The eggs Belong to the Farmers wife.

Inc eggs Belong 10 the FdTHhei "he'
Farmers wives have not too much
fun in their lives. Here is something
that will make glad their souls. Near
Wauhegan, ILL.,, a farm woman had pre-
pared fine basket of eggs for market.
Her husband, like too many husbands,
took it for granted that what was hers
was his and what was his was his own,
grabbed the basket of eggs and was
making off with them to sell them for
himself and keep the money The wife
resolved that he should not do it if she
could prevent, forcibly seized and at
tackled him to keep him from taking her
basket of eggs. The result was fight
that brought the matter into court.
There the justic, evidently in favor OF
the new woman, decided, that the wife
was quite justified in her attack on the
man and that the man had no right to
take the eggs. ''The eggs upon the
farm, said the judge, "belong to the
farm woman for pin money" Hearye,
Hear ye! The eggs produced upon a
farm belong by law to the farm woman,

Hot Weather Weakness.

IF you feel tagged out, listless and
lacking in energy, you are perhaps suffer
ing from the dibilitating effects of summer

the liver. This, Herbine will do; it is a
tonic, laxative and restorative. Ii. J.

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION.
An Invitation in Business Form That
Met with an Acceptance:
In Kind.


A Baltimore woman, the belle of her
set, was much surprised not long ago, says
the New York Times, to receive an invi-
tation of which the following is the SUBJ
stance:
Mr.. Blank presents his compliments to
Miss Dash, and requests the pleasure Of
her company at the theater Thursday
evening next.
Awaiting and hoping for an early and
favorable reply, we are, yours very tlely,
BLANK & Co."
The writer of this remarkable effusion
is young business man who is partner
in a large furniture concern. He attends
to a large proportion of the correspon-
dence of the firm, and, of course, signs the
firms name thereto. So absorbed was he
in business that he concluded his invita-
ton with the sterotyped sentence above,
and, to cap the climax, signed the firm s
name to it. The fair recipient, however,
appreciated the situation, and the young
man was thunderstruck to receive a let
ter addressed to him personally, but con-
taing the following reply to his invitation:
"Messrs. Blank & Co.: Your favor of
recent date to hand and contents noted.
In reply will say We accept the PROPOSE
ton therein made and hold the goods or
dered subject to yr. further instructions.
Very respectfully, Miss Dash & Co."
Explanations and apologies followed,
and the invitation was duly accepted, but
the matter was too good to be kept a
secret, and for some time after life was
made burden to that young man. Even
the meaningless query: Flows bust
ness!" suttced to drive him frantic.

THE BATTLEFIELD.
Victory in War VIII Soon Be the
Fruit of Scientific Equipment,
Training and Handling.

It is a commonly expressed belief
nowadays that in warfare, so scientific
has the art become, the courage and
grit of the individual soldier will not
count for much. Victory, it is said,
will be the fruit of scientific equip
ment, training and handling, and if he
be but scientific enough, trained to a
nicely, and is moved about the battle
field with skill, his personal strength
and nerve and stamina will not need
to be of very high order. This is not
the opinion of Linesman, the author of
"Words By an Eyewitness" While
he lays great and unceasing stress up
on the necessity for science and thor
ough training, he just strongly en-
phasizes the Importance of the morale
of the soldier. In his latest book he
shows how UNNECESSARILY greater is
the strain upon the fighter in modern
warfare than in past days. In former
times armies could maneuver and en-
camp we'll within sight of each other,
and an attack often meant nothing
but dash over a narrow zone of
ground, short, sharp struggle and a
rout. 1t was over before the blood
had time to cool, and even the timid
could be excited and sustained by the
rush and fury of the onslaught. To-
day a man may die as soon as the en-
emy's long guns, hidden away in the
distant, cloud-topped mountains, seven
miles off, begin to talk. And over that
