HUSBAND HAS Right
TO PEACE IN HOME
Make Him Forget Cares Of
the Day

How much do you consider your
husbands right to peace in his house
says a writer in an exchange who de-
| livers short talk to wives. How ia,
do you comprehend the fact that he
works all day in possibly uncongenial
surroundings, that business cares
weigh heavily upon him, that his life
is constant struggle to hold his own
2gainst more or less hostile forces
that he carries burden in the work
he does and in the responsibility OF
supporting his home?
How do you plan to secure him freo-
dom from worry when he returns 10
that home? Does he feel when he en-
ters his front door that the cares
which infest the day fall from him and
he enters an atmosphere of love and
understanding and tranquility? If this
has not occurred to you before, stoo
and see if you don't think that such d
reception may possibly be among
your husbands wants.
You have been working hard all day,
too? OF course you have. And if your
husband is of the kind who comes
home bringing his business cares with
him and entertains you through din
ner and the evening by accounts OF
how Jones did" him in a deal, how
the head office boy was saucy and had
to be discharged and how the porter
does not keep the sidewalk clean. and
how the stenographer made two mis-
takes in spelling, and if he does that
Gu an average OF six nights week
don't you sometimes feel that after a
hard day of house work you might
have a little change of view in tn
evening ard hear something to tahe
your mind from troubles into a more
cheerful groove?
Just turn the tables mentally and
see what the reverse looks like. Even
If you cherish the conviction that YOU
90 as much work as your husband and
get far more tired than ne does, don't
you wish him to feel that home Is In
reality the sweet and restful spot it H.
In theory? When he married didn't he
expect that, and didn't you encourage
him TO expect it, and hasn't he right
to look for II now?

BILLY CLIFFORD COMPANY
OPERA HOUSE TONIGHT

The Columbus Inquirer-Sun has the
following to say about the company,
The Girl, The Man and The Came:
"One of the most pleasing and en-
joyable attractions of the week at the
Springer Opera House was The Girl,
The Man and The Game, as pre-
scented yesterday matinee and night,
by Mr.. Clifford and his very ca
pable company. In presenting this
play Mr.. Clifford, who is one of the
cleverest of comedians, makes no at
tempt whatever to be serious, his sole
desire being to make people laugh
and to provide entertainment of 4
light character, at the same time free
from anything that would offend-be,
ing clean and wholesome.
1.-The Girl, the Man and the Game,
is rollicking sort of production,
having quite clever plot, and intec-
spersed with good singing of catchy
songs. Mr. Clifford was in Columbus
about half dozen years ago in The
JLl lily Baron" and made a hit with it,
his friends made then were glad to
see him again, and they were very
much pleased with the excellent en-
trtainment he gave them.
"Mr. Clifford is a comedian of real
ability; it is no strain for him to De
funny, as was evidenced yesterday
matinee and night, when he appeared
in the role of Jolly good fellow,
seeking to obtain money from his
grouchy old uncle under false prefer
ses, which he succeeds in doing, but
the disclosures are attended by manv
amusing situations"
This is the last big musical comedy
of the season and no doubt large and
fashionable audience will see this
splendid attraction.-Advt.

a play by E. S. Sheldon, which run

THE CALL Of
BASE BALL IS
SOON TO COME
SCHOOL BOYS INTERESTED
Small Athletic Exercise For
Something Better

Soon the call of baseball will be
heard at the High School here. AL
ready the warm and pleasant days are
infusing the infection of the national
game into the veins of the lusty
youngsters.
AS there has been comparatively lit
tie basket ball activity among High
school students during the winter on
account of unfavorable conditions in
the need of basket ball court, the
boys are all the more eager to get in,
to baseball as soon as the season fav-
ors. The local High chool will soon
get under way, probably about the
same time that the local Empire State
league team gets into practice, this
team is formed
The High School team was a good
one last season. Though Monahan.
the star backstopper, is not in school,
it is hoped that a suitable successor
will be developed to take care of this
part of the work. Courtney, who twirl-
ed star ball last season, will likely be
ON the mound for the His part OF
the time anyway, though there are
other candidates for pitching honors

Jail Service Didn't Pay Fine.

Fort Dodge Messenger: A novel
point in law came up this term of
court which got the attorneys to
looking through their law books.
A man was arrested on a certain
charge, convicted and sentenced to
spend sixty days in the county Jail.
He also was. fined $100. Instead of
paying his fine, he remained in Jail
thirty days more so he could get out,
as he thought, without paying over
any money.
This man was mistaken, however,
for when he came to sell some prop
erty he had here, he learned that
the $1OO fine unpaid acted as lien
against his property which would
have to be satisfied. 1t was explain
ed that he remained the thirty addi-
tional days in Jail in order to secure
his release, but that did not release
him from the necessity of paying the
fine.

HORSE THIEVES
IN BOONE COUNTY
Suspected That an Organized Gang
Has Headquarters Some
where in County. --.

Boone News-Republican: Strange
stories have been floating about the
city recently, especially during the
past three days, since 1t became
known that an officer from Marshall
town was in the city and had with
him a chart or map which showed
that gang of horse thieves had a
plant in this county and they
brought their plunder here.
1t will be recalled that horse
was stolen from Marshalltown, but
later found. 1t was claimed that the
man who did the stealing in his
hurry to get away, dropped piece
of paper on which was traced the
route to Boone county and then to
the stronghold of the robbers, where
they had hidden their ill-gained
wealth. The man thought the thing
enough to investigate,
hence made a trip to this city.
One man locally claims to have
seen the chart and to have learned
from the Marshalltown visitor the
exact location of the plant.

Master VIM. Plumb, nephew of
Mr.. and Mrs. w. j. Hubacher, with
whom he has made his home -
past few years, was taken to Roch-
ester, Mimi, some time ago and un-
derwent a serious operation. Master
William broke his left limb several
years ago and the bone has never
knitted properly. though it has been
broken and reset several times. The
Mayo brothers have attempted to
take a piece of the bone from above
the original break and insert 1t in
the lower part Of the limb. At pres
ent everything seems to be doing
nicely, though the success of the op-
Grafton cannot be determined until
the limb is removed from the cast in
which it has been placed.

production.
Iowa soil has shown it's ability to
withstand drouth far better than
those of her neighboring states, but
the soil is seldom called upon to pro-
duce a crop without sufficient
amount of moisture to bring the crop
through. The annual normal pre-
cipitation in Iowa is 31.45 inches.
The diversity of crops grown here
is so great that in no season can all
of the crops fail and there is al
ways something growing in Iowa.
