Well. what of that? There are a

We never saw a woman sit on a dry
goods box and surround herself with
filthy pools of extract of tobacco

saw n go fishing with a bottle of

damp ground and go home drunk at
night. We never saw a woman yank
on her coat, give her pants a hitch,
spit on her hands and veal she
could whip the biggest man in town.
Come to think of it, there are a good

do. and don't want to, either.

maiden whispers that she will scream
If oseulatory overtures r not forth

be deemed real or pretended? And
should there not be some statute of
limitations that would prevent a
kissed person setting up 2 belated
claim that there had been IAN Illegal
infringement of privilege" as the
careless translator sets forth the
courts holding. when the raising of
Euch claim may have been due to sub
sequent disappointments?
The court Is vague in its definition
of kiss as IAN operation performed

cism of the suggestion Of surgery in
the definition, is not the spot kissed
a material issue? In a recent DAM
age suit at Brookfeld, Mo-, when a
maiden was kissed above the right
the jury returned a verdict for
the defendant. A kiss on the neck
might have resulted in a different
verdict. An ecclesiastical court in
New York has recently held that the
kissing OF divers women. on fore
head, hair and even the lips, merely
constituted 'imprudent conduct"
There should be an international con-
gress to draw uniform rules on this
subject of vast Importance. The I'M
perial Supreme Court of Leipsic made
a lamentable failure in its lone effort
to definitively settle the matter.

THE ..THIRTEENs" OF LIFE.

Judge Rentoul of the city of Lon
don court has discovered thirteen
mistakes of life. Here they are:
To attempt to set up your own
standard of right and wrong and ex-
pect everybody to conform to 1t.
To try to measure the enjoyment
of others by your own.
To expect uniformity of opinions in
this world.
To look for Judgment and exper-
fence in youth.
To endeavor 10 mould all DISPOSE
tions alike.
Not to yield in unimportant tri1es.
To look for perfection in your own
actions.
To worry ourselves and others
about what cannot be remedied.
Not to help everybody. wherever,
however and whenever you can.
To consider anything impossible
that We cannot ourselves perform.
To believe only what our finite
minds can grasp.
Not to make allowances for the
weaknesses of others.
To estimate people by some out
side quality for it is that within
which makes the man.
Judge Thomts C. T. Train of the
New York court of general sessions
gives thirteen rules of life" to off
set the thirteen mistakes of life"
enumerated by Judge Rentoul of the
London court. Here they are:
Keep your head at all times.
Trust yourself above everyone
else.
Do not deal in lies.
Do not give way to hating, eve
though you are hated.
DO not look too good.
Do o talk too wise.
Talk with the crowds, but keep
your virtue.
Walk with kings if you will, but do
not lose sight of the common people.
Live every day so that neither your
foes nor your friends a hurt You.
Let all men. count with you. but
none too much.
Make allowances for all doubts.
Fill every minute with sixty Sec
ends of work.
Be a man.

Be a man.

The state of Idaho showed the lar
gest increase in the value Of its crops
in 1909 as compared with the year
1899, of any state in the union, ac-
cording to the census of agriculture
in 1910, which recently has been
issued by Director William ]. Harris,
bureau of census, department of COM
merce. The crops of Idaho In 1909
increased in value 270.7 per cent over
their value in 1899. The state OF
Washington ranks second with a per-
centage of increase in value of 1854
per cent; North Dakota was third.
with a percentage of 234.3; Wyoming
fourth, with 219.S per cent; Okla
bona, fifth, with 205 per cent; and
Colorado. sixth, with 1904 per cent.
Five other states showed gains Of
$50 to 200 per cent in value, namely,
New Mexico. 1912; South Dakota,
1S4.1; Montana, 1913; Florida,
1918; and Georgia. 1924.
Eight other states showed gains OF
100 to $50 ptr cent in value, namely,
South Carolina, 141.1; Oregon,
124.9; Utah, 124.2; Arizona. 1873;
Nebraska. 1921; North Carolina,
1882; Nevada. 1851; Arkansas.

was s3 per cent, while that of the
state of Illinois. which led all other

RAILROADS ARE NOT
THE REAL SUFFERERS.

