.CHILD'S STRANGE DEATH.
Mothers Will be Particularly Inter
ested In Circumstances.
Physicians are puzzled over the
death of the 15-months-old babe of
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Strathouse, says
the Boise Statesman. The child was
sleeping in a preambulator that stood
upstairs in the house. About 4
o'clock Monday afternoon, the grand
father of the child, who is a member
of th-household, happened to be up
stairs and noticed that the babe
was lying motionless. He remarked
that the little one, whom the hot
weather had made listless, was lying
sleeping quietly. A few minutes la
terthe mother of the babe made the
discovery that the little one was
dead.
Two physicians were hastily sum
moned who tried to resusticate the
child, but without avail. The doctors
at flrBt were unable to account for
the fatality, but later come to the
conclusion that the babe met its
death in a strange manner. A strap
was found fastened over the buggy
and the child in its struggles had
pushed its clothing up in such a way
that it was crowded under the strap
and exerted a heavy pressure just
over the heart of the babe. It is
thought, that the pressure was suffi
clent to stop the action of the heart.
No other cause of death could be as'
signed, as tho child was perfectly
healthy.

TO MATCHMAKER8.
Suggestions to Those Who Would
Meddle With Cupid's Darts.
I consider .parents guilty of tho
most criminal selfishness who no
gleet to arm their daughters for tho
battle of life just as they wculd arm
their sons. What would be said of
people who would glvo their boys no
education, and never trained them In
any profession or lino of luslness?
It Is exactly as bad to loavo one's
girls without an attract'on and then
blame them for not making gjod mar
riages. I am sure that a woman who Is a
flirt by nature never suiYeru even
over an unfortunato lovo alfuir, llko
her more conscientious nlater. She
has Buch a capacity of easily shift
ing from .one lover to another that
she Is always opon to consolation.
A truly clover man never falls lu
lovo with a fool.
If a clever man preferrt'J a fool
why should not a clover woman do
likewise?
The chances were far more In favor
of a happy marriage whoro the hu"
band was the fool than -Lero the
wife waB.
A girl never looks more charming
than when she Ib watering flowers or
gathering fruit. I can't pay why U
is. but Jhe fact remains that a man
finds her under these conditions in-
res'stlble.
A mother should novor seem glad
to bo rid of her daughter; their vul
uo is. only enhanced In a man's oyer
If she shows a reluctance to pari
with them. From " The CoofesBlons
of a Matchmaking Mothor."
Tho crown prlnco of Slarn Is com
