The Maid and the Mummy is in

not such in the strict sense of the

IF the foreigner pays the tariff,
why not make him pay, say, ten
or twelve billions more, the adj
ditional proceeds to be applied to
building "good roads" all over the
United States? According to our
Republican norators, we make him
pay the expenses of u govern
ment now, and I'm for squeezing
a little more out of him toward the
above desired end. By the way,
what a sheep-headed generation
they must be over in England that
they don't also have a Protective
Tariff System and thereby force
as to pay the expenses of theil
government! No wonder Great

this particular case it would not

The road leading to the Park

extensive in dimensions and
thoroughly modern in their ap-
pointments, with many broad acres
attached for the outside enjoyment
of their inmates. Looking upon
them one is impressed with the
thought that there is o brotherhood
of man, after all, and that we have
not Stunned the duty and burden
of making ourselves our brothers

great redeeming trait of a people
