MILWAUKEE, Dec. 29.—These
thirteen don’ts for newlyweds have
been compiled by the clerk of the
court in Milwaukee by whom mar
riage licenses are to be issued un
der the new “eugenic” law, his
idea being that that statute hasn’t
repealed the laws of human na
ture:
j Don’t argile, try to be boss or
show your own importance.
Don't forget who you are and
who your wife is.
Don't be deceitful, selfish or
grouchy.
Don’t be a spendthrift or a tight
wad.
Don’t forget that your wife's
mother is the same to your wife
as your mother is to you.
Don’t forget the church.
Don’t stay at home all the time.
Don’t forget that the man worth
while is the man “who can smile
when everything goes dead
wrong.”
Don’t let your husband bring
his business cares home.
Don't let your wife go through
your pockets.
Don’t have an affinity.
Don’t forget to wipe your shoes
before you come into the . ouse.
Don’t butt in.

is considered certain, as «>n Sunday
morning one of the guards saw three
men cautiously advancing from one
of the entries. He called to another
guard, the men heard him- and went
back.
George Hendrickson, one of the
clansmen, was arrested Sunday after

NEW YORK, Dec. 29.—Miss Portia
Willis, one of the prettiest of the
suffragists, is making one of the fa
mous Pilgrim cloaks worn by General
Rosalie Jones and her followers on
the “hikes" of fhv. Jones army. Miss
Willis is one of the latest of Miss
Jones' followers andjs to go with the
“general" on a new “hike" to Al
bany.
Friends of the little "general" have
praised her tact and her diplomacy,
on the occasions of the Albany and
Washington “hikes.” and now they
point again to Its exercise. For Miss
Willis is a beauty! And 30 is Miss
Jones! And yet Miss Jones unhesita
tingly enlists Miss Willis! Was such
a thing ever known before? One
woman asks another.
And what i more marvelous, say
the women frien’s and admirers of
the “general” and the "recruit," is
that in all human probability the two
will still be firm friends when they
Anally march up to the Capitol to give
to Governor Glynn their message.
Immediately after enlisting Miss
Willis. “General” Jones redoubled her
efforts to recruit her army, and soon
“signed" Mrs. Ora Cecil-Bell, of No.
37 Madison avenue, a former captain
of the Twenty-seventh Assembly Dis
trict of the " oman Suffrage party.
Mrs. Cecil-Bell also declares she ex
pects to be with the “general" at toe
finish, and will do all site can to have
other suffragists join in the march.
Mrs. Cecil-Bell is also well known <is
an enthusiastic horsewoman, and once
rode from Philadelphia to Pittsburg.
This \n Ill be the second hike the
suffragists, under the leadership of
“General" Jones, have made to A. -
bany. One year * go a band of :«7
w om' u, clad in >wn’-r< mackinaws.
short skirts and square-toed shoes,
started on their 140-mile walk.
Though they till started with the
declaration that they would “stick” tj
the end, most of them found the or
deal too much, and left a handful to
present their petition in the interests
of the cause to the Governor.
Those who faltered by the wayside
all insisted that they were heart
broken because they could not finish
the hike, but gave excellent reasons
for dropping out. Many became foot
sore and exhausted, and others found
that their duties at home were so |
pressing that they were regretfully I
compelled to return to New York. j
“General” Jones also engineered a
suffragist march to Washington sev
eral weeks after the Albany hike and I
presented a suffragist petition
President Wilson.
