How to Revive Fading Roses.

Bouquets of wilted roses, seeming
ly fit only for the rubbish heap
may be completely revived and
freshened by a method which. in
its results, is identical to that of a
heavy dew. The life of a rose bou-
quet can easily be increased or
heightened to twice what it would
ordinarily be by this simple method
says the Housekeeper. Put the
stems of the roses in a tumbler of
water and then place the tumbler
and roses in a vessel of sufficient
size to allow the bouquet to be COW
cred A large pail or boiler is very
good for the purpose, or, if a large
number of roses are to be revived
a bath or washtub will fulfill all re-
quirements. Cover the vessel tight
ly and leave undisturbed for twen-
ty-four hours. BY that time the
roses will be found as beautifully
fresh and invigorated as is if just
plucked from the bushes and with
every petal covered with the arti-
fetal dew. Wilted lettuce may al
so be freshened and kept in crisp
and excellent condition for weeks
if treated in the same way.

Business Selects the Controlling
Officials of the Nation.

Since, in the present civilization
most governments must, in their
ostensible functions, appear to be
nodded by public opinion, and pub
lie opinion is shaped by the press,
we here come upon one great lever
by which Business, the only real
power, manipulateS the machine,
says Colonel Edward Russell in
Success Magazine" 1t has, of
course, many others that some
times coordinate with the efforts of
the press and sometimes works
quite independently. Thus, for in
stance, in these days Business US
ually selects great part of the ma
tional cabinet and all of the ma
tons judges. Mr.. Morgan, repre-
senting the iron and steel part of
Business, may select the Secretary
of State; Mr.. Harriman's successor,
representing the railroad part Of
Business, may pick out the Attor-
ney-General; Mr.. Ryan, represent
ing the traction and lighting inter-
ests, may choose the Secretary of
War; the gentlemen who control
the great oil industry may choose
; the Secretary of the Treasury; and
by these means a cabinet is assur-
ed that will not be hostile to the
welfare of the great opponents of
Business. If, for example, condi-
tons require that much national
money be released in Wall Street,
the Secretary of the Treasury can
be depended upon to release it; and
if conditions require that a great
corporation be not prosecuted for
an unavoidable violation of the law
the Acknowledgement can be de-
pended upon not to prosecute it.
If conditions require tnat one man
appointed to be minister to China
shall be recalled and another man
sent in his place, the Secretary of
State can be trusted to comply
with conditions.

Sentence Sermons.

The supernatural may be but the
natural in its incomprehensible
operations.
When it comes to the sharp
points in a sermon most hearers
are filled with generosity.
If we paid more attention to en-
forcing good laws we would waste
less time making poor ones.
In religion most people hope to
be cured by the doctors words in
stead of by their obedience.
Some men think they are not
spiritually minded save when they
are conducting CHIMES on their own
souls.
Our nation will be the home of
righteousness only as righteousness
is practically taught in its homes.

STATE FUNDS
A RECORD.
Treasurer Cowgirl Makes Big Re-
turns in Interest.

Jefferson City, Mo-, Jan. 5.--All
records have been broken by the
State Treasury Department for the
large returns way of interest on sur
plus State moneys. During the
year 1909 State Treasurer Cowgirl
received $86,76609 in interest on
money held by the five deposito-
RES This is just $31 ,923'30 more
than was collected by State Treas
urer Gmelich for the year 1908. The
highest amount paid in interest
during the last administration Of
the Treasury Department was in
1907. when the total reached $780,
1882, or $6,17717 less than State
Treasurer Cowgirl received for the
past year.
Mr.. Cowgirl has obtained a great
er rate of Interest for the State
than was obtained by Mr.. Gmelich.
Mr.. Cowgirl paid the accounts of
the members of the Legislature and
the employees in cash when request
ed to do so by a joint resolution OF
the General Assembly. Mr.. Gmelich
refused to pay these accounts until
after the passage of the appropria-
ton bills, which always happens
just at the close of the session. Dur.
ing the four years that Mr. Gmelict
was Treasurer he not only held uI
the legislative scrip prior to the
passage of the appropriation bills
but persons to whom this money
was due, and this included al
members of the Legislature and EN-
ployes, were forced to have thei
accounts shaved.
And still Mr.. Cowgirl does not as
sert that he is entitled to garland
for having performed his simple
duty and paid out money owed b!
the State to those to whom it wa
due and in Carefully and lawfully
handling surplus moneys.

Where Mary and Her Lamb Went
To School.

Mary Had a Little Lamb" is as
familiar to American children as
their A B C's, but not many of
them know that it is a really,
truly" story.
1t all happened in Massachusetts
many, many years ago. Mary Saw
yer lived in pretty little house in
Sterling. Her father owned a num-
Der of sheep, and when one of them
died. leaving a dear little lamb
motherless Mary carried it into the
house, gave it milk and made a lit
tie bed in a box by the fire for it.
The lamb grew day by day and be-
fore long showed Its devotion to
Mary by trotting after her wher-
ever she went. But the story of its
faithfulness did not reach the world
until 1T followed her to school one
day" No wonder the sight of a
snowy-white lamb within the halls
of learning made the children
laugh and play"
1t was not long afterward that a
friend of the teacher, who had been
told the story, wrote a poem which
soon became known throughout the
entire country, and has since been
a favOrite with the children.
Mary's care of the lamb was am
ply repaid. Many years later, when
she was a grown woman, happily
married, and a member of the Old
South Church of Boston. Mary I'M
raveled a stocking made from the
wool of that very lamb, wound bits
of it on cards and sold each of them
for twenty-five cents. The money
made in this way she gave to the
fund which saved the Old South
Church from being razed to the
ground. The Designer for January.

ASKS NEWSPAPERS TO HAVE A

Former President of Women's Clubs

Melville Stone, President of the
Associated Press, writes Sarah S.
Plat Decker, former president of
the General Federation Of Women's
Clubs, in The Delineator for Janu-
airy, at the Press Session of the
Biennial Convention of Women's
Clubs in St. Louis, IN 1904, made
the following statement:
DO you know that not one line
of scandal would appear in an
American newspaper if not read
and demanded by women? Let me
tell you that the scandal papers Of
the country are supported by
women"
We, honest. thoughtful, serious
minded mothers. wives and sisters,
come to make this plea to Melville
Stone and the newspapers of the
country. We fear that they will
not, because of commercial reasons,
refrain from publishing scandal,
horrors and indecent happenings
but we make this heartfelt en-
treaty. If these things must be
published, will they not segregate
