"Think, my hearers," said he, "of a poor, neglected wife, all alone in the great, dreary house, rocking the cra dle of her sleeping baby with one foot and wiping away the teurß with the other!"

THE GENEBIB OF THE HOBBLE Captain MacManus, master alriga tor, leaned Idly pn the pneumatic star board rail of the great New York re ceiving float of the Flvo Continents & Australia Aerial line and gazed down at Manhattan Island, 5,000 feet below, as It was in the year 1962. Down on the caissons of the F. C. & A. ground terminal a tiny electrical depot-tender, all glass and wire, was taking aboard her quota of passen gers, bound for tha float to catch the 10:11 Express for Paris. The Express, a monster 900-footer, that flashed her red hull across the Atlantic on .the 10,000-foot level at the rate of 150 miles an hour, lay in her clips on the float. Impatient to be released and tear hetself away from contact with thlrfgß near-mundane. Tiny 300-foot express packets from Washington, Chicago, Pittsburg and other near-by points were swarming to the float, discharging their passengers and mallß for the big Express, taking their release signals and scurrying back whence they came. It was a seen* that the captain had seen year after year, yet he never tired of witnessing the silent swift ness with which the thing was man aged. A tiny bell buzzed near him and No. 10 Starboard Clip swiftly opened its great steel arms and awaited the com ing of the boat that had signaled It. Down below the tender rose up from the terminal caissons, splraled upward In long curves, and one minute later No. 10 Clip received it in Its arms. Out of the tender came rushing four boys in the white and green uni forms of the apprentices of the line. "Kids bound for the training grounds in the Himalaya's," grunted Captain MacManus. The boys Instantly made a respect ful rush toward him. "What luck!" cried one. "We've got Just fifteen minutes to catch the •And yet," muted smilingly, "and yet, thoto old days wsro jjood days, *ft®r all." Paris Express, and we want to get the Great Mystery unraveled before We sail." "Yes, Captain MacManus," said an other. "Please, sir, tell us what this Is," and he thrust into the old man's hands one of those antiquated Card board affairs which, in the long past days of their usage, were designated as "cabinet photographs." "I found It in an old trunk I was going through," gasped the apprentice in awe. "1 was afraid to touch it at first 1 didn't know what It might be. Then I put on my germ proof and current proof gleve and picked it up. It didn't hurt me. So I brought it here. I-know you could tell us what It Is If anybody coold." .. . pld MaCManus* twirled his binocu lars. •• " .■ "Right you are, kids, in coming to me," said he. "If anybody can tell you anything ancient relics I'm the man. Why, I can remember back, to tho days when women couldn't vote." * . While the apprentices were recov ering from this awe-inspiring asser tion of antiquity, the captain was hold ing the object of the commotion off at arm'a length and studying it care fully. "My lads," said ha at last, "it's a Bhotograoh." THE ENTERPRISE, WILLIAMSTON, NORTH CAROLINA. "So wo guessed," said one of the boys. "We read about them in his tory books. Hut what is it of?" Tha captain studied longer. The figure on the photograph was different from anything ever seen or dreamed of in the year 1962. Appar ently it represented some creature bearing a faint resemblance to the women of the day. The physiognomy was dainty and appealing to the eye,, but it was almost surrounded by a great mass of material resembling haiTu To the waist the figure bore som»£ resemblance to the women of 19G2. Qut here the resemblance ceased. From the waist down the fig ure was shaped like an elongated V, with the small end at the bottom, where the feet should have been., It looked something like a woman who had -been caught and tied so she couldn't move. "That," said Captain MacManua, "is an old-time "photograph of a woman In a hobblo gown." "What! Ha, ha, ha! Good Joke, captain," laughed the apprentices. "Fancy—a jvoman! But tell ua what it really is, captain, please." "I have told you," said the captain. "It's a woman In a hobble skirt of the age of 1912 or thereabouts." t "A woman!" the boys drew forward and gazed at tho picture In amaze ment. "A woman —in a what did you say, captain?" * "A hobble skirt," Bald the old man. "You don't know what that is, do you, kids? Never heard of such a thing? Can't Imagine such a thing, eh? But that's what this relic of the past rep resents, and you can look In any an cient history and see that I'm right." "What do you think the woman had done, captain?" asked the apprentice. "What had she done?" "Yes. To make them bind her up In that fashion What was she be ing punished for," "Or maybe she was doing penajnee of some kind," suggested another. "My boys," stld Captain MacManus, "she was not doing penance, and she was not being punished." "You don't mean to say that she waß wearing that thing of her own free wilir\ - she was doing it because she had to; it was the style." "Go on, captain,", said the boys, "we like to hear about thfcse queer old-fashioned days." "Well, Style was the absolute Boss of all women ki those days, my lads. It was before they'd acquired the equal right with men to help worry about how the world should be run, and there they went along in the old, instinctive ways of their mothers — that have all been done away with now —and. ttatelr instincts Tuled tbem, and the Boss of the biggest Instinct of all was Style." "What was the biggest instinct?" asked the, group. "The desire to look pretty and make other women look plain." "And what was this Style thing thai yod* mention,' captain " "Style was a mysterious power thai changed every year or so, and whet It changed women had to change wltt It. One year Style would be for plumr women, and all the women would b* plump. Next year it would be foi thinness, and all the women would IM / thin. Sometimes it said: *No hlpw,' and the women promptly didn't have any hips; then it would say. 