The Rev. Mr.. Lawrence had board

family that when he was obliged to
remove to a new field Of labor, the
family keenly felt his loss.
"The best pastor we've ever had in

heartily. "I don't expect to see his
equal again"
Such good company" said Mother
CRANKY; "and so sympathetic IL the

He was always satisfied with what
he had to eat, and he never grum-
bled."

sighed Sister Laura. He brought an
atmosphere Of peace whenever he

Granny CRANKY, in her corner by

as she added her tribute of affection.

mourned. "He was the best hand at

The westerner who complained
that home life has no place in the
large city will profit, as many others
Ike him, by some timely "don'ts" by
an English woman, she says:
Don't be a household martyr.
Some wives are never happy unless
they are miserable: but their hus-
bands don't appreciate this peculiar
trait. The woful smile is most exasp-
Grating.
1T is wrong to think your house
hold gods of more Importance than
Your husbands comfort.
1T is unnecessary to keep the house
so tidy that your husband is afraid to
leave a newspaper lying about. Few
men have such sence of order as most
women have, and they are naturally
more careless at home than at the Of
flee. But what does it matter when
you really come to think of it?
Don't refuse to entertain your hus-
bands friends on the ground that it is
bother. Nothing pains man more
than finding only cold welcome
when he brings home a chum."
She goes on to cite the very we'll
known instances of the woman who
gets angry, because her better half
happens to remark that he never now
tastes cake like mother used to make.
Instead she advises the vile to senn
Tor mothers recipe. Many a wife be-
comes stereotyped because she refuses
TO try new methods.
In fact, for the never-stay- at homes
there are a thousand and one excuses
and sometimes household duties are
a real detriment in the direction IF
enjoying the home. 1t is the little
things all heaped up that eventually
make home desirable or a place to go
to only when there is no other place.
l know a man who actually left
home because of too much order. He
was the most unhappy creature. Every
few weeks his wife would have a

would be upset. How men hate lis
order this woman did not realize. Also

be turned upside down and everything

own except the bills.
There is many woman who does
MT realize her little shortcomings un-
til, from hills, they become
mountains-in fact, veritable volcan
oes. These women overlook the truth
that such home is place.
Where fool and his money are
easily parted; where the family his
tory should be closed book; where
even a henpecked worm will turn;
where, too often words speak louder
than actions; where trouble always
has resting place; where the table
is often the shuttle board where a
nagging woman is like the brook;
where the early bird catches the devil;
where it should be one place that man
may tame his wild cats; where the
walk to the door is paved with good
resolutions
And where a little love now and
then is relished by the best of men,

often no more than drawing room top,
les in which people of all ages join.
Nor is this modern freedom alto
gether a sign of decadence. To some
extent casting off of old restraints
may be regarded as one of the phe-
nomena that accompany the awaken
ing of popular consciousness to the
horror of the social evil and kindred
wrongs. AT least frankness may be
recognized as better than cowardly
evasion. Like all good things, how
ever, there can be too much license,
and the limit has apparently been
reached in some of the fiction of the
day.
While women can do much to dis

Thrifty minds look with disfavor on

buildings and expen-
sive grounds entirely Withdrawn from
use during the summer and out of use
much of the time during the whole

such property cannot be made of more

churches in use but a few hours Of
each week causes the question to be
frequently asked if more use cannot
be made of these beautiful buildings.
They are intended as houses of wor-

A TALK ON WHAT TO EAT
AND WHY TO EAT 4.


Science Is once more wrestling with
the food problem and trying to recon
cile universal diet with the old pro-
verb: "One mans meat is another
mans poison"
What shall we eat?
This question is being asked by mil
lions of people. apd thousands of ex-
perts, real and self-styled, have at
tempted to answer it. Hundreds of
dieteuc systems have been devised.
and each has its enthusiastic adher-
ents. But What is one mans meat
Is another's poison still holds true
Individual differences and peculiari-
ties render even the best of systems
impossible of anything like general
adoption. In the good old days in
America, when our pioneer ancestors
were two-fisted, hard-working men,
the diet question wasn't considered,
except as it concerned ways and means
of getting grub" A healthy life IN
the open enabled them to digest all
most anything.
Today, however, most of the inhab-
itants of our cities are employed in
sedentary pursuits and get compare
lively little exercise and fresh air,
with the result that they are unable
to preserve their health under the re-
gimen of their fathers. Their digestive
organs refuse to perform their func-
tions, the food ferments and the sys-
tenn is filled with poisons.
Dyspepsia, anemia and neurasthe-
MIA follow as the logical results of dis
ordered digestion and faulty nutrition
This condition has given rise to the
charge that Americans are a race Of
gluttons. 1t is alleged that they eat
too much and that the remedy is a
reduction in the amount of food ta-
ken. Some experts. even go so far
as to urge frequent and long -contin-
ued periods OF fasting. Says one pop
ular science expert and physical cul-
| ture trainer:
1.-THE dyspeptie. anemic. neurasthe-
mic type of people. who are becoming
so common. are. in my opinion, slowly
starving to death. A reduction in the
amount of food may give temporary
relief from their systems by lessening

The remedy for this class of people Is
not less food. but more-providec
they take sufficient exercise in thf
open air to bring about more per
| feet assimilation OF food. Plenty o
physical exercise or work and fresf
air will work wonders for them. An
other important point lis to rest a
least half an hour after eating. Suffi
cient sleep is also absolutely neces
sary.

plan. Yet a move
tc that effect is underway and the
news explains why the direct primary
law has been so bombarded by tory
newspapers during the past few
weeks. After pulling off campaign
of made to order criticism the re-
actionaries now unfold their purpose
1t is to scuttle the primary and re-
turn to the convention system
Significant in connection with the
move is the declaration of DR.. Witty
combe, republican candidate for gov
ernor, that he still favors the assem-
ply plan. Such being the case it may
be presumed the republican nominee
will favor the adoption of the bill
proposed. All the tories will support
the bill If they think it has chance.
Ii they don't support the measure it
will be purely because they are afraid
TO do so.
Old guard politicians have never
liked the direct primary. 1t curbs
their power too much and gives the
people too much authority. More
than that the direct primary is dis
liked by certain Captains OF Indus

hand hold on politics. They can
more easily keep such a grasp under

don't like Il bit and they will put
up money any time TO have the prim-

The situation is such that friends of
the direct primary will do well to be
