WIVES AND INCOMES.
A Methodist Preacher Makes an Epi-
gram Concerning Them.

People celebrate the discovery of
new fact in nature. They grow elo-
quent over the invention of new piece
of machinery They heap riches in
the lap of the man who puts on the
market new breakfast food. Why
should they not pay some slight tribute
to the author of new epigram? asks
the Rutland (Vt) News.
IL the saying express a great truth
In few words, if it shine with the CLINT
of homely humor, if its appeal be
broad and general, so may it be de-
cided whether the epigrammatic offer
ing be genuine or only clever imita
ton.
Apply these standards to the rough
and uncut, vet precious, phrase which
lies imbedded in the speech of a plain
Methodist minister from the up state
counties of New York and Vermont,
delivered the other day before the con
ference OF his brethren in this district
He was telling of the hard work and
small pay which are the lot of him
self and his fellows in the poorer dis
tricts of the country And he closed
With this tremendous question, "How
shall q man support sealSkln Wife
on muskrat income?" The epigram
may provoke a smile, perhaps. but that
same question, never before so we'll
put, has vexed many other men, III and
out OF the ministry. Attempts to an
swcr it have ended before now in the
penitentiary. 1t is that question, II
authorities ere to be believed, which
is responsible for the increasing num-
Der of bachelors. particularly in the
cities, and for the corresponding in
crease in the number of middle aged
spinsters. 1t is q question which
might, possibly, be probably debated
by some of the women's clubs.
Are too many girls of the present day
being reared in way which fits them
only to be "sealskin wives?" And
where shall the young man with a
"muskrat income" look for proper
helpmate?
At any rate, the new epigram cuts
deep and raises serious questions. 1t
deserves a permanent place in the
archives of the English language
alongside that other classic, but still
sparkling, saying, which describes the
plight of the unfortunate youth who
acquired ga champagne appetite with
a beer income" 1t is it's companion

Details of Ships In Russia's Flying
Squadron.

Squadron.
First among Russia's still untouched
resources must be reckoned the Nladi-
vostok flying squadron, of which we
have heard so much, says Charles
Johnston in Harper's Weekly.
The biggest ship in the Nladivostok
squadron is the Gromoboi, Of 1886
tons displacement, and therefore heav-
Ter by $500 tons than the heaviest
cruiser in the Japanese fleet, and out
stripping our own heaviest cruiser by
an even greater amount. She has
primary battery of four eight-incb
quick firing guns in armor casemates,
supported by sixteen siX-inch quick
firing guns and no less that forty-eight
of lesser caliber with five torpedo
tubes. This big ship can Go twenty
knots and is exceeded in weight by
only four cruisers in the British navy,
there being nothing else of her class to
equal her elsewhere In the navies of
the world.
Second in the Nladivostok squadron
comes the Rossia, launched three years
earlier and within 200 tons of the same
displacement. Sire has also four eight
inch and sixteen siX-inch quick firing
guns and forty eight of lesser caliber.
She has belt of armor five to eight
inches thick, but her batteries are not
so we'll guarded as those of her bigger
sister. She can also co about twenty
knots, which would take her across
the Atlantic in about six days. This
ship has six torpedo tubes. OF less
speed is the Rurik, displacing 1900
tons, or about 1000 more than Japan's
best cruiser. She has a similar arma-
ment, though not quite so extensive,
and only four torpedo tubes.
Add the Bogatyr, built in Germany,
much lighter, but also much faster
ship, doing twenty-three knots, and
thus able to keep up with the fastest
ocean greyhound She displaces $500
| tons and has twelve six-inch quick fir
| ing guns and eighteen of less weight
This new and rapid ship will doubtless

tok squadron will be to attempt to pre-
vent Japan landing troops anywhere

Three symbols of Japan.

The three symbols Of the imperial
house of Japan are the mirror, the
crystal and the sword, and they are
carried in front of the emperor on all
state occasions, says Leslie's Weekly.
Each has it's significance Look at
the mirror and reflect thyself," or, in
other words, 'Know myself" is the
message of the mirror. BE pure and
shine" is the crystals injunction, while
the sword is reminder to "Be sharp"

While children's bathing suits may
be of less Importance than most Of
their other little frocks, still it is better
to have them made correctly rather
than incorrectly.
At many of the beaches the tiny tots
practically spend the day in their bath
ing clothes, as they are found to be ad-
mirable play dresses, and as the chill
dren seldom go in the water more than
to their knees, there is little danger of
them catching cold from wearing it for
hours at time.
Children's bathing suits should, how
ever, always be made of a woolen ma
terial; as mohair, silk and such fab
rics afford by far too little warmth for
their delicate bodies.
French flannel is the ideal material,
but any woolen material may be used.
Red, bright blue, light blue and white
all make pretty suits, and are more ap-
propriate for young children than dark
blue or black.
The suit illustrated is for little boy
of five and is made of crimson French
flannel.

