Discipline In Work.

Work is the greatest discipline.
rian In the world, definite, regular
work, coupled with the knowledge that
if you do not come up to the standard
you will lose your job. The reason
there are so many wretched housekeep-
ers and miserable cooks among the
married is that they know they hold
their jobs for life and can't be fired
for incompetence, at least that is one
reason; another is, a multiplicity Of
duties, so various that no particular
one of them can receive due attention,
and still another is, that they have
not the incentive Of a weekly pay en-
velope, and in many years no pay en-
velope at all, even a yearly one.

With a hot feeling Of surprised an

have beenit; yet why had she selected
him as the likeliest looking pickpocket
in the crowd? Wilbert Dunton was
much chagrined and decidedly sore.
Not an hour after the episode on
Broadway, a certain young woman
stood before her dressing table.
"Aren't you ever going to be dressed

tering from the other room.

for she had hoped, or at least figured
that Wilbert Dunton might be a matri-
monial possibility for the niece whom
she had v+ptured to pilot through the
social season.
However, that young lady was, or
seemed to be. entirely mistress of her
own destiny, for after she was
dressed she slipped down to the phone
and called q certain number. Then

have gone back to the days Of 70, 80

has caught the popular fancy Of all
American women who have seen It are
trimmed with, bias folds Of the mate

neck and outline patch pockets on the
hips. They are not stitched; they are
turned under, slip-stitched and lightly
pressed down. Cable cords, ~ We used
to call them, have also been revived.
They are made into loops, heurs-de-ns
and Chinese designs and places

There is almost q distracting va
riety in sweaters and sweater-coats to
choose from this season. And along
with them sleeveless satin and velvet
sports coats have entered the race for
consideration, and sleeveless coats of
silk Jersey. All of which goes to
prove that q sweater, or sports coat
or both-are indispensable In the
wardrobe of today and that one can
afford to think twice and then think
again before making q final choice
among them.
Where not much In the way of
warmth is really wanted Of the sweat
er and it is worn more for smart style
than anything else, the new short,
hand-knitted, slip-overs are apt to
win approval. They are made OF
heavy zephyrs, In gay colors and knit
ed on large needles. Turquoise blue
and rose pink are favorites for them
and one sees an occasional jade green.
Nearly all Of them have white knit
ed collars. 1t is left to the individ-
ual to decide for or against sleeves
and If the sleeves win, then white
knitted cuffs are theirs by right.
These sweaters At the figure some

miss Jane A. Delano. director Of

usual opportunities offered by the In
surance law, enacted for the protection
of our army and navy. The provisions
of the insurance bill apply equally to
nurses assigned to duty as members OF
the army and navy nurse corps, and
make it possible for the nurse to Sc
cure, at nominal rates, protection for
herself as well as for designated men,

compared with the number Of women
in America who should stand back OF
them and make possible the service for
which they are so greatly needed at
this time. H.
1.-THE nurses who share in the hard
ships, the dangers and the privations
incident to war should be looked upon
as the representatives of the woman
hood of America at the front, and
these women who stand ready to sac
riflce all, even their lives if necessary,
should receive the sympathy, the sup
port and the interest of the millions of
women whose husbands, brothers and
sons are fighting for the safety of the
country. Not only should the women
of the country encourage nurses who
have this blessed opportunity for serv-
ice to volunteer promptly, but they
should make every effort possible to
protect the nurses holding themselves

sary. -.

CARRIE nations
Make Early Appearance. Fifty Wo
men Attacked BarabOO Saloons
with Hatchets in 1854

Madison, Wis.-Aggression directed
against the liquor interests of Wis
consin began soon after the state was
admitted to the union. One of the
earliest drives was that conducted by
the temperance women of Baraboo
during the early spring of 1854. Ac-
cording to a report found in one of the
volumes of an old Sank county history
now in the library of the State His
torical Society in Madison, the sale
of liquor in Baraboo had become so
heavy as to cause the women to take
drastic action. Early one morning a
crowd of fifty or more women appear
ed on the streets armed with axes,
hatchets, spades, hoes, and clubs and
made drive upon one saloon, de-
stroying all the whiskey barrels, beer
kegs, bottles, and all the liquor in the
house. The crowd then marched to a
grocery store where liquor was sold.
The owner met the women at the front
entrance, some of the women rushed
around to the rear, and destroyed
whatever whiskey and beer they could
find. The women then marched to at
tack the most notorious saloon in town
The proprietor, known as French Pete
met them with gun in hand, only to
be knocked senseless with a spade
welded by one of the women. The
crowd then invaded the saloon and de-
stroyed all the liquor they could find.
After several attempts on the part of
some of the liquor dealers to prosecute
the women, few Of the ringleaders
pleaded guilty to the charge of disturb
ing the peace, were fined $50 and the
cases were dropped.

WHY Towns Grow

Clown boosting" campaigns are a
favorite subject, and often the means
of doing big things. Many people
think that when they have had rous-
ing Board of Trade meeting and have
appointed a committee to locate new
industries, results can be expected at
once. Commonly those communities
go to sleep, and the town goes on in
the old rut.
To get any results, it is necessary
to organize. But the appointment
of decorative committees, that merely
meet and gossip, is useless. Getting
new industries is difficult, as most Of
the old established firms prefere to
stay where they are. But there are
always chances to get new concerns
or new branches of old ones. 1t takes
hustle to make known a towns ad
vantages and solicit cooperation. But
the thing can be done and the town
that grows has usually done it.
1t is a problem to know in season
of bona fide opportunities, where
really worthy manufacturing propo-
sition is seeking a location. When it
becomes known that concern is think
ing of establishing itself in some new
place, it gets offers and inducements
by the hundreds.
Such information comes only when
business men keep their eyes and ears
open, and cultivate wide acquaint-
ance A wide awake town booster
should belong to commercial organi-
cations outside his town. He will
make business friends every time he
takes railroad journey, or stops at
a hotel, or goes on an automobile
trip. He will cultivate their acquaint-
ance, get points useful to himself and
his home town.
If all the business men of Grand
Rapids were constantly doing this, they
would hear of chances to obtain new
enterprises to locate here. If such
chances were followed up, some of
them would make good.
