harms. Undoubtedly many youths
h were not brought up to swear do
i-.vear U'cw and then under provocation,
but there is. all things considered, an
Increasing respect for the English lan
gimse. Plainsmen on Western cattle ranches
have called attention to a new illus
tration of the adaptability of animal In-stln-'t
to emergencies. The cattle of
former d,iys were of the long-honied
kind. When the herd was threatened
with an attack by wolves, the calves
were placed in the middle of the
bunch, and the older animals formed
themselves Into a solid phalanx about
them, all facing outward. The cattle
of today are largely hornless. If, as
iKcaslonally happens still, the herd Is
attacked by wolves, tbe calves are
guarded as before, bnt the herd faces
in Instead of out Tbefr hoofs, not
their horns, are now their weapons.
"The average woman" does not
sound like a phrase of high compli

doubtless the most needed woman In
modern civilization. It Is interesting

lovable than three hundred years ago.
Her advance Is somewhat do to tbe
work of those few leaders who make
new paths, and encourage more timid
pools to follow them. Bat for tbe most

Of all the exhibits of the early yeai
none is more imposing nor of wider in
terest than that of the life insurance
organizations. These annual showings
of what life Insurance really is. what it
means, how it stands and what it 1?
doing are the source of attention aud
pride to hundreds of thousauds of fam
ilies directly Interested in the state
ments in question. Great arrays of
figures, remarkable lists of resjionsl
tie managerial names and high official
indorsements of the grand total foot
ings characterize the tabulated (.tate
ments. while sound logic and good,
vigorous English are features of thosa
which have assertions or arguments to
present They tell of a remarkable
yearly nory of protection to the fam
ily; of vast sums disbursed jut at th
time when the heart is heaviest and
the brsin nwist distraught; of the alle
viation of distress to bereaved hornet
ami of comfort to advancing age. They
show how mighty are the sums yet to
be distributed and the certainty ot
their distribution as soon as due.
Whatever else happens In the realm of
business and nnam-e, it seems to be
certain that men are determined to In
sure their live. This Is something
they are doing in and out of season
and. Iliouli their fellows are of course,
dying day by d;ty, the growth of the
companies continues and the new In
tuiants are ever greater lu number
than those who pass from the Bcene.
Congress virtually decides each yeni
what the salaries of the government
orhecrs shall 1m?. Tew matters require
more care tuna the adjustment of
these salaries In the appropriation
Vilis. If they are made go low that no
rnnn without independent means enn
afford to take a public position, only
the rich will be officeholders. Mem
bers of the British Parliament sen
without pay. but to apply that system
in this country would necessarily de
prive Congress of much of its liest ma
terial. On the other band, salaries
which are too Iarjre become prizes fur
persons looking only at the pecuniary
inducement. I'ncle Sam has accord
ingly adopted a compromise policy. lb;
underpay the occupants of his uiom
resio isible positions; he overpays tin
lower grades. The supervising archi
tect's salary would be small return for
an architect of the same rank In New
York or Chicago. The routine clerical
work In his ollice is better rewarded
than similar service In private estab
lishments. Although the public prop
erly objects to large salaries, it has.
never adopted the priuciple laid down
by a woman who wrote an open lettei
to the newspapers at the time a bill
for raising tbe Governor's salary wa
under discussion In the legislature o'
a certain State. She asked if tbe Statf
had found difficulty In getting men bi
take the place at the existing compen
sation. Until there was some trouble
on this score she saw no occasion foi
a change. In private life we rarely
hire tbe cheapest person we cau get
whether It be to whitewash a fene
or to set a broken leg. There are joiih
curious anomalies In government sal
aries. The subtreasurer at New Yorl
has a larger salary than the treaaurci
a Washington; ee'lecters of cu"!on
in the great cities receive more that
the Secretary of the Treasury; Import
ant consuls more than the Secretary o;
State, who usually selects them. Sucl
facts as these emphasize the fact tha
the government officer is the servau
not of his immediate superior, but o;
tbe whole people.

