funds to aid the Irish parliamentary

everything hinges on the action to be

"If the budget Is thrown out by the

necessitate large expenditures by our
party. The election will help Ireland.

Its Action Problematical.
Just what the house of lords will do
with the budget is problematical. Per-

impression that 1t would pass the budget,
but you hear something different every
minute.
1HcTe are many features OI the DuOEoC

from Galveston to Corpus Christi. Tex.
The President is expected to board the
Window at Corpus Christi for a cruise

The departure of the Window from Gal

other cutters would join her in that hunt

The Widow a Good Wife.

Recent statistics indicate that the
popularity of the widow Is waning;
but should this be the case she can
most certainly afford to be generous,
for her reputed charm has almost be-
come proverbial. There are many in
stances of the second marriage Of wild
ows, and it is noticeable that the hus-
band in such cases frequently happens
to be the younger Of the two. This is
not extraordinary, for women invaria-
bly, remain young longer than men,
and a oma who has encountered the
exceedingly enlightening experience Of
married life knows exactly how to deal
with a man. She Is intuitlVe and can
instantly diagnose his mood. If he
appears worried and distract, she is
tactfully quiet and sympathetic. She
does not force his confidence, because
she realizes quiet we'll that he will
probably tell her everything later on.
When necessary a widow is more en-
Pertaining than a young girl. Her
knowledge of life has made her inter
esting; her experience has sharpened
her intellect, and she knows exactly
what to say upon each occasion. AS a
hostess she is usually perfect. Her
previous knowledge Of married life has
neCessitated the requirement of Gull
nary art, n she realizes that a
dainty, well-served dinner appeals to a
mans sou quite as much as mere
beauty Of figure. But she is careful

when making a new hat, that it was

purchasing the material she hopes to

method practically solves all the main
points to be4~considered. She learns
the amount of silk or cloth necessary
for the operation, for she carefully
measures the paper or muslin with
which she has experimental. She
