"They seem to have no illusions

and how they would miss me,
and I simply grieved myself sick.
But Alicia couldn't get away fast
enough. I could see how 1t

mentioned it to Alicia. / asked
her If she wouldn't miss her
mother and father. She said Of
course she would and she sup
posed they'd miss her. But why
should she get all smoked up
about it? I told her how I had
felt as g. girl. And she said,
Well, if thinking those things
made you feel that way, Gramma,
then you sure were an awful sap
to go on thinking them!
THAT is just a sample. She
has the same hard, matter-of-fact
attitude toward everything in
life. She and Edward, who is 10,

1t all and never complains. No
one has ever heard her utter a
word Of criticism of her husband.
To me this is not only proper,
but very beautiful. But Alicia

REGISTERING
AT HOTEL
Mrs. Cornelius Beeckmanl
YEAR MRS. BEEcKMAN:

nEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
II / am a widow with two
daughters. Please tell me the
correct way for US to register
at a hotel. My daughters say
that we should all register, and
that we should register: Mrs.
Martha Brown, Brooklyn, New
York; Miss Lily Brown, Brook
lyn, New York; Miss Rose
Brown. Brooklyn, New York.
A READER.
You should all register and the
daughters should register as you
have indicated. But you should
register MRS. David Brown" or
whatever your husbands first
name was. In other words, a
widow should use the same for
NAL name for formal occasions
like this that she used when her
husband was living. It is much
better form than for her to use
her first name. When register
ing at hotel a woman uses
the formal name that she uses
on her visiting card.
nEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
- Will you please tell - me
the proper way to congratulate
a newly-married couple?
MRS. C.
Offer your "best wishes" or
''best wishes for your happiness"
or "every good wish to you" to
the bride, and congratulations"
or "heartiest congratulations" to
the groom. If you will remem-
Der these phrases as a begin
ming, you will find them most
convenient. They are the ac-
copied phrases to use, or at
least to use first, and after
them you may add anything that
the degree of friendship will
suggest. 1t is not supposed to
be quite the proper thing to Of
fer congratulations" to the bride
ON having won a husband!

SAYINGS OF
MRS.SOLOMON
BY Helen Rowland

Painful Northumberland Rooster
Picked Wives
MY Daughter, in all the world,
Ux what is sadder than a hem
pecked husband?
Yet, he hath his sympathizers.
But a rooster-pecked wife is with
out pity; for she beareth her lot
in silence.
Verify, NO husband is painless:
for every man hath his little ways
that try the soul OF woman. But
Of painful husbands, some are
more ACUTE than others.
Behold, Ananias was not hero;
but, as an husband, he was
sweeter far than one that OBJ
serveth the wrinkle in his wife's
stocking and the spot upon her
slipper, and frankly telleth her Of
her shortcomings.
As an earache in a March wind,
SO is a man that perceiveth the
cobweb upon the ceiling and
pointeth out the dust upon the
chair-leg.
AS a corset-steel in the flesh,
as a pinching garter, so is an hus-
band that snoOpeth in the ice
box, counteth the eggs. keepeth
tabs on the cook, and developeth
a brain-storm over the laundry
bills.
He that readeth his wife's letters
over her shoulder is as a New
England conscience at a Paris
masked ball; and he that counteth
his wife's calories, chooseth her
hats, and oYdaineth the length of
her skirts and the height Of her
evening gowns is as persimmon
to the teeth and starched nap
kin to the lips.
Likewise, amongst painful hus-
bands. is he that grabbeth the
center Of the stage and seeketh
to be the life of the party, and
causeth his wife to blush for his
inanitiea.
Also, he that nurseth a before
breakfast crouch and turneth the
merry morning repast into a
funeral, and the airy persiflage
into timid stage whispers.
And he that pickett at his food,
testeth his egg, with suspicion,
and scorneth the over-ripe melon
as a potentate fearing poison.
And he that regardeth the
shower bath as One-man ln5ti-
tuition. the newspapers as his per-
sonal property. and the most COM
Portable chair as his always. by
divine right.
And he that taketh always the
OTHER side of A question just "to
balance it," and turneth every
argument into a dramatic mono
lOgue.
Verify, verify, all these may be
Good Husbands" in the eyes of
the world. but each is a thorn in
the flesh. Yea. they may be the
salt of the earth, but they re-
semble more pepper in the eyes.
tue-but they are more like
bread-crumb down the neck!
For, they are painful husbands
and their wives are rooster
pecked.