Any incident or any law which
tends to injure a railroad or lessen
its profits is welcomed by some peo-
pie. on the theory that it merely will
reduce the unearned and ill-gotten
increment of a few bloted and con-
.scienceless capitalists. Such people
might be interested, and probably
surprised, at a report recently COM
piled by the Pennsylvania railroad.
This report shows that there are ex-
actly S9,602 stockholders who own
the road. and that of this number
43,15S-almost half of the total
are m In thousands Of cases
these stockholders, both men and
wome1, rely on the returns from
their stock for a large part, or all, of
their income. Frequently, the stock
represents the savings of years, or a
lifetime, and is the chief reliance of
aged couples or spinsters who no
longer are capable of earning their
way in the world. II is these peo-
pie. and not the few wealthy mag
mates, who must acutely feel attacks
on the railroads. 1t might be urged
that the old widow and orphans
plea has been overdone by the rail-
roads. but this cannot refute plain
figures nor controvert the fact that a
great army of honest people in this
country are dependent upon them for
support.-San Francisco Chronical.

HAPPINESS IN MARRIAGE.

Thomas Jefferson wrote the follow
Ing excellent advice. There is a great
deal of human nature and good sense
in 1t:
Harmony in the married state is
the first thing to be arrived at.
Nothing can preserve the affections
uninterrupted but a firm resolution
never to differ in will, and a deter
mination In each to consider the love
of the other of more value than any
object whatever in which the wish
had been fixed. How light, in fact,
is the sacrifice of any other wish
when weighed against the affections
of one with whom we are to pass u
whole life. And no opposition in a
single instance will hardly in itself
produce alienation, yet every one has
his pouch into which all these little
o%ppositions are put. and while this is
filling, the alienation is insensibly
going on, and when filled it is COM
Llete. 1t would puzzle either to say
why, because no one difference of
opinion has been marked enough to
produce a serious effect by itself.
But he or she finds his or her affec-
tions wearied out by a constant
stream OF little checks and obstacles.
Other sources of discomfort, very
common. indeed, are the little cross
purposes of husband and wife In
common conversation; a disposition
In either to criticise and question
whatever the other says; a desire al
ways to demonstrate and make him
feel himself in the wrong, especially
in sympathy. Nothing Is SO goadlng
on the part of either. Much better.
therefore, II our companion views a
thing In a light different from what
We do, to leave him in quiet posses
sion of his view. What is the use of
rectifying him IL the thing be unim.
portant? and II important, let 1t pass
for the present, and wait for a softer
moment and more ~conciliatory occa-
sion of revising the subject together.
1t is wonderful how many persons are
rendered unhappy by ~inattention to
these rules of prudence"

COURT RULING ON KISSING.

The Imperial Supreme Court of
Leapsc has attempted to describe
the nature and status of a kiss dis
tinguishing 1t from an assault. The
court has been praised for the great
precision of the definition, but we
can not share the general enthusiasm
To the general doctrine that the OPP
Grafton requires under all cireum-
stances the recipients sanction, ex-
pressed or implied, we may cheer
fully subscribe. The court holds that
the operation may be lawfully per-
formed without express sanction
when the operator a be reasonably
sure of the recipients silent consent,
the court citing by way of concrete
illustration the case of relatives,
parents, children, lovers and such
like" This Is vague. indefinite and
uncertain. The degree of consangu-
Unity should have been stated as to
relatives. The age of children and
their relation to the operator should
have been defined. There Is even un-
certainty as to the meaning OF lovers,
the question OF reciprocal announces
ment naturally arising. And such
like opens too wide a door. There
should be some limitation on kissing
in the family even. many conditions
of drink and food, length OF beard
and other material considerations en-.
