even slowed up, but second later a
Kenosha party in an automobile came
by and assisted Hackbarth and the
members of the family out of the ditch.
They were taken to their home at once.

the damage done to the Hackbarth car

Something suspiciously like moisture

held out his hand for the remaining
eleven copies.
He watched the little fellow as he
trotted down the platform till he sailed
round a corner and was lost to sight.
Fifteen seconds later the engine gave

Parents Err In Selecting

W. BY Rev. Dr. MADISON c PETERS. New York.

FILL THE GROOVE NATURE INTENDED HIM FOR.
No man will eve do his best until he finds his proper niche.
Many an ambitious parent FORCES A BOY TO BECOME A
PREACHER, DOCTOR OR LAWYER WHEN MEASURING
DRY GOODS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE FITTEST THING
FOR HIN TO DO, while, on the contrary, we find parents taking
boys out of school at fourteen to sell dry goods whose skill in hair
splitting, whose adroitness at parry and thrust and whose fertility of
resource in every exgency show that nature designed them for the
pulpit or the bar.
PARENTS MIGHT AS WELL TRY TO TURN BACK THE WATERS

NESS THEIR SONS SHOULD ADOPT. GOD GIVES TO EVERY MAN
A PARTICULAR WORK HE CAN DO AND IN THE PERFORMANCE
OF WHICH HE CAN BE HAPPY, BUT THE PLACE WHICH A MAN

Divorce Fairly

BY HENRY q. BROWN. Former supren

4**$** HERE is no question connected with the administra-

TANNED.
That separation of church and state which is a cardinal principle
of American jurisprudence is nowhere more applicable than in that
which concerns the marriage relation.
1T IS NOT PERCEIVED WHY THE PARTNERSHIP CREATED ~
MARRIAGE SHOULD so FAR DIFFER FROM A COMMERCIAL PART.
NERsHIP THAT ONE MAY BE DISSOLVED At PLEASURE WHILE
THE OTHER IS ABSOLUTELY iNoIssoLUeLE.
A proper regard for the interests of the state as we'll as the
PRESERVATION OF DOMESTIC HAPPINESS would seem
to require that when the whole object of the MATRIMONIAL
COMPACT had been DEFEATED BY THE HABITUAL,
PERSISTENT AND UNCONTROLLABLE CONDUCT OF
EITHER PARTY and that relation which should represent the
acme of human happiness is made to stand for all that is most repug-
nant to our desires and anticipations a severance of the ties should
be permitted.
I CANNOT RECALL A DIVORCE FAIRLY OBTAINED,
without fraud and upon due and personal notice to the other side that
did not apparently rebound to the welfare of the parties and prove
a real blessing.

Woman Is Mans Equal

| will not exclude one thing in which she is not. On
~ the whole, she is, if anything, far better than man in
every way.
The MENTAL QUALIFICATIONS OF WOMEN in COM
parison with those Of man have been a subject of unlimited discussion
since Adam and Eve left the garden of Eden. Somehow or other the
question has been considered as settled in favor of the more gallant
sex. But the fact that every little while some brainy woman COM
pletely upsets the accepted solution shows that there must be a mistake.
WOMAN IN GENERAL HAS A BETTER INFLUENCE THAN MAN
AND IS ADAPTABLE IN MANY CASES WHERE A MAN IS NOT:
WOMEN ARE READY TO UNDERTAKE ANYTHING AND ARE
USUALLY ON TOP At THE FINISH. FOR THEY ARE GREATER
THINKERS THAN MEN.
College life has done a great deal to create the feeling of indie
pendence in women.

Sees No Callers.
President Taft saw no callers who
had business to transact during the
day, this beginning his administra-
ton with his heretofore enforced
maxim that Sunday should be a day
of rest.
Mrs. Taft Fits In.
Mrs. William Howard Taft, "frst
lady Of the land" has assumed her
duties without public ceremony or
oath of Office, which, in weight of re-
sponsibility, magnitude of impor-
tance, delicacy Of execution and alb
solute lack of compensation, except
in love for her husband, the Presi--
dent, and loyalty to the nation, as its
first woman, have no comparison.
Mrs. Taft is charged with admin
istering the social and domestic af-
fairs of the White House in a man.
ner consistent with allowing that
reVered and historic pile to be the
public property of the nation, and
at the same time the official place
Of entertainment of the representa-
tlves Of foreign nations and domestic
dignitaries. As the wife of Nh. Taft,
she was "frst lady of the land" in
the Philippine Islands; she was his
wife as a Federal judge and as a
Cabinet minister. In the latter pos
ition Mrs, Taft learned the require
ments Of Washington society.
Removed From Oficialdon.
That the main entrance of the
White House may present as nearly
as possible the appearance of a pri-
vate residence, the uniformed police
officers and frock-coated doorkeepers
have been eliminated and in their
place are negro footmen in livery.
Mrs. Taft has abolished the posi-
ton of steward and will conduct her
domestic arrangements through a
woman housekeeper.
Plans Social Functions.
While the season of prescribed Of
fetal dinners is over it may be pre-
that the new tenant of the
White House will conduct a series Of
informal social functions during the
session Of Congress, which
will bring renewed animation and
social life to the sedate and sombre
structure during the first few months
Of the Taft regime.
Mrs. Taft is 46 years of age, al
her appearance and natural
would not indicate that
fact. To relieve the President from
domestic cares and social adjustments
seems to be the platform of her ad-
.mn1stratlon. and her first few DAYS
