IlnLe THINGS THAT COUNT
Man Who Mlnlmlzes importance of Trifies Makes Life a Burden
 to Ills Wife.

IL Is the little things that do mai. ter-to a woman. a man would say little thinking how greatly he himself Is influenced by the trifies he desplses II the dinner is late, or his cuffs are trayed, if his wife has forgotten tc tidy her hair. or she is not ready al the time appointed, he is distinctly rufhed; the fire is laid ready for the olaze-it may be in business that the match is applied or it may be at nome; it matters not where, the re. suits are disastrous, and the little thing is responsible.
 Home life is made up of little things, but unfortunately the man does not realize it. He little thinks how wearying are the little things. and he has no compunction in adding to them. He does not know how much 1t means to the tired housewife if he even stoops to put coals on the fire If he puts away his slippers himself. If he does not leave cigar ends in ey- cry available spot But he is so oc. cupied with the big things that unless he has been trained to be thoughtful he makes life burden to the woman he has promised to cherish.
 To the woman who lives among the little things they matter intensely. It is bitter to hear that he forgets the anniversary of their wedding, that he Lets her birthday pass, as the dear ones at home never did; that he sel dom thinks of giving her present or suggesting an outing; that he does not even pass the salt at the table. nor open the door for her to go out It is the little things which build u, the barrier between husband and wife.

FRENCH LICK HOTEL
 MAY HAVE TO CLOSE
Thomas Taessrt, The Owner Al n'Itted on the Stand That csmb-
 ling Was Carried On.

Paoli, Ind, Mar. lO.-Admiss,ons o, rom" Taggart, owner of the French LICK notel concerning his connection With gambling at the notorious resort proved practically every charge of tba state and brought the present trial so Tar as the state is concerned. to dro. inatic conclusion.
 Judge Buskirk overruled the stren. uous objections of the defense and sd- mitted the much contested Taegart de. position. Through the use of this do- position the prosecution was able to occupy the unique position of proving us case through the still belligerent de 'endant.
 Probably the most surprising feature or the document was the admission of Iaggart, under a hot fire of questions that one of the missing leases under which the casino was let. did not con. tain clause prohibiting gambling. Tn 10 this time the chief defense of tha hotel corporation has been the sun. posed fact that it prohibited gambling In its leases of the casino.
 should the jury uphold the conten. ton Of the prosecution. and Attorney General Bigham says that is the only verdict possible in the light of develop. ments, it is probable that the charter under which Mir. Taggart's hotel is operating will be revoked immediately. The result will be that his corporation the stock of which Is owned solely by himself. must go out of business. Such proceeding will be unique in the his. tory of the state, in that 1t practically amounts to the confiscation of H,OOO,000 hotel institution.

Scotland and England have agreed to forget all old unlzindness and erect monument of Flodden field com. memorative of the courage of thei ancestors of 1513. Both sides are right. for the Scotch lost the battle quite as much by King James high strung chivalry preventing him from using his strategic advantages as by the superiority of the English archery Flodden was among the last of the gres: battles in which firearms counted for little or nothing. Prob ably the last appearance of the bow in war was in Russia century ago The Russians at Eylau, 1907. had a body of Bashkirs in chain armor who opposed arrows to French bullets, and during the retreat from Moscow in 1872 occasionally French soldiers found themselves targets for the same Sild archers.
