THE NAeGiNG WIFE.

University Magazine: In the
course of our investigations we dis
covered that in some homes, although
the wife was not dissolute, she was.
nevertheless, almost wholly to blame
for the wretched conditions which
existed In these cases the husband
was Woodworking and earned sufii-
cient money from week to week to
win comfortable home, If he pos
sessed comfortable helpmeet, but
the wife, unfortunately, was afflicted
with the densest ignorance of the art
of home-making. In some other in
stances the home was made unhappy
by a nagging wife, with rasping
tongue One woman of this type ap-
peared in the Juvenile court charg-
ing her husband with neglecting her
and her children, and during the In
curry unconsciously gave ample evil
dence of her own ill-temper and
tactlessness. The husband offered no
evidence himself, but merely asked
the court at the end of his wife's
TRADE, which it was impossible for
the court to check. Can you blame
me for taking drink OCCASIONALLY

FUEL DTCTAToRs CALLED DOWN.

National Fuel Administrator Garfield has
taken notice Of what has been apparent to
those closer to the base of performance, and
that is that some state administrators have
been so ambitious in their conduct of af-
fairs touching the control and movement
of fuel and in the PRONUNCIATION Of orders af
fecting the conduct of business that in many in.
stances they have exceeded their authority.
They are now notified by Mr.. Garfield to ''back
up The admonition was called forth by the
fact that some state administrators enforced
the Monday closing order in manner more
drastic than was intended by the government
and because of conflicting instructions issued
to consumers.
The public is of belief that the United
States fuel administrators order of January
seventeen is sufficiently drastic and that fur
Their extensions should not be attempted unless
absolutely required by local emergency and
substantially supported by local sanction. II

THE SPIRIT OF SUCCESS.

Minneapolis Journal: A writer in
Physical Culture dominates enthasi-
asm as the most precious possession
a man may have. 1t may be incon-
sistent from lack of intelligent direc-
ton, it may bubble over instead OF
boiling just enough, but 1t is the
spirit that moves the world En-
thusiasm Is a quality that keeps its
possessor bright, alert and alive.
A western philosopher has said
that when a man succeeds, he does
it in spite of everybody" When a
man makes a venture much out of
the ordinary, he is opposed by about
everybody connected with him by
relationship or friendship. His en-
thusiasm must be great enough to
cause him to go on Sin spite of
everybody"
Many man who has this upwell-
ing enthusiasm. and who has, by Its
aid, planned out course. to pursue,
is careful to tell no friend. relatives
or business associates for fear OF
having his enthusiasm dampened and
of being moved out of the course
planned Advice is often great
killer of initiative. Men who know
nothing about matter who have not
thought it out. who have not been
moved by the enthusiasm of the
spirit that conquers difficulties. are
free to give advice. This is the adj
vice of the thoughtless. 1t takes a
hardy plant to survive it. The man
who considers it, is likely to be
moved to that hesitation which
leaves him on the platform consider
ing while the train of success sweeps
on.
A man who succeeds must be care
full whose advice he takes. and he
must have enthusiasm enough to rise
above the advice of those who dc
not know as much about the matter
| as he does.

SOME RESULTS OF CRITICISM

the policy and the opinion which
sustains it. Whenever the govern
ment admits that mistakes have
been made, delays encountered,
equipment found insufficient, men I'M
provided for it calls attention to the
magnitude OF the task and the I'M
possibility OF proceeding with the
desired speed and effectiveness.
That inapossibility arises out of
policy OF unpreparedness persisted In
by the government and sustained by
public opinion 1t is not a defense
of the policy or of the opinion. 1t
is an exposure of 1T. Criticism may
change the opinion and thereby
change the policy 1t is proper and
expedient TO hold these defects up
against the policy which produces
them. Conditions cannot be urged
in extenuation of deficiencies.
Criticism which attacks this COM
placency seeks opportunity but con-
suits expediency, keeping in mind
the general results to be obtained II
| possible, which is correction or
policy without detriment to the
present activities.
| Reproaches which deal with the
past without reference to the future
| have no usefulness. But whatever
| the past holds up as warning for
| the future has usefulness. Expert
ence must be the teacher and critl-
cisrn holds that experience up as an
example.
| The specific cases brought for
ward to obtain direct government
action are justifying themselves. The
government. with protest and com
promises, with reluctant concessions,
constantly indicates that faults IN
method and defects in machinery
have been found.
| While the administration is de.

ministration is reorganizing the war
department, replacing men who
have been found. by the very inves-
LEGATIONS complained of, incapable OF
letting the work be done.
! The claque which constantly en-
ideaYors to hamper constructive criti-
cism constantly is forced to report
the changes which criticism forces.

