Body and Mind Beautiful.

It is the woman who Is beautiful ex-
ternally who cares for herself intern
ally, and who while cultivating the
graces of her body does not fail to re-
member that smiles drive away wrin-
kles, happy heart makes ones life'
work easy, and a sympathetic nature
aids in making the pleasant look
come upon ones face. There have
been beautiful women who were bad
women, but their beauty faded away
more quickly than flower, for, after
all, real beauty Is combination OF
both health and goodness.-Washing'

Woman's Legal Status.

Catherine Waugh Mccullough, legal
advisor of the National Woman SUI
frage Association Dust elected JUS
tice of the Peace In Evanston, lll),
says there are eight states in which
wives either have no control or only
partial control over their own proper
ty. In 16 states they have no control
over their wages. In other states the
law of courtesy still prevails by which
the husband has the use OF the wires
real estate during life, and even al
ter her death, should she have given
birth to a living child. In these same
statistics more glaring inconsistency
is revealed in that fact that in only IL
states Is the mother co-guardian with
the father of their minor children.

BOHEMIAN CLUB DINNER
 ON CHRISTMAS DAY

One of the pleasantest affairs of the Christmas time was the entertainment of the Bohemian club Wednesday by Mrs. Laura B. Collier at her pleasant home on Maurel hill. - The dining room was very prettily decorated, as was also the table, which was loaded with repast that was most tempting and which did great credit to Mir. Welsh, who performed the important duty of caterer to the occasion. Those who par took of the dinner will remember MT. Welsh and his cooking for long time.
 During the afternoon the club was pleasantly entertained with both vocal and instrumental music Prof. Reinboth presided at the piano and rendered some very excellent music, while Miss Mac Donald sang "Annie Laurief' and oth- CT selections in manner that brought her the most generous encomiums. Mrs. Rayl also played and sang.
 Among those present were: Prof. and Mrs. Reinboth, MT. and Mrs. s. Boehm, Mir. and Mrs. Rayl, Miss Edna Mae. Donald, and Messrs. Welsh, Conley, Crawford, Campbell, O'Rourke and Master Darold Boehm, all of whom on taking their departure felt that they had been most royalty entertained.

GOOD RIDING AT
 THE BALL PARK
Many See Broncho Busting by Experts; Good Horse Races
 on Broad Street.

The program of sports planned for Christmas day proved quite an attrac- tion at the ball park, but two numbers on the program, the rifle shooting con. test and the wrestling match were not pulled of. The program at the park was preceded by an exciting horse race on South Broad street in which five horses were entered. There was nothing fakey about the race as every horse entered tried hard for the money. The first prize was taken by Craig's mare and Jack Burns sorrel horse won sec ond money.
 Several thousand watched the bron. cho busting from the grand stand and the surrounding hills at the ball park. Eight horsemen were entered and some of the riding was excellent. Melvin Burnett succeeded in capturing first money and the second went to Bert Edwards. The riding of Young, the long Texan cowboy, who formerly rode in Buffalo Bills wild west show, ex- cited considerable admiration among some of the old timers and many though he should have landed in the money.

mothers love could leave. There was plain
John Jasper White and Alice Hayden, and
two frayed and yellow letters, dating from ia

And knows that he's being slowly dissected,
All the way from his feet clear up to his

His mocking grin says, 'Tn see you at re-

To the round-headed bully's insolent leer;
