More Men Than Women

After ALL there for the bachelor 1t has been
demonstrated statistical fact that there women
enough to go round.
If every bachelor wished to marry and such that
women might accept them many would still be unable to
find mates. Women, it seems and plen-
y and after all the have accepted the best there
inevitably remains surplus.
census bulletin issued recently shows that in CONT
mental United States there moles than
females or about two in each 100
Probably in the population of the world WHOLE and
certainly in that half of it which has been counted with
distinction of sex, there several millions more males
than females.
In continental United States however the relative
of males greater than the average for all countries
So the bachelor is necessary evil. He could not help
himself if he would He may coneitedly imagine that he is
single from choice but he is nothe is simply of the
left-overs.
To be sure, there old maids and widows in plenty,
but every last of these should be taken is
fair to that the particular old acheo you especial
y have in mind at this moment might still be left foron
and minated.

beauty of ministration. And had she
found too late that she had made a
mistake" in her mated choice, it
showed a cowardly soul to shift the
burden of her disappointment" upon
her husband and innocent children.
Instead, she would have striven to
lift herself and them nearer her ideal,
and conquered.
But she only sat down in a corner
of her disorderly kitchen and driveled
over what would have been bitterness
had she attained 1t, and Swallowed
the hearts of those she was dishon-
estly defraudlng of the duty she
owed them
But her husband was below her
level?"
Well, it Is just because so many
wives and mothers nowadays find
their '1evei' outside the home and
its duties that the divorce courts are
full. A womans best and highest
level is to do her duty in whatever
place her feet are set. And | find

Don't I think you had better name
the baby Maud?"
Not If you expect me to stand god
mother to 1t. That name always re-
minds me of the young woman in the
bayfield,. Not but she could have been
as much of lady there as anywhere,
or that he work was at all degrading;
but she certainly showed a lack of
womanly modesty and innate refine
ment. Any young woman who so in
stinctively lacked the sense of the
true fitness of things as to go traip-
sing around the public highways
barefoot, would probably, had the
Judge married her, have appeared at
her first judicial function in a tea
wrapper" white cotton stockings and
toe slippers.
The amount of gush that has been
wasted over her is sickening. To
my mind, she has ruined more homes,
broken more hearts, made more dis
contented wives and unhappy children
than any other dsmsel of the century.
There is no single thing about her
worthy of good woman's respect.
Whose fault was ii that after she
fixed her eyes on star" she took
up with a tallow dip?
Failing that which she desired, had
she been truly noble in spirit. she
could still have lived her lonely life"

1t is in the clod of earth that Gods
grasses grow, and the tiny objects
of His care nestle undisturbed. And
1t Is in the wayside clods that the
daisy lifts her heart Of gold to the
sun. and brings to perfect purity her
snowy crown. In every true wom-
ans hand lies the power to implant
in these lowly lives that which will
one day reach it's fullest fruition in
the heavenly gardens by still waters
of everlasting peace.
And you don't think then you will

Well. 1 should say not.

of sinus that had burrowed down
beneath the abdominal muscles. Gould
made good recovery from this and
believed himself entirely well.
Recently after his return here he
took to horseback riding and after
one of his rides discovered small
swelling on the lower part of the
sternum which the physicians told
him was the return of the old trouble.
He received temporary relief in hav-
ing it opened and insisted on continu-
ing his work, but further examine
ton disclosed the disease to be much
more extensive than external signs
indicated. 1t was found that necrosis
of the bone had set in and all of the
diseased portions were removed.

Bad Wreck on Northwestern

The through freight which should
nave reached Brookings about mid
night Friday met with an accident be-
tween Lake Benton and Verdi which
caused the wreck of two engines and
damaged several freight cars.
Trainmen said they had no little
trouble with the air brakes and to cap
the climax the train broke in two west
OF Lake Benton. Havinglost so much
time and fearing the passenger from
the west would run into them one
engine went to Verdi, accompanied by
the conductor. The other engineer
understood that he was to follow with
the train and when half way up the
grade the other engine, which was
returning to help him up the hill,
came around a curve and ran into the
engine drawing the train. Both
engines were badly telescoped and the
fireman on the rear enginewas scalded
so badly he died Monday.
The morning passenger from the
east as were the east bound regular
passenger and special atrain to Mime
apolis were delayed several hours and
all passengers, mail and baggage had
to be transferred around the wreck.
The fireman killed was a new man
from the Iowa division. The blame
for the accident seems to rest between
both engineers. The engineer who
went to Verdi exceeded his speed rule
when returning to pick up the train
and the rear engineer should have
waited at the foot Of the grade until
the return of the other engine.
