Eliot. of Harvard, w iahea to apply tin* theory to happi ness Writing in res|K>n»e to a Now England man who wanted to know why the former president of llaryard continued to oppose labor unions, Dr. Eliot aaya: “I cannot agree with you that the trade* union* have brought happiness to any workingmen Higher wages, ahortened hours, better clothes and more meat do not necessarily contrib ute to genuine happiness any more th:;n the luxuries of the rich do. Hap piness and content are state* of mind." Thla is not impressive. A man In a contented state of mind can find happiness without an automobile or a trip to Europe, although he might en joy and profit by both. Hut a laboring iran cannot he happy If he works IS hours a day, or If hia wages are inauff ficlent to buy nourishing food for him self and hi* family. 4j i.

Dr. Eliot's heart Is in the right place, hut we fear that he does not under stand the working men of the country* and we arc certain that he does not understand trades unions either their merits or defects.

R.due.d tax rata,! Bu,in,aa government, managed in buameaa faahion! Employes choaan for officioney rathor than for thoir ability to poll wards! An awakanad civic conscience and civic spirit! Those ara just a few advantage, tha mors than three hundred cities that have adopted commission government have got out of tho new rulo. Without exception tha metaages from the eitiea that have tha re form tell how commission govern ment haa brought efficiency out of inefficiency; how it haa aroused a new interest on tha part of tho citizens in their municipal govern ment. Tha testimonials of tome of these commission government cit ies aro hare given: Brought Economy, Efficiency, and Di rectness to Fort Smith, Ark. The plan us the commission form of government Ik very simple and eagerly Nought after by cities, great and amall. that find their affalra badly Involved and handled In a bungling way hy old fashioned ward heelers and grafters. In a few words, the ronimiaaloQ plan means economy, efficiency and direct ness. it la economical liecauae a.vKtemallc huslnes principles are applied to the conduct of purely business matters. There la no occasion for politics In the business of running a city because It constats of buying supplies, building streets, sewers, water works, parks and public buildings. In all of which expert knowledge la needed. It Is efficient because the officers are elected for their special fitness for (he specific positions they are to fill This Is an age for experts In every line and we need expert city builders just as we do experts In surgery. What does it signify If a man can control ten thousand votes and does not know tha proper mix of cement or has no artistic sense of civic beauty? Directness because nny citizen can at any time treat directly with the of ficer Who Is directly responsible for the matter In hand, and the officer cannot say: "Thla matter will be re ferred to such and such ft committee for investigation." lie must act at once. . .. If an officer is inefficient and dis honest he can he held to acolint at on: e and if necessary, removed. The same quality of men will be better officers as commissioners than as eouncilnien. because they and they alone are per sonally responsible for their short comings and In addition are under THE ART OF FINDING A HUSBAND (By Constance Clarke.) “I have the funniest feeling tha* wf'vp lost our way." •'But wo haven't," said Dick, rens suiinglv, as he peered anxiously into the six cylinders of his new racer ••Well, why tell me so"" I gpwnbled. “I think It would be quite thrilling and romantic.” ”1 can easily lose my way if you in sist, but It's simpler not to. As it is. were far enough from luiywliere to have it appear Just as romantic as you like" And Dick's hand closed over mine in ft way that led me to believe that he was altogether right. “Well, If nothing's the matter, let s go on. if you really won't pretend we're lost." , _ "1 am lost. Peggy, absolutely lost. I was lost all the while I was In Eu rope, and 1 thought 1 could find my wav. but l couldn't. The cornls were the onlv things that helped out at all. 1 wondered what I might to say. I thought Idea bad finished thinking thing* about me. *Tr had 1 changed. AI any rate, he never tried to rule me now the way he used to before I stop pel helping him exceed the speed limit. We usd to be such pals, but 1 bale to have a mvan decide things for me without ever giving me ft chance, and to tell the truth. Dick as a pos sible lover sugeated all sorts of un dreamed of excitement. "Have von seen much of Marian Collins lately?” 1 ventured, attempting to change the subject. And then as he looked at me slowly, "Oh Dick, please start the engine." We were on a country road up somewhere near Tuxedo, and we had stopped passing machines ever since we had struck it. so evidently we were quite off the beaten track. And now that the time had actually arrived 1 was begtnnig to feel terribly shivery. At any rate, I had only had one pro posal ' and Dick might—Oh. I don’t know, that kissing problem always frigthtens me, and how 1 was going to help myself? Dick's lazy eyes were anything but A Man Demands Yet— A man dpmamla: That ti girl shall be perfectly unso phisticated And as Ignorant as a babe of all the evil* In the world, YET be able to take care of herself amldsT all of Its perils. That she shall be a gay little but terfly. YET possess a noble soul con cealed under her frivolity. That she shall babble Idiocies. YET be capable of being a real companion to an Intelligent man. That she shall be a fluffy ruffles, whose clothes inske other women rub ber. YET care nothing