PREMIER GEREMYK|N EXPLAINS
of the Government and the
Douma.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 5.-Pre-
mier Geremykin in a statement today
seeks to make palmer the relative po-
sitions Of the government and the
douma. He explains that the douma
is mistaken as to his position in voting
lack of confidence in the govern
ment" The douma is not entitled to
interfere in either the military or the
foreign policy of the nation. 1t is en-
titled to share legislative functions
within the limits of the fundamental
laws. The ministry did not resign
when the lack of confidence vote was
taken because it felt that other min
listers would meet the same fate The
ministry intends to draft it's own bills
for the peasants improvement and the
government maintains that compulsory
appropriation must not be the basis
of the plan of giving land to the peas
ants. A conference of the nobility has
been called for about the middle of
June.

simple, so generally neglected by the

Lincolns had been men of wealth and

future President was born. on Feb. IL,

Their home was a small log cabin OF
the rudest kind, and nothing seemed
more unlikely than that their child

surroundings, was destined to be the
greatest man of his time. True to his
race, he also was to be a pioneer--not
indeed, like his ancestors, a leader into
new woods and UNEMPLOYED fields, but a
pioneer of nobler and grander sort,

to the dining-room matched in that
way.
The dining-room decorations should
be in pink, and as far as possible,
heart shaped. Pink crepe paper can
be effectively used to give the shape

might be pink in color.
Pink hearts, with little love verses
attached, should be placed at the
