his adventures in the country and on
the Friendly Road. These advcn-
lures he has been describing in The
American Magazine. This periodical

subscribers for the best David Gray
son letters, The prize winning let

The following letter, which tells II
wonderful story of mother-love, won
first prize:
'"She was fine old woman, well
past sixty years of age | knew she
had brought up large family OF
sons and daughters. and | was there

MUCH VARIETY IN PROPOSALS
Girls-Study This Matter Before Marrying.

In tho May American Magazine
George Fitch. the famous Illinois hu-
morous writer, begins a new two-part
love story entitled cupid vs, Geogra-
phy"-a humorously alarming proph-
ecy. The scene is laid in Washington
and the principal characters are the
Hon. Morton b. Morgan, rich young
congressman from New York, and
Miss Elsie simmons, the beautiful un-
married daughter of an Ohio con-
gresham. Mr.. Morgan is suing for
Miss simmons hand and the young
lady, who has advanced ideas about
womcn's rights, and so on, insists that
she is going to pick out husband
from the right kind Of ii state. In the
following extract taken from the
story she gives her reasons for turn
ing down a young man from New
York, and one from Delaware, to say
nothing OF several young men from
the south:
Proposing seems to be the chief
occupation here in Washington said
Miss simmons. "A New Jersey young
man proposed to me before I'd been

him in his mosquito bitten state and
should die and leave some helpless
children, he could take all the money

Prevention Of Moth Damage.

The various substances used to keep
away moths, such as tobacco, cam
Thor, napthalene cones or balls. tar
red paper. and cedar chips, have no
effect If the CgGs are already present
in the clothes. EntomoloGists In the
department therefore recommend a
thorough beating, shaking and brush
ing of all articles likely to attract
moths before they are laid away for
the summer The brushing of gar
ments is especially important in order
tc remove eggs which may have es-
capped notice. Ii articles are quite

however, lessons with age, so that the
protection it affords is greatly de
creased after n few years. For this
reason when furs and other valuable
garments are wrapped in tarrod
paper or placed In sacks OF tarred

The Starting PO int

Every woman will unhesitatingly
declare that she would rather die
than 60 insane" Let such women
think soberly on this statement by
c. f. Applegate, of the Iowa state hos
pital for the insane, at Mount Pleas
ant: "Nfost people look upon insanity
as misfortune peculiar and mysler-
ious. Some think of it as a sudden
affliCtion which no one could have
fureseen, due to unknown causes. The
facts seem 20 be known to only few
other than physicians; they should
be known to everybody. The average
person little realizes the danger or
broodng over sights, injuries, disap-
COintmcnts or misfortunes, and yet all
these unwholesome and painful strains
of thought may, if persisted in, and
unrelieved by healthy interests and
activities, tend toward insanity
Probably there are very few indi-
vlduals so perfectly we'll built inside
and out that they are absolutely nor
nal. The average woman, If she Is
disappointed, or suffers from business
or household worries, or is in poor

While walking along the streets Of

dressed woman with patrician face
and stately bearing stopped sud

which she tucked into her hand bag.
She then explained to puzzled

others were rescued uninlured.

are dangerous material for their
nests, as the sharp little bird claws
become tangled in the strings and the