 KAN FUR FARMERS

x The cooperation of Alaskan fur farmers is being sought by the Pu-
 get Sound Fox & Fur Association in
 staging a fur farms show in Seattle
 next fall, it was announced by c. D.

in the northwest.

in the northwest,
 The purpose of the show is toI demonstrate the value and scope of the fur farming industry of the Northwest and Alaska, and to ad- vance the industry by bringing those engaged in it closer together and more directly before the public. Its exhibitors will include not only fur farmers but fur dealers and manuf- acturers of fur garments, MT. Gar field said
 The Puget Sound association is composed of owners of 100 fur farms in the Puget Sound district. It has perfected close organization among it's members and is bending all its energies to betterment of breeding and market conditions.
 In it's show next fall, which is planned to run a week about the mid- de of November, it is desired to have representation from Alaska, Washington, Idaho, and western Mon tana. On his present trip, MT. Gar field is doing missionary work for it among Alaskan fur farmers and, he said, has met with encouraging ini- tial response in this part of the Ter ritory. He will get in touch with Prince William Sound, Kenai Penin- sula, Alaska Railroad and Kodiak growers. He believes now it win be possible to have exhibits from every section of the Territory Much interest already has been shown by eastern Washington, Oregon and Id- aho farmers.
 The fur growers, he said, are ask ed to make exhibits Of live animals. Fur dealers and manufacturers will exhibit raw and tanned pelts and manufactured articles.
 Two entire floors of a big garage building, 100 by I2O feet, have been secured for the exhibition. Booths ten feet square will be available for all exhibitors at a nominal rental charge, fixed to pay the expenses ot the show.
 One of the floors vii be used en- tirely for foxes and exhibits of all varieties grown are assured. The other floor vii be used for all other fur bearing animals grown in the districts represented, including mink marten, muskrat, rabbits, etc.
 George H. Jensen, of Tacoma, is president of the association, and e 4. Ingalls,, of Everett, secretary, both practical fur farmers, are taking ar active part in promoting the expo sition.

Why Teeth Hurt
When You Eat
Sweets and Ices

If your teeth hurt when you
eat sweets or ices. it is an in
dication that YOUR teeth are
soft.
All teeth are soft when they
first come through the gums.
Normally they grow harder
with age. because Of a tooth
hardening substance in the
saliva, provided to harden the
teeth and oounteract decay
For some reason. among CIV

When the saliva lacks this

Nevertheless New York is up in
arms against the shooting Of her
policemen and another cleanup of
the city is on the calendar. But in
all such movements there Is the
usual> friction. the usual play of
charges and counter charges. The
metropolis Is no different from Cam
ton, Ohio. In that respect. The po-
lice commissioner here says that the
magistrates are far too lenient ard
far too quick to grant bail to men
arrested for possessing and carrying
guns. The magistrates reply that
the commissioner is endeavoring to
cover up the delinquency of his de-
partment by blaming it on the
courts.
The warden of Sing Sing prison
has come forward with the most
plausible explanation of the recent
shootings. He says that men con-
victed of bigamy and highway rob-
berry are being sent up for 40 years,
whereas the penalty for. second de
gree murder only is 20 years. Cor

NEW YORK. August 12.--There no
longer Is talk of crime wave in the
United States. 1t is not a wave. II
is an era. And wherever you happen
to find yourself in the country, East
or West, North or South, you seem
to be in the very center of lawless-
ness. Crime today wears coat of
many colors. 1t varies its methods
according to locality.
New York is in the grip of what
Police Commissioner Mclaughlin
rightly has called a war--a war to the
death on gunmen and all other char
acterS OF the underworld. The com
missioner has decreed no quarter to
the crooks. but pretty soon 1t will be
necessary to say to shoot on sight
and shoot to kill
Six New York policemen have been
slain in the past seven months and
20 badly wounded in fights with hold
up men and other crooks. Whatever
else may ever have been said about
the New York police. there never has
been question as to their bravery
