Saving the Wife's Strength

There is so much said and writ
en- about the high cost Of livins
and OF economy in the home which
is all very essential and a subjec
that can be discussed often and q
great deal Of advice and instruc
tion along that line is all YER,
right and proper.
But where the most extreme
economy should be used is that
OF saving the strength OF the wife
and mother. So much devolves
upon her. So many cares and
responsibilities. II is a mistaken
idea that a woman, in order TO
save expenses, should endanger
her health by doing the extreme
work, instead of spending a few
dollars for help for a part OF the
day. And there are so many less
fortunate who would be only too
glad to get pay for that extra
work. The husband and father
should see that help is gotten
when needed. For il is much
better to pay a few dollars for
help than for the home to need
her care sometimes when her
strength is entirely gone.
So dear housewife manage your
work in a way that you can al
ways have the evening hours for
a coy chat with husband and
children. An hour when you can
read your bible, an hour when
you can have the pleasure OF read
ing your magazines and your
home paper. Times when you
can have heart to heart talks with
your children. For remember il
is all very well for you to plan for
their physical needs and welfare,
but far more essential to strive to
instill Gods love in their hearts
and train them in the spiritual
way; to help develop all that is
bright and best in their young
hearts and souls; and to aid them
to keep their lives pure and be
true. Fill their young minds with
wisdom so there will be no room
for idle thoughts or any thing
that will mar their happiness for
the present or future.
Housewife take them to visit.
Take them to 60 to church, Gods
holy sanctuary. Teach them to
speak the kind word. Oh, the
kind work spoken at the right
time how much good it does. II

NEAR JAIL DELIVERY
Foxy Parker Sheriff Nips Very Clever
Plan to Aid Prisoner

Parker-By a shrewd scheme Sher-
ift Bailey and City Marshal Wendt,
Of this place frustrated an attempt
to release prisoner in the coun-
ty jail A friend of the prison
or voluntarily applied for lodging
in the Jail over night, putting up u
pretty smooth story as TO his finan-
cially embarrassed condition and
having no place to lay. his weary
bones. The officers Were suspicious
OF the stranger, however, and that
night, eft2r the stranger had been
admitted, Sheriff Bailey put q couple
more men in Jail, apparently as pris-
,oners. hut really as spies. The two
''prisoners" in due time pretended to
fall asleep and when they had COM
menced snoring the stranger moved
cautiously over to the first prisoner.
q man named Austin, who is charS-
ed with the burglary of Il store at
Monroe last fall, and engaged him
in conversation in a subdued tone.
Enough was heard by the two spies,
however, to prove that the stranger
and Austin We're pals. and that the
stranger had been implicated with
Austin in the robbery at Monroe. Ac-
cordingly Sheriff Bailey now has
lodged a charge against him and he
will remain in Jail to be tried with
Austin at q term of state circuit
court, which convened in Parker to-
day.

walked between the other two. was
stripped to the waist. About each
of his naked wrists was tied leather

AT the edge of the circle the prison
