PHILOSOPHER on MARRIAGE.

According to Herbert Spencer. love
between man and woman arises from
each serving as the representative of
the others ideal. This ideality must
be preserved if love is to remain, and
to insure its preservation there should
be not less. but greater. regard for ap'
pearances between husband and wife
than between any other people. Equal.
ity of rights should also be recognized.
A man cannot regard as his type of
the ideal one whom he tries to com
mand, and whom he has lowered by
denying an equality of privilege with
himself.

nothing so rapidly restores health
and vigor as SCOTS EMULSION.
1t is the essence of natural body
nourishment, so medically perfect
that nature Immediately appropri-
ates and distributes it to every
organ, every tissue-feeding,
nourishing and restoring them to
normal activity.
ScOTT'S EMULSION is not a
patent medicine, but is natures
body-nourishment with curative,
upbuilding properties and without
a drop of drug or alcohol. It con-
tains superior cod liver oil, the
hypophosphites of lime and soda
with glycerine, and is so delicately
emulsifed that it enters the system
without digestive effort builds,
tones and sustains.
After Group, whooping cough,
measles and other child ailments it
is natures ally in restoring health.
After grippe or pneumonia it
imparts strength and health, and
for colds, coughs, sore, tight chests
and throat troubles SCOTT'S
EMULSION gives the greatest relief
known.

GLOBE SIGHTS
BY THE ATCHIsOF GLOBE

Be fair and you will admit that you are
often wrong.
Admitting you don't know, helps some
towards finding out.
Any reason you may give probably looks
like good one to you.
It also occurs to US that jokes on the
bridal couple are not very funny.
1t isn't so bad for a woman to make \
fool of a man If she doesn't let him find
1t out.
What is needed is an early frost trained
to swat the fly without damaging the late
corn.
Regardless of the Updft talk, every
party wants the votes, no matter how it
gets them.
A fireplace doesn't greatly appeal to the
artistic sense of the victim who must chop
wood for it.
While one must be bossed, it makes hin.
pretty mad for a telephone girl to tell
him how to talk.
We have always had some curiosity to
know how a stage cowboy would look Oh
horseback.
petite, he never gets enough fried chicken;
there isn't room.
A young man is rather proud of the
callouses on his hand If he has made them
with a lawn tennis racquet.
It frequently occurs to US that the Sun
day newspapers affords one of the finest
opportunities for conversation
1t is said that an Atchison man who is
always matching pennies, has a penny
with head on each side.
Long observation has led us to question
whether anyone knows much about the
tariff or the Spirit World.
While placing the blame for a wreck
usually results in some one getting fired,
doesn't help a great deal in other re-
spects.
Some men are paid for what they know,
which is all right but it makes a hard
worker weary to see one paid for what
he thinks he knows.

Wonderful, tender, hopeful. sweet she
must be and wise
And with the light of heaven giimmerinG
in her eyes.
That is an angel sculptor-see that you

soul all pure.
Carve me an angel, sculptor. Carve US a

And grave in all the wrinkles her with

Bend her with years of toiling, bow her
with weight of years,
Show us the golden beauty wrought OF
her smiles and tears,
Tell in the stone the story, how she is

that she has borne.
That is an angel, sculptor, Grave it, and
carve it so,
And all the world will see it-see It, ard

Winter school for Aviators.

Preparations to train a considerable
number of hydroaeroplanes for the
army this winter are being made, San
Diego, Cal, having been selected as
the scene of action. A large island in
the harbor will be utilized as head
quarters.
Army officials believe at least ten
men can be developed during the
winter into manipulators of the ma
chine. Glenn Curtiss has agreed to
take charge of the training. The
army has purchased a flying boat" a
more advanced type of the hydroaero-
plane, and this also will be sent to
San Diego.
The army land fiers will do their
winter work at Augusta, Ga, and the
navy aviators will go to Guantanamo,
Cuba.
