GHTS AND DUTIES OF WIFE
Row C. C. Miller. In his nrth lecture
Marringo mid Divorce, Nov.O.discuss
tho Eights and Duties of a Wifo. Ho
Id In part :
Woman ns wo have &eon, meets man
t upon tho footing of a passive slave,
t ns an intelligent assistant. It will
rdly bo disputed that in tho great cm
ro of clinrncter building, tho power be
nd tho throno is tho Christian wll'o nnd
)thor. Tho homo is her sphere in a
uso in which can nover bo n man's
hero. Nevertheless when it Is asked,
Vho Is tho head of tho household?" tho
swer must bo "tho husband." Tho
mstlo Paul tenches that it is tho duty
tho wifo to submit herself to her hns
nd as unto tho Lord, but in tho samo
oath ho adds this Injunction: "Hus
nds, lovo your wives, oven as Christ
-o loved tho Church nnd gave himself
t it." Hut if it is duty of tho husband
lovo his wife, it Is her highest right
demand that lovo ns God savs: "Thou
nit lovo tho Lord thy God nnd Him
ly." So tho wifo should say : "1 om
0 only 0110 to you, nnd I am not will
g to divide your lovo with nnother."
Tho woman who insists on remniiiing
a pedestal from which sho lords it
or her llusbnnd will end by (hiding her
If on n foot-stool. Neither tho pedestal
r tho foot-stool is a comfortable, nor
on an honorable, placo to occupy in a
rnio. Tho husband nnd wifo wiio go
m in nrm niako tho ideal homo.
Tho wifo has n richt to nxnnnt. thn bus.
Ind to show liis lovo by giving hor tho
eforonco of his company. I cannot un
rstand why, aftor peoplo mo married,
o husband goes out nlono, seeking his
ensures in ono direction nnd tho wifo
nnother. Companionship is ono of the
iof objects of mnrringo. "It is not
od that tho tram bo nlono, I will ninko
uoipmeoD ior mm." wnon a wiio ae
istoms hersell to sook pleasures out
do of tho homo nnd nway from hor
isband, sho not only points out to him
liero ho Is to seek his plensuro but also
vltes tho dnnger of each ono seeking
lart, pleasures that aro positively for
dden. Tho real tragedy of tho homo is not
inouhced by tho bit of whlto crepe that
ltters at tho door, no, it is estrnngo
ent tho passing of lovo's kindness.
As ovory ono knows, tho old English
nrringo ceremony contains tho word
)boy" in tho minister's address to tho
ido. The question as to whotlior sho
lould promlso to "oboy" hor husband
is been much discussed nnd thero seems
bo pretty general agreement in Eng
nd nnd America thut sho should not.
is surprib.njy how fow writers who
iter their pmtost against the. uso of
o word "oboy" ronlly tako tho pains
learn and grasp tho moaning of that
ord in its Scriptural application. Thoy
tovor writo ns if it mount servile obo
onco as if tho husband woro to dole
it his commands to his wifo just as ho
es to his servants or his cattle and
at tho wifo woro thus submissively to
nd beforo him. His la a most por
clous misinterpretation of Scripture
id a libel on its real teaching.. Tho
riptures do say: "Wives, bo in subjoc
on to your own husbands," adding
trthor on "oven as Sara obeyed Abra
im, culling him lord." But it also says
husbands: "Dwell with thom accord
g to knowledge, giving honor unto tho

ilng holrs together of tho grace of

ralnst tho word "oboy,'' thoy should
thor understand it In its Scriptural
Imso or bo silent about it. It simply
loans to assign to tho husband tho
lidahln of thn fnmilv. This rihrtuH fin
radshih has boon woefully lost sight of
1 our uuy, anu is responsible lor moro

