Women Money Earners,
Unfortunately the majority of wo-
men money earners remain amateurs
in their work as well as in their ac-
complishments and studies. They often
work for 'ears without considering
if their time and labor could not
be spent to better advantage. If a
woman is to earn money at all, why
should she not put ambition and en-
ergy into her work to accomplish as
much as possible. She should not
allow herself to be satisfied with doing
anything short of her best in whatever
she undertakes. It is by no means
desirable that all women should be
money earners, but it is most import-
ant that all should be capable of earn-
ing enough to support themselves and
those dependent upon them.—American

A Blooming Fraud,
"A good old man was accosted one day
in the suburbs by a robust chap of 35 i
or so, who said in a husky voice:
"'Kin ye gimme a little help, pardner?
The price of a Cup o' coffee and a roll?
I'm paralyzed in both hands and can't
work,'
"Suspecting the fellow to be an inipos•
ter, the old gentleman said:
"I'm deaf; I don't hear you. Write
what you have to say, Here is a pencil
and hero is an old envelope.'
"The beggar thought intently. Ile mut-
tered to himself:
"'Write
r
Wr]te with paralyzed hands! I pain t
possible. But he's dcef, and didn't hear
me. P11 chuck a different bluff.'
"So then ho wrote with slow pane:
"Am destoot with six children starveit
at hum erin for bred please help for the
love of heaven,'
"The old man read this note and unit-
ed. Then his brow darkened and he cried
in a loud voice:
"'You villainous imposter! 1 thought
you had paralysis and couldn't grasp any-
thing.'
"Tho beggar looked surprised and hurt.
"Didn't ye say ye was Beof?' be gasp-
ed.
"'Yes, in order to find out if you were
deceiving me.'
"'Well, cried the beggar In a tone of
righteous Indignation, 'of all the bloom-
ing frauds I ever seen you're the btggestl
The idea of your pretendin' to bo deef
and tryin' to impose on a poor feller

"And here, his feelings overcoming
him, the inan raised his paralyted hand
and gave the aged reformer a box on tho
ear. Then he made orf on a run."—Oita.

Drummer and Boy.
A drummer was passing a corn field
in Floyd County, Va. Ise saw a boy in
the field. The corn did not look very
'promising, and the following converse.
tion occurred:
Drummer—Your corn looks very yel-
low, -
Boy—We planted the yellow kind.
Drummer—It does not look like you
will get more than half a crop.
Boy—It makee no difference, as we
only get half of it, anyway.
Drummer—You must not be very far
from a fool.
Boy—No, sir; the fence is just be-
tween us.—Judge's Magazine of Fun,

Mad or sane, Anarchists are vilely- and
abominably wicked, their enthusiasm for
humanity is a sham, and they have no
purpose beyond the gratification of the
most beetial cruelty. They deserve no
pity, and should receive none. They
have appealed unto Terror; to Terror
let them go. We would not hesitate to
inflict upon thein the tortures they 1e -
sign for others; and since they maintain
that deaths by high explosives is eom-
praatively merciful, we should not have
the least objection to seeing them made
to test their own theories. In the mean-
time an agreement among civilized na-
tions to give them• a sound dose of the
eat before execution might act as a de-
terrent upon persons tempted to join
