e e i i THINGS TO PONDER OVER ‘What you call temper in. your wife you call temperament in yourself. A widow is never more dangerous than when she tells a youth that she never was really happy in her mar- ried life. Generally speaking, a woman is— generally speaking. Often the silence of a woman is not only eloquent, but profane. Half the time while the man is thinking, “I wonder if I dare?” the woman is thinking, “I wonder why he doesn’t.” S It is the wise who die young. The older a man grows the greater risk he runs of being found out. ° ; The woman who knows her' own mind must be horribly well informed. If woman makes all the trouble in life, it’s woman makes life worth all the trouble. : * * THEY’RE GOING TO STICK A. C. Townley with leaders few Set out to form a league brand new. He went to the country . And talked to the farmers And started a yelp from business alarmers, And those who had nursed at the public pap Joined in the wail with a weak- - kneed yap. But the league is still growing And ‘the farmers are showing That they are GOING TO STICK. PERLIE CHITWAR, --Long .

The trough 'on Hog Island appears to have been well filled—and. well A R S8 L A S WA T T THE DOINGS OF DISTANCE "Tis distance lends enchantment to the view, and plays the old, trumps up, against the new: thus from afar we dote upon the charm of running wild and barefoot on the farm; thus in our years we honestly regret the loss of spankings we no longer get, and thus it is we’d now give world and all to climb a tree and have another fall! At forty, ah, ’twould seem the rarest treat to have the croup again, and calloused feet; and, oh, what joy ’twould be to ride a rail, to skin a knee, or black a finger-nail! How will- ingly we’d give our house and lot, and all the debts and dollars that we’ve got, to play with lizards in the marshy lake, and - have the hives again, and stomach ache! Ah, fain again the pleasure-cup we’d quaff, of peppered goose-oil, cure for whoop- ing cough, and feel the scratch of flannel on our necks, and read a blurry page through mother’s specs! .Indeed, as backward through the mists we glance, we long ‘for oval patches on our pants, and feel that we could down a brimming bowl of muddy water from the swimming hole! We feel we’d like to have a freckled nose; and kick about the farm in copper toes; we feel that grammar never smacked of toil; we fancy we could thrive on castor oil! ; Yes, distance is our friend ; some sage has said, “a stimu- lant for those who look ahead”; but I shall add, if that sage doesn’t mind, “an antidote for those who look behijldE!;’ i : PERFECTLY TRUE THIS Governor Burnquist was “amused” at the request of a delegation of farmers from the southern part of the state who wanted an overofficious sheriff removed for preventing them from holding a meeting. He ‘is in danger ‘of laughing himself to death politically. * * * If the Tennessee idea of substitut- ing pigs for dogs becomes prevalent, will society ladies still kiss the pets in the baskets on their arms? * * * The plan of the “chosen people” in arresting Townley is not par- ticularly to arrest Townley— that’s incidental. The plan is to . arrest the progre:s_of the League. *® * If Old Brindle doesn’t get the big- head this winter, eating forty-dollar- per-ton shorts and eighteen-dollar- per-ton hay, being milked by a forty- dollar-per-month hired man, into a three-dollar milk pail, and having her - ten-cents-per-quart milk strained into dollar-apiece pans by ten-dollar-per- week hired girls—if she doesn’t get the hig-head this winter, it is simply because she is a born canaille, and the pride of the afisto‘crat‘is not in her! . WHY WE FIGHT A people can only become in- - telligent and educated through study and discussion. That is why we fight so hard for freedom of the press, speech and as- semblage. Justice Kelly of New York state recently told:a woman that “perfect husbands are few.” How thankful Mrs. Roosevelt should be to know that she captured one of those few. * * * .~ Last month, someone writing in to the Leader suggested that North Dakota observe seven-Ba- conless days per week. The Ba- : con referred to was not Swift’s, ~but Jerry. ~ This brand of Bacon _is already on the Black list. = N _PAGE - ADVERTISEMENTS Patented milk distributing device wed in the New De Laval (sectional view) Some big advantages that 'you can obtain only in the NEW IE LAVAL CREAM SEPARATOR ' GREATER CAPACITY: _Without increasing the size or weight of the new bowl, its capacity has been increased.
