THE WAR SCARE.

1t Has Induced a chicago woman to be
Tenderiy Anxious About Her Husband.
From the Chicago Record.
This war scare has been bad
thing" said one man to another on an
Alley IL" train.
"Oh, / don't know" replied the other.
TITS helped me a great deal"
II didn't know IL had helped any
one"
That's because you're not a married
man. It's a curious fact that in the
discussion of this Venezuelan business
no one has discovered that the mar
ried woman are more panic-stricken
than Wall street was"
"How's that?"
why, every married man of fight
ing age has been telling his wife that
IL the worst comes to the worst he VIII
have to enlist and go out and fight for
his country. AS soon as they began
, to talk war / sprung that on my wife
/ said hoped the thing would be set
tied peaceably. but IL we had TO hght
to maintain our national honor i was
willing, for one, to help uphold the
flag. 'What?' she says, you don't
mean to say that you'd leave me and
the children and march away to be
killed or wounded?' Why not?' says
/. Some one will have to CO. Then
she said she hoped there wouldn't be
Il Il
but / was mighty afraid we couldn't
| fix the matter up without a scrap.
"She believed you, eh?'
well, you couldn't blame her for
! being a little worried. She's been ask
ing me every day to promise her to
stay at home, no matter what nap
pened I've told her i simply cannot
make such a promise. l believe She
| come to regard me as a very warlike
| person, and she's half convinced that
! I'm liable to put on a uniform and
| leave home any day"
81 don't believe you are very anxious
| to fight"
81 should say not. This thing OF go
ing TO the front would bother me more
than 1t would her, but tell you it's a
great thing to have a war cloud hang
ing over a household. Why, we haven't
had a cross word in our house for two
weeks. She has used all of her blan-
dishments to suhdue my bloodthirsty
Intentions / was out until 2 O'Clock
New Years morning and she never
said a word Only the next morning
she brought up the war question agar
and wanted me to promise. And II
bet you that if did promise her she'c

of Hyde county, n. c.. during the win

down there, but when they do come
they come sudden, and they stick right
fast to things when they come, too.
"One OF the best times to bag wild
geese is early in the morning, just be-
fore they get up from their sleeping
places on the water. and start for
business Whenever 1 want a goose

time last winter that I was pining for
wild goose and l got up early in the
morning and went out to Lake Malta

out of the club house l noticed that
one of those Hyde county cold snaps
had dropped down on US during the
night, and everything was just ting

II crept through the bushes on the
edge of the lake. and seems to me l
had never seen IL look so CLASSY and

to rout 'em out so early. but II can't