ho result is, husbands, not u fow, have

INDIANS REVOLT; TROOPS SENT
Navajo Tribe Dissatisfied and Defied
Government For Two Months.
Washington, Nov. 10. Dissatisfac
tion among a small group of Navajo
Indians have necessitated tho first
demonstration In military force against
tho redman .since the Wilson admin
istration came into ofllee. It is only n
little group of fifteen braves who
started all the-trouble, but at the sug
gestion of the Indlnn olllce and after
Secretary of tho Interior Lane had
told the president and Ills cabinet col
leagues of the trouble it wns determin
ed to send a small force Into the moun
tain regions to which tho Indianshave
lied to bring them to terms.
Secretary Lane gave out the follow
ing statement regarding tho outbreak:
"Tho sending of troops to capture
fifteen recalcitrant Navajo Indlnns
was done on the advice of Major Mc
Laughlin, who for thirty years 1ms
been known as tho Indians' friend and
is probably tho most popular white
man among tho Indians of North
America. These Indians are under in
dictment for having stolen three In
dian women nnd committed other of
fenses against order and law on the
reservation. They have defied the gov
ernment for over two months."
Mr. Lane, after conferring with the
Indian commissioner here, replied as
follows:
"We would greatly regret to uso
force, and this must bo tho last re
sort. Is it possible to starve the re
calcitrants out? nave thoy water
where they are nnd food? now much
ammunition have they? Could wo
not surrdund thom nnd keep them
from getting food or water? Tho In
dians can do no harm whore thoy nro,
nnd we can wait beforo enforcing tho
law. Wo do not wish to show author
ity, but to succeed in our purpose,
which is to bring them to time eventu
ally without either shedding white
blood or Indian blood."
DEAD PRIEST GUARDED BY DOG
One Animal Led the Way to the Woods
Where Body Was.
Mobile, Ala., Nov. 10. Tho body of
Father Valasquoz, a professor in tho
monastery at Itosaryville, La., was
found guarded by a small dog in the
woods near tho Institution. Another
dog led the searching party to the
place. The priest had been missing
since Saturday, and death was due to
heart disease.
The dogs were fas friends of the
priest. Nero, tho inrger, went to the
monnstery nnd began to howl nnd
whine, nt the same time tugging nt
those who had arisen as n result of the
commotion. When followed, ho led sev
eral priests to where the dead mnn lay.
The little dog was found whining over
the body.
Father Vnlasquez was fifty-eight
years old and was tho first; rector of
the University of Manila after the
Spanish-American war.
250 DEER KILLED FIRST DAY.

Boston, Nov. 10. Reports of 250 deer

missioners. About 150 wero killed In

Worcester county, twenty in Plymouth
county and one in Barnstablo county.

THE BOV CAN NEVER LOOK BACK AT A RENTED HOUSE AND
FEEL LIKE HE WOULD IN LOOKING BACIC ON THE OLD
HOMESTEAD.
There isn't any question that
bullding-ourself a house Is a dollar-and-cents
proposition. It takes
money, and to build it means to
spend money you have saved or to
save money you would otherwise
spend. It is pretty certain to prove
a good investment. It will save you
rent and uncertainty. It is likely to
increase In value as the town grows
and earn more in increment than the
money would at interest. The build
ing will depreciate with time. But
the lot should grow in value If this
town does as well as the country at
large, which is nearly doubling its
land values every decade.
But there is another side to it also
that is worth considering. There is
another side besides the money side.
Men of families are house builders
and tho home builders. TJiey are
thinking about something in addition
to the money saved and money earn
ed. They are thinking of the human
side.
There is no doiibt that one of the
best influences for good is the Amer
ican home. The children who grow
up in it look back at it in after lifje
and the memory is an actual moral
influence. The kind of person a fel
low is when he is a man depends a
good deal on the kind of home he
had when he was a boy.
He can never look back at a rent
ed house and feel like he would if
looking back at the old homestead.
It hasn't the same stability. It
doesn't awaken the same pride. It
DEMOCRATS IN FEAR
Remarkable Changes Made
In Owen Bill.
RESERVE PROVISIONS REVISED.
This Done In Haste to Prevent Cur
rency Contraction Many Other Im
portant Changes Made by Both
Wings of the Senate.
Washington, Nov. 10. The adminis
tration Democrats on tho senate bank
ing and currency committee are con
siderably concerned over the problem
of preventing tho contraction of cur
rency ns tho result of the shifting of
reserves from the present reserve cen
ters to the proposed regional reserve
banks.
This became apparent when the six
Democrats made some remarkable
changes In tho administration bill uf
fectiug tho reserves.
Many other Important chances were
made by both wings of tho senate. The
bars erected against the use of the
words "lawful money" In connection
with the redemption fund wero let
down a littlo further by the Demo
crats.
Tho most important action of the
day, however, had to do with the ef
forts to avoid a possible contraction
of tho currency and the calling of
loans.
Among the Democrats a tentative
agreement was reached that member
banks instead of transferring money to
the regional associations at once may
pay 50 per cent of the reserves re
quired by the regional association In
rediscount paper to the value of twice
the amount of the reserve required.
It was also agreed that the federal
reserve board in its discretion may ac
cept tho notes of the reserve associa
tions or any form of bank notes torn
porarily with the understanding that
tho reserve board will not extend this
privilege to the banks beyond the
temporary conditions created by the
shifting of reserves.
Owen Startles Colleagues.
But even, with this action members
of tho committee were far from being
certain that they had solved the prob
lem presented by tho complaints of
western bankers ns to the possibility
of n contraction of currency and the
calling of loans due to the shifting of
reserve money.
This is admittedly a very serious
problem nnd does not seem to havt
heen entirely coinprehendeduntil Chair
man Owen presented figures that
startled his colleagues. These figures
had been compiled by Mr. Owen acting
with the treasury department experts
The chairman has maintained all
rffong that If the member banks found
the strain too heavy on them because
of tho shifting reserves they would
not bo driven to the extremity of call
ing loans, but could turn to rediscounts
to replenish their stock of cash.

