lie Was Happy,


When Mr.. Youngwife came home
that night he sighed dismally, then
hoisted his feet to the mantelshelf, after
the fashion of dreaming man.
A light hand was laid on his shoulder,
and a silvery voice chirruped:
my dear, you mustn't do that; it is
such bad form. If you want to rest
your tired feet use this lovely little stool
that made, all covered with roses"
Later on he threw down his paper and
yawned.
MY dear, you mustn't do that. 1t is
such bad form. If you want to put your
paper aside, use that lovely little receiv-
er on the wall there that l embroidered
all in violets and pansies."
Later still he struck match on his
trousers to light his pipe.
my dear, you mustn't do that. 1t is
bad form. If you want to strike a match
use that lovely little wall mat with

AT breakfast he aimlessly dripped
some coffee over piece of bread.
My Gear, you mustn't do that. 1t is
such bad form. Never let me see YOU
do that again. Every time you wish to
eat toasJ watch me; my way is exactly
the same as that of dear mamma"
In the street car he thoughtlessly
crossed his feet.
MY dear" some one whispered, edo
not do that. 1t is such bad form. You
know yOu never would have done that
before we were married 1t is some
thing mamma told Inc to be particularly
careful about"
Next evening he threw his shaving
paper III the woodbox.
my dear, you mustn't do that. 1t is
such bad form. Mamma always makes
papa throw his papers in the fire. Use
that lovely little holder filled with cute
little red, white and blue shaving pa
pers, all embroidered with forgetmenots,
just as mamma planned out for YOU"
After the funeral, two months later,
she was saying, as she united the black
| strings of her mourning bonnet, and a
few friends remained to console her:
"Dear Tommy, II never knew what
killed him. He was so good, and we
were growing more and more like each
other every day"
yes" said Mrs. McGann sympathet-
ically.
"He had his own way in everything.
| He was so good about the house. We
never had a cross word. Then, when
thought our lives were a dream, he just
up and died"

The Popular Demand.

Fran the ALchfSon Champion
The contest for governor in Kansas this
year, unlike those of former gubernatorial
campaigns. is distinguished by the fact that.
while in former campaigns the politicians ran
things to suit themselves. wholly ignoring the
people--in the selection of their candidate, tits
year the rule is reversed to very large extent,
and the peOpIe-the rank and file of the Re-
publican party, propose to ignore the dxers
and select candidate most acceptable TO
them.
The proof of this assertion may be found IN
the fact that. while a number of candidates
have already been brought forward by the
fixers, yet the only prominent candidate. and
the candidate by the way, who has developed
phenomenal strength all over the state, and
whose candidacy is more in the nature OF
spontaneous popular demand, is Marshall NJ.
N. Murdoch of Wichita.
Colonel Murdock's candidacy was not en-
gineered by politicians; it did not originate as
the part of a carefully prepared scheme con-
cocted in some out of the way upper room by a
handful of political professionals, who devised
it as a means to some ulterior motive
and the chief purpose of which was
their own personal ACCOMPLISHMENT, bat
it somehow sprang into being as the result OF
deep-seated and long cherished conviction
among large number of the rank and file of
Kansas Republicans that Colonel Murdoch, at
this particular time, is by all odds not only
the must available candidates but that he
richly deserves the honor of being selected as
the candidate for governor because of his long,
faithful and valuable services both TO the
party and the state.
These two facts, coupled with the additional
fact of his personal worth and eminent fitness
for the position, crystalized into the demand
| on the part of the people that he enter the
race, and. in obedience TO this unsought. I'M
planned call Colonel Murdoch responded and
allowed himself to be announced as guber
material candidate.
Fromthe very day his name was publicly
mentioned in this connection his candidacy
has steadily grown until at present it is one OF
the most fiattering proportions and of signif-
cant emphasis. Its origin. progress and pres
ent status combine TO show that it is an almost
unprecedented popular demand regardless OF
the plans OF wire pulling and scheming poll
ticans. If the fixers take the hint this move
meat in favor of Colonel Murdoch conveys,
and fall in with it, they will display good po-
litical sense and at the same time save them
selves from the humiliation Of being badly

TO QUE FARMER READERS.

The twelve or thirteen thousand read
ers of the weekly EAGLE in Southern
Kansas will find an article in the cur
rent issue of both our daily and weekly
editions, from the pen of Prof. George
son, of the state agricultural college,
which ought to be given a careful read
ing. Professor Georgeson spent last
week in Southern Kansas and the article
was prepared at the instance eff the FL
Dorado Republican for the benefit of
several Butler county farmers who are
growing alfalfa. 1t is an indisputable
farmers have grown indepedent,i in few
years, from the cultivation of alfalfa.
1t comes early and stays late, and some
farmers are claiming that for hogs and
cattle it is more valuable per acre than
corn. w. T. Jewett, one of the Oldest
and most successful farmers in Sedgwick
county, after several years trial declares
that alfalfa is the coming thing for
farmers in Southern Kansas. Walter
Treadwell of Harper county purchased,
last week, 200 bushels of alfalfa seed
at cost OF upwards of $1,000, which he
will sow this spring.
The main thing with alfalfa is to get
good stand. A poor stand is not worth
keeping. In the porous subsoil of South
ern Kansas, where the roots go down
anywhere from five to eighteen feet, no
drouth or adverse weather of any char
acter can kill it, nothing but the stand
ing waters of food.
