How 10 Win Her.

10 the Editor
In answer TO letter Of Connecticut Young Man,
published Monday evening
lila ndsome youth sixteen 1t seems
Asks The World to md the means
OF gaining introduction to
pretty girl he'd like to know,
who all his airy thoughts inspired
Though at u distance but admired
That's very simple were he
I'd hunt up Iurly humans three;
Whisper TO each my little plot,
And share an "X'' among the lot;
Then in a week or 30 I'd wait
Ncar my "inamorsta's" gate.
Whom darkness wraps the land about
soon little Jane comes tripping out
nut 10, she turns towards tho right
Three numbering forms appear In sight
And onc-the biggest Of the three
Saws Come my pet. clopr with me!
Another tries to steal kiss
From the now frightened little miss
while the third. with hendish chuckle,
Pulls ont a strap without buckle
And Misses: Bind her hands and feet.
And drag her on to our retreat!
Then dressed In style I would appear.
Hit one base caitin on the ear,
Catch the next villain in the eve.
And to the third one would draw nigh
And say Release her, heartcss wretch
Then while the three their legs would stretch,
To get themselves from way OF harm,
I'd take the frightened dear In arm
And say. most gently, Fear no more
I'll lead thee to thy cottage door!
And then. as near her house we came.
II she's a nice girl, she'll exclam:
How brave of you; must tell pa;
Please come inside" and
There you are.

The Single-Tax Remedy.

To the Editor:
In reply to Landlord would like to say that
single tax is not meant to tax any one out OF or
into the possession OF land. That the present
system is unjust is proven by his own letter. in
which he says he has paid more In taxes than
the land is worth. II our views prevailed when
he Inherited the land he would only have had to
pay at most q tax rental value mo
rental value no tax" This would have saved
him money as we'll as a great amount OF anxiety.
This is a feature that gives the single tax 30
firm a grip on the people when they fully under
stand it-namely. one will want work and not
be able to hnd an opportunity to work. thereby
removing the choief cause for anxiety and worry.
