In the current Saturday Evening PoBt is an article by a Frenchman dealing with his impressions of American women. The Frenchman has a very high opinion of the beauty of our American women, but criticises them severely for the self reliance they show. This Frenchman believes all women should be shy and retiring and allow the men to show the masterful qualities. He says that in the old day3 the men stood on the firing line and the women stood behind me ramparts and were a source of Bilent encouragement to those at the front. According to him this is still the case In France and other European countries and the women there occupy about the same relations in life that they did during the stormy times of the medieval ages. In America, however, our Frenchman says the women have come right down to the firing line with the men and, in some cases, have even crowded the men out of the way. He accounts for this strange reliance on the part of our women by saying that it is due to the great chivalry the American men show in their relations with their women. Chivalry may have something to do with it, but we are inclined to think the early history of the country will do more o clear up the mystery as far as Mr. Frenchman is concerned. America has always been the pioneer country of the world In the sense that her new lands are always being settled and placed under cultivation. Two centuries ago when the first American pioneer broke ground in this part of the country he brought his wife with him and if they were attacked by Indians, depended upon her to do her share in defending the homestead. So we see that the American women started being self reliant several centuries ago, and they have handed the quality

down .through many generations to the

present day nor confined it altogether to their women descendants. On the contrary our self-reliant mothers have

made our men self reliant, a fact that stands unchallenged in view of the progress America has made compared

to the progress of other nations.

The European idea of women as even

this Frenchman expressed it is that the

wife should be the slave of the husband. He declared that no European woman would ever dare try to advise her husband in regard to business matters, because she didn't know anything about business ordinarily. And then he criticised the Amarlcan woman because she did deign to offer business advice to her husband and because she took an interest in his business. This stand on his part leads us to believe

that Europe, after centuries of experience, still only lives for the present and is forgetful of the future. In America we live for the present, but we also have an eye out for the future and that Is why we want our wives to know something about our business, realizing that knowledge will be of inestimable value should we be taken from earth. For in America, despite our chivalry, there are always men who will try to get hold of the savings of widows and orphans If they can. It is self-protection that makes us make our women so self-reliant. Two heads are often better than one and that is

one reason why we value their advice. And when we are gone we want our womankind to be able to protect themselves and children from the scavengers that are always willing to prey on the undefended. And from the way some of our American girls are married off to European "noblemen" we do not believe all the scavengers are of American origin.

did not think Mr. Roosevelt should run for the presidency again,- Mr. Roosevelt has declared he will not run for the nomination again but what is he to do if we hand him the nomination on a silver platter and tell him he must take it? Eut for Mr. Bryan to be so solicitous about Mr. Roosevelt accepting the nomination again is strange and we can't figure out the reason for it. Mr. Roosevelt has made good and has proved his ability as an executive as well as a theorist, and that is something Mr. Bryan has not done. Mr. Bryan has proved to be a beautiful theorist but has never yet shown himself to be a great or even medium executive. Therefore inasmuch as Mr. Bryan will undoubtedly be the democratic nominee for the presidency, why would it not be better for us to keep Mr. Roosevelt in of

fice rather than exchange him, a tried and proven man, for Mr. Bryan, an untried and rather uncertain man?

HE WILL RETIRE, AS MINERS' PRESIDENT.

Centerville, Ind., Oct. 11. Mrs. Laura

Commons entertained a party of forty ladies at her home a short distance south of Centerville Wednesday after

noon. The party was given complimentary to Mrs. Ella Thomas and her daughter, Miss Elizabeth Thomas, who have come to Centerville to reside during the winter. Mrs. Commons was assisted in entertaining by Miss Louise Hammon of Richmond and Misses Edith Barnes and Mae Draw, Centerville. The floral decorations of the rooms consisted mainly of dahlias, the prevailing color being crimson, with the exception of pink dahlias, with which one of the rooms was embellished. A scheme of red and green was carried out. The gorgeous display oi the autumn queen of the garden

might well be named an exhibition of dahlias. And, moreover, all of these

beauties were raised by Mrs. Com

mons on her home grounds. Red dahl

ias were used as favors.

The day being pleasant, it admitted

of spending a portion of the afternoon out of doors, and some contests !n

physical exercises were provided. Progressive euchre was engaged in by many of the guests in the parlor. Fruit

punch was served during the afternoon

and at the conclusion of the games a

delightful luncheon was enjoyed.

