She Lived Too Far Away.

An old woman from the country
bought three boxes Of matches from
her grocer in town. 1t rained when
she was going home, and the matches
became so damp that not one Of them
would strike. on the following satur.
day she took the matches back to the
grocer and upbraided him for selling
such useless stun. The grocer took
out one or two, and struck them quite
easily on the leg Of his trousers, for
by this time the matches had become
perfectly dry. But the old woman did
not think of this explanation, and ey-
claimed: "Tut, tut! That's not good
enough for me. | can't tramp SIX
miles to your trousers every time
want to strike a match. Give me
three boxes of kind | can light al
home" -Martinsburg Herald.

Evidences continue to pile up that
Senator Ltttlepage wants to be the
Democratic candidate for governor. On
last Friday night he entertained Pres
ident John Mitchell, of the United
Mine Workers and took him for a fox
chase. We haven't heard as yet when
the Senator is coming back to The
Talrmont region, the only definite
thing known is that he said he was
coming.

RULES FOR STREET CAR MEN,
Following list Of rules for EN-
ployes Of street car lines published
by the owners of the line in the city
of Wheeling Committee Of Gill
zens" supplemented the list the next
day in one of the Wheeling papers as
follows:
When you see a man running at
break.neck speed to catch your car,
don't pretend you do not see MIN; he
may be big stakeholder in disguise,
and may recommend your discharge,
Don't strike so many attitudes, be-
cause you have an audience, nor flour
lsh Yourself too gracefully when neara
pole; you are not immune from dan'
ger and may break your neck.
Let that pretty young girl alight
from the car herself and rather lend
your stalwart arm to that decrepft old
man or overburdened woman q seat
or so ahead.
Don't imagine that everybody who
smiles at you, is struck on you; above
all never boast of it or brag how you
can gull the girls, for often when a
man thinks he is making a fool Of q
girl, "the shoe is on the other foot
Don't act as though you were preSi'
dent Of the road; everybody knows you
are not, and your dignity thus be-
comes a farce.
That is probably good advice for
the Wheeling car men but there Is
only one or two in the whole bunch in
FaIrmont to whom It could apply.

WASHINGTON Sept. General
James Frazer. Of Morgantown, mem
Der Of the Governor Dawson military
family and an eminent Republican
leader in the congressional district Of
the Hon. Georgec g. sturgiss, has been
intown a few days. The distinguished
warrior has Just returned from Eng
land whittier he went not only for a
rest but to bring home his son who has
taken course in an English school
for boys. Although the lad, fine
manly chap, has lived abroad for n
time, he comes home more an Ameris
can than ever and will soon take up
his duties as a cadet at the United
States naval academy. He was ap-
pointed cadet some time ago by
Senator Elkins and is eager to begin
learning how to manage ship for
his country. He comes from family
Of seafaring soldiers on his m6ther's
side and his bent is for the quarter
deck.
General Frazer came back much inn
proved in health and anxious to par
tIcipate in all that is doing in both
law and politics. He displays no es-
pecial enthusiasm over the swlsher
candidacy for governor although liv-
ing in the old swlsher district. While
devoted to Elkins and to sturgiss, the
general went out of his way to say

good things Of Senator Scott 1t is the,
opinion Of General Frazer that Scott
has made the kind Of senator for,
West Virginia that ought to be kept
in the Senate for life and General
Frazer promised That his efforts would
be fore the unanimous endorsement Of
Scott by reelection when the time for
such action came along.
without disparagement Of the sec
vices rendered by other men from my
State" said General Frazer 81 want
to 60 on record as saying that Scott is
the ideal public servant. He is always
doing for the good of West Virginia
and incidentally for the good of the
country. When we get senator like
Scott WHO'S always at work we want
to keep him where he will do our peo-
pie the most good"
General Frazer remarked that Con-
gresham sturgiss will be renominated
and reelected and it was further sug.
gested by Frazer that strgiss would
take no part in any possible fractional
disturbances that might grow out Of
the contest for the goyernorship.
AS Arnold scherr comes from the
sturglss district there may be a good
deal of sentiment for the genial audi,
tor but Frazer adroitly lodged any
comment on the candidates and the
trouble that now seems imminent.

