ipt to justify the use of violence and the defiance pi law to express his hate.
It is timely to call attention once more to the fact that the outrages in the
fnited States so frequently recorded in
a rule committed by ignorant foreigners but by Americans native Americans
promising anglosaxon or north European stock. The outrages are not as a
lie committed by men ignorant of the law
ights which axe supposed to rule in this
mitted by men who have had the benefit
irho are clever enough toNplot their outrages deliberately and carefully to make
ip plausible defences and to cheat the law.
The fact that many of the labor unions are quicker to lend their resources
to shield rather than to discover apd apprehend the guilty individuals illustrates
the fact often alluded to that in many cases the leaders of the unions are not the
true representatives and leaders of the organized workingmen any more than
the elected officials of the various governmental units are true representatives and
leaders of their communities. Conditions among the unions as in politics too
often admit unfit men to leadership. It is these unfit leaders who countenance
dynamite and personal assault; they may write and talk against violence but
their words do not ring sincere for their acts of omission accuse them.
The dynamiter is no friend to the union cause and the majority of the workers
do not countenance violence but as long as so many leaders remain passive there
win be the tendency to make opportunities for gratifying private lusts under cover
of trade disputes.

The Mouse
By
EVERAIi times lately Anna had
complained of the mice in the
kitchen and had asked for a trap.
But Helen who could never bear to
have anything killed had x refused to
get one.
The most harrowing memories of her
childhood were the cruel rat traps that
had been kept in the pantry and cellar
of her grandfather's house. She still
shuddered at the thought of the help-
less squirming things with a leg
crushed in the old fashioned "steel
trap" lying there for hours until they
were found and killed.
Again and again she had stolen down
In the celler where the traps were set
with bits of cheese and had sprung
them with a stick so that she might
sleep that night free from the thought
that some little creature was lying
there maimed and suffering until
morning.
And countless times when she found
them caught in these cagelike traps
which imprison but do not injure
she had opened the wire door to free
them before the servant could throw
them Into a pail of water or let them
out before a leaping dog.
She Barred All Traps.
And so now when she had a home of
her own she was most emnnatlc in her
assertions that there were to be no
traps of any kind.
It was one afternoon just before
Warren came home that she reached up
on the shelf in the bathroom to get a
fresh box of matches for his smoking
table. On this shelf she also kept the
bird-seed and it was from behind a
packable V)f peed that a tiny mouse
sprang out and in its terror fell over
the edge of the shelf into the bathtub
underneath.
For a second it rushed wildly around
the polished porcelain tub and then be-
gan leaping up the slick sides only to
slide back again.
The glass-like finish of the tub gave
it nothing to hold to it was helpless-
ly imprisoned. And still it leaped
frantically but only to reach just be-
low the edge and .then fall back. Its
little body was quivering with terror.
Helen after the first start and cry
of surprise when the mouse had darted
A Detective
y (By Joseph Behand.)
5- HAVE read most of these mod-
em detective stories that are so
popular" said the old judge.
"Both criminals and detectives in them
ate wonderfully clever but still I
tmuk I can tell a story that beats them
all but that Is not very flattering to
myself. . '
"I was quite young and had been
made prefect ofpolice in a department
near Paris and had been quite success-
ful from toe start. A gang of bur-
glars who did not shrink from ranr:-
der were infesting the neighborhood.
They called themselves 'the Invincibles.
In less than six months I broke up the
gang atid had ail the leaders sent to
prison for long - terms and when this
was done I went to Paris for a much
needed rest.
"Next morning I received the follow-
ing letter written in a big firm hand:
" 'Our group still exists and we com-
mand you under penalty of death to
pay over to us the sum of fifty thou-
sand francs. If you are wise you will
Signify your willingness by tying a
white handkerchief to the hook outside
your window.
'The Invincibles.'
"I laughed. It was evidently a joke
of some comrade. But two days later
when I was returning home rather late
something crashed against tne wall
quite near me and exploded. I saw two
shadows disappear among the trees.
I struck a match and saw that a bul-
let -had struck the wall quite near me.
Among my letters the next morning 1
found one written in pencil:
' 'First warning.
'The Invincibles.
"Two days later a little after having
had my breakfast coffee I was seized
with a violent attack of pain that lasted
until -night and an examination show
ed that some milk I had drunk con- )
tained a "mixture of arsenic and an
emetic The next morning this letter
arrived:
" 'Second and last warning; we might
Increase the dose.
'The Invincibles.'
"It was not possible. Was I a po-
lice official or a creature of Conan
Doyle's imagination? And still that
shot. This milk brought in the cream-
ery on the corner and served by the old
valet who had known me since I was
a boy I admit I lost"" my wits. i. can
hardly describe the terror that seized
me. It was like the anguish of a pris-
oner in his cell waiting to be executed.
"Still I succeeded in controlling my
feelings. Th'ey were- not to intimidate
me. They had tackled the wrong man
and I would triumph over thii gaug
once more. I carried a loaded revol-
ver and even-thing I ate was carefully
examined. I even took tne precaution
to write my bank not to pay any check
signed by me so that even if they forc-
ed me to sign one by torture it would
nor be honored.
'Wten I returned from my usual
walk I had an idea. On the first floor in
the-house whree I lived I had noticed
a doorplate .with the Inscription: Dick
Irertrand Private Detective.' I had
seen advertisements in the paper an-
nouncing this man's wonderful success-
ful work. Why should I not engage
him to watch over me. A dignified
valet Jed me into Monsieur Berlrand's j
office where I met a calm self-possess-

