ANYTHING
 BUT THAT
By s. E. kiser.

Father" said the millionaire's love- ly daughter. T wish to speak with you about a very important matter, if your mind Is thoroughly composed. can wait if you are bothered by business affairs so that you cannot give me your entire attention. This Is some thing that want you to consider with n clear mind"
 Go ahead. Business ain't botherin' me any more just now that 1t Is ever likely to. Whats the matter?"
 T am loved"
 oh"
 And I love-"
 Well. if the fellow has never been caught In anything crooked and there's no insanity in his family, l guess I'll have to let you have him"
 But wait, father dear. You have not heard all. There is insanity in his family His grandfather was crazy. two of his uncles died in the mad house, and his only brother is hope less lunatic. Even he has been called eccentric"
 Merely that, and nothin' more?"
 Alas. there is more. He has a withered arm and a clubfoot, and his chin recedes in such way as to make bis upper teeth project somewhat like

SEE ONLY RED AND YELLOW.
Thece the Dream Coors, According
 to pr. Havelock Ellls.

Red and yellow are the dream col other hues come to the dreamer of dreams. Simroth has declared that red is the most primitive of colors. and long ago protoplasm from which human beings derived their origin on the new earth probably responded to or was affected by red color waves, ,nt
 In the depth of the sea the algae or sea weed are red. With the savage red Is the favorite color. and for a bright piece of red calico African say ages gladly would give valuable ele- plant tusks.
 Red strikes the note of intense emo tions. It Is the color of joy, exulta- ton, Jubilation. Savages paint them selves red. and rejoice at seeing each other in burning hues. German wom- en of the early ages daubed their bod ies with brilliant red and yellow. and considered themselves must beaute- ously adorned
 On sacred festivals In Rome and Greece Pliny records red was smeared over the statues of Jupiter, and was the color of religious rejoicing. The human eyes, 1t is said. can distinguish 100000 different hues or colors and can appreciate and differentiate 20 shades of each hue. In other words. the eye is capable of 2,000,000 color impressions.

those of squirrel I discovered al- most at the start that I did not love him for his looks"
 Huh. l guess you didn't have to be much of a discoverer either, did you?"
 Let us not be flippant, father. The matter Is too serious for that. I love Batczhenyonyi."
 "Bat-what?"
 "Batczhenyonyi"
 Are you talking about the fellow now or something to drink?"
 q am speaking of the count"
 "Oh, the count? l see. This Bat what-you-call-him's a count, Is he!"
 Yes. Count Batczhenyoni Przchz- stetics."
 Hold on, now, Lil-hold on right there. You know I've always tried to be kind father to you I've tried to do everything I could to make you happy. and I'm going to keep on in that line If you'll let me. If you want to marry a man that comes of crazy family and is half crazy himself, 1t aint for me to say no, because as the poet says it's a mighty little way from the temple of fame to the bughouSe, after all. or words to that effect aint goin' to run man down because he has a bum wing or a game foot, either, for such things are acts of Providence, and not for us to hold up against anybody As for his face, will say that one of the best men ever knew had to wear whiskers to keep people from findin' out that he hadn't any chin worth mentionin'. Some folks have an old-fas hioned idea that man cant amount to much if he ain't got chin that takes longer to pass given point than he does, but that's all fol-de-rol It ain't the chin that makes the man. It's the cheek. So. as I've said. l don't lay his personal appearance up against him. But you cant have him"
 "Father-don't say that. am sure that he loves me for myself alone"
 'Mebby he does; but I've thought about this matter a good deal, and long ago I made up my mind that if you was bound to marry a foreigner with a title I'd stand the fun the news papers would poke at us-I decided to stand it for your sake. Anything to make you happy. You can imagine what they'd say if you was to go and marry such a count as this one you speak of; but I'd stand all that If I knew l was maxim you happy"
 Why do you say, then, that I can't have him?"
 Because l want you to understand, Lil. that I'm too gol durned good an American to have a son-in-aw with a name that I couldn't no more pro- nounce than I could say the Declara- ton of Independence backward. That's where draw the ine!"-Chicago Rec ord-Herald.

RELIEF FOR THE UNFORTUNATE.
Where the United States Is Behind
 European Countries.

The plan for establishing a state Ia bor colony incidentally calls atten- ton to the backwardness of the new world in two important matters. the relief of honest men out of employ ment and the suppression of vagrants. Save for the work done chiefly by pri- vate organizations, in a few large cities, there would be absolutely noth- ing in the United States which Swiss, German or Dutch charity work CT might compare to the labor colonies of his native land. Even French men, whose country Is overrun by vagabonds, can point with pride to relief measures which have already done much to reduce the suffering due to the enforced continuous idle ness of from 6.5 per cent to seven per cent of all workingmen. The idea of allotting small gardens to men out of work was conceived and put into practice by Gen. van den Bosch in Holland as far back as 1918; to-day more than 3,000 poor families arc thus supported in the little kingdom. The environs of Paris are dotted with some 1000 plots assigned by the Workmen's Garden Society to the unemployed, either gratis or at nominal cost.

