He Saw the Game.

The office boy had buried countless grandmothers, brothers, sisters, aunts and cousins, but he felt an enthusiasm for the baseball game that day which would not be downed.
 Suddenly an idea struck him. Alp preaching the easy boss with an air of familiarity which had been nurtur- ed by long usage he asked:
 "AIay leave at noon today. sirF'
 "And why, my boy?'
 "There is a fancy fair at our church and mother wants me to go this after noon. She was so anxious that she bought me a ticket which cost dol lar, as she was sure you would allow me the few hours of. have to assist at the refreshment stall, and 1t seems a pity to waste"-
 But surely you are above such things as that which take you away ! from your work. Why not give the ticket to one of your sistersf"
 well, you see, sir, that wouldn't be fair. for I'm the only one of our fam fly who can be depended upon to eat a dollars worth, and i Ills supreme nerve won the day. Smiths Magazine.

nm through his troubles" and her tears flowed faster than ever.
 As the days dragged past, Mrs. Shannon could hardly think life worth living. She hated the office, with its routine work; she constantly thought of the confusion at home. and the clearinghouse she had once enjoyed filled her soul with anguish, with its gossip and nonsense. She no longer went with John to church Sundays, but devoted her time to putting the house to rights, while her husband loafed down.town. No more walks and drives and evenings together, for the dishes must be washed and break fast prepared, and the dozens of little things attended to during her spare minutes.
 Did you ever notice signs of in sanity in me, John?" inquired Mrs. Shannon one morning as they ate breakfast in the kitchen from table which boasted no cloth.
 "No, jdear," said John, with a sur prised look, though one glance at her tense face told him what was coming T believe you mentioned once that housekeepers were more apt to go crazy than"

An EnoIish Anenity.

A striking difference between our manners and those of our English cousins was shown one day at a gar den party. The hostess, an American. was speaking to one of her guests, an EnClishwoman of rank.

Her Supposition.

In the Beecher family the name of Mrs. Stowe was often quoted to the rising generation as one having au- thority. She was also quoted ad nau- seam, it would seem. from story told by the woman's Journal. On one oc- caslon a grandniece of Mrs. Stowe be- came very angry at playmate and, stamping her foot, said, "f hate you, and I don't want anything more to do with you. nor your manservant. nor your maidservant, nor your OK, nor your ass" Her mother sternly re- proved her, asking he if she knew what she was saying. Little Miss Beecher promptly replied, 'Yes: the Ten Commandments"

long as I live. I know I made your life a burden to you by always re. minding you of the money I used to earn, but surely have been punished enough"
 It was not necessary for John to try to conceal the broad smile on his face, for his penitent wife was in his arms long before her forlorn, little speech was ended, and he was kiss. ing the top of her head. After a few minutes spent in retirement, Mollie lifted her head and wiped away her tears, vehemently, as she said, in dis gust, Look at that table! Our home is ruined almost, and what is the re- suit? I've earned the magnificent sum of $50 and had endless trouble. I've missed church, Sunday school, a re- ception, two picnics and all the pleas ant times we used to enjoy, for the sake of a little money! Dear, can you ever forgive mel"
 :I'll try to-" said Jchn, with his old, gay manner, that had entirely van ished during the past few weeks. I'm glad you will never want to go away from home again. Perhaps MT. Ora mer's stenographer will soon come back"
 "I hope so," said Mollie, fervently. 'T promised to stay as long as he needs me, and I'll keep my word if it kills me-"
 While Mrs. shannon hastily cleared away a few of the breakfast things before walking downtown with her 1 husband, that crafty man had mys. terious business with a small boy al the front door, and a silver dollar changed hands. The young couple parted in better moods than they had been for many a day, and Mrs. Shan non turned on the steps leading up to 1 her employers office to wave hel handkerchief as in the old days. The salute was returned, and she actually smiled as she entered the hated room MT. Cramer crumpled up a note in hi: hand at sight of her, and said, Good morning, Mollie. You seem in a good humor this fine morning."
 "I am," said Mrs. shannon, briefly.
 "I am looking for Miss Cameron fl 6 few days to do some special worl for me, and if you would like to be re leased, can spare you," said the olt gentleman, kindly. "0f course if you't rather stay, I'll be glad to have you but"
 "I guess I'll go on home" said Mol lie. with her hat already on her head I've got a few things to attend t there"
 "All right, but whenever you wan to make a little pin-money let m, know. These independent young won en find it hard to ask their husband for every cent, and I often have extrt work on hand"
 Mrs. Shannon was halfway dow the hall before this sentence was Ar ished. and did not hear the laugh tha followed her nasty exit. Half an hou later Mir. Shannon smiled to receiv two notes at the same time. One va from Mir. Cramer. and contained onl these words, Your scheme was sut eessful." and the other was from Mo lie. 'Mr. Cramer doesn't need me an longer, SO we can begin to live ono more. Dear, I will be good forevei more. Your repentant MoIlie."

