The wheat market has ruled weaker to-
day but quiet, iluctuating within a very
small range. Foreign markets were re-
ported stronger, while securities were
higher. The outside intelligence was not
enough TO affect the market much either
way, and the result was a scalping deal
almost wholly in the hands of local ope-
rators. At the close the market is steady.
Corn was quiet and steady, fluctuating
mostly in sympathy with wheat, and the
close were tame.
Provisions were firmer but quiet, and
very little business doing.

Where the Minority Won.

The slnartest man ever saw "in charge" Of
O primary was an old Dutchman Il am not
candidate for anything this year myself, con-
sequently l use the phrase "old Dutchman)
"over the Rhine" in Cincinnati. The voice of
the meeting was rather against the chairman,
and he saw it, but he didn't hear it, and he
kept the meeting itself from hearing. no
ticed that he managed to defeat all motions
offered by the majority and carry all resolu-
tions offered by the minority OF course,
you know a primary "over the Rhine" in the
city Of McLeanville, is rather more German
than mass meeting in Berlin. Well, every
vote wos ia" and a "nein" vote, and the
chairman always contrived to make the
the minority roared the good, mouth-filling
'yaw." An obnoxious motion would be in
troduced. Anxious looks on the countenances
of the apprehensive minority waiting for the
chairman to come to the front He was
always calm, always ready, always '.in bat
terry" Rising slowly to his feet he put the
question with impressive, honest deliberation.
"All dot was in favor of defeading dot raiso-
luton will say ia" "Yaw!" bawled the ex-
ultant minority, in a roar that made the gas
flicker. "All obbosed to defeading der raiso-
luton say nein." "Nein." thinly squeaked
the exasperated majority. "Der raisolution
was defeaded," calmly announced the chair,
and the wrathful howls of the crowd utterly
drowned the triumphant shouts of the minor
ity. 1t was no use to appeal from the chair
or call for division, he always got the "yaws"
on his side-Burdette, in Brooklyn Eagle.

Husbands may thus do much for their
wives to make life pleasant. 1t Is a vital
question With many of US: How shall W,
keep our wives at homes Shall we play
poker with them and keep their favorite
drinks at the house, SO that they will not
yearn to 90 down town evenings, or shall we
weep over them with low, smothered sobs?
| sometimes think that it is not downright
depravity on the part OF wife, so much as
it is thoughtessnesS, that leads her to forget
her husband and leave him alone througi
the long evenings. So let me say to you,
Sweet Home. that whatever you do, you
should make Your home SO attractive even
ings that your wife will not feel that it is
bore To remain at your side.
Sing to her if you can, read to her, bring
her the evening paper, smooth her soft hair
gently as you did when sne used to come to
see you. Do not rudely tell her that you will
smooth her hair if she will take it off and
hand it to you. Be gentlemanly, unselfisb
and thoughtful. We must make our homes
attractive if we would hope to keep our wives
near US.
l once knew "A husband who was cross and
