Her Post -Graduate Course Carbon Hiff was proud of Betty Lonsdale. Old-timers could remember when she was 8 freckle-faced, pigtailed tomboy, running about with the rest of the Lonsdale brood, but that was before Mrs. Carberry-Cranston took the child to the city and after many years returned her as a shining example of scientific ed cation. Along with the assimilation of scientific education Betty had bat her freckles and her pigtails. The former had been replaced by a peaches cream complexion; the latter by an elaborate coiffure that was the envy of the more simple women folk who had absorbed the simple rudiments in the district school and then had married and settled down to raise more scholars for the same schools.

Mrs. Carberry-Cranston was a fad. dist whose peculiar bent was the advocacy of the higher education for what she was pleased to term the "lower classes." It was her theory that as the Indian bureau educated a few bucks and squaws as examples to the rest of their tribe, so might the woman's rights millennium be brought about through the liberal education of young women from the smaller towns. Cyrus Lonsdale had been willing enough to lend one of his numerous progeny to the experiment in consideration of the payment of all her expenses, and so Betty had been taken away a hoyden and returned a fashtonable young person. Martin Staats scowled as he first caught sight of her.

In the olden days they had planned to be married when they should be grown up. Martin had plodded along in his quiet way, regarding himself as still engaged to the girl whom he fondly remembered. When he saw the change that the cities had wrought he groaned to himself in despair, and yet, with his inherent persistence, he broached the subject at the earliest opportunity. "I s'pose I'll have to be getting the ring now," he said. "I guess you remember that you was engaged to me before you went away to be polished off." "Have you not forgotten that boy and girl romance?" she asked with an elaborate assumption of superiority that, to the man at least, masked the yearning that lay beneath, for despite her education and her superficial polish, Betty was still a tomboy at heart and even now she longed for one of those long, delightful rambles through field and wood that she and Martin used to take together.

"I can't said Martin, simply. "I was hoping that you remembered, too." "I do remember," conceded Betty, "but I also remember my mission. You must realize that this education was given me that I might be of use in the community. It would be unfair to my benefactress to settle down to married life and sink my individuality beneath yours." the "What's the and use of knowing how far moon sun are from us and who lives in Africa, if you have to live an old maid?" scoffed Martin. "There's Ruth and Theresa and Minnie.

They all married, and married well, because they learned how to be good housekeepers. Your ma's a famous cook and she taught the other girls. It's better to know how to make good bread than to know the sort of stuff your head has been filled with." "That's where you mistake," cried Betty, quickly. "Even in the kitchen education makes me better fitted to meet the problems of life. I know, for instance, the chemistry of -breadmaking, the relative nutritive value of the various meats and vegetables.

The science housekeeping is one of the most interesting studies. Mrs. Carberry-Cranston has particularly 1m- pressed upon me the importance of communicating to others these important facts." What Martin said about Mrs. CarCranston and her ideas does not require repetition here. But if Betty found learning a satisfactory substitute for love she did not show it in her manner.

People. regarded her with the awe erudition deserved but she was conscious that beneath the awe was a good-natured contempt for some of her theories. Martin she saw not at all after that first meeting. Then came a summons to her moth er from one of the married daughters and Betty was left to keep house for a week. Her father was away on business trip and she was left alone In the big house.

Her science of housekeeping did not materially aid her in her cooking. There was small comfort of knowing the chemistry of breadmaking when the product was sodden and uneatable and her knowledge of food values did not aid her to transform the most nutritious food Into the most appetizing. Before the end of the week she was hungry, dyspeptic and utterly worn out. Martin found her weeping in the kitchen and took her in his great, strong arms to comfort her. "Mother thought perhaps you'd like to come over to supper for company's sake," he said when at last the tears had subsided.

"She didn't know it was as bad as this, though. I guess, dear, that perhaps your scientific cookery needs a little practical expertment. Are you ready to try it, dear, In a home of your own--of our own?" Betty smiled through her tears. "It you are willing to let me try," she said, meekly. "It seems to me that in spite of theories domestic science is not of much use without a post-graduate course in matrimony." 00 0 0 000 MORNING PRESS WANT ADS 0 WANTED.

DIRECTOR HAD NARROW ESCAPE Prof. Alex. Enna director of the Appollo musical club of Marinette and Menominee narrowly escaped serious injury and perhaps death Sunday morning in attempting to board a moving train which was bound north and which carried the members of the club who were coming to this city to aid in the presentation of the "Rose Maiden." According to one of the members of the club, Prof. Enna was in the station when the train started and rushed out to board it. He grasped one of the rails on one of the cars, but the train was making such headway that he was unable to pull himself aboard and consequently was dragged as far as the Marinette crossing where he fell.

The train was stopped and members of the company rushed back but were unable to locate the Professor. It was learned, however, that he escaped with but a slight shake up and had at once procured an auto to take him to Menominee where he boarded the train, a little dusty and ruffled but otherwise unhurt. Whooping cough is not dangerous when the cough is kept loose and expectoration easy by giving Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. It has been used in many epidemics of this desease with perfect success.
