Wine.

William Henry Wine. who for
many years was highly esteemed
citizen of Monroe City, died last
Thursday, April 7th, leaving an I'M
furnished name and a record of
sterling worth and consistent piety.
The funeral took place from the
residence Of his daughter, Mrs. Sue
Marshall in Quincy, where he had
made his home for three years. The
services were conducted by his
pastor, Rev. Z. M. Clingan, last
Saturday. April 8, after which he
was tenderly laid to rest in Wood
land cemetery by the side of his
beloved wife, who preceded him
about two years and six months to
that house not made with hands"
Amid the strains Of his favorite
hymn, his body was consigned 10
its last earthly resting place.
He was born in Rails County,
August Is, 1889. In his early child
hood the family moved TO Marion
County and settled near Philadel-
phia, where he grew to manhood,
and received the education which
formed his equipment for the bust
ness Of life.
About the close of the Civil war,
he was happily married to Miss
Mamie Bohon, whose gentle, eX-
emplary life is a precious memory
to her children.
Mr.. Wine made a profession of
religion and united with the Pres
byterian church in early life. For
many years he was a faithful and
highly honored ruling elder, COM
manding the confidence and love of
his brethren.
On leaving the farm, he went to
Memphis, Mo-, where he was en-
gagged in business for more than
twenty years. In 1892 he came to
Monroe City and was in active bus
mess till about six years ago, when
failing health forced him to retire.
He was a good mantle soul of
honor. "A good name is rather to
be chosen than great riches" His
children have great reason to re-
joice in this inheritance.
He is survived by three daugh-
tiers, Mrs. Sue W. Marshall and Miss
Maude Wine, of Quincy, and Miss
Alice Wine, of Milford, Texas, who
have the deep sympathy of a very
large circle of friends.

Never Will BE Content.

Our American civic ideals, our pub
lie service, our political life will be all
the better when the strong men that
have demonstrated fitness and capacl-
ty and are past the first temptations
of ambition still keep in the harness
and serve the city and State wherever
their usefulness may be best employ
ed This country never saw better
example of this than in the life oil
John Quincy Adams, who served so
long in Congress after the glory OF
the White House had been his. This
country will never be content until II
has drafted Theodore Roosevelt once
more into some public service. And
to these shining lights that belong on
historys page we can make our own
local additions to suit ourselves. But
the principle is there, the very same
principle, whether in national life OF
in the school districts affairs. st

Who IS the WelI.Bred Man.

1.-THE well-bred man." says no less
an authority than Lord Chesterfield
in one of his admirable letters, feels
himself firm and easy in all COM
panies; is modest without being
bashful, and steady without being i'm
pudent; If he is stranger he OBJ
serves, with care, the manners and
ways Of the people most esteemed at
that place, and conforms to them with
complaisance Instead of finding fault
with the customs of that place, and
telling the people that the English
ones are thousand times better, he
commends their table, their dress,
their houses and their manners, a
little more, it may be, than he really
thinks they deserve. But this degree
of complaisance is neither criminal
nor abject, and is but small price 20
pay for the good will and affection Of
the people you converse with. AS the
generality of people are weak enough
to be pleased with these little things
those who refuse to please them, so
cheaply, are, in my mind, weaker
than they"

She was very pretty little thing
with pair Of confident blue eyes
and q mop OF sunny hair and 1t was
quite evidt,nt that she was aware that
she was a pretty little thing and
meant to make the most OF 1t al
though there are those who would
have said she was making the worst
Of it as she swayed lightly back and
forth on her high-heeled boots, toyed
with her absurd handbag and chat
ted with Bill Jones Ia high. laughing
voice which doubtless carried much
further than she intended.
Say, Bill, do you really miss me
when l don't meet you nights?"
~Sure, do, kid, you're the whole
thing to me you know"
81 couldn't get away last night, Bill
but I'll slip out tonight if you like
and, say bring that swell looking chap
you had the other day. Sarah says
she'll come if you'll bring him and
we can be real swell. So long"
l had evidently overheard highly
developed filtration and was some
what discreet in making my distance
but silly as the little young thing was
this did not disgust me so much as the
fact that ten minutes later I heard
Bill make remark about her that
would have caused her to blush for
shame if she had heard 1t.
II the poor, silly little babies of her
confident kind knew what the young
men they seek SO assiduously said of
them on occasions when they fling
themselves at fellows head or call
him up over the phone in rush hours
or tag him about at night" as one
angry youth summed up his girl in
Inmates, I'm thinking women would
complain less of the disrespect of men
or the ridicule which they have to
endure as a sex simply because certain
black sheep make fools Of themselves
or play at f1irtations or pin their men,
tai energies to fashion books and the
latest in sandwiches and favors.
One OF the most difficult things a
woman is called upon to endure when
she is much thrown about with men
Is the attitude of liberation or fiat
footed ridicule which they assume
toward the feminine sex as a whole
because some women, like some men,
are indiscreet. l believe the majority
of women are pure and intelligent and
practice nor to reprimands upon the
numerous slips in this line.
Each boy was the recipient of a
small allowance of pocket-money

