Children are increasingly fashionable
in literature. Boys and girls are ap-
pearing everywhere in fiction for the
mature in a pervasive and insistent
fashion. Jerome of Miss Wilkins new
Harper's Weekly serial is 12 years old
at his first appearance on the contem-
porary scene.
In law case at New York an attor-
ney asked a question of 63 words in
length. The witness was unable to fol-
low the intricacies Of the query and
asked that it be repeated. His request
was granted. whereupon the witness
answered: "I don't know"

the honors of United States senator con-
ferred upon him, not because he has
become distinguished by his abilities
and virtue" but because he planned and
successfully managed altogether the
most questionable and certainly the
most demoralizing political camptign
ever conducted in this country. He is
to be rewarded for raising a campaign
fund of $1,000, 900 to purchase the pres
idency for the agent of the trusts and
monopolies against what everybody
knows was the will and wish of the better
element Of society. That is to say, Mr..
Hanna Is to be rewarded with senator
ship for debauching American politics.
In view of these facts it is easy to ac-
count for the steadily growing belief
among the people that the method of
choosing senators should be changed
