March was the first month Of the
Roman year, and was named from
Mars, the god of war. Mars look
ed like twin brother to Richmond
Pearson HObson, and he was the
regular Roman delegate to the
Peace Conference at The Hague.
He was supposed to be the father
of ROmulus, the founder of Rome,
but he was not: he was only the
young mans godfather. In an
cient warfare it was customary to
place a good bronze bust of Mars
on the field and then fight for it.
The comedy of life will be about
what it has been-the men will la
Dor day and night, and the wives
of men will spin. They'll have a
club for every day, and never cease
to go; they'll learn to talk of many
themes their husbands do not
know; they'll hear a lecturer from
Greece, another on Japan, another
on the Renaissance. and several on
man; they'll hire a lot of long
haired freaks to make them cru
dite, they'll work on papers every
morn. and look up things at night ;
and their husbands will get supper
cold and suffer Tidicule-and the
children will grow uD like wolves,
while Mamma goes to school.
The money indiscreetly loaned,
| Will faithfully keep Lent,
And a lady teacher will sit on
| The pin when it is bent;
But when the principal responds
To screams heard through the house
She'll not tell him what happened, but
Will say she saw a mouse.

sign known as Pisces the Fish

Stuyvesant Fish, to take the Hi
