CONSULT YOUR WIFE.
If you contemplate some- important
etep in business without" consulting
your wife
Don't:
Her woman's insight is likely to be
worth as much as your deliberate rea
soning. Some one says:
"When a man has toiled step by
step up a tlight of stairs to the top of
some accomplishment lie will be sure
to tind a woman, though she may not
be able to tell how she got there."
A man readies his conclusion by
the slow steps of deliberate logic. In
stinctively a woman reaches it by a
single bound.
Especially is the average woman
quick to see the right and wrong of a
proposition. Jumping over subtle dis
tinctions and. evasive phrasing, she
lands at once on the sure ground of
eternal lightness.
Ethically woman is a seer.
Most of all, clear and wide are the
eyes of a wife in a matter involving
the good name of her family.
When in doubt consult your wife.
A wife's judgment is usually good in
business matters. With her keen in
sight into human nature she often
will be able to tell you whether or not
you may trust a man.
Give your honor into her keeping.
There was Victoria Colonna, one of
the strong women of history, ner
husband was a loyal friend of the
great Charles V. At one time Colonna
was offered the crown of Naples if he
would join the league against Charles.
Though strongly tempted, he asked
his wife's advice. She bade him reject
the offer.
Not every woman would refuse to be
queen.
But most wives would!
Because the project meant base be
trayal and treachery, and the heart of
a true woman is turned against such
baseness.
Even from a prudential point of
view the advice of Colonna's wife was
good. To be promised a thing is not
always to get it.
Make your wife your partner.
She is your best friend, the most
vitally concerned in your outcome. She
is your most competent and honest
counselor. If she is a normal woman
she will keep your feet out of the mire
of wrongdoing.
Take no important step without a
conference with her. She will be glad
and proud to have your confidence and
may be able to suggest ways and
means of accomplishment.
"Two heads are better than one,"
especially if one is a woman's head.

woolen fabric are particularly smart

How to Pack a Trunk.
A woman who is constantly travel-,
ing and yet who finds it most neces
sary to economize in space as well as
In pennies has found the following
plan for packing her one trunk a most
excellent one: At the bottom of the
trunk she has a partition made large
enough to carry one large or two small
hats. This is strongly made, so that it
cannot easily be broken. At the side
of this partition she places a wooden
box filled with sawdust, in which are
her bottles of medicine. Here, too, she
lays her shoes, each pair, carefully
rolled in linen covers. On one set of
shoes she puts her pair of rubbers, and
inside the shoes she places her boxes
of pills or powders which would not go
into the box of medicine.
Then she has six or eight pieces of
heavy cardboard cut to exactly fit the
trunk. These. she covers with linen or
chintz, so that they look exactly like
large envelopes, with straps or strings
to fasten down the flaps. In these huge
envelopes she pins her dresses, skirt
waists, etc. Two or three dresses1 can
usually be put in each envelope. Every
thing is kept absolutely flat, and noth
ing can be pushed to one end of the
trunk when it is stood on end.
At the top of the trunk is a shallow
tray, in which she puts, her laces, .rib
bons, veils and gloves, etc. The under
wear Is rolled and placed around the
edges of the trunk or is folded flat and
laid between the envelopes.

IS AGAINST DARROW
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Aug. 5.
Judge Hutton ruled today in the brib
ery trial of Clarence S. Darrow that
the defendant under cross-examination
could be asked an impeaching
question, based upon the stenograph
ic report of a conversation between
Darrow and John R. Harrington, his
former chief investigator.
The ruling opens the way for an at
tempt by the prosecution to introduce
in rebuttal the transcript of the con
versations, as heard by stenographers
through a telephonic device. Such an
effort will be strenuously opposed by
the defense, chiefly on the ground
that the transcript contains only fra
gmentary portions of the conversa
tions. Judge Hutton announced that
his ruling could not be construed as
having any bearing on the introduc
tion of the transcript,
Mr. Darrow then resumed the wit
ness stand and was questioned by as
sistant District Attorney Ford as to
the circumstances surrounding his
meetings with Harrington, over the
objection of the defense. Darrow ad
mitted that he had asked Harrington
to refuse to testify before the Federal
Grand Jury. He said he told Har
rington he did not think he could be
compelled to testify and he ould find
out by refusing.
Ford read a long question, asking
Darrow among other things if Har
rington had not said to him:
"Darrow, they have the goods on
you and are going to get you."
'"I don't know or care if such a con
versation ever occurred,' replied Dar
row. Attorney Rogers advised Darrow
not to answer a question concerning
a conversation with Harrington, in
which they were said to have discuss
ed the alleged bribery money.
To another lengthy question, Dar
row replied by asking his inquisitor
of he could not "run it in sections?"
Darrow said that Harrington had told
him he feared an indictment of him
self for bribery-
"He told me all the authorities
wanted was 'Schmitty' " said Darrow,
"and that I could get out of my trou
ble by turning up 'Schmitty.'"
Schmidt was one of the alleged dy
namiters of the Times' building.
"Did you think Harrington was try
ing to trap you with the dictagraph?"
asked Ford.
"No, I didn't think any one would
try to do a thing as mean as that, not
even the District Attorney."
Quick Worker.
Manager of Firm Your former em
ployer tells me that you were the
quickest bookkeeper in the place.
Applicant for Situation (dubiously)
He does?
"Yes. He says you could throw the
books in the safe, lock up, wash and
get ready to go home in just one min
ute and ten seconds." t
Rude.
"Well," said Mrs. Bruggins after a
solo by a fashionable church choir ten
or, "if that ain't the rudest thing I ever
saw!"
"WThat?" Inquired her niece.
"Why, didn't you notice it? Just as
soon as that young man began to sing
every 'other member of the choir stop
ped. But he went right through with
it, and I must say I admire his spunk."
HIGH PRICE OF BEEF
The Portland Union Stock Yards
Company reports as follows:
, Receipts for the week have been
cattle 1094 calves 82; hogs 866;
sheep 6150; horses 86.
The cattle market has remained !
strong to higher.
There has' been a great amount of
agitation with regard to high prices
of beef, and while the agitators seek
to find a bug under the chip in price
manipulation by the killers, there has
been no satisfactory solution from
that source. The real and only rea
son for the continual high price of
beef is its absolute and undeiable
shortage. If the rate afwhich calves
and she stuff is being marketed is
maintained it will only be a few years
until this country will rank with the
countries of Europe in the great scar
city of beef. The mutton supply of
fers a temporary substitute but "as
beef gets scarce and mutton receiv
es more attention it will only be a
fewears until mutton prices will
makes its use as costly as beef. The
opportunity for profit making in beef
raising was never so great as at this
time and when it is considered that
permanent fortunes in the cattle in
dustry have followed breeding and
raising as against the losses in steer
speculation, the attractivenes of the
cattle breeding ranch can be easily
discerned.

ORDER.
Order is a lovely nymph, the child

tendants are comfort, neatness and
activity. Her abode is the valley

found when sought for and never
is so lovely as when compared with"
her opponent, disorder. Johnson.
Comical In His Ugliness.
Voltaire was the ugliest man of his
age. Emaciated to a skeleton, all the
features of his countenance were ex
aggerated. His nose and chin nearly
met from the lack of teeth; his cheeks
were sunken and wrinkled: his eyes
set so far- back in his head and so
obscured by shaggy, overhanging
brows as to be almost invisible. He
usually wore a large wig, from the
midst of which his attenuated features
peeped out with comical effect For
years before he died his weight did
not exceed ninety pounds.

and one behind, but the-woodpecker
has two in front and two behind.
