Women In AdVersity.

Women should be more trusted
and confided in as wives, mothers
and sisters. They have as quick
perception of right and wrong, and
without always knowing why, read
the present and future, read char
acters and acts, designs and prob
abilities, where man sees no letter
or sign, What else do we mean
by the adage mother wit" save
that woman has quicker pereep-
ton and reader invention than
man! How often, when man aban-
bans the helm in despair, woman
seizes 1t, and carries the homeship
through the storm! Man often flies
from home and family to avoid i'm
pending poverty or ruin.
Woman seldom, II ever, forsosk
home thus. Woman never evaded
mere temporal calamity but suicide
or desertion. The proud banker,
rather than live To- see his poverty
gazetted, may blow out his brains
and leave wife and children to want,
protectorless.
Loving woman would have coun-
selled him to accept poverty, and
live to cherish his family and re-
trieve his fortune. Woman should
be couselled and confided in, II IL

grain left over in the litter to
tempt the hens to begin scratching
at daylight, and thus get their ap-
petites in good order before the
morning meal is ready.
Too much importance cannot be
attached to the scratching shed; in
fact, one should not expect the hens
to lay during the winter unless they
are kept busy. The more work the
hens do the healthier they will keep.

Selected Seed Corn.
Editor Home and Farm.

Editor Home and Farm:
wish to have a talk with our
brother farmers on the subject of
seed corn selecting. What excuse
can we make for waiting until
spring to select our seed corn, then
go to the crib and get our seed,
and, of course, we can't tell whether
the ear we select was grown on a
stalk having only one good ear or
one with two or three ears. Be-
sides the makeup of the stalk
should be considered, for. it takes
more fertility to support a large
stalk with ear as high as you can
reach than 1t does a medium stalk
with same number of ears not over
three and half feet from the
ground. So why not select our seed
corn in the field, where we can tell
number of ears to the stalk and its
makeup? II we have not got a
good variety to select from, we
should buy seed next season and
begin our own selecting in field next
fall. If we want ears low on stalk
we should save the lowest ear for
seed, so let's wake up to the i'm
portance Of selecting seed, be it
corn, cotton or any other crop.

Lack OF Exercise.

Lack of exercise If often the
cause for sickness in the poultry
yard Lazy hens sooner or later
have indigestion and other diseases
can be traced to lack of exercise.
At this season Of the year cold
rains are frequent, and the hens
will crowd around in the house and
do no work unless they have been
provided light, roomy scratching

Squalor is the outward expression
of hopeless and unrelieved poverty.
But II is not needed for the poor
mans house to be squalid. On the
contrary, with industry and care,
and the bright service OF a healthy
wife, the tiniest cottage may at
times be an abode in which the most
dainty could pass a short time with
pleasure. On the other hand, many
houses become squalid without the
excuse, miserable as 1t Is, of abject
poverty. Thus, while we may fairly
rank poverty as a main cause uf
sdualor. II is not absolute absence
Of money which is the chief cause.
Cleaning is neglected; and whatever
be the building, and however il lie
finished and furnished, in which
constant cleaning is omitted. dust
aceumulates, unexplained stains
make their appearance, and pro-
gress. more or less rapid as the
case may be. sets up toward decay
and dilapidation.

SAN DIEGO, Cal. March 26.-
Mrs. Effie Duden, charged with the
murder in this city on January 10th
last of her brother-in-law, Bruce
Shelter, was acquitted today by a
jury after two hours and a half de-
liberation.
Immediately following the reading
of the verdict by the clerk. a storm
of Kisses, mingling with the hand
clapping of Mrs. Duden's relatives
and friends, came from every part of
the room. Judge Lewis raped for
order and threatened to clear the
court room if the demonstration did
not cease.
When Mrs. Duden heard the YER
dict, she started up and turned to her
husband, who took her in his arms,
embracing her strenuously. Then he
broke down and cried like a child.
Mrs. Duden' emotion so plainly
visible before the jury reported and
before the verdict was read. seemed
to fade when she heard the words.

and attorneys in a calm manner.

LEGISLATOR WANTS STATE
TO CONTROL POKER GAMES.
Offers Bill for Board to Examine
Players and Issue Licenses to
Capable Ones.

JEFFERSON CITY, March &c
The freakiest of many freak bills
that have been introduced in the
Missouri general assembly was
squeezed in late yesterday afternoon
just before the lid on introduction of
bills went on. 1t was introduced by
Matt Conron, of New Madrid, and
seeks to establish a board of control
for poker players, to consist of four
members whose emoluments shall
come from a certain percentage of all
the 'jackpots opened in the state. I"
The duty of the board will be to
examine all applications for license
as a poker player, and those who
successfully stand the examination
will he entitled to a license and reg
istration. IL is made a misdemeanor,
punishable by fine, for anyone with
out a license TO engage in the nation
al game.
There is an emergency clause to
the bill which reeites that, inasmuch
as hundreds of thousands of dollars
are lost annually in the state by in
competent and foolish persons who
do not know the value of poker
hand and are attempting to play
without proper instructions, the bill
should go into effect as soon as it be-
comes a law. The board of control is
to be appointed by the governor, and
not more than one is TO come from
any one political party.

 The Trade Schools.

The location Of the two Trade Schools, authorized by the State, have finally locaied-one Is assigned to New Bri- tain. in lhe very center Of The state. and the other at Bridgeport, At tie southeast end of the State. They are each large manufacturing towns of di- versified industries, and are well eal- culated to demonstrate The need and importance of such schools to develop self-feliance and independence among young people Of both sexes when they complete their ordinary education.
 There can be no doubt that two years hence that trade schools throughout the State will be established, and whether many or few, Putnam is sure to be one of the favored towns, judging from the message sent to our town by the Board Of Education, in announcing that the Board had assigned the schools to other towns, "but If there had been three, instead of two, Putnam would have been assigned the third"
 While disappointed at not getting one of the trade schools, our citizens have uttered no complaint. They are satisfied the State Board acted disinter. estedly in discharging their delicate bnt duty
 One ef the Manchester papers takes it's disappointment very resentfully but that was done in the heat Of the mo ment, and on cooler reflection itimust come to quite different conclusion, as WAS only one of A large number of towns which were equally in their hope, if not ex- pectation, of getting one of the schools.
