Home Circle


One reason why SO many giils and
boys, men and women. too, are unin-
teresing, is beca Use they try so hard to
be like somebody else rather than be
content to remain himself or herself
in life. In nature you don't sec an
oak posing as a willow, or L black duck
az a yellow leg. or a EorSe as a COW, 0r
a lily as a rose, or a lilac as a peony, or
a dog as a cat. Be natural and you'll
be all right. Many a girl without the
slightest talent for music is running a
piano who should be making bonnetS
or bread: and many a boy is studying
for a learned profession whose proper
sphere is the machine shop or the mill;
many a man is splitting up churches
who ought to be doing good service in
some Institution Of learning, teach
ing or working on "a farm, and many
a woman is trying in vain to be a
leader of society when she should be
a model housewife in her OWL home.

The Girl On The Farm.

The farmers girl does not general
ly realize the advantages she has for
self improvement, over the society
girl, or situated in other positions of
life. The freedom and independence
Of farm life affords opportunities for
study which, il rightly employed,
would develop u farmers girls into
the professional women Of our times.
How Is 1t, girls. and especially you
girls on the farm. that We hear SO
often Of the self made man" land
most of our great men are of that
class, and so little of the self made
woman? Our farmer boys become
great lawyers and statesmen, etc:
have you not the same opportunities
as they? The girl who has been
raised OF the farm, and has aspirations
to any Of the professions, generally
%cOnceives the idea that she must get
away from the farm to do her study
ing, at the very first jump. TO not
be too hasty in leaving the farm,
where you can keep such perfect
health which is the great requisite to
a brilliant mind. And. first of all, |
before you aspire to any professional
work, learn your duties as a house
keeper. Household work will not in
terfere with study. You require ex-
erciSe, and there is none better than
keeping a farm house. And if you
do not wish to take up any profession,
study will not harm you; make the }
most of the talents nature has given
you, and when the happy fellow is met
your happiness will be IF the kind
that you will not regret The time you
considered wasted in study. DO not
be too haSty ia running your neck
into the matrimonial moose. If you |
from choice remain single lido not
fear that you will have to from nessi-
ty). You will find plenty of work to
do, plenty of burdens to tighten, and
plenty of lOveleSS ones npOn whom
to lavish the wealth of your chart
table affections. Be assured that true
happiness is not found in living for /
self alone. Do your best, make ;.
the most OF the material at band, and
at the close of life's journey you will :
enjoy that peace, the knowledge of a J
well7Spent life can give. +
Perhaps it is true, there never was ]
garment too fine for a man or q G
maid; there never was a chair too good :
for a cObbler or a cooper OF a king to :
sit in; never q house too fine to shell +
ter the human head. But often times =
DO we not value all these things far .
more than they are worth and some V
times mortgage a house for the mahog p
any we bring into it? Had we not v
better forego the pleasure of all these )
than consume ourselves before we get =
| place we can call home. and take =
20 much pains with the outside that r

TRUTH has one good friend
left anyway. Time.
Time is the revealer Of truth, as
we'll as falsity, Time proves the
truth and exposes the faults.

And you can ride down any country road in
this country, or any village, town, or city street
and see for yourself what Time has done to
bring out the facts about paint. Over there
you see a muddy, bleary-looking house-dull-
eyed, as it were-low vitality, paint that is
dying-dead, may be.
And there in a stone's-throw away, one that fairly
CLEANS with the reflection of living light, bright, clear,
with that brilliant sheen and radiance of gloss that
tells you the story Of what's in it just as truly as if you
were looking into a mirror to see your own self.
Time has proven absolutely that Horse Shoe Brand
and Color Company of St. Louis, is the truest paint
manufactured in this country. or any other country.
It's the one paint that does what good paint ought to
do, and SO much more than you expect that any paint
will do. This is because it is made of nothing but the
oil. One gallon goes twice over a surface as high as
a ~six-footer and SO feet long-and stays there at least
three years and sometimes ten.
1t pays to know what's good in paint. 1t pays to know where to
get it.. All we have to say is that we know absolutely that Horse
Shoe Brand Paint is the straghtest, highest quality, honest priced
paint for honest work that we a get hold of. Made by the same
house for twenty-Gx years. Sold on its merits; on its character.
Remember, too, the Mound City Paint & Color Company manu-
features a complete line of the highest quality paint speciates "a
Horse Shoe Brand paint for every use: Floor Paint, Barn and Roof
Paint, To-Wauk-On Stain, Screen Paint, Wagon and Implement
Paint, ETC., Grecian Enamefo the Bathroom, Iron Beds and the like.
And so we claim it pays to know that there's one paint store in this
town where you can get good paint advice: and there's some color
cards you ought to have, too, if you're going to paint - they're
hee- to you here at the store - come and get them.

