lions; but so far as the knowledge of this scribe extends we find the Meth odist church south is in the lead as to church snlafpeises. sI We find certain class of people in this country who call themselves Socialists. think 'tis along the line of Socialism-that. Is. no individuality but everything In common. But this scribe not being posted as to to their belief will hold his own council.
 Who are optomistsp They believe in doctrine that everything in nature is ordered for the best. To illustrate: fla man is born blind. or with no hands or feet, Gust such man once saw 'tis all for the best, and if a woman Is born with red, harsh hair. crossed eyes and freckled face, tis all for the best. Just as nature found you, anyway or any how. 'tis ali for the best, and is sacrilgious to heat the hair with hot rods of iron b cause i it to curl. of to paint the cheeks to give them pink color or ts add any thing to change the personal appear ance of the human body; for just the way that nature found you 'tis all far the best. Bill Fix and Lycurgus. what do you think of these pointsP It takes all kinds and sorts of people to fill up this old world. and cut in this western country find all kinds and sorts.
 It is believed by some of the south< ern Democrat Leaders, and so ex- pressed as their opinion, that MT. Bryan's endorsement of the theory of Government ownership of railroads will damage his prospects of nomina ton. They declare that should the Government purchase the. railroads. the law providing seperate cars for white and colored passengers will be virtually abrogatcd. the idea being that the government will not permit such a distinction to be made among the passengers. But do not believe that the U. s. Government wants such 3 thing.
 The Industrial Department for girls, connected with Cuichita College is a wise and beneficient move on the part of the friends of the institution. There are so many of our girls who, though ambitious to learn. have not the means to pay the expenses of a college course. Often too, there are so many of this class of our people who are of the best blood" but brought up to young womanhood un- der conditions which leave them. in 3 large measure. incapacItated for the domestic resp0ke Utilities which they
 must soon assume as dhousskeepers, that there is a two-fold reascls 1or the

 the less able financially. but for al
 young women. If you have made nc inquiry concerning the knowledge oi college graduates in the matter of simple chemistry-kitchen chemistry, if you will you would be greatly sur prised at the prevailing ignorance ycu would find on such investigation. If industrial schools are necessary to train mechanics. farmers. etc. for their expected business in life. are they not equally necessary for the
 training of housekeepers. The man
 must know how to build the house and
 the woman must know how to keep if.
 Chemistry. sanitation and political I economy should be part of the cu--
 recula of all our colleges where cur girls are educated. Many of our girls
 seem to think the first thing in life is 4 for them to marry; and some of them marry very young. when they know
 but little of what it takes to constitute
 a wife, mother. or housekeeper; anc
 It is a sort of miracle if they don't ge
 to the grave heart broken woman whose life has been failure. My ad tyice to girls is for you to look well te those things that qualify ycu for the
 many duties of this life and that yo. try to live a life of moral influence anc usefulness.
