WOMAN'S OPPORTUNITY.

When Adam ate the apple he laid
the blame Of it on Eve. She tempted
him and he Iell-that'S the way the
story goes. Possibly its true, 1t may
be false, But whether man fell
through woman'S wilcs, there Is no
doubt in the writer's mind that man
may be lifted from his fallen state by
woman. She isn't particularly obi
gated TO do this lifting, Of course, but
it lies within her power to change con-
ditions very materially she can rev.
olutionize them.
The difficulty with the moral side OF
this life is. that there are different
standards for men and women. The
women themselves are responsible for
this and just so long as they recog-
niZe one standard OF morals for them
selves and another standard Of morals
for the men Just SO long will the two
standards exist. Just as long as VIC
men welcome TO their homes the men
whose lives are not clean and treat as
outcasts their partners In shame just
so long will there be little uplifting OF
the standard of civilization.
When women give their acquain.
lance and friendship only to those
men whose moral standards are above
reproach, whose lives are as pure as
their own, whose minds are idealistic,
lofty, sweet and wholesome, then, and
not till then, will man begin to think
seriously Of the moral obligation he
owes himself and society.
When women cease To accept the
friendship of men blindly, when she

she so sharpens her perceptions and

A TRUE STORY.

He was in Logan two years ago, a
travelling salesman for an eastern soap
house. Young, well built, a fair
presence, mind at least up TO
the average, he should have been
starting on successful career with
hope and courage. Instead, ne was
Eighty, grouchv, tippler, and all
things were dark to him. Within a
short time after leaving Logan he fell
heir to at least s25, 900 cash, some say
$50, 900 He quit the road and engaged
in business First IL was drug store,
then a saloon at Provo. Genial, free
hearted, his money was cveryone's,
and he was his own best customer at
the bar His chance was one that
many young men might have made
much Of, but this young mans habits
OF earlier years had the best OF him.
Possibly he occasionally noted that his
money was going rapidly; he may have
had regret, many OF them perchance,
and he may have resolved frequently
to make a change. Nevertheless, he
was in Logan last week travelling for
another eastern house He appears
little the worse for wear, but his
money is gone, he still drinks, talks
like fool, and is now in that shape
where he can not really make living
at anything 1t Is best to form good
habits

A natural feeling among lumbermen
toward the forest work of the Govern
ment is that the Government is not in
the lumber business and cannot, there
fore, take the lumberman's business
point of view. Yet greater misconcep.
ton could scarcely exist. AS dealer
in stumpage the Government is the
largest lumber dealer in the country.
Further. it applies to its sales the prac-
tice of scientific forestry, requiring the
removal of the timber under the same
sort of instructions which it advises for
private operators. Thus the Forest Serv-
ice, in its reserve work, is giving an OBJ
ject lesson on huge scale to enforce its
teachings that conservative manage
ment and profit may go hand in hand.

TRANSFERRED TO BRANDON,
p. &. Whalon, Station Agent At
New Haven, Gets Appointment
to Take effect Today

P. E. Whalon, who has been station
agent at New Haven for the last nine
years, has been appointed station agent
at Brandon, and will begin his duties to-
day. Mr.. Whalon began railroading 10
years ago, his first position being that of
baggagemaster at Vergennes, where he
learned telegraphy. He was clerk and
operator for one year at Middlebury and
later was assistant for two years at New
Haven under G. E. Palmer, station
agent there for 80 years.
When the Bristol railroad was built he
was appointed the first station agent at
Bristol by P. w. Clement, and later was
promoted to general superintendent Of
of the road.
For three years he was in the coal
business at Brisol, selling out to Mr.
Clement, and was then appointed station
agent at New Haven. He is very popu
lar with the travelling public and has
fairly earned his promotion.

OBITUARY..

The Gazette of Hudson, Mich, under
date of Wednesday, May l6, says:
The funeral Of Rodney Witherel was held
at the family residence on High street Sunday
afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. Franklin A.
Stiles officiating.
Rodney II. Witherell was born in Shore
ham, VT, March ~, 1890, and died very sud-
denly at the home of his daughter Wednesday,
May 9, 1906, at the age of 70 years, month
and II days. He was one of family of ten
children Of whom only one brother and two
sisters survive him and who we're unable to be
present to pay the last respect to their brother
on account of distance and the inhrmities of
age.
Mr. Witherell was raised in Middlebury,
VT, where he learned the wagon makers trade,
staying there until he was ~ years Of age and
then came to Michigan. He was married to
Miss Sarah l. Comstock of this city Sept. II,
1884 To them were born two children, one
dying in infancy and daughter, Mrs. Flora
Elliott.
He had been a citizen of Hudson for So
years and was known among his fellowmen
as an honorable and upright citizen. For
awhile after coming here he worked at his
trade, bue most of his life he was engaged in
the hotel business, and although this work
brought him in touch with all classes Of men,
his relationship with them was always peaceful
and harmonious. He was lover of peace
and his attitude toward his fellowmen was
that of kindness and good will His friends
speak of him as a good man, kind and
obliging friend and highly respected citizen,
who thought of others as well as himself. "To
live in hearts we leave behind is not to de-"
About three years ago Mr.. Witherell had a
stroke of paralysis This was followed by a
second stroke last April and from this time he
had been feeble and his strong, active frame
yielded to the ravages of disease. On May q
he and his wife went to their daughters to
celebrate her birthday with her, but the next
day he suffered another stroke, and although
all was done for him that love and devotion
could do, his spirit took its fight from the
body worn and weakened by age and disease.
Mr. Witherell knew that his time was short
and made his own arrangements for his funeral.
These were carried out according to his wishes
as the last offering of love and devotion.
He leaves his companion, who has travelled
with him 81 years along the Journey of life
sharing each others joys and sorrows and
bearing one another's burdens. He leaves
one daughter and an adopted son, and many
friends to mourn the departure OF kind and
considerable husband, devoted father and
worthy citizen who will cherish his memory
for what he has done.
Not every flower can be queenly rose;
Not all of us can mighty deeds achieve;
But not in vain shall we have lived if we
Have proved heartsease to the hearts that
grieve.
The subject of the above sketch was
the son of Hiram and Nancy Witherell
and was once well known in this town,
learning his trade of wheelwright and
carriage builder under Deacon Allen.
The deceased is survived by brother,
Darwin T. Witherell, and two sisters,
Mrs. VIM. Kingsley and Mrs. Mariette
Brown, all of this town.
