DO THINK THAT A BUSINESS CAREER TENDS TO UNFIT A
WOMAN FOR COOKING AND KEEPING. HOUSE, BUT I AL80
THINK THAT THE OFTEN ER THI8 HAPPENS THE BETTER.
It is not necessary that the ideal wife should be a house-
! lii-re is a too general confusion between the duties and ob
' marriage and the demands of household management. A
love a man enough to marry him, to mako him her clwst

nl I do not see that this reservation unfits her for wifV
i systematized condition of home work at present the low
in an office offers higher development than the so called
i ir. The trouble with housework is that women have no
:! no competition.

i. tit. SHE IS WHAT SHE IS, and there exists no
niike her letter. Ncr work is not judged by an ideal or
f another. Therefore household labor has fallen to a

Old Glory or the Red Rag:
Nightly on the streets of Portland loud-mouthed agi
tators blaspheme the name of the Lord and curse the Star
Spangled Banner. They are reaching out into the smaller
communities and it may be your turn next to contend with
them. Read and Vote No. 370 in Voters' Pamphlet.
Assaulting the Dignity of Labor
High salaried agitators are constantly assaulting and
maiming the honest laboring men of Portland who are un
willing to divide their earnings with these leaches on the
decent labor element. Read and vote No. 3G8 and prohibit
boycotting and picketing. Your son is not safe in Portland
if he refused to support these crime instigators.

A Royal Prank.
The legend that Tavolura Is an Inde

Charles Albert reached Terranova,

Sardinia. Here Paul Bertoleonl was
presented to the king as the represents
the of Tavolara, an Island seven miles
away. He informed his majesty that
all the Inhabitants of the island were

his knee us a subject and rose a king.

Weight of a Piece of Ico.
,A rough and ready method of cal
culating the weight of a piece of Ice
Is afforded by the fact that a cubic
foot of this substance weights approil
mately 57.25 pounds. First measure
the breadth, length and height of the
cake, and the three results, being mul
tiplied, will give the number of cubic
Inches. If this answer be In turn
multiplied by 0.33 the approximate
number of pounds will result. For In
stance, a cake 8 by 0 by 10 inches
contains 720 cubic Inches. This multi
piled by .033 gives 23 pounds, the
correct weight of such a piece of Ice

Go dig a bole in the ground and set
a post five or six feet high. Nail a
tick across the top. Tie a fine string
to a ring three Inches In diameter and
suspend It from the end of the stick.
Break up a diamond If yon make
the error of wearing one and centering
your mind on the useless bauble rather
than upon nature and her majestic
laws; select a minute fragment so
mall that if spherical seventy -one side
by aide would make a row one Inch
long and suspend the tiny globe by
means of a fine fiber of silk In the
center of the ring.
Then walk away on a straight Una
9.81 miles, turn around and look back.
The ring would be Invlalble, and It
would require the keeneat eye to see
the post If Indeed any could see It
Get a good telescope and you might
Just see the ring against the sky on a
white background, but the diamond
would be invisible.
Come op here, get the sixteen Inch
telescope, try It and the diamond
sphere could not be seen. Go get
forty or sixty Inch telescope, still the
diamond would not come Into view.
Then get a 8,000,000 candle power
electric arc searchlight and by means
of a big lens concentrate the light on
the diamond. Then a much smaller
telescope would reveal It
Go to the giant star sun, Slrlus, the

HE D1DNT LIKE WHIGS.
And He Had Na Use For Portrait of
Henry Clay.
In Daviess county, Ky., at the time
when Henry Clay was running for the
presidency against General Jackson,
there lived a plain. Industrious farmer.
He was an ardent politician, noted for
bis hostility to Clay and his party. But
his Interest In politics did not make
hi ib Indifferent to bis wife's happl
ness. While In town one day he
thought he would surprise the good
woman by presenting her with a set
of new dishes. He selected an at
tractive pattern, and as he was In a
hurry did not examine the dishes close
ly, but had them packed and placed In
his wagon.
His wife was delighted with the gift
but no slight examination satisfied her
feminine curiosity. In turning over a
dish she discovered on the under side
a portrait of Henry Clay. Every piece
was thus marked. To tease her hus
band she asked him tha cause of his
"sudden change of politics.''
"Change of politics!" shouted the
husband, as excited as If he had been
charged with a crime. "What do you
meenT"
Thereupon she showed him the por
trait on the china. Aa If he were rid
dins himself of a noxious thing, the
farmer gathered np every dish and,
carrying them to the door, broke them
Into fragments on the stone steps. He
purchased another set of dishes In a
few days, but not until be had made
sure that there was no Whig politi
cian's portrait on them. Youth's Com

Why Should a Woman?
Why should a woman be born, educated, married, di
vorced and buried under laws made exclusively by men.
The right to govern is conferred by the governed and
the governed are not exclusively males, the governed are
men and women, for women are responsible before the law.
Why, if we desire to be just and fair, should we not
allow the women to exercise what should be an equal right
with man.
