SHOPPING IN SUNSHINE.

An Englishwoman says it is her law
never to shop except on sunny day.
She never, she insists, makes a mis-
take on n sunny day. She declares
there is nothing one can buy safely but
stamps when the sun is absent. There
is a good deal in her theory. Shop
ping on gloomy day is good deal
like writing letter when in fit of
the blues. The sun comes out, ones
mood changes, and one regrets what
one has said and what one has bought.
In spite of this, as everyone can see,
It just takes rain to bring women
out. When the weather is the worst
them the fair ones HE themselves to
shop, each under the impression that
all the others will stay home, and she
will have the whole store to herself.
And maybe this is why so many
things have to be 'taken back."-

WISE WORDS.

Love may be blind, but it usually
finds way.
A premature start often means TOD
previous finish.
Work is n joy when the loved ones
share the fruits.
Feet that never stumble never carry
their owners far.
A kind word now is better than
floral emblem hereafter.
1t is better to wear out than to rust
out, and unwise to do either.
Sincerity is the only foundation
upon which to build true success.
The world rarely thinks well of
man who does not think well of him

SNAKE BITES DOOMED
THE BANK.
Texas Planters Learn the Danger
Of Farmyard Hiding Places and
Deposits Are Doubled.

The farmers Of the Flatonia Texas)
section of the cotton belt for some
reason have long been shy of banks,
and have been in the habit of putting
their money in receptacles of various
kinds, such rs old shoes and cans.
A few weeks ago Charles Bosler, a
farmer living near Flatonia, went to
a corner Of his yard one day, and in a
few minutes came hurrying back,
shouting to his wife that he had been
bitten by a copperhead snake. Bosler
came near dying from the effects Of
the snakes poison, and it was not until
two days after the snake bit him that
Bosler was able to tell how 1t hap
pened. He had gone to get $50 he had
on deposit in an old shoe under
board in the corner of the yard, and as
he reached in to get the shoe the snake
struck him.
Upon hearing the story Mrs. Bosler
went out to get the money where her
husband had left it. The shoe was still
under board, and the farmers wife
reached into to get it, when she caught
a glimpse of copperhead snake lying
there. She was not quick enough to
jerk her hand back before the snake
struck her. 1t sank its fangs in her
thumb so deep that she dragged the
copperhead along from under the board
when she pulled her hand out. She
shook it loose and ran screaming to the
house.
AS soon as he had attended to his
wife's snake bite, Farmer Bosler got
his gun, went out to the place where
the snake seemed to be standing guard
and lifted the board. Coiled on the
old shoe was the copperhead and it
showed fight at once. Bosler jumped
aside and shot the serpent's head off.
The $50 was all right in the shoe and
Farmer BOsler removed it to the house.
The news of the adventure of the
Bosler family with the copperhead
snake soon spread about the neighbor-
hood, and then the farmers began COM
ing into Flatonia every day to deposit
in the banks all sorts and conditions of
money. The cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank of Flatonia says that for
the week ending Saturday the deposits
in that bank We're double what they
had been in any previous week in its
history.

apron and one for the bib.
Since there are no more new orna-

is to wear those lovely necklaces of

builder of happy home is success
indeed. She knows that it takes two

filing house with bargains keep q
couple from owning the house in
which they place them. She knows
that if we thought all we said we'd be
wise, but if we said all we thought
we'd be foolisr. She knows that some
people sneer at love in cottage. but
love that could wish to live anywhere
else is not love. She knows that proud
people seldom have friends. In pros
perlty they know nobody; in adversely
nobody knows them, says Woman's s
Life. She knows that to make long
lived friendships one must be slow in
making them. She knows that the
woman who gains trifle meanly is
meaner than the tri6e. She knows
that sit is less pain to learn in youth
than to be ignorant in old age" She
knows that II she cannot throw
brightness over her home it is best
not to throw wet blanket over it.
She knows that the wife WHO thinks
she is perfect is generally the most
imperfect. The unwise wife may
profit by studying what the wise
woman knows.

changing her attitude at each stroke,
alert and watchful, throwing up tho

moment more and more excited, till
finally a fat grub was seized a4

several days I saw her mine for grubs
in this way and drag them forth.

GLADSTONE AND THE LOVERS.

GLADSTONE AND THE LOVERS.
About twenty years ago shoemaker
came to London and established a
small workshop, but in spite Of indus
try and strict attention to business he
continued so poor that he had not even
enough money to buy leather for work
which had been ordered.
One day he was in the whispering
gallery of st. Paul's Cathedral, with
his betrothed wife, to whom he con-
fided the sad condition of his affairs,
and the impossibility of their marriage.
The young girl gave him all her small
earnings, with which he went next day
to purchase the required leather, with
out, however, knowing that he was
followed>by gentleman commissioned
to make inquiries about him.
The shoemaker was not little sur
prised when the leather merchant told
him he was willing to open a small ac-
count with him. In this way did for
tune begin to smile upon him, and soon,
to his great astonishment, he received
orders from the wealthiest circle in
London society, and his business be-
came SO well established that he was
able to marry, and have n comfortable

Women Teachers.

According to an analysis of the CEN
sus statistics relating to teachers,
made by Prof. Walter Wilcox, Of Cor.
nell University, eighty per cent. Of the
teachers in large cities are women
In all countries the greater part of
the teaching is done by women, but
in the United States the excess Of
female teachers over male is greatest
Calculating the school age as from
five to twenty-four, Professor Wilcox
finds an average Of one teacher to
every seventy-one pupils, or 140 teach
ers for every 10000 pupils, and that
teachers exceed the total number Of
clergymen, lawyers and physicians.
In 1900 Nevada had the largest pro.
portional number of teachers; Yer.
mont ranked second, Maine third, and
Iowa fourth. The proportion of teach'
ers was smallest in some of the South
ern States. During the past decade
the proportion has increased in every
State and Territory, the increase reach
ing q maximum in the State of WASH
ington. The States of the North and
West showed a greater increase than
those Of the South.
The proportion of teachers in cities
having at least $4,000 inhabitants Is
greater than in smaller cities or coun-
try districts. This condition, however,
is not prevalent in all divisions Of the
United States. In the North Atlantic
and north central divisions the larger
cities are not so well supplied with
teachers as the smaller cities and coun'
try districts.-New York World.
