And He Suffered.

Little Willie, suffering from ar at
tack of toothache, had paid his first
visit to the dentist, accompanied by
his mother. Father, on his return
from the office that evening, was nat
urally much interested.
Didn't it hurt?" asked father.
Sure, it hurt" replied Willie.
Weren't you scared when the dent
list put you in that big chair and
started all those zizz-zizz-zizz things?"
ooh, not so much"
"That was a brave boy. But, surely,
you suffered?"
"Of course l suffered, But l just
kept repeating over and owe the
golden text we had in Sunday school
last Sunday"
"The golden text? What was it?'
"Why, suffer little children to come
unto me-" replied Willie, glibly. 81

self, and the first thing l knew it didn't

Solving a DoubIe-stocklnsed Mystery

Hosiery covers a multitude of shins.
No institution that forms part Of our
daily lives comes closer to us. There
fore, 1t is only right that the one
thing we do not know about it should
cause us much mental distress. The
question is: Do stockings (and socks)
wear out from the inside or in from
the outside? We believe the matter
is worthy of the attention of a master
mind, so we have taken 1t up. We
see on the fashion page that women
are going to start wearing two pairs
Of stockings instead Of one, and both
at the same time. We are told the
effect will be lovely. For instance, q
pair Of bright green ones underneath,
with a pair Of gauzy black ones on
top, will give a beautiful shimmering
ensemble that is all the fireworks.
Other combinations may be added to
suit the taste. All we have to do Is
to notice which stocking gets the hole
first. If it is the inner one, we can
deduce that our stockings, and exc
u socks, wear out from the inside.
IL it is the outer one, it is Just as
easy to conclude that they wear In
from the outside.

NoxelIst,s Good ADVICE.

business, and never before It. When
a regiment is under march the rear u

the front does not move steadily and
without interruption. 1t Is the same
thing with business. II that which Is
first in hand is not instantly, steadily
and regularly dispatched. other things
accumulate behind till affairs begin
to press all at once, and no human
brain can stand the confusion. Pray.
mind this: This is the habit Of mind
which is very apt to beset men Of In
tellect and talent, especially when
their own arrangement. But it is like

West to Assume leadership.

The thing that stands out in bold
relief is that the great west has come
to a new state of consciousness on
the tariff controversy. The voice Of
that people in favor of a revision that
will more equitably balance the inter
ests Of producers and consumers has
found expression in the form of con
g%ressional leadership. Half a dozen
western senator's, to any one OF whom
the nation listens when he speaks,
and a score of representatives have
taken their stand against a tariff die
tated primarily by ultra protected in
terests. This nucleus Of leadership
has gone home to justify itself before
its constituencies. Unless recent in
dications of popular approval are
greatly overestimated, these congress
men will come back with a measure
of Endorsement that will make them
more valiant and less resistible than
ever in their onslaught upon local
s~tandpatism and all that 1t represents.

4 Great BLOW at States Riahts

The tariff bill, with its provision for
a corporation tax, has struck the
greatest blow at state rights that has
been inflicted since the adoption of
the constitution. 1t will be noticed
that the new law does not give the
federal government any control over
the creation Of corporations, which
now, as heretofore, are recognized as
solely the creations Of the state; but
for the first time it subjects them to
the scrutiny of the federal tax col

the box, it was found empty and the

leads off with the following about Pete:
Peter Sullivan, you are man after

Lawrence and the members of the Unity
Cycle club the best sample of fighting
that has been passed out to them in many

you are in such form that you will soon
