DOCTOR HALE ON WOMANS
WORK.

In his monthly Talk IN the woman
Home Companion, DIR. Edward Everett
Hale says:
"Will you please to remember that
the bottom rock OF American success
is the habit or determination that ev-
cry place, village, town, neighbor-
hood or whatever you call 1t, shall
have home rule. II / and Mr.. Good
child want to have a road and
bridge which shall go back to the
rhododendron swamp, we build the
road and we build the bridge, with
such help as we can get from Mrs
Tucker or from Mr.. Champlin, and
we do not write to a sub-prefect, who
writes to a project, who writes to
an assistant commandant, who writes
to another commandant, who writes
to an intendent, who writes to sec
rotary of engineers, who sends word
to us from the seat of government
whether we may build the bridge and
how We may build it. Lift where you
stand expresses the foundation prin-
ciple. the subsoil, the hard-pan, the
bed rock OF American life.
Nov, a very queer thing has de-
veloped in the evolution of this prin-
ciplc. It has proved that where the
men of the country have been too
busy. or have thought they were, to
attend to their own affairs, the wo-
men have been able to attend to them
better than the men do.
Take this business which / have
referred to. of a neighborhood library,
feeding a region OF not more than
1000 or 5000 people. The affairs Of
that library, IL they are well conduct
ed. are conducted by the women OF
the neighborhood. They know what
their children want, they know what
their husbands need. And 1t is very
fortunate for the neighborhood and
the library that they can harness the
horses and can drive themselves to
the meetings Of trustees and select
the books and tell Miss Dorcas how
many she may buy"

EYE TROUBLES
Caused BY improper Food.

Most people would never think OF
connecting eye disease with the food
they eat. But when we remember
that every part of the body-every or
gan-is nourished by the blood and the
blood is made of the food we eat, il
seems reasonable to trace even eye
troubles to food.
A N. Y. man had an interesting ex-
perience at one of the great hospitals
in that city that may benefit persons
who have chronic eye trouble. He
writes:
-Four years I was stricken with ar
eye trouble. After being unsuccess'

CONVICT INVENTS AEROPLANE.
Mexican Is Under Death Sentence, and
May Now Win Pardon.

Mexico City, Nov. 27.-The inventive
genius Of Ignacio Fragosa, who is in
prison here under sentence of death
for homicide, has saved his life and
may lead to him receiving an uncon-
ditional pardon and high honors. He
has invented an aeropiane while in
prison. He drew such perfect plans
of the machine, and upon a new
theory that promises to revolutionize
all that has ever been done along this
line, that the prison authorities called
the attention of the minister of justice
to the invention.
A ma chine is to be built under the
direction of FragOsa, in accordance
with his plans.
