Local to Hold Up Husband.

A wife has a right to rob her hus-
band, according to Judge Gemmell,
of the Municipal Court, Chicago Gus
tave H. DeKolkey had his wife ar
rested for taking his money by force.
"My wife robbed me right in my
own kome," said DeKolkey. "She got
boarder and her brother to help
hold me- Then she went through my
pockets and got Sill"
Mrs. De Kolkey was led up IN front
Of the courts desk.
"Did you rob him." asked the
Judge.
Eyes, did" she said. There was
no other way to get honey out of
him. He hasn't given me a cent for
over year. So | decided to- rob him.

and I got what was in his pockets"
This is plain case of robbery,
but 1t was perfectly justifiable under
the circumstances, said the court.
'The defendant is discharged. A
wife has the right to hold up her hus-
band when he squanders his wages
and does not give her enough for her

The Best Ration for Hoos.

In a recent bulletin the College Of
Agriculture of the University of Mis-
souri, has published the results of a
number Of swine feeding experiments,
by e. B. Forbes.
These experiments prove that corn
good corn-is good feed for any
animal and that there is no reason
for Withholding it from any animal
needing food. At the same time, it
is shown that corn alone is not nearly
so good or so profitable feed as corn
supplemented by some proteid food
such as tankage, linseed ollmeal, or
soy beans.
If hogs fed exclusively on corn the
animal becomes very fat and chubby
and does not develop properly; the
bones are brittle and easily broken.
Sixty-five hogs were used in this
experiment and they were divided into
lots of five each. Twelve different ra-
tions were used with corn alone in two
Of them and corn supplemented with
some other feed in the others.
The hogs fed on corn and linseed
oilmeal and those fed on corn and
tankage gained the most; those re-
ceiving corn alone were most unsat-

Nurses Now Want Votes.

The trained nurses are the latest
body of professional women to join
the suffrage movement DR.. Mary
Halton is taking the lead in getting
them together. All the nurses of the
other registries have been invited to
join.
DR.. Halton admits that the major
ity of the nurses, while not pro-
nounced "antis," are not as yet very
keen on the subject Of votes, but she
says that most physicians are in fav-
or Of woman suffrage, and she thinks
that their opinion will have weight
with the nurses. OF the ninety doc
tors in the Sydenham Building, Madi-
son avenue and 57th street, she
found that nearly all wanted women
to vote. The reason for the compar.
ative Indifference of the nurses, she
says, is that they haven't time to
think of things outside their work.

FROM A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT

practically imperative demand of our
human nature to make a change at
that time-to feel a change, to do
something different. And lucky Is
the individul who can obey the in
stinct. The cost and the bother of
the spring flight are nothing in com.
parison with is value. Just as our
winter clothing grows shabby to us,
and our appetites grow peevish, so
our minds need the stimulus of some
thing new, after the ordeal of win

days absence somewhere about this

give each of the servants two days
off between April / and the middle Of
May. BY the way, such a plan helps
one to hold ones servants through
the next six months. Mrs. j., who
keeps up an establishment with
eight servants, deliberately arranges
for Sthem to have their spring vaca.

Luncheons for Brides.

Every hostess takes pride in invent
ing novel and pretty decorations for
her luncheons, teas and dinners, and
she takes special pride when the
guest of honor is a young bride or
bride-to-be. 1t is never a difficult
matter to evolve something attrac.
tive for a festivity connected with
marriage, for there are so many
charming designs that can be used
cupids, hearts, wedding bells, wedding
rings and the like.
AT luncheon given last week for
an engaged girl the color scheme was
pink and white, pink being the fav-
orite color of the bride-elect. The
hostess was the latters closest
friend, and all the guests were lnti
mates of the two, which made the
luncheon very jolly affair.
The chandelier, above the table,
was festooned with pink and white
tulle, and suspended from it was a
large golden hoop Stimulating a we'd
ding ring. From the hoop streamers
of pink and white ribbon stretched to
each cover, held in place there by
tiny cupids, each cupid bearing
card with the name Of the guest to
whom the place had been assigned.
Bride roses filed cut glass bowl I'M

bride, since yellow suggests sun

summer last year wedding bell
covered with field daisies with yellow
hearts and black-eyed Susans with
yellow petals hung above the table.
A big fiat dish of old brass, filled with
yellow lady's slippers. stood in the
centre Of the table, and a wreath Of
daisies and smilax followed the curve
OF the table, just inside of the plates.
Daisy festoons stretched from the
chandelier to the four corners of the
room, and daisies and black-eyed Sus-
ans and tall feathery grasses were
banked on the mantelpiece and
massed in earthenware pots OF
quaint and unusual shapes.
The place cards at this luncheon
were tiny yellow satin slippers tilled
with rice. the little card with the
name on it half hidden in the rice.
Other pretty place cards for engage
menJ or bridal luncheons are hand
painted designs showing a girls head
framed in a wedding ring, cupids
peeping through a heart design, or
twin hearts pierced with arrows. A
woman with some skill in water COL
ors and a certain amount OF inven-
tion can easily paint the carus ror a
luncheon and, knowing the fads and
fancies of her guests, can get in lit
tie personal touches that will enliven
the luncheon immensely.-New York

Profitable Stock.

We are daily coming in contact with
the products of the dairy COW in one
form or another thus it is to the inter-
est of the owner of the dairy breed
of cattle to carefully select animals
when laying foundation for his herd,
which will yield him the best profit,
not only selecting animals which are
from a good healthy stock but animals
which are good profit producers, or in
other words, that yield a flow of milk,
containing sufficient butter fat, to war
rant the animal worth the while of
keeping upon the premises.
While 1t is always essential that ami
mails be well fed and cared for, it is
oftentimes found that the animal pro-
ducing the largest amount of milk Is
not necessarily the animal which de-
YOURS the most feed and for this rea-
son the owner should learn the tenn
permanent of each individual animal
and feed it accordingly, in this way
realizing profits which might otherwise
be wasted.-Farmers' Home Journal
