it'a all about the tariff question. Wi loved
that dear old tariff becauae.lt gave ua tha
full dinner pall. And wa Just overlooked It
and forgot It a few deoadea. But when we
found aforesaid T. r. pall was full of air
I we resumed Interest In the tariff question.
p"There was the choice of approaching It
' boldly and taklag It by the home, with a
chance of being bunted by same, or going
around, coming up through A tunnel and
sprinkling a Mtlo salt on Its tall. That's
what the present Idea Is all about.

and dimes that the butcher and grocer
stick you with occasionally, and then you
can't work them off until you tip some poor
waitress who hasn't any better facilities
of getting rid of them than you had. That's
Canada a principal Importation funny
money. " Maybe reciprocity meana that
Canadian dimes will be worth full face
value at the stores here, I dunno.
"Of course, you probably think It means
that when we want to trade a large chunk
of an American fortune for an English
lord he haa got to come Into this country by
' way of Canada. But, no. There Is no
tariff on the Importation of titles; they
come In duty free, the prospective father-in-law
attending to all the social duties.
Also, you may think that the principal
crops rained on Canada's broad acres con
sist of snow. Again you err. They raise
such elegant and tantalizing names as
Saskatchewan and Athabasca, to aay noth
ing of Banff. In case of reciprocity, we will
have to learn to pronounce- them all. which
la one of the hardships of a democratic
victory.". "
"I don't think I quite understand yet,"
faltered Friend Wife.
"Now, Isn't that Just Ilka a woman?"

Swam Five Hours in Ocean
Another of those, wonderful atorlea sup
plied by the aea la reported, In which the
hero Is a Danti.h sailor of remarkable
strength and endurance. "
The steamship Milton recently arrived at
Boston, when Its master, Captain Egan,
reported that a Danish seaman, named
Hendrtck Anderson of Copenhagen, whom
he shipped at Buenoa Ayres, had disap
peared early one morning while at aea.
A surprising and thrilling sequel has now
been brought to light. Captain R. C.
Toung, master of W. G. Morel A Co.'s
steamer, Nollaement, In a letter to his
owners, gives particulars of a ' strange
rescue at sea effected by his vessel when
outward bound to Buenos Ayres.'
One morning about :99 a. m., when the
steamer was about fifty 'miles from St.
Vincent, ha passed the steamer Milton
homeward bound from the Plat.' At :30
o'clock that morning the quartermaster re
ported that tie could see what looked like a
nan swimming ahead and making signals
V tha ship. The captain got hla glasses
mad out the figure of a man In the
water. Kvery now and then the awimmer
raised his arm and made frantic signals to
the steamer. The vessel's course wsa al
tered and t: man picked pu. He had been
In the water for five and a half hours, and
waa almost exhausted.
Of Danish nationality and 22 years of
age, the rescued man could not akeak Eng
lish, but ' on board the Nollaement there
was a man who was able to Interpret his
storr.
The Dane elated that he i a seaman
6n 'board the Mlltort. "At V o'clock that
morning he wax Bitting on the vessel's rail
when the ship gave a audden roll and he
was thrown overboard. lila disappearance
wa evidently not noticed.. He saw the
Milton disappear In the distance.. He
started swimming ateadiiy in the hope that
he would be picked up, though his greatest
fear was of sharks, snd more than once
one of these monsters came close to him
and was only scared away by vigorous
splashing.
The rescued Dane Is a msn of great
physical strength.

iiKisses Not Good Pay
-J
A report . sent.. CUL. from Kimball, Neb,,
says a Justice) of the peace there, has held
that milking tha cows and feeding the cat
tle la no part of a woman's domestic duties.
Ha has alao held that if a husband compela
and foroea hla wife to do this work, she Is
-.titled to. the same compensation aa s.
hired roan.-, He haa alao held that a hus
band cannot, prove an offset by alleglnii
love and affection, accompanied by ktxseii,
hla opinion- Welng that klasea In a case of
this kind have no merchantable value.
The couple In question were married three
years ago and went to Banner county to re
side, settllug on a homestead a few miles
from Kimball. They got along nicely until
this winter, when the husband concluded,
though In perfect health, that his wife
ought to do the milking and feed the cattle.
ha protested, contending that, she did not
marry In order to have an opportunity of
doing farm labor, Baying that If she wanted
to do this class of work, she would don
trousers and do - a man'a work and get a
man'a pay, Inatead of a bare living and a
few cheap clothes.
There waa discord at once and the wife
went before a Justice, who issued a war
rent. At the hearing the husband wa
placed under bonds to keep the peace. He
admitted that he had compelled, his wife
to do manual labor on the ranch snd about
the barn, but pleaded In extenuation that
after the marriage, the wife promised to
take up thla part of his duties If he would
kiss her every morning and again every
night. He testified that he had kept hla
part or the contract, but the wife had
failed, she hsving refused to accept his
kWse.
The court held that under the- clrcum
xtancea the kisses were valueless and that
the wife was not bound to receive them,
they not being In good faith.

