Her husbands insurance money
often will enable a woman to have
better clothes than his salary ever
did.
Funny how selfish most wives are.
They insist on doing all the knocking
of their husbands themselves. Just
let any of the neighbor women start
to help them out along that line and
it will make 'em madden than wet
hen.
Not all the women are interestd in
this birth control, but they all show
the most marvellous control of their
own birthdays.
The only time most of us experience
any difficulty in swallowing is when
we have to choke down our own
words.
A bachelor always thinks in a home
where peace and harmony reigns the
wife either has the most angelic dis
position or else her poor boob of a
husband hasn't any more backbone
than a jelly fish.
Progress has its drawbacks. When
we are angry we never can get half
the satisfaction spinning a revolving
door that we used to get in slamming

The silver lining to a bald head is
the consolation you will no longer
have to worry about the dandruff on
your coat collar.

Longevity of Women.

Although On the average women live
longer than men, a woman Of twenty
five has fewer chances Of living to fifty
than a man of the same age. On the
other hand, if man and woman have
both reached the age of fifty, the
chances are that the woman will out
live the man, fact accounted for by
the difference in temperament.

Not until the drama had been estab-

the pantomime, one of the simplest

drama was the invention of the Greeks

Keats:
He is made one with nature; there is heard
His voice in all her music from the moan
OF thunder to the song of nights sweet bird;
He is a presence be felt and known
In darkness and in light from herb and stone
Spreading itself where'er that Power may move
Which has withdrawn his being to its own;
Which Yields the world with never-wearied love,
Sustans it from beneath and kndles 1t above.
In such wise the man whose birth we celebrate
has entered into the life of his people and
is in process of penetrating the wider circles of the
whole worlds life This, on It's earthward side
Is the Immortality of Abraham Lincoln.
The man had thousand Boswells but no great
one Some 1900 books or pamphlets have
been issued dealing with the various phases of
the subject. But if the choice must be made
between the books other men have written about
him and Lincolns words, the letters and adj
dresses hold first place. He be trusted as the
best witness in his own case His word was as
good as his bond, and his life as good as his
word. Speech the water from a living well,
under which the stream Of character never failed
Probably the majority of men desire to be count

great effort to find what is true And, Sir Thomas
Browne declares, not every man is fit champion

The same is true of the letters, which are full
of keen and kindly applications to the life of each
one of US and of the whole people. Even with
Gettysburg and the second inaugural in mind we
have found more nearly complete and satisfying
expression of the in his letters than in his
addresses In them he confounds the enemies Of
the Republic. admonishes, warns, and instructs his
people, and comforts the broken-hearted with
tenderness that had blossoned upon the graves of
Nancy Hanks and Ann Rutledge and upon those of
mis- children.
For in this reason and emotion were

against him. AS an inquiring boy he read Tom

the pressure of human need constrained him to
turn to Divinity.

Gen. Daniel Sckles was hardly the man to invent
a pious tale. He has repeated to many witnesses

The persistent angle OF this coast
line is such that at that hour OF the
morning no ray of the rising sun
fell upon It at all. The lake side
of the hills and the whole width OF
beach lay in unbroken shade The
exertion of struggling on over these
gravel beds kept her fairly waEn,
but when she got too tired to strtg-
gle any farther, and that point, It
seemed, was not far away, what
was TO prevent the chill from steal
ing into her very bones? She had
made a Are once In a picture by
rubbing two sticks together. There
were plenty OF sticks lying about
little higher up the beach, but this
time there was no technical director
10 prepare them with an electrical
connection and what not, and she
felt perfectly sure that in default
OF this special preparation the trick
wouldn't work.
She was bitterly hungry too, yet
she couldn't pump up any sort OF
hope OF coming upon a bread trul.
or banana tree, or OF finding shard
ot dry bone and spearing a fish with
1t. The technical director had too
much TO do with these wlndfalls OF
good fortune also,
In this horrible abandoned place,
along this runway OF despair where
she might walk, II seemed, for days
and days, II you got cold enough
you fro2e; II you got hungry enough
you starved--there would be no in
terposition to the contrary.
Bill, following behind her-some'
how she knew that was what he
was doing, though she hadn't looked
around nor heard a sound or him
Bill was perhaps more nearly
starved and frozen than she was
She slackened her pace little un'
der the impact OF the idea that per
haps the reason why he hadn't l
overtaken her long ago was because
he couldn't. This accomplished
nothing, however and to stop ana
wait for him was the thing she
would not do. But II she turned
of and explored the dunes a bit.'''
That mightn't be 8 bad thing 10
do, even apart from the chance II
would give Bill to come up with
her. Behind this desert barrier OF
sandhills one might find human life,
civilized society; food, warmth
shelter, even respectable clothes
might be purohasable commodities,
A little ahead 10 the left was what
looked like a cleft in the sandhills'
