THE HOODOOEn GALE

The husband of Mrs. Carrie Nation
has given a stock breeder permission to
name a Hereford calf for his wife. The
action not only reveals the fact that
there is a Mr. Nation, but enables the
ordinary man to catch a glimpse at the
privileges enjoyed by the husband of
a great woman. Mr.. Nation evidently
has free access to the storehouse of his
wife's fame and may any time crafty
his appetite for notoriety by the selec-
ton of such morsels as may suit his
taste. Marriage is not a failure. Had
Mr.. Nation remained single, it is posi-
BILE that his name would not have been
heralded in print, unless by the laggard
courtesy of a delinquent tax list He
may have to answer to his wife for
the absence of buttons, the loss of
safety pins, the dilatory action of the
laundry man or the irregularity of
meals, but ample compensation is found
in the untrampled right to dispense the
family name and to bask in its efful-
gence.
The effect of the honor on the growth
and disposition of the calf will be
watched with interest-Price Advo-
