E NJ. Wagner, proprietor of the
25O0-acre black cattle ranch, believes
in diversified farming in western
Kansas, and in fact Mr.. Wagner has
always been for diversified agricul-
ture in western Kansas and is one of
our successful pioneer settlers, farm
ers and cattle Taisers, being noted
for his prize winning cattle as far
east as New York City. Photographs
of the proprietor, his ranch and the
prize-winning cattle can be seen
hanging in hundreds of noted banks
and stock establishments all over the
Union and some in foreign studios,
of which the entire population of
Ellis and Trego counties are indeed
proud. Mr.. Wagner has been an
ton that gasoline power was bound
to work in and among the rural
districts of America. He has been
very careful and conservative in
forming his ideas and judging the all
around qualities of a gas tractor for
farm use. During one of his Royal
Stock show trips in the interest of
the Galloway herds, in October 1912,
Mr.. Wagner spent good deal of
Americas best engineers as well as
many interested parties) running
down the facts of high grade farm
tractor of every type, of all sizes,
everything considered. And in anoth-
er one of his trips, in December, 1912,
found the Rumley Gas Pull the most
reliable performer under all condi-
tions for farm use. Mr.. Wagner
came to Ellis today where w. A.
Eppler, at the Blue Front Imple-
ment House. unloaded one of the
Rumley 1870 gas pull tractors for
him, and he and his son, Grant,
rolled her out at a 3 - mile per hour
gait. They intend to do their plow-
ing, threshing and delivering their
grain to market with this engine,
and in fact everything in the power
line pertaining to successful farming
except to round up the Galloway
cattle herd, and Grant says in a pinch
he will be tempted to try little mill
crop Of them. Now this is power to
put in your crops quickly; power that
is not subject to disease; power that
will not be overcome by heat; power
that will harvest 100 acres per day;
power that will pillow early and reduce
the weed crop, and its the uni
versal engine for the farm, the
banner engine of the world and, like
out Mitchell wagon we have now got
her to stay. See Mr.. Wagoner's and
then come in and buy one.-W. A.
Eppler, at the Blue Front Imple-
ment house.

The Equal Standard
Bv VIRGINIA TERHUNE VAN DE WATER

He had the grace to blush as he thus
revealed his ideas, and yet l knew that
he spoke truth that lies at the bottom
of many a mans heart Men pity the
fallen woman in the abstract, they con-
denim women who are hard upon her
they give money to houses of refuge
and to Magdalene homes-and one would
think them the soul of pity-until u
woman belonging to them falls. Then
the whole matter changes
1t is not fair, nevertheless. ! am told
that it is impossible for a man to rise
above this inherited feeling-yet there
are men who have done So One, a
plain farmer, learned that his girI-wife
"a pretty, foolish creature-had gone
away with a handsome city rascal, and
he tried to harden his heart against
her. Yet when, a week later, she came
to her senses and returned, pale and
instrumentation, and, paraphrasing
the prodigals prayer. pleaded: Il am
no more worthy TO be called your wife:
let me be your servant" he lifted her
from her knees to his breast and said,
Il have been waiting for you. little girl
You have had wild, bad dream, but
it is all over"
A woman to whom | told this story
shrugged her shoulders What pu-
sillanimous fellow he must be-" she ex-
claimed. Such an action was certainly
not like a manly man"
No, it was more like God wasn't it?
This woman's censure reminded me that
the men are not the only persons who
do not live up TO a belief in an equal
standard. And until we women live
up to it, we can not blame men for
cOndemning our sex when we forget
our womanhood. 1t is with women that
the reform must begin The mother
must train her boys to believe in this
equal standard. to say, as does one
mother: IF you want your wife 10 be
a good, pure woman, make yourself the
kind of man that good, pure woman
should marry"
Let us carry the principle further still.
Let us not condemn the woman who,
in girlhood, made a false step and has
repented of her sin in bitterness and
anguish, and yet receive into our homes
the man who, we are told is a clever
chap-"a little irregular in affairs with
women. but, nevertheless. a charming
man to meet socially" We need not
treat the man with an lam holier-
than-thou" attitude, but how dare we be
guilty of the hypocrisy of receiving him
and yet feeling that the woman is not
just the person whom we care to know.
That is, to my way Of thinking, one of
the sins Of society. Either we must
pardon neither the man nor the woman
or we must accept both.
Yet l know a professional man whose
irregularities" are acknowledged. and,
because of his social prominence, for
given. When all the world knew of his
crop of wild oats, his wife one day
sowed a little plot of this kind Of grain
in one corner OF her life--partly, per-
haps, through unhappiness, partly
through pique. Her husband has Sc
cured a divorce from her And at a
luncheon last winter l saw a puritanical
matron raise her brows when this wife's
name was mentioned.
Il once knew her." she said gravely.
Il want now TO forget the fact"
Much is said of the Equal Standard.

TRUE STORY OF NAP oLEoNs EARLY DAYS.

| IT was during the time Of the great
| Revolution, a cold November day in
- Provence.
| In the little town OF Antilles there
was a general panic The people were
running about pale and excited, for news
Of a dreadful massacre had come from
| the capital of France.
! A great crowd had gathered around
/ the Mayor, who was talking to an ugly
| looking fellow in ragged clothes. His
| face and hands were covered with dirt.
1T is as I say" he cried "To-mor-
row France will he a shambles and now
/ is the time to make your choice, king
dom or republic"
But we are all faithful Royalists. -
said the Mayor, whose good-natured
face looked worried.
| 'Royalists!" shouted the tramp. ITO
hell with the rabble that sucks the mar
row out of the bones Of the people,"
A young man with an unusually open
and intelligent face made his way

You are trying to arouse hatred and
we have no use for people like you in

Then. turning to his fellow citizens, he
added: Let that man be alone with

Jean Poitou's calm words impressed
the others. 4 few moments later the

| knew she was not for them, for the
| gardeners beautiful daughter had given
her heart to Jean Poitou, the young
| lawyer
one night about a week after the first
| rumors OF massacres in Paris had
| reached Antilles, Lolette was lying in
| her bed thinking Of Jean, when she
! heard shots outside.
She rushed to the window and the
sight which met her eyes made her

men with red caps went through the

clenched her fists with indignation when
she saw how the revolutionsts burned
and sacked her beautiful town.
At this moment she heard the front
door below give way to heavy blows and
