Once upon e. time there was an amiable
and well-disposed young man who fell in
love and married. The world is full of
women. and many OF them have brains,
but this young man wished to be cozy
and comfortable, so he selected a nice lit
tie thing who had small feet and kitten
tsh ways and who was the daughter and
granddaughter of famous ~housekeepers.
He had a salary OF two thousand a year
In the credit department Of a big dry
goods house, and she kept house n
sewed and managed and made every dol
lar count One night he brought home to
dinner unexpectedly a college friend who
had suddenly turned up in town.
But, my dear" she. said, aghast,
didn't you know 1t was ironing day.? We
have nothing but a steak and pudding"
a won't mind" he answered: hes
the right Sort"
But I couldn't serve such a dinner to a
guest" she protested-and she sent the
maid bustling OF Cor lettuce and a can OF
coup and served four courses instead OF
two.

indiscretion, but looked SO vsrtuous that
he felt uncomfortable He asked nc more
friends to dinner. except by means of g.
formal note, when he might be sure OF do
ing his duty by society with q banquet OF
eight courses. In a year or two at Christ
mas time his salary was raised a thou

J by sending fifty to an old servant Of his
mothers who was now bringing up ou

servant and the seven children were SO
pleased that he felt generous. But one
thought troubled him. -
II wonder why the poor have SO many
children and we have none" he said at
last. RS -
His wife said nothing. but privately she
thought 1t was Just as well. Children
were a trouble to have and a trouble to
take care of, and they kept the house in
disorder. She aad her husband were more
coy and comfortable as they were.
As the years went on he p~rospered and
she managed, and they became rich n
lived in a fine house and went In the best
society. Their little dinners were quite
famous, and she dressed in the most dis
erect taste and kept her kittenish ways.

together so much that nothing could

The Nashville, Chattanooga &

and to engage the attention OF
capitalists seeking manufacturing
sites or mining property. 1t there

ment earnestly requests that all

scription of the same to the rail
road agent nearest them, giving
the prices and terms of sale. The
prices must correspond with the
prices asked of local buyers. The

aid in selling land to immigrants

CURRENT COMMENTS

The Supreme Court of Wisconsin
has declared invalid a law taxing
ice sent out of the State 10 cents a
ton. 1t was unconstitutional.
DR.. Pietri, of Nice, France, re-
ports the cure of number of cases
of smallpox by the use OF live or

The word tariff comes from the
name of a Spanish town, Tarlta,
where a robber baron of the sea
extorted tribute from all merchants
passing through the Straits of Glib

It is a logician's puzzle to explain
why protectionists still fight for
high tariff rates and boast at the
same time of their ability to sell
American goods in foreign markets
cheaper than at home.
Legislation for the Filipinos is
not taken up with so much assur-
ance as formerly. 1t has been
found that avoidance of the Scylla
of public opinion i'll the United
states leads to the Charybdis OF the
