SERIOUS FRIVOLITY

n ROFESSOR Frederick Starr of the
University of Chicago, who eX
l. plored Africa and returned with
the news conditions there were not
much different from those of civiliza-
tion, now says America is becoming
worse than Africa in its too highly
civilized" view of the marriage rela-
tion. The married state today, he
AYERS, and we agree with him, is not al
ways regarded with the reverence
which it should inspire. Many of the
divorces which keep the courts busy
are founded on the condition expressed
In the old proverb, Marry in haste, re-
pent at leisure" But this being a swift
age, a lelsurely repentance is highly
repugnant to the mismated Benedict
and he does not hesitate TO invoke ju-
dical aid to put asunder that which,
according to old church phraseology,
God had Joined.
Professor Starr says there exists in
two apparently trivial expressions of
the day, one said and one sung, a serl-
Gus sign of the times.
He is aghast at the frivolous pop
ularity and the undoubted immortality
of the exclamation, II Love My Wife,
but, oh You Kid" He is shocked at
the evidence of marital disloyalty
contained in the popular carol, MY
Wife's Gone to the Country. Hooray!
Hooray!"
The professor thinks there would be
more hope for civilization if the senti
ment of the song were, My wife's
gone to the country Alas. Alas" He
sees rank and related improperly in
the "Hooray" of the husband in one
case, and his "Oh you kid" in the
other.
But the apparent frivolity is all super
fetal. This is really profoundly
serious nation. Let us not forget it
was in the United States the famous
lines were written Life is real, life
is earnest" and it was in the United
States the adjective strenuous" came
into general use.

GOOD TIMES

A n indication of the permanent re-
n turn of prosperity is given by the
"A estimate Of the total dividend and
interest payments in September, which
will amount to $SO,OOO,OOO There is a
considerable gain over last year, which
in turn showed a gain over 1907. Sep
tember dividends declared payable
amount to $40 500 600 as gainst $9S, $685.
600 in 1908 and $33,374OOO in 1907.
Interest due on bonds is $38, ,240 600,
compared with $32, ,O57 900 last year and
$32, ,220 900 for the same month of 1907,
The amount paid out during nine
months Of the present year, about ST.
O41, ,231 900, is $12O 100000 more than was
disbursed during a similar period last
year, and almost equals the total of
81 083 993, 900 for all 1907.
These vast sums of money represent
the ebb and flow Of national prosperity.
The tide has turned, and it is coming
in.
Now it is the duty of every GOOD
citizen of the Uniteod States to put as
much Golden Rule into his business
methods as he possibly can. Ideal ma
tional prosperity would be that which
would give everybody an opportunity
of sharing in the work of this big ma
tion and of sharing in the prosperity
10 which his work contributes.

STILL ON THE JOB

1.-THE Yarn l Heard Aldrich Tell
Twas down on the dented Rhode Island shore
When the tide through the narrows ran
That l found alone on homemade throne
naughty. elderly man.
His hair was thin he'd a double chin,
And grave judge was he,
And | heard him say In a boastful way,
As he solemnly looked at me:
"Oh, l am the boss of the upper house;
In fact, I'm the whole concern;
There are critics who may not like my way,
But don't care tinker's dern."
He shook his sides and he twirled his thumbs
And he laughed till his face got red;
I didn't know what had tickled him so,
Therefore l wondering said:
"Oh, elderly man, confess that you
Have succeeded in puzzling me,
And I'll heat my hand If l understand
How you can possibly be
AT once the boss of the upper house
And the whole concern likewise,
The cap and mate of the ship Of state
And the boy with the Argus eyes"
Then he Strengthened his vest and he thumped
his chest
And he gazed at far-oft sail.
And with never a smile looked at him while
He spun the following tale:
That they raised the revision cry;
The consuming crowd in a huff allowed
That the tariff was much too high.
''Well. they kept IT up and insisted that
1t was time we should have a change
I had oft before heard a similar roar,
And didn't consider 1t strange.
Taft took a hand, and he promised things
And the interests got afraid;
I happened, though, TO continue to know
Just how the game was played.
IT raised no yell and made no yawp,
But l snickered, as bosses will,
And I sat around with a look profound
TIL Payne handed up his bill.
"Tha word went out more than forty times
That at last they had got my goat,
But I always knew how to still squeeze
through
Whenever We took a vote.
you have heard that the bill is a compro-
mise,
That somebody forced my hand.
But my friends appear to be filed with cheer
And boss at the same old stand.a
YES, ate 'em up, and bagged the game:
I settled LaFollette's hash;
I did it all; but for me- by gol,
The countryd a gone to smash,
$50 excuse my laugh and excuse my smile,
I've a right to be feelin gay;
I'm a cheerful bloke and there is joke
have, which is to say!
'I'm as strong a boss as I ever was;
l run the entire show;
Not wheel can turn in the whole concern
TIN I tell EN- to let 'er go.'

PROSPERITY

nECORD breaking prosperity is
X, shown by Los Angeles bank clear
- ings for the first twenty three
days of August They amounted to
$44163, ,1O2.26. In 1908 for correspond
ing period the clearings were $29,S7O,-
1864, and in 1907 they were $34 ,090 =
66125. Many reasons may be given in
explanation of the great business ac-
tivity of Los Angeles, but the main
reason is the city is still growing faster
than any other city in the United
States and still offers both climate and
opportunity to all VINO make their home
here. Some other cities have climate.
Some other cities have opportunity.
But Los Angeles is the only city in
which every metropolitan advantage
may be enjoyed along with skies more
serene than those of Italy and balmy
sunshine which fills the body with
health and the soul with joy.
