Real Test Of Character.

You cannot read a man 30 well dur
Ing his busy hours as by what he
does after supper, or from the closing

not gage his character 80 we'll by the
money he spends for necessaries of
the living Of his family, as by that let.

after the necessary expenses are paid.
What does he do with his spare

business and from living expenses?
What he does with that margin viii
throw wonderful light upon his char.
Acter.
The largest part Of every active life
must be devoted to getting a living.
attending to ones affairs, and this is
done By most people in a routine sort
OF way. You cannot tell much about
the real man during these hours, be-
cause he has system, his regular
daily routine, and he does very much
the same thing every day. But the mo
ment no 10 free, he is quite different
man. Then his real propensities come
out People are not natural until after
they arc free from restraint.
Watch the boy and the girl when
they are free from their regular du.
ties, and see how they spend their
evenings, what society they keen.
what companionships they form, what
they do. This will be q pretty good
test OF their character.-Success

HAPPY MARRIAGE RECIPE
honlnterferenee Policy Would Remove
Many Causes o. Discomfort
Among the Welded.

The experience or q married couple
who have lived together for 70 years
without quarrel possesses a practical
value which outweighs any amount Of
theorizing, and the reasons for the
happy union given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Levi Sherwood, who enjoy this dlstinc-
ton, have wide interest. I'VE Just
loved each other and that was ali
there was to It," said Mrs. Sherwood.
But the true recipe seems to be con.
tanned In the husbands remark that
ne minded his own business, while
she tended to her own affairs"
In that simple policy Of noninterfor.
ence Is comprised all the philosophy
not only Of happy marriage, but OF
harmonious human relations In the
broader sense. II the married adhered
to this rule, there would be little mar.
ital discord, less divorce, and fewer
cases OF domestic disagreement In the
police courts. The very latitude of &C.
ton which this enlightened couple
gave to each other served to unite
them more closely and to avert the
conflict OF interests which causes ship
wreck. Theirs was a union without
dictator or boss.
Matrimony. like everything else,
may suffer from too much regulation.
Cities and states suffer from II no less
than unhappy wives and the small boy
VINO is accounted Incorrigible. A gen.
eral application OF the policy Of non.
interference which made this a happy
marriage might remove more serious
causes OF public discontent.--Ne

CATTLEMAN ON BEEF PRICES

At its recent convention in Fort
Worth the Cattle Raisers' Associa-
ton earnestly considered the ma
tional problem of dear meat. To
fatten Texas steer, it was said,
takes $500 pounds of cottonseed
hulls and 1000 pounds of cotton
seed meal. Twenty years ago this
amount of feed cost $11, or 26 per
cent of the market value of the
steer. Ten years ago the feed cost
SIT, or SO per cent of the steers
value. 1t now costs $26, or 45 per
cent of the price of the steer.
There are more cattle than ever, in
the country, but fewer in the feed
ing pens, because feed is so high.
If more steers are fattened the de-
mand for feed will increase, tend
ing to enhance the price. Or if the
price of feed and cotton fall the
farmers will have less incentive to
to produce them.
The convention was not without
hope as to the perplexing gmatters
of high prices. ''There are" said
speaker, thousands of. retail
butchers in this country selling
one-half beef or less each day,
who must make sufficient profit on
this small quantity to meet the
large expense incident to city life
. The great problem before
the American people is to devise
ways and means for the producer to
reach the consumer with the mini
