have no information of specific quality or even traditional authenticity. Where there has been will there has always been, we think, way to firt--and, generally, it has not been way ex- ceedingly narrow or hard to find.
 And now--at this season of the year. Oh, misguided city council of Rollo, Mo. What hopeless undertaking you have embarked upon. In the spring young mans fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, and, incidentally and naturally, to seminary girls, and commencemsnts and things like that. No promulgation or proclamation, no matter how high sounding or in what rhetorical array bedecked, can give him pause, or estop his mental gyratiors in respect of that. You will put him in jail, forsooth? It is for him to laugh at locksmiths and prison walls. The only way ths council can keep the young men of Rollo from flirting with the unprotesting seminary girls thereof is to move the girls on to the next town and let the young men of that community firt with them; and that would be merely getting from the frying pan into the fire, swapping the devil for witch, or cutting of Rollo 8 nose to spite Rolio's face, as the con script fathers may choose to view the absurd situation.
 Rollo's town council might better employ itself in trying to discover the fourth dimension, square the circle or perfect perpetual motion. It would find any of these tasks just as entertain ing as the one it has sat for itself, and the answer just as easy.

in winter for him to have to supply a mental whereforeness for evidenced feminine physical why's that he sneak ingly thinks are not thare; but there should be enough of the tangible mani. fest in the good old summer time, we believe, to relieve that generally fa- tigued masculine imagination of all un- necessary strain.
 We trust we make ourselves clear. We realize that this is a matter to be approached reverently, automatically, and with deep and profounr respect for things as they are as well as for things as they ought to be. Hence, we have sought to be circumspect without being utterly obscure; intelligent without be- ing trite or impertinent. We merely venture to hope, as We say in the be- ginning, that We may be permitted to see return this sammer of those most delicious, captivating, and girlical curves of the yesteryear-or, at least, some of them.

AS TO A TARIFF BILL VETO
Further Reasons Why It Need Not Be
 Expected.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
 But why should the president be like ly to veto the Payne bill7 By vote of 166 to 106, the house has finally de- cided for free hides. It did not decide to adopt free lumber, but the present lumber duty of $2 a thousand does not average 10 per cent, and ths Payne rate of $1 a thorsand is a radical reduction. Besides, the contest has submitted most of the southern democrats to the prin- ciple of protection as it draws near homs." and that is substantial vic tory for the republican majority. The action of the house Tuesday indicates a fraternal union of New England and the south in an exchange of favors, a moderate lumber duty for the latter and free hides for the former, which Is DO litically attractive to republican party leader.
 Senator Aldrich openly proclaims that he expects an agreement between con feress of house and senate by May IA. The inference is that the Payne bill will be accepted, practically as it stands, by the senate, if, indeed, it has nat been constructed with the aid, ap- proval and advice of Aldrich' s commit tee on finance. MT. Taft has had ire quert conferences on the subject with the house and senate leaders. If he were 80 violently opposed to the bill that 8 veto is among the probabilities, outkard manifestation of his disapprov- al would have proceeded from the White House. For present purposes of nation al revenue and commercial Quietude veto would accomplish nothing, because the evident plan of both houses is to leave the probabilities of the Dinglcy period undisturbed, with the exception of the few examples of free raw mater ial.
 There Is some reason to believe that the hint of veto coming from the wester republicans and certain admin istraticn papers, has been inspired at the White House, and is to be weighed not as definite report of presidential purpose, but as an intimation that the extremists of the senate must keep their traiff wishes within bounds. On the whole, veto seems not imminent. The situation rather is that united repubh- can leadership will put the Payne bill, substantially as it now stands, on the statute books before the end of the next month.

WHEREIN WE EXPRESS A HOPE

WhEh6lN WIZ 6AThboo "A nSS 6 For our part, we hope we are nowa- days seeing the last of the excessively slim, willowy, and severely straight line girl. Perhaps, as winter proposition, she was not overwhelmingly lacking in attractiveness; and even as an early spring product she may have her good points. But with the stealthy approach of the June time we would that a change might come o'er the spirit of her dreams, and that she might get her own consent to array herself in her lawns, and organdtes, and-er, things of that sort, you know little more along her erstwhiio most attractive and bewitching lines.
 There is nothing in all this wide, wide world quite so satisfying to look upon as a sweet summer girl. She is thing of beauty, and, verify, . joy forever. She always has been little prettier each year; in charm and grace, and winscmeness she ahs never bean known to retrogade. Fathers, big brothers, and husbands, too, for that matter for we have seen summer girls with husbands; bless you, yes indeed--may storm and fret at tho price of this hat and that frock; but if it looks good to their eyes when it is finally fashioned and donned, they forget much ami for give more.
 A summer girl must be piump, and round, and dimpled! Yop cannot get away from that. Extreme styles are not meant for her. Peeks, and boos, and transparent sleeves, ,md all that. Must she sacrifice them to foolish de- cree that says she must seek to initiate nothing on this mundane sphere so much as broomstick when 1t comes to the matter of herself adorned for dress parade, or the quieter phases of her be- nign endeavor? She is resourceful- oh, well we know 1t! She can accomp- AlSu iLluSA tlict ihaA AAi cAA WY PNSA sartorial philosophy recks not of. But she cannot reconcile those aforesaid peeks and boos and all that with a figure sternly held to exact angles and costume constructed only on precise perpeIdiculars, horizontals, and SO forth! She cannot get by with that sort of thing. and hold her reputation as an ever more lovely creation as the years go by.
 What we want to suggest, and what we are striving to get at, as best we may, is a summer girl array for rose- time that will not put mere man on the exertion of figuring how about it, any way-and then getting an answer that probably is not correct. It is bad enough

THE SERVANT INrHEvHoUsE


 Three types of clergy-an true to life in England, at least for the purpose of parable--are shown in ''The Servant in the House."
 One is the working pastor, who faith fully performs the services of the church, sincere, devout, yet missing the vital hold on his flock. His services arc deserted, his congregation lifeless. He wants to do better and is vaguely dis satisfied with himself. One is the socialist, who thinks only of preferment and gain. To what the religion he professes really signifies he is blind; to its call he is deaf.
 The third is the servant of whom the gospels tell.
 These three types exhibit tendencies that are found not alone in the Church of England, but In humanity.
 Selfshness rules one and he incum- bers the church he pretends to direct. Duty without comprehension is the role of another. Sympathy, love for all Gods creatures, heart throbbing with brotherhood for all his fellows, is the quickening spirit of the third.
 Wherever in the world one finds 8 servant of the last type, whether wear ing the bishops robe, the priests cas- sock, the minister's frock coat or the plain garb of the father of a humble household, there the spirit of Jesus abides.
