case.
There is current decision
abroad that Providence takes care
of drunkards, idiots and children.
1t is not always true of the idiot
or the child and 1t Is very seldom
true of the drunken man. If the
newspapers were to tell the
truth bluntly about all the accl'
dents they record 1t would soon
be apparent to the dullest reader
that the man who permits alcohol
to steal his brains is in constant
danger while many terrible acci'
dents are due to drink. Over In

night a man who had wife and
family got INTO quarrel with an
other over the possession of a
dissolute woman in the struggle
that ensued was precipltated into
a body of water and drowned.
He was very much under the in
huence ofliquor when theaccident
occurred. This is merely one IN
stance out of many happening
every month.--Altoona Tribune.

The Old.Subscriber And His Paper

The old subscriber was talking
About the paper he read
For years he had been reading,
And this is what he said
Its like friend that comes around
Day after day to tell
What's going on that | don't know,
And couldn't very we'll
Unless 1t did, and when by chance
miss it for a day,
For papers, like some other things,
Sometimes will go astray,
| feel as though I'd missed a meal,
Or didn't know just what
1t was that wasn't going right,
Or hadn't reached the spot.
But when | get It, down | Set
And go for all the news
OF markets, politics and crime
And matrimonial stews
And base ball and the other sports
And advertisements, too,
And churches and society
And when I've read them through,
by heck, now don't you laugh at me,
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1911-12-02

That like the kittle on the Stove
Ge,s warm before it sings.
Sometimes tney splutter up bit,
Sometimes ,hey amt SO bad,
Sometimes they don't have anything
| kinder wish they had;
Sometimes they hit the very spot,
sometimes they make me cry,
Sometimes they make .ne laugh out loud,
And sometimes on the sly.
But, good or bad, l read them all
And when they don't fit me,
have a feel that somewhere else
Somebody else can see
What amt quite plain to what l sense,
But anyhow it's Gear
The good Lord knowed His business when
He sent them poets here.
That's what | think and feel and say,
And you may laugh al me,
But mebbe you had better laugh
Somewhere where | can't see."

chinese constItutIon Framed

Los Angeles, Nov. 11.-Eighteef
Chinese scholars, who have been en-
gagged at the task for thirty years
have completed the magma charta OF
China. According to ETo Lee, presi
dent of the Young China Society
lodge here, it will be promulgated as
the constitution of the United Repub-
lie of China, just as soon rs the fall
OF Peldng is announced.
While republican in form, the gov
eminent prescribed by the savants
will be far in advance Of that in
vogue in the United States or else
where. Ho Lee declared today. Econ
omics and the welfare of the proleta-
riat were the chief concerns of the
makers. Trusts will be
by provisions limiting
firms or corporations to certain
shares of the business in their par
ticular lines.
Every company must pay scale
Of wages prescribed by the govern
ment. This, Ho Lee said, is a feat
ire particularly attractive TO the
,oolie classes, whose pay now holds |
hem down to the famine line.
