LL SS Bravery blackens the eyes of bad luck. Dogged “endurance defeats even de | spair. This is the time for every wise wife to husband her resources. | It fs never hard times t the man | who finds pearls in his oy: ter stew. The big battleships are to have have bigger battleships to smite ‘em. You never hear of a divorce in a| family where the shelves are loaded | with preserves and pickles. “Occasional separations are good for married couples,” says a woman! writer. Good or unavoidable? A descendant of an Iroquois chief made a million out of the market. | His specialty doubtless is scalping. Pianists are insuring their hands | and dancers their feet. There is never | any telling what insurance will do | next. , ______?F } The fact that butter is to be ad-| vanced to 50 cents a pound by the | trust Is likely to cow the economical housewife. Gladys Vanderbilt's fiance is being criticised for his extreme economy. This is a very unusual fault in a for- eign husband, A Chinaman in New York kissed a, white woman in public. Then he took his cue and departed before the mob could get at him. While the cost of living may go down the weary householder is afraid it will take a distressingly long time to pass a given point. } The sultan is putting up telephones | | !n Turkey, but it is safe to say that he will do all of his talking to the harem in the good old way. Lillian Russell says that divorce is ;a blessing, but she would probably feel irritated if her ex-husbands should publicly express the same opinion. After a little while the possibility of war may become so remote that | there will be no need of repeating the assurances that there will be no war, An Englishman is going to seek the south pole in an automobile, possibly in an effort to emulate the glorious achievements of Mr. Wellman at the north pole. The oldest newspaper in China, and the oldest also in the world, is to be modernized. This means the breaking down of the strongest Chinese wall ever erected The popularity of bridge in Chica- go was never more strikingly illus- trated than by the fact that 56,349 wagons crossed eleven bridges in eight hours the other day. It is always well not to rejoice too soon, It turns out that the Florida man who was sent to jail for wetting poetry will not be there long h to get the ailment out of his system. Tt will be some time before the tm. pulsive lover can safely propose by wireless, for the wrong girl might pick up the message and think she had cause for a breach of promise case, Hazers were assessed $14,000 dam- ages by a merry court at Kewanee, Tl, which entered right into the spirit of the fun. Making hazing come high is the only way to break some people of the habit. The “bigger” the men in the crime business, the more essential it is that they be run in and locked up, the same as the smaller fry. aa eee eS!” An agriculturalist believed he was the victim of a dire plot in Joplin, according to the News-Herald. He| entered a cigar store in which were! several men. “Gimme five cents wuth uv three-fer-a-nickel seagare,” sald the rural citizen, drawing forth & $20 bill, At that instant the big are light in the ceiling of the estab- lishment went out without so much as adying suptter. ‘“I'rapped, by hookey,” gasped the farmer, seizing his wallets and striking right and left with his fists as he plunged out of the store.—Ex 7 stole $1,100 from the county collect- or’s office at Charleston about six weeks ago, has repented of his crime Writing to his father from Call- fornia, he sald all the money fs gone and thathe wants to come back home and suffer the consequences of his wrong doing, although begging for merey. Young Ashby'’s downfall is attributed to a wayward life and assoclating with bad company. He now says that he wants genuine re- Ngion, after being forgiven for his sing, and will hereafter be an honor- able, upright fellow. He writes In his letter that If he had conducted himeelf right, this year he would have graduated with honors from the Charleston High School.

Bank Robbers in Oklahoma? ch 2.—It 1s the opinion of the officers here that the men who robbed the bank at Rich Hill, Mo., are in hiding 1n the Osage hills west of this city. A large sup- ply of Winchesters were bought here immediately preceding the robbery, and it is thought that a gang of men have made their headquarters In this vicinity for some time. The cities all along the Oklahoma border are fearing @ raid, and the bankers along the Kansas line have prepared againsé any such emer- gency. The banks at Caney have been heavily armed and theemployes warned to take every precaution ainss a raid on the institutions. CASTORIA. Feudist Slain From Ambush. Clayton, N.

St. Petersbarg, Feb.—Lieutenant General Stoessel, who on February 2C was condemned to death for the surrender of the Port Arthur fortress to the Japanese, has petitioned Em- peror Nicholas for a full pardon.

They were discovered by Prof. Her- bert E. Bolton of the university of Texas, who has been making exhaus- tive researches in the Mexican archives. The whereabouts of the papers has been unknown since they were eelzed by the Spaniards from General Pike ¥00 years ago, and their discovery {s of great import. From them itis expected to be able to learn whether General Pike was implicated in the Burr conspiracy, and it is also ex- pected that they will shed much light onearly American history, partica- ‘larly that pertaining to this region. * —Denver News. years inprisonment in & fortress and that the general be excluded from the service. To Begin Hunt For Sailor. Callao, Peru, Feb.—An interesting task confronts Lieutenant W. R.

We honestly believe there are more pretty babies fn this township than {n any other one tn the county or perhaps the State, Among them are little Hubert and Herbert, the twin boys of Dick Teasley and wife. They are doing remarkably well. Is would make the President smile to look {nto the faces of such fine boys. And there are the little twin daugh ters of Welby Stayton and wife, litsle Mina and Nina. While they are bright, healthy bables, they are yet very sinall, bus we well know all the great oaks of the forest were once lit- tle acorns, President Roosevelt may never have the opportunity of smiling on these little ladies, but we are sure in years to come many of his-sex-witt-be-—gind-to-have opportunity.
