GOOD ADVICE

4 BRILLIANT, wealthy American
"a woman is attempting TO capture
~ that attractive prize, the social
leadership of Europe. Mrs. Potter
Palmer has leased a great villa at
Biarritz, and is trying to induce King
Edward and his glittering retinue (ro-
mances say it is glittering) to accept
her hospitality Mrs. Potter Palmer
has been laying siege to King Edward
for several seasons, but the luck has
been against her. She has a naughty
foe, Mrs. George Keppel, an influential
member of the kings retinue. Mrs.
Keppers very name endears her to
Hoch die Kaiser Koenig Edward, whose
heart is on the continent, although
Fate and the contumdciousness of the
Stuarts made him king of the misty
island. Whenever Edward gets a
chance to run away from the puritani-
cal island he runs; and he loves to
seclude himself among congenial inti-
mates with whom he can converse In
his mother tongue, German, the domes-
tic language of the royal family of the
United Kingdom and the British en-
pire. We advise Mrs. Palmer to learn
the kings language and to drop him
letter in good German script, urging
him to share her humble frankfurters
and drink swei bier init her for alt lang
since. The good humored German
lairdie will promptly give her the social
pre-eminence she desires. Dear Mrs.
Palmer, this is not a josh. This is a
friendly, straight tip. Try him with
frankfurters.

To watch the nations. one og one,
Rise up and flourish and decay
To hold their green robes to the sun
For us in loving rest today
Here let us tarry till the close, -

TO study them and learn repose,
TO hear their sweetest notes of song.
Here there is home in shelters green'
Here music fills the soft south air.
Each moment does enrich the scene,
Each hour makes II still more fair.
These grand old monarchs of the WOOD,
These landmarks of crumbled pas,
Where counsels met and lovers wooeu,
Where then now they hold us fast'
Where fancy wings a circle wide
And fills enchantingly the grounds;
Who comes must love- who goes abide
The restful scene and whispering SOUNDS
We stay because our hearts would stay
We could not go without tear
We live and love, as lovers may
In forests green and sunshine clear.
The lingering day regrets to go.

The sun beyond the heights sinks slow
And leaves us with our oaks to drea4.

SAYS SOCIALISTS SHOULD
CONTINUE TO BE CONSISTENT

LOS ANGELES, March 24.-[Editor
Herald: Since the Socialists of this
city appear to have a grievance in
consequence of being debarred from
free use of the streets for public meet
ings without permit 1t may be profit
able to consider somewhat the grounds
for complaint from the viewpoint of
simon-pure Socialism. A Socialist, to
be consistent. must ever be a radical
advocate of the common interest of the
public well-being, safety and convent
ence In conformity with this attitude
he will not ask for the use of the
streets. not wishing to impede In any
way public travel or traffic. The fact
that such a privilege has been granted
to the advocates of religion, or to any
body else for that matter, would not
cause a consistent Socialist to deviate
from his consideration for the entire
community and their primary right to
the streets Indeed, to be candid, a
Socialist should be the last man to ask
for or expect favors or privileges. He
stands for the individual interests of
all the people, of the entire community
state or nation. That a place-an open
lot-might be provided for the use of
public meetings. to be held subject TO
law and order free of charge, by the
community. the same as Hyde Park in
London. is a consideration for all citi-
zens who believe in constitutional
rights. JOr1N ~ AnI'