CABINET PLANS ECONOMY.
TAFT Gets His Advisers to Work Cutting
Down Expenses.

W~AsHINoToN, May 1.-THE heads Of
the several executive departments are
now at work IN plans for economy. and
good results are expected when tn Q
estimates for the next fiscal year are
sent to Congress. President Taft has
assured the leaders in Congress that he
will assist them to the greatest possible
extent in keeping down the expenses Of
the Government.
In most Of the executive departments
the bureau and the division chiefs are at
work on their estimates under instfuc-
tons to out everything as much as posi-
BILE. As Don as the estimates are made
a new system Of supervision will be tried.
Subcommittee composed OF members
OF the Cabinet will scrutinise the depart
mental estimates before they are sent to
the Secretary OF the Treasury for sub
mission to Congress. Three Cabinet
members probably will 60 over the est-
mates OF each department.
President Taft. II Ii understood. believes
that the War Department expenses can
be, out SO, 900. 900. The cost Of the navy
will be also materially reduced. and
Secretary Meyer is now working on plans
to this end. On bis recent trip to An
nspolis and Norfolk he constantly had In
mind the necessity Of ourtailing cost Of
maintenance. Secretary OF War Diokin-
son is now In Panama and will doubtless
return home with a good many ideas for
reduction In expenses OF the isthmus.

VETOED By THE MAYOR.
Ticket Spectators Bill and Two Cassidy
Financial Biils.


Mayor Mcclellan vetoed yesterday
the bill which sought to amend the Char
ter in the interest Of the theatre tickle
spectators. The measure provides that
persons may sell tickets to places OF
amusement after obtaining a permit
from. the Mayor and that for the license
q fee Of $500 a year shall be paid for the
first Ave years and a fee Of 500 for each
annual renewal.
This is the high license proposal which
many OF the ticket spectators have been
a~gitating for in the hope that 1t would
drive the smaller competitors out Of
business.
The Mayor in a memorandum explain
ing the veto said that such a license
could be revoked only on charges and
after an opportunity to defend. and
that in the event OF revocation action

Frank Demuth Of the West Side Tax
payers Association said eight times that
the bill ought to be called -the most gi-
gantic salary grab bill Of the century.
Commissioner Harris appeared as thu
spokesman OF the Board OF Education
against the bill. He figured that the bill
would raise an additional $1,000, 900 to
place in the boards hands. and after that
q further agitation for q raise Of salaries
was to be expected. A question from the
Mayor brought out the statement that
the bill practically eliminated the boards
approval as q requisite to the promotion
OF principals and assistants.
on legislation submitted an argument
saying that the bill violates every sound
principle on which teachers salaries
ought to be regulated in the interest Of
the people and the peoples children
Commissioner Stern said the measure
would throw the whole educational sys-
tenn into confusion and bring politics into
the schools as never before. Extra pay
for men was needful In order to get the
men. whose presence was necessary to
prevent the total eli eminization of the
schools. He said that this measure would
bring the total annual cost OF the city's
schools up to 81. 600, 900.
DR.. H. W. Berg. representing the United
Real Estate Owners Association, said
that the taxpayers thought the teachers
ungrateful in that they had been the
first to bring the schools into politics by
undignifed lobbying. Ex-senator Brush
also spoke against the bill. Miss Strachan
wanted to answer some Of the objections
to the bill. but the time had expired and
the Mayor promptly closed the hearing.
