from a partisan point OF view, bat
rs question OF law, or the proper
determination of which depended
the behavior of the Senate in the

Montana should be allowed 10 select
her own Representatives. The plain
logic Of the arguments on the derau-
cratic side Of the chamber was that
the right 10 make the selection was
reserved 10 the Senate. From that

The Ideal Sanitary House.

The picture of the ideal sanitary house
is pleasing one. The house will stand
facing the sun, on a dry soil in a wide,
clean, amply severed, substantially paved
street, over a deep, thoroughly ventilated
and lighted cellar. The floor of the cellar
will be cemented, the walls and ceiling
plastered and thickly whitewashed with
lime every year, that the house may no.
act as chimney to draw into its cham
bers heterogeneous from the earth.
Doors and windows will be generous in
size, so as to admit. of plenty Of air The
outside walls, if of wood or brick, will be
kept thickly painted, not to shut out the
air, but for the sake of dryness.
The inside walls will be plastered
smooth, painted and vanished. Interior
wood work, including floors. will be var
nished. Movable rugs, which can be shak-
en- daily in the open air-not at the doors
or out of the windows-wilI cover the
floors. White linen shades, which must
be clean or they become unsightly, viii
protect the windows The furniture will
be plain, without upholstery. Mattresses
will be covered with oiled silk: blankets,
sheets and spreads-no comforts or quilts
will constitute the bedding There will
be as little plumbing as possible, and what
there is will be exposed. The hot cir fur
mace which heats the rooms will take its
supply from above the top Of the house in
stead of the cellar, and, we are told, the
spring" cleaning will be twice a year.

a Mouse for Trout Bait.

One Of the most successful anglers in
Biddeford gives it as his opinion that
trout, particularly the big fellows who
have lived in certain holes and fought shy
of hooks for years, ere fastidious as TO
what bait they swallow. He says he has
fished brook with angle worms for bait
for hours and caught nothing, and then
shifted to grasshoppers or flies and made
good catches. As an illustration of a
change of bait, he gives the following ex-
perience: He says that few summers ago
he made some big catches out of a certain
brook which was not, however, in York
county. One day, he says, he dropped his
line into hole and saw a monster trout
playing laZily about near the bottom. He
worked and coaxed for bite, but though
he trailed his bait under the very nose OF
the big fellow, he took no notice of it.
He spent the rest of the day with such
patience as is only possessed by true trout
crank, and at night the trout YVES still in
his native element. Next day he went
back and the trout was still in the hole
He angled all the forenoon with worms,
came back in the afternoon and tried
grubs, grasshoppers, Ties and spiders, and
still the trout was Indifferent and content
ed. The third day he went into a barn
and found a nest of young mice, and with
one Of these he repaired to the brook and
found the big trout still there He put the
vermin on his hook, dropped it into the
hole, and the infant mouse. alive and
kicking" had hardly struck the water
when the big fellow derted for him and in
a moment more was landed. He could ig-
more the usual kinds of bait, but he had
weakness for young mice, and the angler
happened to hit this weakness. -Biddeford

ThouchtfuIncss at Home.

There are thousands of little courtesies
that should not be lost sight of in the
cruel candor of marriage. The secret of a
great social success is to wound no ones
self love- The same secret will go far
toward making marriage happy. Many a
woman who would consider it an unpar-
donable rudeness not to listen with an air
of interest to what a mere acquaintance is
saying will have no least scruple in show
ing her husband that his talk wearies her.
Of course the best thing is when talk does
not weary-when two people are so unified
in taste that whatever interests the one is
of equal interest to the other, but this can
not always be the case, even in happy
marriage; and is it not better worth while
TO take the small trouble of paying court
eous attention to the one who depends on
you for his daily happiness than even to
bestow this courtesy on the acquaintance
whom it is a transient pleasure to please?

The Business Woman.

The typical business woman of today is
an object Of admiration to men and of won
der to members of her own sex. Men
would not marry her, but they enjoy hob
nobbing with her and drawing out her
ideas, which are generally novel If they
are not always thought practical it is be-
cause other women, who have not been
real business women, have created lack
of confidence in the minds of men.
The typical business woman likes men
and talks to them like brothers. When she
is talking, if she happens to be seated, she
turns sideways on the chair, crosses her
legs and places one arm akimbo on the
back; when standing she crooks her ell
bows and, with quick little movement Of
her thumbs, she places them in the imagin-
airy armholes of her imaginary waistcoat
She is almost always good hearted, has
ready sympathies and, if she acquires mon
ey, puts her hand in her pocket to help the
needy with more than manly alacrity.-

The Cruelty of the Check Rein.

The tight check rein Is one OF the great
est cruelties habitually and thoUghtlessly
practiced On the horse 1t binders the full
use of the muscles called into play when
the animal has load to draw. IL impairs
the circulation, causing heat and suffering
in the eyes and brain. 1t holds back the
horses head so that the full force of tho
suns glare falls into his eyes, and he finds
himself prevented from dropping his head
and thus shielding them from this suffer
ing. And lastly besides destroying grace
and ease of motion, the poor animal suffers
increasingly with nervousness and restless
ness, which find vent in involuntary move
ments which not infrequently call forth
punishment from the ignorant driver. Yet
the excuse Of the check rein is to give
''stylishness" to the horse. The check rein
is cruel just In proportion as it is tight
enough to prevent his head from falling
into its natural position If any one
doubts this statement let him for a mo-
ment loosen that relentless strap. and he
can have no more convincing argument
against its use than that afforded by the
impatient manner in which the horse in
stantIy stretches his neck when released
from its uncomfortable constraint-Ncw

The Well Bred Girl,

A well bred girl thanks the man who
gives her seat in the street car, and does
it in a quiet and not in an ELUSIVE way.
She does not declare that she never rides in
street cars. She does not accept valuable
present from any man unless she expects to
marry him. She doesn't talk loud in pub
lie places. She doesn't shove or push to
get the best seat and'she doesn't wonder
why in the world people carry children in
the cars, and why they permit them to cry.
She does not speak of her mother in a sar-
castle way, and she shows her the loving
Difference that is her due.
She doesn't try to be a man, and she
doesn't try to initiate him by adopting
masculine dress and manners. She doesn't
say she hates women, and she has some
true good friends among them. She doesn't
wear boots without their buttons on, or a
frock that needs mending. She doesn't
scorn the use Of the needle, and expects to
make clothes for very little people who will
be very dear to her.-Home Queen.