Their noticed how eagerly plans were
made ahead for its use. She deter
mined to use this fact as a leverage
of control
Quietly she announced that at tn.
least sign of break in the way of in
she should unostentatiously raise one
forefinger If this warning were not
beeded she would raise two fingers,
which signal would mean a fine of five
cents
At the end of the first week both
boys had not only lost their whole al
lowance, but were in debt besides; this
too without a word of fault-finding or
scolding.
The second week saw a decided i'm
provement, and the end of the month
proved the Objectionable habit to be a
bit of ancient history.-E. G. w. in

Teaching Children Self. Control,

1t was a pleasure to witness, not
long ago, in a neighbours child, the
working out of the theory of reward
ing goodness instead of furnishing
badness in children.
Little Margaret, of ten, was girl of
unusual brightness, but her quick,
sharp tongue brought her many trou-
bles.
Whippings she accepted as her nat
ural birthright, but they left her no
nearer self-control. At last the mother
was taken i'll. and nurse OF wide ex-
perience came into the home. The care
Of Margaret was one of her duties,
and as she watched her day by day
she felt a pity for the child.
So the nurse studied Margaret, and
she found a point of vantage. Mar
are doing their share of the world s
work but there are many, many
others who by word or action cause
men to speak of the whole sex as
"weak-brained, clothes-minded and
primitive" and of course If woman
is worthy the name of womanhood,
such a thing hurts
The time is coming when one stand
are of morality will be recognized by
both sexes. 1t is the privilege and
right of women to demand this of their
husbands and those of their daugh-
tiers Cleanliness is the requisite of
happiness and self respect and If GER
tain young men refrained from ut
tering the disrespectful remark about
members of the opposite sex and
women Of certain kinds endeavored to
lessen the possibility of the truth of
these remarks, the standard of moral
ity could not but be raised. We some
times ignore as the Stiffness Of youth
what may be fraught with serious con-
sequences for which we may some
times blame ourselves severely.

A MODERN TENDENCY.

There is a tendency among individ-
uals of a certain type to consider
goodness. a synonym for dulness.
Whether this conviction which is, in
many cases, honest, is an outcrop-
ping Of the old-fashiQned idea that
religion is gloomy, long-faced creed,
or whether it is the natural desire Of
youth to throw aside CONVENTIONAL
ties which hamper it's pleasures, the
fact remains that many man and
woman considers true happiness a
quality which does not hinge on per-
feet innocency. To be good is to
them, to shun pleasure, to sacrifice
and forbear and this does not appeal
to their impetuous nature. To be
good is to be bored and it is the be-
lief of a certain element of young
manhood that it is the indication of
true manliness to do those things
which are tinted shade darker than
is conventionally fashionable. A
reputation for such behavior now and
then gives them an air which is said
to take well with the women and
which gives them that coveted dash
and swagger among their companions
which is the desire of every youth OF
this disposition. ITO cut wide
swarth" is to distinguish ones self
above the ordinary run of mankind.
To attend church or religious ses-
sions, to take an active part or pas
sive interest in activities which are
unquestionable in their purity and
purpose to uplift is to proclaim ones
self "a good fellow, perhaps, but a
good deal of a stiff.
Although l am pious man." says
Moliere, 81 am not the less man. "
The eminent Frenchman uttered in
that phrase his protest against the
prevailing sentiment that piety nee
essarily debarred one from manliness
of the kind recognized in masculine
circles.

A good use for the bits of soap that

Gas Waste In Cooking.
The majority of women waste gas
in cooking. The wasteful ones keep
them on tins in the warming oven
time food is cooking, and oven burner
turned on full until the food is taken
out.
When the boiling has started the
gas may be lowered so that it merely
maintains the boiling, and often the
simmer burner is sufficient. In many
instances the oven burner may be
turned off before the food Is done, and
the heat retained in the oven will be
sufficient for the proper cooking of
the food.
