AQAIM THB WOMAN
Comemntlng on the astounding fact
that theftB and defalcations caused a loss of forty mllllou dollars during the last year, WUliam D. Joyce, president of the National Sul^y Company says tbat extrvagant home Jife la respon* elble for many remarkable Instances of wrong doing. He tells of one cass where a wife stole |1,60G from her husband's cash drawer In a railroad office to spend in luxury. Tbe hus¬ band was suspected and threatened with imprisonment, but when the facts were learned the railroad ofBcials felt such sympathy for him that they re¬ fused to exact hie bond.or prosecute. The bonding company helped bim to get a legal separation from hia wife and the merchants of the community started him in businesB anew.
Former Judge Allen B. Endlcott, ad¬ dressing a graduating class of niu-Hes, said tbat this Is a decade of woman's folly. He told them that "while men are going up in the moral plane, as graft and the evils of ten years ago are rapidly disappearing, woman has not kept pace with man."
"Take this craze for dancing," bo continued. "Women are found in the arms of chaufTeurs, cabmen, hucksters and others who pose as 'instructors' of tho latest dances.
Tho Rev. S. Parkes Cadman ap¬ proaches the subject from another angle.
"Many men do not develop because
a of the poor cooking of their wives," ha
says. "Too many women are safs-
fled to stay In bed in the morning and
let their husbands get what breakfast
tbey are able to. It is wrong to blame
the man in such cases if be becomes
dissatisfied with home life. He Ib
more to be pitied than blamed.
These are tbree rather hard slaps at the women. Tbe unfortunate thing about it is that they are true, but thank high heaven true only in a small majority of cases.
It It should happen that a woman who Is gaited to extravagance, frivoli¬ ty or laziness should read this we hope it will make her wake up.
If Roosevelt must hava a school flght there's no better time for it than now. The school vacation is almost due. and while the teachers and pupils are enjoying themselves the board may have as warm a time of it as they want But seriously, why flght?
We patriotically dip the colors to the veterans of Mott Post, Orand Ar¬ my of the Republic. A salute to Cap¬ tain Taft, the veteran of the veterans and another to Mayland, the drummer boy. May each man of them enjoy peace and plenty as he moves toward the en ternal rifle pits.
THK BULLDOO OLUB DANOB As an interesting and unusual diver¬ sion from the twelfth annual show of the Ladies' Kennel Association which opened with a chorus of barks at tho Mineola Fair Oroundr this morning, the French Bulldog Club will tonight have an informal dinner and dance at tbe Albemarle-Hoffman in New York. Dog shows may not be considered social functions except possibly for the doga which are naturally well bred, albeit many persons in the fash¬ ionable world are exhibitors. Still there is no good reason why the so- called kenel set should not leave their priM peta at the end of the first day's benching and hie itself to New York and dine and dance under Wxaach BulldoC Club auspices, return-