out watched it with pity and dismay.
"Anna Anna come here quick!"
Anna appeared at the bathroom door
her hands covered with flour.
"Liook look. How can we get it out
without hurting it?"
With something like a snort Anna
reached over and turned on ther hot
water faucet. But in a flash Helen had
dragged her back and turned it off.
She Scolds the Maid.
"Don't you dare do a thing like
that." Anna had never seen her so
angry. "Do you iliink I'd let you scald
that little thing? If I ever see you
do anything so cruel again you can't
work for me. Do you understand?"
"I didn't know that was the hot
water ma'am. I was just going to
drown it." ""
"Well even to drown a thing trapped
and helpless like that I won't vhave it!
You've been wanting to get traps and
J I won't have them either. I want you
to understand now that nothing is go-
ing to be made to suffer or to be killed
in this apartment."
The mouse was still leaping fran-
tically up the sides of the tub.
"Oh it can never get- out itself how
can we help it?" - v

ly resentful of the scolding.

Warren come here. There's a mouse
in the bathtub and it can't get out!"
"That's tragic!" coming to the door.
"Oh it's so frightened. Can you get
it outvithout hurting it or frighten-
ing It more?"
"Warren -to the Rescue.
He glanced at the little -thing dart-
ing quiveringly around. And then he
simply let down the chain of the rub-
ber stopper which had been caught up
over the faucets. .
In a flash the mouse had climbed up
the chain leaped to the floor and dis-
appeared behind the tub.
"Oh." Helen put up her arms and
kissed him impulsively. "I never
thought of that. You are the dearest
and wiseestVand best man man in the
world."
"As shown by my valorous rescuing
of the mouse."

In the United States who are eligible it
is probable that no other profession in
the United States is less crowded than
that of the veterinarian. There . are
only about twenty schools .teaching vet-
erinary medicine in the country and
only fifteen of these are sufficiently
thorough to entitle their graduate stu-
dents to take the civil service examina-
tion under the United States bureau of
animal industry for the various gov-
ernment positions to be filled by vete-
rinarians. There are more than 200-
000000 domestic animals fn the United
States not including cats dogs or poul-
try. Yet there are only 2000 students
in the veterinary schools of the coun-
try. On the other hand while there
are 90000000 people in the United
states there are nearly 25000 students
of medicine.
A Recent Profession.
Before 1891 the. practice of veterlanry
medicine was given over largely to
blacksmiths and rural horse doctors
none of whom had more than a very
slight empiric knowledge of the dis-
eases of domestic animalsIn that year
the association adopted a requirement
that to be eligible to mefbership an
applicant must have been graduated
from a school requiring at least three
terms of six months each for its course
of study. This tended to give the prac-
tice of veterinary medicine a profes-
sional standing and while in recent
years some little difficulty has been ex-
perienced in combating the mushroom
schools that have sprung up in many
quarters the decision of the bureau of
animal Industry j to recognize only cer-
tain schools has tended to overcome
this eviL
At the last meeting of the associa-
tion held in Chicago a strong resolu-
tion was adopted looking to the stamp-
ing out of hydrophobia. This resolu-
tion declares that all dogs running at
large should be required to be muzzled
and that any dog appearing off the
premises of its owner without a prop-
erly adjusted muzzle ought to be shot
immediately. Another resolution ex-
pressed great faith in the work of the
medical fraternity Nwith reference to
bovme tuberculosis and declared it to
be the belief of the veterinary profes
sion that tuberculosis in cattle can be
transmitted to human beings and that
the course of the milk sanitarians! of
the country looking toward the elim-
ination of tuberculosis from the milk
supply is to be highly commended.

