THE IDEAL WIFE.

It is clear from the records of our
courts that many men have been
under the impression that they did
not possess ideal wives; likewise many
women have quit supposing that they
have had ideal husbands.
Maybe if Socrates had lived in our
age he would have divorced his wife;
instead he merely utilized her petu-
liant temper to cultivate patience. But
too many in our time don't care to
cultivate patience that way. In fact,
some of us think we are too busy to
be patient.
One reason why domestic tranquil
lily is flee as the bird in some homes
is because somebody expected ideal
traits and instead meets with quite
human ones, and lacks the patientt to
swallow the difference.
The foregoing is merely little ad-
monishment to be added to the good
words already handed numerous
couples by Pine Bluff ministers this
SPRINT.
Patiences young fellow more patti
ence, girls! This is hard world to
strike after q honeymooning trip into
the clouds!

UNFOLDING FRANCE.

No talk of peace comes from
France, although that nation did not
want war and did not strike until
attacked. To an American recently
General Joffrec said: "Lincoln's mot
to in your war of secession was the
same as ours is now--to the end"
General Joffre has been described as
a Grant in tenacity, which Verdun
shows, and Lee in strategy, which
the battle of Marine proved. AS is
Joffre, so are his men from one end
to the other Of the longest battle line
of history, the scene of the most stub
born deadlock of hostile armies in all
the worlds wars. The French have
surprised all observers. They were
credited with gallantry and were sup
posed to have remaining something of
the old Napoleonic dash, but it was
not believed that they had the perse-
verence of the Teuton or the tenacity
of the Briton. Yet no troops have
better endured the long severe strain
of trench warfare.
At Verdun, it is related, "where the
German offensive is delivering its
most smashing blows, concentrating
its utmost strength and weight of
artillery and rifle fire, the regiments
of France stand indomitably courage
Gus, hard as tempered steel, never
wavering never thinking of retreat,
beating back wave after wave of the
German flood of lead and IRON" Truly
it has been said that France has Ere
conquered glory and the praise of
brave men forever" These gallant
people, who did not want and are not
to blame for this war, instead of talk
ing of peace, tell the inquirer that
they have mot yet begun to fight"

each season at the factories in this
country where cherries are canned.
This would make 200 tons of the
fixed oil, worth $4,000; 6,000
pounds of the volatile oil, worth
100000 and $50 tons OF meal worth
$4,000, a toal OF $154,OO0 besides
more than 5000 gallons of pure
alcohol; 1000 gallons of syrup or
$4,000 gallons of jelly that could
be made from the wasted Juice
Every wage Garner should un-
derstand how systematic saving,
though in small sums amounts UP.
More than s in every ten or Sl3
per cent of males in the United
States, ten years and over were en-
gagged in gainful occupations last
year. National statistics list the
workers as follows: 30,091, 564 men;
8,O75,772 women; 1,9o0,225 children
10 to IS years, or over 1872 per cent
of that group age, making a total
of 40,17,5 SOL. If each of these
wage earncrs saved dime a day it
would amount to 81 ,465 .750,076.50 a
year. Or if each saved dime a
week the total would be $208,819.-
1920 A dime month saved
wou1d~amount to $4S18oOo3.20 in
a year. And only a dime a year
would total the sum of $4,015,750.1O
in one year.
If each wage Garner in the United
States saved one dime a day from
the time he first began to work
and invested it. what a valuable an
nuity he would have to fall back on
when he could no longer work! 1t
is the small savings of large num-
Der that make a nation rich.

amounts when the occasion, to our
notion, seems to demand!
Though we as people arc
wasteful, yet every little while we
are told of use that is found for
something formerly considered a
waste product. 1t has been demon
stratcd by the bureau of chemistry
of the Agricultural department. that
the kernels of cherry pits yield an
oil, very much like almond oil,
worth 40 cents pound; and vola-
tile oil like that of bitter almonds
that could be used in making per-
fumes and flavoring extracts, worth
about $40 pound; what is lett
would make a meal for stock feed
like cottonseed cake, worth about
$40 ton. The juice that is wasted
in pitting the cherries could be
used in making table syrup, jelly
and alcohol.
Three and one half millions tons
of cherry pits are thrown away

the greatest menace to human health
and life during hot weather; no agency
can compete with the fly as a carrier
of disease; if the fly was eliminated

Federal investigators give out the
following data relative to the size and
construction of the house fly: TT is
slightly over a quarter of an inch in
length, has two very thin wings, and
has four long stripes on the upper part
of its body. Its hairy legs are pc
culfarly constructed to give out a
sticky fluid. and it is this which en-
ables the fly to crawl upon vertical
window paneS. This fluid causes his
feet to adhere to whatever he touches.
Upon these hairy, sticky legs are
found the majority of the germs of

many to be found all over his body,
