now. Caroline Norton would have hardly seemed
n sufficiently important subject for n volume
Of this size. The dark lOveliness of this grand
daughter of Richard Sheridan and Eliza Finley
was dazzling to see and delightful to remem-
her-but there have been other beautiful women
in English society. She was the author of
much fiction and much verse. now forgotten
and with little right to survival She wrote
quantities of sentimental songs to which she
could herself give charming expression. They
were heartily admired in the old days of banded
hair and prunella gaiters-and perhaps even
now the youthful female heart may palpitate
to mellow tenor voice singing in the moonlight

To Promote Wei
fare of Vets.

The National Indian War Vet
Grams, an organization formed in
Denver, Colorado, has for it's oh,
ject, to obtain pensions for all
those who, while serving the
Government, contributed their
share to open for peaceful settle
ment this great Western country.
The men as rule are old and
feeble, by reason of endured hard
ships and privations, unable to
perform manual labor and on &C
count of age barred from obtain
ing suitable employment.
A Government which through
ITS liberality to its veterans of
other wars, to its educational in
stitutions and it's farmers, ranks
as the very first in the civilized
world, should surely not hesitate
to give to this limited number of
surviving Indian War Veterans
enough to allow them at least
living for their few remaining
days.
These men spent some OF the
: best years of their lives in their
country's service, opening up this
great western empire, lighting
under such noted leaders AS Gus
ter, Merritt, Crook. Miles, For
syth. Mckenzie and others, and
should in their last days receive
government recognition.
We request all those eligible to
membership in this organization
to at once send in their applicat-
ion to the National Secretary

life sit around and complain; the

they're lost umbrellas whenever
there's rain and they haven't
their lanterns at night; men
tire r the failures who fill with

own neighborhoods; there's one
who is greeted with love-lighted
eves-he's The Man Who Delivers
the Goods. One fellow is lazy.
and watches the clock, and waits
for the whistle to blow; and one
has a hammer, with which he
will knock, and one tell a story
of woe; and one. if requested to
travel a mile, will measure the
perches and rods; but one does
his stunt with a whistle or smile
he's The Man Who Delivers the
Goods. One man is afraid he'll
labor too hard-the world ism t
yearning for such; and one is al
wavs alert, on his guard, lest he
