The Destiny of Woman.

The first requirement in the ideal of
Z woman Is that she shall be salts
hed woman, and that she does not at
al wish to be anything but woman.
The creed of pessimism and despair is,
sIt were better not to be-" yet would
give no more for, II would greatly have
preferred to be something else"
Woman should not be satisfied to
accept herself at this valuation, though
that, doubtless, Is better than to revolt
against her fate; but she should ap-
praise herself, feel the high dignity Of
her position, recognize the advantages
Of life under the special form In which
she receives 1t, and which, in nobility,
IL equal to that bestowed upon man. In
a word, woman should have the courage
and pride of her sex.
We often meet young ladies who
would like to be boys. In speaking
among themselves Of certain others of
their set they say: 'There Is girl
who ought to have been boy she Is a
boy lost" There Is no harm In this,
inasmuch rs 1t is no more than joke
and fashion of speaking. 1t amounts
to saying that certain young girls have
aptitudes which ordinarily are charac-
teristic of young boys. But these have
never prevented a woman from being
truly and gracefully womanly.
What VIC wish to indicate and stig.
Matte here is silly scorn of that which
we already possess; refusal to put 1t
into operation, to employ it. and the
dangerous illusion which lies In think
Ing that we should have done greater
work in this world If God had wished
to make us something other than that
which he has desired.-Pastor Wagner,
In Harper's Bazaar.

Cost of Making Butter.

In a recent report published by the
Iowa state dairy commissioner, the av-
erage cost Of producing one pound of
butter Is given as follows:
In the creamery that makes 10000
pounds Of butter year, 1t costs cents
to make one pound Of butter, and in a
creamery producing $4,000 pounds II
costs "a cents to make one pound
while in creameries making 10000
pounds per year it costs only 1856
cents. In some Of the very large GEN.
trail plants, that are producing over
100000 pounds Of butter per year, It
costs Ia cents per pound. These fg-
ures clearly show that the larger the
creamery the cheaper butter can be
manufactured. and they also show that
1t takes about 400 cows, tributary to
one factory, before a profitable cream
cry business can be established

Tomatoes and Nitrate.

One hundred pounds to the acre of
nitrate Of soda applied to the tomato
crop when the fruit Is beginning to set
will largely increase the yield and has.
ten the time Of ripening. Spread the
nitrate broadcast or between the rows
just before a shower, and then cultivate
1t into the soil. One quarter Of an
ounce to plant is about right in small
gardens. Experiments at the New Jer-
sey station have shown that nitrate
applied about the middle of June had
much greater effect on the crop than
the same amount applied earlier In the
season. A dressing Of 100 pounds per
acre increased the crop one-third above
that Of plot not so treated. Nitrate
of soda Is very quick working ferti-
lizer. 1t produces rank, dark green TO-
liage. which obstinately resists the at.
tacks Of insects and of mildew. We
have found nitrate excellent also to
produce early asparagus, but care must
be taken not to apply too much.

save EARLY In the Week.

Do your saving at the beginning of
the week, you who live upon allowances,
or, what is the same, SO far as this
counts, upon salary.
The extra expenses which often come
upon you Unexpectedly in the latter
part of the week may be easily met II
you've been outstanding your resources
a little, instead of spending up to the
last cent.
A good plan Is to allow yourself so
much for little expenses for a given
length Of time, and then to keep with

called upon by some little emergency,
either put it away or use 1t toward
some definite purpose, such as subscrib.
ing to good magazine, getting a good
book or seeing good play. all of which
should he considered as mental invest
ments.

STRENGTHENING tn. Back.

