GIRLS DON'T MARRY
FOR MEAL TICKETS
Furthermore, They Are in No
Hurry for Husbands.
by DOROTHY DIX.

A man writes me a letter in which he
asks this question:
Don't you think the reason why girls
are more anxious to marry than men
is because when a girl marries she gets
meal ticket. and a man divides his?''
Are girls more anxious to marry than
men? I doubt 1t. OF course there is a
tradition that woman persuades men and
drags him. or inveigles him to the altar.
but this is a fiction that has grown out
OF masculine vanity.
Naturally every normal girl. expects
some day to fall head over ears in love,
and marry, and have a home. and chill
NAL man; but that does not indicate that
the girl is ready to flop down on her
knees and pray, Send me anybody, o
Lord, anybody" and get up and grab the
first man that comes along.
No Hurry to Marry.
On the contrary, the girls OF this day
are beginning to look with a wise and
disillusioned eye upon matrimony. and
to put II of rather than to rush into It.
II does not look to them so much like
the goal of their desires as a state of
captivity that will get them II thIv
don't watch out. In effect, their feeling
toward matrimony is much like our
general attitude toward heaven. No
doubt 1t is a grand and beautiful estate.
but they're In no hurry TO realize II.
Even the common. or garden variety.

A Good Bleach.

Artificial bleach of any kind should not
be used unless It is really required; never
merely to save the laundress a little
trouble. Clothes which are regularly sub
iected TO treatment which should be re-
served for special occasions soon go into
holes and show signs of tearing on the
slightest provocation.
II carefully employed, however. chlo-
ride of lime bleach may now and again
be used with satisfactory results. To a
bucket of cold water add two pounds OF
chloride of lime. Dissolve overnight.
Carefully pour of the clear water into a
large tub. Dissolve one pound Of wash
ing soda in a quart OF hot water and
add to bleach water, with enough cold
water TO cover the clothes. Soak over
night, rinse in two clear waters, and then

Indian Girls as Wives.

The Cree Indian girl is sought IN
marriage. not for love, but because shs
is strong and useful The young brave
who wishes to take her for his squaw
is often faint-hearted, and frequently
sends. by disinterested person, or
secretly leaves in her tent a gaudy silk
handkerchief. purchased from the Hud-
son Bay Company. When his intentions
are thus declared he goes, shy and awk-
ward, to the father. and asks for the
hand of his daughter. Should the parent
refuse consent TO the union the undaunt-
ed wooer seeks a bride elsewhere. He
never suiks or mopes; he never feels
that his heart will break. but calmly Sc
lects and makes proposals for another
maiden. Women are plentiful. and perse-
verance is sure to end in success

Good Idea for Packing.

As you pack your bag or suit case.
keep an account OF the articles you take
with you. This will help you in many
ways.
When you start for home you will
know whether or not you have lost or
misland anything.
And should the baggage miscarry or
get lost or damaged in any way, a list OF
your belongings will be most helpful in
settling matters.
But don't, when you have made IL, do
as one girl did-pack it away in the
trunk.

POEMS THAT HAVE HELPED
HOPE.

Published at the rsqusst II Carolins G. shlrn)
Hope Is the anchor Of the soul,
The sweetener of life's bitter cup,
The lone ones friend, the hearts best goal
The boom that keeps the spirits up.
Without II life's a dreary waste,
Its void no other power can MI:
II gives of heaven a sweet foretaste
And drives away each earthly I'll.
II cheers the prisoner in the cell
The sailor on the sea:
Twas born with Adam. when he fell,
Twill live TIL life shall cease to be.
The mother, bending Ger ner child.
Struggling in the agonies of death,
Can check each gasp OF anguish wild.
And calmly watch fits latest breath,
For hope viii ease her aching heart
And bid her dry her tears,
For the nome where they'll ne'er part
VIII be theirs in the coming years.

kind. as evidenced when he vetoed
a Lill requiring railroads to whistle
and stop at crossings. He said
the governor had not given the
women of the state a square deal,
as he had vetoed most of the moral
laws passed by the last legislature,
and had also vetoed the law allow
ing women their separate property,
and by which act, Idaho is forct d
to lag behind other progressive
states. He said the only moral
bill the Governor signed was the
search and seizure bill, which the
speaker said, HawIey was absolu-
tely forced TO do after pressure
from his own party leaders, who
had plead with him for hours.
After signing this bill he gave 81
varieties of reasons in his approval
why he should not have done SO.
Mr.. Martin said if he's elected
governor he will approve all bills
designed to improve the morals of
the people, if they are legal and
have merit. and will not append
any reasons for his approval.

how the governor had insisted that
the assessors tax the farmers on
the basis of full cash value while
the railroads aud property of cor

stances, got off with 60 per cent or
even less.
He cited Col. Dewey's big pow.

how Governor Hawley had steadily
