Honor and Utility.

We shall have to look to the inscrip-
ton on the proposed statue in India
to Give. Horrible things happen when
the wording is left to native hands.
We are not perfect even in this prac-
teal western land, and we never were.
We got the date of the jubilee wrong
on the steps before St. PauTs, and
there was a blunder the other day on
the Duke of Cambridge's statue. Of
another type of blunder was that
which a worthy citizen of Glasgow
was ready to perpetrate upon the sec
ond city's statue to Nelson. What
should be the inscription? They want
ed nothing ford, but something whose
merit should consist in its breyity
and SINCERITY, which he who runs
might read. Glasgow to Nelson was
the advice given by a distinguished
visitor when appealed to by the local
fathers. Aye, and a very guild sug-
gestion, tae,'' said one of the latter.
And as the toon o. Nelson's close at
hand, MIGHT we no just say, Glasgow

Hints for Girl Workers.

Her business hours are not the only
time for which the workingwoman
must provide clothing. If she be wise
she will ind it an economy TO have two
or three cheap but pretty lawns and
dimitics made to slip into after she gets
home 1T night. 1t saves her office
cloths to change into something else,
and lie refreshing powers Of warm
bath and another frock upon rushing
home are so great that the woman who
wishes to preserve her health and vi
tally does not eglect the opportunity
offered.
With her business suit discarded she
should forget business cares for few
hours, and remember that there are
other interests at home with which she
should divert herself. No one is i'm
proved by becoming a machine, and
business should be confined to working
hours.
If women would learn this lesson
and also that n sensible lunch relieves
a tired brain they would make use of a
mans principal rules for carrying on
satisfactory work.

The Penalty.

occasionally a good man grows dis
satisfied with Kansas. He parts with
his farm and his live stock and moves
10 Oklahoma. Then he takes his good
Kansas money and buys farm which
today is and tomorrow is not. be-
cause the wind has blown it away.
Or he tries Colorado, and slushes
around in the mud irrigating strip
Of bottom so narrow that COW can't
jump into the field because she jumps
over it. Then he hears Of Texas, and
goes down to hunt the bag Of gold at
the end Of the rainbow. In the day
time he scratches sanders out Of his
flesh and at night centipedes crawl
over his face When his money is all
gone he begins to feel like he did
the first night he ever stayed away
from home. He yearns for good old
Kansas and the yearn sticks in his
throat and chokes him until tears
come into his eyes He would give a
months work to see the cows stand
ing at the bars on his old Kansas
farm and hear the horn for supper

The Fashion in Hosiery.

Hosiery is inconspicuous as compared
with that worn last year. Stockings
should be the same color as the gown,
but they need not necessarily match,
for lighter or darker shade is consid-
cred smart If it harmonizes Embroi-
derry is done In the same shade as the
hose, and the new eyelet work is in
high favor. Clocks are popular and
attractive, for the open work used in
many of them gives the foot and ankle
a slender appearance. One design has
a plain front. with an openwork clock
embroidered in light blue, violet, cream
and black. Silk hose with Isle feet are
shown in brown, gray, black and white
Brown is on the wane, and gunmetal
a peculiar shade of dark gray, is taking
its place.

A boy came down the quiet street
under the carefully-adjusted canopy.
As he turned the corner he saw another
boy half a block away, and he gave a
shrill whoop.
Where are you goingT called the
boy with the baby carriage.
Nowhere" was the prompt and loud
reply.
"Wait for me-" and the boy started
on a run, humping the perambulator
over the curbstones and rolling it along
streets and sidewalks regardless of the
small citizen of the world in charge Of
his big brother.
The comrades disappeared down the
vista of the tree-lined avenue, and the
last seen of them the baby carriage was
right side up.
Within a half hour along came lit
tie girl, and she, too, had ia her care a
baby carriage. AS she stepped along
street hailed her, and she answered
softly, with finger on lip:
Hush, the baby is asleep"
But she waited in the shade of q
tree, and the two little girls tiptoed
across the street and came whispering
and smiling over to her. She very care
fully lifted the covers and gave each Of
the children peep at the baby. Then
all three walked slowly and quietly
along. whispering their chatter as they
went noiselessly on their way, wheeling
the baby carriage as if it contained all
their hopes for happiness-the little
motherly things.

Our Common Red Glover.

There Is no forage plant in all re-
spects so useful to the American farm
er as red clover, and when it is in full
bloom it will carry more swine to the
acre than any other tame grass except
alfalfa. After it has been grazed to
the earth a few days will cause it to
grow up again and furnish succulent
feed for the hogs.
Rcd clover has two growing seasons :;
it makes its most vigorous and rapid
growth from the middle of April to the
middle Of June, and after this If not
pastured close or cut for hay it begins
to dry up and the leaves, stems and
heads fall, forming a thick mat.
1t is best to pasture close up to about
the first week in July, and then change
the hogs to some other pasture for
few weeks and then it may be pas
tured again from the second week ia
August until frost comes in the fall.
Clover is the greatest of all fertiliz-
ing plants. Many call it trap for nj
trogen, which catches and preserves it
for the crops that are to succeed the
clover. "Kedzie" says clover hay or
sod contains enough phosphoric acid for
more than double an average crop,
enough nitrogen for more than four av-
erage crops, and enough potash for
more than six average crops of wheat
a good stand of clover is the best
possible preparation Of land for a sue
ceeding crop of grain, and as forage
crop for swine it stands next to the
great alfalfa. When cut ard cured for
hay it is very nearly the equal of al
falfa, and when run through cutting
box and fed with cornmeal and mill
feed to hogs it gives good results.

