There seems to be quite a boom
growing for Gov. Johnson of Min
nesota for the Democratic nomina-
tion for president in consequence
of the article published in the
Commoner of May II, which states
that Gov. johnson can carry Min

national election. This would seem
to indicate that Mr.. Bryan has not

The Wrong Word Again.

There is an Evanston lady who fire.
quently attaches to words meanings
that are not warranted by the die
tiOnaries. Her husband, being a pur-
list, never fails when he hears her
using a Malapropism to call her atten-
ton to it, generally with an almost
fearful protest. A few evenings ago
they attended party at the country
club and with several other men and
women formed a group at one end of
the ballroom. Turning to one of her
companions, the lady of spurious def
nitions exclaimed:
''Oh, Mrs. Blankley, I saw your two
sons as they were on their way TO high
school this morning. What big, stall
right boys they are getting to be-"
Then, seeing a look of pain upon
her husbands face, she hurriedly add
ed:

wrong word again Williams says I'm

Athens, Greece.

Athens Greece.
Dear Cousin Charley:
We came from Naples to Corinth by
boat, and since landing have been pretty
much all over the Kingdom OF course
we like Athens the best, as there are so
many interesting things here to see. The
Greeks used to be the finest athletes in
the world-and have big open-air thea
tres built for their games, as they call
them We saw a whopping big place
called a stadium. which is a big field
with about half-mile race track around
it and seats all around that just like a
big circus, only there wasn't any tent
over it. The race track is only for foot
races, though sometimes bicycle races
are held. Athens is a city which keeps
up on its past 1t is full of old ruins of
temples that they built to their gods.
1 think they must have had a bunch of
gods, for there are certainly lots of old
ruins, and most of them are for different
ones. Diana seems to be the favorite.
for the big temples up on the AcropoIis
are to her.
The Acropolis is a big f1at-top hill
which has fort upon top of it 1t also
has many interesting ruins and some
and museum contain many of the fine
statues that were made hundreds of
years ago and papa says they can't
be beat by any of the sculptors of to-day
We haven't had anything much of ex-
citement to happen-nOthing funny, and
except for the interesting things we are
seeing. / would say it was slow. While
we were in Corinth we took a boat down
the bay to where men and women were
diving for sponges. Gee! 1 tell you they
are dandy swimmers The women as
good as the men. They dive off of small
boats and with a sharp knife cut the
sponges off the bottom of the ocean
where they grow on the rocks and
things When it's real deep they tie
big rock on a rope and hold ON to that;
that pulls them down And when they
get ready to come up they let go of the
rock and come up Hike a shot.
Well, so long-we go to Turkey next
week. so look out for trouble.
Your cousin and old pal,
HARRY.
