Should tho women Of Persia ever
get a vote, they will doubtless see
10 1t that the lot of their sex is con-
siderably improved, for at the pres

speaks Of his wife to his acquaint-
lnces, and. If obliged to mention her,
t Is by some other term than wife,

She must not exist for anyone but
her husband and from all others she
must be hidden-non-e existing. For

DANDYISM SERVED HIM WELL
Unwilling to Go to tho GullIotine With

In the French Revolution feuil.
letonist named Schlaberndorf, who
possessed considerable ability as q
writer, by heartily espousing the cause
Of the Girondists in all that emanated
from his pen rendered himself obnox-
ious to Robespierre, and at the dicta-
ton Of that fierce leader was incarcer-
ated. When the death cart one morn.
Ing came to the prison for it's load OF
those that were that day to be butch
cred, Schlaberndorf's name was on tho
list of the condemned. The 1ailer in
formed him that such was the case,
and the writer dressed himself for his
last ride very nonchalantly and-he
was extremely fastidious az to his per-
sonal appearance-with great care.
His boots, however. he could not find.
Here. there, everywhere, assisted by
his jailer, he looked for them to no
avail.
II am quite willing to be executed -
said he to the jailer, after their fruit
less search, "but really I should be
ashamed to go to the guillotine with
out my boots. Nor do I wish to de-
tain this execution party" he added,
smiling grimly. "Will it make any
difference If my execution Is deferred
until tomorrow? BY that time I shall
probably succeed in finding my boots. -
II don't know that it will matter
particularly when you are guillotined,"
responded the functionary, between
whom and Schlaberndorf there had ex-
listed a sort Of friendship. Suppose
we call 1t tomorrow, then?"
"All right" and the jailer allowed
sehlaberndorf to remain, not unwil.
llngly, as owing to his universal good
humor he was especially liked by all
the Jail attendants.
The following morning when the
cart drew up before the prison door
for its batch of,victims schlaberndorf,
dressed in his best, including the boots
that had been found, stood waiting
the summons Of the jailer to take his
place therein. Meantime, however, q
new jailer had taken the place of the
Old one, the latter himself having sud
denly been displaced by reason Of sus-
pected disloyalty to the revolutionists,
and Schlaberndorfs name was not
called that morning. Nor was 1t called
the next morning, nor the morning
after that; nor, indeed, ever again. It
was believed by all outside of his
friends in the jail that he had persisted
on the morning originally set for him.
He remained in prison until the sway
Of Robespierre had ended. Then he
regained his liberty, as did the rest Of
those prisoners whose heads had not
fallen beneath tho blood-stained ar.

MAKE THE ROADS EASY

The action OF the supreme court
of Minnesota, in affirming the consti.
nationality Of the Elwell Law, is likely
to; inaugurate an active era of road
building in all parts of the state. It
is to be hoped that all those charged
with the work Of construction will
bear in mind these things:
l. That the cheapest road, in the
long run, is that over which the larg-
est load can be transported with the
smallest expenditure OF power, wheth.
!! er Of horses or motor.
2. That road which is soft, wheth.
er from the nature of it's top dressing
or from want of proper drainage, is
always hard, expensive road to
travel.
3. That no road, so far as the size
Of the load to be drawn over it is con.
| cerned, is any better than it's worst
spot. A quarter Of mile Of bog will
make twenty miles Of perfect road Of
! no avail for a load which cannot be
drawn across the bog. A 15-ptl cent
| grade on a quarter-mile stretch will
make a long stretch Of good road un
| available for load which a team car
! easily haul on level or up pei
cent grade.
4. A curve around the base of a
! hill is much easier to follow with a
| heavy load, and it can be negotiate,
in a good deal less time, than a curve
over the top Of hill. Do not let q
! desire to follow the section lines leaG
to the construction Of a road with
! grades so heavy as to levy a big an
nual tax on the farmer in the way OF
horse flesh, wear Of vehicles and loss
Of time in carrying small loads t.

MINI. Col. of Agriculture.

KILL THE BOOSTERS

Minnesota has surplus from her
farms, annually, of over a million and
a half cases Of eggs. Three-ffths of
these are produced before September
lst Of each year. The government
experts consider that there is a loss
Of 5 per cent in value because of
i" chick developments or because
roosters run with the laying flock. This
common practice causes a loss of
above $l,oooo,ooo annually, to the
be done?
"A few: breeding cocks, the best pro.
duced, should be kept for exchange
with other farmers, or for sale. These
should be confined by themselves,
like all the other breeding stock of
the farm; and all the rest should be
killed or@sold at once. They should
never be allowed to run with tie
flock. You will get just as many
eggs; they will cost you less; they are
more easily preserved; will withstand
heat longer; are better for shipping;
are better for storage; will save the
hens from injury during mott; and
they will go to laying sooner. Mate
up your breeding pens; keep two or
three extra birds for emergencies .
then sell or kill all the rest Of the
roosters on the farm. Help save that
million dollars; and perchance save
yourselves from paying a fine Of $50
for marketing eggs unfit for human
food. Let there be mighty slaughter
of these non-productive, greedy, useless
ROSTERS on the farm.-N. E. Chapman,
Poultryman Extension Div MINI. Col.
of Agriculture.

Honest Election.


Much Of the grim humor ono heara
among practical politicians has to do
with these incorruptibles who owe
their positions to corruption. A case
In point is that Of 4 member Of. the
supreme court OF a western state, who
began his career by running for con.
gress. The story was told to mo BY
one Of the workers who secured hit
election.
"One day the candidate met me-
said my informant, to whom I had
been introduced by 4 practical poll
hcian. as he took me into his conf
dence and began to talk as one bribe,
might to another, and asked me how
things were going In q certain dis
trict.
"'Fine.' I replied. You will have .
good majority there
"'I am not surprised he said en-.
Enthusiastically. When I was speaking
there l made the best speech that
made In the whole campaign"
The worker nudged me as he said:
1T cost us just $1,000 to win that par
ticular district for him, and he
thought his speech did it."-Th<
