There will be a scramble among
the prominent Democrats Of the state
for the seat in the u. s. senate
made vacant by the death of Senator
Chas. ]. Hughes. AS the legislature
is in session. it will be up to that
body to elect a successor. There arc
several aspirants for the position. AL
va Adams is candidate, beyond
dispute. 1t is said that Mayor Speer
and Governor Shafroth; also c. s.
Thomas. have longing for the posi-.
tion. OF course. much OF this is
nothing but newspaper talk. Just the
evening before Senator Hughes died
Mayor Speer came out in signed
statement to the effect that he was
not candidate for the senate in
case Senator Hughes resigned and
wouldn't think Of resigning from the
mayoralty OF Denver. 1t is doubtful
II Governor Shafroth would seek the
honor at this time. His second ad
ministration has Just commenced and
he feels that he should fill out the
term. He in all probability will be q
candidate for the senate two years
hence to succeed Guggenhcim. Char.
ley Thomas has absolutely no claim
apon the position whatever, He has
deserted the Democratic party and
gone over to the Citizens, Indcpcnd-
ents or some other combination OF
hybrids. Had Thomas remained with
the Democratic party. there is nc
question but that he would be chosen
the successor to Senator Hughes. He
would then have been the man most
entitled to the position. But Mr..
Thomas never did display any politi-
cal judgment and for man who has
been In public life as long as he has.
and has been 80 prominently idcnti
fiod with the politics Of tho state

We have heard Of instances

We have heard of instances OF
weather reports that came true.
The woman who can manage a hus-
band can usually manage pretty well
without one.
This is the time of the year that
contracts are let to pave that famous
and well-traveled road that is said to
be macadamized with good intentions.
Don't it beat all that when you
meet someone's eye unexpectedly and
feel compelled to say something. some
nonsensical thing comes to your
mouth and bu'sts right out.
A man can sometimes get a long
ways with a young lady by sitting
still-and holding her on his lap.
A few long scars on the side OF a
young mans face, may not be suffi-
cient circumstantial evidence that his
whiskers have started to grow, but
they're an infallible sign that "pater
familias" is going to swear the next
time he tries to use his razor.
The wife is truly suspicious when
she can't receive letter from her
husband with flower in 1t without
wondering how much he paid by the
dozen.
Sermons don't seem SO bad when
you read them in the paper.
The man who knows how, and
knows how to show others how, is
the man whose services are in de-
mand.
There are many things we all wish
we knew and many more that we
wish we didn't know.
No one deserves applause for doing
his duty.
Every person has some good point
look out for it.
A man will romance to his sweet
heart about the ethereal delights and
pleasures that are to be his after
marriage-and then demands steak
and fried potatoes the first meal.
There is no fool like the fool who
tries to fool himself.
Anyway an egotist uses his Is as
much as his tongue.
A large voice is impressive until it
gets oppressive.
Sometimes a woman looks the worse
way for a man.
An angel of wife Is one who sees
to the worldly comforts of her spouse
The man who conserves his conver-
sation always has something to say.
A woman will do anything for love
and man will do anything for a wom-
an, SO there hadn't ought to be many
things left undone in this world.
Don't get to feeling forsaken. Your
sins will find you out.

Rockefeller Enjoys This Ono.

When he was motoring Mr.. Rocke-
feller was a random story-teller and
Joker. He once told me that II he
could not tell stories and could not
joke he would have been dead forty
years ago. To illustrate his taste In
stories and fun. let me recall a few.
Here II one Mr.. Rockefeller credited
to his New York lawyers:
A farmer was driving q team OF
horses with heavy load up a steep
hill. Down the hill came a man In a
little. light buggy and cried out: III
you do not turn out for me l will serve
you the same as did another man
passed back yonder."
At this the farmer with the heavy
load turned out When the other man
had passed the farmer stopped his
horses and called after him. Hey,
what did you do to the fellow back
there?"
"Oh." was the answer, T turned out
for him." This story of q successful
blum seemed to tickle Mr.. Rockefeller
hugely.-American Magazine.

Domestic Service In Family Ussd 10
Be an institution Of Pleas
q ant Importance.

We note that q so-called "hired
girl" has lived with one family 81
years. What a compliment that II to
the girl. and likewise to the family!
The domestic service in a family
used to be an institution Of pleasant
importance. and the relationship often
extended through many years. 1t was
not uncommon to- have the same girl
in the family ten or fifteen years.
In those days domestic service was
regarded as Just as honorable as keep
ing store or running a typewriter.
which 1t 10. We remember a girl at
our home many a summer ago. who
came from prominent family in the
country. and she stayed years for
$1.2b week. but SLIPS amounted to
great deal more than it does in
these denegerate days. That girl
maintained a beautiful sway over the
family joys. She was supreme and
modest at the time. The children
would go to her for bread and butter
pieces and to have their clothes but
toned up. She sat at tables with the
rest OF the family. But that was in
the golden age before the maids and
servants came. and when a quiet and
loving service was the best test Of q
persons worth.
We need a new word for ''hired
girl" Servant. domestic. maid ol
kitchen girl conveys a meaning oi
inferiority which does not belong tc
the case. Such person is a superior
being. Anyone who holds the des
tiny Of family in her fists is no sub
ordinate. She occupies a throne
from vhich graciousness is expected
though not always Forthcoming. A
good hired girl is like an honest man

ANKLETs COMING IN AGAIN
Present Fashion Of Short skirts Re-
sponsibie for Return to Bar
barlc Shackie.

Anklets are now to be purchased in
the West end. but we should say the
sale for the barbaric shackle will be
limited. There are certain to be a few
women. to whom freak fashions spe-
cially appeal. who will adopt the new
idea. though the sensible. level-headed
English girl is not likely to take 1t up.
The anklet idea Is the outcome Of the
present fashion Of very short dresses,
khfgh-heeled patent leather shoes, and
[bkilliantly- -colored stockings. which in
Itself Il bad enough without the addi-
tion OF q bangle to further attract at
tention. The fashion" 1t goes without
saying. comes from Paris. where 1t has
been taken up to an extent. but only
by those inclined to eccentricity In
dress.
But after all. tho wearing Of anklets
would be merely the revival of an old
fashion Three generations ago 1t was
not unusual to see a bangle round the
ankle. and a famous wearer of this
ornament was the wife of the third
duke Of Cleveland, the old duchess who
died in 1883. at the age Of ninety-one.
She had very small feet, and. to display
them. would often sit upon q table, and
let her anklet fall down over her foot
One day friend equally proud Of her