DR.. lyman Abbott on Taft.

Mr.. Taft has the judicial temper;
it is we'll known that his ambitions
have always centefed upon judicial
position, and that nothing but a
strong sense of public duty has kept
him off the Supreme Court bench.
Hehas had thorough legal training
a long experience in dealing with
legal affairs, and he has developed
the poise.and judicial quality which
are the best results of legal train
ing. His working power is re-
markable, but not more remarkable
than his genius for getting at the
heart of a situation by direct contact
with it. No American cabinet
minister has eyer taken such trouble
or undergone such labors to secure
first-hand knowledge of the things
and the places with which he has
had to deal. Three times he has

Minneapolis Journal: Anybody
who figures that John Lind is out of
politics in the sense that he no long
err knows how to get in, is fooled.
The former governor always keeps
his hand on the lever. He knows
what moves are being made. A
curiousl thing about Lind is that,
while he likes the excitement of a
campaign and the kicking, stewing
and "beefng" of the sidewalk poll
ticians, he dislikes office holding in
tensely. Nothing would so discour-
age him from running for governor
this year as to be certain that if he
ran he would be elected easily.

Sanborn, MINI,

The fight appears to be on against
county option as we'll as for it. The
Manufacturers and Dealers club of
St. Paul is burdening the mails with
circulars and typewriter letters
showing the unfairness of the pro-
posed law, and that 'The interests
thus threatened with destruction
represent large part of the COM
merce of the state, involving many
millions of investments and affecting
thousands of people who gain liv-
lihood by this, the third largest in
dustry in the country" This fervid
appeal should leave no doubt in the
minds of our readers as to the ques-
ton whether or not more intoxicants
would be sold under county option
than under the present system.

By q recent supreme court deci-
sion. that tribunal has decided that
no man is justified in punching an
other in the defense of the good
name and reputation of his horse.
One Baumgartner of Bird Island
was set upon by Fred. Hogdon of
that town on account of slurring re-
marks about his horse, Hogdon fly
ing into passion and belaboring
Baumgartner, inficting blow on
the side of the latter's head and rup-
turing his ear drum, for which in
iuries Baumgartner sued Hogdon,
the jury giving the plaintiff damages
to the amount of over thousand
dollars. Hogdon appealed on the
ground that the defendants lam
guage and conduct furnished justi-
fication for the assault. The court
turned down the application for re-
versal, and in the written opinion
has this to say about the alleged
SANDER of the horse: 1--WE have the
right to assume that the animal was
endowed with horse sense, and
that had the remark been overheard
by him he would have dismissed it
without reply as the opinion of one
not competent to speak on the sub
ject. Therefore as matter Of law,
the remark could furnish no pretext
whatever for the assault committed
by the defendant, and was not pro-
per subject for consideration in
mitigation of damages. The horse
laugh is on Hogdon.

Now that the two governing poll
tical parties of this great country
have made their nominations with
something like unanimity, it is assur-
ing to reflect that both candidates
command the respect of men of
both parties,,so far as their personal
ity is concerned. 1t will be poor
politics to seek to belittle men like
Taft or Bryan, and the campaign
should resolve itself into a study and
consideration of what these men
stand for and the elements that are
supporting them. In any event.
Uncle Sans head man will be a
heap big man.

Clubs at the biennial meeting held in

gone to the other end of the world
to study the situation in the Philip
pines at first hand. He has gone to
Cuba. Porto Rico, and to the 18th
mus for the same purpose, and, sit
ting at his desk in Washington, he
has been enabled to deal with the
most delicate and difficult problems
of American diplomacy with the in
formation and insight of an expert.
No man has a more kindly nature;
but it is mated with great resolute-
ness of purpose. His smile is the
expression of happy temperament;
behind it there are clear intel
ligence and a resolute will. In the
weller of silly talk about him in the
preliminary campaign no statement
has been more absurd than that he
is President Roosevelt's echo and
the administrator of his policies. No
man will control Mr.. Taft; his posi-
ton on the great issues before the
country were taken before Roose-
welt became President. Mr.. Taft's
irenic spirit makes him born dip
lomatist. while his frankness and
honesty of purpose inspire the con-
fdence on which alone successful
diplomacy rests. In any office to
which he may be called, he can and
will unwaveringly administer a
strong policy. but he will inspire
confidence even in those upon whom
his policies rest most heavily.
