How Woman Upheld Her Reputa-
ton For Economy.
/ She was the wife Of an official of a
st. raul street corporation. Her one
pet hobby was economy. Though her
husband made an excellent salary. she
was rigid In her rules pertaining to the
buying OF the necessaries for the
household. She would haunt bargain
counters and market stalls for hours in
order to get the benefit of a reduction
'of few cents on the article desired.
8. Inc corporation official, with much
laughter. used to tease his better half
about what he called her "stinginess."
SO one day. feeling hurt at his ridicule.
she resolved to take him to market
with her and demonstrate beyond a
uouDt that she was most economical
buyer. He consented, stipulating that
ne was not to be asked to carry tho
basket.
Arriving at the market. she made
several purchases, and then at one
stall inquired the price of eggs.
What" she exclaimed, "16 cents a
dozen! No, indeed. that is too high"
she dragged her reluctant husband
AFTER her from one stand to another
sun lnqlirng the price of eggs and al.
ways receiving the same answer until
near the upper end Of the market
Hefe she found dealer who offered
~ sell ner eggs In any quantity for Is |
cents. 10 her husband she said low.
ously: '~'
There, l told you 50. Why. those
others were robbers"
turning to the salesman, she ordered
aalf dozen eggs. gravely handed him
the cents asked In payment and
went home, prattling away about the
worth OF economy in marketing and
me alleged willingness of dealers n
souge the unsuspecting customer
And to this day she does not know
nat her husband and his friends

GOVERNOR HUM has signed the most
of the bills passed by the Legislature,
but there was one of the five or six that
failed to get his endorsement that
seems to be meeting with general APP
prOval-the use of live pigeons at
shooting matches Delaware has upon
its statute books, as have many of the
States of the Union, laws against the
slaughtering and manning of birds for
sport, but by a strenuous effort an act
was passed repeating this law. Be-
tween the repeating of the old act and
the time limit of the Governors,
thinking the repeal was secure, a
shooting match was held in Whining
ton notorious for its cruelty, which
aroused public sentiment. The So
ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals interested itself in the matter
and was backed in its efforts to prevent
the bill from becoming law by scores
of law and order loving citizens.

The Delaware Ledger utters a sur
prise as to the condition of student life
at Newark. 1t says:
The question is frequently asked,
why don't more of the students attend
church? They probably come from
religious communities and Christian
families. Their parents have no doubt
trained them at home to wait upon the
worship of God. Why have so many
of them apparently forgotten this the
most important of all lessons of life?
There can be no complete education
where the Creator and Author of all
good is ignored. Nor can it be urged
as an excuse for nOn-attendauce that
sound instruction in religion is not
given in the churches here. For abil
ity and faithfulness the pastors of our
Newark churches will compare favor
ably with that of any other section of
the State The worship is elevating
and refining, salutary and inspiring"

The Baltimore Sun of Thursday
says: Owing to the continued preva-
lence of smallpox at several points in
Sussex county, Del, which county adj
joins four counties of the State of
Maryland, DIR. John S. Fulton, secre-
tary of State Board of Health, believes
that it is necessary that an order
should be passed to protect the citizens
of Maryland who live along the border
line, and for this purpose he intends to
notify the general managers of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, the Baltimore,
Chesapeake & Atlantic Railways, and
the New York, Philadelphia & Nor
folk railroad not to sell tickets between
any points in Sussex county, Del, and
the State of Maryland. This will
mean that a strict quarantine is to be
enforced against Sussex county. This
may be a severe blow for the berry
pickers in Sussex county.

THERE seems to be a ruction between
the Constitutional Convention of Cuba
and our Government over the cOndi-
tions contained in the Platt amend
ments. They were rejected by vote
of % to 10. The condition of things is
thus stated by the Philadelphia Rec
ord:
''NOw that the Cuban Constitutional
Convention has by a two-thirds vote
declared it's opposition to the Platt
amendment one is inclined to ask what
were the foundations of the sanguine
expectation of the administration that
the Cubans would ''yield." A partial
answer may be found in the wording
of the resolution as adopted by the
Convention which states the grounds
Of the opposition to be ''terms of same
of clauses (of the Platt amendment)
and the way in which they are drawn
Three clauses are named as being OBJ
5ectionable in substance as well as in
form. These are clauses III VI and
VII, wherein it was proposed to cOufer
upon the right of intervention to man
tain domestic tranquility, to exclude
the Isle of Pines from the Constitu-
tional boundaries of Cuba and to au-
thoriZe the establishment of naval sta
tiOns by this Government at various
points on the Cuban coast hereafter to
be determined. 1t may be assumed
therefore, that the other terms con-
tanned in the Platt amendment
namely, those limiting the insular
Governments powers to make loans
and negotiate and looking to the crea-
tion of exceptionally intimate CONNER
cial relations between Cuba and this
country would not have been repug-
nant to the views of the Convention.
For one thing, then, our terms were
rejected because We asked too much.

The Pr0Ofreader.

An anonymous writer in the Ameri-
can Printer Of New York city says:
'"The ideal proofreader for small
printshop ought to be an accomplished
printer, sensible person, a person un-
derstanding the scope and limitations
Of the English language, one compre-
hending the true Offices Of punctuation,
one with keen and true appreciation
of literature, a storehouse Of exact
knowledge, perfect grammarian, a
perfect speller and with fund of hu-
NOR sufficient to enable him to do his
whole duty along these various lines
without making for an early grave. If
he does not really know everything, he
ought assuredly to be able to scent out
an error and to know how to get at
the truth. If he reads the proofs for a
weekly newspaper also, he ought to
know all about local affairs and all
about the town or city in order to pre-
vent the reported marriage of the girl
who merely acted as bridesmaid and
untangle the mixed topography of the
reporters articles"
