While an East side matrOn was bus iIv preparing to go to the theater the other afternoon, d gOssipy neighbor came to the front door. The woman stopped in the middle of the process of putting on her best shoes and talked to the neighbor for some time. When the neighbor left she looked at the clock and saw she would have to hurry So she hastily finished dress ing and made dash for the car.
 She noticed a young man watched her all the way downtown She searched her coat thoroughly for stray rateIine. but found none
 After attending the theater she boarded ear and still noticed that she attracted attention She followed one eirl. eye and saw that t centered on the bottom Of her dress. Looking to discover the cause she found that in her haste she had only changed one of her shoes and on her left she wore Q patent kid shoe. while on the other there was a gunmetal calf shoe In diauapolis News.

Say. ain't it funny what lot of things
 men overlook. They seem to feel we women never do
 thing but cook. They really think they run the house
 and everything that's In It. But gee! they couldn't get along with
 out us for minute. We women are the ones who keep the
 woodwork shining bright Who buy enamel for the bath to make
 it glistening white We women varnish tables and we buy
 the stains for chairs, And we buy the proper colors to
 brighten up the stairs. We women are the ones who say what
 paint goes on the halls Which shades for parlor and for den
 for baseboards and for walls. We women stain and wax the floors,
 or else we make the man. We women are the ones who keep the

DOES II PAY?

Does it pay to have fifty work ing men poor and ragged in or der to have one saloon-keeper dressed in broadcloth and flush of money?
 Does it pay to hang one citizen becansc another got him drunk /?
 Does it pay to have a dozen in- telligent young men turned into thieves and vagabonds that one may get a living selling rum?
 Does it pay to have a hundred homes blasted, ruined. defled, turned into a hell of smisery. strife and want, that some wholesale liquor seller may build up a large fortune?
 Does it pay to have hundreds of thousanes of men and women in the alms-house, penetentiaries and hospitals, and thousands more in asylums for the insane and idiotic, that a few capitalists of the whiskey ring may profit?

PIPES MUST BE KEPT CLEAN
Pure Water Impossible Unless All Sources From Which It Is Drawn
 Are Immaculate.

It is not sufficient to purify the water We drink at its source. Unless the pipes through which it is car ried are thoroughly cleansed there will still remain serious danger of typhoid and other water-borne dis eases.
 Mains through which polluted wa ter has flowed become coated with deposits which must be wholly re- moved before they can be regarded as safe carriers for pure water. Un- less the pipes are thoroughly cleansed by some mechanical method 1t will be years before the danger of con- tamination resulting from the pre- viously foul water supply will be en- tirely eliminated
 This fact doubtless explains some of the outbreaks of typhoid which occur even after filtration plants are installed. These outbreaks in most cases are probably not due to imper- feet operation of the filters, but to the stirring up of old deposits in the mains.
 A slight increase in the rate of flow through water mains will start these old deposits and destroy the whoIesomcness of the most carefully filtered water.

ANCIENT SPORT OF COURslNG

Greek and Latin authors re. :. to the sport of coursing. but du~.- tay middle ages il Was little heard of. The first sci of rules drawn up to govern the sport and for determining the merits of Il course was placed an record bv Thomas, duke of Norfolk, in the rof Elizabeth of England. There was generally private coursing at that time. The oldest coursing club is that at SWaIIham in Norfolk, and Il was established in 1,66 by Lord Orford. In 1880 the Ashdown Park club was established. During the next seventy years many clubs or societies sprang up throughout Eng land, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, the Altcar club being formed in 1895. The Waterloo cup is run at the Altcar meeting every spring This famous gathering takes place on the earl of SettOn'S estate close to Liverpool. II has for years been rec ognized as the leading affair of its kind. Only in South Africa is a Waterloo run off on antelopes, the reason being that the African hare will not stand up before d brace of ,rro vbonpJ-

HEAVEN, HOME AND MOTHER

Dr. Anna Howard Shaw not long ago. in a fit of irony, de- clared that women who opposed suffrage were representatives of heaven, home and mother.
 She did not literally mean this: She meant possibly the reverse. It was an expression of sarcasm sadly misplaced.
 Dr. Shaw has always been con- sidered d very tactful and con- servative woman, She has been looked upon as one of the diplo- mats of the National Woman's Suffrage Association. It is not surprising, now, that her weapon has been turned against her.
 The National Association Op- posed to Woman's Suffrage of h. diana at its last regular meeting discussed the question of a na- tional slogan. The phrase of pr. Shaw was proposed and adopted without a dissenting vote.
 Dr. Shaw voiced a beautiful thought. In the mind of man, heaven, home and mother are so sacredly associated with all that is beautiful in the world. The opponents to suffrage have SC lected a slogan which will go down to posterity. Dr. Shaw, when she in spirit of bitterness sought to burn the women op- posed to her cherished cause with sarcasm, had no idea that her little irony would be given ac- cepted recognition by the very ones she had made the victims of her attack.
 Heaven, home and mother. Each of the three words can at any time be used as a text of a moving sermon. To each is at tached a galaxy of ten d e r thoughts.
 Had the slogan originated with the anti-suffragists its implied charge. that suffragists are op- posed to these three sacred in- stitutions, would have undoubt- edly been bounced upon by the eager and aggressive defenders of the cause. Under the circum- stances, however, it seems prob able that they will find it expe- dient.to say nothing.
 It would not be exactly fair to pr. Shaw to intimate or charge that she deliberately planned to cast reflections upon heaven, home or mother. The phrase no doubt struck her as a good de- scription of the old fashioned wo- man who found her time suffic- iently occupied with the prob lems of religion, home making and motherhood to give no atten- tion to vote claiming.
 The antisuffragists should be srateful to the high priestess of suffrgism for furnishing a slogan so beautiful and so appealing to those who love heaven, home and mother. Commercial Appeal.
