Sweet Eskimo Girl.

"The fellows who write popular
songs have weird ideas about things"
said the man who had been in ALASKA.
Just a few months ago everybody
was humming or singing II soulful
ditty that had to do with the romantic
love affairs OF chimpanzee for an
other equally delectable siInian. Co
rillas and balloons also had their inn
ings. and nobody complained. Then
along came the song about Indian
brides and Congo ladies. They may be
all right in their way, but to sing
their praises-not for mlnel But the
limit. it seems to me. is song l had
the felicity to hear recently. 1t is all
about a sweet Eskimo girl. Now. any
one who knows anything about the
EslSimos knows that they are the limit
for lack Of cleanliness. and II anybody
can ind a sweet young girl in the
tribes of the frozen north he has my
blessing. Yet the praises of that sweet
wad,ller are sung at select musicales
and In the drawing rooms Of swell so

story Of the Sun office-the man who
made quality supersede bulk and
whose services to American journalism
can never be fully appreciated
A few survive in retirement Colonel
Mcclure, the friend and agent OF Lin
coin, who was the Philadelphia Times,
lives on in a green old age in a COM
Portable official berth. Horace White
still writes, but always impersOnally.
Field Marshal Murat Halstead writes
an occasional brilliant letter, but the
Cincinnati Gazette, which was his
work alone, is now hyphenated, and
editorially speaking anonymous.
But Watterson survives, and his per-
sonality Is the more distinctive be-
cause his wit is yet as keen, his invec-
tive as maddening. and his humor as
generous as of yore; because he stands
up above the dead-level of impersonal
journalism to-day like some lone noun
tain peak, casting its shadows upon
the plain. A remarkable personality,
an extraordinary human development,
surviving primus inter pares. No
American who can read but is familiar
with his brilliant, original, phrase
making style Of composition; no editor
but reads the Courier-Iournal daily
when Watterson is at the helm; no
other man whose daily editorial opln-
ion is sent out by the press associa-
tons. And this man, still well on the
sa 70 side of 70 has been for almost
fifty years a distinct force in Ameri-
can affairs; long before the Civil War
broke out he was considered coming
man. No State owns him; no pent-up
Blue Grass commonwealth contracts
his powers. He is an American whose
words are read as regularly in Cape
Nome as in Louisville; who has a
friend wherever floats the star-span

Music as a Profession.

Unless a man is rich he ought to be
regarded as a criminal II he permits
his sons or daughters to become must
clans. In the musical profession there
are a few prizes not of the largest,
but for the largest number of inter
pretative artists the life is one of
drudgery-the drudgery of learning,
the drudgery of pushing ones self into
