Good farming is not possible unless

dispose of the poorer work animals and
fill their places with better ones.

THE TALK ABOUT TINE MESSAGE.
The Presidents message isn't as we'll
guarded this year as it has sometimes
been, or perhaps it has been thought
wise to let its points" be known be-
torehand. And possibly those who are
telling what is in it are only guessing.
II what is published is correct it will
not scare anybody, not even a stock
market bull. The talk is that it's main
features will be currency reform and
foreign relations. The currency reform
part will be mild, The Hawaiian part
will be strong, and for annexation. The
Cuban part will call attention to the re-
cent trend Of affairs in Cuba, refer to
the autonomy scheme, and, after recit-
ing other developments, reach the virtu-
al conclusion that existing circum-
stances do not warrant interference on
the part of the United States
If all this is only a guess it is a very
plausible one. 1t is what most people
who have been studying the situation
expect.

WISE SONS.

Last winter we made a movement to-
ward the organization of a Society of
the Sons of Adam in this city, thinking
that the old man." the father of us all,
deserved some recognition as we'll as the
Pilgrim Fathers, the Fathers of the
Revolution and other more or less dis
tinguished Fathers But nobody seem
ed to want to be known as a Son of
Adam. and so we reluctantly let the
matter drop. We now see that it was
wise not to persist. 1t is always unsafe
to climb family tree very high, and
there are family trees that it will not
do to climb at ALL The indications now
are that Adam was not a person that
we should want in "our set" The very
latest from the scholars who are inves-
tigating the beginnings of the human
race is that Adam was a Chinaman and
not mandarin Chinaman, either. Sim
ply a coolie Chinaman, working in the
dirt. The claim is that the civilization
Of Egypt did not come primarily from
Assyria, but that China sent it there
taking Assyria as stopping place on
the way.
This is enough, and more than enough
The learned can trace our ancestry back
to a yellow, slantseyed Chinaman. They
have done worse. They have even trac-
ed it back to the ape Of the tropical for
est. But they can't make us proud Of
such ancestors, and they can't induce
us to call ourselves Sons Of such Faith
ers. We have been wise, and we will
stay so. We will go back just far
enough for our Fathers, and no farther.
Far enough Is the point where we can,
by persistent blufing, make it appear
that our Fathers were white men and
a little more distinguished for some
thing or other than most of the white
men of their time. Too far is where
they tell us that our Fathers were vel
low men or apes.

trembling pen can go no further. Be-
sides no creature on the face OF the
earth, even on the approach of Christ
mas, could, or would believe in such
villainous revelation if continued!
Still Litchfield, a wee bit suspicious
of a faint tradition that there may
have been in the olden time an occa-
sional zig tagging of deacons and bur
gesses on their belated way home from
the postoffice has taken a firm stand.
Litchfield has decided that to carry full
ly out the virtuous paternal policy OF
the administration, the postmaster
must be an undertaken and the post
office must be in his shop The first re-
ception of the idea Is rather OF the
nature of a shock and one must pause
for while. for REIMBURSEMENT Of equil-
ibrium; but as the mind embraces and
absorbs the idea in it's plenitude there
comes the certainty that once more is

How happy it would be to follow out

But, alas, mundane necessities come in

One word more. If Litchfield be sat

Of the gowns design, it should be com
mended for it's method of trimming,
which was one of the most tasteful
uses of velvet garniture that has yet
been found.
1t is also mistake to believe that
only big price and an imported design
can effect extreme daintiness in chemise
and night dresses. The very simplest
chemise to make is one modelled on an
imported design. 1t is without sleeves,
curves up little at the bust line and
dips in little curve under the arm.
Just where the curve begins, front and
back, is fastened a little band of lawn,
like little white necktie, and these
two ties are drawn up over the should
ers and there tied in bow knot. You
may use ribbon instead of the lawn
ties, but all white and all lawn is the
prettiest. The top of the chemise is
finished all along the edge with little
frill that helps the dress to round out
| under the arms as it should.
! A dainty night robe is cut low at the
neck front and back though the open
ing is narrow, and is outlined by inser-
ton of lace, Hamburg or ribbon. The
sleeves start from the shoulder pieces,
there being no armhole, the rest of
the gown hangs front and back, and
the blending Of the gown with the
sleeves is not apparent. Nothing could
be more becoming and 1t is lot easier
to make such a gown than one where
sleeve and arm hole are to be worried
over. FLORETTE.

