On Beinu Natural.

The world has established certain
standards of etiquette for those who
would be recognized as we'll bred and
cultured. The earlier in life these
standards are adopted the better for
the woman Fortunate indeed is she
who has cultivated early in life soft
voice, poise, grace Of carriage and the
pretty" way CT doing things. She
need have NO fear that in moment
Of excitement she will forget herself
and be guilty of a raux pas.
Absolutely destructive of natural
ness in manner is self-consciousness.
This affection amounts at times al
most to an obsession. 1t causes wom-
en- to shout who wish to speak low; it
leads often to an assumption of
bravado, causing criticism that may
be unjust, but is invited and unavoid-
able.
It IS a gentle art, the art Of being
natural; one that is essential to every
woman, who wishes to be regarded as
interesting, attractive and popular.
No woman with an ounce Of brains
will allow herself to become the vic
tim Of affectation if she would get the
most that is possible out Of life.

Teddy was waif, an orphan who had
linlped into Taunton just after the
wedding, ragged, hungry, with no past
worth remembering, and no friends.
The forlorn little tramp had come
asking for food at the door. He had
been welcome to it-and more. He
was bright, accommodating, grateful.
They had practically adopted him, had
dressed him, had sent him to school,
and his laughing ways had made him
quite an institution in the little home.
"You must try and keep him with
YOU, John. We should miss him dread
fully in the better days to come, ii
we sent him away now. There he is
now" and the gay ringing voice OF
their protege echoed outside, haillng
some playmates.

was calling out.

sponse. "Such a clown-ard, say, the

It was decided that Rhoda should
leave three days later. The decision
got about the town, and Ted heard
eff it at school. He came home cry
ing. and Rhoda had to tell him the
whole story.

1T is the only way, John, dear, and
you must not rebel. Only four months
why, it will pass before we know
it,"
The man addressed bowed his head
and was silent. Pride and manllness
were sorely wounded. He had come
squarely up against situation neither
had apprehended. Indecision, actual
poverty shut them in completely.
But Rhoda, brave, hopeful, industri-
GUS, suggested the way out.
They had been married in q quiet
way only three months agone. Then
John Bascom had what he considered
a life job with the furniture factory
people, where he had been employed
for two years. He had Saved a little,
but this had gone to furnish the hum
BILE little home they had rented. Then
had come disaster. The factory had
burned down che night. All work
was suspended until it could be re-
built.
> "You see, John, we must not give
up," Rhoda had said. 1--WE owe near"
ly seventy dollars, that we counted on
paying out Of next months salary
"And there is Nd next months sal
ary!" submitted John desolately.
. UNLESS 1 earn it," cried Rhoda
cheerily-"and that I can do. l will
simply go back to Bellville and take
my old position in the millinery store.
You know I got good pay. There is
no such chance for me here in Taun-
ton. In the meantime you must look
after the house here"
"And have it said that I am living
on my wife," resented John-'never!'
But Rhoda had finally prevailed.
They must not break up, she insisted.
And then John asked a pertinent ques-
ton:
"And what about Teddy?"
For moment Rhoda's fair brow
wrinkled with perplexity and concern.

DRINKS on the streets of Bennington
Saturday afternoon and evening week
after week, placed there by the saloon
keepers themselves SO times out Of a
hundred make no license votes faster
than all the temperance orators that
ever spoke in town. When good
workmen and good citizens are kept
away from their jobs for weeks at a
time while a liquor dealer takes their
money and piles up debt that will
render the family destitute for an in
definite period the saloon keeper is
an active agent in the cause of prohi-
biton. What is true of Bennington is
true all over the country. There is
one great force that is fast driving
this country to prohibition and that
force is composed of the men who sell
liquor and those who drink it to eX-
cess. Billy Sunday, William Jennings
Bryan, the anti saloon league and all
the other similar organizations are only
a small factor in the matter.
