TELL YOUR WIFE.

If you are in any trouble or
quandary, tell your wife, that is, if
you have one, all about it at once.
Ten to one her invention will solve
your difficulty sooner than all your
logic. The wit Of woman has been
praised, but her instincts are quick
er and keener than her reasOn.-
Counsel with your wife, or your
mother, or sister, and be assured
that light will flash upon your
darkness. Women are too com.
monty adjudged as verdant in all
but purely womanish affairs. No
philosophical student of the sex
thus adjudges them. Their intui-
tion or insight, is the more subtle,
and if they cannot see the cat in
the meal there is no cat there. In
cOunseling one to tell bis trouble
to his wife, we would 90 further,
and advise him to keep none Of bis
affairs secret from her. Many a
home has been happily saved, and
many a fortune relieved, by mans
full confidence in his better half
Woman is far more a seer and q
prophet than a man, if she be given
a chance. AS a general rule, wives
confde the minutest Of their plans
and thoughts to their husbands,
having no involvements to screen
from him. Why not reciprocate,
if but for the pleasure of meeting
confidence with confidence - We
are certain that no man succeeds
so we'll in the world as he who,
taking partner for life, makes
her the partner of all his purposes
and hopes. What is wrong in his
impulses or judgment, she will
check and set right with her almost
universally right instincts. 'Help'
meet was no Insignificant title, as
applied to mans companion. She
is meet help to him in every dark
ness, difficulty and sorrow of life;
and what she most Graves and de-
sres is confidence, without which
love is never free from a shadow

SHENANDOAH HERALD
ADVERTISING RATES.
A HAIR PIN STORY.

And yet the course of conjugal
life runs roughly. A compromise
keeps back the individual publicity
Of an interesting divorce suit in
wh.ch the papers were served by
Sheriff McIntire, but the second
sober thought and the timely ap-
pearancc Of her pa squelched it.
'Tis the story Of the hair-pin !
The gentle wife went to spend the
night with a lady friend, leaving
her chubby alone. The next
morning, in putting on his shoes
his On.hOok was NON est, and he
reached to the bureau and got a
hair-pin. ButtOning his shoes he
unthOughtfully laid that womanly
instrument, mightier than all
others, on the bed. lie went to his
business. That afternoon, the
household queen came home and
started to make the bed. Hold!
"My God what does this mean
| see it all ~ TO her husband she
rushed. She took him over the
Goals in the cruelest manner. He
pleaded not guilty. She knew
better, and IN the frenzy of her
wrath she rushed to the lawyer,
and the papers were drawn up and
served forthwith. The husbands
predIcament was deep and dire.
He telegraphed his papa.in-law in
Missouri to come home at once:
'Betsy and are out y and then
wainly sought to quell the domes-
TIC strife. Arbitration did no good
for sometime. The papa came
home on the Frisco train, the board
of arbitration held a meeting, and
the very sight of a hair-pin will
hereafter send daggers through
that husbands heart. lie wants a
law prohibiting hair-pins.-Kdnsds

BETTER THINGS.
RY GEORGE MCDONALD.

Better to smell the violet cool than sip the
glowing wine; =,
Better 10 bark hidden brook than watch
diamond shine.
Better the love of gentle heart than
beauty's favor proud
Better the roses living seed than roses IN
crowd.
Better to love in loneliness than to bask in
love all day;
Better the fountain in the heart than the
fountain by the way.
Better be fed by a mothers hand than eat
alone at will
Better to trust in God than say, my
goods my stOrehOuse fiIl."
Better to be little wise than in knowl'
edge to abound
Better to teach child than toll to till per
fection's round.
Better to sit at a masters feet than thrill
a listening State;
Better suspect that thou art proud than
be sure that thou art great
Better to walk the real unseen than watch
the hours event
Better the "wsll dOnep at the last than
the air with shouting rent.
Better to have quiet grief than hurry
ing delight;
Better the twilight of the dawn than the
MONDAY burning bright.
Better death when work Is done than
earth's most favored birth
Better a child in Gods great house than
the king Of all the earth.

Married PEOPLE Would be Happier,

If home troubles were never told
to a neighbOr.
If expenses were proportloned
to receipts.
If they tried to be a agreeable as
in courtship days.
If each would remember that the
other was a human being and not
an angel.
If each was as kind to the other
as when they were lovers.
If fuel and provisions were lald
in during the high tide of summer
work.
If both parties remembered that
they married for worse az well as
for better.
If men were as thoughtful Tor
their wives as they were for their
sweethearts.
If there were fewer street cos
Times. and more plain, tidy, house
dresses.

Who pants for fame and riches
Wen batter down the walls Of wealth
And 90 in through the breeches'

CrOss-legged at our labor 7
All, no we draw the tape-line at
The wrongs which rouse our neighhor
In union there is strength, 30 we,
Each nine Of us united,
Nav form trade unions as one man,
And have our wrongs all righted.
And if the coat fits put it on,
Ye wealthy who Oppress us
In vain you clothe your thoughts so nm
Whenever you address MS.
We've pscketed your insults long
And cottonOd to oppression,
But now our fate hangs on thread
We strike for our profession.
We only want our vested rights,
And hence we are combining
But trust this little labor cloud
May have a silver lining.

Clearing the City.

Mayor Holmes has made up his mind
to clear the city Of the roughs, thieves,
thugs and gamblers that invest the
town. Some seventy-fve Of these ques-
tionable characters have been in the
city for few days and their numbers
have been increasing. Yesterday the
mayor instructed the officers to open
war, by making arrests in all eases
where 1t could be done and by notifying
all questionable characters to leave the
city CIR suffer the severest penalty. This
is q step in the right direction, and the
people will applaud the efforts made to
rid the city Of this questionable element.
There is a strong determination on the
part of our citizens, to see it, that law
and order prevails and they will supple
ment any effort made by the mayor
looking toward this end. Yesterday
there was strong talk of forming COM
mittee to assist in clearing the town of
the rough element. The time has come
when strong measures viii be taken, and
it will go hard with those who disobey
the timely notices served on them by
the marshal. It will require vigorous
efforts to clear the city and it is to be
hoped that there will be no letting up,
until the last one Of the disrcputable
characters leave the town.-Garden City

A NEW POLICE FORCE.
Dodge City to be Protected from
Confidence Men.

For some months the confidence oper-
ators have piled their schemes upon
the unsrspecting traveller, in many in
stances using violence to perpetrate
their nefarious business. We are glad
that person ard property are to be pro-
tected, and Che immigrant who comes
among us will not be subject to the in
fuences Of the bold operator.
On Monday afternoon the city coun-
Gil held a meeting with G.. NJ. Hoover,
President Of the council, and appointed
six additional men to the police force.
The new appointees- are well-knowr
citizens, as follows:
Fred Singer,
l. j. Collier,
James Catron,
T. J. Tate,
Nat. Haynes.
John S. Kelsey.
They are instructed to arrest all per-
sons who are found plying the confidence
or hold-up business, aud We have no
doubt the new police force will efHci-
emily discharge their duty.

J. W. Crawford, druggist of Pierce
vile, was in the city Monday. He
says the people up there are fully alive
to the Importance Of securing bridge
across the Arkansas at that point, and
it was believed that the proposition to
vote 81, 900 in bonds for this purpose
would result favorably in the election
appointed for the oath. Many cars of
settlers household goods are stopping
there, he says, and the town is moving
briskly forward
