Wife should Study Her Husband.

"I wish girls could all be made to understand how important It Is for them to study their husbands, and ney- CT stop; to know how they will be re- paid If they do so, and if they try to realize that they are one, yet with two different natures, and see If they can not make the new nature part of their other.
 "Oh, how close together you can grow, and how far apart you could get If you didn't stop to think and try to understand each other. I know how much have to thank a good mother for, and see so many young married people who seem to be gradually pull ing apart without knowing the reason why.
 Never hesitate, girls. to speak frank ly, In good, friendly way, about any thing. Discuss everything you are in doubt about, and make him understand that 1t is the little things that count with women. If he forgets some of his little attentions after you are married, don't keep your grievance to yourself i; tell him of 1t and ask him to try to remember that it Is these little things that go to make up your happiness.
 Tell him in a nice way and you will find that if you are as considerate of his thoughts and feelings he will grad ually get where the little things are never forgotten, and you will find your lives growing closer all the time, and love for you greater instead of less.

Game Fowls for Ornament,

Dealers In pet stock say tha. subur- ban residents of Boston are adopting as the latest fad the raising of game chickens. The stately carriage and brilliant plumage of these belllgerent fowl make them valuable for decorative purposes on the lawn to people who would, however, never dream of putting their cumulative qualities to the test. The dealers are prophesylng that be- fore long the old-tlme fancy of keeping gamecocks chained with silver chains on the lawns of fashionable country houses will be reyived.-Boston Record

Change of Work Profitable.

A writer In a Baltimore paper tells of two school teachers who took up an abandoned farm near summer resort, raised honey and ducks and In few years saved money enough for one of them to marry and support husband. The husband had his smoking and bill Hard room so arranged that he was not annoyed by the cackling of the ducks, and the success of the venture in every respect proved that abandoned farms are much to be preferred to school teaching.

There isn't much question that most of us would get along better If little more attention were given to mastica- ton, If we ate less meat-indeed, less of everything; but there are so many other offenses against good physiology more serious In their results and all most equally prevalent that the layman may be excused for skepticlsm as to the necessity for political economists deserting their own field to push the cause of the chewers. A man who con- sistently chews each mouthful of GUS tard fory-seven times through life may have a chance of living to be 100 a fraction of a point better than the man who bolts batter cakes whole, but the latter during his shorter earthly so- journ, having his attention less closely fixed on his stomach, may actually do more good In the world than the hu- man hashing machine.

Whenever Mrs. Peck's family showed even the faintest sign of ailing, she al ways sent post haste for the family doctor who, fortunately for all concern- ed, lived within the same block that contained his most anxious patron. One night Mrs. Peck's small Judith, whose appetite was usually in excellent work ing order, refused to eat her supper. Mrs. Peck's motherly fears were in stantly aroused. There was certainly something wrong with Judith.
 The child had recently been unsuc- cessfully vaccinated and was, In con- sequence, living in hourly terror of un- dergoing q second vacclnating experl- ence, so Mrs. Peck considered 1t ex- pedient to smuggle the doctor into the house without forewarning the little girl.
 Well" said Doctor Brown, captur- Ing his small patient and seating her on his knee, "I hear you didn't eat any supper. Whats the trouble?'
 Couldn't" replied Judith.
 Why not?"
 Don't know-just couldn't
 Have you a pain anywhere? Does your head ache? Is your throat sore? No? Then let me see your tongue Hum nothing the matter with that tongue. Had anything to eat since noon?"
 Yep" said Judith, brightening at the remembrance.

 Well" admitted the patient, "I stopped at Kittie Pages after school Her mother was having a party, and Kittie and ate all the ice cream and cake there was left.
 "Then went to the church fair with Kittie, and they gave us doughnuts. After that we met Flossie Blake going with her uncle for hot chocolate, and we had that, and some nice little waf- CTS besides.
 'Then I went home with Flossie and ate five of the waffies that their cook was making for supper. guess that's all, except the banana that grandma gave ma."-Youth's Companion.

 The strength of the unions In Teuton. ic countries is disclosed consplcuously in the table and the English-speaking countries show a marked pre-emlnence in this field. Whether thls will be re- tained permanently Is open to question. Germany has doubled the number of Its unIonists in four years. Austria has had a similar experience and the unions of Italy and Hungary are the creation of the last five years. Great Britain 's the native home of trades unionis,n and there the organized working men have won their most notable political successes.-New York Sun.

In recent years, as all readers of the papers know, 1t has become too com. mon among a certain class of people to have the marriage ceremony per. formed under strange and unusual con. ditions, as on platforms at county fairs, on the top of smokestack, etc The cheap notoriety that attaches to this sort of marriage destroys the sane tity that should pertain to the cere. mony and gives the minimizing occa. sion to regard 1t as a joke rather than . serious transaction. There Is alto. gether too much trifllng with the mar. riage tie already without turning the ceremony into a monkey show.

Look After the Nails.

The ugllest nails can be improved by taking the trouble to push back the hard skin that grows at the base of the nails. This should be done after the hands have been washed In warm soap and water and are still moist.

Some aggressive country merchants advertise to have on hand all of the catalogues of the different mail order houses and offer to duplicate any price found in them and to save their GUS toners the freight charges in addition. They find this method very effective in holding their old customers and gain. ing new ones. The mall order house has come to stay, and Its business Is built up through advertising. Talking against the mall order house will not help. The country merchant must sim. ply do more and better advertising and must meet competition as he finds 1t, not as he might wish 1t were.

BEAT AGED STOREKEEPER.

Michigan City, Ind, Dec. 1S.-Two
robbers entered the store Of Frank
Gust, aged as, and crippled, Tuesday,
at the village of Brudick, and after u
brutal assault on him, took his money
and yaluables and looted his store.
One Of the robbers was captured, but
the other made a spectacular escape
from a posse of angry farmers by dash
ing away on a stolen horse. Under
cover Of darkness he rode to the city,
leaving the exhausted animal at the
outskirts Of the city.
The storekeeper was reading a news
paper when two men entered. Think
ing they were customers he looked up
and into the barrels Of two revolvers.
Covered by one robber the old man
was ordered to keep quiet while the
other went through the store. Finding
little money they became angered and
beat the old man almost into insensi-
bility, taking s25 from his pockets and
fed.

are inclined to speak of his policies
with a shake of their heads. Why:
Because they are faint hearts. Be-
cause at the start they did not forsee
that the fight on corporate dishonesty
could only be won by forcing Wall
street to the wall. Because they did
not realize that Wall street would fight
back, even to the extent of throwing
the country into a panic. hoping that
such a course would force the common
people to desert the President and raj

parties run by @.afters and for graft

The panic is here. 1t vas engineered

old standard. Inviting you to nomi-

beginning to swell out their chests and
anboaEcs that they will not pass any
Roosevelt legislation this season, by

What are we going to DO about it?
Are we going to lay down and let
Wall street walk over our bodies and
souls in a sort of triumphal entry into
its own stronghold again? The
of graft, special privileges,
juggled bank deposits. etc. Do We
want to return to those old days aud
give up all we have gained so far? Adj
NIT that Wall street had been right Ill
along and we wrong? That the bust
ness of the country can not be sue
cessfully carried on honestly? If that
is the case then there can be no reform
and instead Of looking to Washington
as the seat of our government, we will
have to look to Wall street and. in
stead of finding our government there
we will find our masters.

the only form of resentment we Will

for three years on more in turning
the light on corporate dishonesty the
