What Women Want In Men.

1t is so recently that women have
been allowed to think, or expected te
think, that it is not strange that
| they have not expressed themselves
upon the question of what they want
in men. They have been brought up
on the philosophy, BE good and
you Il be married, and it has not
been question of what they like in
men, but what men like in them that
counted or was important.
There are many women, otherwise
fairly sensible, who openly say they
could not love man who did not rule
them. To say that every man, by
virtue of his sex. is meant to be the
master of some woman is utter folly.
The need for master is not ques-
ton of sex, buta question of the lack
of moral or mental stamina in the
individual.
What do women want in men?
Theresare women who prefer a man
with the ability to earn fortune
rather than one who has inherited it..
Being a good provider will sometimes
cover multitude of petty faults in
the eyes of women obliged to account
for every penny spent. Nor is gener-
osity all. Women want from men what
every normal human being Graves
commentator and approval.
Woman, normal and healthy, does
not want or need a master. Outside
of truthfulness, honor and courage in
him. what she prizes above oil things
from him are kindness. generosity
and sympathy. Belle Squire in the
May Deilneator.

while without thot or word of apollo
gy to the old lady, he looks after you.
One of these days when the novelty
is worn off, he will leave you to go a
lone as best you can, while he seeks
his enjoyment at the club.
Don t marry man who curls a
scorpful lip when religion and the
Bible are spoken of. and who has all
the mistakes Of Moses and the mis-
deeds of Solomon on his tongues end.
A copy Of Ingersol S lectures on his
parior table, instead of the family BIZ
BILE, is very poor guarantee of hap
Ply family life.
Don't marry man whose friends
smile at each other when his ma ne is
mentioned, and say, We'll, we hope
he will come out all right, but he is
sowing few wild oats now" Re
member that what is sown before
marriage is reaped after marriage. II
will be very awkward for you to be
obliged to reap that crop one of these
days; and if you marry him, you will
have the most of it to gather in.
Don t marry man whose linen is
more spotless than his character,
whose shirt collar is more infexiblt
than his integrity. and whose neck
ties are the only immaculate thing
iabout him. Collars and cuffs and neck
ties are all very well; but they do not
make up good husband, tho they
do very well on a tailor's dummy. In
tegrity of character is as much more
important than these things as a mar
is of more Importance to the worlC

Chancellor Days Vagaries.

Chancellor Day of Syracuse Univer-
sity, N. Y, can scarcely be said to
have a national reputation, but he
has certainly gained a national noto-
riety. The egotistic and supecilious
manner in which he advised the pres
ident and others to calm down" and
learn from Washington, Lincoln and
other presidents of the past but
shows how ignorant he, an educator
of youth, is of the character of the
men he so glibly cites.
If the evils now so pronounced and
which strike at the very heart of pop
ular government, had been in exis-
tence in their day, they would have
opposed them just as earnestly as
Roosevelt, Bryan and othe1%champi-
Ons, in every party, of political and
business Righteousness are now do
ing.
Mr.. Day suggests TINT people talk
about the great benefit trusts and
railroads have been to the country.
of how the Standard Oil has reduced
the price of kerosene, and how the
happiness of mankind in general and
of this nation in particular, has been
increased through the by-products
furnished by the trusts. In fact it is
clear that Chancellor Day firmly be-
lieves that trusts are composed of be-
nevolent philanthropists whose one
aim is the benefit of the public and
who lie awake at nights devising
plans to make everybody prosperous
and happy This being his view he
must consider the public as migrate
jul as we're the daughters of King Le-
ar.
1t all goes to prove how, ignorant
ly or willfully Mr.. Day misrepresents
the facts and ignores the real causes
that have led to the popular uprising
reflected in congressional and state
legislative action. If he were not so
blinded by corporation wealth he
would see that many of the trusts
whose praises he sings have brutally
md Illegally crushed competition,
rave boasted that they can buy Iegis-
atures and courts, have even attemp-
ted to ooerce the chief magistrate OF
the nation, and have displayed the
utmost Indifference to the public
veal. And it is just this and this only
that has led the people to decide to
,urb the trusts.

Clean and Cleansing Newspapers.

This piece of moralizlng coming
from newspaper which up until a
few weeks ago Haunted on its front
page four life size quart bottle pic
lures of Rye, namely the Clarkesdalt
Banner, shows how the tide is turn
ing against the banefnl whiskey ad:
No thoughtful newspaper pub
fisher who realizes the responsibility
he owes to society, can fail to be i'm
pressed with the words of Cardinal
Gibbons in sermon recently deliv-
cred at Baltimore, in which he de
nOunces salacious journals and news
papers printing Objectionable adver-
Using. Newspaper publishing is
changing. Tie great wave OF agita-
ton for betterment in business meth
eds in every department of life, is
having its effect on the business OF
newspaper publication as well
In fact, it scarcely seems consis-
tent that newspaper should profess
to preach morality and to advocate
better things in its editorial columns,
while at the same time turning over
its rews and advertising columns to
practices for the deception of the
pablic, andithe publication of matter
calculated to lower the moral tone OF
u community. Every publisher is a
Judge of what is improper and OF
what may properly go into the col
umns oEhis paper In inaugurating
q policy in accordance with his ideas,
1T is possible to make the news fea-
lures of paper conform to the idea
of what is proper more quickly than
the advertising features. The rea-
son for this is that the news is de-
velopment of each day, and the adj
vertising is matter Of business con-
tract for which the publisher is both
morally responsible.
Newspapers bear the most intimate
relationship possible to the homes
which they enter. Their columns
should be clean throughout and their
character and contents, their aims
and purposes above question. y

make future revolts impossible by re-

Few will deny that the multiplicity
of religious denominations in this
country results in a waste of men,
money and energy that far outweigh
any incidental benefit that may oc-
cur. 1t is common sight to see in a
small community four or five weak
and struggling churches with no es-
sential differences of belief or polity
trying 10 do what one strong church
could do far more effectively and with
greater economy. In view of this ev-
cry wise effort to bring a number Of
denominations together in fedora,
ton or organic union is to be com
mended. The past few years have
witnessed several successful move
ments of this character, the last be
| ing the recent action in Chicago by
representative committees OF the
Congregational, Methodist Protest
ant and United Brethren Churches
which in all probability will result ii
the three denominations becoming
one. In the religious world the TWEEN
tieth century bids fair to be the cen
fury of reunion.

her society whenever practicable, not
necessarily as a lover, but as an earn
est friend and camponion. No mat

culture and erndition. No matter if

will lose all relish for vicious pleasure

reduction would have been greater if