I HADN'T talked to him five minutes
before I knew that I didn't like him
never could like him and yet he
was a very good looking man and to
all appearances very agreeable andln-
teresting. Don't vou know thh.t there are some
men for whom you feel an instinctive
repulsion without exactly knowing the
reason?
That was the way I felt; it was a
case of "I do not like you Doctor Fell;
the reason why I cannot tell; but still
I do not like you Doctor Fell."
As the days went by I knew better
why I disliked him.
HI Manner Tovrard Women.
He had a way of talking to a woman
as though he were humoring her all
the time.
He would concede her side in an ar-
gument but you knew it was because
he was thinking "Oh well you are
only a woman; what difference does it
make what you think? You are not
worth arguing with."
Then I knew that though outwardly
polite to women he had little respect
for them.
One day I watched a sentle little wo-
man talking to him. They were hav-
ing a discussion and though her
views on the subject' did not amount to
anything she was doing her best-
Some one.called her away and when
she left he turned to the man next him
and winked.
I could have struck him for that dis-
courtesy; and how I hated him for it!
The Saddest of Marriages. "j
I think the least happy marriage in
the world is the one where the husband
"condescends." His wife is .merely a
possession on whom to scatter favors
when the mood seizes him.
She is never taken into .his confi-
dences but Is supposed to be -duly
grateful for the honor of bearing his
children and making life comfortaole
for him.
I would rather a man beat me than
"condescend." Nothing Is more mad-
dening than to be treated as a doll..
How little girls know about the men
they admit to their friendship.
If l man is good looking dashing
and gay and ready to spend money
the average girl accepts him on his
face value.
She tells him her secrets; allows him
many privileges; enters Into correspon-
dence with him.
After a month's acquaintance she Is
ready to marry him.
Trusts Her Future to Him.
She trusts her precious future to the
hands of a man she knows absolutely
nothing about.
And her mother sits complacently by
and congratulates herself that her girl
is ma .ig a good match.
What is a good match?
Is it money and position; or is it the
care and love and protection which
only a good and kind man can give a
woman?
Do you think you would be happy
with .he type of man who winks when
a woman turns her back?
Do j-ou think a man of that typer
capable of nice feeling? And yet on
the surface this man appears very de-
sirable; he is good looking rich and
very entertaining.
But it is the hours that you spend
alone with a man that must be reck-
oned with.
To marry a man whom you thought
a model of kindliness and chivalry and
then to find him sordid rough and
coarse mindedi would mean desperate
disillusionment for anj- pure-minded
woman.
The wives can only regret but the
girls can beware.
Know All About Your Man.
Don't marry a man until you know
something about him. When ho- is
courting his manner toward you may
be above reproach; but how about his
manner toward other women?
How does he treat old people? How
does he speak of them?

Grecian empire until the establishment
of a veterinary school in Lyon ml 2
the profession was at a comyieic owuu-
stlll. The possibility of the inter-transmission
of disease between 'animal and
man was suggested first by Vegetius
Renatus. about the time of the dawning
of the Christian era and although ha
possessed none of the equipment which
has enabled modern medical men ta
study the relation of animal life and
disease he discussed the matter with a
thoroughness and intelligence that has
made his tame a landmark in the his-
tory of human and veterinary medicine.
In many parts of Europe and in some
of the important cities of the United
States hospitals for animals are main-
tained. At the London Zoo there is an
infirmary for the treatment of the
denizens of that institution. Lions and
tigers are treated like cats while
wolves hyenas and bears are treated
as if they were overgrown dogs. The
rhinocerous responds to the kind ot
treatment accorded the horse while the
hippopotamus is found to demand such
therapeutic care as is given to the pig.
Higli Salaried 3Iea.
Some veterinary surgeons are paid
highly for their services. One of these
is Alfred Sewell canine surgeon to the
king of England. He wears the rega-
lia that shows he holds a position of no
small rank in the royal household and
often goes to St. Petersburg and Ber-
lin to prescribe for the pets of the czar
and kaiser. He is a great believer in
the rest cure for pets and often pre-
scribes a trip to southern Europe for
the dogs and cats of roj-alty. On
these trips the royal pets are accompa-
nied bj- their retinue of attendants to
make sure that all goes well with their
charges.
It is said that there is a pet cat t
known as Dr. Ginger with headquarters
at Bellevue hospital in New York- The
doctor liad the misfortune to get a fish
bone in. its throat so it performed an
operation known as trachestomy on its j
own throat. The only instruments usea
were the claws given it by nature and
the oniy antiseptic- was the frequent
lickings with its own tongae. Dr. Gin-
j ger has entirely recovered and stands
at the head of the list of animals op-
erating upon themselves.
Preventive Measures Used.
' Preventive medicine Is no less a sci-
ence with the modern veterinarian than
curative medicine and in the past de-
cade or two splendid results have been
obtained from precautionary measures.

