OBSERVATIONS

London society mas adopted new
umbrella. Wonder whose it was!
Some people become swelled up
with their own hot air.
Office-holders are great sticklers
for keeping appointments.
Seeds never grow quite SO good
anywhere else as they do in a cata-
log.
Another graft scandel in Chicago.
No need worry about the country
when things are so normal in the
Windy City.
The love germ has been discovered
in New York. If its been there all
the time its no wonder it has been
so long being discovered.
The man who thunders out his re-
fusal to do an act Of kindness will find
the milk of human kindness soured
in his breast.
Some one rises to remark that
poet laureate in America would be
next to impossible. That what most
of us think about the English one.
ing to try the experiment of sending
female inmates of an insane asylum
out shopping for a change. One
thing is certain, they will act natural
for the time.
A news paper suggests that Roose-
welt should do something to encour-
age the Texas man who has an even
four dozen children. In our opinion
he is doing fairly we'll without any
further encouragement.
An American was found dead in
Paris recently with his pockets full
of money. We presume bunch Of
Parlsians nearly died of remorse
when they saw what an opportunity
they had missed.
A New York heiress has declared
that she will net marry the Chinese
boy emperor. Some people have a
peculiar and graceful knack of avoid
ing troubles that We're never going
to happen.
An exchange announces that crops
will be record-breakers this year and
in the same issue says that Rookie
Teller is himself again. 1t seems that
there can be no joy without its at
tendant sorrow.
There are several days of the week
when a person should make a special
effort to be good. The ones we
would particularly mention are Sun
day, Friday, Monday, Saturday, We'd
nesday, Tuesday and Thursday. rr't
An aeroplanist who recently flew
over London said the fog was SO
thick he couldn't land. He ought to
have carried submarine for emer-
gencies of that kind.
A Missouri dealer says Uncle Sam
couldn't get enough mules to carry
on a war. That ought not to make
any difference. When Uncle Sam
goes to war he doesn't want fighters
that take to their heels.
An easterner, who claims to know
whereof he speaks, says slang will
never force it's way into polite so
ciety. Polite society will always re-
main the same insipid manner OF
amusement.
We are informed that the mailing
of the Congressional Record free OF
charge is in no way coincident with
the postal deficit. An extremely
polite and lady-like way of intimating
that the Record is rather light read
ing.
A prominent physician says we
should be careful about sticking to
our desks too closely,a ,as that is quite
likely to induce heart disease. That
may help to explain why we seldom
hear of sudden deaths among office
holders.
Several new congressman are re
ported to have caught cold sitting in
drafts on the floor of the house. Their
cold indifference to their campaign
promises and the hot air coming in
contact must have stirred up quite q
current.
One way to solve the servant prob
lem would be to invent a new name
for it with as much difference be
tween the new and old as there is
between "hostler" and "chaffeur.
Call 'em the French for domestic
scientists" or something equally as
high-sounding.
A news item says that q Los Am
geles woman who left home ten years
ago to buy new hat. has just re
turned. That must have made hel
hubby little peevish If she left him
home with the babies, but he must
have felt fully repaid when he
thought of only having to buy one
hat In ten years.
If there is no other compensation
