But in the matter of Kansas news, it has no competitor, our large crops of special correspondents enabling us to cover the field thoroughly. Outside of your own home paper, you can get more local news from the Capital than from any other paper published. Editorially it labors unceasingly for the State's moral and material welfare.

Its salimt points are these: that a man should make the woman of his choice his chum, as well as his wife; that he should show her the highest consideration as well as love her; that he should remember that he owes his wife to her mother, and treat his mother-in-law with respect, at least; that ho should keep his wife informed as to his income; that he should give her a Tegular allowance and that he should have his life insured in her favor.

And above all, that when a young man marries he must remember that he leaves a world of self and enters into a world of -another and self. Six foot water color window shades with fringe, 25c. Racket Store. C. N.
