amount for women's meals than Tor
those Of men, on the theory that wom-

physically with so much stress and
strain as men do. and, therefore, the
feminine appetite is smaller than the
masculine.

"How's your mother, Carrier" asked
friend of 12-year-old city girl whose
mother was well-known worker In
various organizations for social better
ment.
IL haven't seen mother for ten
days." replied Carrie ''She isn't up
when / go to school, and she doesn't
come home till after I'm in bed at
night; but guess she's all right"
Evidently there is something wrong
In that household. Miss McCracken, in
her recent article on THE Woman on
the Farm" puts her finger on the evil.
She points out an important advantage
which the country child has over the
city child. Schools may not be so long
or 30 good In the country. and oppor-
tunities for books and music and pic
lures may be few and far between. But
mothers In the country are mothers
indeed.
you see," says the little girl from
the farm, 1--WE seen my mother almost
the whole time ever since was born.
I almost always could do everything
that she did and go everywhere she
went It was SO unusual when I
couldn't that always heard afterward
every word about what happened. Now
my cousin-who lives in the city
doesn't do that way with her mother.
They couldn't! Her mother goes to
too many places and does too many
things that-she says-aren't for chill
dren, and it takes her so much time
DO do them that she wouldn't have time
to tell about them, even If her daugh-
ter wanted to hear, which she doesn't
much"
There Is the problem sharply stated.
Its solution is not so easy; but it is
certain that there is no public service
which a woman can render so vitality
important to the future Of the race as
Just this very "mothering" Only In
the sort of love which penetrates the
whole life Of the family. and makes
1t sweet and sound and loyal, can be
found the remedy for the social and
domestic unrest which is more danger

or political dissensions.-Youth's Com

Girls That .sre In Demand.

Girls That ave In Demand.
The girls that are wanted are good
girls
Good from the heart to the lips;
Pure as TIE lily is white and pure,
From it's heart to its sweet leaf tips.
The girls that are wanted are home
Girls that are mothers right hand,
That fathers and brothers can trust to,
And the little ones understand.
Girls that are fair on the hearthstone,
And pleasant when nobody sees,
Kind and sweet to their own folks,
Ready and anxious to please.
The girls that are wanted are wise girls,
That know what to do and to say;
That drive with smile and a soft word
The wrath of the household away.
The girls that are wanted are girls Of
sense,
Whom fashion can never deceive;
Who can follow whatever is pretty,
And dare what is silly to leave.
The girls that are wanted are careful
girls.
Who count what a thing will cost.
Who use with prudent, generous hand.
But see that nothing is lost.
The girls that are wanted are girls with
hearts;
They are wanted for mothers and
wives,
Wanted to cradle in loving arms
The strongest and frailest lives.
The clever. the witty, the brilliant girl,
There are few who can understand:
But oh! for the wise, loving home girls

4 y ATCHiSoN, KAN. woman. Mrs.
4 William X. Benner, has obtained
a verdict for $1,000 against brewery.
Some time ago the woman's husband.
IN q drunken Quarrel. shot and killed
two men lie is now serving a life
sentence in prison. The brewery sold
Renner and his, COMPANIONS q keg Of
beer. The quarrel. it was alleged,
would never have been engaged in il
the men had not become Intoxicated
by drinking the beer. Mrs. Renner
therefore sued the brewery for dam
ages. with the result as stated.
This rs not the first case of the kind
on record. but the number of such
cases is so small that this one is worth
on. If railway employe
can be sent to prison for manslaughter
because his carelessness makes a
wreck and loss of life possible. it sure
~ seems reasonable to hold the seller
of intoxicants responsible for any
damage resulting from his sale. The
man who sells intoxicants should be
even more responsible.
No railroad man deliberately causes
n wreck. The whisky seller deliberate
" sells his whisky. He does not do so,
true enough, knowing that the man
who drinks it is going to kill somebody
or be killed himself But he does know
that it is impossible for anybody to
drink more than a reasonable amount
of whisky without becoming intoxicat-
ed. And he knows that a drunken man
is almost wholly irresponsible, though
the law does not recognize such ire
sponsibility. Drunkenness is not reg
ognized i'm law as an excuse for crime,
though juries- often consider it a. paTT1-
alton. G
And it seems TO US that the financial
responsibility should not rest entirely
on the shoulders of the saIoonkeeper
1t should be possible to go from him
to the wholesaler and from the whole
saler to the distiller or the brewer. If
intoXicants were not manufactured
the saloon man could not buy them,
and If he could not buy them he mani
testify could not sell them and so bring
distress and often damnation upon his
customers.
However, progress is made when the
seller of intoXicants in small quaint
ties is compelled to pay for the dam
age he causes. A number of 1udg-
ments such as the one reported from
Kansas would soon make him extreme
ly careful about his sales.

TWO COLLEGE STORIES.


