THE LAPSE OF FIFTY YEARS.
Divorce After Six or Eight Years vs.
Happy Golden Wedding and
Merry Grandchildren.

A Judge in all eastern town the other
day, while hearing tie divorce case Of
a young couple, displayed Solomon
like wisdom. The principals in the
case were in court and with them
was their eight-year.old daughter for
the possession of whom both were
|con1ending Husband and wife were
mutually anxious to separate and the
judge was about to grant the decree
when the question as TO the guardian
ship of the child arose. Calling the
child to his bench, the judge as ten
derby as he could. told her her father
and mother We're to part forever and
inquired which one she wanted to 60
with.
81 want them BOTH" the child said
please, mister, can't-I be with both
love them BOTH
The plea of the child affected the
Judge. Calling the husband and wife
before him, he said:
II am not going to grant this d.
vorce. Go home with your chil'l and
live for her"
While this little drama was being
enacted in the court room a more
beautiful one occurred in ano'' er part
of the same city. in modest little
hv- hni, nh 11,oy
and grandchildren. venerable couple
We're celebrating their golden wedding.
For fifty years they had toiled to.
gether, unmindful OF the vic;ssitudes
and the pitfalls OF life. For fifty years
this couple enjoyed each others com
pany, were content with their lot,
struggled along in fair weather and in
storm that they might ear their sons
and daughters and bring them up as
good men and women. They lived FOR
their home and their children. No
thought OF the divorce court for them.
They were an old-fashioned couple,
the antithesis OF the couple who ap'
peared in the divorce court.
There is q lesson taught by those
two Incidents in this town. Civiliza-
ton is advancing everywhere, but the

furnish the strongest argument that

PERSONAL APPEAL the BEST.
SUGGESTIONS to the Small Town Retail
Merchants for Interesting the
Buyers. Vs.


a jealous eye at their city brethren
who have the ways and means for ad
yertising. If they would but stop ant
think minute they could easily find
methods that would make the city
dealer jealous OF them. The small
town retailer has the advantage of be
ing able to use ''perso nal appeal ad
yer:ising to the highest degree which
after all. is the only method that gains
and holds a customer and makes him
a valuable asset.
The progressive retailer took the
trouble to secure the opinion OF some
OF the leading small town retailers as
to the best method of trade promotion
The answers given below show con
clusiyely how easy it is for this class
OF merchants to use personal appeal
to advantage.
Get out your handbills by the hun
dreds, especially when you have any
special goods on which you are max
ing a run.
Compete with the catalogue houses
by offering to furnish at the same
price, plus expressage or freight and
expense of money order, the goods
made by the responsible firms with
which you deal.
Mail circulars early in the fall, win
ter, spring and summer, advertising
|seasonable goods at fair prices.
Look after your store windows. The
way to sell goods is to show them.
Get hustling roadman out after
all possible customers. If he cannot
close up any special deal. try and get
the man into the store-and then it's
up to you, Mr.. Proprietor.
Get a list of the property owners
within a half dozen miles of your
store and then lombard them.
"Send out circular each month
calling attention to your seasonable
goods.
Send out a woman to drum for
women's trade.
Get acquainted with your custom.
ers. and make point of calling their
attention to goods for which they have
not asked.
keep all your promises to custom.
ers. Get reputation for honesty. Be
kind to the children who come to the
store; they are your future customers.
Notice the elders, and be able to call
every man by name as he comes into
the store.
Paint your store when it needs it,
and above all keep everything clean
and neat.
Keep season goods we'll displayed
and priced in plain figures"

ELECTRIC FoGHoRNs.
Which May be Blown Without Effort
by Pressing Push Button.

The time honored foghorn and still
the one in most common use on myri
ads of smaller boats is of the sort that
you raise to your lips and blow. .Tol
erably hard work blowing foghorn
Bigger foghorns for larger boats are
set in a box, the box containing bel
lows by which the horn is blown. At
|tached to the bellows is an outside
lever by means of which the bellows
is operated by hand. A lot of noise
this foghorn makes. to be heard for {
considerable distance.
There are now made, used on many
power boats and yachets, electric fog
horns, the operating of which calls for
the exercise of neither lung nor hand
power. In these horns there is at
tached, enclosed at the smaller end, a
metallic diaphragm to which is con.
nected an electric coil which when
electricity is turned into it vibrates the
diaphragm and sounds the horn. Elec'
tricicity is supplied from storage
battery or from current generated on
the boat if it is electrically equipped
To blow an electric foghorn you simp-
ly press a button.-New York Sun.

By RUTH CAMERON.

The question came up as to whether
a certain little mother was doing the right
thing to allow her first baby to complete
ly absorb her, to the extent of absolute
neglect Of and indifference to all other
interests.
Margaret used to be so interesting and
progressive and alive said her critic.
She read Johns law books and took an
interest in all his cases. and she USED
to read history with her younger sister,
who is teaching. She always read the
papers and magazines and took such an
interest in current affairs that John said
she was better to talk to than any man.
And she was always ready with bright
ideas for the club and church entertain

when the baby was little. but now he
is a year old. and she has a splendid
maid. and she might leave him occasion

not do a. much as She did. but she might
do something except hang over that baby:
Why she never reads anything, and she
goes about the house looking untidy half
the time.
She worries over the baby so that she
is getting to look old and Careworn at
twenty-eight, and she goes out so little
that she's pale and Istless. John never
used to go To- the club, and now

TAKE SLEEP CURE
DURING LEN 7

The cessation of social activities dur
ing Lent gives to many fashionable
women the opportunity to take rest
cures. to indulge in fresh beauty treat
ments, and generally prepare for the
gayety of the Easter season.
The average housewives social affairs
do not assume the position Of duties"
but she cannot do better. however, than
to copy this plan of her more fashion
able sisters and make Lent a time for
yearly sleeping cure.
Take the pictures, covers. and as many
things as might attract the eye out of
the spare room. put up dark green shades
that may be drawn down over the win
dow, open this top and bottom. and then
set aside three hours a day or more if
possible to lie on the bed in the room and
sleep or doze.
Spend Week There.
Don't read, try not to think. spread
your face with cold cream, and put on
your indicated gloves if you want to
do a little beautifying at the same time
but learn to keep your eyes closed and
your mind fallow for those hours
Some women spend a week at a time
in the room, having their very simple
meals brought to them, and going out
only for an hours brisk walk every day:
but even a few hours each afternoon will
work wonders toward eliminating the
feeling of tired irritation that has so
many of us in its grip at this time of
year.

There are all sorts of clever figures for

One young Washington woman has

clever in working out original figures.
Her services during the season are in
great demand
She furnishes the favors when the
hostess desires it: in fact she win plan

an pianist generally accompanies her,
and dancing to her absolutely correct
rhythm is delight
Many of the old-timc dances are being
revived, and heard a celebrated dancing
master say recently that society should
not confine itself to the waltz and two
step. but embrace many steps and fig
ures, Sc his teaching is along these lines,
including fancy dancing, which is once
again classed as a necessary accom-
plishment, besides being most excellent
exercise.