"THE MOST AW FUL. KURT."
fended, I raised my voice. I can raise It a
good deal. Nothing happened, however, so
I went downstairs and found one of the
Hibernians Cousin Anne employ playing
with a camembert cheese In the pantry. I
raid: "I've been calling and ringing and
no one came." She said: "Aw, did yes
call?"
I aaid: "Didn't anybody hear the bell?"
Phe said. "Sure I thought It was the base
ment bell. Did yes ring?" I said yes, but
only for the exercise. Aa her hands were
rert of camemhert cheesy. I decided to me
ander along and try something else. I
went down to the kitchen and found it per
fectly empty. I listened. I would have put
my ear to the ground in a moment.. But 1
heard sounds from the billiard room, which
is on the basement floor. I went in, cough
ing loudly. The cook was theYe with the
grocer's man. -j
She was toying with some onions and he
was gaxing at her In the most adoring
way. I felt frightfully de trop,. but. I .was
desperate by that time and -had to' have
something done. I simply hated to break
up the tete-a-tete, as It's a' thing I make a
point of never doing. , . , .
If they had been playing pool I' wouldn't
have minded so much. He grabbed up a
big basket and started to go. but I said:
"Oh, please don't run away; I'll only keep
her a moment, I promise you." He looked
sort of embarrassed and I aked him If he
played pool. He looked awfully bored at
the suggestion, so I asked him how much
pineapples were that day and If potatoes
had gone up.
iAicklly, my dress was fastened by that
time, and I could leave them to themselves.
I think I wa frightfully oniony the rest of
the afternoon, though Agnes . swore she
didn't notice it.
We had gone to a wedding and I found
to my Joy when we reached the church that
I was down on the list that Batty Morris
had in his hand. He came tearing down
the aisle bursting with Importance and still
sort of daaed from the ushers' dinner.
Agnes' name wasn't down at all.. She said
she wished she had aent a wedding present
now, as she had heard the reception was
going to be rather fine.. Ague is getting
so hardened. The church looked lovely, and
Mr. Hallens was one of the ushers. He
came and leaned over our pew and said
how well I was looking. He certainly Is
the most awful flirt. Utlith Gaylord came
In and walked away ap to the front of the
church. Heavens, t'ie way that girt makes
up! I couldn't get over it and neither could
Agnes. She told me hot to repeat it, as
he had been r.sked by several people not
to, but It was undoubtedly true that Edith
drank. She oaid: "Why, my dear, couldn't
you see she was under the Influence as she
walked up the aisle Just then?" I said I

