We have always MAIN
tanned that a good housewife
would make successful
storekeeper. The qualities
that are necessary are the
same.
She must keep her home
neat and attractive if she
would have friends and rela-
tives come to visit her joy
ousiy.
She must be a good hostess
if she is to be popular in
the town and community in
which she lives.
She must serve her din
ners IN way that will ap-
peal to those who sit about
her board.
She must supply the little
conveniences that make
house a home to her husband
and children and visitors.
And, she must care for the
health and well-being of her
family.
Yes, any woman who can
successfully manage a home
would be equally successful
as manager of a store.

Newspaper With One Subscriber,

1t has been the infexible custom in

writer in East and West News, to
withhold all newspapers and maga-
zines from its members until they at.
tain their eighteenth year; but the
rule was waived in the case of Hi
rohito, the present crown prince. Four
months before his imperial highneSs
entered upon his eighteenth year he
was allowed to begin reading spe-

This curious newspaper was edited
by an official Of the imperial house
hold and printed in the imperial print

and printed on thick, japanese paper.
The reading of it did not require a
great deal of time, for it was of small

New Orleans. - The tremendous

Louisiana is changing the character
oil the state. which VIII no longer
measure its wealth in bales of cotton,
sacks of rice and tons of sugar cane,
but it will be expressed rather IN
barrels Of oil and cubic feet of natur-

are rapidly being transmogritied into
industrial pandemoniums. Great mo,
tor trucks replace the numbering
farm wagon, dcrricks rise in place of
silos,, and the soil is now being
drilled for its mineral wealth rath-
er than its vegetable riches.
The oil and gas industry is fast
outstripping every other activity in
the commonwealth, and every week
uncovers new sources of wealth, de-
posted by natural processes in the
bowels of the earth millions Of years
ago, awaiting but the mechanical
genuius OF mankind to unlock the
treasure chambers.
Among the many and varied actiVi-
ties Of the State Department of Con-

taking rank as of first Importance,
and largely increased appropriation
by the state is necessary for the
proper supervision by the department
of this great industry. An increased
force of conservation agents and as

Me-" the drunkard yelled. He
sprang forward and stauck Mer-
lin full in the face. This was a
signal and the miners obeyed it,.
In full force they rushed upon the
defenseless boy who, overwhelmed
by Their superior strength, now lay
helpless on the floor while they
kicked him with their heavy boots
and tumbled, over each other in
their drunken fury.
But again Pedro came to the
rescue. Darling into the midst of
them, he smashed his guitar into a
thousand pieces over the head of
the leader and quickly drawing his
knife, went to work in earnest.
They drew back and glared at him,
their faces gashed and bleeding.
Then they beloved, Its that
damned greaser! Well, he won't
do that trick again!"
One of them drew revolver and
fired full into Pedro's heart and the
Mexican fell back gasping to the
floor
"Oh you damned brute! yJl
have killed Pedro" shsuted the
barkeeper from behind the bar.
He had no more than said this
when the whole drink-crazed
bunch went over the bar after
him and tore him literally to
pieces az a wolf tears it's prey.
During this awful melee Merlin
arose from the moor and darted
through the door, pistol bullets
smashing the windows and sing
ing after him as he went.
