By S E KISER
How long sho asked does your
wife expect to remain In Europe
Sho hasnt written anything ho
replied that contains a clew to her
Intentions Your husband Is In Mex
ico I believe
Yes Ho wants nie to join him
there but I havent any idea o do
ing so This country suits me very
well
There are conditions under which
this can be a most delightful coun
try I have found It so during the
past few months
Mrs Weston has her mother with
her I believe
Yes Do you stray out this way
very often
I havent been doing so but I
think I shall in the future I cant
understand why more people do not
take tramps through the country
Think of the thousands of men and
women who might be breathing the
fresh pure air and looking at the
green fields and feeling the sod under
their feet out hero now if they cared
to
Im rather rlad though that they
are leaving this for our exclusive use
at present
Perhaps It was the fresh smooth
breeze that made her smooth cheeks
so red
How much there is in the point
of view she said smiling just
enough to show the edges of her -white
teeth To me that thorn tree by
the fence is beautiful but I suppose
the farmer who owns it would be glad
If some night it should mysteriously
disappear
Very likely he would Its the old
story of familiarity You admire the
thorn tree with its flaring top be
cause you live where such things are
not The caantry boy longs to live
in the crowded smoky city The man
who is cooped up in an office sighs
for the open fields
And the man who is married
would be happy if he could have sin
gle blessedness again
Only the man
He is more likely to I think
But he wouldnt e if conditions
were equal
How do you mean
if society permitted women to have
the same liberties men enjoy if
women could be as sure as men are
that they might try it again in case
they cared to the longing would be
just as widespread among them as
it is among the men
Perhaps
The whole trouble with our social
system is that it makes no provision
for the cure of familiarity If women
managed to be a little elusive I
think love would last much longer
than it does
And if men were as chivalrous
after they are married as they are
before what a splendid change there
would be in the world
But you wouldnt be- happy if your
husband exhibited gallantry merely
because it was the fashion for hus
cands to treat their wives with knight
ly consfderation You would wish
to know that his chivalrous treatment
of you was prompted by love
Certainly Still your argument of
familiarity might come in there again
I should become very weary of gal
lantry that never gave itself a rest
BufT you remember what I said
about elusiveness There should be
elusiveness on the mans part as well
as on the womans1
I dont believe it will ever be nec
essary for anybody to worry about a
lack of elusiveness on the part of the
men
t
I can imagine conditions under
which it would be difficult for me to
be elusive
You only think so If the con
ditions were present you would soon
become as weary of them as you are
of the
Conditions that exist
I didnt say that
Bujt you thought it No If the
fates had permitted us
How beautiful those crab apple
blossoms are Can you imagine any
thing more lovely
Yes I can at this moment see
something more lovely than
I wonder if the farmer would care
if you broke off one of the branches
for me
I dont care whether he cares or
not Which one would you like
Of course the most splendid one is
at the top But you mustnt climb
the tree You never could get up
through that tangle of thorns with
out hurting yourself And you might
fall
When he had secured the highest
branch for her he said
Now that you have them I sup
pose you will not care for them
I am not a man she replied put
ting her face among the fragrant blos
soms
That is why I am forgetting-1-
That it is after five oclock Come
It is a long walk to the station and I
am going out to dinner this even
ing
You said awhile ago that you
expected to come here often after
this
I didnt mean that exactly
Will you come to morrow
No
The day after
I dont believe I shall
They paused and each looked into
the others eyes for a long time He
reached out and took her hand in his
Gooy by she said at last 1 have
decided to join my husband in J

THE DIFFERENCE IN TASTE
Dogs Prized as Edible in China Are
Here Fashions Pets
He is the real thing in the way of
a chow said she Father bought
him for me in Shanghai Did you know
they ate them there
I had heard that the Chinese ate
dogs but I thought it was a fake like
the story of their eating rats
No it is the truth They do eat
dogs but only the chow variety
Chow you know means edible
Yes they eat chows In every butcher
shop you see ehows carcasses hung
up the same as we hang up the car
casses of pigs The flesh is white
White
Yes like veal The Chinese raise
chows for food and feed them only
soft washy stuff mashed vegetables
and bread and milk No meat what
ever Hence the white flesh
Notice Wus black tongue Well
chow tongue is a Chinese delicacy
They make soup of it But it is very
expensive like our turtle soup and it
is only eaten by the rich
Isnt it strange that a dog so fash
ionable with us should be only an arti
cle of food in China

