The Crown Is ON.

On last Saturday King Ed. went
up to London and without false
move or a slip got under the Brit
ish crown just as the Archbishop
let go of the head piece. 1t look
ed for minute as though the pro-
ceedings would slip a cog again
and the ceremony would be off.
The King had recovered from
whatever was wrong with him suf-
fciently so that he walked up to
the spot without stagger. But
the old Archbishop was pretty wob-
bly, and nearly tainted as he came
up to the throne. He placed the
crown behind Eds left ear instead
of on the brow, and the monarch
was shifty and by neat jerk of
his head he brought it in proper
position. Then he lifted the old
gentleman to his feet and had him
carried to side room to revive
Logan, o, Democrat.

It is gradually dawning on the
public in general that some inter-
ests are too well protected at the
expense of others, and if the upward
trend in prices of the necessaries
of life continues it would not be at
all surprising to find a great many
voters who will have changed their
minds with reference to the tariff
BIZ the time the next election rolls
around. The Beef Trust, for in
stance, is an example of we'll pro-
tected concern. There is duty of
So rs head on cattle worth not
more than S14 a headS and 271 per
cent. on cattle valued at higher
price. The repeal of the duty
would bring in cheap Mexican cat
tie to restock the western ranges.
1t would let in Canadian cattle
ready for the butcher. If the high
price Of beef is not due to the
scarcity of cattle. but to the ma
chinations of the Beef Trust, then
tina repeal of the duty of two cents
a pound on dressed meat would
enable Canadian packers to relieve
the beef distress now keenly felt in
Eastern markets. Relief would be
afforded also by the removal of the
duties on all animal substitutes for

OscnIation is Detined.

Kissing is a noun; it's name
Proper noun because it's the prop
er thing to do when they are ready
and the heart is willing. Plural,
because it takes two to perform
same, one of each sex Posssssive
case, because it possesses a delirious
infatuation for the human race and
agrees with parties performing the
act. Kissing is closely connected
with "buss." which is the good old
back-woods expression meaning q
kiss that is highly enjoyed by two
green-horns who have powerful
lungs and wonderful suction with
which to perform the act. In this
sense buss means one kiss, rebus
means kiss again, pluribus means
a number of kisses, horribus means
to be caught kissing by the old
folks, merribus means to steal q
kiss, syllabus means to kiss the
hands instead of the lips, blunder.
bus means to kiss the old maid by
mistake, and omnibus means to kiss

Cremation is one of the oldest
forms of the disposal of the dead,
yet it is form that lapsed from
use for centuries Its revival in
the United States was largely due
to the force and ability it was adj
vocated by the late DIR. Ls Moyne,
of Washington, Pa, and the prac-
teal illustration of it's advantages
offered by the crematory he caused
to be erected near the town of
Washington, which was the first
one in the United States This
has been followed by an increase
in this method of disposing of the
dead every year, and it's wider
adoption is looked for in the near
future. There are now within this
country but 26 crematories, yet this
is against but two Is years ago, and
the number of cremations is $500
or more year. When statistics
were first collected on the subject,
Is years ago, the annual cremations
numbered 16. 1t is because they
are common and have so ceased to
to be an occasion of comment that
an impression may have been Gre
ated which is contrary to this fact
of growth, but the truth is that
about Ia, 900 incinerations have oc.
CURED in the United States, which,
added to the large number in