Kidney Pills must not be confounded
with the ordinary patent medicine
They are a new discovery, a specific
fur all diseases of the Kidneys and
kave been accepted by physicians only
ifter careful tests in extreme cases.
Dr. Leland Williamson, of this place,
beartlly endorses liodd's Kidney Pills
"as a remedy for the various forms of
tbe diseases of the Kidneys, palus lu
the back, soreness in the region of the
Kidneys, foul-smelling urine and
rloudy or thickened conditions of the
urine, discharges of pus or corruption,
Cotit. Rheumatism, Inflammation aud
Congestion of the Kidneys and all kin
Ired comiilaints." Continuing he says:
"I could mention many cases lu
ivhlcb I have prescribed Iodd's Kidney
Pills with success. For instance, Mr.
Itobeit Weeks, farmer, malaria hueiaa
turla or swamp fever three times, kid
ueys weakened, continual pain and
loreness in back, which made him very
nervous, had a little fever and some
times chilly. Urine changeable, but
generally very bigh--o!orcd, an old
t-bronlc case who had taken much med-
l.-ine with little effect. After taking
lodd' Kidney Pills about six weeks
l e wa entirely cured and bfld gained
fifteen pounds in weight. The lu-l
time I saw him he was tbo picture of
perfect manhood.

ON A RANCH

A newspaper woman went out to a
Colorado ranch to rest and recuperet
and her experience with the food prob

'The woman at the ranch was pre

"One day I obtained permission to go

across a package of Grape Nuts which
I had heard of but never tried. I read

Women Arc Nnt Eitriaitant.
One is constantly hearing aud read
ing of the eitravagaut follies of wo
men, but there is seldom anything said
ff the wastefulness of the oppo-ite
x-x. Of -oure. everyone knows then'
is extravagance in both sexes, but the
women are not reiMilbl for tbe ei-
Iravagaut men. while tbe men are re
Hnsible for the extraagant women.
Women, as a class, not la-lug wage
earners, have not tbe same reason for
appreciating the value of money as
men.
Husbands and fathers, as a rule, are
either ery siinny or fail to let their
womenfolk know their real financial
condition. In the first case, a woman
naturally attributes tbe doling out of
money to her a pure selfishness or lack
of regard, and takes a natural delight
In extracting and spending all she can.
In tbe second she had no reason
lo think the man "can't a (lord if or
realize tbiit economy Is necessary: In
either case it Is the mm, not the
woman, who is to blame. The major
ity of women are certainly not estntv-
g.int, declines a writer It) The House
keeper. The reports show that there
tin- more women depositor In tbe sav
ings banks than men. and they are
tlowcr In withdrawing their Ktvings.
I ml the man's "bargain counter" Joke,
Pi'Jl Its odd cent price, js conclusive
evidence1 of woman's regard for the
penny.
R?ery man knows tbat a woman Is
tetter ami closer at making n bargain
than he is. The woman's mind is eon-
M! tuted to consider trifles and it is
Ir fl s that count In economy. The av
erage woman can get n ong on less anil
make an appearance" than tbe bmt
ge man can. I have never met n man
yt-t wlio stintiii iimiveir on cigars or
bis stomach or his neckties, but if the
woman wants n new MS cent shirtwaist
this mini will want to know what she
has ih ne with the one he bought two

"Don't feed . the baby with adilit
food. (living the child this sort of
nourishment too early produces soft
bones and hen-e the host of bowlegged
and knock-kneed youngsters."
Don't liox the baby's ears. You are
liable to render it permanently def.
In fact, consider well lief ore you chas
tise the child, aim It Is itilte easy
to use the rod and sxll the child.
The weight of a growing child is the
most oiinsi Uiui ,,:..cx c: its generH!
health. The standard weight for grow
ing children usually given by authori
ties In the matter Is that at 5 years
of age a child should weigh as many
pounds as it is Inches high. As n rule
this will not le much over or under
forty iHiunds. Children who come of
large parents should weigh something
more than that. The rate of Increase
should be about two pounds for every
Inch of growth, with a tendency for
the weight to ex freed this -tanclard
rather than to fall In-low It. When a
child Is heavier in proportion to its
height than this standard. It is a sign
of good health. If the chlM Is growing
rapidly, it should not be allowed to fall
much below It wit bout lielng made to
rest more than has Is-en the custom. A
deficiency of weight In proportion to
height is always an unfavorable sign.
Any Interruption In the progress of In
crease of weight, especially while
growth continues. Is a danger signal
that should not le neglected by those
Interested In the child.
