DYSPEPTIC PHILOSOPHY.

What the theater really needs is q
Society for the Prevention of Cruelty
to Audiences.
Why are We supposed to have more
respect for gray hairs than for bald
head?
A man can face the world with a
good heart if he can also face It with
a good liver.
From a masculine point of view
would it be heresy to question the sex
of the devil?
Some fat men are meaner than 9TH
er men simply because there is more
of them.
Many a man who thinks he is in
love lives to discover that second
thoughts are best.
Some men are born great, some &C.
quire greatness and others have great
ness thrust upon them, but it doesn't
seem to take any of them long to get
rid of it.

HAND PAINTED CARDS
PRETTY REMEM6 RANGES FOR
THE NATAL DAY.
Nothing More Welcome Can BE Of
fered Friend Than Something That
Is Ones own Work-Two
Good Designs Here.

Perhaps you number among your
friends or relations some one who has
q birthday this month. II so, let me
suggest that you send handmade
birthday card to the one who is grow.
ing old.
The simple drawings before you
should be traced on cards or paper.
With delicate colors they should be
painted, and an appreciative verse
written as your good wish.
Pale yellow and green can be used
on the border Of tulips. The little
verse should be written at the top.
The side arrangement of ribbon
and roses is another style. Blues and
plnks and yellows can be used. In.
deed, the real colors need not be adj.
hered to strictly. Any delicate bios
SONY" effect will do.
Then there is a card with the trees
In bloom. Pale green, covered with
pink blossoms, gives a lovely effect.
This is a delightful little orchard to
send to your friends.
The wreath and ribbon can be done
In a favorite color. Yellow and pale
green. pink flowers. white and green
with colored ribbon are suggestions
for coloring.
Here are some little verses to In
scribe:
The daisies peep from every field.
The violets sweet odor yield;
The purple blossom paints the thorn.
The stream reflects the blush OF morn
The newborn May
AS Graded yet in April's lap she lay.
Born in yon blaze OF orient sky,
Sweet Mayi Thy radiant form unfold,
And wave thy shadowy locks OF gold.
IT'S like the birthday OF tho world,
When earth was born In bloom.
The light Is made or many dyes.
The air is ali perfume.
Hebe'a here. May is here!
The afr is fresh and sunny;
And the miser-bees are busy
Hoarding golden honey.

Protection is
Against Prosperity.

President Taft is making q trip
through the west as a preacher OF
prosperity" but IL he IL really a
preacher of prosperity. then he has, his
sermons mixed with someone else who
does not preach on this subject
Now Mr.. Taft is preaching protection
and attempting to show why he vetoed
the farmers free list bill and the others
tending TO lower the tariffs on certain
articles of food and clothing and farm
ing implements.
Protection does mean prosperity for
those few who become rich at the ex-
pense OF the masses. but protection
does not mean prosperity for the
farmer, the workman and nine-tenths
Of the people who must pay the exor-
bitant tariffs.
Prosperity IL coming to this nation
some time real soon, but 1t will not
come through protective tariffs. 1t will
come when all businesses are conducted
upon their merits and when the work
ing man will receive dollar for q dol
lars worth OF work and when he may
buy a dollars worr< Of goods for q
hard earned dollar.

Spicey Comment on the
Ball Game by Rube Editors

Those Journal boys are just the
finest ever. but they can't play base
ball
That is TO say when contesting with
those of their own ginger snap eating
.caiibre they do very well, but when
they went UP against the gang whose
morning repast is nghtwood knots,
varied for dinner by hickory limbs. and
washed down with the limpid spring
water from the sparkling springs for
which West Florida is so famous, they
just can't, that is all there is to 1t.

regret was expressed. Hub Allen acted
in that capacity. and under his able
generalship the score board showed .

NUTS from down DeLuna way. To tell
the plain, unvarnished, naked truth,
the Reubens might as well have made
1t Is or so, but we were there as their
guests, and the appreciation Of hos
pitality which is SO CHARACTERISTIC OF
West Florida people broke out on Hub
worse than ever, and he issued orders
that It must not be too bad, but we
want to say here and now, that for
this state of affairs the editor OF this
paper is In no wise to blame. Very
much to his surprise as well as the
establishment of the assembled thou
sands, he hit the ball one time, but the
Journal in It's illustrated account 70
the game gives az q reason why ne old
not knock a home run every time ne
came to bat was that there were three
holes in his bat, and we are wiling to
let II go at that-this time.
To give the game in its technical de-
tail would be uninteresting; 1t was too
one sided for that. for those Journal
boys, while the best on earth, can't
play ball. Let il suffice to say that
with IA players in the lineup, Fred
Schad as umpire and Bonnie Burnham
recreant to her solemn promise to wear
a red bandanna handkerchief and root
for the Rubes, the score was six to I'VE
In favor of the Rubes, for, as before
remarked, those Journal boys are the
best on earth, but they just can't play
ball.
Seriously speaking, it was an outing
thoroughly enjoyable from start to
finish, a good natured contest between
the employees of West F1orida's jour
nalistic pride and the editors and en-
ployes of the country press, that
should and will serve to increase the
bond of unity of purpose and effort In
boosting the best section on earth
West F1orida-but let 1t be remem-
bered that while the Journal boys are
the best on earth, they can't play
baseball.

