OF INTEREST TO WOMEN.
WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW.

While the few may reach success by
trickery. the great majority achieve it
as reward for honest endeavor. The
only sure road IS the honest one. where
the value of 100 cents is given for each
dollar taken IN. The workers most in
demand are those who give full value
In results, like a laundress Of whom
was told the other day. She reserves
Saturday for her own use, as she has
family TO care for, but the other five
working days are monopolized by pat
rons, who pay regularly and appreciate
her work She gets more than she AK
poets by her willingness TO treat every
body with honesty.
I was told recently that there were
scores Of good dressmakers-but all were
engaged to the limit, found upon inves-
tigation. The best carpenters have no
idle time. and first-class statesmen are sell
dom out of employment Tricksters have
the good fortune to find steady employ
ment, sometimes, because OF the demand
for workers but sheir hold upon en-
ployers is weak-the arrival Of better

I think I told YOU of the miliiner who
changed the flowers on hats after selling
them--she has been forced out Of bnsi-
ness by her dishonest methods. One girl
who had been cheated. gave the estab-
lishment a bad name and the place was
passed Dy. It was a pity that a cspa ole
woman was so careless of her own in
terests as TO deliberately ruin them.
In a suburban district Is a provision
store which looks very attractive, inside
and outside. but the proprietor just makes
a living because he has a reputation for
dishonest weighing. Perhaps be has re-
formed, but the old residents are afraid
TO trust him and new ones are warned,
sooner or later Across the street is a
prosperous dealer who makes mistakes,
perhaps. bat IS willing to repair them.
He has honest intentions, and that counts
for much.
I once employed an upholsterer whose
poverty was puzzle to me. 1t was
solved later on when ] examined sofa
which was beautifully done, as far as
the work was concerned, but on which
he had made more profit than he deserv-
ed by a substitute for tapestry used
where Il did not show. He had charged
me for tapestry to cover the entire piece
of furniture, and / am not likely to for

a case where each should be his own

The person who faces these condi-
tons in his work should Offset them
by certain amount Of fresh air and
exercise secured at night and on Sun
days. not kinds that will tire 10 the
point Of exhaustion but restful kinds.

MUST PROVE WAR
: HORSE DEAD TO
COLLECT VALUE

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 5.
If Levi p Smith. of Pierceton,
Ind, can prove that a horse he
rode in the civil war is not alive,
the United States government will
pay him $3.50 for the loss of the
animal. The burden of proof is on
Mr. Smith, and until he comes for
ward with satisfactory evidence he
will continue to be $3.50 out of
pocket.
If the horse is living it is the old
est equine in the world and breaks
all records for longevity. 1t is up
ward of so years old
When Mr.. Smith started to the
civil war as q lieutenant his father
gave him a beautiful iron gray
horse to ride One night while the
young lieutenant was sleeping and
the horse was tethered nearby, the
animal either broke loose and
strayed away or was stolen. The
house committee on war claims is
ready to pay Mr.. Smith, but under
an ancient ruling it must first be
shown that the horse is dead The
fact that there probably never was
n hprsr since the world was
created that lived to be half cen
fury old does not feaze the COM
mittee which announces it can do
nothing until Mr.. Smith comes
along with his proof.

NON-RESIDENTS CAN
MARRY IN AN HOUR

BATH, Me. March 5.-Maine is
beginning TO acquire reputation
as the state of easy marriages. The

ment and leave by the next train as

their Intentions five, days in adj
vance. and II they go out OF the
state for the express purpose OF
getting married they are obliged to
file their certificates within seven

RECRUITING STATIONS
CLOSING

Many recruiting stations through
out the country and practically ev-
cry auxiliary station to the main
offices in the land are being closed
in order to cut off an unneeded eX-
pense in the war department 1t
is generally the drifting population
of the country from which the
United States army has secured the
greatest number of its men during
the last few years. Cold winters
and unusually hard times for those
of the working class who have been
caught in the midst of the winters
without occupations from which to
earn a comfortable existence is re-
sponsible in the greatest part for
the remarkable influx of recruits
into the ranks of Uncle Sans body
guard.
NO CHOICE FOR MONTHS
1t has been many months since
young men aspiring to brass but
tons bearing an enclosing of the
American eagle and a uniform of
blue have had their choice of de-
partments in the service. 1t has
been a case of going to whichever
part of the army the officers saw
fit to send them or to remain out
of the army for more than a year.
