She spoke of the great organization she represent ed; of the homes and the little children, of those living in pro hibition territory and the need of congressional action to protect them stillfurther from the power of the liquor traffic. It is said that the committee, which is composed of eighteen of the ablest lawyers in the house of representatives, kept Mrs. Stev- ems busy answering questions, which she did so to the point that a hearty laugh followed some of her replies, The committee gave further evidence of it's apprecia- tion of her remarks.

CURRENT VERSE.

For Those Who Fail. -Au honor to him who shall win the prize,' The world has cried for a thousand years, put to his who tries, and who falls and dies, I give great honor and glory and tears Give glory and honor and pitiful tears To all who fail in their deeds sublime, Their ghosts are many in the van of years. They were boA with time in advance of time. On. great Is the hero who wins name. But greater many and many & time. Some pale-faced fellow who dies u shame. And lets God finish the thought sublime. And great is the man with a sword un- drawn. And good Is the man who refrains from wine; But the man who fails and yet still fights on. Lo! he is the twin-born brother of mine.

Mothers Suggestion Helped Georos
 Out of Predicament.

'The late Henry o. Havemeyer, said a sugar jobber of New Orleans, possessed in a marked degree the kindly virtue of charity.
 "On my last visit to New York it was some months before the panic -I spoke harshly of a millionaire who had been accused of double dealing in a banking transaction.
 Said MT. Havemeyer: Let us not condemn this man unheard. Remem- Der that his guilt has not yet been proved, nor has he yet told his own side of the story
 Then MT. Havemeyer laughed and said that in the most untoward condi- tions accused men were often able to clear themselves. He told of a young girl who a week or so after Christmas complained bitterly to her mother:
 Mamma, doubt if l shall be hap by with George. I fear he is of de- captive nature.'
 "'Why, darling, what do you mean?' the mother asked.
 "'Well, mamma said the young girl earnestly, you know that collar pin he gave me for Christmas? He swore to me that he paid $25 for it, but to- day saw its exact counterpart priced at five dollars at a jewellers.

 A lady recently left $1,000 year for the comfort of her parrot. Far more extraordinary was the bequest of an Ohio gentleman, who left money for a cat infirmary or sanitarium, which was to have rat holes for sport and ample grounds for exercise. The same testator, wishing to give some con- solation to the feline race, whom he supposed to supply the material named catgut, left directions for his intes- tines to be made into fiddle strings. and these to be sold the proceeds to be used for the purchase of an accor- dion which one of the nurses at this cat infirmary was to play continually for the delectation of the cats.

A woman Is so artificial she can da- ceive herself.
 It's very comforting to a woman mt to believe in heredity after she has children.

 It's very useful to be in business so you can be kept late at the office whan you want to sit In the front row at a chorus girl show.
