that, she is ambitious. She wants to
attain heights and see results in her
continual striving and pushing. She
wants to be somebody great and adj
nlired, and in nine cases out Of ten she
believes she could be that SON abody if
she were only free from her present
limitations.
You take woman who before mar
riage had a little voice and was having
it cultivated. After marriage she
hasn't time for anything Of the sort.
She is too busy with household cares.
Perhaps she has married a poor man
and is forced to do her own homework.
Well, after the first romance has worn
off she moves about among her pots
and pans discontented woman. And
why? Because she is contrasting her
present hard lot with what she might
have been had she remained single and
cultivated what she believes to have
been great talent. She dreams she
is an opera singer, with the plaudits
of a large audience in her ears, and the
box of stove blacking remains untouch-
ed and the brush drops from her hand
as she pauses in her labor Of shining
the homely kitchen range and dreams
of the vision that might have been.
There is many woman who doesn't
give her husband meals fit to eat be-
cause she thinks she has missed being
famous actress. There's many a
mother who lets the baby cry itself
black in the face because she is read
ing the society column and wondering
if she wouldn't have been there herself
if only she had had a chance and been
able to manage differently. There isn't
one American woman in ten,'' conclud-
ed the good man, who is content to
be just what she is, and that's what
causes most Of the troubled"

Woman and
Her Ways
Running After People.
The Wise Servant Knows
Her Easy Master.
Mothers Boy.

1t has always been a question with
me what constitutes the phrase run
ming after" people.
After a good deal of consideration
have come to the conclusion that it is
purely a relative term.
Take the case Of two women. One is
rich and desirable in every way. The
other is poor, unable to benefit any one
socially, in the way Of gifts. entertain
ments, etc. The poor woman may not
have large circle Of friends. She is
naturally anxious to get to know peo-
pie, so she is unusually nice when she
meets them and tries to do them ia
vors as much as possible. Well the
first thing you know she is accused Of
running a. ter people, and when she
gets that reputa ion among women as
rule she is cordially let alone.
The rich and desirable woman, on the
contrary, can be as gracious and as
sweet as she wants NO one will ever
accuse her Of running after" people.
Every one will only be too delighted at
being noticed. She may indulge herself
in the greatest familiarities even at
first acquaintance, and when her poor
er sister would be called rude and
pushing she will be voted $50 gracious
and simple and unaffected in her man
ner."
Moral. If you have neither much
money nor social position, you must be
twice as stately as if you had.

Mothers ard Sons.

Many mother sees her son grow up
failure and spendthrift, working in
a lazy, slipshod manner, and she won
ders why.
The trouble is that most mothers
have no idea how to bring up boy in
a practical way
It is quite as important to teach him
how to manage his pennies as it is to
teach him table manners More so.
social economists will tell you.
Women have passion for detail that
blinds them to more important things.
Now, that's question for some new
Woman's club to discuss: why are so
few mothers practical in training the
MINDS Of their boys?' Must the ma

Queerest CITY in the World.

Perhaps the queerest city In the
world is that OF Nang Harm, the home
Of the royal family OF Siam. This
city popularity lies in the fact that
1t is composed of women and children
alone. 1t is in the center OF Bangkok,
has high walls around It, and IN its
population Of 5000 there is not single
man, though the king occasionally
pays a visit. There are judges, execu-
toner, police, generals and soldiers;
all the positions, official and other
wise, being filed by women The only
man in all Siam who can enter this
city is the king.

patches Claim Beggs is Be-
hind c., K. & M. Line
WOULD PARALLEL FROST ROAD
Battle Royal is Said to Be on Between
the Chicago and Milwaukee Line
and the Roads Operated by
John /. Beggs

| kilograms sent out from both Mil
waukee and Waukegan declare that it
has been discovered that John /.
Beggs, who is practically the owner
OF the Milwaukee, Racine and Keno
sha ElectricsRailway, is backing the
Chicago, Kenosha, Milwaukee and
Lake GenevaGCo. in the efforts now
being made to get franchise through
Kenosha, and that it is the intention
Iof Beggs to build the line from Keno
sha to Waukegan, and in this way get
2 right of way into Chicago.
There is no positive evidence in Ke-
nosha to support this story, and in
fact the officials of the line now seek
ing a franchise have repeatedly de-
clared that the company has no CON
lnection with sJohn /. Beggs or with
any Of his enterprises. Beggs has
not been in Kenosha since the fran
Ichise ordinance was laid before the
council, but the people of the city
who are acquainted with the manner
Of working usually followed by Mr..
Beggs willsnot takesthis fact as proof
positive that.Beggs is not behind the
franchise ordinance. tits not thought,
however, thats the sWaukegan and
Milwaukeespeop1e have any more in
formation onathe ssubject than Keno
sha, but the sfact that the line pro-
posed through sKenosha would be a
good line for Beggs to Waukegan has
probably given rise to the story that
the two companies Rhave an under
standing.
It has been repeatedly stated by Of
fcials of the Milwaukee company
that when Mr.. .Beggs wanted right
of way through Kenosha he would
come and get lit, but there are some
people in fKenosha that doubt the
statement. S Beggs shas several times
sought concessions from Kenosha, but
his ortsShave9bee turned down SO
hard that asssssentim against him
was developed. Attorney Grover,
when in thehcity to file the application
for franchiseEfor the Chicago, Keno
sha and Milwaukee scompany, stated
positivelysthat the company was not
in any waysconnected with any other
railway company in wisconsin, and
he stated particularly that the com
pany had nothing in common with
John l. Beggs. It swas limited at the
time, however, that in the future the
company might EFarrange traffic
agreement with Beggs.
There is a.warto thesknife between
Beggs andsaFrost,ssand at the present
time it looks as if5.Frost has the de-
cided long endsof lthe string. He has
forced his entrance into Milwaukee
and there is no doubt but that the
Chicago and Milwaukee line will par
a1lel the Beggssline before the close of
another year. 0Beggs is anxious to
reta1iate, andathereSis 1ittlesdoubt but
that he would accept any possible
opening to secure "a line running be-
tween Kenoshaland Waukegan, and
from that city 1intof Chicago. This
was the original .Beggs plan, but he
failed to estimate the strength of the
Frost interests and had come to the
con c1usion sthatEthere' was no reason
for haste in securing sthe building of
the line to theasouth.
