These idiosyncrasies of the mas

If you are born with this ten

The irritable woman, the woman
who is easily upset, easily wound

fined and Sensitive" nature and
that she feels the hurts of life more
keenly than coarser-fi bered beings.
Instead, she is merely INDUCING
disagreeable tendencies; she is
self centered; she is narrow mind
ed; she is jealous and envious
ofttimes without the least suspicion
of the fact, and she has put her
own nerves on edge by a wrong
process of thinking.
One born with an unfortunate
tendency in these directions will
find the effort to cultivate amiabil-
ity hard.
But it is worth the labor. The
woman who possesses or achieves
amiability gives more pleasure to
the world than any mere woman
of wealth, power or genius who is
not amiable.
There is the memory of one
amiable woman which is going
down to the third and fourth gem
erations and is making every one
who prides herself upon any kim
ship anxious to perpetuate and
emulate that ancestral quality.
There Is the memory of another
brilliant and beautiful woman. who
was distinctly unamiable, which ia

1t is for tomorrow and the day after
and for eternity.

lovable disposition.
But strive while you pray.

7 ONG ago amiability was re-
garded as one of the cardinal
virtues of woman.
Then came some writer (per-

Think over all the women

to discover how few can be called

Webster describes an amiable
disposition as "lovableness."
And that is precisely what it is.
There is a woman of great bril-
liancy; her mental powers are
large, her wit scintillates her ac-
complishments are varied; but
these are not what keep her ia

1t is her never failing amiability

There is another woman who

TIME young lady artist. who is
soon to be married in Bos-
ton, to the godson of the
poet Longfellow, has laid down the
following rules for the ideal hus-
band:
He must not smoke.
He must not drink Intoxicating
liquors.
He must not eat meat
No doubt to all young maidens
these qualifications for the perfect
husband will seem just too lovely
and poetic and romantic for any
thing, but every married woman
with a personal acquaintance Of
the peculiarities of husbands will
read OF the brides demand with
shrleks of derisive laughter, and
hope that, for her own sake, she
won't get them.
Good Food the Key.
For the ideal husband is not
pale. under nourished greeds fed

the one that no man who really
likes to eat is ever a vegetarian.
Only those who believe in plain
living and high thinking ever be-
come enamored of the Nebuchad-
nezzar cult There is nothing to
fire the fancy in a plate of carrots
and beans, nothing to thrill the
imagination in head of cabbage,
nothing to draw the wanderer
home in q dish of potatoes, Nor
can any one picture a happy family
sitting down TO a hilarious dinner
of spinach, and arising therefrom
sustained. and comforted, and filled
with good humor.
Vegetarians claim that living en-
tirely upon herbs, and refraining
from meat, makes them mild and
amiable, but this is yet to be
proven and the one best bet in
matrimony is to pick out nice,
fat gentleman, with a pink skin,
who looks as if he could digest
nails, and who orders steak

AS for the lady's objection to
smoking, that also is the voice of
inexperience. Nothing soothes a
man like tobacco, and whatever a
woman's objection to the filthy
weed before marriage. it doesn't
take her long after marriage to
look upon her husbands pipe as
the pipe of peace. and to draw a
long sigh of contentment when she
sees him get out the meerschaum
that he is so carefully coloring.
She knows, then, that he is settled
for the evening, and all is well
Nor does the wise wife put the
pedal down too hard on the drink
question. To get drunk in a saloon
is one thing. To have glass Of
beer or wine in ones own home is
another, and II is worthy of the
consideration of women that the
most domestic and home loving

ARKANSAS SCHOOLS
 ARE WITHOUT PIERS

Little Rock, Dec. 9-The great ost advertising feature Arkansas has today, and the chief attrac. tion to people moving out of the older states, according to Dr. Henry s. Hartzog, is the inn movement made in the secondary schools of the state. pr. Hart zog was formerly president of the University of Arkansas, also the Ouachita College, and is now representing the Charles Merrill Publishing Company, with head quarters in St. Louis.
 Missouri lost many people in the past decade," says pr. Hart zog. and many of these came to Arkansas because the country schools are progressive and well equiped, The farmers are nov ing away from the older states, selling their land for high prices and going to states where land is cheap They select the states which are making the most pro gress in educational matters, and Arkansas stands without a peer in advancement in this nature, and the whole. world is beginning to recognize it."

SHERIFF HUTTON
 RAIDS NEGRO DIVE

Little Rock, Dec. 6 6-Being in- formed that the law was being violated in Argenta, and that gambling was almost openly be- ing conducted there, Sheriff Will Hutton Sunday gathered all his deputies and proceeded to the negro saloon at Eighth and Main streets where 26 negroes were captured and herded to the county jail. The negroes were shooting craps in a frame build ing adjoining the saloon, entrance to which was made through the saloon building.
 The matter will Eprobably go before the Grand Jury, as char ges of selling liquor on Sunday, and a gambling house in connec- tion with the saloon will result in an effort to revoke the license of the saloon keeper. This will bring out the ownership of the saloon, which, it is claimed, show white people of prominence are the real owners.
 Sheriff Hutton, after making the raid, stated that gambling must stop in Argenta, the same as in Little Rock, and he would raid every time he had any evi- dence of gaming going on there.

MORE LAND NEEDED
 FOR UNIVERSITY

Little Rock, Dec. 9-In check ing up the different departments of the University of Arkansas, getting ready to ask the legisla- ture to provide for the needs of the various ones, Pres. Reynolds finds the agricultural department is one of the most neglected of the institution. Arkansas has no land upon which sto conduct ex- periments in farming, and Pres. Reynolds will lead with this in his annual report asking that the idea of renting for an experiment. al station be done away with and land adjacent to the University purchased. Rent is so often in- creased that it soon becomes pro- hibitive, and the farm must be moved, thus losing valuable ex- periments which have been pro- jected involving several years.
 The land now in our possess ion is wholly inadequate" says Dean c. E. Adams of this depart ment, and it seems incredible that Arkansas should permit it's college of agriculture to main tain instructional and research work on such small farm. The four state agricultural schools have four times as much land as we, and the state colleges of other southern states have ten times the amount. All these states and institutions know the foundation of a college of agri- culture is a good farm"