TWO INTERESTING > college stories
4 were found in yesterdays ex-
changes. One Of them told how young
men students Of the University Of Ne
braska had measurably solved the
servant girl problem by taking domes-
tic positions in Lincoln homes. These
young men, who are working their
way through the university, are doing
cooking and scrubbing and ironing and
bedmaking and sweeping and other
work that must be done in the average
household.
Why not? There is no more reason
why men who have no other way by
which to earn money should not do
Homework than why women should
not take positions that are usually
filled by men. Any youth of ordinary
intelligence can cook as we'll and do
other things in the homework line as
well as the average hired girl. Ger
1ainly a youth with energy enough to
earn his own way through college
should do very much better than the
average hired girl.
The art of cooking has been looked
upon in other days as a natural gift.
1t really is nothing Of the sort. Any
body who will follow directions faith
fully can learn to cook, at least passa-
bly,. And anybody who is willing to
learn can do any kind of homework.
If more than ordinary intelligence
were required for this sort of occupa-
ton we are quite sure housekeepers
would have a great deal more trouble
than they have now. The average of
intelligence at present among the hired
girls is not abnormaIIy high. We are
rather proud OF those Nebraska young
men. They are a spunky lot.
The other college story has to do
with the election of W. II. Keeling of
Iowa as president of the sophomore
class at Harvard. All the traditions of
Harvard were shattered by the cleo
ton of Keeling. He is working his
way through college by waiting on the
table at Randall hall, where a great
many or the students eat There is a
general impression, and precedents
would seem TO justify it, that for a stu
dent To attain prominence at Harvard
he must have either wealth or pedigree,
both if possible.
Keeling has disproved this. He has
showed that Harvard is, after all,
more democratic than has beer sup
posed. Brains and ability count for
something with the sludent body.
More power TO the young man from
Iowa.

CHILDREN AND LYING.

IN A BOOK on Education on Reli-
L gion aPd Morals Professor George
a. Coe of the Northwestern university
says: The lies of the child reveal no
vital inbred evil, for evil, like good to
be vital must be of long residence in
the soul. A babe has not a character;
he is merely candidate for a char
acter."
This doctrine should comfort anx-
ious young mothers who have discov-
cred that their children are, to put it
mildly. exhibiting strain of exagger-
alton. Lying comes as naturally to
children as eating. We are told that
George Washington never told a lie,
but somehow, great as is our admira-
tion for the Father of his Country, we
never did believe the yarn. And un-
feeling historians take no stock in it.
They say the cherry tree incident never
happened at all.
Honestly. we wouldn't give much for
a little boy or a little girl who didn't
do some lying. An absence of this
trait denotes an absence of that imag-
ination which all healthy children
should possess. Why, the very games
that children play at, the great make
believe games. are, if you want to put
it brutality, lies But for that matter
grownups play the game of make be-
lieve and play it very seriously, too
Why should the children be denied the
pleasure. if pleasure to them it is.
We know "a mighty sweet small boy
who gained considerable hero worship
+ i'm his neighborhood because of a great.
big, black bear that chased him white
he was visiting at his grandmama's in
the summer time. The black bear never
existed, of course, except in the child
lively imagination. There wasn't a
bear within 200 miles of him at any
time. But his description of the excit-
ing episode of the pursuit and his mar
row escape were Iurid, and we couldn't
blame the neighborhood children for
making a hero out of him. And no
body can make us believe there is a
single vicious trait in that small boy S
character.
Don't understand that we approve of
the mean lying. We don't. A child
should be taught to tell the truth as
to its daily doings, but you needn't
think the child is lost beyond hope of
redemption if it says fatty that it did
not do something you know to a moral
certainty that it did do.

4 BILL is being prepared for intro
~ duction i'm the recently elected
legislature of Wisconsin which win,
if passed. make Usury a crime. The
legal rate of interest in Wisconsin is 6
per cent. but by special contract it is
possible to charge the debtor 10 per
cent Under the present law if usur-
.ious interest is charged the man who
pays it may recover by suit not only
the excess interest. but all the interest
he has paid. This law has been found
to be inadequate.
IL has been discovered that a great
many debtors will not bring suit for
'their interest in cases OF usury. They
hold themselves bound by an absurd
motion OF honor to pay the rate they
agreed to pay. regardless of the law.
only in unusual instances have they
filed actions at law, though in every
case such suits have resulted success
fully for the plaintiffs. Il is thought
that if usury can be made a crime,
punishable by imprisonment in a pen
itentiary. the evil will be abated al
most Immediately.
Utah has no law on the subject Of
usury. 1t is one of the ten states Of
the Union so Situated. The law has
been left off the statute book here, as
in other western states, under the mis-
taken idea that il is easier to get out
side capital into a state that allows
the usurer fun swing TIE only result
has been to bring into the state very
undesirable class of money lenders.
men who are not nearly as good citi-
zens as the average pawnbrokef.
An outside capitalist with money to
lend is perfectly satisfied with a fair
return. All ne wants is a safe loan.
II he can net or Z per cent from it he
feels that he has made good invest
n,ent. But. say the usurers. the moral
hazard must be taken into considera-
tioa. The man who charges and )
and 10 per cent a month on small loans
sometimes makes a loan on which he
gets neither interest nor principal We
are told that only those driven by dire
necessity apply to the loan sharks-an
entirely unnecessary statement-and
that they frequently try TO defraud
them.
Nevertheless. a uelry law is badly
needed IN Utah. We hope one win be
introduced at the next session of the
legislature and that IT will be passed
by a large majority.
