Sue was never sick a minute in her whole life. She lived to be ninety-two yeanl old and died from an injury re- cslyed in q runaway.

HOPE GILDS THE HEAVENS
some Relief and Prospects of Liberty
Through q Union OF Henpeeked
Husbands.

OF all the queer clubs that exist in the
world you will find some OF the queerest
in Lancashire. England. One of these is
called the "Henpecked' club. As the title
indicates, the members are all males. and
you come across a club In almost every
Lancashire town of any size.
The meetings are held. as a rule, in
some bar psrlor. and the discussions are
about members. and very often non-mem-
bers, who have the reputation of being
henpecked. When evidence has been
brought 10 show that a particular man
has allowed himself to come under his
wife's thumb they tax him with It In the
place of meeting. The president delivers
a lecture on the danger of a husband
his wife to usurp his position
as master. and when the others have en-
dorsed his remarks the person to whom
the speeches are addressed is warned
that II he continues TO stand the hem
pecking he will be made the subject of a
demonstration.
The announcement that a "henpecked"
club demonstration is to take place Is
received in the district with mixed feel
ings. The men applaud II and the
women condemn II, and the local police,
recalling similar displays that led TO
trouble. become a little anxious. On the
evening appointed the members of the
club meet at a public house, where they
arm themselves with all kinds of house
hold utensils: then, led by concertina
players or a tin whistle band, they start
out and march along the W streets
Of the district.
One man carries a broom. another a
swab. a third a shovel, or a coal s%cuttle'
or a fender, or poker. Fire tongs, black
lead brushes, washtubs. buckets-every-
thing used in the home. in fact. is carried
shoulder high. AS they march along TO

snatches of songs. in which the name OF
the victim occurs often.
The mission of the verses. which have
been specially composed for the occasion
by a local poet, is to hold up the hen
peeked one to ridicule, the reason for the
demonstrators bearing the household
goods being, of course, to remind him that
having fallen under petticost government
quickly he viii become the slavey.
When they reach the cottage where
their victim resides they form a circle
in front Of the door and sing and clang
their tenders and coal scuttles more
loudly than ever.
The man inside is invoked by the presi-
dent during a halt in the program TO
be a man" and Join his brethren. Some
times If he looks upon the affair as more
of a joke than anything else he does
their bidding, and they reform and march
to headquarters with him at the head.
Usually. however. his wife appears in
stead with a bucket of soapy water.
which she promptly throws over the
demonstrators. or she quickly causes a
clearance with q hose pipe.
To the onlooker it just an exhibition
for laughter and nothing more, but be
hind the scenes there IL generally a lot
of trouble and heartaching. A good num-
Der of these 'henpecked" demonstrations
have sequels in police courts. Some
times it is an enraged victim being
charged with a~ssaulting a demonstration.

SUNSET m YOSEMITE VALLEY
s~pIendOrs of the Waning nay as Seen
AmOnE the WOnder OF
Famed Region.

Speak Of the sunset 20 the man of the
west. Into his mental vision springs the
picture Of a golden gate filled to its rocky
brim with a flood Of glorious coloring, com
mingling with land and sea and sky; or
there springs the picture of an FL Captain
etherealized by a baptism In the fires of
heaven: or there springs the picture OF a
boundless ocean of tinted sands from which
the colors have been gathered and flung
lRainst the limitless horizon of the far be-
yond: or there springs the picture OF mile
deep canyons with their turrets and towers
Of painted rocks which catch the flSeting
shafts Of color and OF light, impale them
for the moment and then films them 20 the
next Jagged peak, there TO cast their myriad
| colored reflections into the depths OF the
chasm.
An ancient philosopher has said that SEN
timent is the most potent factor in the
world. Here in the Yosemite the sentiment
of the pauses between the fading OF the
light and the coming OF the darkness, be
tween the death OF the day and the ascend
ency OF the night. between the conquering
Of the night and the triumphant return OF
the day. lies upon the soul like an JUNCTION
from heaven. 1t is this sentiment. born Of
the perfection Of nature, which teaches the
true definition of sunset. OF twilight Of
night. Of dawn and Of sunrise.
