'lVaintaid ij Begin Task Early w,t - ar*Hh » -jrj g~y j r h -Be Courageous ftlUSDana Philosophic By MRS. LEONARD MARSHALL. 11 I'SBANDS are what we make them. If a husband is proper]}' XJf trained in the way lie should go, he will become quite an en durable male specimen of humanity. The great point is to start from the first. Unfortunately, »the young wife is fond and foolish, and the moon of honey is very sweet. Edwin is such a darling just at the outset that she is blind to all the faults which art; going to make her i life miserable later on. If Angelina knew, she would treat ■ her dear lord like an antagonist; she would lay in wait for the opportune moment to come, and pour balm over the wounds she had inflicted. No man loves the submissive slave. It is the struggle for the mastery, the taming of the tigress that charms him, for man is a born hunter, and the pursuit of the elusive prey is dearer to him than the dove that never will take wing! The husband spoiled in the first months of his married life rapidly liceontes demoralized. He is, metaphorically speaking, in slippers. He is a hero, too, for he knows how that little wife of his adores him ! Vanity (men are vain r than women) works havoc with his reason.

The remedy is the thin;;, an I it takes a d isc of courage and philoso phy to administer it. The first step is to be on the alert. The husband will presently be gin aliout the housewifely virtues of his sainted mother. She never al lowed her servant to leave a room dusty; her pie-crust, and so forth. IJo not, my dear woman, allow this secret sorrow to prey upon your soul. Tell him firmly that he can go home and eat his sainted mother's pie-crust, and that as to the dust, you will speak to the servant, and that is the best you can do! There may—there will be—a row, but stand your ground; your first battle is decisive. Use those subtle arts we are versed into make the man understand that women are feline—if you stroke the right way, life is harmonious; if not, the results are deplorable. Do not be too eternally sweet, neither should you smother him with "ducky dears.*' Blow hot and cold by turns, treat him to every caprice, keep him on the rack to know whet you will do next and he will adore you, because he will not have had the opportunity of developing those despotic instincts which arc growing in bis heart. He will come to you and tell you that he needs fresh air (you do not, of course), an | wave over two continents. it began with the Christ on Mount Olivet; in 10 days it World I numbered 15,000, in 100 jears a half mil lion, and now it rules the minds and ————— —_____ hearts of 000,000,000. So wonderful is By DR. NEWELL DWIGHT HILLIS Illc tll " t v, ' e ( ' ast «bout for a cause equally powerful. The proverb runs, no —gulden conduct from leaden motives. Once Philistinism offered men the ethics of mud; the old world philosophies offered leaden motive and iron penalties; occasional teachers, like Buddha, spoke with a silver tone, but golden con duct began with the golden rule. That law of love that fell from Christ's lips, was interpreted bv Christ's life, enforced by his death, and made powerful by his living presence, alone can furnish an adequate explanation of the victories of Christianity. Now, despite the pessimism of some in high places, many of our greatest industrial leaders are making the law of Christ to he the golden reed with which they are laying out their lives. Let us believe that our brother men are just as anxious to fulfill ihe law of Christ as you and I are, and are more successful in their plans. Despite what has been said, inost lawyers arc not the hired tools of evil clients. Most of the industrial leaders are not corrupt grafters. One swallow does not make a spring—no—that is true; but neither does one rod bough fhowing disease in the leaf in .June argue winter on a summer's day. Last week 1 read the account ot a meeting of the directors of a railroad system. Those rich men decided not to reduce the wages of the engineers, con ductors, switchmen, flagmen, but chose rather to cut the dividends on their stock to three per cent. One of the most terrible railroad strikes ever precipitated in this country was due to the fact that in 1S!):5 a railway magnate in the time of panic cut the wages of his workmen a third at a single stroke, while he insisted that his dividends should remain at ten per cent. Capital was every- ' I:; ; ; • • : •!;! thing. Workmen, cold, hungry and starving, were • ' ''• nothing. The dollar must have its ten p< r cent.; the ; j'• KOUI can have what is left, if a crust remains. That ;.Y I selfishness of capitalistic leaders is passir.g as surelv !