It is a fact that some of the fiercest wars planned against thc mosquito are halted by armistices Just at the time when the conflict gives promise to the assaulting forces.
Any effort looking to the extermin¬ ation of mosquitoes in the very nature of things is bound to be, futile unless It Is made with concerted action all along the line.
Kvery citizen—every man, woman, boy and girl should enlist for the mos¬ quito campaign.
FOB THB HORSE
There has come to hand through thee curtesy of tho Society of Preven¬ tion of Cruelty to Animals, "Leaflet No. 14," on thu care of the horse in summer, which every owner and driv¬ er ought to read and accept as a wise guide.
The horse Is tho most patient and uncomplaining worker among living species. Anything we may do lo pry- vent conditions which may cause a horse suffering should be done willing¬ ly.
Why not cut this out, paste it face s'de against a piece of glass and have the glass fastened to your stable walls?
Don't overload the wagon.
Don't speed your horse.
Use well-fitting, lightweight har¬ ness, loose-fitting collars and open bridles.
On long hauls allow periods of rest In tho shade.
At the first sign of exhaustion stop and bathe tho animal's head and neck with cold water. In case of complete exhaustion or sunstroke, endeavor to get the animal in tho shade, remove all harness except bridle, and apply Ice packs to top of head and neck Packs can be made by wrapping cracked ice In a piece of old blanket, feed bag, or any material handy. If Ice cannot be obtained, pour cold wator slowly over head, neck, and shoulders from pail or hoso. Care should be taken not to get water in ears of animal. Endeavor to keep animal in prostrate position, head slightly elevated, with folded blanket or other soft material underneath to prevent injury by threshing around or struggling, and notify Society and vet- erln ary surgeon.
Allow a liberal quantity of clean wa ter to drink, provided the horse be worked or exercised immediately af ter drinking.
Carry a pall and sponge to frequent¬ ly wash or swab the animal's nose, mouth and face.
Give a warm bran mash on Wednes¬ day nights, in addition to the one given on Saturday nights.
Avoid up grades whenever possible.
Relieve harness pressure from sores; a pimple as large as a pin head will soon develop into a large area if not protected.
Collar and shoulder pads are advls able only when the collar is too large, or in case of a horse with a sore, when the pad is used to relieve pressure. Pads cause friction, create heat, and become moist from perspiration. Therefore, they should be removed from the harness every night, the pressure surface washed with warm water and soap, and hung out In the sun to dry before again being placed on the animal. Supply two sets of pads for use on alternate days. If this Is done, sore conditions will be entirely prevented.
Feed properly; do not overfeed or underfedd; study the individual horse and determine Just how much nourish¬ ment It requires to keep it in good serviceable condition and health.
The man who underfeeds his horse or saves on bedding, blankets, shoe¬ ing or employs Incompetent help in order to save money, practices a false economy which invariably results m weak lame, sore, and enfeebled ani¬ mals.
Plenty of light, fresh air, good food, pure water and proper bousing are as ^ necessary to the horse as they are to the human bslng.
¦\H A L E S, the Greek Bclentlst, Is one of the flrst Inven r» and discoverers of whom history makes mention. About six hundred years before Christ this Greek discovered that, by rubblnK rum amber with woollen cloth certain bodies would attracted to the amber. The Greek for amber Is "electron." and from this root our word electricity and Its many variants were derived.

Thalea was born about the year 640 B. C,' .and died In 646 B. C. Herodotus and sev-! leral other authorlUea claim that he was' Ht I'hoenlclaji extraction, but other author- JUes state that he waa a native Milesian' lof noble birth. He was regarded by his tontemporarlea as one of "the seven wise men of Greece." i

We know of no posititon of trust requiring greater fairness than that of judges at firemen's tournaments.
The I'ettit pulse is again almost nominal, temperature reassuring, tongue clearing, respiration natural. The Sheriff may be said to be con¬ valescing.

One of tlie four executive commit¬ teemen of the New York State Letter Carriers' Association was chosen from Long Island at the annual convention. A worthy body of men are the letter carriers.. If we had our way they would have shorter hours and longer pay.
Woolsey Trainer, fifteen years old. leaped overboard irom liis canoe in Huntington IJay on Sunday and saved the lives of a man and two little chil¬ dren when their skiff had been run down by a speeding motor boat. The chances are that tlie lad received no greater consideration tlian perfunc¬ tory thanks.

The ward of iiobtrt (1. Ingersoll, the Dollar Watchman, whoso home is over on the North .Shore, has become the wife of Liberty, the pilot and mechan¬ ician of the Ingersoll touring car. All efilorts to get thd young woman to change her mind naturally failed. Sh*- had refused offers of matriage from 1 at least four eligible young men, ac¬ cording to her family. Komance these days runs to high speed. We hear of chauffeurs winning the hearts of heir-- esst'S every little white. Generally speaking, a girl ouKlit not to marry the family chauffeur, but tliere is no reason why a chauffeur .should not make a good husband.
Anyone who has ever lived In a typical boarding house will enjoy these lines to the prune, which are said to havo been penned by a star boarder: Life is a jangle and love's out of tune; What is a banquet that's minus a

prize. Prune, your a tidbit that's fatal lo
