HEB NAME The POCKET.

I'D in Idaho an impressionable young
man found in the pocket Of the duck
pants he bought, the name Of the
girl who made the garments; and he
wrote her with a dreamy vision Of
working out a new romance, and find
ing a wife who would make life even in
Idaho worth while. And this is the
reply he received:
I am a working girl, it is true, but 1
make q good living and do not care to
support a husband. When / do marry
IT will be some felloW who can AFFORD
to wear something better than Accent
brooches.
Thus is another dream shattered.
Thus are another mans ideals turned
down.
And at that, the girl is not going to
get the best OF It. She will marry a
young fellow who knows by name and
sequence every roll of moving picture
film that has been thrown on canvas
in the past three years. She will marry
a fellow who bets on the ponies, ana
could tell White Hat McCarty himself
new things about Juarez and Tampa
She viii marry a man who is looking
for a snap in the way Of money, and
who will not easily be convinced that
his wife should quit a good Job just be-
cause she has changed her name.
And this idaho young fellow, shocked
into what he win regard as evidence
that women are all insincere, sharp
tongued and fmpertinent, viii work
along till he is forty-hve, and then set
mad at himself for living alone, and
marry a woman out Of a correspondence
matrimonial sch0ol-and she viii have
half his farm in alimony and the rest
I'm lawyers fees before he is fifty.
1t is unfortunate that the girl put her
name in the pocket OF the pants" Or,
having put it here, it is unfortunate
Tor both Of them that she didn't tell the
Idaho young man to meet her in Salt
Lake with the ring and the license.

10 A DANCER.

We find the following on the principal
editorial page of Golfers. and present
it as an interesting basis for a guessing
contest:
Adeline Genee is in the United States
again. Our world is better for it. When
she left England Mr.. A. B, Walkley
said:
mile. Genee is going to America.
London without Adeline
Genee will be q mere huddle of pc
destrians, a benighted place where
tiptoeing is known only by hearsay.
If and when Genee departs she will
have to leave London her white sat-
in shoes to be deposited in the Brit
ish Museum"
The time must needs come when the
wonderful Dane viii go back TO Europe,
and our best sOlace then viii be 70 think
of her until she returns to US again.
Whatever may be meant by the edi-
torial, or by the English appreciation of
the dancer, are things we do not pre-
tend TO fathom.
But it is interesting to find that the
only person of whose activity Golfers
can say: "Our world is better for it,"
is a nimble-legged dancer from over
seas.

THEIR STRONG POSITION.

Members Of the house Of lords in Eng
land have a very strong case. They
have not refused TO approve the budget.
They have not attempted to dictate how
public money shah be raised, nor how
fl shall be expended. They have met
an innovation in the fiscal system Of
the empire. and they have simply said
they win refer The matter to the people.
They make not even the slightest pre-
tense Of a disposition TO rebel against
the popular verdict when this shall have
been registered at the polls.
If it We're the old proposition, seen
in the days Of Cromwell, when the lords
stood on their hereditary rights and de-
clined to concede any authority to the
commons, the matter would be differ

they probably could not get a handful
Of votes in the entire United Kingdom.
But they very distinctly do not chal-
Ienge the constitutional right of the
commons to raise revenue by new meth
DDS, nor the right to spend it as the
commons see fit. That matter was set
tied some hundreds Of years ago, and it
would be unsafe for any peer to demand
the reopening Of the subject.
It certainly is in accordance with the
British constitution to refer any dis

oYoU KNOW us BETTER Now.

When Washington people came to say
goodbye to Minister WI Ting Fang,
the retiring Chinese diplomat, they
made it an occasion Of expressing the
kindly sentiments they entertained
toward him, and listening TO the sage
words that fell from the trained lips Of
the Oriental. He told them the diff
Guilty underlying Americas hostility to
the Chinese was that Americans had
made their judgments. largely, from
the ignorant classes who had come to
this country and engaged In common
labor. you did not have a chance to
see our better educated people. They
believe it is best to stay at home" And
then Mr.. Wa said:
! believe in commerce, and there are
many things that you have and we
need. Many years ago we thought We
had everything we wanted in the vast
resources Of China, but through travel
we have learned we can use many of
your things. But two things are essen
tial-that we understand you and you
understand US. That can be done by
sending your agents to China to study
what we need that you can give US, and
by welcoming our travellers and stu
dents to your United States. You must
find out what China wants and encour-
age our merchants to come to America.
That sort Of thing will have more in
fiuence in insuring peace than can be
secured by the building of another bat
tleship.
China has five thousand young men
studying in different parts of the United
States. They are certain to plant and
develop a kindly sentiment for Ameri-
cans when they go home-and that is
where they are going when they grad
uate.
China is worth while, and the friend
ship Of that people is very important to
the United States.

to get along" And the very fact Of
the litigation, with the things they
have told the world Of each other. will
be remembered by them long after the
world has forgotten all about the case,
And every time they remember will be
a new reason for hate.
There can be no reconciliation be-
tween them. There are the wounds;
and even if they healed, there would
be the scars-that never would disap-
pear.
A careful reading of all the evidence
adduced leads to the conviction that
both are to blame, and that neither is
worth the time and the trouble they
are causing. People who can't get more
than one week Of happiness out of a
possible hundred and four are the most
utter failures in the world.

NOT A HAPPY MARRIAGE.

Wealth doesn't bring much when the
sum Of its benefits can be expressed
in the brief comment Of the man Bro
kaw, whose wife is asking the courts
for a divorce-with aEmony. He has
had one week Of happiness in two years
of married life. There is no good rea-
son TO believe that the woman has done
any better And one week Of happiness
is not an adequate compensation sor a
hundred and three weeks Of misery,
contention and grief.
They better live apart. They had a
better chance for happiness two years
ago than they will ever have again.
The older they grow, the less adjustable
VIII they become to each other. They
have certainly missed their best chance

though it has been announced that The

it is known that several leading Cali

in a study of the anti-race track gam
bling law recently passed in an en-

tinue to thrive.
Thomas H Williams, pres dent of
the club, has announced that the sea-
son at the Emeryvile track will end
April II. The new law becomes eff
fec i've in the state April 20. The early
closing of he track will cut off II
days of racing from the season origin
ally planned. Williams declared that
neither the track at Ingleside nor the
one at TanfOran would be opened and
thai the organization which controls
the tracks would endeavor to test the
law. The survival of the racing game
in this state, so far as the leading ra-
cling men are concerned, lies in Will
