To be a successful wife, to
retain the love and admiration
of her husband should be a
woman's ‘constant study. If
she wouid be all that she may,
she must guard well against the

Killed Medicine M Man.
TUnapacha Heech:a, one of the great
medicine men of the Piutes, is dead,
having been slain by tribesmen be-
cause he failed to propitiate the evil
spirit and bring about better condi-
tions among the tribes which live
along the Colorado, and his slayer,
Arda Mecha, has killed himself in
obedience to -the order of the ring
chiefs. =
The double killing occurred a few
days ago north of Spear’s Lake, 10
miles out from Needles. It appears
that the medicine man had been con-
demmned to death because of his fail-
ure to drive away the spell which was
rapidly killing off the tribe, and at a
conclave of braves his death was de-
cided upon. . He was first ordered
from the land where his hut stood for
many years. - He failed to go, bhe-
lieving that as soon as he had step-
‘ped from the boundary of his prop-
erty, which is supposed to be conse-
crated, he would. die. .
Mecha succeeded ‘in getting him
off,. but desecrated’ “the land by fight-
ing the medicine man in his own
house, and after he had shot Heecha
through the head he turned the gun
on himself, blowing out his brains.
A great pow-wow followed, great hon:
ors being done to both bodies as the
funeral pyre” slowly” consumed them.

i Animal Conquest Ma Marked One of the Great ¢

@900 069600 HT conquest of the horse.by man, and its final utilization for
8 all purposes which are discharged by steam and electricity
s today, marked one of the great turning points in the history
® of civilization. In the great earth and sand preglacial de-
1 : posits of Europe the true wild ‘horse is as . widespread,
| 900900000 though not as varied, as in America. - It is not at this stage
2 associated with the remains of man, because no preglacial
| 200000000 man except the pithecanthropus or Trinil man of Java has
been found. In the interglacial or postglacial period the re-
mains of man and the horse are first found together. The first association
occurs in the middle of the palaeolithie, or rough implement, period. The
discovery of ail the possible uses of the horse came very gradually, however,
for there if abundant proof that man first hunted and ate, then drove, and
finally rode the animal.
The prevailing drawings of the palaeolithic horse represent him as hog
maned, with no forelock to conceal the low-bred Roman nose. A second type
in the Mouthe cave, a bearded horse with long bristling mane, long ears and
convex forehead, is regarded by M. Riviere a$§ another species. But it is not
clear to my mind that these drawings represent more than the summer and
winter coats of the same animal. Besides these Roman-nosed types to which
Ewart traces the modern cart horse, there are others with small heads and
flat noses which Ewart associates with ‘the Celtic pony and possibly with the
origin of the thoroughbred. CGther cave drawings, reproduced by M. Capitan,
leave little doubt that the ass was known in Europe. It is also certain from
abundant evidence in the caves of France that there was a larger horse
toward the south perhaps, while the smaller breeds may have frequented the
colder northern regiens.—The Century.

There Are No
Ideal Husbands
By Dr. Ellen Milas.
totem GALT Dr mimebiopas
UCH a thing as an ideal husband does not exist. The near-
est approach to one is the man who would" ‘allow his wife
the same liberties as himself,
If he drops around to his club in the evening, let her do
likewise. If he hires a carriage and takes a woman ac-
quaintance driving in the park, let him expect to have her
hire. a carriage and take out some man friend.
‘ The ideal husband should be consistent. He should re-
spect his wife’s rights. :
He should make the children respect the mother’s opinion.
He should be at his wife's command as thoroughly as he expects her to
be at his.
A man should not be expected to be tied to his wife’s apron strings, to be
sure. He needs recreation, and should be entitled to an evening out with his
friends, but the ideal husband would never wait to be asked to stay at home
to keen his wife from being lonesome. He would think first before leaving
his wife at home, ‘Would she rather have me here?’
* He would take an interest in her affairs and pleasures. He would be con-
cerned in the welfare of his home. He would be agreeable about the house.
Emphatically, I do not believe the way to reach a man’s heart is through
his stomach. Men like to be well fed, and it is their right to expect good
meals when they provide the means for them, but I don’t think a good meal
would win a man to his wife's side if he were determined on an evening out
with his crowd. i
I think a man has a right to complain if the meals are not decent, but the
ideal husband would not make his criticisms on bad coffee or overdone steak
in the nature of fault-finding. The ideal husband would always regard his
wife’s feelings as well as his own.

