A Good Wife.

A good wife is to man wis
dom, strength and courage; a
bad one is confusion, weakness
and despair. No condition is
hopeless to a man whose wife
possesses frmness, decision and
economy. There is no outward
property which can counterfeit
Incidence. extravaganza and fol-
ly at home. No spirit can long
endure by influence. Man is
strong but bis head is not ad-
amant. He needs a tranquil
mind, especially if he is an in
telligent man with a whole head.
He needs a moral force in the
conflicts of life. To recover his
composure, home should be a place
of peace and comfort. There his
soul renews its strength and goes
forth with renewed vigor to en-
counter the labors and troubles
of life. But if at home he finds
no rest and encounters bad temp
e.. jealousy ard gloom, hope
vanishes and he sinks into de-
spair.

Charlie met his friend James

had been fishing. How many
fish did you catch?," asked
James. Charlie replied: IF to
the number of books of the Old
Testament you add the number
of the books in the New Tesla
ment, multiply that by the num-
Der of Apostlesssthat were pres
ent at the TRANSPORTATION, divld-
ed by the number of books writ
ten by Luke, subtract the times
the Isrealites marched around
Jericho, multiply by the number
of pieces Of silver Judas received
for betraying Christ, divide by
the number of spies Moses sent
into Canaan, add the number of
letters in the name of the city.
in which a man climbed up a
tree to see Christ, divide by the
number of Apostles that were
callad the sons of Thunder. The
answer will be the number of

The Boys Corn club movement is

The Corn club boys, several thousand

than enthusiasm are the results that
have come from the work.
When the state champions met in
Washington this winter with the ex-
perts who had charge of the work in
the various states. there was naturally
feeling of intense rivalry. Twelve of
the southern states that had been push
ing the Boys Corn club idea for sew
eral years. had records of 442 boys that
had grown over 100 bushels on an acre.
Alabama and Georgia each had over
100 boys with this record to their cred
it. but both of these states had been
organized for club work for the past
eight years. 1t is very gratifying to be
able to write that Kentucky, with an
organization of only two years, made a
splendid record. Fifty-seven boys in
Kentucky this past season grew over
100 bushels Of corn to the acre. How
many adult farmers did that well?

eminent would be respected and
that Madero would be saved
from execution, Therefore it
was with a shock that the news
was received that Madero and
his deposed vice president were
shot and killed while supposedly
under the protection of Huerta's
troops and while being trans
ferred from the palace to the
penitentiary ''for safe keeping"
The assurance given by Huer-

ton of a prearranged plan, of
which Huerta was entirely cog
infant.
However, it is not the purpose
of President Taft to permit the
assassination of Madero and Sau-
rez to be made a casus belli with
Mexico or to be used as a pre-
text for an armed invasion Of
that country. Nevertheless, the
defiant disregard Of the admins
tration's request that Madero be
treated in a civilizedway is mere
ly an addition to the long list of
grievances the United States
will remember and which ulti-
mately will have to be accounted
for.
The administration takes the
position that it is not up to the
United States to protect citizens
of the overthrown regime
against the cruel and semi-civil-
lied vengeance of their conquer
ers, much as they deplore this
dictatorial and medieval mode of
retaliation.
