"Oh, the Gaekwar of Baroda,
Shaded much like chocolate soda,
Now Is coming to our nation with his comic
opera name,
He has no dance innovation,
To surprise and shock the nation,
He's a parsonage OF station, but he gets
there just the same"
Don't ask me whose immortal lines they
are. because I'm SO bad at remembering
names I sometimes forget my own. But

standing in the wings waiting for the fea-
tured show girl with one line and an auto

Tells Friend Wife the Gaekwar Is
Waiting His Entrance Cue.

HE Will find the same populace which, at
the time of his last visit, was feverishly
trying to put some high financiers into jail
now just as frantically attempting to pry
Them out. He will witness the quaint spec
tacle of president, Handicapped by weight,
trying to look dignified as he lodges the
bricks hurled by those who wish him to
echo his predecessor, and likewise evade
the vegetables from those who think he
should use his own stuff
THE Gaekwar will get here in time to
see the two greatest fighters exhaust the
dictionary. In Pittsburg he will actually
find a number of politicians in Jail, while
elsewhere he may observe thousands of
them out; he'll find the Ballnger- PinchOt
controversy hearing although everyone else
has forgotten about 1t; he'll discover won-
ems foreheads and waists higher and Dutch
necks lower; that Governor Hughes is still
calling extra sessions; that HelnEe indlct-
ments are still being Quashed; that mems
hats and women's hatpins are worn longer
owing to the cost OF living; that the man
higher up has just gone upstairs again
that food and rents keep ascending, al
though aeroplanes don't; that 4. r. can
articulate and, il It was presidential
year, that Bryan would be still running
very still.

Flashes of Philosophy.

The masculine girl naturally looks
buoyant
Little opinions often cause the biggest
arguments.
Contentment may be better than riches,
but you can't buy a square meal with it.
Feminine beauty is the knack a girl
has OF knowing how to look pretty when
she isn't.
The man who agrees with everybody soon
gets the reputation of having good judg-
ment.
After man has been married for two
years and still allows his wife to buy his
neckties his love wiz be lasting.
Also. the lack OF beauty is only skin
deep.
It's a good plan not to trosble other
people with yours,
a young widow and her weeds are
about in the same class with fool and
his money.
We would never suspect how honest
some men are unless they kept constantly
reminding U.S.
Girls never could throw straight. so II
