"DUM yIvIMUs. yIvAMUs.


Since immemorial time began
And it seems the phrase will never die
Man ever has been prone to cry,
MANS inhumanity to mani
But,
Comrades, why lament our fate?
Have we Just cause to cry, 81 ban
On mans inhumanity TO mani!
For what we did, ourselves, create?
Is not our very conscience loath
Such cowartlice to laud:
When we swear vengeance with an oath,
And curse both man and God?
Did we not, ourselves, prepare
Aud place within the dreaded cup
From which in future time to sup
The bitter dfegs we now must share?
Did we not heaven and hell defy,
When to this truth no heed we'd give:
'.'Tis not the whole Of life to live,
Nor all Of death to die?'
It's not the worst that we've betrayed
Our fellows love aud trust,
But that we've to ourselves been false,
Is the crime that's most unjust.

Then shall we make our sins more great;
Shall we to Satan further yield,
BY seeking With vengeance to we!d
The revengeful rod Of unjust hate?

For some allurIng, worthless prize,
Whereby we showed we were not wise?
Shall we prove towards, too, as we'll?

Since we did voluntarily fill
The cup from which we quaff,

Why not drink it with q laugh?
Aye, laugh, in anticipation
OF the knowledge we have gained,
And Of the glorious sensation
When the last drop shall be drained.
Then misery's cup we'll cast behind,
With the years we've lived in vain
Where Folly never mole shall fiEd

While the mother was working al
the plant of the Susquehanna Silk
Mills company where she is regularly

ant a rather unusual verdict Friday

plaintiff.
Shevalier bought a sewing machine
from the plaintiff agreeing to pay SIS.
An old machine was taken In part
payment and credit given for $50. OF
the remainder a small amount was

That there must be a limit to
the amount of stomach bitters sold
to n single person is the conclusion
which local druggists reached. An
street pharmacy this morning illus
trates the difficulty from the stand
point of the druggist.
A weakly appearing individual APP

o'clock and asked for certain kind
of bitters and he was supplied. With
In an hour he appeared at the store

better" he said to the pharmacist
Il am going home and believe I
will take my wife a bottle home.
She has stomach trouble too"
The man was given the second bot
tie for which he paid and left the
store. Less than hour later he ap-
peared at the store beautifully lag
ged and badly intoxicated as though
he were in n wet town and was
fully at liberty to get supply of
booze.
Although the stomach bitters have
been placed on the accredited list
not possessing an over supply OF in
toxicants, II is supposed that the man
loaded up entirely too heavily, The
druggist states that there was also a
possibility that he gained liquor else
where but it is quite improbable that
he did so, being stranger I'm the

Room in Swell London Restaurant Set
Apart for Serving Vegetarians
Wines on Bill.

London.-The modest vegetarian, or
the modester still Unitarian. or any
body else who wants art as we'll as
food at dinner time, will rejoice to
know that at last a restaurant is to
be opened where every prospect
pleases, and only man is vile"
The name of the Criterion has hith-
erto been associated in the minds of
most people with choice grills. dainty
hors d'oeuvres. and tender joints. But
a sanctuary is being prepared in the
west room of the restaurant, and
there nothing so coarse as meat will
be allowed to penetrate. 1t is to be a
temple of fruit and vegetables.
The man who lives on nuts and cab
bage will be able to order lunch at
the Criterion in future without en-
countering the pitying smile Of a gen
tleman with a large steak in front of
him. There will be no juicy chops to
make the fruitarIan shudder. Instead
the visitor will revel in cucumbers
stuffed with mushrooms, hoptips
seethed in cream, artichokes powdered
with rich grated cheese and all the
other dalnties dear to the vegetarian
Lucullus.
There will be wines. 1t remains to
be seen whether anything so vulgar
as beer will be admitted into the tenn
Pile Of artistic dining.
But the idea is to be carried further
than this. Not only will every entree
be a poem. every savory symmetrical
wonder: every waitress will be a

Care of Bead FrinGes.

Gowns adorned with the new bead
fringes will need more than ordinary
care or the beauty of these garnitures
will soon be married by spaces occu-
pied only by fluttering threads. So
great is the propensity of these
fringes for catching on anything and
everything in their vicinity that in
the shops they are often kept sewed
In strips of cheesecloth. This is a
wise precaution to take unless the
gowns are kept entirely covered when
not in use. There is never greater
danger of disaster than when two
Or more fringed gowns are hung to-
gether without any protective cover
ings, for the neighboring fringes are
sure to try to prove the natural per
versity of inanimate objects by be
coming inextricably tangled up with
each other.