During the next few months candi-
dates for the house OF Representatives
and candidates for state senator VIII
be making their announcements for Of
nee. In fact, many have already made
their announcements and have begun
the campaign.
Before support IN promised to any
candidate he ought to state positively
whether he will vote to ratify the con-
stitutotnal amendment providing for
federal income tax This is most i'm
portant question and one which needs
the help of the state of Florida.
The amendment was before the
legislature at the recent session and it
was defeated because Of what many
thought was technical point, but the
opponents of the amendment dug up
the technical point and it il reasonable
to suppose that they will make as
fierce fight next time the legislature
meets, If in fact they do not begin the
fight in trying to elect men. who wiz
vote against ratifying the amendment.
The purpose of the amendment is
well known to all. It simply provides
that congress shall have the right to
levy an income tax when 1t is deemed
expedient to do so and 1t makes It pos
sible to get at the pocketbook Of the
rich who are now evading paying their
part Of the taxes.
1t is not q question Of the states
losing their rights although some of
thA cnnouanfs To the measure say that
It is. The opponents are opposed to
an income tx, no matter where the
authority is vested.
So often little Judgment II used In
selecting the representatives and the
people realize too late the mistake. and
yet the mistake is made repeatedly is
| why The Journal makes the suggestion
at this time that every candidate who
| does not promise to support the amend
| ment should be turned down.
| There are other important questions
which affect the state and the counties
and every candidate should tell where
ne stands on them but the federal in
come tax amendment is one which af-
fects the entire United States and
Florida should be among those to rati-
~ It.
The journal is satisfied that three
fourths Of the people of the state want
the amendment to be ratified, but to
candidates for the senate and lower
house ought to be made~to tell where
they stand.

According to Hub Allen.

According to Hub Allen.
On last Monday the Rubens of the
West Florida press demonstrated
thoroughly that they were the mas
tiers Of The Pensacola Journal in the
art of ball playing. After much big
talk and Dragging by The Journal the
Rubes invaded their city and ruth
lessly slaughtered the aforesair near
ball players. The Rubes are salts
fed; they were royalty treated by
The Journal people. They were taken
to the San Carlos, where they were
royalty entertained. Just to have been
taken in would have been good enough
without the good things that were
spread before them. The Rubes say
it was impossible for them to lose
with Uncle 81 Lillard and Hughey on
the Goa ching lire. At any rate all
West Florida is glad the Rubes won,
and no doubt next year they will go
down and repeat the dose.
It was a glorious victory, and while
1t is but human to feel elated over
ones own success yet there is withal
a tinge of sadness and pity in wit
Messing the overthrow and utter dis
comf1ture of a brave and gene Gus foe.
Alas, it is ever true that pride goeth
before a fall" Our esteemed contem-
porary, the Pensacola Journal in an

can plan an occasion Of this kind, the
score would have been different, but
once more, while they are the best on
earth. they just can't play baseball.
After the menu OF seven courses had
been given home run Mr.. Mack, who
acted as POSTMASTER, introduced Mayor
Reilly, who put in words the welcome
we had already received, and for the
Reubens the Breeze man was the one
to respond. Hub Allen, Ed Williams
Editor Felkel of the News, who ex-
planned the absence Of the rest of the
News boys IN way that was readily
believable. His Jumps and Geo. T.
James Creelman Morgan were the
other speakers of the evening, which
closed with three cheers for the Jour
nal boys, who, while the best on earth,
just can't play baseball.
Ed Williams's makeup was the
creme de la creme Of a get up.

If the applause from the grand stand
is to be evidence. half OF Pensacola is,
or have been, Rubes.
Maybe the News bunch wasn't glad ?
They were there from the editor down
to the devil. Some of the Journal
crowd said that Sanborn's sympathy
was attributed to the fact that he came
from Sopchoppy. but that was a base
SANDER, born or envy.
The next feature OF the game is
going to be the libel suit Of the Breeze
man against Hub Allen for $40, 1000, 000
damages If he repeats the base fabri-

And to conclude, The Journal boys
