II Can't Re Done.

Few know better than Vincent Ta-
Dor the utter abSurdity Of trying to
please the women Of today. From evil
dcnce presented in the Court of Do
nestle Relations, writes q New York
correspondent, it appears that he has
ut no time tried it, but the demands
made by his wife have convinced him
that there would be no hope anyway.
The matter in consideration was a
means to keep Mr.. Tabor at work, a
means to force him to provide So q
week for his wife's support and q
means TO terminate his desperate
struggle to drink harried world dry.
Jaw, judge, nothin' can be DONE" adj
mitted the somewhat fearful defend
ant, "as long as yuh can't make money
enough to satisfy all the highfalutin'
ideas of the women. Two months ago
we wuz all right again an everything
goin' good, when Minnie made me
move to house what had bathtub
in it. We amt had day of happiness
since"

To Induce Sleep.

When trying to induce sleep it is
well, observes an authority, to put
away all serious thoughts and try to
get the mind into pleasant, elevated
state. Some people make habit Of
reading before retiring, but too often
one reads on until eyes and head ache.
AS a result the following morning the
eyes are; bloodshot and bullying from
the overstrain and the individual has
lost the necessary amount of rest be-
cause Of this enforced strain. 1t is
most important that the ventilation of
the sleeping apartment be attended to !;
that there is clear, fresh air circulate
ing. Windows should be raised from
the bottom and lowered from the top
also, so that the air may circulate free
~. The question of whether it is
healthy to sleep with a pillow or with.
out one has been debated many times,
but a happy medium is recommended

sAA0 SOAAAzNhAty Was ouOCAeO 18St
Saturday afternoon when telegram
came from Sioux City stating that
Mrs. Fred Rohrabacher had died at
one o'clock that afternoon at one Of
the hospitals where on Thursday she
underwent an operation for Appendix
citis. She had been troubled with
the disease for some time AID serious
complications had developed which
made the operation serious one, and
she was unable to stand the shock.
Mr.. Rohrabacher had been, with her
since before the operation, and
brought the remains home Saturday
evening. Margaret Maywald was
born and grew to womanhood in Scot
land, and at the time of her death
was about thirty years of age. Elev-
en- years ago she was married to Mr..
Fred Rohrabacher. and most Of the
time since they have resided in Scot
land. One child, q daughter now
seven years of age, was born to this
union, who with the bereaved hus-
band survives her. She is also SUR
vived by her father, Chas. Maywald,
of Ethan, her mother having died
eight years ago, three sisters, Mrs.
Tony Diehl of Trip, Mrs. w. L.
O'Neill of. Moline, ILL.,, ana Mrs.
Adolph Becker Of Scotland; also an
uncle, Mr. Mathis. of Midtown. Mr..
and Mrs. O'Neill arrived from Moline
Tuesday to attend the funeral which
was held at the Episcopal church on
Wednesday at 2 o'clock p. M, con-
Quoted by DR.. Coles of Springfield.
Mrs. Rohrabacher possessed a kind
and cheerful disposition which made
her a ! favorite with those best &C
quainted with her. and on account of
this disposition to hide her own troub-
les few realized that her health was
as bad asst was, so her death came
as great surprise. The bereaved
husband and little daughter, and 9TH
er relatives, have the deep sympathy
of the entire community in their great
loss.

will speak in the opera house this af-

dates for the primary, it is not likely
that Governor Ncrbeck will have any
opposition in the republican prima

him to denomination without oppo-
