THE CRANKY VISITOR.

Wuei Aunt Brown Comes to visit us
My GOODNESS gracious me!
The dog hides underneath the barn
Old Tom climbs up tree.
The hired girl says, Sure, III quit
1t she's to be the boss"
And everyone is nervous-lik
And even ma is cross.
When we're alone we're comfor bile,
Jes' me and ma and dad,
And Mary-she's the hired girl
Except when she gets mad.
We don't 60 in for style and things,
But. bet you, we have fun.
Aunt Brown, you know, is city folks,
And keeps us on the run.
She says to ma, 30, vi at shame
You're buried in this place.
The manners of that boy Of yours
A really q disgrace!
How sad your husband don't succeed,
You're growing thin, my dear;
And, mercy! get another hat.
That makes you look so queer"
She hates to walk, she hates to drive,
She hates our neighbors. too.
She only likes to rock and t, II
My mother what she'd do
With stupid folks like me and dad.
NV ma just smiles. But, say!
You ought to see us shaking hands
When Aunt Brown goes away.

Tell a woman that she's spelling

Woman's advice is not always lucid

strikes the nail on the bead.
Standing over the steaming vegeta-

few women try these days.
Most every person has one thing
that nobody else wants, and that's a
temper. If you have one, keep it.
A woman is like some preachers in
that she has to say more than she
means in order to command hear
ing.
It's natural for the girl who knows
how to make an angel cake to believe
that she'll make good wife.
The woman who has absolutely no
sense of humor is oftentime the most
amusing one.
The average wife knows that to be
perfectly happy she. must be blind to
many of hubby's faults.
The modern man who wants to sue

solely upon fattery.
The woman who continually wears
an accordion-plaited face is the one
who is continually borrowing trou-

Biblical history doesn't say that
Eve was beautiful but Adam admitted
it when he blamed her for all his trou-

First loves are declared by many to
be the best, but they don't often last
long enough to be given thorough

The ''frst kiss of love" ought to be
copyrighted, because there are so

Some women's appreciation of tLeir

the salaries they have to pay their
hired girls.
A woman often makes fool of her.

man does the same thing because he
can't help himself.
Every woman has a secret sorrow
of which the world is unaware, and
oftentimes her sadness is mistaken for
coldness.
Man seeks consolation in the fow-
ing bowl and woman in the flowing
tears, and oftentimes the latter is the
result of the former.
Woman doesn't worry half as much
about wings to wear in the next world
as she does about feathers to wear in
this one.
The numerous daughters of the Czar
can't see why such fuss is being made
over one little boy. Neither can the
average mortal.
That women are not good financiers
is evidenced by the bad bargains many
of them make in the purchase of for.

Andrew Carnegie prefers a coach

how scarce good coauhmcn are.
The modern wife doesn't waste much

Tie Upper Hudson Valley.
BY L. X BECKER.

If the roaming instinct of the natul-
al man clamors for qualification in al
almost boundless playground it may
be realized by trip through the up
per Hudson Valley from Albany to
the foot hills of the Adirondacks.
Below albany history runs riot,
above it early struggles with native
and foreign foes rival the stories OF
the Revolution and even dip into that
period, demanding credit for most i'm
por ant service therein.
The upper valley of the Hudson has
storied past and its inhabitants are
proud of its history and its relics, es
peciaIly of the campaign of l777 In
northern New York, including the in
ner campaign of Saratoga, which re-
suited in victory to our cause and de
feat TO the British
This valley was part of the high
way from Canada to Fort Orange
along which Indian, French and Eng
lish armies marched in all the poml'
and circumstances of war: and fol
more than a century was the battle
ground for possession by powerful
claimants But today the entire Hud-
son Valley is as full of peace and plen.
ty as once it was of strife and hate;
and rxcrpt for the fiat Of manufacture
which has changed its aspect at GER
ain points. it is as picturesque as when
The food from the north first found q
channel through it and mirrowed its
banks.
From Albany to Troy, along the
west shore of the river, the traveller
turns his glance to the panorama o
the hills and the opposite shore
Twelve miles above Albany, near the
junction of the Mowhak with the Hud
son, is the village of Waterford. Ira
dltion says that the prov of the
"Half.moon" was here turned down
stream by her commander. In mem
ory OF this visit the loyal colonistt
named their town Half moon, but some
years later the name was changed tc
Waterford from its Importance as tht
only fording place along the river fol
many miles.
From Waterford to Glens Falls
some fifty miles away, is as charming
i country for rural journey as ont
can desire. Although an agriculture
region, it is alive with industli s tha
draw their power from the flowing riv
er.
The Kings Highway, once the mil
itary road, is now the common road
which, nevertheless, keeps the tradi
tions of illustrious travellers who have
have passed over it, there are tales
that reach the traveller of snowy pag
eants that gave interest to the locality
quite unknown at present.
In the bosom of these hills near Me
chanicsville, where his beloved river
his unendng requiem, sleeps Colone
Ellsworth. an early and perhaps tht
most picturesque martyr of our Civi
War. Here the electric energy requi

from the river, beautiful as a dream

Soft shell crabs. the Chesapeake bay deli
cacy that Is in demand In all the big cities
on the Atlantic coast. are now coming to
market here in small quantities from the

ployed there were sent back to this city

The cost to the members of the Interna-
tioral Typographical Union to maintain the
contest for an eight-hour day In the print
ing industry. according to Luke Grant. fur
nishes an interesting study for those who
watch Industria problems. The reduction
of the hours OF labor one hour a day seems
rather trtfiing to the average observer.
Daily come reports of some labor union
having secured q reduction In hours, but
the enormous cost that such reduction
entails seldom enters into the pubIics cal
cuiations.
In the MAY number of the International
Typographical Journal is detailed state
ment OF what the strike has cost the print