FUEL FROM NEWSPAPERS.

Scientific American: An accumula-
ton of old newspapers may. be con-
verted into an excellent fuel for use
in stove, fireplace or furnace. The
papers should be piled into tub or
il is about one-third full, and the tub
then filled to the brin with water
Left thus for two or three days, the
papers will become thoroughly soaked
II at first they show an inclination to
float, a heavy stone laid on top Will
weight them down until the water
completely covers them.
When thoroughly soaked with water
the papers are taken from the water
and squeezed into balls about the size
OF ones two fists and thrown onto the
ground in the sun to dry. The papers
have become so saft and pulpy that a
perfectly compact ball is easily form
ed. 1t will dry, if left in the sun long
enough, until it is almost as hard as
wood. These balls if. made in the
summer, will constitute excellent fuel
for winter use, and will burn in the
fireplace with glow like carbon
briquettes. Moreover they will burn
With comparatively little ash. and they
are clean to handle.
Old papers become real nuisance
about the home, and rather difficult to
dispose of even by burning on the
trash heap. summers accumula
ton can be in the manner above de
scribed converted into considerable
supply of fuel, and the labor is easy
and can be done at odd times.

a Mistake and a Failure.

Eagle Grove Eagle: Miss Rankin
as a congressman is an embarrassing
mistake, not only to the friends OF
female suffrage but to every patriotic
citizen of the United States. She
has shown an utter lack of compre-
hension of what it is to be member
of the great body to which her con-
stituents elected her simply because
she is a woman. While government
is dfstinctively masculine job there
are some women who have qualifica-
lions to do good service in congress,
but Miss Rankin is not one of them.
She is a lamentable failure. She lacks
not only loyalty, but sense. She has
made some of the most crude and
childish propositions ever known In
congress. Montana should, and doubt
less will. unload her at the first op
poTtunity.

PARLoR CARS NOT NEEDED.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: The trav-
cling public may as well get used TO
making long trips in day coaches. for
until this war is over there will be
decidedly reduced number of parlor
cars in operation on American rail-
roads. It's not that parlor cars are
needed for service abroad or for the
hauling of coal at home; it is merely
that the day coach carries a larger
number of passengers with smaller
amount of power and labor than the
more luxurious conveyance. In re-
gard TO their necessity. sleeping cars
and dining ears take precedence over
parlor cars: the latter constitute a
luxury and are the first to merit elm
nation. Sleeping cars are necessary
on long trips; dining cars save sched-
ules by saving the necessity of stops
for meals. But parlor cars merely
make travel pleasant for those who
can afford them. All trips but those
of necessity are to be discouraged.
Our ancestors survived Inconvenience

EFT tn. BRUTE!

Burlington Hawk-Eye: For half
century, Kentucky has been the
recognized and representative home
of the distilling interests of the
United States. The Blue Grass
state became the butt of newspapers,
photographers and public speakers as
Bourbon" reactionary in its poll
tics, its inhabitants devoted to horse
racing and whisky, large proper
ton of the men bearing the title of
colonel This exaggeration wrought
injustice to a people possessing many
noble characteristics and giving birth
to many citizens who achieved dis
tinguished public service and honor
ed the learned professions and other
callings. Kentucky has to her credit
not only the most eminent of all
Abraham Lincoln, but long list of
men and women who have achieved
distinguished honors.
But looking at Kentucky as the
paradise of the distillers, the nation
experiences a thrill over the tele-
graphic announcement that the legis-
lature has ratified the prohibitory
amendment to the federal constitu-
ton. And by a very decided vote.
Who. twenty-five years ago. would
have yentured such result In
prophecyt Surely, the moral forces
of the Blue Grass state have been
carrying forward a great evangelistic
work.