for dress, espe cially after she gets married. That her hands shall awavs be nice and pink, and white, and soft, and squeezable, YET that she shall be handy with the cook stove and the dish washing That she shall fall in love with him at flr.t sight. Y'ET not be too easily won. and give him a run for his mon ey before she finally accepts him. That she shall be fire to him, YET Ice and snow to all the balance of the world. A man demands of his wife: That she shall be perfectly devoted to him, BUT that she shall never make her love a burden to him. That she shall live only in his pres ence. lti'T that she shall not resent his absence. That she will be a clinging vine. BUT that she will only festoon herself about him at such times and seasons as it is agreeable for him to act the heavy bond for the faithful perform arc •• i.t i lu-ir duty The commission combining the leg islative and executive can pass ordi nances governing the affairs of the city, and aa they refuse to pass needed ordinances the citlxen* themselves can pass them. The commission cannot give away valuable franchises These are voted on hy the cltlxena at large. As to tha practical worklncs of our commissioner*, they reduced during their second month in office the over head office expense an amount equal ling the total of their salaries They, together with county Judge, saved the district 1-4 trillion dollars on the city hall and courthouse, The commission, on account of Ita expert knowledge and by devoting at tention to the matter, solved In the simplest way a problem in sewage which has been a subject of great con cern and heated discussion for ten years. All contracts are most carefully ne gotiated and every cent Is paid out un der closest scrutiny. In short, our affairs are conducted like those of a great corporation, the city being the sole beneficiary. The moat remarkable effect of the new plan la the revival of Interest of every man, woman and child in the affairs of the city. Every one has be come a booster because they realize that they now really have a hand In the upbuilding of their city. The commission form is the most representative form of government ever discovered. Business Government in Lexington, Ky. Hy J. E. Cassidy. Mayor. Commission government is working very satisfactorily In Lexington for the simple reason that the majority of commissioners are in good faith trying to carry out the intent of a business government. Does Away With Ward Polities in Fargo. N. D. By H. F. Emery, Mayor. I am positive that I speak for !>0 per cent of our people when I say that the commission form of government has given satisfaction In our city. Since the commission took charge we have made considerable reductions in the financing of the city and improving the condition of all departments. There seems to lie many arguments in favor of commission form of government. I have failed to find a reasonable argu ment against It. Tt does away with ward politics, an unwieldly body of al dermen and places the responsibility where it belongs. lazy Just at that moment. ' Peggy, perhaps 1 haven't a chance in the world with you, perhaps I don't deserve one, hut I'm desperate.” "Why, Dick,” I said inocently. drawing as far away from him as I could in my present surroundings, •'we're friends, why be desperate about anything?" "Don’t fence. 1 know that you can choose from a circle of men that swarm around you all the time. Why I have heard from every fellow at the club about some doctor who has been chasing around after you." I smiled Inwardly. Dick didn't know that that was all past and done with. After all It was a safe proposal com pared to this one. and even if I didn’t know what to Bay, why—Oh, if some one would only come along. “What would you do if I should kiss you?" he said suddenly. "Don't he absurd,” 1 said unore calm ly than 1 felt. "Let's try to overtake the others on the road; we can't be so very far away from them." He was standing on the running board and he leaned forward suddenly . “A bargain.” he whispered, “a kiss and we'll start See. I'll crank her and we'll be off." And in a second the engine thrilled into motion. Then l)ick came hack determinedly. "Peggy,” he whispered unsteadily, and then he lifted me out into his arum. There was no need of struggling; he forced my head back on his shoulder and I closed my eyes with a sob. 1 didn't want it to happen then. And suddenly down the road came the roar of a Klaxon and a glare of light, and 1 slipped out of Dick's arms aa Ma rian Collins called. "We thought we'd lost you for good. AVty trouble'."’ And then I was nest ling into my furs and we were flying along the road again as if nothing had happened. But I was simply bewild ered at myself. Do you know why? Because ns 1 stole a glance at Dick's face, stern and uncompromising. I was glad that it wasn't all over. What if I should be going to fall in love with Dick ? part of the noble oak.

That she will be a good cook, BUT never smell of the kitchen. That she shall have enough sense of humor to laugh when he makes fun of her peculiarities. BUT not enough to perceive his eccentricities. In a word, men demand that woman should be a fool, a sage, a lover, a prude a fashion plate, an economist, a cook, a lady, a parlor ornament and a kitchen utensil. That is the reason so few men are satisfied with their wives. YYe can expect Mr. McOraw to erect a big sign over the Polo Grounds reading PURVEYORS OF BASEBALL To Hi* Majesty, George V. Nothing Looks as Cheap as a Cheap Hat. Some men chink be cause the name is hidden it makes no difference what price is paid. A cheap hat on a man's head is its own advertisement.
