If there is ever a time when wonl-

Mrs. Frederick Tracy believes there
is only one way for woman to man
age her home successfully. and that is
by using the same amount Of common
sense that a man does 10 his business.
Under one circumstance a woman
will admit her age, and that is where
she is a real daughter of the Revo-
luton. There are few still living
whose fathers fought in the Revolu-

Now let some anti-race suicidist

proposed by a local club woman where
by the right Of, franchise would be
bestowed on the fair sex as reward
for having large families, advises the
Detroit Free Press.
1t has been brought out through the
case of a young woman who is maxi

speak twelve languages. Think Of be-
ing "answered back" in a dozen
tongues by a saucy maid!
In the great political game which
every four years ends in the election
of President of the United States,
the President-makers give absolutely
no thought to the possible Mrs. Presi-
dent, yet it is a truism well proved
that no nation has ever risen above
the level of its women; hence the
Mrs President" is of paramount inn
portance, since, as "the first lady in
the land" her manners, habits, tastes
and personality are practically pub
lie property, and set the pace for two
thirds of the women of the country.

a REVOLUTION IN HATS.

For o wearisOme number of years
hats have remained the same shape,
little larger or smaller from season
to season, and all worn at an angle of
forty-fve degrees-about as much use
as a protection from wind or sun as
neat bit of schooner rigging, the
larger ones often suggesting the wis
dom of reefing in a storm.
This season, without word of warn
ing hats are entirely different in shape
and size, and for the first time in a
decade are worn squarely on the haed
or fitting down over the eyes. And
there is no more wholly becoming,
chic, captivating manner of displaying
pretty hat than TO let it half shad-
ow the eyes, soften the complexion
and add a pretty piquant mystery to
even the palmer girls.
The newest French hats are the plat
eau style with no crown at all, and on
very dressy occasions the Russian Of
ficer's hat, which is a crown without
any brim, and another test of youth
and beauty. The plateau hat is worn
turned up directly at the back, with a
bandeau bridge below the masses of
flowers or ribbons on the upturned
brim. If the hair is worn low, the
trimming extends from the brim, to
hair twist. The brim may be turned
up in straight line or in many curves,
and often the sides are rolled up too
and flower lined.
The more fashionable braids are on
the whole rather ganzy-silk Milan

morning glory braid in all the morn

looms that are made up on any becom-
ing frame. The forward hat" ac-
casionally has a crown, low and rather
large, and then it becomes something
Of a sailor and the back brim is worn
up or down as it is intended for after
noon or morning use.
That mischievous crown hat which
is known as the "hussar" or the
polo" is about as trying a style as
the slngle-masted effect Of last year.

"The children will be Drained or car

Charles, boy of nine, then an
nounced his intention of making a
break through the Indians and running
to Beaver, four miles away, for help,
but both parents refused TO give their
consent. Charles stood the inaction as
long as he could; then with cry that
he would not stay to die by smoke, he
made dash out of the door and was
gone. Bare-footed and half-clothed, the
boy escaped the notice Of the savages,
and ran at top speed to the town. His
feet were bruised and torn by rocks
and briers, but he never slackened his
pace until he met man ON the out
skirts of the village.

wheeling his horse round, rode back to
Beaver, repeating the boys cry. Ten
minutes later twenty men were 1ding
at top speed toward Lees ranch, where
they drove the Indians back and res
cued the inmates from whathad seemed
certain death.

EIGHT MIrH A FISH.

On the fats at Winthrop Beach,
Boston. on recent afternoon lone
man and a monster Goldfish fought and
raced and tripped and splashed for half
an hour. and 1t was the strangest duel
ever waged OH the rock-bound New
England coast
Time and time again the determined
man wrapped his muscular arms about
the fish in an endeavor to secure a
STIR gle hold, and time and time again
the cod merrily wriggled away. AT
times the fish became vicious and
lashed his tail against his human op-
ponent with amazing force. Twice the
man was knocked down by the cod
fish, but still wet and sore, he fought
until, after thirty long, wet and exclt-
ing minutes, the man was victor and
dragged the great fish ashore.
The skill of rod and reel, Of casting
and playing was missing from the
contest, II is true, but no fisherman
ever fought a better fight and no fish
was ever gamer. Thrashing about in
the shallow waters of the fats the man
and the fish lodged this way and that,
leaping and struggling together, roll
ing over and over in the water, each
determined and vigorous. and plucky
Mrs. William Duquet, of Faun Bar
street. Winthrop, saw from Great Head
hill the fish splashing in the shallow
waters on the bar. The fish had been
caught on the flats by the outgoing
tide, and was struggling to work his
way into deeper water Mrs. Duquet
called her husband and he hurried to
the beach and waded out.
He had never seen a Goldfish of such
size, He was expecting to find young
porpoise or something Of that class,
and was too surprised to do more than
stand and gaze at the struggling fish
for a while. Finally seeing endless
frys and bakes and stews and chow
ders in the fish he carelessly took hold
Of the Gods tail and started inshore
with him.
He started. but that was all. The
cod curved his 1.-THE, scintilating body,
and with one blow from his tail
knocked Duquet fiat and fioundered in
the shallow water. Again and again
the man sought to hold the fish, but
was unable, and after being Knocked
down a second time. he devoted his
energies to driving the fish ashore.
Finally. when he had the cod well in
shore, iIe ran ashore and secured a
piece of sacking. With this to pre-
vent his hands from slipping he
grasped the cod again, and they
wriggled and rolled together inshore
and upon the sands of the beach, where
the struggle was over
The cod weighed sixty-fve pounds,
being nearly twice as large as any cod
ever before caught off Winthrop. Mrs.
Elmer Chickering. wife of the Boston
photographer. was one Of the few wit
nesses of the strange fight. The cod
attracted hundreds during the re-
mainder of the day, when it was on
exhibition at the office Of the Point
Shirley Packing Company.

woMEN's HONOR.

If anything. we women are in these
days overscrupulous. principally owing
to the fact that feminine honor in
the past has frequently been the sub
ject of masculine gibes. Women were
formerly commonly supposed and
generally allowed to cheat at eroquet,
a privilege they shared with curates;
and in games where money changed
hands while the winnings were in
variably handed over to them, they
were never expected to pay when they
lost. OF course, we have changed all
that to-day.-Ladies' Field.