SIN IN AERIAL CRAFT. "Boy Mayor" of Milwaukee Will Keep Up Reputation for Being Odd in Race for Governorship of the State. Milwaukee, Wis. Sherburn M. Becker, the "boy" mayor of Milwau kee, who, having been successful in conducting his campaign for mayor from an automobile, has now decided to enter the race for governoship of Wisconsin, and will use a balloon this time for campaign purposes. Becker was only 29 years of age when elected mayor of Milwaukee two years ago after a whirlwind campaign. His rac« for governorship promises to be equal' ly sensational. "I shall use either a duplicate o5 Maj. Hershey's United States, with which the American representative competed in the St. Louis balloon races," said ex-Mayor Becker in tell lirg of his plan to campaign from an airship, "or 1 shall buy the United States and rechristen it Wisconsin when I start to campaign the state. I am thoroughly in earnest in my plan to run for governor with a bal loon instead of a touring car as I at firr;t in', uled, anil i will r"n -ise tlio farmert, you bet. "You see, it's this w,iy. 't'ho peo ple up tho itate toad about v.iy way of doing things, and they simply cay: 'He's a crazy fool.' But they are on the watch just the -,ame. Then when .1 get to them I hand them solid com mon sense and politics straight with out any of the freak about it. "That's the way 1 am going to make the campaign this year. 1 will go up in a balloon and light when I feel like it.and it's a cinch that when we get to earth there'll be a crowd there to hear me speak. Then is when I'll get in my real work. They come to see the boy candidate, and they get sound common sense. The result is that they think the logic they hear is a heap better than it really is, because they expected something so much dif ferent. "Two years ago, when I beat Dave Hose lor mayor of Milwaukee, I was called the boy candidate, and even my friends thought I was a fool to enter the race. They first told me I couldn't get the nomination, but I fooled them, and then I won at the election. People came to hear me because my motto was"The Young Man in Politics,' and they went away having heard nothing more sensation al than any other campaigner would give them." That in brief, is the system under which Milwaukee's "Boy Mayor" works his campaigns. He turned from a cotillon leader to supervisor, and in the county board he exposed a print ing graft and saved the county $35,000 a year. He then decided to run for alderman, and his friends laughed at him. He was elected and made such a record that he was able to run for mayor and win that, too. His famous coffee automobile did much to help him in the city cam paign. When he was alderman he had one of his automobiles fitted up with a huge coffee pot, which he could start a-boiling when there was a fire, and the coffee would be hot when he reached the scene of the conflagra tion. Whenever there was a big fire he was notified and a quick hitch harness for a runabout, which he had at first adopted, was soon supplanted by the autmobile. In his city campaign he started a series of smokers, furnishing corncob pTpes and tobacco, and when he ad dressed a meeting he would, instead of standing on the platform, sit among the listeners and talk conversational ly. This won votes and he proposes to adopt the same tactics when he runs for governor. At Chicago recently he decided upon the balloon means of reaching the country districts. He met. C. A. Coey, an enthusiastic automobilist a«d aero naut, and arranged his plan for a bal loon campaign almost instantly. A Sweeping Assertion.

The reason why American garden ing has not yet come up to the stand ird of the Europeans is simply that we do not pay enough, says a w.jjter In Country Life in America. We ploy incompetent landscape designers or none; we beat the nurseryman down on his plants; we are not will ing to pay a first-class gardener what he is worth. Yet we are "dead game" when it conies to yachts, automobiles, horses, dogs and houses. Why should Qot our wealthy men be equally will ing to pay for good gardens? I believe they will. These things are all parts of the same outdoor life. The more self-respect a man has the more lie values his family life and the more willing he is to spend as much on his outdoor living room as on one of his indoor rooms The writer then describes a land scape garden in a Pittsburg back yard which cost about $7,000.

PERILOUS AUTO TRiP IN AFRICA OFFICER OF GERMAN ARMY TELLS OF HAZARDOUS EXPERI ENCE IN DARK CONTINENT. NEAR TO DEATH ON BRIDGE Mozambi River Is Crossed by Means of Shaky Structure Made by trie Natives of Sticks and Branches. London.—Lieut. Paul Graetz of the German army, who is crossing the heart of Africa from Dar-es-Salaam. on the east coast, io Swakopmund, on the west, is encountering formidable dif ficulties in the tropics. His last stage of 125 miles has occupied nine days. He describes the journey as follows: "Leaving Aborcorn, near the south ern end of Lake Tanganyika, we reached Kasama in nine days through the Chambezi valley. But we and our motor car have had togo through a horrible ordeal. We have faced fear ful trials and hardships under tropical rains; we have been delayed by racing streams and deep marshes. "We have had to croto 28 swollen r've-:> niirt swamps innumerable. We have traveled on bad wooden bridges built by the natives, and often wo have crossed over the wretched totter ing remnants of euch bridges. We have fought hard against flooding wa ters. "At first we journeyed through thick brush. Running and Jumping near our automobile, a number of Lo beba natives sing as they accompany us. Then a terrible thunderstorm bursts upon us in a fury, and streams of water pour down like huge water spouts. Now the underwood becomes lighter. Halt! Water! The Mozambi river is before us and rolls on its yel lowish course in the middle of a swampy depression 200 yards in breadth. "There is a kind of bridge over swamp and stream, and it zigzags like a gigantic centipede. The