THE rAnUE or CHICAGO POETRY.

THE VALUE OF CHlCAGO POEIRY.
There is Chicago poetry. Know this,
We who think Of Chicago only, or chiefly,
as the place where pork is packed and
where the romantic Texas steer be-
comes dressed beef. And Chicago
poetry is worth something, too. 1t is
not quoted in the reports from the
Board of Trade, and we do not know
that it is dealt In there. But the latest
dicker in it was at nineteen cents and
twenty-three hundredths Of a cent a
line. In a. Chicago court judgment for
s15.25 has been rendered against Cap
tain Peter Lawson and in favor of
Isaac A. Pool for two poems written by
the plaintiff on the defendants order to
increase the general gayety at the lat
the court that Poet Pool had not only
written ffty-two lines of poetry, but
also that somebody had caused two
hundred and fifty copies Of his lines to
be printed and distributed among the
wedding guests. The printers bill was
$5.25. The court allowed the poets
claim of $40 for the poetry itself.
With the quotations of Diamond
Match, Chicago "L." and other things
dealt in at Chicago advancing Chicago
poetry ought to share in the general
appreciation. 1t certainly looks cheap
at anything under twenty cents line.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
News comes from the North that the
queen village on her virgin hill is exer-
cised over the question of a new post
master. New Haven sympathizes deep
Iy with Lithofield in the matter; for
New Haven will soon be exposed to

need the advice, comfort, aid and SYM
pathy outsiders have to spare. New

lively interest for points on postoff1ces

vandalism at Danielson.

(Erom the Norwich Bulletin)
There is class Of criminal citizens at
Danielson who deserves to be severely
dealt with, and it is the duty of the
whole community to strive to have them
detected and punished. The license
voters triumphed at the last borough
election and it was expected that they
would celebrate the event as triumphant
parties are free to do in this country,
but in the flush of victory an evil dis
position was shown. A band of disso-
lutte fellows proceeded to the house of a
no-license clergyman, and in the street
in front of it held mock prayer meet
ing which was disgraceful and which
was an indication Of the feeling the
lowest element in the borough cherished
for it's most upright and leading citizens,
and it is not surprising that this ele-
ment has resorted to other odious and
offensive acts.
The Disagreement of public and pri-
vate property by the use of red paint is
crime and should be so regarded by
every decent citizen. These acts ought
to be sufficient to make respectable and
conservative men who supported the
license forces feel that they have put
glee and viciousness into class of dis
reputable citizens who would be better
in Jail than on top in matters of vital
interest to that community.

TROUBLE IN THESSALl1,

War is glorious for those who get
glory out of it, but it Is a terrible thing
for those who have to suffer from it. A
representative of the London Greek
Refugees society has forwarded a re-
port giving the results of personal
inspection, made under military escort,
of q number of Thessalian villages.
where he found thousands of the mis-
cradle peasantry huddled together in
practically destitute condition. He re-
ports that at least 10000 sufferers,
mostly women and children, were in a
pitiable plight, having nothing but the
clothes they wore and the few house
hold requisites which in the hurried
flight from their homes during the war
they were able to bring away. About
Is. 900 refugees were still in Euboea and
Boeotia, and Lady Egerton had done a
great deal to relieve the distress
among them; but the 5000 blankets
which had been issued were wholly in
sufficient, and 10000 more blankets, at
least, were needed. The Greek govern
ment issues flour to the destitute, but
this supply must be supplemented by
meat during the cold and wet weather.
