18 PENROSE CHARGES "SNAPS" IN ARMY Pennsylvania Senator Says Democrats Are Given Safe Jobs Washington, July 12. That the administration is giving military com missions to Democrats performing purely civilian duties was charged on the floor of the Senate by Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania. Gross abxlse of power was charged against the administration in the course of the Senator's sensational speech. The senior Senator from Pennsylvania will introduce a resolution later calling upon the Secretary of War for a list of civilians who have been elevated to high military rank, although per forming nonmilitary duties. "The list will be so grotesque as al most to bring scandal upon the Gov ernment," Senator Penrose said. "Majors and colonels are being made, over night," he added, and predicted the selective army would be "a Re publican army.' The administration, he charged, is filling all the offices with Democratic appointees, who will be exempted from military service. Senator Chamberlain, chairman of the military affairs committee, said he would aid Senator Penrose in getting such a resolution before the Senate "if the military authority is being abused."

If a man had all his fortune in government bonds, and should leave them lying carelessly about for any thieving hand to steal, or should be so indifferent to their whereabouts that he mislaid them through his own heedlessness, wo should waste scant pity on him if he lost them. If a woman had a diamond tiara that she did not think enough of to even keep clean, and that she let get mutilated and disfigured, we should think her a sinful waster.

It is a very pathetic truth that if men and women would take only a tithe of the pains and trouble to protect their hearts that they do to protect their worldly goods and chattels, there would be fewer di vorces and fewer suits for alienation of the affections. It is the custom to express sym pathy with the jilted swain or maid en, or the deserted husband or wife. In reality, they are more to be blamed than pitied. Never to be loved is an undeserved misfortune, but to have been loved, and to have lost love, shows criminal carelessness and incompetency. Yet this thing happens so continu ally that it takes innumerable detec tives to hunt down the freebooters of love, and special courts to punish HAKRISBURG TELEGRAPH them for their depredations, and the air is full of the lamentations of hus bands and wives, who are beating upon their breasts and walling out that somehow, somewhere, they have lost or mislaid the affection of their spouses. How does it happen? A man marries a woman who gives him her whole loving heart, her romantic girlish dreams, her tender, clinging, sensitive soul. It's a great gift, enough to make a man a billionaire of affection, and you would think that he would exhaust every device, every particle of in genuity in keeping it safe. But he doesn't. He is too busy to protect it, too careless to lock it up. He doesn't even take the trouble to look at it now and then to see that .it is still in his possession. He is so interested in hie business that he is away from home from early morn until dinner time, and then he is too tired and too absorbed in his affairs to bother about what his wife thinks or wants or desires. Still less does he worry himself to find out whether he still owns her love, and then some day he wakes up to find out that she is just as indif ferent to him as he is to her. Ho has lost her love.

Men's Store gone—hopelessly and irretrievably lost. Or, his own may have been the hand that set the door of his wife's heart wide open for thieves to come in and steal his wife's treasure. She craved sympathy; ho gave her none. She loved amusement; he was too busy to accompany her even to the theater, or too stingy to give her as much as a treat of a restaurant supper. She had enthusiasms for art and literature; he mocked at them. She loved society! he let her go into it alone and unguarded. Be sure that no man ever alien ates the affection of another man's wife unless the husband is too in different to keep what he has won. How does a woman lose her hus band's affection? By the same road. By laziness, by weakness, by incompetency, by triflingness, by carelessness. She first charmed him by her pret tiness and daintiness. She lets her self grow slouchy and unattractive. He fell in love with her because she was amiable and sweet. She grows querulous and complaining and fretting. He dreamed of a home that would be full of comfort and peace. She makes one where all the demons of discomfort and dirt and discontent have their abode. She complains that other women have stolen her husband's heart away from her, but they could not have done it if she had not given them the opportunity. The coquets of the world are mere ly sneak thieves that pilfer the things that are lying around loose on which they can put their hands easily. They cannot break through the impregna ble wall of understanding; and sym pathy and devotion that husband find wife can build about each other's heart if they will. We spend our lives devising ways to keep our cash and our gew-gaws safe, but we do nothing to protect our love and keep it from getting lost or stolen. Yet if we lose our money we can make more; if our jewels are stolen we may possibly recover them, but if we once lose love, it is gone forever —nothing can ever restore it to us again.
