Model Husbands.

Perhaps every married woman lr
our community supposes she posses
ses a model husband. and we should
be sorry to say anything that might
be the means of dispelling the dalu-
sion. We feel sure no two women
weigh mankind in exactly the same
scales. What one woman may re-
GARD as virtues another may regard
as faults
A model husband in our opinion is
not a man who alone brings wealth
to his home; nor one who endows his
wife with a fine social position; but
the one who gives to bis wife the
best of himself; who appreciates her
virtues and pardons her faults.
A model husband may be day la
borer who returns to his home at
night with hard earned dollar
lasped in his honest hand, and adds
it to the family fund to be used 20
provide necessary comforts for he
family. He shares faithfully with
his wife whatever he may earn by
trade or profession. When business
matters perplex he does not go home
with woeful tale of his hardships
and turn the bright side of his char
acted to his associates. but he comes
in to his home with a III 7f,7' face
that inspires his wife with M cour-
age after day of perplexing duties.
which women alone have to meet,
rand in their monotony become dis
tasteful to the most patient of them.
A model husband does not hang up
his fiddle at the door, to be taken up
as he goes out to entertain outsiders,
and come into his home as devoid of
any suggestion of music as in the

Punishment.

At one time in certain peniten-

moral discipline Of the prison, and
all were compelled to attend chapel
regularly One Of the prisoners
came to the warden one day and
begged to be allowed to remain
away from the chapel exercises, as
he wanted Sundays to write letters
to his friends. The warden looked
at the beseeching convict in amaze
ment. "What," he exclaimed, cal
low you to stay away from religious
exercises all the time! No, sir.
Why, man, don't you know that's
part of the penalty? ?" And the con-
Wet continued to worship regularly,
while the warden led in prayer.

it was then pushed over the terrace.

THE PRIME MINISTER.
He Is the Real Ruler of the Great Brit.
ish Empire.

ish Empire.
The real ruler of the British en-
pire is not the titular sovereign nor
the hereditary nobility. 1t is the
leader of the political majority, who
derives his power solely from the di
rect vote of the people. The prime
minister of England is subordinate
neither to the king nor the house
of peers. Every man who shares
with him in the work of the gov
eminent is his subordinate.
Following a general election the
sovereign sends for member of the
majority party and instructs him to
form a government. This is one of
those fctions of the constitutional
authority of the sovereign to which
the English people cling as to the
heritage of tradition. The sum
mons is delivered, but it is merely
form. The party leader is such not
by the grace Of the sovereign, but
by the choice of the majority; not
by election, but because he has the
qualities of leadership.
The leader, having received the
sovereign's instructions to form
government, becomes by that man
date the autocrat of the empire.
His power is absolute. Like the
president, he may appoint whomso-
ever he pleases a member of his cab
met, but, unlike the president, he
is not Influenced by geographical
considerations, nor does he have to
submit his nominations to the SEN
ate. In both countries the mem
bers of the cabinet hold office at the
will of the appointing power, but
the tenure of Office is even more
precarious in England than it is in
the United States. Here a minister
may differ from the president ON a
matter Of policy and not feel it IN
cumbent upon him to resign. In
England there can be no differences.
Either minister agrees with his
chief or he resigns.
In England the cabinet is an ex-
ira legal creation. Nominally it is
one Of the committees of the PRIV
council, whose functions are to ad-
wise the sovereign, but this is sim
ply survival of mediaevalism. The
cabinet is under the sole control of
the premier, unhampered by royal
or other interference. But-anoth-
er surviyal-no member Of the cab
met may make public any matter
discussed By the cabinet without the
express sanction Of the sovereign,
and when the premier issues a sum
mons to . cabinet council, which
meets at irregular intervals, accord
ing to the exigency Of public bust
ness, the minister is requested to
attend a meeting of his majesty's
servants. "A. Maurice Low in Ap-
pleton's Magazine.

The Widows Deg.

A case was recently tried in JUS
tees court in which a common old
fashioned hound was the subject of
contention. This hound was alleged
to be the best dog after coons in the
neighborhood. Two men claimed
the dog, and each employed an at
torney to assist in the case. At the
trial it developed that the dog be-
longed to a widow residing in the
neighborhood, and the justice gave
the custody Of the dog to the widow
and assessed a fine against each of
the litigants in the sum of $40.
They paid the fine, and the justice
gave it to the widow. She then said
that either of the litigants could
use the dog when he wished, pro-
vided that neither of them paid his
lawyer. It is reported that the at
torneys are still looking for their
fee.-Columbus Dispatch.

A CASE OF CONSCIENCE.
Why an Editor Could Not BE Judge lr
Literary Contest.


The editor Of a magazine was in
vited to act as a judge in prize
story contest. els it to be an
anonymous contest p the editor ask
ed. eyes, indeed" "And / sup
pose all the stories will be typewrit-
temp" Certainly. We have par
ticularly stipulated that ''I'm
very sorry" was the reply, 'but |
can't possibly"
'sBut-but you will be asked to
read only the best Of the stories
submitted" reminded the publisher.
"a staff of competent readers will
sift the wheat from the chaff,
snd"-
'G'm very sorry but I'll have to
refuse, and I can't tell you how it
grieves me to say this, for l appre-
ciate the great compliment you are
paying me, and / would appreciate
equally the remuneration you offer.
But the fact is this-my conscience
would smite me if I undertook the
work. You see, I have had about
twenty years experience in editorial
work, and during that time 1 sup
pose the manuscripts of every pop
ular and unpopular author of the
day have come to my desk for at
tention. / have been in such long
correspondence with many of these
authors that / know their handwrit-
ings well, and even glance at my
mornings mail will tell me who my
correspondents are. And-do not
smile-I know their typewriters
equally well. I know the various
makes they own, and those who pre-
fer elite type to the ordinary size,
and those who use italics and in
verted quotation marks. / can even
recognize an authors peculiar meth
cd of making a caret and his own
manner of punctuation. But all
this is nothing to my ability to spot
at once an authors style. Attempts
have often been made to deceive me,
but only on rare occasions have they
succeeded. But you must not think
this SO astonishing after all. / have
been tied down to my one line of
work for long time now, and the
number of really successful writer's
is not so great after all. It would
be quite remarkable if I had not
learned something about their char
acteristics after all these years. AL
most all of them would doubtless
submit stories in your contest, and
perhaps the majority Of their manu-
scripts would be passed up to me by
your readers. If, recognizing any
particular writer's work, I pretend
ed to give an opinion based ON sup
posed complete ignorance of that
writer's identity, l should not be
doing the fair thing. For that rea-
son l must decline to act. You I'M
