Too bad, too bad! The Judge has fall
en from his good resolutions and gone
back into the same condition from which
he did seem to be trying to lift himself.
His desire to abuse some one has proven
stronger than his will to do right, and

Next Saturday evening there will be a

Some Teg Moines young ladies have
been called upon to contribute "patches"
to an autograph quilt, which is now the

friends far and near, together with em
broidery silk or cotton, with, the request
that they embroider their names on the
pieces and return them. It k very easy
to comply with the request, as nothing
but ti e skill to embroider and a little

What a Baby Can do.
"Mothers will be interested in tle fol
lowing list of tilings a baby can do,
says the author of "How to 1 Happy
Though Married,'' in his new book, "The
Five Talents of Women," just published
by the Scribners. loubtless
mother could add many items to it:
"A baby can beat any alarm dock evj
er invented waking a family up in the
morning.
"Give it a chance and it can smash
more dishes than the most industrious
servant girl in the country.
'It can fall down oftener and with less
provocation than the most expert tumb
ler in the circus ring.
"Jt can make more genuine fuss over
a simple brass pin than its mother would
over a broken neck.
'Jt can choke itself black in the face
with greater ease tlian the most accom
plished wretch that was ever executed.
" t can keep a family in constant tur
moil from morning till night, and night
til) morning without once varying its
tune. ,
t can be relied upon to sleep peace
fully all day when its father is away at
business and cry persistently at night
when he is particularly sleepy.
'.t may be the naughtiest, dirtyest,
ugliest, most fretful baby in all the
world, but you can never make its moth
er believe it, and you hud better not try.
'.t can be a charming and model in
fant when no one is around; but when
visiters are present it can exhibit more
bad temper than both of its parents together.
,t can. brighten up a house better i
than all the furniture ever made; make !
sweeter music than the finest orchestra
organized; till a larger place in its par
ents' breast than they knew they had,
and when it goes away it can cause a
greater vacancy and leave a greater!
