Arose 70 the Occasion.

A successful schooltescher mar
ried q wealthy widower. The man
had lived alone with his servants
since the death of his first wife. On
the morning after the brides arriv-
al in her new home the cook ap-
peared for orders. Now, the little
woman was far more familiar with
the classics than with roasts and
stews, and she was not a little dis
mayed when Mary innocently put
the question:
can how will ye have the beef
cooked, mum 2"
For the merest instant she hesi-
tated. Not for a fortune would she
have the old servant suspect her abb
solute ignorance of cookery. But
her years in the schooroom had not
been in vain. Calmly and sweetly
she answered:
"You may cook it your way to-
day, Mary, and then another time
you can try my way"
And the cook went downstairs
with a high opinion Of her new
mistress. .- 70

Loyal and Subtle.

In its essence the following sto-
ry, found in the Rev. DR.. Newman
Halls autobiography, recalls an in
stance of fattery in maid of hon
or in France, who, being asked by
the queen what o'clock it was, an
swered, "What your majesty
pleases."
The royal librarian, Woodward,
at Windsor castle was showing the
princess royal the large collection
Of miniatures. As Cromwell turned
up she cried outs
"Oh, Mr.. Woodward, you cannot
like that man.
He replied, "Your royal highness
must know that my admiration and
loyalty to your royal highness'
mother are such that I cannot but
reverence the memory Of the man
to whose struggle for liberty We
owe the unspeakabe blessedness OF
possessing such q monarch on a
constitutional throne"

More Money Needed.

"We are IN Easy street." was the
first statement made to the repre-
sentative cf the New York Herald
when he called at Democratic head
quarters, except" it was added,
''that We have not much money
That is a deficiency which the DEM
ocrats of the South may help to sup
ply. Many have already done their
duty in this respect. Thousands Of
others, however, have as yet given no
substantial indication that they de-
sire the election of a Democrat to
the Presidency. 1t is dollars that
the managers of the campaign need
now; not good wishes. Every Dem

his pocket.book to that end, will do
so without delay,-News and Courier.

STOP SWEARING.
Il Is Nothing but Habit and is Very
Easily Cured.

"Don't swear OF you'll catch no
fish," was remark made the other
day by venerable inhabitant to a
much younger man who was en-
phasizing his talk. by the use Of
some rather strong expletives. No
one was engaged in fishing at the
time, nor was a piscatorial excur-
sion being thought of. The sug-
gestion was made in the back room
of cigar store, where three or four
men were talking over current
events, and the utterance made by
the aged citizen was intended, as he
afterward said, to show his abhor-
renee of the nonsensical use of
"cuss words" Then he felt called
upon to deliver a little homily to
his companions, all of whom, like
himself, are well known residents of
Washington.
'Nlen incur habits" he said,
"that are really useless, and, in my
opinion, swearing is one of the
worst of them. One can see why,
in moments of passion or great e1-
citement, a person may indulge in
swearing, but that some men, and l
know several of them, should break
out with a series of oaths in ordi-
nary everyday conversation strikes
me as beyond reason
'1 presume We have all met men
who regard themselves and are SO
considered as gentlemen who rare
ly express sentence without
swearing. More than that, they
seem rather proud of their prof.
cheney in this direction. I tell you
that swearing is habit that little
determination will easily over
come"
The sermon, coming from the
lips of a man whose hair and long
beard were as white a. mow, had
. good effect. The cigar merchant
was 50 impressed that he declared
he would hang up a ngn in his
back room which should read,
"Gentlemen Are Requested Not to
Swear on These Premises" Wheth-
er they allowed themselves the priv
ilege of "cussing" elsewhere, he
said, was no affair Of his.-Wash-
ington Post.

What He XaNtAd.

Perhaps some of our readers are
critical enough in the use of Ian
guage to decide whether the Gus
toner or the salesman was right in
the following dialogue:
Customer-Show me q small, low
priced shears.
Salesman (facetiously) Perhaps
you mean a pair of shears?
Customer (seyerely)-I mean pre-
cisely what I said.
Salesman (defantly, opening a
specimen article Are there not
two blades here, and don't two make
pair?
Customer (triumphanty) You
have two legs. Does that make you
pair of men?
The shears were done up in pro-
found silence.

"Why, it's nothing At al com

following is clipped from one of our

In nifty baseball battle, char

larly constituted league, the S outh
Dakota druggists yesterday afternoon

the park on the southeast side, the

As might have been expected,
some were in rags, some in directoire

battle array and fought like two

Bryan's Chances Improving.

bryans chances improving
Nine days ago, Sunday, Sep
tember 13, the New York Herald
presented review of the race
for the presidency as it appeared
at that time. 1t then sum.
married conditions as follows
Total vote in electoral college
4S3; necessary to elect a presi-
dent PAP; Republican reasonably
sure 206; Democratic reasonably
sure 16l; doubtful 116; Taft te
win must get doubtful votes
81.
That was on September 13
The week which followed, last
week, witnessed a radical improve
ment in the Democratic outlook
according to the information
gathered by the Herald, no less
than four States-Kansas, North
Dakota, Ohio and Oregon-which
had heretofore been classed as
almost surely Republican, now
being placed in the doubtful
column. These four States cast
Al votes IN the electoral college.
The outlook as given by the
Herald on Sunday, September 20,
was, therefore, as follows: Total
votes in electoral college 483;
necessary to elect a president
242; Republican reasonably sure
1866; Democratic reasonably sure
ISL; doubtful 157; Republicans
to win must get doubtful votes }
"; Democrats to win must get
doubtful votes) 81
Of course an election forecast
of this sort is worthy only the
value which one chooses to at.
tsch to it. The Herald is
famous for it's election pre-.
dictions, but the political
situation at this stage of the
campaign may undergo radical
change within a day. Neverthe'
less, Democrats may justly find
encouragement in the outlook as
it is presented by the Herald,
Moreover, the Herald's CORE
spondent at political headquarters
in Chicago says that in the
Republican camp conditions art
characterized by chill, nervous
ness, inactivity, incapacity to get
together and a failure to realize
the necessity for work, while ht
describes the Democrats as being
not only confident of success
but united and active.
The Herald's list of doubtful
States row includes the following
New York, with SO votes in the
electoral college; Maryland, with
8; West Virginia, with z; Indiana,
with IS; Minnesota, with II;
South Dakota, with 4; Nebraska,
