Charles Dickens: "If you would
not be forgotten as soon as you are
.ead, either write something worth
reading or do something worth writ
ing." _
"Keep the girls on the farms and
the boys will stay there" was the
slogan of the farmers' national con
gress at Plano. III., the other day.
That's the troubie: how are we go
ing to keep the girls there?
Senator works of California is an
other gentleman of the Penrose
stripe who favors using force to
settle the Mexican unrest. It is
possible that Senator Works, like
Messrs. Penrose and Fall, has
financial interests in the unhappy
southern republic? Gentlemen
who invested their capital in the
republic of Mexico, with their eyes
open, should not be such bad losers.
We have no faith in the worriments
of Hon. Works, who is the prime
leader against the Owen bill for the
establishment of a national bureau
of health.

LUCILE’S OTHER DRESS
BY E, W. MILLBTT.
Tuesday afternoon about three
o'clock Arthur Knight telephoned me
that he had just heard there was to be
an impromptu dance at the country
club that evening, and he asked me to
go with him. The only frock I had
suitable to wear was my embroidered
swiss, and when I got it out 1 was dis
mayed to find it quite mussy and
soiled.
"\\ hy don't you wear your pink and
white marquisette?" asked mother
“1 ve worn it twice when I've bpen
out with Arthur,” I replied. "I don't
want him to think it’s the only sum
mer gown 1 own.” Then I threw the
embroidered swiss over my arm and
started downstairs.
"Now, Lucile, don’t have Tilly do
up that dress unless she is perfectly
willing,” called mother after me. “I
don't like to have extra work put bn
her in this hot weathpr.”
I called back that Tilly need not do
up my frock unless she wanted to
And, to tell the truth, she did not
seem very enthusiastic when I first
broached the subject.
"Tilly," I said, with a sudden inspi
ration just ns 1 was about to leave the
kitchen, "how would you like to have
the whole day off tomorrow and go out
the suburb where your aunt lives? If
you'll do me this favor of laundering
this dross this afternoon in a hurry,
you may have a holiday tomorrow, and
I'll give you the money to pay your
fare out to your aunt's.”
Her discontented look turned into a
smile as I spoke. Then she took the
gown with alacrity, and it certainly
looked exquisite when she brought it
up to me in my room two hours later.
‘•‘You are as fresh as a marguerite,”
said Arthur, admiringly, when he saw
me that evening, so I felt repaid for
all my trouble in getting the dress j
washed and ironed for the occasion
As we whirled away in his car, he
asked, looking down the street: ‘‘Isn't I
that Louise Erwin?"
“Yes, I believe it is,” I said, and
waved my gloved hand to Louise) who
looked rather astonished.
“I wonder jf she wouldn’t like to go
ilong,” said Arthur, and slackened the
speed of the car. "There’s sure, to be
plenty of extra men at the club to
light.”
"Oh. no, she is scarcely dressed for
i party,’ I answered, laughing. “Your
;uggestlon is awfully kind, but most
mpractical. You know, Ixmise is
luite old-maidy about wanting to have
>n the proper thing.”
When I got home mother was up.
s is usual with her. I almost wish
hat she Was under a doctor’s orders ;
0 be in bed before ten o’clock, for I
:now It's injurious to her to stay up
ate. I nearly always find her nervous
ind overwrought when I come In from
iny party or little trip.
“Lucile.” she said, accusingly, ‘‘I
hink' it wan extremely thoughtless of
ou to forget that you had asked Lou
se Erwin here to dinner. She seemed
mrt at your going away as you did ”
“Louise is foolishly sensitive, moth
t,” I explained. "It wasn’t as if I
lad invited her to a dinner party. I
ust casually asked her to come up
ind help m® make some fudge which
promised Cousin Fannie for her min
ion class picnic tomorrow.”
“Well, she made it,” said mother, in
1 crisp tone.
I had met Carl Bates’ sister at the
ountry club that evening and had
greed to go out to Evanston early the
lext morning to pass the day with her
Vheti I got home in the evening, alter
linner, mother met me at the door
vith a reproachful face.
"Well, I surely have had a day of
t!” she exclaimed. “I was greatly
■urprised. Lucile, when Tilly left the
muse this morning as soon as the
n-eakfast dishes were washed. She
aid you told her that she could have
l holiday and she looked so dreadfully
lisappointed at the thought of giving
t up that, of course, 1 had to let her

"The worst of It was,” she mutin
ied, “that Fannie had to be away on
iccount of her mission class picnic
md there was no one to help me gat
unch for your Aunt Rachel, who
1 roppea in.”
"Dear me!” I replied. "I do wish
\unt Rachel would have the kindness
:o let you know when she is coming.”
“I told her to come any time this
.veek, never supposing you would de
prive me of a cook for a w hole day.”
complained mother. "I also had to get
linner. I must say. Lucile. that I'm
ill out of patience with you!”
“Why, mother, darling!” I cried,
‘you would never speak fw me so
narshlv if Aunt Rachel had not influ
enced you. She is always criticising !
me, but 1 thought you loved me."
“Of course, I love you. Lucile," said
mother, “but I'm so hot and tired that
I'm afraid I'm feeling a little cross. |
I’ou must forgive me. dear."
What could I do but tell her that
[ forgave her? •
Poor, dear mother! What a pity it
is that she permits small domestic oc
currences to disturb her so greatly!
It would be a comfort to me if she
had somewhat more poise and self
control.
Verily.
“But when you asked for my daugh
ter you told me you had money enough
to support her In the style she was
accustomed to." said the father who
had been touched.

FAMOUS ECHOES.
There are many places where re*
markable echoes occur. On the hanks
of the Rhine at Lurley, if the
weather he favorable, the report of
h rifle or the sound of a trumpet
will be repeated at different period?
mid with various degrees of strength
from crag to craf on opposite 'sides
of the river alternately. A similar
effect is heard near a loch in Scot
land. There is a place in Glouces
tershire, England, which is said to
echo a sound fifty times. Near Glas
gow there is a spot where, if a per
son plays a bar of music upon a
bugle the notes will be repeated by
an echo, but a third lower. Three
echoes will be heard in all, each
lower than the preceding one. The
whispering galleries of St. Paul’s,
of the Cathedral church of Glouces
ter, and the observatory of Paris owe
their curious effect to the same re
flection of sound.
