BOWBELLS, NORTH DAKOTA WhenBowser But It's So With All of Them. Z By M. QUAD. Copyright, 1916, by the McCIure Newspaper Syndicate. When Mr. Bowser cornea home and finds his wife lying down with bar head tied up, he Is real sorty for her, of course—Just as sorry as any bos* band could be. And, like any othfer husband, he stands and surveys her for a moment and then bluntly says: "I expected It. Finally got down flat, eh?" "It's nothing," she faintly replies. "Oh, It isn't! Nothing for a wife to flop down and upset the whole house, 1 suppose? Well, I've been looking for It the last three months, so I'm not much surprised. Mrs. Bowser, It's a wonder to me that you or any other woman in the state Is out of her cofflrt." "It's only—only a headache, dear."' "Yes, only a headache but what do headaches lead to? If you are not a dead woman by Saturday night you may consider yourself lucky. Didn't I warn you not to sit In a draft not to wear thin shoes—hot to eat too much In warm weather? Little good it does to talk to a woman." "You can't help ailing occasionally." she replied as she got up to wet the bandage around her head. "Mrs. Bowser, look at me," be said as he struck an attitude and held one hand aloft. "When am I ever ailing? "UBS. BOWBBB, LOOK AT HBl" When do you bear me complain} Never! And why Is It? Because, Mrs. Bowser—because I don't cram my stomach with watermelon, buttermilk, gumdrops, custard pie, sweet cake, ginger ale and all that. Because 1 don't go around with my feet sopping wet. Because I know enough to come In when it rains. Because 1 exercise a little common sense in taking care of myself." "Your dinner Is ready." "And I'm ready for dinner. A healthy, happy person Is always ready for his meals. You won't try to get up, I sup pose?" "Not now." "Well, you have only yourself to blame. You may learn in time, but I doubt It. I'd like to And one woman with about two ounces of horse sense' In her bead before 1 die. but I don't expect to do It. Well, it can't be help ed, I suppose. The Lord made you that way, and it's no use to argue." Mr. Bowser eats his dinner, smokes his cigar and sings and whistles ns If the slightest noise didn't go through her aching head like a bullet. It never occurs to him to fan her. wet the band age or ask If she can't sip a cup of tea It does occur to him, however, to say about bedtime: "I'm sorry, of course, but then you must have more sense. I'll go up to bed. and you can come when you get ready. If you are going to kick around much you'd better sleep In the spore room." Now and then the tables are turned. Mr. Bowser comes home to lunch drag ging his legs after htm and looking pale and very much scared. "What's the matter?" asks Mrs. Bow ser as soon as he steps Into the house. "Got a sore throat, and I feel fever Isb. I—I think I'm going to be sirk!" She doesn't call out that she expect ed It and declare that no husband In the world has sense enough tn look out for his health. She knows that he was out In a draft in his shirt sleeves, but she doesn't ever mention it On the contrary, she remarks: "Try and eat a little something and then lie down. Yon'd better gargle yonr throat nnd then tie It tip." "Do yon think It's nnrthfnar serious?" 1». whispers ns he grows pnler. "I hope not. bnt It's wiser to be on the safe side. Ton are snhlert to quinsy, you know, and spinal mratn jrttl* be?ln« 1n«t thl« way." "T bellere I'm going to die." gears Mr. Bowser, and he grow* so weak that she hn« lo take off hl« cont nn-1 rest and get him on the lonnr-e. Every thing ahont the honse Is ordered to go on tiptoe, and even the rat Is pnt out and the eloek stopped. After his throat kM b«Ni Had op, bis Rboei takan ofl and a quilt thrown over Mm Mr. Bow ser plaintively inquires: "Don't you think you'd better seno torn doctor?" ''Not Jtwt yet, dear. 1 don't think it a rtry serious." "Mrs. BoWBer, I believe I'm already struck with death." "Nonsense! You've Just got a little inflammation of the tonsils." "I've felt for some days as if a great calamity hung over this household. Hadn't we better have two doctors?" "Ju3t try and go to sleep, Mr. Bow ser, end IH warrant you will feel bet ter by night" "Ah, how I suffer!" ha groans, "Yon may be a widow before the week is out. I hope you will always be kind to the cook. I have triad to be a good husband, and—and"— Mrs. Bowser lays her hand on his forehead, and the tears come to his eyas and be suddenly becomes a great big booby. She i"»° to hold his hand to get him to sleep, and when he wakes up he wants tea and toast and jelly* and he is as petulant as a sick baby until finally put to bed. He is a new man when he awakes in the morning, and when she asks after his throat be re plies: "Throat! Humph! Mrs. Bowser, for about five hours yesterday I was hov ering between life and death. Had it been you you would have died ten times over, but grit pulled me through." "Grit?" "Yes grit, sand, pluck, Spartan cour age and fortitude. I let none of you know how bad I actually was, but Just shut my teeth and determined to live, and here is the result of it. Ah. Mrs. Bowser, if you only had a hundredth part of my courage and will power you'd be a far different woman from what you are now—a far different wo man." Mrs. Bowser felt that she owed him one for that, and she said: "The minute you feel it coming on you should start for home." "Eh, what do you mean?" he asked as his face grew grave. "The chill." "What chill?" "Mr. Bowser, you were a very sick man last night, and though yoj say you are all right this morning you may have a relapse." "Do—do you think I will?" "One can't say In such cases. How ever, at the first sign of a chili, you start for home. You had best come In the ambulance." "But I don't believe I shall have a uhilL" Mr. Bowser stood around for Ave minutes, and then slowly left the bouse, and when outside the gate be muttered to himself: "It's the strangest thing In the world that I can never get the better of that woman." Mrs. Bowser, as the reader well knows, is not a revengeful person. However, she got to feeling that she had let Mr. Bowser off too easy In this Instance, and after giving him time to reach the office she telephoned blm. "IJust wanted to aBk if you got over .isKhont a chill.? ^TDld I? Of course I did," he roared back. "I'm so glad." Then she called In a neighbor to ask aver the wire: "Aren't you taking terrible chances. Bowser?" "What do you mean?" was asked. "Why, getting up off a dying bed to go to the office. Watch your feet like a hawk. If they begin to get cold you run for home at once." An hour later she got the wife of a neighbor to come in and say: "Oh. Mr. Bowser, I've beard of how near you came to your grave. This la Mrs. Forbush, you know." "Um!" "The whole city feels that it had rather lose the mayor than Bowser, so do be careful. If you feel one sin gle shiver"— Another grunt nnd Mr. Bowser hung up. Then Mrs. Bowser came in with: "Have you got your feet in a dish of hot water?" "Not by a darned sight!" he whoop ed. "but I'll get you in hot water when I come home." But he didn't. He was as good as pie. and without being asked to he gave her. money for two pairs of 75 cent stockings reduced to 49 cents a pair.

