The
•‘Twilight Sleep" Idea is a
beautiful one. Anything that lends
U> reduce pain and suffering is to be
welcomed. But twilight sleep is
nothing new in this part of the coun-
try. W e know of some towns that
are in a chronic state of twilight
slumber and they will never “come
to. Some of our own citizens,
mentioning uo names, go about from
day to day in a nover-ending twilight
slumber. And looking over our list
of delinquent subscribers makes us
rise to Inquire what the doctors use
to bring their twilight sleepers out
of the trance? Send us the formula,
for there are a few subjects on Hint
list whom we like to awaken Did
we call them twilight sleepers?

“Oh' for the days of good old fash-
ioned women!"
The exclamation sounded only amus-
ing. coming as It did from the lips of
a very modern young man. His frleud
on the other side of the fireplace
laughed.
I unit ice you seem rather fond of
the young women of today, Judglhg
trorn your attentions to her, individ-
ually and severally.''
That’s JUBt It. It's a case of safety
in numbers—a vain struggle to And
one out of thousands who isn't Inter-
ested In fads or politics or business,
o: any one of a thousand other things
1 prefer a frivolous woman. A wom-
an has no business being serious about
anything In the world but her home
and her husband and her bubles; but
every girl of my acquaintance has
some particular lad and goes in for It
with ail her might. 1 thought 1 had
found my ideal in Mary Jenkins, and be-
hold! she is a collie fancier, wjth
keiinela that are famous and a hus-
band in the perspective not half as
Interesting to her as a man with a
good dog that she can ndd to her
stock Every other girl Is doing set-
tlement work, or newspaper work, or
sculpturing, or painting, or writing
stories, or attending suffragette meet-
ings. 1 want a wife, aud 1 want her
to he Just a loving little fool woman
who will be extravagant If she feels
like It, or silly, or anything she pleases,
just bo she loves me, and kisses me
when I come home at night, and fusses
about my slippers and my flannels.’’
His friend pondered a moment. “I
know Just the sort of a girl you'll
like Shull 1 arrange an Introduc
tlon ?"
Surest thing you know! What’s her
name?"
"Peggy PerklUB. Like It?"
“Sounds promising. If 1 had a
name like tliut I'd never change it
Do you suppose she would?"
"Mrs Harold L'lurk might sound bet-
ter to her. You're not Buch an Inel-
igible rascal, you know."
Billy's sister, Margaret Wilde, hap-
pened to be at home and Idle when
her brother called. They spent a
merry hour conspiring, and Billy bore
away with Irtn the promised dluner
Invitation which Clark lost no time
In accepting.
If ever any one looked like her name
sounded, It was the vision which
greeted Harold Clark when the eve
ning of the dinner brought them all
together. Little, dark, vivacious,
merry and utterly charming was his
verdict after five minutes. In ten he
had found her tile very kindest.
sweeteBt and most sympathetic
woman he hud ever met. She had an
appealing way of looking Into Ills
eyeB while he talked that quite wou
him. Here at least was a really old
fashioned girl, whose husband would
be actually lord and master, not mere
ly the nominal head of the bouse
hold. Here was the woman who would
always be womanly. She talked of
teas and receptions and dressmakers
to Margaret; of books and plays with
Billy; and of art and poetry with Har
old. Her views were her own, un
doubtedly, but she was not opinion
ated. Just sweetly feminine. Only one
thing puzzled Harold. Billy aud Mur
garet and Margaret's husband seemed
half convulsed with laughter most of
the evening, and especially when Har
old began some tirade against the
doings of militant sufTragettes. and
went on to score women who persist
ed in entering Uelds of endeavor be
longing to men. Miss Perkins only
smiled, however, and made no com
meat, and Harold waa already too
much In love to mind.
Weeks went by, and he became a
frequent caller at Miss Perkins home
Here she seemed the stay and comfort
of her Invalid mother aud certainly
the pet of her devoted father. Mrs
Perkins wore daintily made and em
broldered costumes. “My Peggy's
work." she called them, proudly, and
the house was full of flowers, books
and kittens, all of them Peggy's. Only
one thing worried Harold. He could
never And Miss Perkins at home in
daytime, aud now and then her moth-
er made vague allusions to "dear
Peggy’s tasks;” but Clark never dared
ask questions
Finally, one beautiful afternoon In
early spring he met Peggy Just outside
the door of her home. She was dressed
In a most businesslike costume, and
Instead of the pretty basket her arms
were full of papers and documents, and
she looked a bit tired, but she greeted
Clark cordially, and they went Into the
house together.
"1 want you to marry me, Peggy,
darling," he said, aa l hey stood in the
little drawing room odorous with early
violets.
“But you won't Interfere with my
work when we are married, will you,
dear?" she asked a moment later, rais-
ing her head from his shoulder.
Visions of a sweetly charitable wife
filled Harold’s brain. "Certainly not.
my own. Hut you haven’t told me yet
what your work Is."
“Oh, I thought you knew, dear. I

State league. Wld, aa he Is known to
the fans, has never had any previous
experience as a diamond pilot and hts

ing with the Rochester club In the In-
ternational league.
Despite the fact that the St. Louis
Feds got away to a fine start and led
the league by a good margin, St. Louis
writers are enthusing over the Brook-
feds. They say Bradley’s team will be
"In the hunt" all the way, with a glori-
ous chance to annex the pennant.
If anyone wants to get Manager
Ooorge Stallings angry he simply has
to refer to him as "a good loser."

pitcher, has been lost to the nine

MANGLED BOY DEFIES PAIN
One Leg Severed, the Other Crushed,
He Refuses Drugs Until Death
Comes.
Wilkes-Barre, Pa.—A remarkable
exhibition of fortitude under pain wit-
nessed here the other day brought
tears to the eyes of railroad men and
police who carried the mangled body
of fourteen-year-old William Harkius
to the Mercy hospital.
With one leg severed at the hip and
the other smashed to a pulp from the
knee down, the lad told how he had
attempted to ride a freight train and
had fallen under the wheels.
For more than three hours young
Harkins remained conscious, refusing
to take drugs until he died.

Notwithstanding the fact that he

to sell some of the hogs at $5.25 a
