Washington and Grant Alike In Their
Fondness for the Noble Friend

The disposition OF the late Presi-

cause of offense to certain prim peo-

they would have learned that horse
talk was also a characteristic of that

2CuND TO LAND SOMEWHERE
Mr.. Manheim's Roundabout Way to
Find Some Place Where He
Could Get "Rights."

There may be a little eXaggeration
In this bit of alleged court news from
tho Troy Times, nevertheless, the tale
rests upon the important fact that
wives need no longer complain that
the law fails to protect them against
their husbands. The "rights" of wo-
men in this respect seem more secure
than the rights" of men in the CORE
spending case.
Simon Mannheim, holding ice to the
side of his head, appeared in court
and demanded a summons for Mrs.
Mannheim.

Simon, but mine wife is peevish. See

The clerk expressed sympathy at
the state Of Mr.. Manheim's eye, but
declined to issue the summons. "This
court" said he, "is for women that
are not supported by their husbands.
Go upstairs to the police court"
Mr.. Mannheim went upstairs. The
magistrate looked at him coldly. "This
court is for wives who are abused by
their husbands" he said, mot for hus-
bands who can't take care of them.

Mr.. Mannheim, obviously puzzled,

ANSWER TO A QUESTION.

a Reader-"Is there an authorized
national holiday, countrywide and de-
signated by Congress or other proper
authority?" There is no national holt
day. The only bill of this kind that
has ever passed Congress is the one
making Labor day" a holiday in the
District of Columbia only. This was
in the second session of the Fifty-third
Congress. There is no other statute
on the subject The proclamation of
the President designating day of
Thanksgiving only makes it legal
holiday in the District OF Columbia and
the Territories.

Let wife and mother love her home
and her children with the most abso-
lutte answering devotion, and serve
them with the most unselfish fidelity,
there are nevertheless times when she
is weary. She knows better than any
one else the steps and the stitches, the
same things done over and over, and
the pettiness of the trials that come to
the nursery and kitchen. They are SO
insignificant that she is ashamed to
talk about them, and we fear she
sometimes forgets to tell her Savior
how hard they press her; and so, bear
ing her cross all alone its weight
becomes crushing.

We have seen little children while
running at play, or perhaps on an err.
rand for their parents, get a fall and
bump head or skin finger and
when they would go to their parents
for kind word of comfort they would
say: "Well, next time look where you
are going and don't be so awkward go
long now and hush" That child will
certainly find out sooner or later that
its parents have no. love or sympathy
for it, and it will grow up without any
kind feeling toward that parent But
on the other hand let the child come
to the parents for advice, and If kind
words are spoken the child will never
forget it, and will always look with re-
spect on that parent.

The father returns to his home after
n weary day at business. He is tired
in body and mind. Coming back, as
his latch-key turns in the home door
he throws off care; he is joyous at the
thought of the dear ones he will meet
after hours of absence. His young
daughter, in pretty gown, with the
bloom and freshness only girlhood
wears, should be ready to give him
the attention he loves-the kiss, the
CHEEKY word--to help her mother and
the rest in letting her father see how
much he is loved at home.

In the home should be found the
most delicate and refined society, as
here it is that we receive our first and

human character.

of contests, the Roosevelt forces
never won a point of any moment.
With all the machinery in their con-
troll, the Taft men did not let go of
anything that could endanger their

their clever work was the way in
which the report of the committee on

This enabled Chairman Root to make
the eminently fair ruling that the
delegates whose seats were involved
in each fragment of the report should
not vote on its adoption. 1t sound
ed good, but 1t was perfectly safe
On only one of these reports was the
Taft majority reduced to a perilous
point. That was the California case,
considered one of the strongest
brought up by the Roosevelt men, and
the Taft vote was 542, just two over
a majority
On most of the reports the Roose
welt leaders did not demand roll
call. First would come the commit
tee report. Then a minority report
with a motion to substitute It, Next
Chairman Root would turn to Jim
Watson of Indiana, who would rise
and move to lay the minority motion

Even Senator Root Smiled.
Even Senator Root himself could
not always keep a straight face as
this process went on. Once a colored
delegate from Mississippi rose to a
point OF order asserting that the
steam roller was exceeding the speed
limit.

mighty glad to receive this assur-

the thousands of spectators stuck
manfully and womanfully-through
the long nominating speeches and the
balloting on the head of the ticket
For the spectators there was always
the hope of some exciting or spectacu.

really did happen, and every one
jumped to his feet, as when a tire
bursts in an automobile race.
"Riot and 5loodshed."
