The business interests clustered around

There are perhaps few people. even In
this city. who appreciate the amount OF
business done in that section OF the city.
II has become the habit of a good many
people 10 lament the fact thai the rail-
roads are not doing the fair thing for
Wichita. but in spite of that fact Wichita
is doing a good deal OF business.
IN the districs mentioned are the pack
ing houses. the Union stock yards. the
Watson mills. and the Nevling and the
Stevens-Soott elevators. The last named
elevator is not quite completed, but for
about~two weeks it has been handing
grain. All Of the others have been doing
big business this year and the joint
railroad Office on Twenty first street en-
pioys six men and they are kept busy at
tending to the immense business OF that
section

A roo.srRENuous LESSON.

Mrs. Thomas Barker has overdone it. Her husband. whom she hit oil
 he head with a s.ove-lid because he said she could not make coffee like mother" is dead.
 Mrs. Barker's idea was sound. She ret'ized that it was necessary to find some more effective way of deal ing with invidious "reminiscences Of mother's cooking than wives have been accustomed 10 employ. Tears Ienunciations and threats to return 10 tbe parental roof had failed to prn- tect the wife's surpassing coffee and ambrosial griddle-cakes from insult ing comparisons with things that owed all their flavor to boys savage appe-
 ite Moral suasion having been found wanting there was nothing let but force.
 Mrs Barker's mistake was in carry ing the corrective too far. When you teach lesson you should always have the pupil alive to profit by it. OtE- erwise you will have all your trouble over again next time Had Mrs Ba- ker been Title less strenuous with the stove,lid her husband would have studiously ref-ained from mentiorin- mothers coffee again. As it is. the education of the next husband-if Mrs. Baker shall secure one-will have 10 begin at the elementary O. pre-stoye-lid stage.
