THE NAIL MAN

CAT. MEN Some day you'll make trip The fortune teller said you would And SD you will. Then take unto yourself this tip: If on your journey you would find ccntentment, and enjoy yourself, Be kind to every cap man you may
 meet.
 The porter on the train will be The first cap man to cross your path. And he will smile quite pleasantly And take your bags. and lead the way TO cushiored seat. and bow quite low. Ard all the time he's doing this He watches you with well-traned
 eyes.
 Aud takes your nicasurei And lf your measurements are broad, He'll pave the miles along your trail With kindly deeds, Well knowing that the future holds A sure reward; Be Kind to him. and you'll not regret. The next cap man that comes will be The passenger conductor, And he will stand with visage grim The while you're searching every
 place
 You could have put your ticket; At last you find it in your sock, And he unrolls q yard or so And punches il all full of hoies, Then keeps It. And anxious days go by your head, But still ha won't return it; It does no good to follow him With ileading face. he scorns' you; But he will give it back again Just as you arc about to swoon; Be patient. don't let this cap man get
 your goat The next cap man to harass you Will be the bell hop in the place Where you are stopping; His little Tommy Atkins cap Is on awry,
 And he has got most appraising
 eye.
 Be kind to him. And grease his itching talons now
 and then.
 And if you chance to stroll one day Where all the world seems mad, and
 you're confused, And you search for one friendly face To set you right. I'll tell you of q cap man true Who'll never turn his face from you h any town, on any day, Look for d cap man dressed in gray, A Postman old and seedy too. And tell him what is worrying you. I'll wager, friend. where'er you roam You'll think you've met . man from

 The old recipe for keeping a hus- band properly domestlcated was 10 make home pleasant for him. Mill lions of wives tried this with but indifferent success. and so it will be interesting to zee whether making 1t dangerous to leave home works out any better.
 Perhaps the wives who use cave women methods In preventing their husbands from wandering from their own frasides are simply revertins to typo, and using the same method that their pre- historic ancestors did in keeping their mates from straying off after younger, and simmer fe- males with less hair and shorter teeth than they had.
 Fear Keeps Us Right
 Undoubtedly. wholesome fear of consequences does q lot to keep us all in the straight and narrow path. Women are, as sex, more moral and lead more upright lives than men do, not because they are intrlnsically of highor. and nobler nature, but be- cause society has made them pay q bigger price for wrong doing than 1t makes men pay.
 Just as many women as men have wandering fancies. Just as many wives get tired of fat and stupid husbands as there are husbands who get tired of fat and stupid wives | Just as many women at middle age would like to have one more fling and one more bite at the angel food of romance, as there are middle aged men who crave the thrill of another amorous adventure.
 But whom the average woman mar ries she eettles down to be good and faithful wife. She stiles her yawns, and tries to hold the thought that John Is good provlder even fl he Is prosy. and tedious. She satis- fies her hankering for cake with bread and butter. because if she l'doesnt her husband will yanlS her into the divorce court. and she will find herself forlorn. declassee wom- an. without home or position, or meal ticket.
 Husband, on the contrary, may nlb- ble at forbidden fruit with compara- tive safety so long as he doesn't do his apple eating in wifc's face, or call public attention to it.
 IG iq because women have forgiven their husbands sidestepping, and men have demanded that their wives toe the lina that women are more respect fnl of their marriage vows than men SO perhaps the woman with the gun may do more towards domestieatln9

men than the woman with the cur tain lecture has ever been able to do.
 New Angle
 The woman who kills the man who has tired of her and turned to an- other women Is easy to understand. She Is q primitive woman and takes primitive revenge. The wife who dlvorces her husband and makes him marry the woman for whom he has forsalSen her Is of more complex nature. but 1t Is doubtful if her re- venge Ia not of subtler and deadller kind than that Of the wife who has slain her man rather than let her rival have him.
 Of all dead things in the world, the deadest is a dead love. You can no more revive 1t than you could breathe life into a corpse, or blow upon burnt out ashes until you kindle them into flame again. So the wmoan whose husband has ceased to love her loses nothing that could contribute to her own happiness when she bestows him upon aother woman, but none the less she takes her re- venge to the uttermost when she ties them together by marriage.
 For honor Is honor. and loyalty is loyalty. eternally. and the man who i, did not have it In him to be faith l ful to one wife will not be faithful to another Indeed, often, by the time the second wedding bells are ready to ring he is already tired of his new love, but society holds him bound by the unwritten law to this i second woman, and so he must marry her no matter how little enthusiasm he has for the undertaking.
 nnu.f Add prestier
 Generally, these marriages are not of a kind to add to mans prestige in either the business or the social worlds often the woman Is far from being of her own class, or the i kind who would be acceptable to his family and friends. but even when she is woman Of breeding and edu- cation, the Knowledge that every where she goes people whisper be- hind their hands the story of her past indIscretions is stab at his pride as deep as any fury could deal
 As for the woman. the curse of 1 jealousy that eats in her happiness day and night is upon her For as 1 she took her husband away from his first wife. so shall some other woman | take him away from her The weak ness that made him her prey will de- liver him into the hands of a younger and fairer vlmp some day.
 l For as we SOW. we reap. and every | wrong is sooner or later avenged.

night of the program. Many other in

says that these are perhaps the high
spots on the program. Especial stress
is also laid on the children's hour
which is held at ten O'Clock each morn
ing. An excellent trained children's
worker is i'll charge of this work, and
according TO Mr.. Nelson, this feauture
on the program is even better than
ever. y new manager w. w. Davis,
and the oldest in point of service con-
nected with the chautauqua, will he
in charge of the chautauqua this year.
The afternoon programs will begin at
four o'clock with the evening perform
ance beginning at eight
The sale of the tickets to the chau-
tauqua this year has been placed in the
hands of the Parent-Teachers Associa-
ton. This will eliminate the war tax
of % cents which heretofore has been
charged. so that the season tickets this
year will be sold for only $3.50. 1t is
especially urged that those who intend
s..r--x
as il will eliminate the trouble and
worry of going back time and again to
the same people trying to sell the tick
cts. With the good program arranged
and the lowered price of the tickets
there should be no trouble in selling
the required number of season tickets
this year.