The Plain Woman.

She need not appear plain.
She has at least one good point.
She may assume a number of others.
She should experiment with her hair.
She must study her coiffure from all
points.
Badly arranged hair may greatly
exaggerate a defect.
Well-arranged hair may balance and
annul a defect.
The choice of a hat has the same
good or bad effect.
A woman should beware of choosing
a too pretty chapeau.
1t is the same with a dress or any
thing else.
Rose pink or dead white, for instance,
will emphasize sallow complexion.
On the other hand, a cranberry or a
flame red, or a sunset shade, may make
sallow sister radiant.
Colors which bring out her own color
are the things to choose when possible,
rather than those which kill it.
A trim figure goes a long way. and
a good carriage, a good corset and we'll
fitting clothes do the rest.

Women as Employers.

A business woman of many years
experience was asked by reporter
whether she would rather work for a
man or woman.
"A man, by ali means" she replied,
II have worked for both, and l know.
The trouble with women is that they
get too familiar with you. What
mean is that assuming you are any
thing like your employers social and
mental equal she is likely to and gen
orally does mix business with friend
ship. She takes you into her conf
dences as to all her personal affairs,
and. sooner or later, that proves fatal.
NO two women friends can be with
each other day after day without some
kind Of a little tiff eventually occur
ing, and when you clash as regards
your personal relations, that means the
overthrow of your business relations.
mo, indeed! Business and friC Id
ship don't mix, and the only way to
make sure Of keeping them strictly sep
arated is to work for a man.
Let scandalmongers gossip as they
please, the cold, hard fact remains
that the average business man employs
a woman solely for the sake Of the
money she can help him make, and he
is shrewd enough to realize that her
usefulness to him can be maintained
only by his keeping a proper distance.
"He may be kindly and considerable
and his manner habitually may be
characterized by the utmost cOrdiality,
but there is a line beyond which he
never steps even if outside of his of
fee he is constituencies rake.
and so when she works for a man
a woman seldom is worried by embar-
RAISING condolences or compelled to be
continually on her guard against I'M
welcome familiarity. That is the re-
verse of what most people would think,
isn't it? But it's the truth.
Another reason why it's preferable
TO work for man is that men are not
so petty as women. I'm sorry to say
this, but candor compels the admission
A man looks to you to produce results,
But with women-Lord bless us! Most
women employers seem to think that
because they dole out a little money
to you at the end of every week they
have got a mortgage on your soul.
Their pettiness is manifested in
other ways, too. Once when l worked
for a woman I felt guilty every time
I called up personal acquaintance on
the telephone, although l knew it
wasn't costing my employer penny
for the call And the only person who
wanted to dock me for legal holidays
was q woman.
My sex has its peculiar virtues, but
it's plain to me that they don't shine
in the business world. Chicago Jour

Points AbOut Feeding.

There is an indescribable feeling
when you touch a high class feeding
steer that once recognized is never for
gotten.
It's the young steer that puts on
more flesh at a better profit than the
old one.
Alfalfa meal, even at SIS and 500
per ton, is regarded as economical by
many frst-class feeders.
ration Of three-fourths corn and
one-fourth alfalfa will produce great
er gains than when one-half alfalfa
is fed.
Commercial feeds when honestly
made and compounded by experts are
often the best investments that feeders
can make.
animals to stand STILL for one single
day, makes a mistake. They should
make progress all the time, from start
to finish. in order to produce the great
est profit.
The man who feeds by guess may
secure results that to him seem all
that could be desired, but the man who
feeds by rule and according to science
will beat him every time.
A reasonable amount of headwork
and the applications of suggestions OBJ
tanned in the best farm papers will
often save feed and labor.
Potbellied calves are nearly always
the result of irregular and senselesS
feeding.

Saving in the Kitchen.

1t has often been remarked that what
is thrown into the garbage can in our
rich country would feed all the poor,
says Harper's Bazaar. l have seen
this proved many time, and it is not
the well-to-do, but those who ought to
economize, who either know not how to
utilize instead of throwing away things
or are too lazy to do so.
There are half leaves of white bread
what number of good dishes could
be made from them if people knew how
good this bread is when dipped in water
and put back into the oven for little
while; and why do we have anything
like cracker dust when we can have
fine, grated bread?

Londis Kills Furniture Trust.

On the same day that Judge Lands
fined the Standard Oil Company he issued
a perpetual injunction restraining the
American Seating Company from operat-
ing as a trust. The concerns operating
under this name had been found guilty Of
violating the antitrust law by combin-
ing to monopoIize the school furniture
business through agreements with school
boards throughout the country. The or
der was not fought by counsel for the
trust as it was contended that the prac-
tees complained of had been stopped.

A New foundation NPfhnd.

The Literary Digest quotes from for
eign' engineering paper the description Of
a new method of making foundations now
used in all sorts of conditions. 1t is
known as the compressed system. 1t con-
sists in making holes through the soft
soil down to the hardpan by means of a
tapering arm, which is forced down like
a pile driver, and then filling these holes
with stones and rubble in successive lay
ers, each of which is firmly rammed
down. The result is to produce mono
lithic block of great strength. No ground
is removed in the boring of the shaft, the
sides of which acquire great compact
ness.
