A Modal Woman
The best natured woman in
the United States lives in Austin.
She has been married a number
of yesrs to a man named Fergu-
son, but she and her husband
have never had a quarrel yet and
he has frequently boasted that it
is utterly impossible to make her
rngry. Ferguson made several
desperate attempts to see if he
could not exasperate her to look
cross or scowl at him, but the
more outrageously he acted the
more affable and loving she be-
haved.
he v < i c show some signs of
annoyance. Ferguson said he
did not like to rob a friend of his
money, for he knew he would
win; but they at last made the
bet of $50, the friend to hide in
the front yard to watch the pro-
ceedings through the window.
Ferguson came home late ap-
parently lightning drunk. She
met him at the gate, kissed him
and assisted his tottering steps
to the house. He sat down hard
in the middle of the floor, and
howled out;
“Confound your ugly picture
what did you mean by pulling
that chair from under me?”
“Oh, I hope you didn’t hurt
yourself. It is my awkward-
ness, but I’ll try and not do so
again,’’ and she helped him to
his feet, although she had had
nothing in the world to do with
his falling.
He then sat down on the sofa,
and sliding off on the floor,
abused her like a pickpocket for
lifting up the other end of the
sota, all of which she took good
naturedly, and finally she led him
to the supper table. He threw a
plate at her, but she acted as if
she had not noticed P, and asked
him if he would take tea or cof-
fee. Then the brute seized the
tablecloth and sat down on the
Last week he was talking to a
friend about *what a hard time floor pulling the dishes and ev-
he had trying to find out his er>’thing else over 1
wife had a temper. The friend
offered to bet $50.00 that if Fer-
guson were to go home drunk,
raise a row and pull the table-
cloth full of dishes off the table
with him in
one general crash.
What did this noble woman do?
Do you suppose she grumbled
and talked about going home to
her ma, or that she sat down and
cried like a fool or that she sulk-
ed or pouted? Not a bit of it
With a pleasant smile, she said:
“Why, George! that’s a new
idea, ain’t it? We have been
married ten years and have never
y3t ate our supper on the floor.
Won’t it be fun-just like those
picnics we used to go to before
we got married?” An then this
angelic woman deliberately sat
down on the floor alongside of
the wretch, arranged the dishes
and fixed him up a nice supper.
This broke George up. He
owned up he was only fooling
her and offered to give her the
$50 to get her a new hat, but
she took the money and bought
him a new suit of clothes and a
box of cigars.

Fun
During next week we will have a special demonstration from
the Majestic Factory to explain how the Majestic is made aid
why it is absolutely the best range; why it lasts longer and
cuts down repair expenses; why it bakes bread evenly, top
sides and bottom without turning; why it uses so little fuel and
saves food waste. He will explain its labor-saving construc-
tion and why it heats an abundance of water, good and hot-,
a mighty convenient and useful thing to have a big supply of
hot water always on hand, isn’t it? To buy a range by guess
is almost certain to end in disappointm >nt and loss of money.
It may be “exactly as represented,’’ yet not what you though
it was nor what you wanted. . . . Here you can see every
part of the Majestic—you can know what you are getting be-,
fore you buy. Decide now that you will discontinue using that
old, worn-out range. You will save money in fuel, repairs and
cooking. Buy a Majestic-the range with 25 years reputation.
The demonstrator will ansewer any question relating to stoves.