Others who have money.
The first step toward freedom and
independence is economy. Economy
means the avoidance Of all extraVa.
gance and the application Of money
to the best advantage. The starting
point Of economy Is the first nickle,
dime or dollar that Is saved as a nu'
cleus around which the whole future
may be built.
The trouble with most men are
that they are not willing to climb the
road to wealth by industry, temper
ance, frugality and honesty, but spend
all their time looking for the royal
road that will enable them to attain
the desired goal without sacrifice or
effort on their own part. Consequent.
ly they go through lie dragging AFT

legations that crippIes their independ'

bringing creatures who cannot stand
up boldly and look the world in the
face because they have not dollar
in. their pockets and the independence
that goes with 1t.
1t does not require superior couF.
age or virtue to be economical. Econ
omy is satisfied with the ordinary en-
ergy and effort of the ordinary mind
Economy means to do without some
little thing today, so that we may
have something greater and better In
the future.
Let us look back for ten years over
the life of the spender. How easily
he could have saved dollar each
week, without deprlying himself Of
one single comfort or pleasure. Had
he done so, his bank account would
now amount to $500 plus the inter.
est No matter how small the income,
a portion of 1t should be rellgiously
saved.
To the spender we say: Begin now

ence and throw off the yoke of slay'
cry by starting bank account. Il

If you cannot spare whole dollar
begin it with 10 cents and before an

AMoNeTHE EDIToRs.
a School For srIdes.

In st. Louis an enterprising man
and his wife have just opened a
brides school" Most people will won
der what kind Of instruction pertains
to that sort Of an institution Of learn
ing. AT first thought one would sup.
pose 1t had something 70 do with
matters entirely extraneoUs from the
real purpose. Upon closer scrutiny,
however, It turns out to be a compre-
sensiye course in domestic science, OF
which in st. Louis. as elsewhere,
many brides are sorely in need. This
school for brides will, in addition to
teaching the art of cooking, include in
its curriculum complete knowledge OF
food values; what are best suited to
invalids, all the mysteries Of preserv-
ing and canning fruits, now to market,
how to keep accounts, cleaning paints
care of hard wood floors, effects OF
soaps and powders on colorel mate
rails, laundry work; in short, every
thing which pertains to a well ordered
home, which many young housekeep-
ers have learned through bitter ex-
pertence. One of the principals states
in justification Of the experiment:
eve realize how many homes are
made unhappy and often wrecked by
lack of knowledge. Wives imagine
that If they have the means to hire
servants that ts all-sutticient. They
never think OF what will happen If the
servants leave them in the lurch, or
how quickly a servant learns the ex,
tent Of her mistress's household
knowledge, the lack of which gives
her the upper hand.
when the. brides awaken to the
importance Of these matters and seek
to fit themselves for home making they
will have solved one of the important
problems of the age.
1--WE want our school for brides to
give them a practical knowledge Of the
every day management of a home in
the most common.sense manner. Such
an education Is necessary, and l be-
lieve, will be gladly welcomed by
young wives who have no practical
knowledge Of domestic science"
The school for brides deserves to
succeed, as It undoubtedly will in SO
popular a city Indeed a number of
young wives have already become en-
rolled on the schools roster. When a
class has arrived at stage Of prac-
teal knowledge and self reliance which
entities the pupils to sheepskins it
proposes to celebrate the situation By
a demonstration Of its skill by an en-
tertainment at which the husbands
will be the guests and the wives will
prepare the banquet and act as wait
resses.
Wheeling is not large enough to
make school for brides success, al:
though there are doubtless a number
of young wives roundabout who would
welcome such school. But, however
numerous they may now be it is safe
to assert that with every succeeding
year Ignorance in the highly desirable
art of domestic science, will grow less,
thanks to the wisdom of the board OF
education in producing competent in
struction in the science for the genera
ton of girls who very shortly will be
come brides and nouseKeepers. :

And Kennedy was right. The man who
allows drink to become his master has
no right to hold a position OF response

is enough that he must bring sorrow

PANTALOONED
EAGLES LEGS
ARE 0bSCUREO

Philadelphia. Dec. 1.-THE new $50 gold
pieces so designed as 10 better conform
with the tastes OF the bankers is now in
circulation The new design substantially
conveys ST. Gaudens' ideas but has been
go altered in details that praise has sup
planted the criticism which broke several
weeks ago when the original coin left the
Philadelphia mint.
The new double eagle can be stacked
quite as easily as any other coin. The
high relief TO which bankers objected has
been greatly reduced though both sides
are artistically concave. the eagle and
the goddess standing out boldly.
The new design is virtually compro-
mise with regard TO the ''pantalooned"
eagle. IL cannot be said that the designer
dispensed with the leg adornment OF the
eagle. vet those who objected 20 this fea-
ture have no further grievance as the legs
are obscured The figures 1907 have dis
placed the Roman numerals
The sharp edge OF the coin has been
eliminated. Around Il are stars and the
phrase ~ Pluribus Unum'
There is great demand for the new
issue. The error OF tho designer of the
old double eagles. II such IL may be
called. had a singular result. There were
1000 or the original design issued and
while this meant, $4,000 In circulation
the high premium OF $40 on each coin
brought $4,000. II s said that none OF
the eagles are In circulation as they have
all been bought mp by collectors.
