In spite Of the number Of nnem-
ployed in our cities, especially Of
girls thrown out OF work by the pres
ent depression, housekeepers find it
impossible e. get a girl 10 80 out Of
the city to do homework for any con
sideration. The excuse is given that
these girls are not trained to do house
work, that they are not strong enough,
etc. Ii certainly seems as il any sem
sible girl would prefer housework in
a pleasant country home. 10 starya-
lion. and any girl who is strong
enough TO answer the demands Of
modern city business life, win surely
not be ovcr-burdened by the work IN
an ordinary country family. Tnis
domestic problem is daily assuming a
more serious aspect, and the only true
solution will be in training girls 50 as
to overcome the false pride with which
housekeeping is now regarded, and in
raising it to the dignity Of other pro-
fessions.

Pete, Peter, Pumpkin eater,
Had wife, "a nervous creeter,"
And tho he loved his wife quite we'll,
he often wished she was in-heaven-
Home he came one day in sorrow
Saying, "We must move eto-morrow;
The landlord longer will not wait,
Nor will his rent one bit aoate
Then Mrs. Peter rose from bed
And, in falsetto tones, she said
You lazy, dirty, drunken brute,
Vi drinking rum, this is the fruit.
"You know you might have plenty oil
work
u you were not a drunken shirk-
10 make excuse, you need not bother,
go 10 day, to live with Mother"
his wife was right in what she said;
he seldom earned their daily bread.
But spent his earnings all for rum,
and now the "rainy day" had, come.
L he had taken "Morrell Cure"
From rum and gin he would have peeh
pure.
his wife would then been kind and true
AND never left in such a stew.

OH, WHAT GALL!
INCONSISTENCY HAS ITS ABODE IN
THE REPUBLICAN PARTY.

Last year the republican cry was
s'Stand up for Kansas" and yet they
maligned the state with every breath
they drew. This year their cry is,
Redeem the State - But look Oil
the following picture and judge for
yourself of their inconsistency. They
present list of candidates with hardly
an honest man on it.
Morrill, extorted money from the old
settlers in Washington and other cOun-
ties to which he had not shadow of
acclaim.
Blue got $4,000 out of. his home
bank on his worthless paper.
Dawes collected $500 insurance
money which he has not accounted
for.
Chester I. Long has record second
only to that of Breckenridge.
These are some of the charges made
through the public press that have
never been denied.
A nice lot of redeemers They ha6
better redeem their candidates before
they talk of redeeming the state. l.
they would make their battle cry
Purify the Republican Party" ther'
might be some hope for them.
