Russian Reverse

Last week Kuropatkin made a
desperate effort to break through
the Japanese lines. He hurled a
strong force against Oyama's left in
an effort to inaugurate a turning
movement.
The laps proved to be ready and
met the attack from behind breast
works. The results were the Rus
slams were forced to retreat with a
loss of four or five thousand men
in killed and wounded. The Japs
probably lost half as many.
The battle was fought in bind
ing snow storm with the thermom-
cter below zero. The sufferings OF
the unprotected Russian soldiers
must have been intense. The Kus'
slams lay their defeat 70 the sudden
change in the weather. Can it be
possible that providence is on the
side of the Japs to such marked
degree?

Nature wills that age shall ado

On The human face it is particul
arly trne that years embellish the
good and damage the bad. Fol
proof, study the face of Gladstone
at various ages. All of the news
papers have shown him at twenty
at thirty, and so on up to the time
of his death. Can you not see how
with each decade his face improved!
Time added wrinkles and whitnes:
Of hair. But the wrinkles gave
strength and character, the white
hair venerable dignity, and with the
years as they passed came constant

The mouth grew hrmer, the deep.

And do you know why?
Because in that head there dwell
brain devoted to study, to intellect

Ambition dwelt there, and someth

But the controlling force was a de.
sire to be of use to mankind. The
one interest was interest in the natl

Mistakes of Women

One of the mistakes of women
is not knowing how to eat. II a
man is not to be fed when she is,
she thinks a cup of tea or anything
mandy is good enough. If she needs
to save money, she does it at the
butchers cost. If she is busy, she
will not waste time in eating. If
she is unhappy, she goes without
food. A man eats if the sheriff is
at the door, If his work drives, If
the undertaken interrupts; and he is
right. A woman will choose ice
cream instead of beefsteak, and a
man will not.
Another of her mistakes is In not
knowing when 10 rest, If she is
tired, she may sit down, but she
will darn stockings, crochet shawls,
embroidery or doilies. Does she not
know that hard work tires? If she
is exhausted, she will write letters
or figure her accounts. She will
laugh at you if you limited that
reading or writing could fail to rest
her. All over the country women's
hospitals flourish because women do
not know how to rest.
Another mistake on the list is
their constant worrying. Worry
and hurry are their enemies, and
yet they hug them to their bosoms'
Women cross bridges before they
come to them, and even build
bridges to cross. They imagine mis-
fortune and run out to meet it.
Women are not jolly enough. They
make too serious business of life,
and laugh at is little humors too
seldom. Men can stop in the mids
of perplexities and have a hearty
laugh, and it keeps them young
Women can not, and that is on
reason why they fade SO early
there are other reasons, but we vii
pass them now. Worry not onll
wrinkles the face, but 1t wrinkle
and withers the mind. Have
hearty laugh once in while; it is
good antiseptic, and will purify TIL
mental atmosphere. drive away evi

The best disinfectant of all is sunlight.
II DESTROYS by its very brightness all sorts
of germs and at the same time helps the
growth of plants and animal life. Doubt
less all have noticed that mould grows
during the night and in dark, damp cellars.
Bright sunlight quickly destroys germs,
mould or other organisms. That is why 1t
is best to let the sunlight into your houses
for its purifying influence.

Allen was willing to take the place
because he thought he could control

him ia his efforts and the council

did not do 1t. He trsed till he was
satisfied he could not and quit In dis

We are sorry 30 see these public
controversies arise among the element
or Chanute that is in favor OF the
enforcement of the prohibitory law.
1t seems the law can only be enforced
ia communities where publ, senti
mate is strongly in favor of 1t, OF
where there are men who are willing
to play detective and work up cases,
We believe the law could be ell
forced right here IL few determine d
men should undertake IL in zeal dead

through thick and thin, but 1T seems
no one is particularly looking for that
klnd Of job.
Every body wants the other fellow
to do the work and let him stay 10 the

the same way in that line. We are
always willing to let some one else
have the disagreeable jobs.
