WnuId Pension Mothers.

Pensions for mothers from Uncle
Sam-a sliding scale, according to the
number of children, whether the women
are rich or poor-is the plan of Prof.
Charles Zueblin, of the University of
Chicago, to stop race suicide. No pre-
MUM will be given, however, for the
thirteenth child. Too many children
he considers as bad as not enough.
Just how the pension is to be paid, or
who is to pay it, Prof. Zueblin did not
make clear.
Il think we shall be driven to pen
sion motherhood, unless somehow some
other great change takes place in the
economic status of the wife and moth

In the federal court, ST. Louis, Judge
Adams denied the application of I'll. Clay
Pierce, head of the Waters-Pierce Oil
Company, for a writ of habeas corpus,
and ordered that he be remanded to the
custody of the chief of police to be de-
livered to Sheriff Matthews of Travis
county, Texas, for extradition. Pierce
is wanted there to answer an Indictment
charging perjury in an affidavit made in
May, 1900, to the effect that the Waters
Pierce company was not party to any
pool, trust, confederation or combina-
ton in restraint of trade. In his decis-
ion Judge Adams said the conclusion was
irresistible that the indictment contain
ed the substance of an offense, and that
technicalities should not stand in the
way of justice. Pierce, who was in court
at the time of the decision, showed that
he was laboring under great mental
stress, while his attorney, Priest, was
yisibly Disconnected, as shown by the
trembling of his hands. Priest gave no
tice Of two appeals that would be taken,
one to the Circuit Court of Appeals and
one to the United States Supreme Court,
and Pierce was admitted to bond in the
sum of $4,000.

Walking badly is defect commonly
seen. Let any one who doubts it look
from a window that commands a view
of a public thoroughfare, and note how
few of the women who pass by hold
themselves we'll or move gracefully.
Imagine the scene is a stage, and re-
gard people critically, as if they were
actors or actresses. At once their
method of wobbling, or slouching. or
striding, or hobbllng or dragging will
show up in way that would be ridicu-
lous on the stage, where a good walk
Is the first thing cultivated Many
women walk like wornout cart horses,
making a labor of every step, without
ease, grace or lightness. The general
fault of bad walkers Is that they rest
on the heel longer than on any other
part of the foot That this is a very
common defect can be seen by looking
at the snapshot photographs reproduc-
ed in the papers, most of which depict
some one resting firmly on his heel and
showing the whole sole of his foot to
the observer. The toe should strike the
ground first The wearing of high
heels accounts in measure for the
fact that women SO often put down the
heel first

Things to Learn.

Learn to laugh. A good laugh is
better than medicine.
Learn to attend strictly to your own
business-a very important point.
Learn to tell a story. A well-told
story is as welcome as a sunbeam in
a sick-room.
Learn the art of saying kind and
encouraging things, especially to the
young.
Learn to avoid all ill-natured re-
marks and everything calculated to
create friction.
Learn to keep your troubles to your-
self. The world is too busy to care for
your ills and sorrows.
Learn to stop grumbling. If you can
not see any good in the world, keep the
bad to yourself.

visitation will never be accurately told.
for they are beyond the power of words
to express. Side by side are instances
of shocking depravity and of marvel
GUS heroism. Cannibalism is now COM
mon, and the living are rifiing the
graves Of the dead and devouring the
corpses. Children are being offered for
sale on every hand and even offered as
gifts with the hope of saving them
from death by starvation.
In many cases now the famine vic
tins are dying of disease Or poison.
Ill kinds Of wild weeds are being eat

WISCONSIN SOLONS,
To Shift Names of Candidate,

A bill which will provide for the rota-
ton of the names of candidates for Office
on the primary election ballots in order
to eliminate the advantage TO those whose
names would give them first place if ar
ranged alphabetically HAS been prepared
by the Assembly committee on elections.
1t affects only candidates for State and
congressional offices and legislative offices
where districts embrace more than one
county. or in other words. only those
whose nomination papers are filed with
the Secretary of State. The Nye bill
and Turner amendment. both of which
were killed. affected candidates for coun-
ty and city Offices, and it was thought
would complicate the primary election
too greatly. The committee bill leaves it
to the Secretary of State to determine
the form of ballots for each Assembly
district, changing it for each so that there
will be no alphabetical advantage. The
list of districts arranged according to
population instead of alphabetically and
the ballots will be so prepared that the
candidate whose name appears on the
top of the column of the ballot for one
county will be at the bottom of the col
umn in the next county on the list, and so
on through the State.