has not recollections, or few of them,
that serve to straighten him up and
make him want to bo somebody to
be somebody worthy of the roof un
der which 'he was raised and father
and mother who raised him.
He never learns anything but wan
derlust in a rented house. He thinks
life is just living somewhere to-day
with the probability that you will be
living on some other street or In
some other town tomorrow, it
doesn't teach him to settle down or
settle up. It just teaches him to
move, to be a rolling stone.
So thero are the children to be
considered as well as tho dollars.
Children look up to a father who
doesn't have to look up to a land
lord. And, having known the de
lights of ,a home, a real home, when
they grow up they wa'nt homes of
their own. Your daughter will be
more likely to marry a man who is
likely to provide It; and, If she mar
ries that kind of a man, she will be
more likely totlbe happy. Your son
will be more likely to marry the
kind of woman who wants a home
and a chance to make a home and
a husband happy. And that means
that his chances for happiness are
increased.
So, In building a home, you not
only make yourself happier, but you
do something to assure, or at least
to make likely the happiness of your
children. And, when you stop to
think of it, making your children
happy is the greatest' happiness in
the world.
PREPARING TREES FOR WINTER
"During the mild weather of fall
and the early part of the winter is
the time to prepare trees to pass
through the winter without Injury
from certain causes," said State Zoo
logist H. A. Surface, at his office in
Harrlsburg recently.
Professor Surface said that there
Is great advantage in mounding
trees with earth around them before
the permanent freezing of the ground
for winter. He has had considerable
experience with this work, and now
practices this method in his own or
chard. The grass and leaves around
the trees should be drawn away with
a rake or hoe, and with a long-handled
spade that will let the workmen
reach under the trees. The earth
should be piled around the top in a
cone to the height of four to six In
ches. The reason for drawing away
the very loose earth and organic ma
terial, such as grass, weeds and
leaves, at the surface before covering
the earth and the mound is that If
this is not done, mice "will work un
der the mound and gnaw the trees
beneath it. If the earth is well com
pacted and not placed on rubbish,
there is almost no danger from their
burrowing through it.
One great advantage of the
mounding is that it continues above
tho ordinary surface of the snow,
and as the mice do not come above
tho snow to feed, it generally gives
protection. The same results as
mounding trees are to be obtained
by tamping down the snow after each
snowfall, so that it is so firm that
the mice will not attempt to burrow
through it.
The mice which do this damage
are the Short-tailed meadow mice
properly known as Voles, and of
ten wrongly called Ground moles,
which are seen in abundance in fields
and orchards where there is much
vegetation. Their smooth winding
runways just at the surface of the
ground are well known. Sometimes
they go so far as to dig into or pene
trate the ground and gnaw at the
roots, of trees that may extend out
some distance from the trunk. It is
a good plan to prepare for the winter
by poisoning them by putting poison
into their holes. Thero is a Farm
ers' Bulletin on poisoning such rod
ents, and published by the U. S. De
partment of Agriculture, Washing
ton, D. C, which can be obtained
free of charge by writing for it.
ERIE SUED FOR $010,000.
Suit Brought Against Railroad Com
pany by State of New York.
Lyon and Painter, of Binghamton,
have begun active preparation for tho
trial of the action brought by the
State of New York against the Erie
Railroad Company to recover $G19,
807 for damages alleged to have oc
curred to tho State forest preserve
in Delaware county. W. D. Painter
is in Long Eddy, where he will di
rect the work of ascertaining the ac
tual damage which Attorney Gener
al uarmody claims tho State has suf
fered as tho result of forest fires set,
as he alleges, by sparks from Erie
locomotives.
It is the contention of the Erie
that proper and suitable Are screens
and spark arresters were In use on
all engines traversing the alleged
burned area, and further, that were
tho company at fault, the damages
alleged are excessive. It Is In sup
port of this statement that the local
lumber experts have been retained
to ascertain the actual damage. The
work of examining conditions on the
tract, wheih contains about 2,000
acres, will take probably a month.