Woman's Civic league in ST. PAU. ana, II
so, along what lines is it working! was
walking down Selby avenue the other day
and | noticed that below Harrington ave
nue. tall weeds line the street. Since then
/ have been more observant of the cond1-
ton of the Hill district, and l flnd that
those weeds are allowed TO grow on many
boulevards and on number OF vacant
lots. / have several friends VINO nave
suffered acutely this summer from nay
fever and a number Were compelled to
leave town. Don't you think the preva-
lence of the hay fever is due to those
weeds, and don't you think civic So
cietv ought to do something to arouse
public sentiment against them? Another
doesn't the public library allow patrons TO
select their own books? This IS permitted
in Minneapolis and Duluth. Is the ST
Paul public less responsible than the peo-
pie in either of the other two cities? Just
one more question and then l shall have
finished Is there a women,s gymnasium
in connection with the Y. M. c. A? Very
truly, Header.
The Civic league is still in existence
and doing good work, although it is
not as active during the dog days as
in the winter months. You are not the
only one who has noticed the deplor-
able condition of vacant lots on the hill
and I feel sure that if the Civic league
could see it's way clear to take UP the
matter that much could be done The
city is doing it's best to clean the lots.
You may remember that it was the sgi-
tation of this organization which re-
suited in the doing away with ex-
pectorating on sidewalks and in pub
lie buildings and if you recall the con-
dition of the streets before this matter
was called to the attention of the au
thorities and how impossible it was
for a woman to allow her skirts to
touch the walks you will see what can
be done by determined body of wom-
en-. I think in regard to hay fever that

Would Hear. Parker

ESOPUS, N. Y, Aug. 1S.-Nearly
every delegation arriving at Rosemount
from the West urges Judge Parker to
go on a stumping tour during the cam
paign- and visit all doubtful states.
This was the object of the visit today
from G. " Menzies, of Mount Vernon,
Ind, and John Spencer, of Evansville,
Ind So much encouragement was re-
ceived that they remained over night
at Judge Parker's home to discuss a
Western trip. Judge Parker deter
mined, soon after his nomination, that
he would conduct his personal cam
paign from Rosemount, but since the
notification ceremonies, so much pres
sure has. been brought to bear upon
him that he has promised to give the
invitations serious consideration.
The suggestion has been made that
Judge Parker extend his trip to the ST.
Louis exposition to take in cities in
Indiana and other states that are re-
garded as doubtful by the Democratic
campaign managers.
Edward M. Shepard, of New York,
mentioned as a possible candidate for
the governorship of New York, took
luncheon with Judge Parker today and
was another who urged the necessity
of making this a speaking campaign.
| Mr.. Shepard said this afternoon:
Il am rejoiced to find Judge Parker
greatly encouraged and full of vigor.
The Democratic party has genuine
leader in the presence of whom it is
impossible to have doubt or distrust,
who understands and sympathizes
with the feelings and ideals of the av-
erage good citizen and who has a clear
perception of the difficulties, but the
practical sagacity and wisdom with
which to overcome them

bring on this most disagreeable COM
plant. am glad to say, however, that
since letter which appeared in one
of the papers drawing attention to
them that several of the vacant lots
on the hill have been cleared away and
made to look better It would hardly
be safe to say that the prevalence of
hay fever is entirely due to these
weeds, because lido not believe that it
has been scientifically ascertained just
exactly what causes it.
In regard to the public library there
are now several open shelves from
which patrons can select what they
wish, although this system has not
been in vogue here long, nor is it used
as much as in other libraries. There
is no doubt whatever that the open
shelves where one can, actually handle
and see books before choosing is much
better liked by readers than the old
system. The people of ST Paul are
much more responsible than either
those of Minneapolis or Duluth, would
like you to know.
There is course in gymnasium work
for women at the Y. M. G. A. which
usually begins in October and meets
every Tuesday and Thursday mornings
until May. The price is not high for
the course. the teacher is the same pro-
fessor who trains the boys and it is
an excellent opportunity for woman
to exercise her muscles and to put on
flesh or take it off, as the case may be.
Nearly all women need more exercise
than they have, and especially those
who lead d sedentary life indoors or in
Offices. The woman who will walk per-
severingly can attain about the same
object, but cars are a great tempta-
ton and few women exercise in this
way unless they have an incentive.