What is prosperity' ?
" NJ. NUULDINE.
Hulsey, Mo-, June 10, 1907.

''What is prosperity!" asks the
ST. Louis Globe Democrat ~ Il
recent editorial.
The ups and downs of Wall
street are not the regulator of good
or bad times,
Prosperity is not built on the
past freedom Of railroads in the
matter Of rates and rebates.
Seasons of smaller fruitfulness
must be looked for occasionally,
but it is by no means certain that
anything likely to happen to the
crops as a whole will seriously af-
feet prosperous conditions.
AS long as there is plenty OF
work at good wages for all who
are willing and able, as long as the
policies of the country are wisely
conceived and honestly and intelIi
gently executed, and as long as
the people are faithful to high
standards of action and enterprise,
the groundwork of prosperity will
not be shaken. At the highest
mark continue foreign commerce
and manufacturing development
and exports. immigration is
mounting beyond former figures.
Government revenue is far ah cad
of expenditures. 1t is said that
prices are high. In the long years
of depression that ended in 1897 il
was universally complained that
prices were two low, and vast
army of the unemployed was il
evidence. How Il change for the
better was brought about is wei
worth study and constant remem
brance. Prosperity came by thai
road, and there is the place to loot
for its controlling causes.
What then is prosperity! How
was that change from depression
over production, disaster and want
brought about in 1897!
What was thai road by which
prosperity came and what in thi
country is the ''ground work @
Iprosperity,'' which has RENAME,
mistaken, since in 1896. tina

EDITOR jutnNAL:

EDITOR JOURNAL:
Again we see it stated by
one Of your exchanges LEAD Belt
News that another shooting has
taken place in an EIvins saloon AS
the direct result Of The use Of in
toxicating drink. |, for one. am
surprised a, that statement from ii
learned newspaper man. 1t he
will look at it in the right way be
will find that the intoxicant is in
the second degree, and that the
pistol is in the first degree. And
! If the newspaper and mag gaziuc
press would USE their influence III
trying 10 put down the use Of the
pistol, we would hear less Of the
shooting and killing rs the direct
result Of intoxicants.
In the first place, what are pis-
tolls made for? If for a legitimate
purpose, why, all right Ii for an
llligitimatc purpose, why, just put
the whole business, from the mana
facturcr to the user, under license
the same as the manufacturers Of
beer and whiskey, for the makers
Of intoxicants-thc brewers and
distiIle lers-are licenced, | believe;
and then retail and wholesale
houses, ''saloons" are licenced. and
| would have all people that used
saloons for drinking places put
under a license, too.
And if the makers of pistols,
the merchants that sold them, and
the purchaser and user were under
heavy license there would soon be
less shooting and killing as the di-
rect result of intoXicants. The
Lead Belt News has got the cart
before the horse, like some others,
that is all. You and your brother
editors have great, good work
here before you.

Hens Right to Cross the Road.

careless way, have never realized
that the domestic hen has rights,
legal rights. We have doubtless.

of the opinion that the first duty

that the hen Was within her legal
