VERY LIKE MOST MOTHERS
Mrt. Rlpplt at First Could & Vry
Little In Girl Her Son Had
Chosen for Wife.
Tours apo, when the Ulllows were
trying to keep Dora from marrying
Nath nlel Hippie, Mrs. Klpple was try.
Ing to keep Xnthnniel from marrying
rvira. The Itillnwe didn't think much
of the Hippie family, Clnude I'allan
writes In Kansas City Star. In fact,
they told Dora that If Mie took Na
thaniel Flie would be marrying be
neath herself.
Mrs. Klpple didn't know that tht
Billow considered themselves hotter
than the Hippies, so he was not nntirj
at the fnniily. And she Hed Porn.
"I think Dora U a gow, aweet
plrl," she said to her son, "hut any
body can look at her and tell Fhe Isn't
able to do a day's work.
"You can do as you please, but If 1
were you I never would marry a deli
cate girl like Dora. I know how much
work a woman has to do In a home and
know that Dora Billow can't do It.
tf you were able to hire help It would
be all right Your poor old mother
never haa had any help, but I would be
glad for my eons' wives to keep help
If my pons could afford It
"Now, as I said, I haven't a word to
cay against Dora, but If I were you
and wanted to marry I would find a
girl strong enough to make a pood
wife. It Is nice to be pretty. Your
papa will tell you that I was pretty
when I married him, but beauty counts
for very little If a woman Is too weak
to do her work.
"Just look at your Cousin Henry's
wife. She Is sick half the time, and
that poor boy has to spend every dol
lar he makes. If Nora had been a big,
strong woman, who could have helped
him, he would be well fixed today."
After listening to this talk Nathaniel
married Dora and In about a month
his mother visited them. When she
returned home she said to Mr. Rippta:
"I think Nathaniel married mighty
well. That little girl hnd all the
clothes on the line when Igot there,
and they were as pretty and whlre as
you ever saw. I said from the very
beginning that Dora would make Na
thaniel ft good wife."
The German Way.
I remember one day having passed
through a small farming village very
badly burned and shattered, not by
shells, but by explosions from Inside
the houses. I was just about to ask
my oflicer why this village had been
bo punished, when, as we came outside,
my attention was attracted to a con
spicuous little flat-topped hjll, with its
level summit quite clear of the low
woods that covered the hill's sides. The
top had been cleared and smoothed
so that It could be planted in grain,
and It stood out a vivid and beautiful
green, In contrast with the dark tree
covered slopes. I spoke of the hill
and its conspicuous top to raj officer.
"Yes," he replied angrily, "the last
French spy to be landed from an air
plane was put down right here on that
flat top. We could not catch him.
We think he hid in this village."
My unuttered question about the
village was already answered. 'Vernon
Eellcgg In Atlantic.
What has become of the old fash
ioned kids and their May baskets?
They forgot us this year.
In one of the department stores
they are mighty proud of one of their
boys who Is Just back from "over
there," "You are rated as one of the
best fighters In your regiment" one
of the bunch remarked, and asked,
"How did you do It? "Well," said
the returned hero, "every time I.
went after the Germans I imagined
that they were some of the Insolent
customers I had to wait on here and
yet couldn't answer bark. The rest
was easy."
The home was on Are, and as the
staircase was In flames before the
blare was discovered the occupants
had to seek other means of escape.
Next day the companion to an elder
ly lady was reading to her the news
paper report of the fire, which slated
that one servant escaped down th
water-pipe at the back of the house.
Whereupon, the old lady, astonished
at this statement exclaimed: "But
how ihin the poor man must have
been."
