Crude Thoughts From the Editorial
Pen.—Pleasant Evening Reveries : :
The pretty girls whose
faces are their fortunes, soon
go into the hands of receivers.
The reason why people suc
ceed who mind their own busi
ness is because there is so lit
tle competition.
‘ ti HET 'n
There is nothing more tant
alizing to go home all primed
to scold about something, and
find company there and be
obliged to act agreeably.
Be Useiui.
Do not be ashamed of doing
the smallest thing that is help
ful to others. The opportuni
ties for great usefulness come
rarely, but the smaller things
are always at hand, and he
who does them constantly is
of great usefulness, and some
times when the great oppor
tunity comes it is only the one
who has trained himself
the little things that have
come before who is master of
the situation. Be kind, be
faithful, be true to all who
have any claim upon you. Do
not miss a chance to do a fa
vor to those who need your
help, and you cannot fail to
become useful men and wo
men and of such, the world
has great need.
Sometimes the husband
finds no warm kiss of affec
tion and sweet, cherry word
of welcome at the door and
fireside, when at nightfall he
comes home weary and heart-
heavy from toil which may
have yielded small return. O,
my friends, how bright our
homes ought to be! Kind
words, loving deeds and pure
affection should rule in them.
Are the little ones made to
feel that home is the sweetest,
cherriest, best and brightest
spot this side of glory?
From allurements abroad which Just Mutter
the eye.
Will the heart unceasingly turn with a High
While far distant It In sadness may roam,
And sing In sweet melody "there was no place
like home."
The Woman to Marry.
Is she not the very sparkle
and sunshine of life?—a
man who is happy because
she can’t help it—whose smile
even the coldest sprinkle of
misfortune cannot dampeu
Men make a terrible mistake
when the} - marry for beauty,
or for talents, or ior style.
The sweetest wives are those
who possess the magic secret
of being contented under any
circumstances. Rich or poor,
high or low, it makes no dif
ference; the bright little foun
tain of joy bubbles up just as
musically in their heart. Do
they live in a log cabin? The
fire on its humble hearth be
comes brighter than the gild
ed chandelier in an Aladdin
palace. —*
Where is the stream of life
so dark and unproitious that
the sunshine of a happy face
falling on the turbid tide will
not awaken an answering
gleam ?
Sometimes.
Sometimes the hasty word
has been spoken, the sharp
snappish word been carelessly
uttered in the home circle
The true wife’s heart so often
bleeds at the bitter, thought'
less, but cutting word of
husband. When she is gone^
to heaven and he ‘‘weeps o’er
her bier” he will remember it
home separation and bereave
ment, when the question is
put to thee, mourning parents,
“Is it well with thee?” you
can answer with joy, “It is
well!”
A boy will forget in a mo
ment when his mother rescued
him from drowning, but he
will remamber all the days of
his life the time his mother
made him wait until thS com
pany had eaten.
Farmer’s Wives.
We often find farmers who
lose no chance of securing
machinery for saving labor on
the farm, but who don’t think
anything about the machines
that save labor in the house.
That is out of their province,
and they don’t seem to care
enough about it to give the
matter any attention whatever.
Such treatment is calculated
to discourage the woman. It
is the worst kind of selfishness.
A woman’s work on the farm
is quite as hard as a man’s if
the man could only be made
to realize it, but—he won’t, in
many cases. He consults his
own interests, and lets his wife
get along the best way she
W0 ‘ can, forgetful that her inter
ests are identical with his own,
and should be so considered
by him. Lighten the labors
of the women all you can.
Don’t think it will encourage
idleness to introduce articles
of labor-saving machinery in
the kitchen. It never has
done so, and it never will.
Back of the machine is the
woman, and the woman on
the farm will aiways find
enough to do.
Advice to Young Men.
If you think that a woman
is any weaker minded than a
man, stop where you are.
If you intend to treat your
self any better than your wife,
don’t take one.
If you suppose that running
the house consists in paying
the bills, don’t‘undertake it.
If you have an idea that you
are too good for a picked up
dinner, remain a bachelor.
If you have found it a hard
task to be happy yourself,
don’t try to make any one else
happy.
If you have chosen a pretty
woman without regard to her
other qualities, halt; you are
on the wrong road.
If you think a house should
have only one head, and that
be yours, postpone your wed
ding indefiinitely.
If you are of the opinion
that marriage makes the man
and wife one, and that you are
one, send in your regrets at
once.
If you are one of the men
who think that ten per cent of
their income belongs to the
tap room, let marriage alone.
Household Piety.
Your .household piety will
be the crowning attribute of
your peaceful horn e—the
“crown of living stars” that
shall adorn the night of its
tribulation and the pillar of
cloud and of fire in its pil
grimage to a “better country.”
It shall strew the family with
the flowers of promise and en
shrine the memory of loved
ones gone before, in all the
fragrance of that “blessed
hope” of reunion in heaven
which looms up from a dying
hour. It shall give to the in
fant soul its “perfect flower
ing” and expand it in all the
fullness of a generous love
and a conscious blessedness,
making it “lustrous in the
livery of divine knowledge.”
And then in the dark hour of
A Traveling Man’s Experience.
I must tell pou my expericnca on an
East bound O. R. & N. It. It. train from
Pcudulton tq LeGramle, Ore., writes Sam
A. Garber, a well known traveling man.
I was ]n the smoking department with
some other traveling men when one of
them went nut into the coach and came
ba'k and said, ‘There is a woman sick
unto death in the car. 1 at once got up
and went out, found her very ill with
cramp colic; her hands and arms were
drawn up so you could not straighten
them, and with a death like look on her
face. Two or three ladies working with
her and giving her whiskey. 1 went to
my suitcase and got my bottle of Cham
berlain’s Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy (I never travel without it.) ran
to Uie water tank, put a double dose of
the medicine in the glass, poured some
water Into it Hnd stirred it with a pencil
then I had quite a time to get the ladies
to let me give it to her, but I succeeded
I could st once see the effect and I work,
ed with her, nibbing her handB, and in
twenty minutes I gave her another dose
By this time we were almost into Le
Grande, where I was to leave the train. I
gave the bottle to the husband to be used
in case another dose should be needed
but br the time the train ran into Le
Grande she was all right, and 1 received
the thanks of every passenger in the car.