The guests besides Mrs. Thomas and

Miss Elizabeth Thomas were Mrs. Wal ter McConaha, Miss Bessie Buhl, Mrs

WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN. That William Jennings Bryan has

come back to political life seems to be assured by the rousing ovation he

received at Bloomfield, Wednesday. But that only goes to show what a remarkable man he is and always has been. Twice defeated and once overlooked, Mr. Bryan Is today the strongest and most popular man in the democrat party. And that even in the face of the fact that his issue in his first campaign free silver has been proven a fallacy. Now at Bloomfield, Mr. Bryan said one thing with which we feel we must take issue. He talked

about the tmra term idea in a manner to leave no room for doubt that he

cent rate law:

"Following the lead of the Ohio legislature, other bodies of Iowa, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri have during the year enacted laws limiting the passenger rate to two cents per mile. "While these laws have not been effective during the fiscal year, and we cannot determine accurately their results, it is quite clear that they must. If remaining in force, seriously affect our passenger revenues. "The effect of the interurban lines upon our passenger business is plainly indicated in the decreased number

of passengers carried, while the in

crease in the length of the average

journey and the revenue per passenger show clearly that the electric lines are being used more extensively for the shorter tripe, leaving the steam roads only the long haul business, unless perhaps there are no

Fair Faces Marred by Signs of Silent Suffering A woman's features quickly

and a sallow complexion tell of anaemia's ravages; while low spirits, indigestion and backaches complete hr miseries.

To the suffering sex at all ages, Dr. Williams Pink Pills give a helping hand and the joy of full health by increasing, enriching, and purifying the blood. Mrs. Evelyn Creusere, of 8il Boulevard West, Detroit, Mich., says: "My trouble began about six years ago and after a time I became so weak I could not do any work at all. I had severe backaches and such dreadful headaches in the back part and top of my head. My eyes were easily tired and at times I saw black spots before them. I consulted several doctors but without the slightest benefit. "I lost continually in weight and strength and was almost in despair until I tried Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

Within a few minutes there was a stenographer on hands and a typewriter was clicking off letters to republicans in all parts of the state. The bell boys were jumping right and left, bringing Ice water, writing material and mailing letters. Congressman Watson, Col. Thayer and Mr. Thomas made a specialty of glad-handing every one who entered the door. Capt.

Who Most Need A Gentle Laxative Most everyone at some time of life needs a laxative, and then it is well to -emember to take Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, the great herb laxative compound, but those who especially seed chis remedy, and nead it perhaps oftener than others, are children, women and old folks.

WILL BUILD OWN STEEL CARS. Comparatively few steel passenger cars will be ordered by the railroads this fall, because the railroad officials and the steel car builders are no nearer an agreement on the price for this equipment than they were several months ago. Following the recent announcement that the Pennsylvania will operate steel passenger cars only on lines east of Pittsburg, it is stated that other lines, which had specifications prepared for steel passenger equipment, have decided to continue the use of wooden cars until the builders agree to provide steel coaches at what the railroads consider a fair price. In this connection it is reported that the executive board of the Pennsylvania railroad company is now considering plans for the enlargement of its shops to build its own steel passenger equipment. It Is said that officials of the Pennsylvania and representatives of other large railroads will hold a joint meeting with the steel car builders in the near future, when another effort will be made to reach an agreement on this point. It has been definitely decided,

however, by the Pennsylvania that no .

steel passenger cars will be used on the lines west of Pittsburg for a few years with the possible exception of those used for the fast through trains. "When the new steel cars are placed in service between Pittsburg and New York a number of wooden cars now in use will be transferred to the lines west.

Less eggs are required in the baking because we use eggs in the making of Egjr Baking Powder. That mavea money. The acid ingredient of "Egg" is Wheat Phosphates a food element that is vitally essential to the human body. On account of the extraordinary leavening power of Egg Baking Powder, less is required than of the ordinary kinds. That saven more money. When moisture is added, as in baking, little particlesof whiteof egg form countless cells that hold the gas bubbles in pastry, preventing a disastrous "fall." If necessary to leave the room for a moment, after food is prepared f or tha oven , you can do it safely. 77iaf saves worry. You can jar the oven as much as you please, without causing the cake, biscuit or pastry to fall.

Ordinary baking powders leave an irritating foreign substanco in the baking either Rochalle Salts or Glaubers Salts, depending on whether the baking powder contained cream of tartar or alum.