'Let there be hips,' and hips there were, lads, till you couldn't rest. Now, you young fellows, who live in thla age when women, having finally won their hard-fought battle to get a linger in the world's work, have got plenty of other thlnga to worry about besides looking pretty and therefore don't care so much for style, you fellows can tell just about wbsV women look like one year after another. It was different in the old days; you had to be ready for anything then. "I remember one sad, sad case that came about through this, and it hap pened in this same age, about 1912, that this ancient lady in a hobble skirt belonged to. There was a brave youhg explorer who'd gone down to take the temperature of the south po!e. He had a beautiful young wife j that he had to leave behind In a little | old-fashioned hotel named the Knlck- | erbocker tljjit used to stand at the cor- j ner of Forty-second and Broadway, j because this was before they had eleo- | trie heat and all modern lnconvenl- I enoes. Including Turkish baths, at tho ! pole." 'l'll be waiting for you,' says' she. 'Hurry back.' 'So long,' says he; and away he went and was gone for five long years. "You see, when he went away worn- J en were plump, and had hips and I shoulders, and wore long skirts, with room enough In them to walk. When he came back it was the year of these hobble skirts and the women were altogether different. The young ex plorer goes Into his apartments In | the little hotel and something that j looks like this picture leaped up to welcome him, and he stepß back and hollers; 'Gimme my gun. There's a j strange animal like a seal In the ' room.' And it was only his wife. The sad part of It was that he had to pay tho dressmaker next day." "But why did the women let Style boss them so?\asked an apprentice. "Would it purtah them if they wouldn't get thin or plump aa it or dered them?" "Would it! Indeed it would, my lad; It would let them aee other wom en who were In Btyle!" "But how did they ever happen tt> hit onto anything like thla hobble Bkirt, captain?" "Well, you see, 'twas In the days when the ladles wore fighting for equal rights w'th man. The men wouldn't let them wear the trousers as yet, so the dear women did the next best thing. They couldn't get the whole trousers, but they could get oile leg. They took and made it Into a skirt as you see in the plo ture." The young airmen gazed at the strange picture In amazement. "Why in the world did they think such things made them pretty, captain?" asked one. "Fancy one of our women today wearing anything that would interfere with their stride!" "The women of today ar.e free," said Captain MacManus. "They have thrown off the thrall of instinct. And yet," he mused Bmlllngly, "and yet, those old days were good days, after all. Douse my 5 signal raya! I don't know but what they were as good aa the present era, bo far as the women are concerned. Yes., lads, In those ,flays I was once tempted to enter that old-fashioned and discarded state of matrimony." "What was the matter, captain?" asked one ,of boys. "Wouldn't the girl have you?" "Run along," growled the old man. "Got aboard the Express. You're like all the boys nowadays; you're too keen on ancient history." (OopvrlKht. hy W. O, Chapman.) DENIES THEORY OF LOMBROSO Equally High Authority Aaaerta Thai There la No Distinct Type of Criminal. Dr. Charles Goring la • the latest criminologist to combat the theories of Lombroso and to assert that there Is no such thing as a criminal type. Dr. Goring admltß that there are Bome persons who are naturally criminals, but he denies that their criminality shows Itself by physical stigmata. Seeing that criminality is a purely ar tificial distinction, it 1b hard to under stand why nature should, aid in the classification. Our social system has Been fit to select a small number of the almoßt Innumerable ways of be ing wicked and to label them as crim inal. The other ways are not labeled as criminal, although they may actual ly involve a much greater moral tur pitude. It is not the function of so ciety to prevent people from being wicked, but only to prevent them from being wicked in such ways as are particularly perjudlclal to the reßt of the community. There waa a time when it was criminal to read the Bible. It is still criminal to do some thlnga of which the moral aense may approve. We can hardly expect na ture to give her sanction to our art! flcial distinctions. . t Robert Burns. Robert Burns belongs in the very , front rank of the world's great men. ; As a song writer he stands along with Qoethe, Heine and Beranger, and ' as a satlriat he ranks well up with Juvenal and Pascal. His "Coter's Sat- I urday Night," hii " Tam O* Shanter" and his "Holy Fair" are simply inlmi ; table, aa gfreat, in their line, aa the moat consummate masterpieces of the t world's greatest writers. Burns was i original In the best sense -of that l word, and his songs, satires, epistles > and many 'if his more serious produc ) tions stand forth unique, and fresh, r and powerful as the tints of Titian i or tho chiseling of Phidias. POULTRY PRACTICAL TALK ON POULTRY 0 ' Much Advice QJven by Theoretics* Writers Not Worthy, of Consid eration on Average Farm. The advice commonly given in poul try papers would require one