when crlsmus Comes Along l

Oh. when the turkey crop rs on
And Christmas trees are ripe,
set out in the kitchen, here,
And smoke my fragrant pipe
And watch the wimmin fixin' things
To grace the Christmas feast,
And say: In doin' this for me.
Your doin' for the least"
And all the children swarmin' there,
And keepin' things a-stir,
And mother cOolin' doughnuts-
Why it's great to look at her.

And how he comes at night
A-scroogin' down the chimbley when
The folks hain't got no light.
And mother she just whispers, John,
You know that isn't So"
! answers: "Tis at Crismus time"
And | am right. you know.
Folks needn't try to make me think
Such little tales are wrong;
They're just as true as Gospel, sir,
When Crismus comes along.
Why there are folks that don't believe
The tale of Captain Kidd
And never went out late at night
To find the gold he hid
They say they amt no Santa Claus.
But that amt true you know,
You'd just as well say Mother Goose
Is lies-which isn't SOL
They's lots Of things at Crismus time
We love to always hear,
That's true, December twenty-fifth-
That's only onct a yearl
And I'll stick to my little tales,
And make 'em good and strong;
For they are facts, I'll stake my
word
When Crismus comes along.

The new census of France shows
that the DEATH rate is far in excess
Of the birth rate. and the problem
which has long been confronting that
nation is brought TO public attention
with new force. The decrease is not
noticed in the rural districts, but in
the large cities, and especially in Paris,
it begins to look as though maternity
is coming to be regarded as an Incl
dent to be avoided II Is said that
Napoleon once remarked that what
France needed was some mothers, and
perhaps the sentiment may be applied
in a way slightly different from what
he intended.

CAUGHT AT RANDOM

The total catch OF whales this year
is stated to be only twenty-eight, and
the industry seems to have almost
reached the limit OF nothingness. Half
a century ago the American whaling
feet consisted Of over 200 vessels.
The catch of 1886 was valued at s21,-
100000.
There are some 100000 PrOtestants
In Russia who enjoy religious liberty
with the stipulation that they must be
born OF Protestant parents and must
not proselyte. Preaching in nine Ian
guages is heard every Sunday in st.
Petersburg in the Protestant churches.
These figures have been gathered to
show the expense of some large fun

MWconi is accused of posing; of
seeking to exploit himself by sensa-
tional means. But If he has succeed
ed in sending messages across the At
lante ocean without other medium
than nature has supplied, his adver-
tising can be nothing less than sensa-
tional. We must not forget that when
Gallileo presented his theories of stel-
lar movements he was rewarded by be-
ing chained In a prison cell Colum-
bus had to overcome universal preju-
dice by exciting the imagination of a
woman; when Morse was endeavoring
to get Congress to appropriate a meagre
sum to establish a telegraph line be-
tween Baltimore and Washington, he
was regarded as a persistent crank.

in 1876, was experimenting with the

WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
Was a Faithful Horse

Thomas n. Glenn, a farmer living near
Cossart, up the W. and y. railroad, was
until recently the owner of "A horse of
considerable renown. The animal came
iIfto his possession when young man,
and was, in fact. the first horse he ever
owned. The horse possessed many good
traits. was OF "a gentle disposition, and
could perform feats of a remarkable ma
ture At Mr.. Glenn's former home the
water was supplied TO the stock from a
well near the house. An old pump was
utilized to raise the water from the well,
which ran through pipes to the baruyard
by gravity. The horse, on one occasion,
upon finding the trough dry. proceeded to
pump the water by catching the pump
handle between its teeteh, and when il
had pumped a sufficient quantity. it re-
turned 10 the barnyard and quenched its
thirst from the trough. 1t subsequently
performed this act for itself and the rest
of the stock on several occasions. Then
again, "Old Tom" has given the children
many a ride on its back, and i'm every
ease il was most soicitOus of their wei
fare II would eat candy with relish
and many time licked the swcctmeats
from She children's hands When Mrs
Glenn's father died he left a legacy of
5000 To provide for Tom when he became
mcapacitated. which was several years
ago. Tom died the other day in his thir-
ticth year. He was buried with due
ceremony.

According TO a news report, the Chi
oago anarchists are preaching their
doctrines in the street cars Of that city.
The usual complaint of those who at
tempt to discourage the propagation
Of the gospel Of anarchy is that plots
are hatched in secrecy, but if public
oonveyances are to be used as lecture
halls, it would seem that the police
might round up a few characters who
would be better employed in breaking

How They "RuOber-necksd''

It's astonishing what fools we mortals
be, as Puck hath it. Now the boys about
town know this, and not nfrequently
they will stop. and pointing into the sky,
cause crowd of men and women go
rubbor-necking' at great rate. A day
or so ago two boys got a crowd in front
of a window by declaring there was a
live mouse there The boys left, but
every passerby had TO stop and look in, a
new crowd taking the place of an old one.
The illusion was kept up for half an
hour by fooled crowd.

On Monday the Evening Journal will
print an interesting and temperate ar
ticle by Norman e. John, in discussion
of our recent article on Christian Sci
ence. Mr.. John writes as an expert,
and his views will be interesting to
all. We believe it is possible to dis
cuss such subjects in public print, pro-
viding the articles are not rabid OF
prolix. and we shall welcome for a
time short temperate letters touching
the subject, reserving the right to re
iect manuscript or to terminate tn,
discussion at any time.

There are reports to the effect that
several Cabinet changes are likely to
occur in the near future. Rumor has

Perhaps Senator Penrose's bill to re-
vive the grade of vice-admiral of the
navy. and to allow the President to
appoint three officers to this rank
and the recommendation that Sdhley,
Sampson and Clark be appointed, is a
wise measure, In view Of the contro-
versy which must otherwise rage for
ever. Captain Clark deserves the
honor without question. as both Of the
other officers would have. had it not
been for the wrangle which we have
witnessed. AS it is, someone is seri-
ously at fault, but probably the pro
posed measure would set at rest the
chickering's which are so disgraceful.
