FIRST STEP DOWN IS FATAL
That Hotels and Newspapers Must
Remain Respectable.

Suppose you are an innkeeper, with
q fine, respectable establishment. To
stimulate profits you take down few
bars. begin to admit disreputable and
unpleasant people. Your hotel enjoys
great prosperity for two or three sea-
sons. then suddenly falls toward bank
ruptcy. The hotel bore q reputation
for respectability; the soiled charac-
tiers wanted to enter II in order to con-
ceal their real nature and intentions.
The newspaper bore reputation for
sincerity; prostitute causes wanted to
enter it in order to get by association
the color Of truth. As time passed,
more and more disreputable people
came to the hotel, SO that 1t lost utter
ly its old reputation. As time passed
the newspaper had to lie more and
more boldly, suppress more and more
brutally, and the public began to per
ceive. Finally, even the disreputable
abandoned the hotel because it no
longer covered their intentions. Final
ly, the corrupt powers which fed the
newspaper discovered that its word
carried no more force, that it was; I'M
able to further their causes, and they
abandoned it to failure.-Will Irwin.

IS EXTREME OF DEsoLATloN
Unfinished Card Game, With Paste
boards Lying Just Where tho
Players Left Thorn.

Asked what sight represented to his
mind the extreme OF desolation, the
renting agent said:
IAN unfinished card game, with the
cards lying just where the players left
them. This morning came across an
interrupted game Of hearts in fur
nished fiat that was vacated suddenly.
The tenants simply packed their
clothes and moved out without word
Of explanation to anybody, and as they
didn't owe me a cent it wasn't my
place to run them down.
"They had been playing on the din
ing room table, and the game was
about half finished. Four hands Of
cards thrown down when the game
was anybody's that knew how to turn
a trick worked on the imagination.
Why did they stop playing in such q
hurry? Why didn't they stay to fin
ish the game, or If they couldn't do
that, why didn't they scrape the cards
together and take them along? Inter-
esting questions, those, and I'd like to
have them answered"

A Poor Proposition.

Frank A. Munsey, the well-known
publisher, is noted among his friends
as a close reasoner.
A New York reporter submitted re-.
Gently to Mr.. Munsey d proposal for
n new magazine on novel lines. Mr..
Munsey proved in a closely-reasoned
argument that this magazine would
fail. Then, in conclusion. he said:
"Or, II the magazine did pay. 1t
would pay so little that its publishers
would be like an editor in the neigh.
borhood of my native Mercer.
Near Mercer, Me-. lived an editor
who once printed in his weekly paper
this editorial announcement:
"Tn view of the fact that we are un
able to pay the road tax Of So assessed
against us. we have been sentenced
to a period of confinement by the au.
tEorities. Consequently there will be
no issue of this paper for the next
month; but. as the state will have to
board us. we figure that we shall come
out some SIS ahead"

1t has been said by those who
profess to know and whose opin-
ions are valuable, that Everett
Kemp, who opens Our lecture and
entertainment courae at the land
office hall next Thursday evening,
has become recognized leader
among lyceum attractions. His
scholarly attainments, splendid
physique, beautiful voice and
charming personality. together
with his wide experience, peculiar
ly fit him for his work as an in
of human emotions. To
meet Mr.. Kemp is to be impress
ed that he has a consuming pur-
pose and that he must and will
succeed. His art is to interpret
life, and he does this with all the
varying shades and subtle emot-
ions peculiar to this great humani-
ty of ours. He is born cOmedi-
an and brings to his audience that
rare treat-clean, pure fun. His
humor is delicious. Everybody
likes his funny people, but best of
all they like him. To have the
blues while Kemp is. around is
out of the question. His is the
smile that pushes back the clouds
and radiates sunshine and good
fellowship. Many have said. it's
worth the price just to hear Kemp
laugh" But he is not always
laughing and making others.laugh.
His fine sympathic nature, wide
versatility and keen perception en-
ables to interpret the more serious
side of life in way to delight the
popular as well as literary audiece.
