Homilies For the Home.

The most becoming thing to any
woman is that which she can best af.
ford to wear
Overdressed people convey the i'm
preston that they are mortgaged tc
their clothes.
Don't expect a ruthlessly plucked
husband enthusiastically to indorse the
assertion that fine feathers make fine
birds.
Your wife can tell you just how
much you really know about women
but she won't.
If you trust your wife half as much
as you do your banker the chances arc
more than two to one that she won't
be the first to break.
Many much-envied society woman
can tell you how hopelessly empty is a
life filed with money. - New York

how skillfully the spider manages her
huge prey. The instant 1t become en-,
tangled she rushes to it and, spreading
her spinnerets far apart, she fastens a
broad sheet Of silk to it; then by a few
deXterOus kicks she rolls it over two or
three times, and 1t is securely swad.

little web, which he builds near the

Witt, near Syracuse, to Albany, last

heaviest tonnage ever hauled by a

Site For the 1zInr,s snnntnrin,n.

A site Of 100 acres at Lords Com.

selected for the Kings Sanatorium, the
erection Of which was made possible
by the muniicenceof Sir Edward Cas-.
sci. 1t would be difficult to find more
healthy place. The elevation ranges
from 500 to 600 feet above the sea
level, and is in the midst of charming
scenery and a pine forest. In the
spring rhOdodendrons flourish here
probably better than in any spot in
England. With the South Downs in
the distance, and the pretty River
Rother at the bottom of the valley, ii
makes an ideal site for a sanatorium.

Rocky Ford enterprise., 1902-11-07
"The Englenook" to Write Up the
Rocky Ford Country.

The Englenook" is the name Of a
handsome and valuable weekly literary
magazine published at Elgin, Ill.,, under
the auspices Of the German Baptist
church. Once each month an illustrated
state edition is issued, and the editor, El-
der Howard Miller, is now in Colorado
gathering material for the Colorado issue.
Elder Miller was in Rocky Ford yester-
day in company with C. L. Seagrave, Of
the Santa Fe, both of whom made the
Enterprise an interesting call Elder Mil
Ter confesses that his ideas of sugar
factory were very crude before he visited
Rocky Ford He perhaps had sort Of
vague impression that sugar beets were
something Of the nature of sorghum, which
specially enterprsing farmers could work
into sugar on their own ranches. But at
the American Beet Sugar Cos. factory
he found thousand tons of beets in one
place and sugar pouring out into bags at
another-but there was million dollar
pile Of machinery between the two points.
Mr.. Miller is great traveller, close OBJ
server and a graphic writer, and we shall
expect highly interesting article in The
: Englenook on the Arkansas valley, which
he has very properly sized up as the best
agricultural section Of Colorado.
