"He got a darning hi," retorts! the
Tired Hu.ia. ,, Man. "Whil'i the uw of

darning egg In tha sock and beat It?"
"If the men understood positively In ad

own darning and other mild profanity
there would be a marked decline In matri

What I mean In that men could mas
ter sockology if they had to. and do It
Hter than the women, too. Instead o'
the kIo device of darning up a ragged
rent In the toe, aa la the present antiquated
method, a man would tie a string above
ha torn part and then cut off the late site.
'"Why. look at the advertisements of socks

tha husband's socks from wearing out?
Could the learned Judge repair the damage?
Remember, It la easier for a toe to pass
through a. hole In a sock than for a rich
man to pass through the eye of a darnlnff
needle, which Is blind, like Justice.
"I'm not up on law. but when It comes to

A letter In the New York. Sun from
Med ford. L, I., tells of a woman who ought
to ba able to tell Madame Curia bow to
break Into tha French academy against
all odds. Mrs, BUaa Cornellum, HI Cor
nellum'a wife, who has shared Ms triumphs
and adversities In the peddling business,
who has picked Si's huckleberries and
raised his children and mada a home for
Mm and mended Ms swallow-tall coat,
which ha wears to Riverhead when sum
moned to be a Juror, . Mrs. Cornellum, who
has dona all theaa things and many others,
unwept, unbonored and unsung, has auo
.ceeded In getting Into tba local barrelhead
academy which la In session every day
but Sunday In tha stora and postotfica
here. . . . .
Mrs. Cornellum didn't attain this signal
triumph for womankind without a atruggle.
The barrelhead academy did not want her
and public opinion In Medford baa strongly
condemned soma of the methods she has
resorted to, auch aa refusing to get SI any
supper unless ba did a dajr'a work, and beat
ing him with a broom on two occasions, so
that bis feelings wera lacerated and con
tused and hia spirit was internally Injured.
Mrs. Cornellum says that these harsh
Methods were Inevitable; that In no other
way could aha have established woman's
right .than by exercising them.
All tbosa who met at tba Medford store
and poalufflce read tha city papers, and
so when soma on who had read Mms.
Curia's defeat apoka of tha French academy
and said that Medford ought to have an
academy, particularly In vlaw of tba fact
that tha JCqual Franchise league has a
branch la Palcbogue, every one In the
store that morning agreed that to form
an academy would be a fine thing. The
notion was made a motion and carried
without a dissenting voice. .
Mrs. Cornellum did not hear of the new
Institution until SI came home to dinner.
II bad a tine appetite and aa he ale the
cabbage ebe bad cooked au gratln he told
ber with pardonable pride of the new
rank he had., lie was to be secretary of
tha academy.
"And keep the hour of each meeting T"
said Mrs. Cornellum.
"Ha. bal That'a agood 'un. You mean
the minutes of each meeting. Ha, ha!"
said 81, who had often said that hi do
mestic happinesa was bait of it due to
bis ability to appreciate his wife, to sym
pathy with her, to feel with her, aa it
ere.
"No. the hour, of the meeting." replied
Mrs. Cornellum, shortly.
"Well. I keep good hours, don't I?" her
hsuband asked. ,
"I shouldn't say that." his wife re
marked. "You spend good hours loafing
In the store and postotflce when you
ought to be working to support your
eeamtly."
After dinner 61 stretched himself and
observed In his customary way:
"Well, guess I'll go over to the store 'n
see If there's any mall."
Mr. Cornellum looked hlra square In the
e and aald:
"If you do you'll find no aupper waiting

"Darning nocks is one home Job which

his wife had not got up and made a fire.
He had to do It himself. When he had
she cooked his breakfast After breakfast
he felt better and went over to the stora
Mrs. Cornellum went. too.
Bhe stayed there ail morning and gos
siped with the academicians as they came
In and lingered. 1 was greatly Upset. Mr.
Cornelium was calm throughout..- Khe
went home with El at noon, but dinner was
not ready till z o'clock. The village by
that time was pretty well scandalised..
This kept up for two days. In That
time Mrs. Cornelium lost her composure
twice and whacked her husband with a
broom. A both assaults were committed
at home with no witnesses 81 had no re
dress. On the third day be gave In and
stayed at home to work in- the woodshed.
The fourth day he could not refrain from
visiting the store. Mrs. Cornelium said
nothing, but went along and stayed all
morning wath him. In the afternoon te
did some more work In the woodshed.
They argued all day Sunday and by
Monday had reached a compromise. SI wa
to have a couple of mornings to spend In
the store. The rest of the time he wa to
work. Mr. Cornellum was to go to the
sewing circle and the Phoebe oclety two
afternoons. These terms were to be en
forced at any time by strike or lockout
by either.'
It waa suggested to Si that he could get
better terms by Imposing his presence a
few times on the sewing circle and the
I'hoebe society, but his spirit unfortunately
wa already broken and be couid not nerve

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Feb. 23. - (Spe
cial By Courtesy of the B. &
M. Brakeman.) We are mak
ing progress; a couple of year
ago a governor of Nebraska
expressed doubts a to his
rlnht under the law to accept
rent free the mansion provided
by the state. Now an ap
propriation bill Is reported In
which Is a "new Item" of :..Vit)
to pay servants of the gov
ernor's family at the mansion.
As the governor gets but ai.Sut)
a year under the constitution,
which says he shall have no
more In the way of emulu
ments or perquisites! this
shows how fast we are getting
on.
Another blow ha been struck
at the colonels. A bill has
been introduced which will
hold 'em down to even lower
titles. This serves them right.
If they had gotten together In
the organization for mutual In
terest and protection, as out
lined by The Bumble Bee
weeks ago. they might not
now be subject to this unrea
sonable raid on the part of
Jealous members who can
never be called anything but
"Hon." In their after lives,
I wss pleased to note that
the Lincoln Commercial club
avowed that something existed
In the way of a state supported
Institution the Uncoln eople
do not want. It happened to
Oe something they couldn't get.
and yet the admission la a
signlflcane one. It was the
Omaha Medical college, which
Is about aa likely to be re
moved to Lincoln as la the
Missouri river bridge
I am told tm It la still pos
sible to get i. (or It Is pos
sible to get it still) In -Lincoln.
No one KTin to know
wkare it comeVj-om, but every
now and then the Holy City la
shocked by .oe appearance of
seme unregenerate cuss who
gives every outaard and visible
evidence of having obtained It
somewhere.
Halt the session has slipped
away, but half tbe work is
not vet done. This fact la be
ginning to augseet Itseif to
the members, and frem now
on the wheels will go around a
little faster than they have.
The oratory that Jarred the
