BYRON.


My Mary's gone and I'm alone,
This life seems long and weary;
OF her | dream, for her ! sigh,
When will she come, my dearie'

But not one so defeated,
AS | who never told my love,
In mind often repeated.
! live on hope of happier days,
My Mary sweet, my dove,
When you will sigh the word wtt.

ENGLISH REJECT SIDE SADDLE

A great many English women now
ride astride. For a dozen years it had
been popular in England to scott at
American women for riding man fash
ion, but there has been a change of
front since Lady Crichton, a daughter
Of the first duke Of Westminster, re-
ceived an injury in the hunting field
that may make her a cripple for life.
The horn of the old-fashioned side
saddle carried her under her horse when
it went down in taking fence. Her
spine was injured, and her condition
was so critical that for several days
she was not moved from a kitchen
table in a farm house to which she
was carried after the accident. Riding
experts agreed that had Lady Crichton
been astride she would have fallen
clear of her horse and might even,
with her greater control, have held the
animal from falling. 1t took this prac-
tical example to break down the hab-
itual British conservatism, and now
that the first steps have been taken it
is predicted few English women with
in a year will use the side-saddle.
Women astride now are in the major
ity in Rotten Row, the most fashion
able bride path in London. When an
American rode astride on the Row
only a year ago she was laughed at
and spoken Of as a semi
Baltimore Star.

House Was Erected i'm ~ Hours

Al a distance one group was building
the roofs of the porches to be borne to
their places when finished. At the
same time bricklayers erected the
chimney, and the electrician strung his
wires.
When the work had progressed thus
far the men quit for dinner. After that
the plasterers started work, using a
rough sand finish. The plaster was dry
and hard by the time the carpenters
had finished the roof of aspestos fire.
proof material, which was then put on.
While the roof was being placed the
painters were giving the exterior coat
of paint, the plumbers placing the bath
room fixtures and hot water heater, and
when the gas men placed the burners
on the fixtures and connected the gas
stove 1t was o'clock, and the house
was done.
The usual time for this building is
four weeks to three months. The house
has four rooms, with bath room, recep-
tion hall and front and back porch. The
men were, of course, all on the qui vive
to do their best and achieve the highest
pOSSible speed.

CONSERVATION OF RESOURCES

Seeking for the noble forest sadly, vainly
do we turn
Now our needs become the sorest and we
have no wood to burn
Gone the stately oaks and beeches, and the
hemlocks in their train
But we'll make five hundred speeches and
perhaps they'll come again.
All the earth is burrowed under where
Dame Nature had her store;
We have torn her breast asunder for the
coalbeds and the ore;
We are burning up the vapors in the gas
fields of the vest
But well read some helpful papers thai
will set your fears at rest.
We are killing off the salmon, we are
butchering the seal,
And there soon will be a famine OF the
mallard and the teal.
We are merciless as Russians in the
slaughter of the game
But we'u pass some resolutions, and wen
put them in a frame.
If we'd husband our resources it's the
proper thing to dine.
With perhaps a dozen courses and the
handsome thing in wine;
And our weird. inspired orations, printed
fresh and smoking hot,
VIII convince admiring nations we're con-
serving the spot

THE JOYS OF TRAVEL
or,e from NV vacation trir

Just home from my vacation trip,
My mind still staggers in daze
From watching railroad men equip
Their trains with comforts that amaze.
On each winged palace now appear
Maid, valet, barber all alert.
We had bands, banquets, bridge whist, beer
And had dirt.
We had a drawing room, bar,
A dining hall, a tailor fine;
A nursery and womans car
(Train babes more in public dtne)
We had a porteress of Skill,
Who with our wives weird buttons fused
(And doubled up our tipping billD
And we had dust.
We reveled in the changing scene
From observation platform packed;
We had electric lights, and cen
Five feet Of books, all paper backed.
We had the baseball scores bath,
A phonograph and vaudeville crew,
Stenographers to catch our wrath,
And cnders, too.
We had a folding bedroom suite
Whose windows, keeping out all air,
Let in upon our heads and feet
The garnered CRIME of everywhere.
You may love work or shortcake best:-
On all things all men can't agree:-
But travel (as they said out wesO
Is what scots me. Puck,