today, our “man behind the gun” is a man worth the know-
ally straighter soldier doesn’t live or dwell on the face ot
the globe. Like English “Tommy Atkins,” as well as the
sailor Jackie of ‘Anglo-Saxon blood, he has his faults and
limitations. He “comes higher” than do ‘the rankers of oth-
er lands, but he fights harder. With fewer numbers he ac-
complishes greater results. He has’ ‘patience illimitable in
face of a turbulent mob of his. own. people, but he pulls trigger quick, sudden-
ly and sure when he gets the word. He is the bugbear of ‘demagogue orators

over Chicago’s early infancy, and thrice since the great. civil war has he;come
with fixed bayonets to stand between her and anarchy. He is proud of his
iag and his country. He is stout-hearted, clean-limbed, law- abiding, self- re-.
specting as a rule. He wants to be held and hailed as a-man, not: a box. He
devotes reasonable time and thought to his drill, but. he, delights in ‘healthful,
‘hearty outdoor sports, base ball, foot ball and polo preferred. He! ‘sometimes
slights the little niceties of nrilitary carriage and courtesies, but he. will cheer-
fully submit to the sterpest discipline, the hardest privations, the heaviest
trials when he knows the need; and, finally, when it comes to fighting he will
charge with finer fury and enthusiasm or hold his ground with; more grim,
‘dogged tenacity, and all thé time shoot with greater skill and precision than
any other man-at-arms of all the vaunted legions of Eurone. His one great
wish seems to be that the people he so loyally serves might know him as he
is—a man to depend on in fair weather or foul, a soldier to be proud of at all

& Women Are Not
La ©. Selfish Enough
By John Oliver. Hobbes, ne Craigie.)
WOMEN. -where - their feeling s are in question, are not selfish
.enpugh, they appraise themselv es not too dearly, but far too
cheaply; it is the suicidal unselfishness of women which makes
the selfishness, of the -modern bachelor: possible. Bachelors
are not all misogynists, and the fact that'a man remains un-
married is. na proof that he is insensibié’ to. the charm of a
woman's companionship, or that he.does. not have such com:
irs -) ‘panicnship, on-irresponsible terms, to a ‘most considerable de-
2 gree. Why should the dverage vain’ young man, egotistic
* pee organism and education, work hard or make sacrifices for the sake of any
particular woman, while so many are too willing to share his life without join-
ing. it, and so. many more wait eagerly on his steps to destroy any chivalry or’
tenderness he may have, been born with? Modern women give Bachelors no
time to miss them, and no opportunity to need thém; their devotion is un-
disciplined, and it becomes a.curse rather than a blessing: to its object. Why?
Because women have this strange power of concentration and self-abnegation
in their love; they can not do enough to prove their kindness. And when
they have done all, and have been at no pains to secure their own position,
they realize that they have erred through ex ess of generosity .shown toward
bachelors.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
OUTLOOK FOR STEEL BUSINESS.
Number
Have Been Closed.
The Iron Age says: The outlook is
very encouraging in nearly every di-
rection. While generally speaking
the volume of new business during
the past week: has naturally been
rather light, still quite a number of
large transactions have been closed.
A good deal of tonnage has been
entered by the structural shops.
A Large
Works in the Pittsburg district have |;
amounting to |
captured the work,
about 12,000 tons, for the New York
Central road and 6,000 tons for the
Delaware, Lackawanna & Western.
The leading interest has taken 5,000
tons of bridge work for the Cincinnati,
Hamilton & Dayton road and 3,000
tons for the Pennsylvania lines west.
Some very large requirements are
still in the: market, among which is a
lot of 14,000 tons of bridge work for
the Harriman lines.
None of the large steel rail con-
tracts pending has been closed dur-
ing the week, but the volume of busi-
ess already done is indicated by the
fact that the United States Steel Cor-
poration mills now have on the
books 425,000 tons of rails for next
year’s delivery. Some export 'busi-
ness ‘of great magnitude is pending
and there are ‘also some inquiries from
Mexico, among them one lot of 17,000
tons.
The furnace and: foundry interests
throughout the central west and the
east have been much relieved by the
copious rains in the coke regions,
whieh hold out the promise of more
regular and more abundant supplies
of fuel.

SISTERS OF CHARITY
In every country of the civilized world
Sisters of Charity are known. Not only do
they minister to the spiritual and intel-
lectual needs of the charges committed to
their care, but they also minister to their
bodily needs.
With so many children to take care of
and to protect from climate and disease,
these wise and prudent Sisters have found
.Peruna a never failing safeguard.
r. Hartman receives many letters
from Catholic Sisters: from all over the
United States. A recommend recently re-
ceived from a Catholic institution in De-
troit, Mich., reads as follows:
Dr. S. B. Hartman, Columbus, Ohio;
Dear Sir: ‘*Theyoung girl who used
the Peruna was suffering from lar-
yngitis and loss of voice. The result
of the treatment was most salisfac-
tory. She found great relief, and
after further use of the medicine we
hope to be able to say she is entirely
cured, ’’---Sisters of Charity.
The young girl was under the care of
the Sisters of Charity and used Peruna
for cataarh of -the throat with good re-
sults as the above letter testifies.
