been, is yet, and will continue to be,
that every man in this state, either in
the country or city. should acquire a

self a wife, to get home in which he
and his family can live as citizens of

promise their wives before marriage
that they shall have home. This is
often the leading inducement for wom-

ANY healthy, Industrious man il

home either in the country or in the
city easily enough. When a man fails
to buy a home he stands in his own
light: he infiicts a cruel wound upon
his family; he brings on himself Sc

''In time Of sickness, when rents
come due and cannot be paid, he may
not find neighborly indulgence and
sympathy but instead thereof the cold
hand of heartless and avaricious
landlord. At this moment of his dark
est gloom, threats of dispossession
and snarls of bill collectors take the
place Of neighborly visits and the
might songs Of cheerful friends. These
suggestions must unfold to the mind
on the other hand the many pictures
of horror and distress that must hover
over the unsettled tenant; and on the
other hand they should furnish the
pictures of contentment, happiness
and prosperity that light up every
well regulated home

District Of Columbia, acting for and
by the direction Of the president and
In accordance with said act of congress
and rules and regulations prescribed
pursuant thereto. shall apportion the
quota so apportioned to such state, ter.
ritory or district and shall communi-
cate to each local board established
In such state, territory or district no.
tice Of the net quota to be furnished
by such board, and such net quotas
shall %thereupon be furnished by the re-
spective local boards as required by
said act Of congress and rules and reg
ulations prescribed pursuant thereto"
In computing the number Of men to
be required from the various states
the government put to the credit Of
each state every man 1t now has In
the National Guard and every man 1t
has contributed since April l as a
wal volunteer to the regular army.
Computation Method.
Placing on the debit side of the led
ger the national army Of 10000, the
entire National Guard at war strength
and the number Of war volunteers
needed on April / last. to bring the
regulars up to the war strength, the
grand total was apportioned according
to population.
This gave a gross quota for each
state, from which a net quota was CON-
puted by checking off the number Of
National Guardsmen available for fed
eral service and the number of men
given by the state to the regular army
since April 1.
The apportiOnment was made on the
basis of an estimated grand total for
the United States and its possessions
Of 105, 366,O58 inhabitants.
This is a paper estimate, computed
from registration returns, which comes
within the law requiring distribution
of quotas by population, but which
equalizes in a great measure, the bur-
den that Is to fall upon the 1850 ex-
emption districts.
Total Of 1,162,ee5.
Each will furnish under this appor-
tionment the men its total registration
would indicate as a fair proportion,
rather than the number the actual pop
ulation of the district would indicate.
The total Of these gross quotas Is T.
152, 1856 men.
Credit is given to the various states
for a total Of 485,9S5 voluntary enlist
ments in the National Guard and reg
ulars, making the total net quota for
all states 6S7, 900 men.
Illinois, which was the first big state
to fill its quota for the regular army,
reduced Its gross quota Of 1904 to
51,653.

To keep Water Cold.

An excellent way to keep water cold
a long time with little ice is to take a
pitcher of ice and water and set In the
center of a newspaper; then, by gath
ering the four at the top and
bringing the ends together with a
strong rubber band around them to
hold close together, the air Is exclud-
ed. A pitcher of water treated In this
manner will stand all through the
night with very little perceptible melt
ing of the ice, and even after the ice
does melt the water will keep cold a
long time.
