A YELLOW PANsY.

To the wall Of the old green garden
A butterfly quiYering came;
His wings on the sOmber nchens
Played like a yellow fame.
He looked at the gray geraniums,
And the sleepy fOur-o' clocks,
He looked at low lanes bOrdered
With the glossy growing box
He longed for the peace and the sill
ence
And the shadows that heightened
there,
And his wild wee heart was weary
OF skimming the endless air.
And now in the old green garden
I know not how il came
A single pansy is blooming,
Bright as a yellow fame.
And whenever q gay gust passes,
1t quivers as II with pain,
For the butterfly soul within IL
Longs for the wings again.

The Hug in WALKING.

From Washington Post
Professor Meyer FOrst-whoever he
what he calls "the hug" in dancing.
He says it's ali wrong and insists that
young people can waltz quite as we'll
If not better, without putting arms
around each other or resting heads
on shoulders and so on. His PROPOSE
ton is that If il be right to hug
while the music IS on, il is equally
correct to hug while the hornblow7
ers are out in the lobby drinking beer.
With this trite and stupid little axiom,
which nobody has ever dreamed Of
doubling, Mr.. Dancing Master FOrst
is conducting a campaign against in
nOcent amusement. He says, our as
ISOLATION is bound to stamp out that
style Of waltzing,' and then adds, or is
so reported:
"Only the other evening IN my aca-
deny young lady was Waiting like
that her head almost on her partners
shoulder As soon as the music stop
ped I stepped UP and threw my arm
around her neck
"'Oh, Mr.. ForstS she exclaimed.
oh, Mr.. Forsti' I said mockingly.
after her. Why do you say that now?
Simply because the music has stop
ped2 What difference does that make ?
If ! am not to hug you when there IS
no music, I should not hug you when
there is music. That is not the way
to waltz"
We do not know exactly where Pro-
fessOr Meyer FOrst's academy is lOcat-
ed, but are ready to bet that in a gen
eral way we can tell where it isn't It
IS all very well for the professor TO ad-
YOcate any particular clutch that ap-
peals to his professional judgment
Moreover, he is well within his rights
in prohibiting such as he disapprOves,
so far as his own temple OF art is con-
cerned- But We can furnish a whole
list OF communities and neighborhOOds
in which he will not prosper at the
business Of huggfng girls who have
stopped dancing in order TO prove that
they shouldn't let their best fellows
hold them close when they are dane
ing. There are lots Of fathers, broth
ers and sWeethearts scattered about
in the regions We have in mind who
would put No. p on the professor
quicker than scat IL they heard OF him
Illustrating his peculiar philosophy by
means Of strange holds on their wom-
en- folks.
For all We know, that strenuous but
misguided artist may at this moment
be sleeping on some sunlit West Vir-
ginis hillside, where the wild flowers
riot and the tumble bugs push things
backward, and the playful chipmunks
wag their eager tails. II he isn't il is
because he gave that object lesson in
another and distant latitude

THE BIG SHOW.

International Live Stock Exposition
December I to 8, 1906.
Now that some Of our state fairs have
been held, a reasonable idea Of what
herds, fiocks and studs are contest
ne for the years hOnOrs can be
formed. although it is natural that
some Of the breeders are DESTROYS Of
making their first entrance into the
years show yards through their own
state fair. However, there are enough
outstanding animals at each of the
fairs to anticipate a grand exhibit at
the roundup show OF the year Of
horses, cattle, sheep and swine, and
the information as to the surprises IN
classes leads the management TO eX-
pect the banner show this year. The
rivalry amongst the breeders and
feeders Of the various states to carry
of the honOrs for their state in the
lROSenbaum state college specials,
portends some unusual displays. If
you are not posted on the move Of
events created by these specials write
to the show management for free
information. Director James ". VIII
son, Of the South Dakota Agricultural
college at BrOOkings, in speaking OF
the international. said:
The international exposition, held
annually in Chicago, is looked upon
by stOckmen throughout the west as
being the event Of the season We
nave our STATE LdlIS LlAdL are 6OO1
along their lines, and very instructive
These fairs usually have an exhibit OF
stock governed largely by the quality
Of stock in the state in which they are
held. While the international eXpOsi-
ton includes usually the prize win
ners at the different state fairs in all
sections Of the country. The educa-
tional value Of this big show cannot be
estimated in dollars and cents Being
in the center Of the great live stock
producing area and having better and
larger buildings than ever before, the
attendance at this show in December
1 to 8, this year, should be greater
than ever. It has a tendency to bring
together the cream Of the live stock
kingdom. and I am glad to say in
many respects it is a better show Of
stock than was put forth at the royal
shnur in E,neland this year.

What Is to Be Done?

The ears of the members of the sec
ond district republican committee must
be burning to a crisp nowadays. The
manner in which the newspapers are
criticising that body is caution. Here
is one from The Winnebago Press News
"The republican congressional com
mittee of the second congressional dis
trct are getting pretty badly scored for
taking sides in favor of acandidate be-
fore the nomination is made. The COM
mttee, in envelopes marked "Headquar-
tiers Republican Congressional Commit
tee, Mankato, Minnesota" have flooded
the district with printed circulars in
which Congressman McCleary is allowed
to abuse his opponent, Gilbert Gutter
sen. 1t is, to say nothing as between
the merits of respective candidates, a
rank violation of the ethics of politics.
There is only one thing for this COM
mittee to do under the circumstances,
and that is resign. The republican par
ty of this district is surely entitled to
a new committee, and it should be COM
posed of men honorable and broad mind
ed enough to treat every candidate, big
or little, seeking a nomination within
its ranks with that fairness to which
each and every one is entitled to and up
to this remarkable episode has always
received at the hands of the grand old
party in Minnesota"
What do those members of the COM
mittee who are not in sympathy with
Congressman McCleary's peculiar polit-
ical methods going to do about it? Have
they the backbone to call the represen-
tative to account or will they remain
silent in the fact of the charges that
have been made? Will they permit Mr..
McCleary to "lord" it over them as he
has over other people in this congress
sional district? Are they going to per-
nit the committee to be used to fur
Their his ends? Will the committeeman
answer?
