him to task for his absolute helpless

ONE WoMAN's ACCOMPLISHMENT.

Ida Tarbe is indicated
The government has finally attacked the very citadel
of the Standard Oil company.
The attorney general by his suit instituted IN the
federal at ST. Louis charges the rebate fostering
competition crushing outlaw with conspiracy in restraint
of trade.
Every essential charge made by Miss Tarbel in her
expose is repeated and put into the form OF legal allie
cation.
Miss Tarbel told of the illegal crushing and unfair
manipulation Of the price of oils
She told of the organization of bogus independent
companies made in order to drive out the real indie
pendent companies.
She told of the division of the country into DISTRICTS
each division carrying out the general trade plot.
She told of the secret arrangement with the railroads
by which the Standard product carried at from one
half to one-sixh the rate paid by competitors
She told how the pipe lines, chartered common car
piers, monopolized by the Standard
She told how the railroad companies controlled
and dominated by the purchase of stock and the election
of Standard directors.
All these things carefully deduced from the rec
ords by Miss Tarbel and made common knowledge.
But that the government should actually in a
determined effort to kill this gigantic trust scarcely
beevabe.

A PUZZLE.

John Strange fairly beamed as
he let himself into his cosy home.
He conjured visions as he opened
the door. He could see the pretty
room, the roaring fire, the easy
chair, his wife kissing him, and he
could even hear the delightful
crow of the baby as she grasped
the little toy he was bringing her.
An this is the way it really hap
pened.
He kissed the wife and kissed
the baby and produced the toy.
The baby fairly gurgled her de-
light, and Strange was just con-
graduating himself on the joys of
home when a stifled sob broke
upon him. 1t was his wife.

FOR FARMERS AND srooKMEN

Fort Collins, Jan. 4.-The Agri-
cultural college has completed ar
rangements for the second annual
short course for the stockmen and
farmers in Colorado. The course
opens January > and continues until
the 27th. The great interest mani
tested and the large attendance of
this course last year was a surprise
to all parties concerned, and the out
look is particularly bright for an even
larger attendance this year. Some of
the brightest men in the live stock
business in the United States have
been engaged for lectures and dem
onstrations during the course. and
every minute of the time spent at the
Fort Collins short course these two
weeks will be interesting and instruc-
tive.

FRooK FOR A THREE-yEAR-oLD.

The wash frock does service now
adays the year around where there is
money in the plenty for the laund-
ress; and it is usually the most serv-
iceable and dainty of costumes where
the amount of the laundry bill needs
not be considered Little half skirt
forms are most liked in these wash
frocks, and have the advantage of
laundering easily. The one illus
trated has round yoke, with extend
ing tabs on either side back and front
the whole edged with rulle of eyelet
embroidery. The blouse portion has
a double box pleat back and front,
the deep flounce is tucked, and the
belt of the cloth attached to conceal
the joining of skirt and body portion.
The sleeves are plain bishops, with a
ruiiie of embroidery in the narrow
cuff band. Some mothers affect socks
or half-stockings for the little ones
indoor wear even in midwinter but
this is doubtful wisdom save with
the hardest of children.
