Republican Claims Out West.

In the West, at least, the drift is all
in the Republican direction. Parker
has no personal following outside of a
few Eastern States, and the chances
are that he will carry none of those.
He lacks the vigor and the personal
popularity of Roosevelt. Even though
Parkers friends pretended that his
nomination would insure a big cam
paign fund to the Democrats, there is
no good reason to suppose that the
solid business interests of New York
will 60 to him. He may or may not
be better than his party, but it is GER
tain that his triumph would put his
party in power, and that circumstance
is calculated to keep him from carry.

of Democratic newspapers in the west
over to the Republican side is an evi.
dence that the Mississippi valley and
the Pacific slope are going to roll
record-breaking majorities for the
Republicans in l904,-St. Louis Globe

in the charming comedy drama
"Uncle Josh Spruceby" which comes
to Bells Opera House Monday Sept.
18th. The plot of the play is taken
from scenes of everyday life. A
country maiden who has a boarding
school education meets the tempter
in the guise of a polished city chap
who turns out later to be a confidence
man and who persuades the girl that
the comfortable, if homely, Vermont
home is too dull for her. She is in
duced to elope to the city. Uncle
Josh" goes to the city to search for
his lost Nancy" and meets many ad-
ventures there. The comedy is fur
nished by Hans Won Lottleneyer the
'just over Dutchman" and "Sally
Spruceby" who have no use for city
folks. The play is we'll staged and
acted by company of capable people.

Even Tempered Women.

There is charm about the woman OF
even temper which we especially ap-
preciate, says the Chicago Journal. In
fact, we are disposed to assert that no
more charming woman than tie even
tempered one can be found at any time
Of the year.
How depressing, in contradistinction,
is the society Of that other woman who
is in high spirits one day and has the
blues the next. 1t is usual for such an
individual to plead the weather as an
excuse. And that reminds us:
There was once little girl. who, on
certain day, when suffering from
what polite people term mental MAS
mus, but what in reality is peevish-
ness. said with emphasis:
Rainy days are just hateful. l al
ways feel gloomy when the sky is so
dark. and the rain just keeps pouring.
l hate bad weather.
1t was her father, sensible man, who
made answer quietly:
If you give way to that sort OF
thing you will make yourself and other
people very unhappy, and you will have
very few friends"
He said it in the decisive way Ill
which some individuals know how to
saw things, and it made an impression.
How much discomfort was saved the
friends and relatives Of that little girl,
not to speak Of her future husband, Dy
that short speech, it would be impos-
sible to estimate.
How foolish it is, when one comes
to think Of it, this fretting because the
weather isn't all We would like 1t to
be. AS if there were any possibility OF
controlling it. or as If any good purpose
were served by making ourselves
disagreeable.
The ever-tempered woman seldom
notices the weather, unless it be to de-
eide whether to take along an umbrel-
la. She is unaffected by variations OF
temperature. Her society is rest ana
relief.
We think this weather test Is the
very best that young men could apply
to the young women they think OF as
future wives. Many a Wan has found
to his cost that the girl wooed and won
on q fair summer day seemed other
than she turned out to be on succeed
ing days Of November fog and seoFe'
airy sleet.

wisdom's whispers.

It Is not well to take chances when
S.oman's force Of character comes in.
Tell a man he is looking bad and he
a. once imagines he is i'll.
A woman's nerve stands by her when
ste is giving the social bluff to an
other woman.
When a man is IN love he wants to
make the fact known, but is afraid OF
appearing foolish.
The girl who is in love likes her girl
friends to be made aware Of the fact.
Some men go on the principle that
whatever they do is sure to be right.
Women often are deceived by ths

Men are inclined to look upon life

of compensation.

A Feminine Peculiarly.

A Feminine Peculiarly.
Woman's ineXplicable aversion to be-
ginning on the first page of sheet OF
letter Aaper and following the pages
in th&r natural order is we'll known,
says In exchange. Men find it dis
tracing, and even women correspond
ents confess that-in others-it is an &C.
centric practice not calculated to medf'
t:tion ard prayer. Beyond this no one
dreamed of going until this feminine
regularity served actually to invalid
ate woman's will. The late Isabella
Andrews, of Brooklyn, n. Y, 1t seems,
was one of the women who delight to
treat the thtrd 3age Of sheet of writ
ing paper as if it were the second. the
fourth as if it were the third. and the
second as if it were the fourth. She
made her will that way, too. Starting
on the first page, she jumped the pro-
visions of the will over to the third
page, which she marked two, and
wound up by subscribing and attesting
the document on the second page,
which she marked three. She used
printed formula, which was intended to
be attested on the reverse side of the
first page-what in ordinary corre-
spondence paper one would call the
fourth page. The will was rejected.
and the Supreme Court, to which re-
course was had. upheld the rejection.
on the ground that will to be legal
must be signed at the end. not in the
middle, as the Andrews will was.

What Better?

1t is not, of course, the highest argument
for Christianity, but it is always, well to
ask one wno is refusing Christ what sub
stitute he has for Him. Upon what is ne
relyinc to escape from his sins! What
sure comfort has he for his SORROWS! What
evidence has he OF immortality; whence
has he gained certainty as to the charac-
fer fer Of God? What upholds him in his
work in the world? Where eoes he find
power to conquer temptation? Often, II
man can be made to see his poverty, he
will seek the true riches.