Where Women Fail as Citizens

III HE women of Colorado now real
ize that their great mistake has
n been in merely voting, instead of
living up to all their civic RESPONSE
bllities, says Mrs. Alma V. Rafferty,,
the only woman member of the Colo
RADIO legislature, in the Delineator for
September. The indifference of the
women themselves is at the bottom or
their difficulty in gaining recognition.
l have no sympathy with the woman
movement unless women are ready 70
assume the full responsibility of citl-
zenship.
1 consider it most natural thing
for me to be in the legislature. My
position as an officeholder has never
embarrassed me at any time. l nave
felt always that the loyal women OF
the state were supporting my efforts.
1t seems strange to me that am an
object of curiosity to some people; L
certainly do not feel any less woman
ly on account of my experience in pun
lie life, and 1 shall always have pleas
ant recollections of my strenuous three
months in the legislature, and OF the
new friendships formed there.
While my associates and l differed
on many issues and sometimes debates
became rather warm, yet, after 1T was
all over, the feeling of good fellowship
remained. 1 believe that l have gained
a larger and broader view of life, and
although l did not accomplish every
thing expected of me, L am not dis
couraged. What has been accom-
plished will set people to thinking and
the conditions for working women in
Colorado will steadily improve. Our
failures will spur us on to greater &C
tiVity in the coming two years.

APPLE.LAND

Apples along the highway strewn,
And morning opening all her doors;
The cawning rook, the distant train
The valley with it's misty floors;
The hillside hung with woods and dreams,
Soft CLEANS Of gossamer and dew,
From cockcrow to the rising moon
The rainbowed road for me and you.
Along the highway all the day
The wagons filled with apples co.
The golden pumpkins and ripe corn,
And all the ruddy overflow.
From autumn's apron as she goes
About her orchards and her fields,
And gathers into sack and barn
The treasure that the summer yields.
A singing heart a laughing road
With salutations all the way
The gossip dog, the hidden bird,
The pig. that grunts a grun good-day
The apple ladder in the trees,
friendly voice amid the boughs.
The farmer driving home his team,
The ducks, the geese, the uddered COWS;
The silver babble of the creek,
The Willow -whisper--the days end,
With murmur of the village street,
A called goodnight, an unseen friend

governor was introduced by me-and
it was referred to the educational COM
mittee, of which [ was chairman. The
bill provided for the examination Of
school children, a measure of vital i'm
portance which has been enacted in
many states. To my surprise. it met
with considerable opposition and dis
cussion. 1 was able, however, to meet
all questions and show the urgent ne
cessity for such a law.
[ succeeded in preventing amend
ments to the bill, and finally, without
any change, it passed the house on
third reading, but when that bill got
through the senate its own mother did
not recognize it! 1t happened to be
taken up for consideration at a time
when there was a desire to defer aC-
ton on another measure and that dig
nified body of senators played with my
poor little bill all one day. I was en-
gagged to speak that evening at a labor
meeting in town near Denver, and
the last words 1 heard, as I left the
capitol at noon to go to the train,
were "They are tearing your bill TO
pieces"
When they finished with it it was
finished and worthless. They had
struck out event the section providing
for the appropriation, a polite way Of
killing it outright. When the amended
bill was sent back to the house we
refused to concur in the senate amend
ments. A conference committee was
appointed. l had the honor of naming
the committee, and the senators began
to realize that what they had done
might not sound we'll in a future cam
paign. They meekly accepted the bill,
restored or reconstructed by the con-
ference committee, and it went on its
way rejoicing and is now a law.