Getting Even With Himself
-J
Burton was an old-time southern book
maker, says the New Turk Hun, who had
a prejudice against Bendlgo, when that
great horse waa dangeroua In any race.
On one occasion a horseman who knew
Burton's - weakness came along after the
betting had been going on for some time
and called to him that he was out of line
on his price on Bendlgo.
"Huh! Think so?" said Burton In reply.
"Why don't you take some of It, then?"
"Well, I will," was the rejoinder; "put
me twenty-five each way.''
' " Twenty-five hundred dollars to $25 and
$1,000 to $25,' sang out Burton. 'That'll do
for supper money,' he called Burton after
tha horseman as he walked away.
" 'Yes, for me," was the horseman's reply.
The man had really tried to do the book
maker a favor, and he was hurt at the
manner In which his overture had been
received.
Bendlgo didn't win the race, but he ran
second, and there, waa so much money on
him at 40 to 1 for the place that Burton
was $14,000 loser on the race. There was a
string of darkles fifty yards long with all
kinds of tickets, and mingled with them a
few sharpshooters, and well up In the line
was the horseman, who chaffed Burton
unmercifully about his supper money.
The bookmaker didn't have enough money
In his cash box to pay all the claims against
him and he was compelled to borrow from
one of his friends till tha nevt day. It
may be surmised that tha southern specu
lator was In no amiable mood when ha
started for town that evening.
He was a tremendous ester snd Ukd the
good things of the table as well as any
body I've ever known. This evening he
went to Delmonico's and ordered an' enib'
orate dinner, but the manner of service in- V
slsted upon startled the waiter who had
hla table. .
" 'Fetch it all at or,ce,'" Burton told the
puEiled waiter. , '
A quart of champagne was brought as
a final touch, and onlookers marvelled at
the spectacle of th big man who sat alone
at a table covered with food Including
everything from the oysters to the demi
tasse. Tucking his napkin under his chin
as was his custo'n, Burton said to himself :
"'You're pretty hungry.-aln't you? You
think you're going to eat that, don't you?
Well, you big at head, you're not,'" arid
calling for hln check he settled his bill,
handed .the waiter a liberal tip and left
him looking after him open 'mouthed.
"That was simply one of Burton's "ays
of punishing himself for his folly of ths
afternoon." said a friend.
Hooked by His Own Hot Air
"Did you ever stop to think of what goes
on here besides the regular work of the
shop?" the barber said to his customer as
h applied a Ci stall hot toad to his face.
fleet's have it, Tony, but that towel is
too hot," was the Invitation to go on with
ths story.
"Well, here's a sample," he began. "A
man came In here the other day and began
telling me how much the remark of one
of my customers cost him the week before.
He had come In for a hurry-up shave and
a friend of his came with him and waited.
The man waa a stock broker and his friend
was a prospective buyer. They were on
the way to his office, where a deal was
to be closed. While I was shaving my
man -another chap cams In and said to a
friend: 'So-and-Bo's going to drop tomor
row, and drop hard. That was enough.
The prospective Investor didn't know the
stranger, but his remark was enough to
give him a 'hunch.' The stock mentioned
was the same he was about to buy. The
deal waa off. All on account of the ahave
the broker thought he wanted at that time,
see?
"That's the sort of thing that happens
here every day, I suppose, only we don't
hear about It all the time, it ain't all
serious stuff like thai, eiilief," be went
on. "Here's a sample of the queer stuff.
It keeps me laughing some days from
morning till night to hear some of ths
dope that's sloughed off here. Regular lit
tle comedy shop! .... . , t
"The manager -of a prUy big. theater
here was In my chair blng"flxed uu. ' I
had a towel on his face and anyone 'Coming
In could not tell who he was. A friend of
hla came In and before I noticed hi in he
began telling me what a, bum show the
manager had that week. ' He had been
there the night before. The manager hnd
given him some passes and he had taken
his wife. 'Kottenest show he ever had
on the bills.' he waa saying. 'Perfectly
poor!' And there the manager was In the
chair. But he never said a word. Sore?
I guess. Ths newcomer went on, still not
wise: 'I hate to see It again, but I've
got to touch him for a fw more passes
tonight. I have some friends coming into
town. It's the only place I know where
I can shake down some free tickets.' Still
the manager kept mum. The man who
criticised tha show left his hat to keep
his turn and said he'd be back. When he
returned ht other one had gone."
"I guess he didn't go to sea the show
on any more free passes from that man
ager, eh?" grinned the man who now had
a clean shave and turned to leave tho
shop. Chicago News.

Woman's Voice
J
There Is a witchery In a Woman's voice
capalbe of confounding, conjuring and con
verting the world.
One often thinks that Esther, pleading
for her people, had more melody and feel
ing In her voice than beauty of body; that
Mary, denying her eager lover alnce her
heart waa filled with a strange new
thought, must have spoken heavenly
Bounds; that Portia's "equality of mercy"
muat have fallen on the hearts of her
hearers "as ths gentle rain from heaven
upon the place beneath."
An example of the educated and pre
served voice is that of the great Bern
hardt a woman nearly 70 years of ags.
At times hsr limbs tremble with age. but
always her voice Is young. It pours forth
In a golden stream, tender, buoyant, allur
ing, gay. It swells with passionate deapalr
and rage. It sobs with grief, but always
It Is young. It holds Its h Mirers fascinated.
Herauae tbe voice Is the moat enduring
of a woman' charm It ahould receive
much more rare than Is bestowed upon It.

feeling. 8he may talk much or little, but If
she talks beautifully her language will

cool, sweet water to lips parched with
fever.
