VINO WAS she,
An Old Lady Coming to Laclede Had Novel
Experience at St. Joseph Wednesday.

From St. Joe Star.
II want to go to Laclede," said ar
old woman to W. G. Mayse of the
Brown Transfer company at the Un'
ion station this morning.
"Do you want a cab?" was asked.
"No, I can walk, the woman re,
piled.
She was told that it is seventeen or
eighteen blocks from the Union sta
tion to the Laclede hotel and that she
could not walk it easily, SO she took a
cab, saying that she had to go.
When the driver opened the door
at the hotel he found her leaning back
on the cushions contentedly smoking
a clay pipe. In answer to his remark
that she was at the hotel she replied:
"Oh, 1 want to go to Laclede, Mis-
souri,"
There was nothing for the cabby to
do but to return to the station where
the woman was put aboard the train.
She was charged nothing for her ride
and was in quite a pleasant frame of
mind when the men left her at the
train,

Missouri Republicans Warned.

The course of political events in
this state admonishes republicans that
they will have big fight on their
hands this year, with all the old for
ces of crookedness arrayed against
them, to which will be added some
fresh forms of deception and preten-
sion. 1t is true that the republicans
carried the state in 1904 with the ex-
ception of governor, that exception
being due to the action of some men,
bers of the party. What have they
to show for it? A governor who ap-
points strictly partisan and personal
boards, and goes to other states to
make speeches against what his news
paper organs call the "robber tariff"
Missouri republicans last election
carried the state on president by 25,-
1877, and on state officers generally
and congressman by about 10000.
Enough republicans turned against
their candidate for governor to elect
Folk by 30,100. Folk received to-
tai of 1885, ,652 votes to Parker's 1885,
312.. The figures on all candidates
show that 10000 republicans scratch
ed their ticket on governor, and that
three-fourths of the scratchers substi-
tuted the name of Folk for that of
their own nominee.
This detection in the party was en-
ceuraged in the name of reform, but
the results are simply practical con-
tinuation of former democratic condi-
tions. The state boards are still par
tisan. The governors appointees are
put where they can best help his par
ty and its campaign funds. Home
rule was a campaign cry that Folk, as
a candidate, echoed. As governor, he
vetoed it. He defeated Hawes for
nomination by denouncing his politi-
cal practices, especially outrages on
the ballot box, and then chose Hawes
for his campaign manager in St. Lou
is. The crop of Dead sea fruit since
Folk became governor is now ripen-
ing in its abundance, and the partisan |
harvest will go on. Republicans now
know, and will have ample cause to
feel, what they have to expect from
that reform, as blatant as the winds,
and just as substantial. The republi-
cans of Missouri will have no walk
over next fall, nor an adversary a
whit more scrupulous than before.
Let them work vigorously to hold the
round that is rightfully theirs, and
or which they fought SO long aud in
mitably.-Globe-D Democrat.

Some Evening Reveries.

L
Question why she allowed her children
and husband to litter up every room
in the house, and the sentiment will
find lodgment in the heart Of every
home loving person in the land; "The
mark of the little muddy feet upon
the floor can be easier removed than
the stain when those little feet 90
down into the highways of evil. The
prints of the little fingers on the win
dow pane cannot shut out the sunshine
half so much as the shadow that dark
ems the mothers heart over the one
who is but name through the coming
years. And if my John finds his home
a refuge from care and trouble, and
his greatest happiness within its four
walls, he can put his boots in the rock
ing chair, and hang his coat up on the
floor every day in the week. And
if l can stand it aud he enjoys, I can
not see that it is anybody else's busi-
ness"
X
Many time cheerful home and
happy face does more to make good
men and women than all the learning
and eloquence that can be used. 1t
has been said that the sweetest words
in our language are Mother, Home
and Heaven" and one might almost
say the word home includes them all,
for who can think of home without re-
membering the gentle mother who
sanctifed it by her presence? And is
not home the dearest name in heaven?
We think of the better land as a home
where brightness will never end in
night. Oh, then, may our homes on
earth be the centers of all our Joys;
may they be as green spots in the des-
ert to which we can retire when weary
Of the cares and perplexities of life
and drink the clear waters of love
which we know to be sincere and al
ways unfalling.
***
Let love at home always stand with
aer arms over us to help lift the bur-
lens that otherwise would weigh us
Down. Love lights lamp that glows
on when all might be shrouded in
gloom. Love, sweet angel, strength
,ns the weary and steadies the hand
hat carries cordials to the sufferers I
ips.
"Time will softly, sweetly glide, 1
When there's love at home"
Admit and keep love as member
# your household. Never for one
think that your doing is un-
even if much of the wife
md mothers time is passed in the
,itchen. The noblest and wisest live ,
~ eating, non-poetic and common as :;
may seem. Thlnk, tired housewife,
lot of piano trained fingers as becom- r
ng stiff and awkward and flushed
rom moulding the "staff of life,' but
onsides what the members of your !,
ome are accomplishing. Your son
J taking high rank in college and =
our daughter is to go as missionary, !,
nd they derive strength of mind,
-ame and muscle from mothers ia
le." Are you not doing something
Indispensable? Your kitchen efforts
clip to run all the machinery of life. .
What would become OF home if in
encouragement the mother and home F
iris cease their doing? Out of the a
ell-kept homes come the noblest of e
le land. s.
