ant time with her or when more serious.
to lead you up to an offer of marriage,
which she will honestly accept, often
with the best results to yourself
1t is only when you say of a woman
that she is "a desperate f1irt" that you
may come to the conclusion that she is
coquette. OF course. when the firt is a
married woman she is a coquette: but
when she is a young girl would call her
very harmless person On the other
hand, in opposition to that epithet of
harmless, the adjective that is most COM
monty COUPLED with the word "coquette"
is, not harmless but ''heartless."
The word ''firt' comes from the
French "feureter," which means To go
from flower to flower, to touch lightly
But although the word is of French ORR
gin. the thing itself is not French.
Filtration is a pastme which is most es-
sentially English. We do not fiirt in
France We are more serious than that
IN love affairs. After all. Irritation is tri-
fling with love, and that game would be
dangerous one to play with a French
man. a woman who firted would pass
in France for giddy. If not worse. She
knows her countryman well and is aware
what she would expose herself to if she
f1irted with him.
The English girl. in flirting, does not
play with fire. Englishmen are reserved.
cold The customs of the country grant
liberty 20 the women, and they accent a
Irritation for what it IS worth The worst
they might say Of a girl is: "She is an
awful fiirt" with a mixed expression Of
pity and contempt An English girl who
has had god time al a party. A pic
mic, ball, can say Il have had such A
hirtation!' Why. she. could say that "a |

Give the Home Man Preference.

The home man spends his money
at home. He bears the burden OF
local taxation. He aids in the sup
port Of school and church. He is
part Of the social, political life OF the
place. In all local expenditures the
home man should be given preference.
The home merchants sell goods as
cheaply as their trade will warrant.
They carry stock as extensive as
their patronage will justify. II trade
was larger and more lucrative they
could afford to carry larger stocks
and possibly sell some cheaper Send

Kansas Herself Again.

This is great year in the history
OF Kansas. Besides tremendous crops
Of corn, oats, barley and rye, she will
produce not less than 10000, 900
bushels Of winter wheat. All the
crops are in excellent condition.
Prices promise to be good. Prosper
ity is beaming upon the blooming
State. There is practically nothing
in the world the matter with Kansas.
Four years Of thinking and work.
ing in the fields have raised Kansas
from low to a high place among the
great commonwealth Of the nation.
Faithful husbandry has been rewarded
a hundred-iold. All obstacles have
disappeared from the path Of the
men who were driven by dire neces.
sity to abandon theory and return to
practice. They began with the hope
Of saving their farms from foreclosure.
Today they have money to lend.
They are no longer slaves Of corpora.
tons. They are stockholders in
them.
Is it too much to hope that with
these facts in mind, the people Of
Kansas will never again forget that
the other states Of the union can be
trusted to furnish their full quota OF
statesmen, and that the fate Of the
nation does not depend altogether on
resolutions passed in Wichita, Abb
lene, Atchison or TopekaP-[Chicago
