HIS WlFE's ADVICE.
Gen. Forest. Last Gambling Experience

Gen. Bedford Forrest, Of Tennessee,
was probably entitled to the distinc-
ton, acknowledged in the south, OF
having KILLED more men with his sa-
Der than any other officer or private
soldier on either side" After the war
Forrest was for quite while in
Strengthened circumstances financially.
He had been a gambler but had re-
formed under his wifes influence. Mrs.
Forrest was a most amiable woman, a
devout Christian and, the only person
in the world who could control her hus-
bands temper. Forrest looked about
in vain for some remuuerative position
which he might be fitted to fill This
was in Memphis. Finally, one night in
desperation he said to his wife;
Mary, there is ten dollars-all on
earth there is between us and the poor
honse Now, why can't go out and
hunt up game of draw?"
Mrs. Forrest protested stoutly She

could come to them through the gam
bling den; that it would be better to
starve with clear conscience than to
prosper by any such disreputa-
BILE means. Forrest listened with
out reply, folded the ten dol
lar bill and replaced it in his
pocket. He was a man Of desperate
purposes and withal remarkably sensi-
tive. He thought the matter out very
seriously indeed. On the one hand was
actual want and the disgrace of debt
on the other possibility of comfort.
That ten dollar bill was the key to the
dilemma. lie decided at last to disobey
his wife for once and stake his little all
at the card table.
The cards ran his way" from the
first, and his winnings grew so large
that he placed his hat down on the flool
beside him and used it as depositc ~
for gold and bank notes, He played
until two o'clock, going home then with
one thousand five hundred dollars
From that day until the day of hi
death, though he never resumed his ole
gambling habits again, Forrest nevel
knew the need of money.-N. Y. Adver

UNNECESSARY HOUSEWORK.

Strength.


Strength.
1t takes some good Judgment on the
part of the housekeeper to know where
and how to slight her work. We sec
housekeepers who go through their
daily and yearly round of work, doing
all things well, and doing the unim-
portant things as well as the most i'm
portant ones. Such housekeeper if
she does her own work, is of course a
drudge, as any person must be who lays
out the same amount of effort on all
things, regardless of the results, and
who neglects nothing that may be made
a subject of work. Some housewives
have n faculty for making work where
there is no need for it; they are natur-
ally industrious and love cleanliness,
and their life is constant warfare
against speck of dust or misplaced
chair or something else that offends the
imagination more than any require
ments of their existence. With these
people the game is too often not worth
the powder that they expend to bring
it down. They are not discriminating
in the application of their labor, and
are just as likely to direct it where il
shows no result as where it does
These women never say die, and if Their
back is broken their spirit is not. Their
treadmill is largely of their own crea
ton, There is houseworll that is real
ly created by the worker. The science
of housekeeping calls for the suppress.
sion of work as we'll as for its correct
performance, and these housekeepers
who are necessarily planning work
might better lay their plans to make
some of their work unnecessary. Farm

A COMMON SENSE CRUSADE.
English Women Moving for Short Out
Door skirts.

DoOr
BY way of protest against the mani.
fest inconvenience of wearing a long
and trailing skirt on the highway, an
association of sensible young women in
Nottingham, England, have adopted
the fashion of short petticoats for their
walks abroad. The women of England
are persuading fashionable tailors to
make short costumes for their outdoor
expeditions natty and trim, and finished
with facing of soft leather, easily
cleansed when splashcd This costume
requires a wcll-ftting boot, since il
necessarily leaves the foot exposed to
view. 1t is to be hoped that the day oil
short skirts for outdoor wear will soon
dawn for all healthy women.
For the drawing room nothing is SC
beautiful as the trained skirt. 1t con.
veys with it traditions of the past
when queens stepped proudly over pal
ace floors. Every fair woman is queen
in her own right, and her sweeping
garments emphasize her stateliness il

or an abysmal rural road, what so for
lorn as lady clutching frantically al
her dignity and the hem of her bes'
gown, and vainly trying to keep W

band in the race of life?

reformers are tribe in advance of wha'

shake the lines out, free and gay,
The sleigh bells chime, AMI we're away.
Across the crisp and glittering snow,
Leaving behind the city street,
Its garish glare and noise, we go
Into the darkness, still and sweet
And, here and there, a household CLEAN
Fits by us In flying dream!
How speed the horses, gayly driven
The sweet bells scatter silvery mirth,
and every star is white in heaven;
And every field is white on earth
How dark the brightness seems how bright
The darkness Of the winter night!
We race the open road like wind
But In the dim and shadowy lanes,
Our wild pace slackens, and find
One hand enough to hold the reins;
And, somehow when l try TO speak,
My words are kisses on her cheek
All! life is fair, in many ways,
And full OF dear enchanting hours!
And love Is sweet In summer days,
Mid blossoming paths and sylvan bowers,
But let me choose, all bliss above,
