FAIR WOMAN
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.

A WOMAN is easy to understand;
L \ This is the secret, second hand,
When you pat her on the cheek
With your envelope each week,
Saying Here's the money, DEAR"
As you pinch her shell-like ear:
When she show'rs you with caresses,
Planning on new hats and dresses.
When she calls you her Greek god,
Though you know you haya a pod,
She's happy.
When she meets you at the door
In the morn at three or four,
Trying with small fists to hit you,
Threatening to pack and quit you;
When she throws a dish or two
Clear across the room at you,
When she swings-and not in vain
With your heavy walking cane,
She's out of sorts.
That is the secret, second hand,
4 tCoBlaB is easy to understand.

Key to the Mind.

There you see in almost every
line the magic word education"
We can all understand that. We
must accept this term in vir-
tually new sense.
We must cease to regard it as
simply signifying a process by
which a certain, very limited,
amount of knowledge is instilled
or forced into the mind of a
child, and we must come to con-
slider it as the key to the mind
itself, and the means, when wisely
used, of opening and developing
the mental powers, even when
they seem to be absent or defec-
tive
Education is not a sausage
suffer; it is a ladder by which
man mounts toward the summit
of his destiny. And when the
feeble are helped upon its rungs,
they are stimulated and inspired
with new strength at every step
upward

would willingly sacrifice my side
of the issue and grant her the di-
vorce, but before I do I would
like to hear your opinion"
All that can be said in reply is
this; That children should be
placed under the care of people
who are the best fitted by char
acter and moral worth and good
behavior to bring them up.
Blood ties have nothing to do
with the matter.
Paternal or maternal love, as
that word is generally used, has
little to do with the moral aspect
of the case.
Women who gossip, who are
disorderly, who are weak wiIled,
and who allow their children to
see all these traits daily have no
right to bring up their own chill
dren, no matter how they love
them.
Small Part of Parenthood.
Fathers who are living immoral
lives, who are associating with
rough or coarse minded people, or
who use coarse language and who
have never been taught self-con-
troll have no right to associate
with their children, because they
are making an impress on the
wax-like nature of a child-an
impress which will harden with
time and become a blighting
memory and probably a bad
habit.
The time viii come under ~
new science of eugenics WHOA Is
being introduced when a censor
will be appointed to study the do
nestle conditions in every kmily.
and there will be laws w"Nch will
protect children from the influ-
ence of the weak, the disagree
able and the incompe st home
keepers, as we'll as fr~N the bru-
tai and immoral.
Bringing children into the
world is small part of qarent-
hood To the writer of Che let
ter quoted above no counsel can
be given. 1t can only be said
that the man of the best moral
character, the best SAosition
and the best habits has - right
to influence the l,vas of these
children.

No Sight Is So Pitiful.
This is something of supreme

There is no sight in this world
more pitiable than that of fee

achieved all his triumphs; they
only have brought him up from
his original brotherhood with the

of his mind lies the only hope that
he can have of still greater prog

strength of his mentality, and
that the more in proportion as

treatment for the majority of the

Intimate Friends.

The most intimate friends of
family are not capable of saying
where the fault lies in the major
ity OF cases.
Even when a wife seems to be
Indifferent to her family and to
her husband, and even when a
husband seems to be unapprecia-
tive OF his home, there may be
causes for either offense IN
dreamed of by those who believe
themselves to be close friends.
There are men who seem to the
world at large the most perfect
specimens of domestic nobility,
honor and probity. yet who are
impossible as companions and life
comrades for women OF refine
ment and sensitive feeling, and
there are women who pass in the
worlds eyes as angels of good
ness who are possessed of IN
pleasant traits enough to drive
any normal man to drink or in
sanity if he is compelled to live
with them.

TIMELY HINTS
FOR FARMERS
Groom the Work Horse.

Horses at work need careful groom
ing, while the same horses in pasture
do not need such attention. While this
applies to all horses, it is emphatically
necessary in the case of draft horses.
They are fed more or less Of highly
concentrated feed, and their skins must
be kept In condition if they are to retain
their health. This is impossible with
out grooming. The pores Of the skin
become clogged with the dust which
settles Oh the animals while they are
sweating, and If this dust is not re-
moved the tendency will be to a more
or less permanent stOppage of these
pores and the putting of the animal out
Of condition. The work done by the
horse greatly increases the secretions
Of the glands, and the nutritious feeds
which are necessary to the working
horse also have a tendency in the same
direction. If nature is not assisted in
removing the secretions the pores of
the skin will clog and the health of
the horse be injured. The greater the
activity of the skin the greater the ne
cesSity for grooming-KanSas Farmer

Should the SOW carry her pigs be-

growth, and, in some instances, the
teeth will have become discolored to
an extent which has led to the common
saying that pigs born with black teeth
never do Well" These teeth are often
long and sharp, so that when the lit
tie pigs attempt to suck the teeth eX-
tend beyond the tongue and prick the
infiamed and tender udder of the SOW,
giving her great pain. which frequent

least possible factor Milk properly
