Grace to Correct a Fault.

Be not ashamed to confess that you
have been in the wrong. 1t is but
owning what you need not be ashamed
of--that you now have more sense
than you had before, to see your error;
more humility to acknowledge it;
more grace to correct it.

We wonder how many OF
OR readers have noticed the
difference between the man
who has been married but q
short time and one who has
been married several years.
You can always tell q young
husband from an old one.
When a man hasbeen married
Il few months, you will gener-
ally see him working In the
garden or fixing up about the
the house and while he
works he whistles, or sings,
or occasionally looks up to-
wards the window to see If
anyone is watching him. A
year later he is still working
in the garden but the smile
has been exchanged for a
frown and he occasionally
looks up towards the house
wondering why in thunder
breakfast is not ready. An
other year rolls by and his
looks would sour milk, but
he is still! al work, stopping
occasionally to kick the dog
or throw a brick at the cat.
The next year we find him
sitting on the front porch,
smoking a pipe, while his
wife does the digging in the
garden. Now just watch onr
young men, as one by one,
they are caught in Cupid 3
net and see if this rule does
not work out the problem
correctly.

THE WOMEN OF OKLAHOMA.

At the ranch we were pleasantly well comed-astonishing fact, despite our in troductions, for the hostess had just dismissed the last of 30 guests who had stayed with her through the show. The house was still in confusion, for they had not expected to entertain more than half a dozen; but the six invited ones, relying upon her well-known hos pitality, had calmly multiplied them- selves by five The parlor, as we en- tered, proved to be a large, handsome room with a hardwood floor and ma ] hogany furniture. Magazines and pa- pers were scattered about, among them. on the center table, a big pistol. The daughter was introduced to us-a Vas sar graduate-and instead of talking murder and sudden death, we discussed psychology and recent fiction. Also the servant-girl question.
 They would have no women servants on the ranch. the told us. Girls were always sick when the mistress felt under the weather; they would rise to no extra occasion, such as 30 guests instead of six, but explained that they weren't hired for that. A man cook. now, did his work without fretting, and furnished as many meals as might be required. They had had Englishmen, eolored men, and now had a Chinese, and they had all proved sat is factory. The ladies tok care of the bedrooms themselves.
 We attended one woman's club meet ing. It was in Gage, in the northwest ern part of the territory, a little brand new town, bravely starting out to beautify itself by planting trees two feet high. This club has 31 married members and at present writing three single ones, but by the time this goes to press probably not one will be left unmarried. There are too many bache- lors around Gage. A weeks residence, the landlady of the hotel assured us, was enough to enable any woman to oolelct at least one offer of marriage. The clubwoman study Shakespeare, Whittier, Longfellow and other poets, and sprinkle in a very few papers on practical subjects. Perhaps this is be cause all the rest of their lives is so very practical that they want a change Allduring the meeting I attended one sweet-looking wholesome young matron nursed her sunburnt baby. I wished Grover Cleveland could see her as she sat under the one lamp.
 The husband of the president pushed his head in at the door, and her two children broke from his restraining hands and padded up to lean against her knees.
 Nov, John!" she remonstrated aloud. 1T left those babies to bed be- fore I left! What did you bring 'em oyer here for? And barefooted! and in these old clothes!"
 John smiled easily and continued to watch our proceedings.
 He's in favor of clubs" his wife went on. "So you needn't mind him. ladies. But do wish he'd take these children home and put them to bed.
 q will, pretty soon" he said

DORSCHT CHARITY CONCERT
BRISK SALE OF SEATS AT OPEN.
 ING YESTERDAY.

Leader FichtI of the Second Regiment
 Band Has Prepared Brilliant PrO-
 gram-PiccoIO Duett by Messrs. GuiI-
 ford and Hegel-Arthur Kunze, of
 New York, Horn Soloist.
 The sale of seats for the brilliant Dorscht concert by the Second Regi- ment band at the Hyperion tomorrow evening opened briskly yesterday and continues to-day and also tomorrow afternoon. Owing to the large advance demand of seats from out of town, local patrons are advised not to delay secur- ing their seats to the last moment.
 The concert will be decidedly the most enjoyable ever given by the Second Regiment band. Leader Fichtl has de- voted more time to the rehearsals than usual, owing to several new pieces that are to be played.
 The opening number is the popular ''Dorscht March No. g. by Wiegand. and this Is followed by Suppe's beauti- xul 4uG D0ouAAAd1 AoSAsbSCo' Close upon the heels of this comes the idN Whispering of the Flowers" by Blon, and the Highland patrol, "The Wee Maggregor," by Amers.
 An impressive number will be the horn solo by that noted player, Arthur Kunze, of New York The selection will be the "Recitative and Cavatine" by Donizetti, and great interest at taehes to its rendition.
 Probably the most exquisite number on the programme will be the piccolo duett by Frederick Guilford and Will liam Hegel. Only once before have these two masters of the piccolo been heard together, and at that time they took the house by storm. Tomorrow Messrs. Guilford and Hegel will play "F1irtation," new composition never before heard as a piccolo duett in this city.
 Two other interesting selections will be one from the great opera 'Fantana' and a grand fantasie on Scotch, Irish and English airs.