just a little bit of good.
And while we are on the topic of se-
lection of men friends don't forget that
nothing is more unwise than writing
letters to men whom you barely know.
No ResAcct for Her Letters.
There are many men who have no re-
spect for a girl's letter oind who wfll
show it to other men and laugh at it
or even worse boast of it.
Do you care for your letters to meet
that fate?
F the fairy godmother of tradition
were hovering above the cradle of
any girl baby in whicn I had an
especial interest I shojiid pray her to
besaow upon the tiny occupant of the
crib as her best gift good nature.
I should not ask for beauty n'or wit
nor genius nor wealth but just the gen-
uine easy-going abilitj' to take life as
It comes with cheerful smilingness and
without getting nerves or hysterics and
a vinegary disposition.
When we enumerate the qualities that
go to make a successful woman we talk
about ner lo'oks or her Intelligence or
her talents but none of these are the
potent charm to conjure with that good
nature Is. It Is the real philosopher's
stone that works magic andYthat opens
every door for Its happy possessor.
The Really Populcr Girl.
Wonderful and marvelous are its
powers. Does a girl yearn for the
admiration of men to be a belle and
have. a train of suitors hanging about
her? Who does? Not the beauty who
is-generally sniffy. Not tne living
picture wno says catty little things
apout other women and whose con-
versational claws draw blood every
time she reaches them out toward a
new subject. Not the peroxided dream
of a( houri whq Is difficult and hard
.to please and who has a discontented
and disgruntled atitude toward iife.
Ninety-nine times out of a hundred
the popular girl in any community is
Just an ordinary looking girl with no
pretensions to any especial good looks
or intelligence or style. But she is
good natured. S.he is willing to divide
her chocolate creams wifcn- all the other
girls. She tries to make everybody
have a good time and is ever ready to
listen with sympathy to the tale of a
man's success or his failure.
She isn't hard to please. Lord bless
you no. She enjoys everything that
comes along and men flock about her
like bees about a honey pot just be-
cause she is as sweet and wholesome
and sunshiny as an old-fashioned flower
garden In May.
If a woman wants to be a successful j
wife why ner best asset is also good
nature. In domestic life an aunce of
amiability and cheerfulness is .worth a
ton of gilt edge theories about how to
keep a husband.
A great many women who are perfect
models of all the domestic virtues
whose houses are as neat as pins whose
dinners are always well cooked and
who do tneir duty to the last hair won-
der why it is that their husbands wan-
der from the domestic fireside wftHe
the husband of some other woman who
isn't half as good a manager can't be
Inveigled outside of his own door.
The answer to the conundrum Is
good nature. Many a good wife spoils
all of the results of her labors and her
sacrifices by being cross and querulous

thoroughbred cattle were shipped south
because of the fact that from 70 to 90
percent of those shipped died within a
comparatively short time after their
arrival on the southern farms. Since

to southern points and the cattle and

and fault finding and exacting and
nagging. We don't always love martvrs
and enjoy' their society as we should
particularly y-hen they martyrize them-
selves for our sakes and Insist on tell-
ing us what we have made them suffer.
But none of us can ever get enougn of
the company of the cheerful ORtimist
who thinks this is a pretty good old
Srld and that we are about the best
ings In it.
Men who have married beauties have
wearied of them. Men have divorced
wits and deserted geniuses but no man
ever yet found -matrimony a failure
Who was married to a woman who
could leaven their daily life with good
nature who could laugh at mistakes
who didn't hold him up to an impos-
sible standard and nvho was ready to
meet the exigencies of existence with
cheerfulness and common sense.
The Snccessfnl Mothers.
And it is tne good naured women
who are really successful mothers too.
The mp&ners who have the greatest in-
fluence over their children are not
those that sacrifice the most for their
offsprings or the mothers who spend
most time praying over cheir ohil-
dren as a sacred duty or the mothers
who raise their children according to
cut-and-drled child ""culture rules.
The mothers wnese tehildren adore
them are the mothers who are good
natured who laugh with their children
who don't look upon childish pecadil-
loes as cardinal sins. The most tender
memories tha any of us have are of
some good natured woman mother or
grandmother or perhaps an aunt -wno
didn't scold when we tore our clothes
nor lecture when we robbed the cookie
jar.
The Business Success.
Finally in business good nature is
not only a woman s best asset it Is
almost a" necessity to her success."" It
does not make any difference how-
much talent a woman has unless she
Is easy to get along with men simply
won't have her around.
We all wonder why Miss So-and-So
who is so competent never can keep
a job as a stenographer. The answer
is soat she possesses a razor-edged tem-
per and every time any correction is
made in her work she flies into the
sulks.
We are surprised that Miss What's-Her-Name
who is really an artist with
her needle has never been able to make
a living as a dressmaker. The reason
is simple enough. She offends her cus-
tomers and is so ill-natured that she
drives them away. We don't have to
put up with disagreeable people you
know unless we are married to them
or they are members of our own fam-y-
Good nature is woman's cftief charm
and when she has that all else shall
be added unto It.
