The poet of the St. Louis Chroni-
Gle tunes his Tyre and bursts into song
as follows: When the women all wear
boomers and their skirts are laid
away: when their legs no more are
rumors, coyly hid from light of day;
when the petticoat's forgotten, with
its swishing, whisking swirls. and
there's less demand for cotton, I'll be
sorry for the girls. III be sorry for
the lasses who in school are at their
books-at the head and foot of classes,
I'll be sorry for their looks, for Their
mas will make their trousers, and
good heavens! don't we know, who
were boys, but are not now, sirs, that
they'll make holy show. 1t is bad
enough when Willie weareth pants his
mamma made, and it often knocks
you silly just TO see the youthful blade
wearing pants which no man knoweth
which is front or which is back-if he
cometh or he goeth there is quite an
equal slack" But your Susie. Oh,
It's CALLING; scalding tears will down
ward glance, when you hear the
urchin calling: Say where did you
get those pants?" You will see her
youthful, growing, but by no dead GER
tain rule, can you tell if she is going
or is coming home from school.
There'll be trouble. you'll allow, sirs,
there'll be anguish for your pas when
their daughters all wear trousers that
are revamped from ma ;. So I'm
weeping as I'm writing and my great
tears fall like pearls, since | know
what IN inditing, for I'm sorry for
the girls.

The Power of Words.

Words, for the most part, are mere
arbitrary com binationS of characters,
to represent some thing or abstract
idea, and yet there are those which
by association have a magic power.
Shakespeare speaks of words to con-
jure WITH" and in the dark ages the
astrologers and magicians had their
mystical words which were supposed
to have supernatural powers, even to
the raising of the dead. Nations
have had their peculiar war-crieS, as
the old English For England and St.
Georger': the Mahommedan "Allah
il Allahr'; and under the influence Of
these mere words men have gone
cheerfully to the certain chance of
death. Other words bring up crowds
of tender memories, ike "home" and
mother" A friend of ours who was
wounded at Chickamauga told us
that when he was in hospital, a
neighboring band one day played
CLONE, Sweet Home" and he drew a
blanket over his head and cried like a
child. That is the influence of words.
Names of places often bring up de-
lightful associations when we hear
them. The words Burlington
Route" recall to thousands of people
pleasant journeys, superb accommoda-
tions, quick time, and courteous
attention. When about to travel,
ask your ticket agent to send you to
your destination by the Burlington
Route. or write to w. j. G. Kenyon,

The Trimbelle correspondent a
couple of weeks ago intimated that
our structures on the diphtheria
epidemic in that town had been toe
harsh. The JOURNAL made its state
ments on the representations OF
citizens of the town. Diphtheria is
such dreaded disease that it would
seem that those in authority should
leave no stone unturned to eradicate
it wherever and whenever it may
appear. 1t is stated by residents OF
the town that there has scarcely been
time during the last ten years that
diphtheria has not had foothold in
some family or other and that from
fifty to sixty children have died from
it during those years. Under the
circumstances we believe our stric-
lures were none too severe.
