A Cheering Word for the Husband


One of these days things NAV work
round again to an appreciation of the
Present Man as distinguished from the
Coming Woman, who makes so large a
figure in literature. Take him all in all
the Helpful Husband is about the finest
character of the day. There has been
a certain exhilaration for the woman in
stepping outside her home, but for the
man, what patience, what subduing of
pride, what building up of new ideals
For once the character of the sexes
seem to be reversed; the bravery of
adventure is the woman's, the watch
ing for results the mans.
Where can one find finer develop
ment of chivalry than in men. and
they are not few in number, who
against their desires, against their
instincts, against their reason, are
letting their wives support them
selves in marriage, are even urging
them and aiding them to walk in direc-
lions which it pains them to see them
walk, because they are farsighted
enough or loving and loyal enough to
leave even the woman who is dearest
to them to work out her own salvationl
The man who does this knows that he
is misunderstood, knows that he is
and his part-the silent part
is quite as plucky as many of the
most applarde displays of feminine
energy and enterprise. New York Re-

FARM FOR SALE !

Owing to the advancing years of

farm owned by him for many years

much less than its value.
To those who are acquainted
with the place no communication
is necessary. For the benefit of
those who are not, say it is one of
the best farms on the Lamoille
River. 1t has a meadow nearly or
quite one mile in length, and
nearly as level as a floor. 1t was
in a fair state of cultivation when
purchased by my father, and du-
ring the many years that he has
owned it he has been constantly
improving it, until it is to-day one
of the most fertile farms on the
Lamoille River. The dwelling is
a good two-story house, in an ex.
cellent state of repair and pleas
antly located, and the barns are
fair. 1t would cost $500 at least
to build the buildings to-day
The larger part of the farm is
in Morristown, where taxes are
comparatively low. The balance
lies contiguous to Hyde Park vii.
lage, where there is an academy,
court house, two banks, printing

sundry stores, railroad depot, ETC.,
all of which are within Il to q

now offered for $4,000. 1t was
sold a few years since for $4,000.
1t contains 200 or 2I5 acres, but
if desired will reserve a part of it.

This is the day of printers ink, and
the prizes are for those who use it.
Your traditions and prejudices may be
to the contrary, but the world doesn't
care a fig for them. The man who sits
and waits for his trade in these days
gets left. Don't advertise, don't quote
your price lists, don't see that your city
or your business is represented in your
patronizing territory, and don't stand
up manfully alongside of those who are
fighting for your rights and interests,
and there can be but one result-shrivel-
ing up. Good statesmen, first class ar
ticles, gilt edged credit are not enough.
They are excellent, necessary-but not
enough. Printers ink beats them in the
long run. Uncle Sans mails go every
day, carrying their freight of special
offers, new crops, long credits, cash dis
counts, job lots and lovers tales from
everywhere. And in the end your trade
is seduced. It's the world-old story of
the honeyed tongue and the open ear.
In the fierce competition of these days
old habits and associations simply can
not stand the pressure. The trade is for
the man who uses printers ink.-Gro-

A Glimpse of the Great Preachers Sec
rotary and Business Manager.


rotary and Business Manager.
Mrs. Talmage is distinctly her hus-
bands right hand, and all the details
of his busy life are looked after by her.
She is a business woman, having rare
executive ability, capable of easily
handling a number of things at the
same time Much of DIR. Talmage's
daily work is planned and laid out by
her She makes his pastoral and social
engagements, and all his lecturing in
terests are in her hands She knows
his capacities even better than he
Whenever a journey is to be made it is
she who lays out the route, procures
the tickets and staterooms and attends
to all the details No public man per-
haps is saved SO many annOyances as is
Dr. Talmage by his wife's foresight and
ability.
The rear apartment of the second
floor is Mrs Talmage's working room
1t is tastefully furnished, but more with
an eye to utility than characterization.
In this room Mrs. Talmage spends most
of her time 1t is her private den"
All the mail that is left at the house for
DR.. Talmage is taken into this room
and is opened by her 1t is not an I'M
usual thing for the postman to deliver
between one and two hundred letters
day, all of which pass through Mrs.
Talmage's hands. Business letters are
answered by her, and all letters that
may be of an unpleasant or annoying
personal nature are destroyed. DR..
Talmage never sees them.
A day in Mrs. Talmage's home would
be a revelation to those who believe
that the life of a public mans wife is
succession of pleasures, dotted here with
q pretty compliment and there with
some token of honor While many peo-
pie are yawning and preparing to break
their nights rest Mrs Talmage is al
ready up opening the first mail. Break
fast is promptly at o'clock. Then the
family separate. and the wife begins to
receive callers, Rhich alone is task.
1t is q we'll known saying among the
neighbors that ''the Talmage bell is
never still"
All kinds of people must be seen, in
appointments made and
kept, the pastoral work of the largest
church IN America must be looked af- |
ter, the details of score or more mis- |
sionary, church, literary societies with
which Mrs. Talmage or her husband is
have their demands, and in
addition to all these are the household |
cares of large house and q family of |
growing children.
All the appointments of the Talmage
home in Brooklyn reflect the woman
who presides over it. Gaudiness in
furniture or decorations is absent, and
instead one sees Il harmony of good
taste on every hand. Mrs. Talmage is
an excellent housekeeper, and her home

ago he took Maggie Dooley 60 see Joe
Murphy in "Shaun Rhue," and she Is
talking about it TO this day. Not long
ago, however, Barney met the Widow
McGraw, whose husband was killed
last summer in the Burlington yards.
His life was insured for 1900. The
widow put every dollar Of il in bank,
and it's drawing per cent.
She has an income of ten dollars n
month from the interest and twenty
dollars more from where she cooks.
She is employed in the household OF n
Prairie avenue gentleman. IL was mt
wake that Barney became acquainted
with the Widow McGraw. She was
smitten with his red whiskers and win
ming ways. He escorted her home, and
on the way they stopped mt a restau-
rant and ate oysters, both raw and
fried. Barney was invited TO call,
which he did, and on leaving he told
the widow that il was the most enioya-
bic evening he had spent since he came
to America. And il was arranged that
they should go buggy riding Sunday
afternoon If the day was fine.
Barney forgot all about engaging a
rig until 10 o'clock i'm the morning llo
went 10 several stables on the West
Side, but could not hire a horse for love
or money. The day was delightful,
and everybody was out driving about
the parks and along the boulevards.
He telephoned TO Leroy Payne's. and
offered ten dollars for n rig for two
hours, but he might just rs well have
offered ten cents There wasn't horse
or buggy 20 be had in all Chicago. As
a last resort he hitched up n team Of
cream colored horses TO white hearse
and started for Prairie avenue.
The hearse rolled noiselessly along
over the granite paved avenues. and
Barney was i'm the height Of his glory.
In front Of where the widow IL EN-.
ployed he turned in so close that the
wheels of the hearse scraped against
the curbstone. People in the neigh
borhood went out on the front steps 10
inquire who was dead. Presently Bar
ney and the widow came out 81 the
house and mounted the drivers box.
As the hearse rolled away peals OF
laughter split the air. They drove In
impressive dignity down Drexel boule-
ward, and then turned the heads Of the
cream colored horses toward jackson
park.
Thousands Of persons saw the strange
vehicle circling around the park, but
they didn't know what TO make Of Il.
Barney and the widow paid no atten-
ton to the caustic comments made
upon them from time TO time. They
enjoyed the drive as well ms they would
have done in a landau; for on the way
home it was all planned that the Widow
McGraw will soon change her name TO