A good exercise to strengthen the
back and remove excessive flesh from
the hips can be taken In ones own bed
room. 1t consists simply In picking up
small stool or chair and raising it
high over the head, and then bending
over, placing it on the door. Repeat
this movement, raising the stool high
above the head, and putting 1t back on
the floor until tired. 1t Is a good idea
also to take deep breath when you
raise the arms above the head and ex-
pei when you put the stool to the floor.
This Is a vigorous exercise, and If kept
up will not only strengthen the muscles
Of the back, but drive away the super
fuous flesh from the hips.-Medical

In the fattening Of poultry for mar
ket 1t is always a good plan to confine
the birds to quite small quarters In or
der that the food given them may &C
complish the best possible result. The
fattening coop should be where 1t Is
light and dry and the birds must be
kept comfortable at all times. More
than all, the coop or coops must be kept
clean, else the fowls are likely to be-
come sick and will not In such condi-
ton take on flesh. Where there are
a number Of fowls to fatten coops are
arranged on a wide shelf which forms
the bottom, then when 1t Is to be
cleaned simply lift 1t up and set in an
other place, leaving the shelf free to
clean thoroughly, Any box Of light
material will do for the fattening coop
with wire netting to within six inches
Of the bottom. Across this space a bar
may be placed with just enough space
between 1t and the wire netting SO that
the hen can get her head out to feed.
A narrow trough should be kept in
front Of the coop and be filed with a
variety Of grain in mixture 80 that the
fowl may help itself when it desires.
These coops are very inexpensive, easy

Be orderly. A dlsorderly, careless
woman will never have a comfortable
home.
Be punctual. Some girls and some
women, too. are never at the beginning
of anything; little late at breakfast, a
little late at church, a little late every
where.
Be cheerful. A bright, smiling face
makes every one happy and a sullen,
fretful expression is just as likely to
make others cross. Even when 1t rains
out Of doors there might just as well
be sunshine within.

The value Of a COW considered as an
investment was lately figured out by H.
P. Guerler. the Illinois expert Start
Ing with a poor cow, one that produced
200 pounds Of butter year, he reckons
the food cost at $50 and the labor at
$3.50. while the butter Is worth only
$S5, or less than the market value Of
the food consumed. The fancy butter
COW produces 400 pounds Of butter per
year, and on the same basis of reck-
oning nets her owner interest on $500,
besides paying for the food and labor.
The price Of butter in both cases is
reckoned at 20 cents. The fancy COW
consumed somewhat more food than
the other. but the difference was more
than Offset by the increased amount of
skimmilk. According to Mr.. Guerier,
the fancy COW ts better worth $500 than
the ordinary cow taken as a gift.

COlOrs TO Wear.

Green sets off white and rosy skins
1t should be relieved with white, red
and rose.
Rose-color should not be against the
skin. 1t should be separated by the
hair, or white or green.
Bright blue becomes the blonde. II
should never have any relief of rose
or violet, but yellow and orange have a
rather good effect.
A brunette may wear blue, provided
1t is relieved with orange or yellow.
Dead white against the skin may be
worn by the blonde or brunette, but the
skin must be white or rosy.
Black relieved with white, red or
rose suits both blondes and brunettes,
but the latter less than the former.
Red against the skin lessons the In.
tensity of very high color.

STATUS OF COAL LANDS
Some Declare Segregated Holdings
Are Not Worth as Much as Reported

Some Declare Segregated Holdings
Are Not Worth as Much as Reported
SOUTH M'ALESTER: The Truth
About the Segregated Coal Lands"
will be the name of the booklet pre-
pared for the senatorial committee
when it begins its labors in this city
in the middle of November.
According to those who know some
thing about the segregated lands and
what they contain. there has been a
lot of foolishness printed about the
incalculable riches of these lands.
That they do not contain vast guam
titles of very fine coal there can be
no doubt, but that they are worth
billions of dollars is extremely doubt
full.
Mr.. j. G. Puterbaugh of this city,
sales agent for the McAlester Fuel
company, possibly the best informed
man in the southwest on coal condi-
tions, declares that much of the land
segregated is not worth great deal.
The fact that those who are loudest
in their denunciation Of the sale OF
the lands are the most ignorant OF
coal conditions.
still there is a difference Of opinion
in the matter. A prominent citizen Of
the city says that If the coal trust
get hold Of the lands the lands will
undoubtedly be worth millions Of dol
lars and hundreds of millions To the
coal trust. At present the rate for
hauling the coal from any of the
mines into this city is forty cents
per ton.
