Washington. May 2J.-The state de
partment has learned that an intima-
ton has been conveyed to Snyder,
United States charge d'ai1airs at Bo-

would rather not receive Russell as

there is nothing personal TO Russell in
this attitude by the Colombians-f
any minister from the United States
would be Objectionable at this moment
but is simply an illustration of the
resentment felt by Colombia toward
the United States.
1t is said at the state department.
that Russell will avail of leave Of
absence already granted him to re-
turn to his home in Washington, and
at the expiration of the legal time, if
the Colombans are in the same state
of mind another and perhaps better
diplomatic post will be found for him.

Or hide your face from the light of day
With craven soul and fearful
Oh. trouble is a ton, or a trouble is ounce.
Or trouble is what you make it.

But only-how did you take it?

Come up with smiling face.
It's nothing against you to fall down fiat.
But to lie there-that's disgrace.
The harder you're thrown. why. the higher you
