He Might.

A young man was calling on the
young woman. Before starting out he
had been shaved, massaged and pow
dered. He had plastered his touched
up hair down over his bald spot, and
he had assumed the sort of smile that
his female friends called childish"
when he was in college. His shoes
were shined and so was his nose. And
then he called on the young lady.

evening, Gertrude" he began, and then
he coughed and added in trembling
voice, 81 may call you Gertrude, may
l not?"
"Sure you can," answered the young
girl. 81 allow all of papa's elderly
friends to call me Gertrude. The old.
est of them even calls me Cert. You
may say Cert if you wish. What was
it you wanted to talk about?"
He coughed again and then talked
about how much warmer it was in the

How to Mend Furniture.

Dry rot is very common in old furni--
ture, and sometimes a piece is too good
to throw away. The weak part can be
strengthened in this way: Scrape the
rotten wood from the piece of furni-
ture, then spray the part with coal oil.
Make a mixture of beeswax, melted
rosin and sawdust and fill the holes.
This will harden and make perfect
wood cement. If the wood is dark
mahogany color add some melted seal
ing wax to the mixture; keep it hot
when applying it to the wood. When
vanished it does not show the patch.
When a round break in a chair do
not remove the back or leg Of the
chair, Wherever the damage is done.
Pull the round from the chair repair if
it is possible, then with an auger make
one of the holes half inch deeper.
This will allow the round to slip down
into the deepened hole, afteer which the
opposite end can be lifted in place and
glued.
The piece should lie flat while drying
or the round will slip out Of place.
This saves the trouble of removing
other parts to remedy one small break.

CHILD SUICIDE.

Publicity given to the increas- ing number of child suicides in European countries has led to un- official investigation of the sub feet in America. The last num- ber of the Forum contains table of statistics compiled with view to determining the relative poig- nancy of child 2riefs resulting in suicide. Well to the fore is found the fear of punishment. Some other methods of correc- tion than the tradition-glOrified rod will have to be found, so it seems, as an agency of child training.

CURRENCY REFORM PLANS.

The Republicans wh" are re- tiring from official life at Wash- ington and those who are to re- main. in the minority, are pre- dieting all sorts of trouble for the Democrats in their efforts to revise the currency and enact some law to meet the defects in the present system.
 Admitting the Importance of the question and the difficulties in the way of it's solution, it is certain that the Democrats can do no worse than have the Re- publicans, who have had the ques- ton under consideration since 1896 and have made no progress other than to become hopelessly divided over the merits of the Aldrich plan.
 The Democrats admit. in their platform, that something should be done but they give very little inkling of definite ideas on the subject. They declare against a central bank. At least they are sure of what they do not want to do. They declare for such a systematic revision of our bank ing laws as will render temporary relief in localities where such re- lief is needed, with protection from control or domination by by what known as the money trust"
 The Democratic advantage, to date, is that they are sure of what htey do not want to do on the money question. That is a real advance over the Republican attitude.

Coal Oil Used in Endeayor to Burn

While Horny Schlichting was on his
way home at late hour last night his
attention was attracted by the smell
lof burning oil in the store of John

and several neighbors entered the
iplace and threw burning rags from a
Sdrawer in which they had been place..

The police were notified and they
fstarted an INVESTIGATION. Metcalfe upos
being apprised Of the attempt to burr
the place, made an inventory and stat
ed that some canned goods had beer
taken from the place.
It developed that am attempt hat
been made to burn the store. Th'
would-be incendiary had soaked rag
