MADE WISE CHOICE OF WIFE
John Browns Helpmate Apparently
Ideal Woman for q Man Of His
Stern Disposition.

John Brown, whose body later on
lay "a-moldering in the grave" once
described the lady who afterward be.
came his wife as a remarkably plain
but neat, industrious and economical
girl" These latter virtues seem to
have atoned for her want of physical
charm, for he and Dianthe Lusk were
married when she was nineteen and
he was only twenty.
Dianthe was strOng-minded wom-
an, but she made John an excellent
wife, and their twelve years Of mar
ried DIFFERENTIATED by her early
death--were most happy. He was a
man of decided and violent disposi-
tion, and his wife is said to have pos
sessed the faculty of getting him to
do as she wished and causing him to
believe that 1t was his idea all along.
She died In 1882, twelve years after
their marriage anu just after the birth
Of their seventh child.

CAUGHT IN PASSING

Every cloud has silver lining, but
you have TO rise above It TO see it.
Not the simple life is the simpleton
life. The latter Is usually expensive.
A woman seldom dresses to please
her husband-unless she pays the bills.
stop worrying about the sorrows of
yesterday and go after the Joys Of to-
day.
When you talk louder than the other
fellow It's ii sign you're wrong and he's
right.
AS rule when a man begins to look
for trouble he Overestimates his ca
pacity.
Every man is as old as he feels, but
he should try to look younger to please
his wife.
Every woman has a certain look
with which she thinks she can
squeich man.
Getting into trouble is generally ex.
penSive, but some people just will have
expensive things.
Poetry of love is transformed into
prose when matrlmOny reaches the
paregoric stage.
If bad habit hasn't killed a man
by the time he Is seventy-five, he is
pretty sure 1t won't.
The halo man sees on a girls head
during courtship develops into a bon.
net after marriage.
SO many people are imposed on be-
cause they fear they may be entertain
Ing an angel unawares.
Any man who can keep his UNI
brcllas in the right place has the
faculty of saving money.
No one now offers any moralizing
on the blessings Of poverty. 1t is
called "the simple life"
If there Is such thing as a perfect
woman 1t must be one who Is able to
conceal her imperfectiOns.

STRANGE NEWS ITEMS
FROM THE DAILY PRESS

Washington, Aug. 1O.-A man in
London tried to hang himself. He was
a poor hand at it, but he died Just the
same. The doctor testified that there
was no sign of death by strangulation,
so the Coroners duly brought in a
verdict of'suicide by auto-suggestion,'
the first of its kind on record. The the,
ory is that the man believed he was
hanging himself, because he had a
handkerchief looped over bed post
and about his neck, and that the CON
viction that he was being strangled
succeeded in killing him. 1t is not
thought that killing ones self by
thinking one is dead will become
popular.
London is also responsible for the
story of William Skinner, a sailor who
lost his life in the battle of Jutland.
When his body was recovered the US
ual brass Identification disc was taken
from his neck. On the reverse of it.
in words so fine they require a mi
croscope for reading, is his will, leav-

and most unique will in the annals of
law, has just been admitted to pro-

CHIEF OURAY, THE DICTATOR
OF THE UTES
By Elmo Scolf Doison


ITO the Chiefs. Headmsn and Utes OF
the White River Agency: You are hereby
requested and commanded to cease hos
tilities against the whites, injuring no
innocent person or any other further
than to protect your own lives and prop
critics from unlawful and unauthorized
combinations and desperadoes, as any
thing further will ultimately end in dis
aster to all parties.
tsignedD "OURAY."
OUCH is document unique in In.
- dian history. No other Indian
chief had a secretary to whom he die
tated orders and there is no other
case on record of a chief calling upon
his warriors In this manner to lay
down their arms after they had shed
white blood. 1t is evidence of Ouray's
greatness that his command was
Obeyed Immediately.
In 1879 Agent N. G. Meeker had
trouble with the White River Utes
and called for troops to protect him.
Maj. T. T. Thornburgh with force
of $50 men marched to his relief The
Utes took this as a declaration Of war
and attacked them on the Milk river
in northwestern Colorado. Part Of
them besieged the soldiers, killing 13,
including the commander, and wound
ing 4S. Others attacked the agency
murdered Meeker and nine other white
men, taking five women and children
captives. Then came Ouray's message
and the ute war" was over.
Ouray, "The Arrow" was born in
Taos, N. NJ, in 1884. He was bap-
tized by Jesuit priest and educated
in little Mexican school at Taos
where he learned the Spanish tongue
| In 1850 he returned to the UteS who
were then engaged in bitter strug-
gle with the Navatoes, Cheyennes and
Arapahoes.
One day war party of 30 Utes led
by Ouray was attacked by 800 Arap-
ahoes. The chief rallied his warri.
ors, formed them in a hollow square
/; and then in fight lasting IA hours
they finally beat off their assailants
Soon after this Ouray's only son was
captured>by the Arapahoes. From that
day the Ute chief never allowed his
tribe to rest from hostility toward
them. In later years he appealed tC
the government to restore his son tC
him, but the boy had become so much
an Arapahoe that he refused to come

