HOW TO PLEASE THE MEN.

II all the year werr playing holidays.
To sport wo.!d be as tedious as TO
work
But when the, seldom come, they wished
- for some.
And nothing rIcaseth but rare accidents
There's a man In almost every fam
fly. If not, there ought to be. Once
in a while. he is the household drudge,
rs it were. the pIod who keeps the
wheel Of support going. But NOR"
generally he i found t. he the king
If the home, III" one person whom ev-
cry member of IN" family is most anx-
iouS to please. There is nothing which
has 50 much weight with either sons
or daughters a~ for the mother to re-
mark: "NoHr father will not be- pleased
If you du this or that" It's thread
bare joke about families trying 10
please the young son of the household.
Even the young men who call come
in for their share. If they are not
pleased in the way they are enter
tanned. the girls know full well that
they will not be likely To come again
very soon All of the girls future pros
poets depend upon pleasing the men.
The young woman who has a sarcastic
tongue is told To curb ii if sh" would
make herself pleasing to the opposite
sex. Even in her dressing, whether
she will admit il or not, she cares Il
great deal as To whether her male
friends are pleased with her appear
ancc or not. 1t is only natural that
women should like to appear most fair
in masculine eyes.
Nine family men out of ten will tell
you they have no SAY 50" about the
house. The truth is. everything around
and about it is for their pleasure. If
the head Of the house is not pleased
with Corncd beef, no matter how much
the girls may want II, it is tahOoed
from that table. II he has n sweet
tooth and has never been able To get
over the liking for the maple cake
which his mother used To make, II Is
the greatest pleasure wife knows
tn go down to the kitchen and cOncoct
with her own hands the sweet he likes.
II IS the ambition OF working girls to
be at their best in the eyes of the
foreman, their fellow workers and en-
ploycrs.
Men do not realize TO what extent
they are really lords of creation. If
all the male inhabitants in the world
were united in the one desire to please
the women. what a wonderful world
this would he. The trouble is, men
are wont to please themselves and let
ii 90 at that. 1t must be said To their
credit that they are generally rational
In their wants. likes and diSlikes.
They have no other wish than to be
pleased with women. The girl who
pleascS them best. they court and wed.
All the world turns upon the axle Of
pleasing. What delightful existence
it is, then. after all, when the princi-
pal aim and object in life is in making
il pleasant for sOmc0ne-and that
someone's aim is in making it pleasant
for US.

Animals Have No Sense of Rhythm

Animals have no sense of rhythm,
though they may be taught to dance"

Craig of the University of Maine.
Horses driven in span." he says in the
Guide to Nature, make no attempt to
step together. Two birds, however
sweetly they sing solo, never sing in

other music. Even the so-called dancing

LIVESTOCK DEMAND
WAS SLIGHTLY BETTER

South st. Paul. June 4.-Declines
the first Of last week in all divisions
We're checked later and all classes Of
stock were selling at steady to strong
prices as the week closed. Cattle
strengthened somewhat In price, and
g made a good recovery. Receipts
were light in all divisions.
The decline in killing cattle came
to 9 stop about midweek and the last
haf of the week witnessed improve
ment In The trade. Price recovery wa
not important, but demand was bet
ter and there were spots where the
market was Enthusiastically stronger.
For the week the market remained
16@25c lower. and generally 25@60c
lower than the best time the week
before.
A curtailment In receipts was noted
last week. and this was the main fac
tor in steadying the market. Receipts
here for the six days were 5000 cat
tie and $3.50 calves, compared to o.
400 cattle and 6,066 calves the pre-
vious week. Other markets showed a
here was smaller but was plenty
large at that.
From the quality standpoint, the
week was not a notable n The $12
figure was about the upper limit all
week on steers, though one, straight
loan on Monday made $12.35. Demand
for fat steers improved some toward
the close of the week, but there was
not enough of this class to give the
market a good test. The $10.50@$11.-
90 spread caught most Of the steers
of good beef caliber. Packers were
called upon to take a lot of stock
steers, due to the poor sale on that
stuff to jobbers. This and the medium
and common grade killing steers sold
under $40 all week. with $3.50 the
upper limit on a big share Of them.
Cows and heifers sold within a low
er spread than they have in quite a
while. with 50 being the top on
much of the she stock. This showed
a depreciation of half a dollar from
the best time recently. Quality had
much to do with the way the stock
sold. good cows and heifers being rel
atively scarce. Toward the close of
the week the $3.50 and $40 money
was more in evidence.
Gamers and cutters developed into
pretty good sellers toward the close
Of the week. with $6.50@$7.50 the
prevailing spread. The decline on
these was more severe the first Of the
week than OH anything else. and not
much recovery was made later.
Bull trade was slow and prices
lower the first half Of the period. then
took a sudden squirt and strengthened
> up a triae. Not a large percentage Of
$3.50 was about as high as the best
offerings made.
Veal calves steadied after a.decline
Of $1.25 in four days. This left top
venlers at $12.76. Though receipts fell
of some compared to the previous
week, they were large.

VEroEs Bid.

Havana, CUBA, June 4.-(Corre-
respondence Of The Associated Press.)
President Menocal has vetoed a bill
recently passed by the Cuban con
gress. which provided that no ship un-
der Cuban registry should be cleared
from any port Of the republic unless
the captain was a native or n%aturaliz-
ed Cuban citizen.
In vetoing the bill President Memo
cal stated this country Is without a
sufficient number Of experienced navi-
gators to have such a law on it's stat
ute books. and that to put such a law
in operation would work serious in
jury upon the republics small mer-
chant marine and probably would re-
suit in compelling owner of the sew
eral large ships now sailing under the
Cuban flag to transfer their registry
to some other nation.
The measure is said to have been
inspired by ambitious Cubans who
have been studying marine engineer
ing, in the hope that they might be
able to become commanders Of the
several informed German ships recent
ly seized by the Cuban government
when diplomatic relations were brok-
en- off with that government.

times and were ready to pay q pre-

advanced subsequently to a top of

spread all week.
