Womsrs Love of Ugly Men.

The illustrious men in history who were distinguished as much for the fascination which they exercised over the fair sex as for their talents and ability were, as a rule, plain and in- sinihcant in appearance. Julius Caesar was & very i'll favored man, and yet when a mere stripling. before his fame in Rome, girls of his own age sighed for him and mature women longed for his love Among the men of later times who were renowned in like manner were Sir Philip Sidney, plain almost to ugiiness; Paul Searron, the comic poet, a cFppls; voltaire, unmistakably ugly, and Rousseau, whose manners were awkward as his face was plain, while John Wilkes, who he'd the power to subtugate any woman who spoke to him for even five minutes, was admit ted by his own showing to be the ug- Hest man in England in his time.

He will then speedily find the answer to his difficulties if he is capable of adapting his business to meet new conditions.

THE nice white house in which the family lives stands In a big greer
yard, and back Of that is the barn and stable in a yard all by themselves.
"In the barn are a cow and chickens and other interesting creatures The
horses live in the stables, and the dogs have coy houses Of their own. Yes, Il
is a very nice home. #@##
"And MoIie lives all over the place. She is such a nice cat that even the

"Monie is such q fine mouse catcher that the cook is very fond Of her and
feeds her ~ much that Monne is never hungry, 80 OF course she has no reason

But because of the many mice that live there Molie likes the barn better
than any other building about the place. She takes maps in the hay NOW and
in the hay filled boxes in which the hens lay their eggs.
"There is one box in q dark corner near her favorite mouse hole that Moi

Mrs. Bddy knew how little chicks should be cared for. She had had

was, the kittens wanted their own furry one, and they soon began to meow,
she peeped into the box and saw that Mrs. Biddy was mothering her very
own kittens MoEie was mad right through. With a angry yowl she lifted
her paw and slapped Mrs Bmdy over the head. Mrs. Biddy was angry then,
and she pecked GROSSLY at Monie. The two had a grand fight, and Mouie got
the worst Of it. She had to go to the house and by her cries get her mistress

Roman Cement Still Holds,

Harper's Weekly: Twenty square
feet of the Roman wall at Caerwent
was demolished recently by a natural
movement Of the soil. An accident of
this kind seems to be the only thing
that in the natural course of events
can really damage a Roman wall, of
which there are several hundred miles
still standing in England. The secret
of their permanence Is the cement. We
do not know the method of it's compo-
sition, but it is far sounder than any
modern cement. Indeed, when some
part Of such a wall as that mentioned
has to be dislodged it Is necessary to
use dynamite.
All tina we know of Roman cement
is that pounded tile forms q consider
able element In. it. For the rest, Rom
an walls were built with stone and
tile from a cement bottom. ~
The finest specimen in England is
the wall that crosses Northumberland
from about Newcastle to Carlisle,
keeping along the ridges Of a series of
small hills that fall sheer to the north,
| The" facing of this wall is still in ad-
mirable preservation in most parts.
and where the heWn stone has broken
away one can see the interior mass
Of rubble and cement.
The CaerWent fall seems to have
been the breaking away Of a length of
the facing. One may practically say
that Roman walls are absolutely en-
during, except for the slipping Of the
subsoil. Nothing touches the cement.
1t is harder than the stone itself as a
rule. But when the subsoii becomes
moist and loosens. disasters to the
walls are natural accidents.

BEEF TRUST.

Australia seems to offer a hope for
relief from the exactions of the meat
trust" a third cargo Of beef, mutton
and veal having arrived in San Fran
cisco, Thursday. The representatives
of the Australian cattle growers gives
the cheering new hat those he rep
resents are prepared to ship all kinds
Of meats to the United States, which
can be transported to this country, and
sold considerably below the prices fix
ed by the beef trust.
Perhaps the beef trust overlooked
its hand In not getting control Of the
cattle industry in Australia. Argen-
tina was invaded, however, this being
the nearest great source of supply,
but the action of the Australian grow
ers has nipped the Argentina plot in
the bud.
Five a ago the American beef
trust entered Buenos Ayres, buying
two large establishments and many
smaller ones. 1t is charged that an
agreement was made with the local
concerns to limit the shipments of
meats to England, but that the new
corners broke this agreement and are
underselling the native companies
abroad at a loss to make them sell out
SO that absolute control may be secur-
ed by the trust. A bill to limit the
killing of beef for export has been pre-
pared and, it Is said, will be passed
by the Argentina congress this week.
Z Trusts have reached their highest
i state of perfection in this country and
h beef combine is applying methods
! elsewhere that were so successful here.
Other cattle producing countries will
not be SO lenient as his country has
been. and in this lies the hope of a.
reduction in meat prices.
The new tariff admits meat free and
unless the trust can control the output
of Australia and Argentina, it's grip
will be @loosened on consumers in this
country. From present indications the
efforts to become a world wide trust
will be baked. " "

POSSIBLE, BUT NOT EASY.

There is a great deal Of good sound
sense in the following editorial from
The Minneapolis Tribune on the "back
to the farm movement. 1t is nothing
short of a crime to make inexperienced
city people believe that life on the
farm is a "aowery bed Of ease" The
Tribune says:
A bright authoress proclaims that
back to the farm" is the only saliva
ton for women. She confesses that
she never farmed herself, although
she lived in q rural region, close TO
nature, for a TIME, long enough to re-
cover her health.
Viewed from an angle like that.
rural life naturally appears attractive.
but to a woman bound by the neces-
sity OF making her living off the soil
the outlook would not be SO rosy. In
theory. to n who has never tried III.
farming on a small scale may be q
lark. but In reality it lis too much like
work.
There is no doubt that women can
be successful as farmers and market
gardeners and poultry raisers. Many
of them are. But they are not women
who go at Ii for the fun of the thing.
They are women who are content TO
get up early In the morning and work
until late ait night. and to painfully
study every detail of the business In
which they are engaged.
They tell of profits 0f from $500 to
