UNoUEsTIoNABLY the coming transfer
of the Oregon and Iowa to Hawaii is
wise. They are not needed in the Allan
tic, while if there should be any trouble
in the Philippines they could quickly
get to those islands from our present
outpost in Hawaii. OF course, there is
not likely to be any trouble. We have
nothing to fear from Spain in that quar-
ter even if the war should be renewed.
The only possible chance of danger is in
the interference of some of the continent
al European powers, and this is decid-
eddy improbable. We will have to keep
a larger naval force in the Pacific here
after, however, than we have hitherto
maintained. Our new possessions in
that part of the globe create this need.
Admiral Dewey's present squadron, re-
enforced by the two big fighting ships,
the Oregon and Iowa, will form a good
nucleus for the enlarged fleet which will
have to be held permanently in the great
western ocean.-St. Louis Globe Demo

supervised by the Chicago Human-Nature
Club.
Ugh! the very name is enough TO make
Cupid fly away In rage and knock the
last bit of sentiment into soft-soap
Have you heard about these neat little
machines? How the Nomenclature club
WORKS from phrenology in the selection OF
husbands and wives, and how that other
satanic little Invention is controlled by
thought? The formula is thus:
Gentleman and lady with the electric
love machine" between them. From q
silken thread at the top is swung a tiny
instrument shaped like q Ratchet. The
young woman in this original valentine
thinks intently upon the young man; the
young man of the young woman ditto,
and each gazes at the machine with its
metal disc.
This is a trying monent--the old-fash-
Toned way on Bonded knee, with wit

waves around, was nothing to 1t.

Slowly she comes around-I mean the
needle-then a little faster, and then with
few last, frisl1y vibrations, turns to-
ward the one whose love Is strongest
After which, the poor things go home
and talk II all over-whtch they would
better have done at first.
That Is all-only why this hard-hearted
inventor-name OF 'Odiardi-could not
have used an arrow for his swinging

Surely this much would seem due TO
our faithful Cupid who has seen so many

we are yet doing business at the old
