HERE'S A HOWDY Do.
Society" Snubs a Young Woman Because
She Earns Her Living.


1t seems that Kansas City, Mo, is to
have a flower show, with one OF that
city's belle as queen Of the occasion. The
neighb ring towns are to selec5 maids of
honor to the queen from among their
own far young ladies. And thereby
hangs a tale. In Chillicothe, Mo, a
beautiful, accomplished, charming and
attractive young lady, Miss Edna Whit
ney, was a candidate for place among
emptorily debarred from the contest be-
cause, fOrsOOth, she earns an honest liv-
ing by daily toll! Miss WhitneY's moth
er is a widow. After her father died
the young lady went bravely to work to
assist her mother in educating her
younger sister. She is employed as a
shader in a tobacco factory, place
which requires great skill, keen judy
ment and perfect eyesight. On account
of her occupation Miss Whitneys candi-
dacy was greatly opposed by number Of
society women of the place. On their
own account and without consulting the
members of he local committee, they
telegraphed to Walter S. Halliwell. the
Ward McAllister of Kansas City, chair
man of the flower committee, stating
their objections, and asking that Miss
Whitney be barred as a candidate
to represent the people OF Chilli
Gothic. Acting upon this request Mr.
Halliwell telegraphed at once to the To-
cal committee: 1.-The business occupa-
ton of the lady is considered barrier. 5"
This is indeed pretty howdye do.
"Sassiely" as Sam Jones calls it, would
put a premium upon idleness. In order
to be considered among the upper

country, a young lady must sit in abiect

and gazing at the moon. The day is
coming, however, ana i. is not far dis
tant, when it will be considered no dis
grace for a southern beauty to earn a
living by her own fair fingers. For that

Why take Johnson's
Chill and Fever Tonic ?
Because it cures the

Fever in ONE DAY.
SWEETHEARTS ALWAYS.

If sweethearts were Sweetharts always.
Whether as maid or wife,
No dcop would be half as pleasant
In the mingled draught of life.
But the sweetheart has smiles and
bushes
When the wife has frowns and signs.
And the wives have a wrathful glitter
For the glow OF the sweetheart's eyes.
If lovers were lovers al ways
The same to sweetheart and wife,
Who would change for future of Eden
The joys of this checkered life?
But husbands grow grave and silent,
And care on the anxious brow
OFT replaces the sunshine that persisted
With the words of the marriage VOW.
Happy is he whose sweetheart
Is wife and sweetheart still
Whose voice as of old can charm,
Whose kiss as of old can thrill
Who has plucked the rose to find ever
Its beauty and fragrance increase,
AS the flash of passion is mellOwed
In loves unmeasured peace.
Who sees in the step a lightness.
Who finds in the firm a grace:
Who sends an unaltered brightness
In the witchery of the face.
Undimmed add unchanged All, happy
Is he crowned with such a life.
Who drinks the wife piedging the sweet
heart,
And toasts in the sweetheart the wife.
