Smiles Keep Affection.

No matter what the novelists say
against her, the smiling wife is an i'm
provement on her stern-browed sister,
and the smiling mother is the one
who gathers her babies most tenderly
in her arms Children read more i'll
looks than in speech
'She talked kind, but she had a
cross forehead" said little boy Of a
new teacher, as a reason for his re
fusal to go to school. And big people
are affected much more than they
realize by the expressions of the faces
that they meet in the street. "She
was so pleasant" is the inscription
on a moss-mottled stone in a country
churchyard. 'She was so pleasant"
is not bad epitaph for anyone when
the book Of life is finished.
The smile is as much the sign of
good humor as an open fire is sign
of warmth and cheer.

Women's Service.

It is gross injustice that women's
service, though it wears away her life,
robs her of the ability to do that
which is for her children's hihgest
good and chills her love of the refined
and beautiful, has no promise of a.
compensation equivalent to the life
long sacrifice it demands. A man of
family expects to pay the men or
women who assist in doing their work
in case such assistance is required.
Why should they expect the woman,
whom of all the world they have pro-
fessed to love best, to do their mental
work for nothing? "Oh," one is ready
to answer, "We are working on the
mutual plan What is for one is for
BOTH" Well, let us see how that is.
She has washed to save washerwo
mans bill, cooked and cleaned to save
a servants hire, taken care Of the.
children to save the nurse hire, made
clothes to save the expense of seam
stress, besides doing many other
things equally as hard; while he has
none OF these unremunerat1ve tasks
nor the expenses of them to bear. He
is not willing that she should share in
his half earnings. Quite the contrary,
when little money is asked for, not
for himself, but for any necessities for
the house or children, it is often very
grudgingly given if at all. We have
known cases where poor, overworked
women are obliged, besides doing all
the work for their families, to earn as
best they could whatever little money
they required for their personal ex-
penses.
A mothers health, both of body and
mind, is worth more than additional
acres Of land and fine live stock. The
heart should not be allowed to grow
old. Life should not have lost its
charm, the heart its spirit, and the
body it's elasticity at forty years. And
yet how many women are faded and
wan and shattered in mind and health
long before they are forty. All the
joy of life is not in its morning, if
tyrannical or thoughtless oppression
were restrained by the hand of justice.
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-05-29
Clean Out the Rubbish.

In house cleaning time there is al
ways brought to light more or less
miscellaneous assortment Of old
clothes and other "truck" that has out
lived it's usefulness in the home in all
probability, but is still serviceable and
too good to be thrown away. We
have always followed the practice of
cleaning up all such odds and ends
eachyear and each spring we lind
another huge pile has gathered dur
ing the year. Much of this stuff can
be passed along to nelghbors or
friends and made to serve useful
purpose. Any mother with family
Of boys can use no end of old clothing
that is out of date or discarded for
some other reason but otherwise in
good shape. Old magazines can be
passed along to some family where
reading matter is appreciated. Toys
and clothes that the children have
outgrown will be welcomed by some
one near beyond doubt. Old traps
and stuff that is practically worthless
had better be burned and got out OF
the road The men can use some OF
the old rags and things for w1p1ng up
machinery and around the barns. The
old shoes that are too good to be
burned up may be stored in box out
in the wood shed or tool house, and
The old rubbers and overshoes had a
good deal better be burned up than
sold at a quarter cent a pound or
half cent to some junk buyer, to be
made up into cheap rubber goods and
sold back to the customer at big
the consumer. In short, get out of
the house everything that has served
it's day of usefulness Closets full of
old rags and shoes simply invite
moths, old junk Of one kind and an
other collects dust, litters up the
rooms, and makes a tremendous
amount Of unnecessary work in the
aggregate. Clean house in earnest,
and that means more than getting out
the dirt and cobwebs.

Happiness.

If you would increase your happi-
mes and prolong your life, forget your
neighbours faults. Forget the tempt
atoms. Forget the fault finding and
give little thought to the cause that
provoked it. Forget the peculiarities
of your friends; and only remember
the good points that make you fond
Of them. Forget all personal quarrels,
or histories that you may have heard
by accident, and which if repeated,
would seem thousand times worse
than they are. Blot out as far as pos
sible, all the disagreeables of life;
they will come but they will grow
larger as you remember them, and
constant thought of the acts of mean
ness, or, worse still, malice, will only
tend to make you more familiar with
them. Obliterate everything disagree
able from yesterday; start out with
a clean sheet for today, and write
upon it for sweet memory's sake only
those things that are lovely and low
able.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER II, 1907.
THE FINANCIAL SITUATION

Notwithstanding the fact that Ma
rion banks land when we say Ma
rion banks we mean every banking
institution in the city, are perfectly
solvent and really in better condi-
tion, so far as ready cash is con-
ecrned, than they have been for
months, furry was started by
small depositors, Monday evening
and IL was demonstrated that even
Marion people will sometimes lose
their heads and do rash things. The
furry last evening was participated in
rby only small depositors. The
amounts withdrawn varied from three
. to twenty-five dollars. The larger
depositors, men who had money in
any sums on deposit went quietly
\ home and lost no sleep.
There is no question but that the
banks of the city are in better con-
dition so far as ready cash is con-
-cerned than they have been for
months. More money is lying in the
vaults than Is normal The reason
for this is the inability TO invest 1t
profitably. One banker is authority
for the statement that there is more
currency in Marion today than there
has been in six months previously.
The Marion banks are about the
only ones in the central part of Ohio
which have not placed restriction
upon the amount of money any de-
positor may Withdraw in any day.
The banks OF some cities have placed
a limit of ten dollars per day, but In
Marion, no limit has been placed.
and none Will be placed unless the
people get wild eyed and make de-
mands which are unreasonable.
One feature which is extremely
gratifying when considering the Ma
rion banks is the fact that the best
Of god feeling exists between the
tbankers of Marion. Every bank
has every other bank back OF II.
The reason for this is the fact that
each banker knows that every other
bank has securities which are gilt
edged and are more than sufficient to
meet any ana all demands which can
be made upon 1t. All of the banks
OF the city stand back of the Marion
Savings bank, the one which was
singled out by the scared citizens
Monday evening The peculiar thing
In connection with last nights furry
Is the fact that the Savings Bank
had more cash in it's vaults when
1t ended than when 1t began.
Marion Banks are all as solid as
Gibraltar, they are standing together
and unless the people insist in taking
financial affairs in their own hands,
the banking business In Marion will
proceed In the same channels It
has pursued for years.
