Just By the Way

of the Inconsistency of Things.

OF the INCONSISTENCY OF Thfngs.
Something tells me when I'm sad
That a brighter hour will Gomez;
Something warns me when I'm glad
That Ill soon be feeling bum.
Love may frown-I don't despair.
She will smile before we sever
Yet | do not walk OF air
Love can't sit and grin forever.
Never crouch because it rains,
Don't get because it's sunny;
When you're broke look out for gains
When you're flush you save your
money.
Fear when everything is bright,
Hope when all you luck deserts you;
Frown when Fortune treats you right.
Laugh aloud when something hurts
you.
What a world this world would be
If we'd play this dope, my boy!
Dives filed with misery,
Lazarus filled with joy.
All earth's pleasures would belong
To the sick, unhappy sinners
All its woes to those who throng
Nightly to their ten-course dinners.

DR.. Charles f.. Kraemer says 1t is
all right to be elected to an office, but
not so pleasant when you are defeated
after you have devoted a lot of time
and spent a lot of money. The doctor
knows, as he has had both experiences.
Alderman Elmer Day says that while
South several months ago he actually
saw the LATEST man on earth. He was
an aged darkey, who stood at a rail-
road crossing waiting for the gates to
be raised SO that the match he held in
his hand To light his pipe would ignite.
1t was al least ten minutes before a
long freight had passed, but neyerthe-
less, the darkey was patient n was
finally rewarded when the gates went
UP,
There was a time said Richard G..
Jenkinson, when a man was consid-
cred wealthy if worth $10o, 900. But now
u man is counted comparatively poor
unless he has much more than that
This is a generation of millionaires.
The old saying. however, is Only three
generations from shirt sleeve to shirt
sleeve and I believe that the next
generation will see our millionaire de-
scendants, many of them, begging
bread.
yet | think that the same proper
ton of Individual wealth will continue
to grow, and that a man who Is re-
puted wealthy with one million today
will have TO pile up several millions in
order to be classed among the wealthy
in the generations that are to come"

FRANCE TO DEAL WITH CORNERS.

oTN HE Chicago wheat pit would be put out of business if Congress
should pass and the President should sign such a bill as
the French government has introduced. 1t makes punishable
with a maximum of two years Imprisonment and $4,000 fine any
operation, or, otherwise, corner that brings about a change in
prices of provisions or other merchandise which would not have
been caused by free competition. France is evidently determined
to take hold of the cost of living problem in ii more drastic manner
than is likely to be attempted for some time in this country.

4 e NAME FOR NV AMERIcAM EoRI

m N act by the American government that must be keenly ap
IA preciated in France is the naming of one of the forts to
defend the Panama canal after Ferdinand De Lesseps, the
great French engineer who built the Suez canal and attempted to
eanalize the Panama isthmus. The naming of the fort IS a sincere
American tribute to the memory of a world benefactor, who made
one great highway for civilization and might have linked the At.
