Systematic WRITING.

All busy women know the value OF
system, and every busy woman should
systematic her daily tasks.
In the matter of letter writing many
women are great procrastinators.
They persistently leave important let
tiers unanswered until the last pos
sible moment, and then have to write
a hurried note, often forgetting to
take up important subjects for dis
cussion.
The best way to do is to have one
day or evening set apart for weekly
letter writing. One woman reserves
Tuesday morning for this purpose,
and she allows none but the most
pressing duties to interfere with her
writing.
While readiAg a letter she will jot
down any particular thing she wants
to mention in the reply on the back Of
the envelope, place 1t in the letter
rack on her desk and when Tuesday
comes has all the weeks correspond
ence ready for answering before her.
II during the interim Of the receipt
and answering Of letter she thinks
Of any point she wished discussed.
that, too, is noted on the envelope.
With this system letter writing is Q
real pleasure-one that is looked for
ward to every week with keen inter
est.

CUMMINS FOR PRESIDENT.
rWebster CITY Herald.

4 meeting of the friends Of Senator
Cummins was held in Des Moines last
week to consider the advisability of his
candidacy for the presidency. What the
outcome of it will be is yet uncertain.
If he decides to be a candidate, 1t is
likely that the La Toilette movement
will close in this state, as 1t would al
vide the progressive forces and both
men stand for the same public policies.
La Toilette is without doubt the
strongest man in public life today and
the best informed on the vital ques-
tons of the time, but such men rarely
become presidents. For years the
standpat press has ridiculed La Fol-
lette and depicted him an unsafe radi-
cal and self seeking politician. A
great many people have become i'm
bued with the idea that he is an ex-
tremest and demagog. Latterly
more just view is accorded him and he
is now generally recognized as an hon
est, able and sincere man, masterful
and strong with purpose. Senator
Cummins is different type of man.
intellectually he is La Follete's equal
and he is not whit less sincere. He
has personal qualities which the Wis
consin senator lacks and qualities
which are useful in the world OF poll
tics. His personality attracts while
that of La Toilette by its uncompro-
missing hostility and outspokenness
sometimes repels. 1t is quite likely tina.
Senator Cummins would prove
stronger candidate, and he is just as
trustworthy as far as his responsibility
to the people is concerned. He is cap
able Of great things and he does his
work in such a way that he does not
arouse antagonisn to the same extent rs
La Toilette. He is recognized today as
one of the great men of the nation and
it is said that he has strength in The
east as we'll as in the west. Stranger
things have happened than that he
should be picked as the man OF the
hour. 1t was Sidney Foster who said
that in all that is good Iowa affords the
best and in Senator Cummins she has
presidential timber Of the very best
quality.

the frugality and the investing spirit
which has characterized these broth

they had their own way to make. They
vent into the fruit business because
they understood that business the best

NO HANDOUTS IN FRANCE
Some Ingenious Methods by Which
the Police There Keep Prisoners
From Escaping.

Scarcely a day passes without a
picture appearing In the French press
of prisoner being led OF to the Sta
ton by policeman and the descrip-
ton, THE Apache being taken away
handcuffed by the agents" As mat
ter Of fact handouts are altogether
out of date in France and are never
used.
Instead of the bracelets every po-
liceman carries "cabriolet," which
is a very rough and massively made
article resembling huge watch
chain some ten inches long with q
stout wooden crossbar at either end.
An expert can slip this over tho
wrist OF an offender In q twinkling
and with both the crossbars in his
hand has only to give it twist to
inflict the most excruciating pain
and compel instant and lambliko sub
mission.
Another common method Of pre-
venting escape is to make the pris-
oner place both his hands in his side
trouser pockets and then pass .
string round his wrists and round his
waist and bid him march. He can
walk at a very smart pace. but any
attempt to run out Of a shambling
trot Immediately brings him down.

II no string IL handy all the brace
buttons of the trousers are cut of
and the culprit is made again to put
his hands in his pockets. Az in the
former case, he can only walk. since
so soon as he frees his hands his
neither garments fall about his legs
and he is "entrave" in the latest
fashion.
Few of these devices are apparent
to the casual passerby. who often
wonders at the passive docility with
which some villainous looking indt
vidual under arrest follows his captoI
to the station. Sometimes ON a coun
try road one may meet couple OF
gendarmes on foot or on horseback
leading q prisoner between them.

regulation whereby prisoners are
