Socialist testimony.

Hon. Carl d. Thompson, a Socialist
member Of the Wisconsin legislature,
points as the foreword to his pamphlet
"The Constructive Programme Of So
clallsm" this quotation from Lieb-
knecht:
1--WE are not going to attain social
ism at one bound. The transition Is
going on all the time, and the impor-
tant thing for us in this explanation Is
not to paint a picture Of the future,
which I'm any case would be useless Ia
Dor but TO forecast a practical pro-
gramme for the immediate period, to
formulate and justify measures that
shall serve as aids to the new Socialist
birth"
Mr.. Thompson then proceeds to out
line the measures that shall serve as
aids to the new Socialist BIRTH" devot-
ing more than one-third Of his brochure
to municipal ownership. which he
frankly calls municipal socialism and
evidently regards as the most avail
able means for accustoming the public
to sociaIistic principles and methods.

Thompson for helping to make clear
the intimate connection between mu-
nicipal ownership ard socialism q,

What Travellers Leavs.

HOf the thousand and eight things
left at hotels from time to time" re-
marked the hotel clerk, razor strops
have the other commodities pushed
across the border In point OF numbers.
About 10 per cent Of the people who
have razor strops in their grips leave
them behind. Of course the reason Is
that the strop Is hanging up on a nail
out Of sight somewhere when the man
packs up, and he doesn't think about
IT. His comb and brush are right on
the dresser before him, and that's
easy.
"Next to razor strops, though not
hustling the strops for position, come
the nighties Of both genders. A good
many send back after them, but lot
more people who leave them behind
Just abandon them. After so long we
give them to charitable institutions.

Told II In Rhyme.

The late Rev. John SkiDnet author
Of annals Of Scottish Ep. copacy,'
was first appointed to a charge IN Mon
trose, whence he was removed TO
Banff. and ultimately to Forfar. Aft
err he had left Montrose it reached his
ears that an i'll natured in'Auation
was circulating there that he had been
induced to leave this town by the
temptation Of a better income and OF
fat pork, which, It would appear, was
plentiful in the locality Of his new IN
cumbency. Indignant at such an as
persion. he wrote a letter, directed to
his maligners, indicating himself
sharply from it, which he showed to
his grandfather, John Skinner OF
Langside, for his approval. The old
gentleman objected to 1t as too lengthy
and proposed the following pithy sub
stitute:
Had Skinner been of carnal mind,
As strangely ye suppose.
Or had he even been fond OF swine
He'd ne'er have left Montrose.

The perlwig, which played so impor

fashion during part Of the seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries, owed its orr

little boy Che succeeded to the throne
at five years of age he possessed c
profusion Of remarkably beautiful
waving hair which fell in clustering
curls over his shoulders. The courtieri
initiated the boy king by having head:
Of false hair to initiate his natural
locks, and when Louis grew up he
adopted the periwig himself.
During the reign Of William ant
Mary periwlgs were worn in exagger
ated dimensions, and the beaux used
to comb their wigs in public with spe
clal combs of ivory and tortoise shell
which became at last quite indispensa
