How One Vote Saved a President

* Wonders of the Heavens e =

liquefy more than a million mil
lion tons of solid IRON
The result would be a very big
and very deep hole in the earth.
Thousands OF square miles would
be more or less directly affected
by the terrific impact, for the
shock would be greater than that
of the mightiest earthquake, and
perhaps would tumble into ruin
and mountains would shake off
their fringes of rock in all parts
OF the globe, while the sea would
hurl itself in whelming tidal
waves upon etery coast and
drown all the low-lying islands.
A Great Heat.
The atmospheric disturbances
would also be enormous. The
sudden development OF great heat
at the point OF collision would
unbalance the air currents, and
destructive and capricious winds
would blow to and fro over the
earth.
We have only a little space left
to consider the effects OF COLI
sion between the earth and the
tail of a comet. This is something
that has actually occurred two or
three times within a century.
The comet Of 1861 enveloped
the earth with the spreading end
OF its tail for a few hours. and
IN 1910 Halley's comet brushed
its tail over the earth, but APP
parently the electric repulsion de-
veloped prevented the gases Of
the tail from entering the atmos-
phere. II is possible that in every
case this would occur, so that
electricity may be our effective
guardian against deleterious sub
stances that might otherwise be
introduced into the atmosphere
from the switching tails OF close
passing comets.

Go Out on Strike, Mad

Rudely Awaken.

To this woman l say also: Go
out on strike, madam. Don't do
another lick Of work. Don't turn
another domestic wheel until you
force fair settlement out of your
husband. Just one day of the
confusion worse COMPOUNDED of a
home in which nobody has wash

the floors or provided any food
or done any OF the other millions
OF things that a housewife at

a husband that the laborer is

So ] repeat again that there IL
no reason for a woman to be a
domestic martyr unless she really
enjoys martyrdom. You can
bring any man to terms by inter

Men of Family Expect
Elaborate Menus on

Furthermore, the wage earners
of the family have figured down
her housekeeping expenses to the
last possible penny, and she is
not given one cent more than the
actual cost of food and fuel and
rent on which to run the place.
And. as if this wasn't enough
tyranny and stinginess, they COM
plain bitterly when she doesn't set
a tenderloin steak table on stew

forthcoming the girl is blamed
for not making one dollar do the
work of five.
Nothing could be grayer or
more forlorn than this little

prospect of improvement. She

Besides which Cinderella in the
kitchen hasn't got as good a
chance as the wicked sister in
the parlor, no matter what the
fairy tales say. So all that this
girl sees in the way of a future is
shaving FOR her family until her
brothers and sisters get married

go and be a dependent on some

She's a domestic martyr IL

TIME grotesquely tragic thing
about martyrdom is that it
is almost always entirely
unnecessary. The martyr need not
be a martyr if he or she had an
inch of backbone, or thimole-
full of good, hard horse sense,
This is particularly true of the
domestic martyr who Is not a PIN
feathered angel, as she is painted
but just a plain goose.
The thing that calls forth the
above heartfelt words is the case
Of young friend of mine. This
girl is the oldest of large fam
ily, and when her mother dled
four years ago, she became the
little house mother to the family.
She was only 16 then. she IS
but 20 now, at the very age
when a girl should be most care
free and happy, for these few
years are the playtime in the
average woman's life, and the
only playtime she ever knows.
Instead of that, this girl has
cooked. and cleaned. and washed,
and mended, and sewed for her
father and four husky brothers
and a little sister only a year
younger than herself. She is the
most Industrious little creature
in the world, and the best man
ager and a real genius in one OF
the finest of the arts-cooking,
The father, the four big broth
ers and the sister all go out to
work and earn good salaries, but
the girl who stays at home and
slaves from morning till night to
make the balance of them COM
Portable and give them just the
sort of things they want TO eat,
is paid not one cent for her labor.

WHITEHILL GONE
Proprietor Of Standard Creamery
Leaves Many Mourning Credit
Ors Behind.

When the Standard Creamery
opened for business last Wednesday
morning, C. e. Whitehill, the pro-
prietor was not present. A little
later a letter to w. J. Hastie, who
was in his employ was found, stating
that he had left and was ready to
turn over everything left behind for
the benefit Of his creditors. His
whereabouts are not definitely known
but it is believed he can be found if
advisable.
If rumors are correct he evidently
planned this getaway for some time.
An attempt was made to put an at
tachment on his bank account and
it was found he had only SO to his
credit and had not made any deposits
for some time. During this time he
had been having his checks cashed
at another bank and it is supposed,
put the money in his pocket.
1t is supposed he left unpaid bills
of about $4,000, large portion of
which is due farmers who had sold
him milk and cream. An applica-
tion has been made for the appoint
ment of a receiver to take charge of
property here and an attempt will be
made to effect a settlement with the
creditors.
This is the second creamery to fail
in business here within a few weeks
and it has given that kind of business
a black eye.
