WOMEN AS HOUSEKEEPERS

A belief exists in the minds of one
half creation that a woman cannot dis
play the most shadowy preference for
books to frying ham, or art to dishwash-
ing, without becoming slattern and
terror to good housekeepers. "Ah, han
says one, $50 madam doesn't sweep
her home Fridays because it interferes
with her painting lesson, or just look at
her dining room windows! Ten to one
they haven't been washed this winter.
lou never go into her home any way
that you don't find her with a book in
her hand.
Now, my friend, says writer in the
Chicago Herald to be good housekeeper
should not cut woman off from every
thing else i'll life any more than for a
man to be good navigator should debar
him from approaching the flavor OF a
peach. Ii you and l ever get to draw
the line clear aud distinct between essen
tials and non essentials we shall strike a
keynote to harmony of domestic life
without a discord. A sunny natured,
clean headed woman with we'll nourish-
ed brain (and you can't nourIsh your
brain without reading any more than
you can your body without food) will
make household work anything but a
drudgery. She will study out the easy
ways of doing things, she will not tie
herself down to the customs of her dead
and gone grandmother, and do just so
much sweeping and just 50 much silver
polishing, whether needed or not, merely
because the traditions of her ancestors
claim work should be done that way.
She may not adhere to any Mede and
Hersian code; perhaps she will pile up
her dishes now and then aud let then
wait while she reads bit out of the new
magazine or plays a jig for the children
to dance by, or even runs out for jolly
evening with John, but in the end she
will show quite as attractive home as
thought she knew no god but precision
and no necessity but method. The appli-
cation of the science how best to
discriminate between the essentials and
non- essentials of life will make any
home happy and keep its mistress fresh
and jolly. There can be no peace nor
comfort in a sovenly home, presided
over by au upwholesome Bridget. Meth
or can there be any happiness in home
presided over by an over scrupulous
pessimist. Genius and generous dis
play of common sense in the kitchen
will SO plan the campaign of work as to
secure something in the home life better
than drudgery. There must be some
grind, but let it be of the sort that car
ries lots of music along with it, the or
gan rather than the grindstone.

ter declined to hear him. The General
spoke three words when the Judge inter =

him from the room. The latter did so.
The Suffolk county bar felt outraged
that one of its members should be sub
jected to such summary and unwarran-
ted conduct, and proposed to take it up,
but General Butler properly pointed out
that he wanted the matter taken up i'll a
body where the judge could appear and
make formal answer. A proposed mass
meeting was abandoned for the same
reason. But General Butler is not 60
ing to let the matter rest. He is going
to take the case into the courts-pro-
badly the Supreme Cortland if he
doesn't live long enough himself, will
leave instructions in his will to prose
cute the case to the end. Certainly the
conduct to attempt to use his official
position to wipe out old scores is re-
markable proceeding, one that will not
be approved by the pubic even if sus
tanned by the authorities. General But
Ter has been i'll the wrong on many oc

COMFORT TO HOMELY GIRLS

How did that homely woman contrlve
to get married? is not infrequently re-
marked for some good domestic creature
whom her husband regards as the apple
of his eye, and in whose plain face he
sees something better than beauty.
Pretty girls who are vain of their
charms are rather prone to make obser
vations of this kind, and consciousness
often lett to pine on the stem, while
weeds of LONELINESS go off readily, is no
doubt, in many cases at the bottom of
the sneering question.
The truth is that most men prefer
LONELINESS and amiability to beauty and
caprice, explains writer in the New
York Ledger. Handsome women are
sometimes very hard to please. They
are apt to over value themselves, and, in
waiting for an immense bid, are occa-
sionly cleft on market" The plain sls-
tiers, on the contrary, aware of their per-
sonal DEFICIENCIES, generally lay them
selves out to produce all agreeable I'M
preston, and in most instances succeed
They don't aspire to capture paragons
with princely fortunes but are willing to
take anything respectable and love-
worthy that Providence may throw in
their way.
The rock ahead of your naughty Junos
| aud coquettish Hebes is fastidiousness.
They reject and reject until nobody
| cares to WOO them Men don't like to
| trihed with lesson that thousands of
| pretty women learn too late. Mrs.
| Hannah More, a very excellent and pious
| person, who knew whereof she wrote,
recommends every unmarried sister to
| accept the first good, sensible Christian
lover who falls in her way. But ladies
whose mirrors, aided by the glamous of
| vanity, assure them they were born for
| conquest, pay no heed of this sort OF
advice.
1t is a noteworthy fact that homely
girls generally get better husbands than
fall to the lot OF their fairer sisters.
Men who are caught merely by pretty
face and figure do not, as rule, amount
to much. The practical, useful, thought
full portion of mankind is wisely content
with unpretending excellence.

Gen. Benjamin F. Butler nearly twenty
years ago offended Judge Carpenter,
then on the Supreme Bench of Rhode
Island, during some of the famous
Sprage litigation. Since tEen they have
been sworn enemies. Recently Judge
Carpenter was transferred to the Federal
bench and last week came in collision
with the doughty General. 1t seems
that General Butler filed an affidavit in a
case which he was conducting. Judge
Carpenter looked over it and said some
of the statements in it were false. Gen.
Butler protested to the contrary. The

WASHINGTON, Dec. "A, 1913
DEAR JoHNsoN-Your request for $50
l do not think it best to comply with
Low. At the various times when have
helped you little you have said to me,
we can get along very well now, but il
very short time 1 find you in the same
difficulty again. Now, this can only
happen by some defect IN your coud act
What that defect is | think | know
You are not lazy, and still you are ar
idler. doubt whether since saw you
you have done good whole days work
in one day You do not very much
dislike to work, and still you do not
work much, merely bee, it does no.
seem to you that you could get much for
it. This habit of uselessly wasting time
is the whole difficulty, and it is vastly
important to you, and still more so to
your children, that you should break
this habit 1t is more important to them
because they have longer to live, and
can keep out of an idle habit before
they can are in it easier than they can
get out after they are in.
You are now in need of some ready
money, and what propose is that you
shall go to work, tooth and NAIL for
somebody who will give you money for
it. Let father and your boys take
charge of things at home, prepare for a
crop, and make the crop, and you go to
work for the best money wages, or in
discharge of any debt you owe, that you
can get. Aud to secure you fair le
ward for your labor, | now promise you
that for every dollar you will, between
this and the 1st of next May, get for
your own labor. either in money or in
your own Indebtedness, | will then give
hire yourself at $40 month, from me you
will get $40 more, making $50 month
In this do not mean you shall go off to
st. Louis, or the lead mines, the gold
fields in California, but I mean for you
to go at it, for the best wages you can
get close to home-in Coles county.
Now, if you will do this you will soon
be out of debt, and, what is better, you
will have habit that will keep you from
getting in debt again. But If | should
now clear you out, next year you will
be just as deep in as ever You say you
would almost give your place in heaven
for $40 or $50. Then you value your
place 10 heaven very cheaply, for l am
sure you can, with the offer | make you,
get the $40 or $50 in four or five months
work. You say if l furnish you the
money you will deed me the land, and
if you don't pay the money back you
deliver possession. Nonsense! If you
can't live with the land how will you
then live without it? You have always
been kind to me, and do not now mean
to be unkind to you. On the contrary,
if you will but follow my advice you will
find it worth more than eight times $50
to you. Affectionately your brother,
