1T is said that American girls who
go abroad to study at German pensions
are always subjected by their school
mates there to catechism in regard to
their position in America. If their
father is only a kaufman, that is, a
merchant who stands behind his
counter and sells goods, the daughter
belongs to the second class in society;
but if he is a gross Kaufman, a
wholesale merchant, then she is re-
ceived into the upper stratum of Ger
man society, and can associate with the
impeeunious countesses and baronesses
in which that society abounds. ~ Detroit

MILWAUKEE, Feb. 12.-There Is no
change in the condition OF ex-Gov. VIM.
E. Smith. He is lingering at deaths door,
and there IS barely chance that he may re-
cover, but everything is against it. DR..
Fox, the attending physician, says he
passed restless night, but his mind is
clearer than it was yesterday. DR.. Fox
says also that if he can hold out three days
there is decided hope of his recovery.
His friends recognize that his condition Is
critical, and he is liable to die at any
moment. Should both lungs become
| involved or the Inflammation increase he
must die within twenty -four hours.
The report was telegraphed broadcast
last night that VIM. E. Cramer, of the
Erening Wisconsin,, who was frightfully
burned while escaping from the Newhal,
was dying. Mr. Cramer has been at
deaths door for two days, but to-day he
has taken turn for the batter and will
probably recover. The present cause OF
fear is blood poisoning in very aggra-
waited form, but the patients unusually
vigorous constitution and strong tissues
the result of vigorously correct life, are
depended on TO bring HIN through an Or
deal that would prove fatal in nine cases
| out of ten.

Two Essentials Of Success.

How to make farm pay, is cues
ton often asked, and problem with
many sides, there are such a multitude
of small things to be attended to, and
just here is where SO many fail. But
the ants which carried away the grain,
one kernel at time, at last left the
granary empty. So the innumerable
small, disregarded sources of saving
and profit on the farm, leave narrow
margins and little gains at the years
end. Most of the farmers forget Ma
poleon's banker, and waste the hall
Sheet of paper without thought. OF
course, as in all occupations, the first
requisite to success is a good wife. Not
so much a saving, economical, hard
working woman, as one with a clear
.head-a competent and oft-consulted
adviser. A good business woman, like
a good business man, will always be
properly economical. Too often the
farmer and his family go on the " come
penny go pound = principle, which is
an exceedingly bad one. The wife
should not only be thorough mistress of
domestic economy and correct house
;uOlQ Iudud2CulCub, UuG, l1hC tuO h1oh, a
lover of the farm and farm life, and
competent in case of absence or illness
on the part of the husband to see and
know that the farm is kept properly
running. It has been said that if the
man is the head of the house the
woman is the heart, but in the ideal
holding, both must be at once both
head and heart, for the least defect in
the action of either may be the cause of
great loss. A sage has written that no
man ever succeeded thoroughly without
feminine traits, and no woman without
masculine. This is more particularly
true on the farm than in any other bust
ness. For the animals to be really well
managed requires feminine gentleness
together with masculine strength and
thoroughness. Often, indeed, in case Of
any illness among the stock, woman S
hand and care is requisite. The man 5
strength is often also as requisite for
the successful performance Of ma.
tasks peculiar to the farm household.
In short, on the farm, it is especially
essential to success that the husband
and wife should in the largest sense be
true co-workers. Il Cor. Country Geist.e.
