GKANT COUNTY HERALD, LANCASTER, WISCONSIN. JUNE 29, 1910.
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.”

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.
Without tolerance, sympathy, and

Scared Into Sound Health.
Mr. R. F. Kelley, Springfield, 111.,
writes: “A year ago I bc’an to be
troubled with kidneys and bladder,
which grew worse until I became
alarmed at my condition. 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. Take Foley’s Honey and Tar
promptly, It loosens the cough,
soothes and heals the inflamed air
passages, and expels the cold from the
system. J. T. Bennett.

An Aid to Digestion.
Take the lining of a chicken gizzard,

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
