The Choice of a Wife,

A German professor selects wa
man who can merely stew prunes-
not because stewing prunes and read.
Ing Proclus make delightful har.
mony, but because he wants his
prunes stewed for him and chooses to
read Proelus by himself. A fulness Of
sympathy, sharing of life one with
another, is scarcely ever looked for
except in a narrow, conventional
sense. Men like to come home and
find blazing fire and smiling face
and an hour Of relaxation. Their
serious thoughts and earnest aims in
life they keep on one side. And this
is the carrying out of love and mar.
riage almost everywhere in the world
and this the degrading of women by
both.-From One of Mrs. 'Browning's
Letters, 1846.

The Critics.


Once a painter wove web;
Wove a web Of glowing glory
In and out OF the colors flashed;
Flamed and flicker'd; rose and fell,
Like wond'rous spirit robe
In an Eastern fairy story,
And the public looked and spoke,
With a wealth of solemn structure.
He must mean tt for a joke,
For it can not be picture"
Once poet flung a glow
From his pen upon his paper.
Sweet scents sprang from open buds;
Sounds rose high then dropp'd and died;
Flames writhed red, like shreds of light
On wind blown altar taper.
And the people saw, and said,
Ere they'd half perused the proem
"He must have been off his head
When he called that thing poem.s =
Once master wrote score
Great and grand and full Of wonder.
In 1t was the joy Of life;
In 1t was the grief Of death;
Laughter and the wall of tears;
Lightning CLEAN and crash Of thunder.
And the many headed heard,
With a frown of depreciation.
AS they murmured, ION my word.
What mad conglomeration."

CAN'T KEEP AWAY

A North Dakota exchange tells
of a man who died. The very
first day in heaven, as he wanted
to go sightseeing, an angel guide
was given him. Before long he
noticed a number of persons
each dragging a ball and chain,
"How is this?" he asked. isn't
this heaven?" The angle smiled
and replied: "Why, these are not
bad men, but they came from
North Dakota and we have to
chain them or they would try to
go back"

SEES PERFECTLY
X AT 81 YEARS,
Aged Lady Saved From Comparative
Blindness by Glasses Prescribed
by Dr.. Lew Arntz.

Mrs Altoona Troub. German lady, 81
years old. living at Winterset. is thank
full TO DR.. Arntz for the perfect cor
rec;ton of poor eyesfght. Mrs Troub
has had much experience with spectacles
and for a number of years thought h:r
eyesisht was failing her so completely
that she would never again see clearly.
She was finally induced to come to DR..
ArntZ. who about two years ago, fitted
her with glasses specially ground to cor
stored perfect vision so that she now
sees clearly and reads fine print With
ease. 80 /
Many people pass through their de-
clining years without being able to en-
joy the pleasure of reading and seeing
failing them completely. In most Of these
cases it is probable that the eye AMI
optic nerve are intact and that the ply
steal change of the entire system brings
shape Of the eyeball. which makes it i'm
possible for the rays of light to be
focused upon the retna without the aid
of glasses. In all such cases 1t is wise
to consult DR.. Arntz. He has restore
Vision to ana
doomed to blindness. The doctor makes
no charge for examination and will
frankly tell whether or not he can rem
der assistance. In most cases people 50
could at 40. if the rays of light are pop
