own skin first of nil, however refined
and sweet their victims may be.
Wo nre nlways, and often with good
reason, talking about men's selfishness,
especially in such cases, so when a man

give him a little praise, too. Surely
life is not unmixed pleasure if onu is

Praise From a Philanderer's Wife
To the Editor ot the Kvcnlna Fubllo Ledger:
Sir Mrs. Spiker has set an exam
ple for tho wives of the world's phi
landerers. She is on amazing woman
with n breadth of view and a great
ness of heart nnd charity that compel
respect and admiration whether one
uccepts her unusual views or not.
I, for one, do accept them. She is
right. She has done the right thing.
And since I first heard of this re
markable case I have been wondering
whether I, if ever placed iu thc situa
tion which confronted her, would be
big enough to do ns she has done.
I mil afraid not. In the abstract, it
seems possible, though difficult. I
wish that I might prove that big. But
we women, so many of ns, arc the
prey of petty impulses, of a certain
petty, snvage vindictiveness. Mrs.
bpiker enn have none of that.
Aly husband himself is somewhat of
a philanderer, though iu an innocent
vvaj-, I try to believe. He hnjt tnnrlp
Clean breast, voluntarily, of two flirta
tions. And oh, thc heartburnings
those; revelations have cost me! But in
these cases I hnve tried to be brave,
and I bplieve I have succeeded. My
husband tells me I am a broad-minded
woman. And I try to think I am.
But if ever I were in Mrs. Striker's
plight, what would I do then? Would
I have that truly great woman's cour
age und magnanimity? Or would I be
submerged by a wave of petty hate and
a cruel desire for revenge?
How I would like to know? But
I pray heaven that the test may never
come to me. j,. c.

FURS AND MYSTERY
Seventh Artlclo of a Copyrighted Series.
i
Sable w a fur which people arc usually somewhat
cautious about buying, due perhaps to tho money involved,
and yet that same caution might vcll be used in buying furs
of ANY kind. Were you in themarket for a sable piece,
thc dealer without reputation iljould no doubt get little
consideration, because you would feci that he was well
armed with substitutes.
And well you'might.
From the lowly rabbit, or coney, upward to tho mink,
no possible substitute for sable has been overlooked.
Marmot, hare, fitch, weasel and muskrat are all used
in attempting to imitate this inost valuable of furs, but
the deception is usually poor fi3 to tho fact that genuine
sable fur is long, dense and remarkably soft. Vesides this
it i so peculiarly rooted in the skin that it may be brushed
with tho hand in thc natural direction, from head to tail,
or thc reverse, and it ivill remain as placed without apparent
injury or loss of beauty.
77ic best grade oj sable fur comes from Russia, and
hero again the dealer who lacks honesty has a chai'ico to
deceive. It is a common practice for such men to offer
American sable at a price as high as that usually asked
fir thc genuine Iius3ian sable.