natives rush through the storm-beaten high grass and gather sticks and branches. They drag t.hem forth and build a small bridge way over the dangerous deep mire; we widen the existing narrow bridge and repair it as best we can. "Finally, after hours of strenuous work in pouring rain, we proceed. The car is pulled forward on the perilous Crossing Over the Tottering Rem nants of a Bridge. path; the driver grips the steering wheel with great steadiness. W«* tremble. What if the wheels skid on the slippery road? We are lost if the car moves only one hand's breadth to either side. We are lost if our hands or our nerves give way on these fear ful 200 yards. "The heavy car and ourselves would fall and disappear, without any possi bility of rescue, in the wild stream or in the soft, deep mud. The passage seems to last an eternity. Slowly we creep forward. "We are nearly on the ether side, when suddenly the car stops and is dragged backward. We all burst into a shriek of terror. We realize what has happened. The back wheels have sunk through a hole in the bridge. The front-wheels are lifted upward. But by a stroke of luck in the midst of our misfortunes the springs of the car have caught in the oblique planks of the bridge and it is wedged fast. "A fresh activity seizes us. We fasten a strong rope to the front part of the car. There is no time to waste. A catastrophe is still threatening us. The Lobelia natives are fetched back. The bridge is repaired after a mighty effort, and the natives slowly drag the car forward. The rescue is a suc cess. "The sun is now piercing through the gray clouds, and before our eyes gleams the fresh landscape. A few miles' drive and we come to another river. There are many dangers be fore us. Hidden in the tall giass are numberless bowlders, branches, roots and tree trunks. "Day after day the difficulties and obstacles increase, and we nearly lose the hope of ever reaching our goal. The car, however, has worked without one break down since we left Abor corn. At last we see, on the hiil in front of us, the village of Kasama, the buildings of the magistrate, and the African lake corporation, appearing aouv« the fci«en landscape." ill JAIL OVER YEAR, MAN IS FORGOTTEN NO RECORD OF HIS NAME, CRIME, COMMITMENT OR TRIAL CAN BE FOUND. Uniontown, Pa.—lt would seem it* credible that in this age a man could be imprisoned for more than a year in the jail of this county, in this town, not knowing himself the reason or cause of his imprisonment, his identity unknown to the county officials, and no entry reliably affecting him or his alleged offense to be found any where in the public records, yet it ia a fact this is so. The man, a foreigner, was recently released from jail because no ground could be found for his further deten tion, nor indeed for hig detention at any time. He might still be in prison had there not been a change of sher iffs. The new sheriff is Peter A. Johns. During one of his late official eaumera "What Are You in Prison For?" tions of the jail inmates his attention was called for some reason to this man. "What is your name?" inquired the sheriff. "Eleex Lenchack." "What are you in prison for?" "I don't know." "How long have you been here?" . "More than a year." The sheriff examined the jail regis ter covering a year and longer, but could not find the name of Lenchack. He did the same with the commit ments. but with equal unsuccess. Then he questioned the prisoner more closely. Lenchack could not handle English very well, but he managed to explain that all he knew about it was that he had been walking across a field at one of the coking plants not fax from this town when two men ac costed him, took him before a magis trate and then brought him to jail. It is the sheriff's theory that Len chack had been committed to jail un der one name; that he had got onto the jail register under another name, and on the trial docket of the court under still another name, and that when the name on the trial docket was called during sessions of the court there was no prisoner to answer to it. The poor fellow was so glad to get out that his expressions of gratitude, so far as he was able to make this sen timent clear, were most pathetic. A foreigner, knowing little or nothing of the habits and customs of this coun try, not understanding the language, homeless, friendless, knowing no one to apply to, he hail got into jail for a trivial offense. There, forgotten, un able to confide in one even if he had wished, ignorant of how to take steps to get free, he had putin more than a year of his life in a place to which he should not, .perhaps, have been sent at any time. PIES BREAK MAN'S FALL. Tight-Rope Trick on Roof Ends in Headlong Plunge. Philadelphia.—While trying to darn onstiate to a friend some of the acro batic tight-rope walking ability which had won him fame in circus life some years ago, Frank Velloski, 25 years old, fell from the third-story roof of his home, to the alley below and was taken to the hospital, suffering from concussion of the brain. His condition is serious, the doctors say. Velloski occupies the fourth floor. Shortly before noon he stepped out of his window onto the roof of the third floor extension, to get a breath of fresh air. Just across the alleyway, on the roof of No. 116 Spruce street, was one of Velloski's friends. "Guess I'll come over for a while," he said. I'll show you the way we used to do when I was a circus man," he added, as he mounted a thin clothes line which stretched betweeD the two houses across the alley. He had successfully gone to the mid dle of the rope when suddenly it snapped. Velloski went crashing down to the hard pavement of the al ley below. A woman in No. 116 had been bak ing pies and half a dozen specimens of her art were out to cool in the al ley. Velloski landed head first into them. The hospital doctors say that it was due to this fact that the former circus man's skull was not fractured. The Nature of the Brute. Ex —Did you ever see an Indiat idol?