HIDES AND SHOE LEATHER
ON FREE LIST

The Democrats in Congress includ-
ing South Cardinals 2 Senators, Dial
and Smith, have scored big victory
in getting boots and shoe leather
and hides put upon the free list. This
same action was taken by the house
over year ago, but it was thought
the South would put these articles in
the high tariff. The committee of the
Senate reported in favor of the tariff
but when the vote was taken it was
80 to "a. Several Republicans voting
with the Democrats.

Senator Simmons, of North Caro-
lima, who has made so many mastery
speeches in Congress in opposition to
the tariff bill recently paid some at
tention to the gigantic trusts that will
be benefited by the Fordney-Mc-
Cumber tariff. The North Carolina
Senator said:
"The Republican Party has been in
power over a year and | have not
heard of any prosecutions of trusts,
although we all know that during the
war the trusts in the United States
multiplied and multiplied, and that
their power today is infinitely greater
than it has ever been in the history of
this country, and we all know that if
this bill passes the hands Of the trusts
will be further strengthened and the
further monopolization of the indus
tries of this country will be invited.
"Oh yes, help the producer. Do not
prosecute him if he is in a trust. Do
not interfere with his trust organiza-
tions. Give him free hand to mono
police, and then give him enough
tariff duty to enable him to raise his
present sky high prices until they
bump the sky. That was his theory,
and the country shall know that such

HENRY FORD'S DREAMS

COME TRUE
Some of the people who oppose ac-
cepting Ford's offer for the Muscle
Shoals project say that Ford is a
dreamer In an editorial in the Nash
vile, Tennessean the character of
Henry Ford's dreaming is thus de-
scribed:
"He has dreamed big things in the
past and they have come to pass, and
there is no reason to doubt that his
dreams for the future will come to
pass if he is permitted to aid them
with the common sense and the busi-
ness acumen with which he is possess
ed.
"Twenty years ago Henry Ford
dreamed of horseless carriage, and
today his automobile is known from
one end of the world to the other.
This was practical dream, yet there
were those who laughed at him.
'He dreamed of great industrial
city, and he has built one and more
out of the profits of his first dream.
He has given employment to thou
sands. He has spread prosperity and
sunshine over a great part of our
country, from which he has drawn
the raw materials and the parts that
20 to make the finished product which
bears his name.
"He has dreamed of an easier life
for the farmer and of greater returns
for the labor that goes into the pro
duction of crops, and he has given the
farmer a tractor to ease his toll and
to increase his potts.
'He dreamed of Il railroad that
could be operated without loss and at
the saile time give the public cheap
and &cient service, and he has
brought that condition about.
"He dreams OF great water-power
development on the Tennessee River
which will put to use a war project
that so-called captains of industry
were about to abandon. One Of the
results of the realization of that
dream will be added prosperity for
Ine IaTIneT. AHoIner VIII De tne I'M
provement of a great river, so that
heap transportation may be had. An
other will be the building of a great
industrial center which will hum with
activity and will give employment to
thousands and carry prosperity to
them and their families. Another will
be the maintenance of the great war
project intact, so that in event we go
to war again, Uncle Sam will have
ready at hand tools that he will need
so urgently.
"This is Henry Ford's dream, and it
is dream that will come true if par
tisanship and the grip of the special
interests can be smashed"
