She likes to be petted occasionally,
but not in public. The little private pet
names are very dear to a woman's heart.
When well and becomingly dressed, a
quiet notice of it is always appreciated.
A word Of praise for nice dinner or
supper often more than compensates for
her worry and work of preparation.
She wants her husband not to be her
supporter but her companion, remem-
bering that it is the kind word that Of
ten brings far greater happiness than a
new set of dishes though presents like
the latter are always welcome.
But above all things else, woman
likes to be loved !-Darothy NJ Porges.

WHAT A WOMAN LIKES.

A woman likes to be truly loved, and
to be told so.
She likes noble, manly man to be
thoughtful Of her, kind and considerate
of her welfare.
She likes to be made to realize that she
is good for something besides a mere
household drudge.

THE WISH UTLOOK

it, chuckling all the while.
''Why dost thou do this?" asked
Noah.

brought pig and proceeded to kill it.
"What is the meaning OF this - he
demanded angrily.
''Peace, peace,' said the demon, cit is
not meet that thou shouldst be angry
with thy servant. Thou didnst accept
my aid, Noah, therefore must thou per-
NIT me to finish.''
Next he brought monkey, and this
he also slaughtered Then he danced
round the plant, laughing loudly.
''0h, oh, oh - he roared, in great glee.
MY sacrifice is finished. I have given
four blessings to thy wondrous pl ut,
Noah; bid thy descendants beware.
There is more magic in this plant than

Tell Inc tie meaning of this tric<ery

''Hearken, then," said the demon,
this is the meaning Of my fourfold sac
rifice 1 first slaughtered sheep. This
was to denote that when a man Shall
taste few drops of the wine Of the
grape he will be as harmless as a sheep.
Is not that blessing? Then thou didst
perceive, L sacrificed a lion. That was
to show that when a man tastes little
more he will become as strong as the
monarch Of the animals. Is that not
also blessing?"

blessing comes from the pig?''
''Aha that is my little joke, - laughed
the demon 'When man will drink
too much wine then will he become Il
beast like pig Then, lastly, offered
up monkey. That means that if a man
still goes on drinking, he will become as
silly as a monkey. Oh, oh, oh! Is it not
a good joke? - and the demon rolled on
the ground in uncomfortable laughter
"Fare thee well, Father Noah:' he
cried, suddenly starting up and hurry
ing away. ''Forget not to warn thy
children.'
There is moral in this: that man
must not drink too much wine.

The Legend Of the Grape

mons and goblins. But perhaps you do
not know that, according to legend,
Noah, who built the ark when the great
deluge destroyed the people of the earth,
was the ruler over all the flowers and
the vegetables and all things that grew
in the world.
When the waters sank into the earth
after the rain stopped and Noah and
his children and all the animals had left
the ark, God commanded Noah to plant
flowers and fruits to make the land BEAU
tiful again. One day Noah set out to
plant the grape vine. On the way he
met a demon. In those days demons
walked the earth like ordinary people.
"Whither art thou going?" the demon
asked of Noah
''To plant this beautiful fruit, the
grape,'' he replied, $50 that all men
may enjoy the gifts Of God.''
The demon looked at the fruit very
carefully
cit seems a strange thing he said.
'sand so small, too What is it-food,
or drink?''
"God, in His divine goodness re-
piled Noah, "hath so blessed this fruit

but still he chuckled and as he walked
by Noah s side he burst out laughing
once or twice.
Noah grew vexed, and when the de-
mon noticed this, he said: BE not angry
good Noah, I will assist thee in this
great work of giving a man a thing
which is at once beautiful and useful
and pleasureable "
Noah found suitable spot to plant
the vine, and he gave it Gods bless

RESULTS IN GERMANY.

The Centre party, the hIronsest
in the Reichstag, was the main
target of the recent government
campaign in Germany. and the de-
feat of the Socialists was hardly
less desired by the Chancellor and
the Emperor. II was the detection
of the Centrists, the long time sup.
portcrs of the imperial policy, and
their union with the Social Demo-
Gratis and the poles that defeated
the government last month on Il
petty question OF money for Il mill
tary campaign in Southwest Africa
That the government could have
avoided the crisis, had it wished

was pushed to third reading with
great speed.
There was little surprise in Ger.

and appealed against its further

form combination of parties that

centrists and socialists.
In n word, therefore, the govern
ment aims effect "bloc" of the

dents of German politics have admit

1t could be made permanent There
