Fire a. Hettiilger.

Last Sunday night shortly be-
fore midnight the Elmslie livery
barn at Hettinger was discovered
to be on fire. The town was
alarmed, but before anything
could be done to check the flames
the whole structure was on fire
and it was to late even to save
any of the twenty-five horses in
the building, the agonizing
shrieks of which were heard for
but a short time longer All OF
them perished in the flames.
A young man, a sheep herder
sleeping in the hay loft is miss
ing and it is believed that he too
fell victim to the fire. Those
who came first to the place admit
hearing few cries for help, but
when help came he must already
have been overcome by the smoke
and heat. The degree to which
the horses in a part of the build
ing were consumed makes it prob
able that a human body could
have been completely incinerated.
Mr.. Elmslies' loss is heavy, the
barn and stock representing prac-
tically his all and the insurance
being practically nothing. A few
horses belonging to others, A
blacksmith shop adjoining the
barn was also laid in ashes. The
wind having freshened up con-
siderably at the time of the fire,
for time the entire business por-
tion of Hettinger stood in danger.
1t was a lucky escape for the
town.

Base Ball at Hettinger.

1t was just grect
That game at Hettinger last
Sunday.
And Hettinger redeemed itself.
Our boys are glad, because the
Hettingerites match up.
Hettinger has got a strenuous
lot of rooterS.
But the bunch from Lennon
was there 'wid de mon. - And
money talks, don't yer know!
The score was 7 to Sin favor of
Lennon with the umpiring just
a shade in favor of the Hettinger
boys. But then-we had EN- to
spare.
One of the Hettinger boys is a
good one on Home runs scored
only two Of them.
But, why, oh why, wasn't Jim
Clark there? Who knows.
Anyway, Hettinger is forgiven
for that auful game they put up
at North Lennon July Sd.
They'll get the glad hand every
time they come to Lennon even
if they should run off with the
prize once in a while.

TO MATCH THE COMPLEXION.
Main Point to Be Considered When
Selecting Earrings.

Earrings are being worn more and
more, and few women appear to know
that there is a peculiar fitness or even
art in the selection of them. Bern
hardt has been held responsible for
reviving the fashion in France and it
has found favor quickly with the wom-
en- of England and America. 1t is
only another example of the arbitrary
sway that Paris Yields in debating
what women shall wear. In addition
to reviving the fashion, Bernhardt has
said there should be as much care in
matching earrings with the color. of
the wearer as in the matching of
gowns. The actress was asked why
she wore onyx earrings, and she re-
Piled Because my eyes are black"
The repeating elsewhere of this re-
mark brought an inquisitive interview
er to Bernhard, and she said: Most
wYnen never imagine it, but there's
Id art in picking earrings. Dull stones

TASSELS COMPLETE THE BELT.
New Idea That Is Most Becoming to
Ordinary Figures.

Eost of the new high belts are fin
ished in one long end with tassel.
This idea is carried out even in morn
ing dresses, wolfe or pongee, and is
becoming to the average figure, par
ticularly as the new semi-princess
dress is so much the rage. The belt
at present is not fastened directly
around the waist line, but slightly
above it, to give the skirt very long
line in front and on the sides.
Some dresses of light materials are
finished in front directly below the
guimpe in large bow of the material.
This is not unattractive for very slim
figures, for it adds several inches to
the bust measure. There will be, ow-
ing to the present increasing popu-
larity of the guimpe waist, decided
leaning toward the very low line CT
the corsage, for it is becoming to every
woman, and the guimpe will add what
ever is necessary for the sake of
modesty.

enough for any room.
Lambrequins may be straight across
the top of the window. They may be
plated or be cut in three shaped seal
lops. One quaint fashion is to dis
pense entirely with any side drapery
of cretonne, and to have the lambre-
quin form panel at each side of the
window top. Then between the two
panels have the cretonne draped in a
festoon little shorter than the side
pieces on the lower edge.
For straight across plated lam
brequin side curtains may be used or
not, but if no side draperies are used
then the lambrequin should be rather
deep, perhaps quarter the full length
of the window. Much of the effective

in America 1t is easier for the poor to live here
than in London but every year it is growing less
easy. In proportion with the poor mans growing
inability to support wife. vice proves itself to
be on the increase. This advance in vice is found
even in the west, and there, as well as in the
east 1t is due to the growing financial disability
to marry.
During my recent visit to Kansas City several
married women applied to for positions on
The Salvation Army farms. On investigation
learned that they had not heard from their hus-
bands for years.
/ made inquiries and in each case found that
the wage-earner of the family, unable to get
work, had gone away, penniless, to seek IVeli'
hood elsewhere, and had been forced to leave his
wife and little ones to shift for themselves. The
stories were profoundly pathetic. For they told
Of men and women whose right to wed and rear
families inalienable and yet who had been
forced to part from all that each held dear.
Poverty, not more merciful death, them did part.
Can any situation be imagined that would be
more crushing to a man of heart and OF pride
than to be forced thus to condemn to poverty
and loneliness the woman he loved? Could wit
nesses to such tragedy require a stronger deter
rent to matrmony?
There is far more suffering of this kind among
the poor than the world at large ever hears of.
Poor people are proud and most of them have
a passionate love of home. / have seen whole
families resign themselves to probable death
The great dread of the unfortunate poor is lest
their children be taken away from them and
committed to an institution. "Domicide," or the
breaking up of the home, is to the poor what
regicde is to loyal subjects of any king
From a sociological standpoint there many
arguments for allowing the poor man to have a
home and family. 1t is his right He is fonder
of his children, as rule, than is his rich neigh
Dor. His home is dearer to him. Home ties are
his only joys his only recreation.
When | find man starving and unable to sup.
port his family do not believe in tearing out
his heart by proposing the breaking up Of his
home and the commitment Of his children to an
institution. l suggest to him rather. that he 60
into the country, where work is more plentiful
and living cheaper, and l try to find the means
for him to do
Perhaps the best maxim to solve the marriage
problem among the poor is
place waste labor on waste land by means Of
waste capital and thereby convert the trinity
of waste into unity of production"

Search the lives of the men who have made
history, of the men who have achieved true great
ness, who have won fame who have acquired
wealth
The vast majority of them were married OF
these the greater part married young. Their
wives, instead of transforming themselves into
shapely but heavy millstones and dangling about
the CALLED necks of their liege lords have, in
nine cases out of ten done more than all other
influences combined to crown their husbands
lives with success. Nearly all great men who
have been married would confess they owed much
of their fame wealth to their wives.
There are, of course, obstacles to happiness in
married life. So also are there reefs and shoals
in the Atlantic. But the sailor does not for that
reason become landsman He studies the shoals
and learns to avoid them. The pitfalls in matri-
mony can far more easily be studied and avoided
by any couple possessed of a moderate degree
of sense.
My belief, from observation, is that IS out of
100 marriages are happy, and that not more than
five out of that number are unhappy.
Apart from love itself there is a companionship
in married life that draws closer and more beau
tiful as the years go by.
During my last visit to Europe | met distn-
guished man who expressed the deepest interest
in our country.

This is a mistake Propinquity is the most
powerful factor in making two hearts beat as
Many women form their ideals of husband
on novels and plays DISBURSEMENT is bound to
follow They find that the once idealized husband
is only a~common mortal without even pin
feather on his shoulder blade. Then the wife feels
she has been deceived. So she has. But by her.
SELF not by her husband.
Another grievous blow to many wife is that
her husband does not always remain her lover.
She forgets that he is toiling every day for her
welfare, lover would toll. She forgets also
the wide difference between masculine and femi-
