charge that Wall street had contrib

The country believed Roosevelt.
The country did not know him then.
Judge Parker knew whereof he spoke,
but the refusal OF the man who gave
him the facts on which he based his
charge TO release him from a pledge
not TO give out the facts without the
informants permission, stopped
Judge Parker from substantiating his
charge.
That proof, however, has reached
the public since. 1t came in the
course Of the insurance investigation
when the fact was developed that
George W Perkins-the same who is
now at Armageddon battling for the
Lord'-reached his hands into the
treasury Of the New York Life, into
orphans. into the pockets of shrouds,
and took therefrom $4,000 for the

WAITING.

GONE people sit around and hum
~ The while they hope and trust
That opportunity may come
And on them fortune thrust
And II may happen, don't you know,
To these same hopeful chaps
Once in a thousand years or so
And oftener. perhaps.
BY rule luck does not run along.
Nor does it stop on call.
For sometimes when it should be strong
II isn't there at all.
At other moments when a lad
Seems from it far apart
1t comes along to make him glad
And warm his weary heart
OF course the safer way is not
To wait for II to come
And hand you out a corner lot
And be your little chum.
It's better on the job to stick
Or freeze to some good trade.
You may without it turn the trick
And be your own first aid.
That method does not seem to please
Some persons you may know.
They'd rather live life Of ease
And watch the lilies grow,
And il they strike it, well and good,
But IL the world goes wrong
They wouldn't think of saving wood
To help their luck along.

PERT PARAGRAPHS.

1t is easy enough to he good when
the devil has nothing really interesting
in sight.
The trouble is the politicians don't
just understand what would happen
TO the graft industry if women were
permitted to amuse themselves with
the little white ballot.
Occasionally we meet a man whose
idea of getting even with a fellow he
doesn't like consists in Kicking his pet
dog on the sly.
You can't always see through a man
who has a clear conscience
A woman may not be afraid of a
mouse and still not be able to bear all
the burdens the opposite sex insist
upon relieving her weakminded sister
from.
Men are not vain. Still, if you want
to make a hit don't intimate that any
particular man is developing a bald
spot.
Some persons want what belongs TO
them. Others spend their time want
ing what belongs to the other fellow.

tainly there Is every prospect that
several times 1000 Montenegrins will
have fallen in a fortnight more. And
Montenegro has only about 100000
inhabitants. including the babies. II
falls considerably short of half the
population Of Cleveland, Ohio.
The loss OF more than 1000 mer
in that country means about one in
every $50 inhabitants. In the United
States that would call for more than
100000 men. In Germany it would
put 100000 soldiers out of action. A
like proportion of losses in Great
Britain would cost 1SO,0 In brief
any such sacrifices, in one week Of
war, by great nation would be the
sensation of modern military history
II would shock the world and stand
out as the most terrific struggle of the
age.
Such facts tell better than words

ing and what they are. Cold figures
show their wonderful courage anC