to exer cise nearly as much pains in the cleaning of a chicken house as in the cleaning of a kitchen. Such advice may be suitable for the city poultry fanciers, but some of it is out of place when given to the farmer. Poultry raising, the same as any other farm work, must pay for the labor put into it, and this will not be the case if at tempt is made to follow all the sug gestions of the theoretical poultry raiser ' The ease with which the premises may be kept reasonably free from lit ter and filth is a largely a matter of convenient arrangement. The handi est plan from this viewpoint is the colony system. In this the houses are moved to new locations as the ground becomes soiled. If the chicken house is ar stationary structure, it should be built away from other buildings, scrap-piles, fence corners, etc., so that the ground can be fre quently freshened by plowing and sowing In oats, rye or rape. The ground should lie well sloped, so that the water draining from the surface may wash away much of the filth that on level ground would accumu late. Cleanliness Indoors can be simplified by proper arrangem«ft. First, the house must be dry. Poultry droppings, when dry, are not a source of danger if kept out of the feed. This may be accomplished by pro viding dropping boards under the roosts. The droppings In the poultry house should be removed often enough to prevent foul odors. It is best to clean It «very day. Dry earth, gath ered in t&e fall and stored In bins, is an excellent cleansing agent to use on the dropping board of the chicken house. Drinking vessels should be rinsed out when refilled and not al lowed to accumulate a coat of slime. Many poultry writers give innumer able diseases and lists of remedies concernjng which the average farm poultryman needs no knowledge whatever. There is very little defi nitely known on the subject of poul try diseases. Poultry ailments are assignable to one of the three follow ing causes, or a combination of these: First, hereditary or inborn weakness; second, unfavorable conditions of food, surroundings, etc.; , third, germs or animal parasites. A great many chlckenß die within the shell or during the growing pro cess, there being no assignable rea- I I A Prize Winner. son save that of inherited weakness. For this class of troubles the only remedy is to breed from the better stock. The prevention of the second class of ailments comes under the general head of "Feeding." A chicken, wheth er young or old, to thrive well, must have exercise, clean water, grit, a va riety of grain fodft, green or succu lent food, and casein or meat foods. The food requirements of a laying hen are very like those required by a growing chicken. Yarded or shut-in hens should be supplied with more lime than the food contains, however, to provide for the egg shell. Crushed oyster shell is much used for this purpose. * The third class of ailments belongs to the group of contagious diseases. These contagious diseases may be grouped into the general classes: First, those highly contagious; sec ond, those contracted by fowls that are in a weakened condition. Chicken cholera is representative of the first class. This is spread by droppings and dead birds, and through feed and waiter. To stamp out the disease, burn all cdck chickens, afid disinfect the premises frequently and thoroughly with a spray made of one !kalf gallon carbolic Bcid, one-half gal lon of phenol and 20 .gallons of water. Corrosive sublimate One part in 2,000 parts of water should be used in the drinking water. Where tha Money Is. , We may all of UB get the same price for eggs, but we don't all of us get the same price for the feed that goes to make the egga. And that's when the money la—or lan't. mnEirni LIVER; BOWELS No sick headache, biliousness! bad taste or constipation * by mornino. Get a 10-cent bos. Are you keeping your bowels, liver, end stomach clean, pure and fresh with Caa carets, or merely forcing a passageway every few days with Baits, Cathartic Pills, Castor OU or Purgative Waters? Stop having a bowel wash-day. Let Cascarets thoroughly cleanse and reg ulate the stomach, remove the sour and fermenting food and foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out of the system all the constipated waste matter and poisons In the bowels. A Cascaret to-night wilt make you feel great by morning. They work while you sleep—never gripe, aicken or cause any inconvenience, and cost only 10 cents a box from your store.

Summit, Va.—Mrs. Leonora Walker, of this place, has the following to say regarding her experience with Cardul, the woman's tonic: "Before I began to take Cardul, I suffered with woman ly troubles, and, 8180, with what I thought was stomach trouble. I was so weak, I had to give up all my housework; and could not do any of the cooking. I commenced taking Cardul. the woman's tonic, and after the third day I began to feel better. Have now used five bottles, and am well, and can do all of my housework and cook ing by myself. In fact, I feel like a new woman. I shall be only too glad to do any thing I can, to help praise the Cardul % Home Treatment, for it Is so good for suffering women. I shall never be without It." For over half a century* Cardul has been helping to build weak, nervous, tlred-out women, back to strength and health. It goes to the seat of the trou ble and builds up womanly strength where it is most needed. Cardul may be the very medicine your system has long been needing. Get a bottle from your druggist today. It cannot harm you, and should surely do for you what it has done for so many thousands of otherß. N. B.— Write to: Ladies' Advlaory Dept..Chatt»> nooga Medicine Co.. Chattanooga.
