FRENCH AND ENGLISH WOMEN System of Providing a “Dot” Makes for the Independence of the Former. Though there is far less suffrage propaganda in France, the superior position of the French woman has often been noted. If the husband keeps a shop, she keeps it, too; there is no question of her capacity for business, nor is her share in the joint business regarded as “interference.” With rare exceptions it is almost im possible to imagine the English wom an in a position so entirely taken for granted. But then she starts on a dif ferent basis. In France, the portion less girl would be fairly certain not to marry; from the moment of her birth, therefore, her parents set to work to provide her with a “dot.” In cidentally, the “dot” system is per haps the greatest incentive to thrift so entirely lacking in this country, says London Truth. The dowered girl goes to her husband with a certain solid backing—which proves its value in times of stress and illness —and is not only willing but prepared to work. The average English woman, on the other hand, will be independent, but she is also romantic. And romance with her prefers the role of beggar maid to King Cophetua. In her heart of hearts she likes her husband to “raise her to his side.” She scorns romance on a business basis. Too late does he realize that the small business or professional man cannot really afford the luxury of a house keeper. He spends on her more than he gets from her. Her value to him is one of “estime,” in a day it may be reduced to nil. The independence she hoped to increase by marrying de pends entirely on her kindliness or forbearance. LEFT BA3Y WITH THE SAINT Woman Chooses Unique Method of Getting Rid of Offspring Appar ently Undesired. A respectable woman, with an in fant in her arms, entered the cathe dral at Antwerp one morning when the priest was alone. The woman ad dressed him in a most earnest and affecting manner, and with due hu mility unfolded her tale of sorrow. Her child, she said, was suffering from some mortal malady; the skill of the physician had been all in vain, and she was at last convinced that nothing could save her beauteous babe from the jaws of death but being placed for a moment in the arms of her tutelary saint. The saint was stuck up in a niche of the wall with a neat balcony be fore him, in the form of a goodly mar ble statue. The priest was at last moved by her entreaties; he procured a ladder, ascended to the sacred niche, entered the balcony, and, placing the babe in the arms of the statue, asked the grateful mother if she was satisfied. “Perfectly so,” said that lady; and carefully removing the ladder she walked coolly out of the church, leaving her rosy infant, the astonished priest, and the unconscious saint all equally elevated, there to remain till the next brother of the community should arrive. Art of Getting Votes. A contemporary is devoting space to “Advice to Canvassers.” But can vassers —much more than poets —are born. And born opportunists. A hint, however. It is the homely canvasser that gets his candidate home. Espe cially in the country. There is the stcry from Ireland of the capture of a voter. “Yes, I was agin you at first,” said the voter to his visitor, “that day ye called and stood by the pig stye and talked for hajf an hour ye did not budge me an inch. But after you were gone, sur, I got to thinking how ye reached yer hand over the rail and scratched the pig’s back till he lay down for pleasure. I decided that when a man was so so ciable as that w’ith a fellow-crathure I wasn’t the bhoy to vote agin him.” —London Chronicle. Brave Rescue of Dog. For risking his life to save a dog, Piermaster Bennett of Rhyl, Wales, has just been presented with a diplo ma from the P. C. A. society. A collie dog got into the water at the head of Rhyl pier, and 111 attempts to in duce it to land were futile. Despite the darkness and a heavy tide Ben nett went down one of the columns of the pier to the water’s edge by means of a rope. Even then he could not reach the dog, but by another young man hanging over the pier and thus lengthening the rope, Bennett was able to reach the dog, which was in a very exhausted condition. He was in a perilous position for about three quarters of an hour, and had to hang on by one arm to the ironwork while he lifted the dog out of the water with his other arm. The Boy Critic. Richard Croker, at an open-air lunch eon at Palm Beach, told a George Washington story. “A teacher,” he began, “was con ducting a lesson in history. “ ‘Tommy Jones,’ she said, ‘w’hat was there about George Washington w’hich distinguished him from all other Americans?’ “ ‘He didn’t lie,’ w r as the prompt an swer.” One Instance.

Benedict Arnold’s Last Wish. A New York public school teacher recently asked a pupil in her United States history class to describe the death and repentance of Benedict Arnold. She was somewhat aston ished when the child, in whose mind American, British, Union and Confed erate soldiers were pretty well mixed, replied: “He begged to be allowed to die in a Union suit.” First Need for Humanity.

I suffered also with dull heavy headaches and the action of my bladder wa« annoying and painful. I read of Foley Kidney Pills and after taking them a few weeks the headaches left me, the action of my bladder was agun norm al, and I was free from all distress.” J. T, Bennett, Courtesy. There is no beautifier of complexion, Hr form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy, and not pain, around us. ’Tis good to give a stranger a meal or a night’s lodging. ’Tis better to be hospitable to his good meaning and thought and give courage to a com panion. We must be as courteous to a man as we are to a picture, which we are willing to give the advantage of a good light.—Emerson. What a Summer Cold May do. A summer cold is just as apt to develop into bronchitis or pneumonia as at any other season. Do not neg. lect it.

The SIMPLEX SEPARATOR 1910 MODEL This New Model or Improved “SlM plex” is the result of thirty years’ con tinuous experience with Cream Sep arators of leading makes, and eight years’ experience in manufacturing “SIMPLEX” LINK-BLADE Separat ors. The “LINK BLADE’’ Device and the general bowl Construction, -ft Iso the original “SIMPLEX” simplicity, or in other words, minimum of work ing parts, has been retained; otherwise the new modt-1 has been cotnpletely redesigned from base to supply can. The most striking feature of the New “SIMPLEX” is its light running. To obtain this a higher grade and type of bearing than has ever been used before in Cream Separators, had to be used; bearings exactly the same as are used in the highest class of automobiles, the most accurate, the lightest run ning and the most durable ball bear ings known. The vast sum in advertising other machines has been put into the construction of the “SIM PLEX,” producing a new and higher and. more expensive type than has ever been attempted either here or abroad. Cream Separator advertising and catalogues are so full of broad and exaggerated claims, mostly in capable of substantiation by test, that we prefer to base our arguments on what the “SIMPLEX” actually does iu tests, and we are ready to demon strate the entire superiority of the “SIMPLEX” against any and all makes of machines. The “SIMPLEX” can be seen at Ziegler Bros.’ hardware store in Lancaster, Wis. For particulars in quire of IRA D. TOTMAN, Agt. Lancaster, Wis.