To the Editor
Dear Sir
I came to this country from the
State of Wisconsin three years ago
and must say that I am greatly pleased
with the outlook in this western coun
try For my own part I am entirely
satisfied with the progress I have
made since coming here I have raised
excellent crops of grain of all varie
ties Last season my wheat averaged
23 bushels of wheat to the acre oats
60 and barley 40
We had a splendid garden this year
ripening successfully tomatoes musk
melons water melons sweet corn and
kindred sorts
The country is well adapted to
wheat growing and mixed farming and
to my mind it is the best country un
der the sun for a man with a family
and small means as it is possible for
a man to commence farming opera
tions with much less capital than is
required in the older settled countries
The climate is all that could be de
sired being very healthy and invigor
ating
My wife came out about six months
ago and although inclined to be deli
cate in the old home she has enjoyed
the best of health since coming here
In short I am more than satisfied
77ith the land of my aabption and I
am also satisfied with the laws of the
country
Yours very truly

manner When they see their covered
way approaching a building they drop
a train of syrup from this way to tho

till they reach the termite passage
They return to their nest and in a
few hours a black army starts out for
the white ant stronghold With great
fury they rush into the galleries and
in a short time entirely destroy the
enemy and each one on its way

On this particular occasion a pack
of foxhounds was heard in full cry
just as the horses from Congleton
were freed from the coach and they
started off with the harness on their

finish One of them a blood mare
stuck close to the whipper in and took
every jump after him through the two
hours And in the evening they took
the return coach to Congleton as mer
rily as if they had been in tho stable
all the time
Laundry worlc at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used In order to get the
desired stiffness it is usually neces
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness which not only destroys the
appearance but also affects the wear
ing quality of the goods This trouble
can be entirely overcome by using De

much more thinly because of its great

HEALTH OF WOMEN
In this nineteenth century to keep
up with the march of progress every
power of woman is strained to its
utmost and tho tax upon her physi
cal system is far greater than ever
In the good old fashioned days of
our grandmothers few drugs were
used in medicines They relied upon
roots and herbs to cure weaknesses
and disease and their knowledge of
roots and herbs was far greater
than that of women today
It was in this study of roots and
herbs that Lydia E Pinkham of
Lynn Mass discovered and gave
to the women of the world a remedy
more potent and efficacious than
any combination of drugs
Lydia E Pinkhams Vegetable Compound
is an honest tried and true remedy of unquestionable therapeutic value
This medicine made from native roots and herbs contains no narcotics
or other harmful drugs and today holds the record for the largestnumbcr
of actual cures of female diseases of any medicine tho world has ever
known and thousands of voluntary testimonials aro on file in tho
laboratory at Lynn Mass which testify to its wonderful value
Mrs C E Fink of Carnegie Pa writes Dear Mrs Pinkham I
wish every suffering woman would take Lydia E Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound and write to you for advice It has done me a world of good
and what it has accomplished for me I know it will do for others
When women are troubled with Irregularities Displacements Ulcer
ation Inflammation Backache Nervous Prostration they should re
member there is one tried and true remedy Lydia E Pinkhams Vege
table Compound
Mrs Pinkhams Standing Invitation to Women
Women suffering from any form of female weakness aro invited to
write Mrs Pinkham at Lynn Mass Out of her vast volnmo of ex
perience she probably has the very knowledge that will help your case
ersonal Knowledge
Personal knowledge is the winning factor in the cidminating contests of
this competitive age and when of ample character it places its fortunate
possessor in the front ranks of
The Well Informed of the World
A vast fund of personal knowledge is really essential to the achievement of the
highest excellence in any field of human effort
A Knowledge of Forms Knowledge of Functions and Knowl
edge of Products are all of the utmost value and in questions of life and health
when a true and wholesome remedy is desired it should be remembered that Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of Senna manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co is an
ethical product which has met with the approval of the most eminent physicians and
gives universal satisfaction because it is a remedy of
Known Quality Known Excellence and Known Component J
Parts and has won the valuable patronage of millions of the Well Informed of the
world who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual use that it is the first
and best of family laxatives for which no extravagant or unreasonable claims are made
This valuable remedy has been long and favorably known
under the name of Syrup of Figs and has attained to world
wide acceptance as the most excellent family laxative As its pure
laxative principles obtained from Senna are well known to physicians
and the Well Informed of the world to be the best we have
adopted the more elaborate name of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of Senna as more fully descriptive of the remedy
but doubtless it will always be called for by the shorter
name of Syrup of Figs and to get its beneficial
effects always note when purchasing the full
name of the Company California Fig Syrup