Bad Breeding.
Of all the for ns of bad
breeding, .the smart manner
effected by boys and girls of
a certain age is the most of
fensive and impolite. One of
those so called smart boys was
once employed in the office of
the treasurer of a Western
railway. He was usually
alone in the office between the
hours of 8 and 9 in the morn
ing, and it was his duty to an
swer the questions of all the
callers as clearly and politely
as possible.
One morning a plainly
dressed old gentleman walked
quietly in, and asked for the
cashier.
“He’s out,” said the boy,
without lookiug up from the
paper he was reading.
‘‘Do you know where he is?”
“No.”
“When will he be in?”
“About 9 o’clock.”
“It is nearly that now, isn’t
it? I haven’t Wsstern time.”
“There’s the clock,” said
the boy, smartly, pointing to
the clock on the wall.
“Oh, yes; thank you,” said
the gentleman. Ten minutes
to 9. Can I wait here for
him?”
“I s’pose so, though this
isn’t a public hotel.”
Thtf-boy thought this was
smart, and he chuckled aloud
over it. He did not offer the
gentleman a chair, or l.ty
down the paper he held.
“I would like to write a
note while I wait,” said the
caller, “will you please get
me a piece of paper and en
velope?”
The boy did so, and as he
handed them to the old gen
tleman, he cooly said:
“Anything else?”
“Yes,” was the reply, “I
would like to know the name
of such a smart boy as yon
The boy felt flattered by
the' word smart, and wishing
to show the full extent of his
smartness, replied:
“I’m one of John Thomp
son’s kids, William by name,
and I answer to the call of
“Bill.” But here comes the
“boss.”
The “boss” came in, and
seeing the stranger, cried out:
“Why, Mr. Smith, how do
you do? I’m delighted to see
you. We—”
But John Thompson’s kid
heard no more. He was look
ing for his hat. Mr. Smith
was president of the road, and
Billy heard from him later, to
his sorro>v. Anyone needing
a boy of Mr. Billy’s peculiar
“smartness” might secure
him, as he is still out of em
ployment.—Youth’s Compan

While Kennedy's Laxative Cough
Syrup is especially recommended for
children, it is, of course, just as good
for adults. Children like to take it
because it tastes nearly as good as
maple sugar. Its laxative principle
drives the cold from the system by a
gentle, natural, yet copious action of
the bowels. Sold by Cooper’s drug
store.
Reflections of Uncle Ezra.
Certainly it is getting so
nowadays you can’t tell from
a feller’s clothes. and hair-cut
whether he is a rube or a gen
ius.
Many women are not as bad
as they are painted.
When I see a widder wear-
’ crape twenty-five or thutty
years, I always think that her
husband must have died be
fore she got very well acquain

If Roosevelt gets too strdng
with his - natur-fakin’ charges
he will git to be disliked in
my town for bein’ too pusonal. 1
Those, of us who ain’t got false
teeth have got glass eyes, cork
legs, artificial hair, cold-cream
complexions or dyed whiskers.
Hod Peters of our town is
so stingy he makes his wife
write all her letters iu short
hand, so ns to save ink.
It may be all right to belong
to the Four Hundred, but, by
gravy, I’d hate to have any of
the Four Hundred belong to
me.
They say accidents will hap
pen iu the best of families, and
according to reports from Pitts
burg, most of them do.
I never see a married wo
man who didn’t cry at a wed
ding and wish the couple much
joy while she was wipping her
nose.
Don’t make fun of an old
maid. A woman who is an
old maid at thutty may be a
dashing young widder at thut-
th-five with a life insurance
roll.
Job may have had boils,
but, by jing, lie never grabbed
his wife’s hot curling iron in
a dark bedroom and put it in
his mouth by mistake for a
cigar.
The government laws on
substitution may be pretty
strict, but they can’t prevent
us from using a good old

Anybody can write for a

Education is a great thing.
A school teacher who is extra
efficient can get thutty-five

gets $5 a day.
Hi Huggins says be can’t
afford an automobile to take
his gal out riding in, but as
long as the old gray mare
lives he has got a good spark
plug, anyhow.
I know a feller who is using
four hoop snakes for rubber
tires on his buggy, and I ain’t
any nature faker, either.—

How To dot Strong.
I*. J. Daly, of 1247 W. Congress St.,
Chicago, tolls of way to become
strong: He says: “My mother, who
is old and was very feeble, is deriv
ing so much benefit from Electric
Bitters, that I feel it’s my duty to
tell those who need a tonic and
strengthening medicine about it.
In my mother’s case a marked gain
in flesh has resulted, insomnia has
been overcome, and she is steadily
growing stronger.” Electric Bitters
quickly remedy stomach, liver and
kidney complaints. Sold under
guarantee at Cooper’s drug store
