WSnaa DId Not Believe Husbands
 to Blame for All DivOrces.
 "rm not saying that all husbands
 arc angels-I haven't lost my mind.''- said Miss Maria Foote. as she sat en- tertaining a friend in the front room of her own neat little apartment, but you don't hear me proclaiming any more that they are to blame for all the divorces. I know one thing. If were a man, and had accident ally got myself married to Lillian Barnes -"
 Lillian Barnesl Not the brilliant Lillian we knew at college? What about herr"
 Haven't I told you? She looked me up last summer. and found me on my back in bed in the next room there. without even a maid in my kitchen; so what did she do but in- sist on staying to take care of me"
 That was good in her."
 "It certainly was-but it broadened my horizon. She sailed in here, su- perb-looking as ever, dropped her hat and gloves and veil and purse on that tea table, and there they lay among the cups and saucers as long as she stayed-five days. She wore my wrap per and slippers-and her shoes stood in the middle of this floor, where she first stepped out of them. Yes, l mean day in and day out. She slept on the couch here, to be near me. When she got up in the morning, she threw back the bedding to air-and there 1t stayed in a rumpled heap all day, never even smoothed up once.
 The bottles she gave me medicine from were all tucked under the edge of my bed on the fioor-and this man. tell Everything you can imagine was piled on it, from a brush and comb and curling iron to a fever thermom- eter left out of it's case.

One day I was lying here. thinking what a splendid mind she had, and remembering how 1 always used to suppose she was a lady of quality clear through, when sudden Iy she made up her mind that I need ed diversion, and sat right down in the midst of the muss to read to me.

 Well, I began to laugh-couldnt ;top-and Lillian said I was too weak Or jokes; they made me hysterical. At that I let myself go. and laughed harder than ever. It just saved me or the time being-and next day she lad to go"

To Keep Wall Clean.

The best way to keep the walls ot the kitchen white and glossy is to wash their painted surface with bran water instead of soap. Boil one pint of bran in a gallon of water for an hour. The paint will look better and keep clean longer when washed with this than when cleaned with seaB or water.

How to Save Quail in Winter.

General Speaks, our efficient state game warden, is receiving hundreds of letters asking for advice as to how to save the quail from starvation in the old-fashioned winter The quail is about the most helpless bird we have in Ohio. Although it winters in this latitude, it hasn't the slightest idea how to take care of itself when the deep snows come. When the ground is covered and the ready food supply is shut of, these beautiful and useful birds huddle together and wait in mis- erable motionless fiocks for death by freezing or starvation. The only way to save them is to scatter on the snow near their haunts liberal allowances of grain or other suitable food. A few of the bolder or tanner birds will find it and go and tell the others. It is gratifying to learn from the volume of the game warden's mail on this sub- ject that farmers in all parts of the state are keenly interested in the con- servation of the quail, whose value to the farmers as an insect destroyer can hardly be stimated.-Columbus Jour nal

A blouse of white linen appears here, the design of which affords an excel lent opportunity for the girl who is handy with her embroidery needle. The shirt is very simple in cut, having a single pleat over the shoulder. the edge of which Is button-holed In fine scallop. At about the bust line this tuck broadens into two rounded tabs secured by pearl buttons. These tabs and embroidery are repeated on the cuff of the otherwise simple sleeve. The scallop outlines the Dutch neck, which Is filled with high collar of lace and finished by a jabot of the same. The belt is also embroidered and fastened
 y a pearly button.

VOLUME XXI.
RAILROADS AND THE RATES.


Commuters are thoroughly aroused
over the increase in rates made by
the railroads. What the outcome
will be Is hard to tell. In behalf OF
the railroads 1t is argued that the
commuters have been using the rail-
roads as a conveyance at rate much
less than that paid by other patrons.
The cost Of living has increased,
necessitating a raise in wages for
railroad employees. Material needed
for the equipment of the railroads
costs more. At the same time, legis-
latlve acts have put the railroads to
greater expense than ever before. It
Is pointed out that the railroad COM
panies Of New Jersey are today pay
ing into the public treasury more
money in the form OF taxes than
they have ever paid before. Exten-
sive improvements also have been
going on at enormous cost to the
railroads.
All this is freely admitted
But the fact remains that the
annual reports of the different rail-
roads show the net incomes of the
respective companies to be as large,
II not larger, than ever before.
Dividends on railroad stock have
reached high water mark. In sever
al instances extra dividends have
been declared. Nearly all the lead
ing railroad companies have large
surplus on hand in the form of un-
divided profits in their respective
treasures. The stock of the leading
companies is selling away above par.
In fact, there is every indication
that the railroads are more prosper
GUS today than they have ever been.
Why, then, is 1t necessary to raise
rates?
We favor doing everything possi-
BILE for the railroads. They have
done great deal for us. 1t has
been the railroads that have built up
this country. This is especially true
in the development of the West. AS
grateful as we are for all this, how
ever, it does not follow that we
should turn the country over to the
railroads for them to do as they
please with it, We want them to
make a good profit on their invest
ment, but after that they should con.
slider the interest that the travelling
public has In the railroads. We dc
not believe In making the rich richer
merely for the sake of allowing them
to pile up wealth, while there are
thousands struggling to make both
ends meet and who are barely able
to exist.
-- With the facts as they now stand
before the public there seems to be
no reason for the announced increase
in rates. If the railroads have any
real reason why they should carry
out the course as proposed 1t is theil
duty to state it. We do not beliey'
the people will object to anything
that is fair. But it is up to th'
= railroads to show u.s."
