Charley" said the young wife tenderly
as she kissed him goodby preparatory to
his going down town, 'the cook is taking a
holiday today. and the dinner you will get
when you come home will be entirely Of
my cooking. II will be my first. Charley,
dear, and won't it be lovelyi"
She twittered softly at the thought, and
Charles turned his face away so she could
not see the lines upon it, for he loved this
wife Of his and would not for worlds do or
say aught to wound her feelings.
Delightful" he responded, stroking her
sunlit hair, land I'll bring those good
friends Of ours, the pastor and the physi-
clan, along to be with US"

New Yorl. women and Real Estate.

Women are getting a foothold in the
real estate business in this city. Neces-
sity is usually the cause, but results So
far have been most satisfactory. Agnes
Murphy, now Mrs. Mulligan, who has
for several years been the only woman
member Of the exchange, is likely soon
to have company with the admission Of
Mrs. S. NJ Blakeley. who has taken
charge of the business which her hus-
band conducted until his death year
ago. 1t will be remembered that Miss
Murphy succeeded to the business left
bv the death of her father, and devel-
oped it far beyond any plans which he
entertained. Mrs. Blakeley seems to
have had similar good fortune with the
business of her husband, having already
negotiated several important sales.
Some Of the largest syndicate operations
in the annexed district were organized
and carried through by Miss Murphy.
Several other women have also taken
hold of this business, left them as theil
only legacy. They are all earnest and
persistent. and have done so well as &c
compel the respect of everybody in the

Many girls believe that their possibii-
ties are inferior 20 those Of boys. and
thereby their best efforts are hindered.
1t is an erroneous belief. and n girl
should maintain the opposite opinion
without fear or favor. She need not be
an egotist nor indulge in overweening
self confidence, but simply rise above
the false sentiment that girls are more
''the creatures Of circumstances than
boys. Too many are so content with
the actual that they do not aspire after
the possible. They accept the present
situation as if change for better or worse
were out of the question. Perhaps they
are wholly unconscious Of their reserved
powers-do not even reflect that the mind
is capable of constant and eternal prog
ress. Hence they do not dream that they
may become superior to misfortune and
sorrow, greater than vicissitudes and
trials. and abundantly qualified for the
highest positions. They live dependents
ly, languidly and hopelessly. Lacking
the inspiration Of conscious greatness
they settle down into unwomanly little
ness to become the sport Of a change OF
fortune and be miserable thereafter
Girls should feel that such an experience
is both unnecessary and degrading; that
even the reverses Of life may be made
subservient to mental and moral tn

Republican Milton Made a Lord.

Ny Paris correspondent writes, Deep
ly rs British civic corporations are sunk
in snobbisni. none Of them ever fell so
low as, in naming a street after the hero
of Trafalgar or Of Waterloo, to CT isten

My correspondent underestimate the
depth of snobbism in civic human ma
ture. There is. it appears, Lord Nell
son street" in Liverpool. Even this is
outdone in Newcastle-on-Tyne Some
years ago that city boasted of two Byron
streets and two Milton streets. In order
to get rid Of the consequent confusion,
the corporation, instead Of altering

hit on the beautiful plan Of turning one
thoroughfare into Lord Nelson street
and another into Lord Milton street,
and so the names remain to this day.

John Arntson on Friday the 18th
December, 1893, when two men came
in, and after warming themselves at
the stove, one of them took from his
pocket a paper. Mr.. Arntson asked
him what that was and he said you
will sOon see, and then he opened
his coat and showed his star. He
then read the paper, and after some
words had passed between them Mr..
Arntson went to thegbarn, where he
was soon followed by the two men
and myself. When | reached the
barn, Arntson was using a hammer
fixing the manger, declaring they
should not take his horses with his
leave when the deputy ran behind
him, and wrenched the hammer from
him, they then got a halter and tied
it round one of his wrists, he then
called to me to run for his wife.

party-their teamster-to stop me OIL

seized and ordered to throw up my
hands, and SO kept a prisoner. | was
asked if Mr.. Arntson had a gun,

the gun, and placed it in the sleigh

NUTLEY. FEB. 5, 1894.
ED. REPORTER AND FARMER:

NUTLEY. FEB. 5, 1894.
Ed. REPORTER AND FARMER:
| do not wish to hold any contro-
versy with any one, but l must con-
tradict the article published in the
Day County Herald of the 4th, ult.,
in relation to the conduct of the Dep
uty Sheriff and his assistant stewards
me on the 18th of December last.
The Herald says: The TRUTH of the
matter in brief is as follows" /
would like to know from what source
this truth" was obtained. 1t could
only be from the Deputy or his con-
federates.
1t is not pleasant to impeach the
veracity of anyone, neither is it very
agreeable to hear anyone's truthful
ness impugned. But do most en-
Phatically say that there is not one
word Of truth in the Heralds state
ment, deny in toto that | store
the summons in shreds," or that my
horses we're "mortgaged," or hat |
''menaced" the deputy either with a
"pitchfork" or a hammer and who
ever says that | told the boy ''to 90
to the house for the gum tells a pos
tive falsehood. The Herald says,
"any unprecedented person even if he
had not heard his (the deputy's) side
of the question would not believe the
Nutley letter" Why! does the Edi-
tor think that all our self-estimation
is gone? If he does, let me disabuse
his mind. | think that anyone read
ing HIS version of the story, cannot
fail to see at a glance that it is writ
ten with partiality. | wish to say
that | bear no malice, nor have |
made any "ungrounded attacks
upon anyone.
| simply want justice, and my
rights as a citizen. l make no apol-
ogy, knowing | have said nothing
but the truth. / have in my posses
sion the papers it is claimed l tore in
shreds that were served upon me by
the deputy, whole and in as good
condition as when | received them,
undisputable evidence | should think
that even deputy sheriffs are liable to
make mistakes, or perhaps troubled
with short memories. | should be
glad if you give this a place in your
next issue, and also the following
affidavit.
Yours very truly,
John ARSTSON.