THE FAMILY FRIEND

Strictly defined is the etiquette gov
erning funerals and only by observing
1t can one avoid giving offense. For
instance, it Is customary, as soon as a
death occurs, for the immediate rela-
tives and associates to be notified either
by telephone, post or telegram. AS
immediate relatives are too sorrow
stricken to attend to such matters, an
intimate friend or relative is usually
asked to carry out such details, and
from that time until the family returns
from the cemetery is in charge. In
point of fact, such an office is GER
tainly one of friendship, for not an in
stant passes but that something is re-
quired. All persons who may feel
privileged to call to offer sympathy
must be met by this efficient indi-
vidual. She must look after shopping,
which, strangely enough to those who
have not had death in the family, must
be done at once. She buys or orders
gowns if necessary, sees the dress
maker and arranges fittings. She
sends home hats and bonnets to be
o tried on for approval, and the selec-
ton of gloves, wells and even wraps
falls to her lot
Nor is this ALL If she is wise she
watches the effect of griew upon men,
bers of the family, and if necessary
calls in a physician before they ar
rive at the point of breaking down.
The writing of notes is part of her du-
ties, md she must be able to tell de-
tails concisely, but not brusquely, to
persons whom she never saw. Besides
all this there is a constant demand
upon her sympathies, and she, too,
must bear in mind that it is only by
not OVERRIDING that she will be helpful;
that it will not be of the slightest use
for her to wear herself out and to last
through the trying time she must eat,
sleep and not become exhausted.
On the day of the funeral the du-
ties of this friend of th4 family are in
cessant. As a dule she has neither
time nor strength to arrange the flow
ers herself and has provided for them
by asking other friends to see that
they are correctly placed.
If the services are held in a home
she has a room made ready for the
clergyman in which he may put on his
vestments, and either she or some one
else who is helping must be near the
front door to be certain that close rela-
tives are. put together in the same
room. Whether or not they are with
the immediate family depends upon
the wish of the latter, but in any event
they should be given precedence be-
fore friends.
If the funeral is held in the country,
so persons are at the house at lunch
time or have taken a long journey for
the ceremony. it is customary to pro-
vide some refreshment after the serv-
ices.
Coffee and sandwiches will be enough,
and they should be on the dining
room table and ready to serve. That
this is done properly is another duty
for the officiating friend to look after.
mis- person, or another, stays at
the house after the family has left for
the cemetery and puts everything in
order. There is always dsarrange-
ment Of furniture, and it is a tactful
and considerate thought to have all in
order when the mourners return.

TVEN Mr.. Edison's promised TWEEN
ty-four-hour concrete house build build
- ing hos been distanced by build
er in the west, if reports say true. A
young bride and groom had been dis
appointed in finding a home, ana
friend who was a builder, one w. Z.
Carl of st. Louis, affirmed that he
would build them a house in twelve
hours. The house was a one-story
cottage, to cost $1,000. He got together
slxty-two workmen, and the thing was
done. The house was cleaned and the
furniture set in and supper cooked
there the same night. The lot was
owned by the builder.
While the one-foot excavation was
dug the masons were busy laying the
concrete blocks for foundation, the
painters were priming lumber and the
gas and water pipes were being laid out
to the street. Next the carpenters
placed the joists and laid the floor,
while others erected sections of the
framework. The New York Herald goes
on to describe the process: one band
of men encircled the house on the out
side and those inside lathed the walls.

Mi Girl Treatment Outrageous

most favorable one for creative work
But the girl placed by the m-chine has
no considerable interval and is doomed
to break down or to be pushed to a
lower economical level. Her only
other chance is marriage. The ma
chine is the most effective device for
speeding up because it puts more
strain on the worker than he can put
on himself without it, but in all piece
work the operator is under a heavy
strain. There are factories in Chicago
Were the rate of pay per 100 pieces
is 1 cent. OF course, the work passes
through many hands, and each opera
ton is simple but 100 operation of any
kind for l cent is a great deal. A hu-
name employer in Chicago recently
looked into the case of a girl who quit
work in his factory and found that
she had been earning SO cents a week.
And, machine or no machine, our
treatment of the working girl particu-
larly the factory girl, is scandalously
out of harmony not only with our ro-
manticism, but with our plain human
sentiments

cravat pins, what not, is collected in
orderly array. In the closet there is
every kind of device, pantaloon stretch
ers, large shoulder supports for coats,
great and small, and ranged on shelf
too high for small people to reach, is g
rack for hats. The top hat is inside
its velvet-lined, dust-proof box.
Just inside the door of the mems
den we are describing there is a stand
for canes and umbrellas, with a COM
partment at the bottom for boots of
all descriptions. On the walls are pan
oplied ranks of swords, riding whips,
fencing outfits gun racks, and even a
revolver holder. There are some pic
lures on the walls elso, which surely
would not remain there if it had not
been the wife who selected them, and
they are there consequently the guests
of her indulgence. A feature of this
room is a special brass rod placed
along one wall on which are hanging
a rainbow Of ties and cravats, enough
to stock a shop. Man, whom an un-
kind tradition forces to array himself
in somber clothing, gratifies his starv-
ing love for color in a perfect debauch
of ties.
