SOME horrid man has said, "If women P'*; weald pay less attention to bread win- ;; uing and more attention to bread mak­ ing there'd be less dyspepsia and more weddings abroad in the land." The- re. •- mark contains lots of truth even if there j- are many people who do not believe it. £ THERE are men who love to dander kl?1 their neighbors and attempt to pull fA -down those who helped them most if (!T, their selfish interests seem to so demand.

He may seem for a while to y. ..-.v-r make headway, but the reaction is sure to come and invariably the foundation «pon which he has built slips from under him and leaves him much lower down than he was when first he aspired to gain the goal of his ambition by sinister and vpwortly ft**'t .* C.
