Mrs. KeIIy's Sermon.

Charles Battell LOomis, while in Ire
land last summer, one day found him,
| self in a section of wicklow where
there was not a hotel in five miles.
1 came to a little whitewashed cabin
he says, in front of which a handsome
old woman in mans cap was bend
! ing over some flowers.
Good morning Can you let me have
something to eat?"
Sure, it's little l have" said she
with a smile that took five years of
her age.
Some fresh eggs, perhaps, or some
milk"
AYE. 1 can give you those, but me
house is no place for the likes
'That'll be just what l want" said
1, and she went into the house and
babe me follow
Fresh eggs and unlimited milk are
not the same as brill and young lamb.

conversation, but when you are hungry
from outdoor exercise they are not so
bad.
And Mrs. Kelly, like every man. wo-

to the Estates of Indiana" Did l know

l told her that I had heard such
things; that had a grandmother who

Kelly, feelingly "Well, it's true. Be
kind and be good and be humble, and

All the afternoon l climbed the
beautiful heather-purpled hills in the
vicinity with her youngest son, a boy
of 10, eating wild froachans, a kind of
whortleberry, and had afternoon tea"
with her at 6, and then went to catch
my train.
The son was very intelligent boy,
and l was struck with his easy. and, in
the main, correct use of English. He
told me that it was easier to under
stand me than an Englishman, and /
took it for a compliment, for l certain

than is talked in the Dublin district
by rich and poor alike. London and
New York should come to Dublin to
learn the proper pronunciation of Eng
lish.

irish Affairs in Parliament.

London. Jan 19-Irish affairs are
sure to occupy much of the time OF
the third and probably the most crit
zeal session of the parliament con-
trolled by Sir Henry Campbell-Ban-
herman. The king will formally open
the session January %.
Besides the Irish Universities bill,
promised the Catholics, and bill to
deal with the grazing lands, over which
cattle driving originated, the opposition
has threatened to introduce an amend
ment to the reply to the speech which
will enable them to discuss n detail
the government Irish policy.
This will place Mr.. Birch, the sec
rotary for Ireland, on the defensive in
respect to what has been done or what
he has failed to do, as the Unionists
put ii, and it will enable him to make
a statement as to future policy.
1t will be the first big debate of the
session, and unless the younger Ma
tionalists are held in check it viii be
as lively a one as parliament has wit
messed in recent years.
After Ireland, in point of public in
terest, will cometa drastic licensing bin.
to fight which the brewers, distillers
and license holders throughout the
kingdom have already organized.
The measure will provide that at the
end of a specified period all licenses
shall cease and the granting of new
licenses shall be placed in the hands
of more or less popular authorities,
thus establishing to some extent local
option.
Should the brewers consider it pre-
judicial to their business. they can de-
pend upon the house of lords either
to reject it or to so amend it that it
would not be acceptable to the COM
mons, and thus add another to the
many Liberal grievances against the
upper chamber.
Old age pensions occupy a prominent
place in the government program. The
principle is supported by all parties.
but on details there is a hopeless diff
ference.

Employ the doctors skill,

BY column and by page
But there no solace lies,
There is no cure for age.
Hopeless it is, and still
How hard my lady cries
The little lines to fill
That Turk about her eyes!
Cosmetics still she buys
The war with time to wage,
But evermore she signs:
There is no cure for age"
We're sliding down the hill;
The fact we can't disguise,
We slip and slip, until
We fall, no more to rise.
Time still more swiftly flies,
However, we may rage.
He will not heed our cries.
There is no cure for age.

Revision.

It Is an old-time Republican cry that
"the tariff will be revised by its
friends" Representative Mccall OF
Massachusetts, Republican. hit the
nail on the head when in referring to
this cry he said If the tariff cannot
be revised when two-thirds of the
membership OF both houses is Repub-
lican, when is revision to conner"
Revision, through the Republican
party, is to come whenever the bene-
ficiaries of high protective tarin are
willing to surrender the enormous adj
vantages they possess: and this sur
render will be made whenever human
selflshness Is destroyed.

1t is bad enough that under the die
tation of the speaker and his Com
mittee on Rules, labor bills are strang.
led and not permitted to come to a
vote. But. worse than that, IL pos
sible, Is the fact that the Speaker
picks committees so that bills that he
does not like cannot even get hear
ing. but are strangled In committees
by direction Of the Speaker. The peo-
pie are up in arms all over the coun-
try, and ti-Cannonism Is growing in

REPuBLicANs AND MONEY.


Golfers Weekly has . significant
editorial in its issue OF August %.
entitled. ''The Republicans and
Money" 1t is given herewith:
"The election and subsequent death
Of Mr.. Taft would mean the occu-
pancy OF the White House by an ON
cial fat.fryer who has during sew
eral years past approached. with def
erential hat in hand. the president or
treasurer of most of the large cor
porstions In the country. 1t was in
the course of this Official function that
Sherman was profanely turned down
by Mr.. Hartman, with bitter denun-
citation of the Republican party and
reeking messages for the head of that
party, that the party and the head OF
1t had not been grateful for the $780,
which Mr. Hartman collected and
gave In 1904. Penrose, lis one of the
executive committee of nine which is
to do the actual work Of the Repub-
lican campaign, is in error of taste
and judgment but not great deal
worse. With T. Coleman Du Point of
Delaware, however, the case differs.
Among the combinations now being
prosecuted by the Federal Govern
ment is that aggregation of compan-
les known as the Powder Trust. &r
Du Point is president of the fifty mil
lion dollar Du Point Powder Company,
president OF the ten million dollar
International Powder Company, direc
tor OF the International Smokeless
Powder Company, and vice-president
of the holding company. the Della.
ware Securities Company. which owns
. majority of the stock OF the Latin
q Rand Powder Company. Suppose
that Mr. Taft, being successful, should
be approached, by Mr.. Du Pont thus.
I am one of the ten men, including
Chairman Hitchcock. who have put
