Some girls are devoid of tact;
That Carlton creature in the last

Just makes me mad and mad-she's

And nearly snaps your head off if you

Keep absolutely dumb; Of course. l

Oh, Girls, Jacks so devoted it's n

Well, anyway, I think it's mean to

The presidents office in the new

that this may cause an Overdraft?-1
Kansas City Times.
The morning journal-courier., 1908-04-28

horses will no longer be seen in the streets of citiee And from the view point of utility the horse Is also doom cd, "There is nothing that has been accomplished with the aid of the horse that the automobile cannot do more speedily and at lower cost, For pleas ure or for business, in commercial life, or in agricultural, the self-propelled vehicle Is supersedng the horse and will continue to grow in popularity and usefulness, Having outived It's useful- ness and disgusted us by it's filth, the doom of the horse Is hastened So say, in our time we shall look on the horse as curiosity an animal only found in geological gardens and here and there in private herds, like the buffalo herds now owned by a few in- dlviduals."
 Now watch the horse 30, but don't bet on him. It has been abundantly proved that betting on the going of the horse, that 1t will be either fast or slow, is unprofitable business

A REMINDER IN ILLINOIS.

The decision of the Supreme court of Illinois upholding the local option law of the State is interesting for several reasons, and especially interesting for It's treatment of the township. The court declares that a township Is su- preme over g municipality situated therein. Thus, if township votes dry" under the ocal option law, and a town or city in the township votes "wet," the decision of the township and not that of the town or city pre- yails as to that town or city. The court did not consider directly the question of the right of municipality to vote itself wet or dry; incident ally it held that there was nothing in the argument that voters in outside territory were dictating to municipali- ties at local option elections. the creat- ing of "dry" territory being held by the court as distinct from any local municipal question It added that there was no basis for the contention that To- cal self-government was impaired municipalities being merely creatures of the legislature and hence that their privileges could be altered. amended or taken away from them by that body, as the court held 1t had constitution ally done in the present local option law
 This decision made good many in Illinois who had been magnifying the importance of municipalities sit up and take much notice. It will, in the end, do such people good to realize what and where the source of power Is.

MADE IN GERMANY.

Even those who are competing with Germany can afford to admit that there are some good things made in Germany. Among them are the hu- mane and stringent tenement house laws. Around Berlin the best blocks of buildings are only two rooms in thickness, have abundant court space, supply inclosed playgrounds for the tenants children, give each family balcony for flowers and contain hall for social intercourse. The outer air can be passed freely through the apartments, the floors are made sound proof. while construction really fire proof robs the tenement of one of It's terrors. Many of these blocks arc owned by cooperative associations of workmen, mostly themselves occu- pants, to which the government loans money at low rate from the surplus of the state old age pension fund There are in Germany 715 Of these CO., operative societies, the largest of which owns 1,S00 tenement houses and has capitalization of s6,25O,- 900. This stock company form of house owning has the great advantage that a stockholder, while he practical ly owns his own apartment. Is able to transfer his shares when his work calls him elsewhere much more easily than he could sell a separate small house.
 Of course the people of the United States are not really behind the times, but they have been so busy that they have missed some things.