SHREWD POLITICAL DECLARES FOR ESTABROOK Ralph Cameron Believes He is the Only Man Who Can Rally to His Support All Factions. Ralph H. Cameron. Republican Nsj tional Committeeman for Arizona andj former Delegate in Congress from that state, has declared himself for the nomination of Henry D. Estabrook of Nebraska and New York, as the Re publican candidate for president of the United States. Mr. Cameron 1»( known as one of the shrewdest litical observers in the country, which adds greatly to the Interest in his lining up with the Estabrook move ment. He said: "I am for Henry D. Estabrook for the Republican nomination for Presl-, dent. I am for him because, In my judgment, be Is the one man who caft rally Republicans of all elements and shades of opinion to his support, and, therefore, the one man whose nomlna-, tion will give us the best assurance of victory in 1916. I have made sev eral extended trips over the country within the last few months. None of the old line candidates for the Re publican nomination has aroused any app' eciable enthusiasm. Obviously, the favorite son movement In the sev-. eral states can get nowhere, for It can never develop a national leader ship. Indeed, I see great danger In this favorite son brand of polities, for it can readily develop a situation that would mean a repetition of the dis aster of 1912. "RepubH ms generally welcome the new leadership Idea. Mr. Estabrook is able, aggressive, sound in his Re publicanism, and free of factional, entaru 'ements To me, as a Repub lican, there Is genuine Inspiration and hope in Mr. Estabrook's candidacy." A NEW JERSEY TRIBUTE Henry D. Estabrook, a lawyer by profession, a Nebrasksn by birth, and a New Yorker by residence, Is an avowed candidate for the Republican nr lination for President. Already headquarters have been established at Omaha, and It Is expected that other states will fall In line, particularly through the W^st, where he Is well- known and highly esteemed. Esta brook Is a type of man that Is always popular with the masses. He Is an orator that grips bis audience at the start and holds them to the end. He knows the tariff question thoroughly and his views on all of the Important questions that will be Issues are sound and thoroughly American. Born and reared in Nebraska, he was graduated from Washington University, Bt. Louis. In 187B. He bsgan the prac tice of law In Omaha, removed to Chicago in 1896 and thence to'New York In 1902. His family consists of his wife and daughter, now Mrs. Karl G. Roebllng. He Is as energetic as he Is active, and on a recent trip to the Pacific Coast be spoke day after day. He is a member of the Union League Club. New York City, and was selected recently to voice that organi zation's attitude on the question of preparation for national denfenss.— Newark, N. J., Sunday Call. THE ONLY NEW LEADER The Railroad Employee, one of tha most Important labor Journals In the United States, regards Henry D. Esta brook as the only available new leader In sight. Following Is an excerpt from the January Issus of the Em ployee: "Estabrook seems to be, at the present time, the only available new leader In sight. His discussions ot the tariff from the fundamental pro tection standpoint, of national de fense, and of anti-business agitation and legislation, his attitude toward labor—he has said that whatsoever power Inheres In capital through ag gregation and organization must be permitted to labor—his criticisms of the Democratic administration's for eign policy, and his 'Get Together^ plea to Republicans of all element^ and of all shades of opinion, have at: tracted widespread attention. "From the time he opened tha Re publican national campaign In Chi cago, In 1896, Estabrook has been known as one of the most effective campaigners among the big men in the Republican party. He Is eloquent, courageous, forceful, and a man of engaging personality. His Republic canlsm Is described as unhyphenated —the kind that does not need any qualifying adjective. He has always kept the faith and fought for it." E8TABROOK ON PREPAREONBM, "We must forthwith spend money tor defense sod lots of it Wrnwt know that we are safe even from tha temptation of attack."—Henry IX Estabrook. "I would heartily advocate Mr. E^yan's policy of non-resistance rather than any policy ot half preparedness. I bad rather scrap every gun and war ship we own if wa are not to add ta them."—He^ry D. Estabrook. /'To fight inadequately arnsd ant 4ith the c«rtainty of losing would be nothing short of murder, for which ou and I /and every taxpayer in tha United Status WMM UmMvmSSi a n CHARLES JT.
