Woman's WAYS.

From the Detroit Free Press.
A woman sees more things in Heav
en- and earth than are dreamed of II
mans philosophy.
She's as full OF sweetness and char
ity as man is full OF mule-sense and
egotism.
She can manage a man by making
| the vain hunk believe he manages
her.
She can tell you better how much
principal there is in a man to the
square inch of his face than you could
discover by q months dealing with
him.
She will marry a man to reform"
him, and though clothed in rags de.
clare that she is happy with the
brute.
She can't throw a stone because
she isn't built that way, but she can
fire world of pathOs into an appeal
for q new dress that will burst the
toughest purse strings assunder.
She Is usually more adept at max
ing matches than at striking them,
and, while she may not know how to
sHarpen knife, she can in two min :
ute hone up her tongue in a way that
will make it sharper than two
edged sword.
She may not be able to jump four
rallied fence, but she jumps to con-
illusions, and nine times out, of ten
she gets there while man is reason
ing it all out.
She can quicken a mans mental
faculties by giving him pieces of her
mind. She doesn't seem to feel the
loss, either.
True, she spends much of her time
before the glass; but so does q man,
only his too often has bead on it.
According to some, she was called
woman because she brought woe to
man. This Interpretation, however,
is not only not scriptural, but Is not
borne out by the facts.
She is also called a con undrum; but
we will never give her up-never.
With all her faults, we love her
still.
But, as she is seldom still, we shall
have to throw the mantle of charity
over that one too.
The perfect woman is q rara avis;
and should she, by any accident,
cross your path, young man, don't be
disappointed if you find her in quest
of . perfect man.

a MIS-

A mistake is often made by persons in
need of medical treatment, in not placing
their case into the hands of a specialist,
as it stands TO reason that doctor max
ing a speciality of a certain line of diseases
is more competent than the family physi-
clan or general practitioner who tries to
cover the whole field of Medicine and
Surgery. DR.. J. n. HATHAWAY. of
this city, is true specialist in his line.
A regular graduate from one of the best
colleges in America, as his diploma shows;
he also has had large experience in leads
ing hospitals and at Hot Springs, Ark.
therefore, if you seek his advice you are
sure of getting the BEST.

Artesian Wells on the Plains.

The statement of Mr.. Robert Hay
to the effect that he had found upon
the plains sufficient artesian water to
irrigate one-fourth of the country he
had examined makes the outlook for
the plains region better than it was
commonly supposed to be. Mr.. Hay
is the chief geologist of the artesian
and underfow investigation of the
department of agriculture, and his
opinion is therefore valuable.
He says also: 81 have found on
the level plains a good supply of
water at depth varying from 200 to
800 feet" 1t appears that this water
does not rise in the wells above the
2O0-foot level, and that, therefore, 1t
is necessary to pump it in order 10
get it to the surface. But there is no
doubt that cheap pumps strong
enough for this service will in time
be made, although it appears that at
present the pumping machinery Is
not perfect enough for this work OF
course the difficulty is not to build a
pump strong enough to lift the water
200 feet. There are thousands of
such pumps in the mining region.
The problem is to make such pumps
cheap enough to bring them within
the reach of an ordinary farmers
purse.
In connection with the pumping
apparatus it would be necessary to
have reservoirs In which to store the
water for use as occasion might re-
quire. These reservoirs can be filed
and emptied repeatedly; and SO II
would not be necessary for a farmer
to go to the expense of building q
reservoir large enough TO hold all the
water he might have occasion to use
during the course of the season.
According to Mr.. Hays estimate
there are upon an average 160 acres
of land in each square mile which
can be irrigated from artesian wells.
In other words there are some 10000
square miles Of land in the eastern
part of this state which can be placed
under tillage, to say nothing of graz
ing or pasture land, which would
have to depend upon ordinary rain
fall. Fifty people to the square mile
would be a small allowance, but, tax
ing that as basis. the plains region
would support 100000 inhabitants
This is more than the present popu-
latlon of the entire state.-DenUer
Republican.
