WIHEN William Jennings Bryan returned,
w to New York after his trip through
South America, where he went to study thG
economics Of the country, he was asked
about every question in the reporter IepcI-
tory concerning his view Of things political
to all Of which the Colonel replied, without
answering the question.
Then they asked him about DIR. Cook;
what he thought Of the spectacular manner
in which he had discovered the pole.
"Wcll," said Mr.. Bryan, everywhere
went they said DR.. Cook had been in South
America; and then they told me that DR.
Cook was a Democrat, and asked me if
thought he had discovered the North Pole
told them thought it more probable that
4 Democrat had discovered the North Pole
than that Republican had
Asked what his particular reason for this
opinion was he replied:
"Well, simply because the Democrats
have been out in the cold such long time. ~

ALDRICH'S FRENCH
is PRETTY BAD

PARIS, May 25.-Former Senator
Nelson A Aldrich, far from American
politics, is having his muscles knead
ed at AK Les Bains, which j. Peir
pont Morgan has made so well known
to Americans. While the senator;
muscles are being kneaded, a stream
of hot soft water flows gently cvel
the parts treated.
Rheumatism takes flight immediate
ly and the senator's limbs are becom-
| ing as elastic as when he was a
youth of twenty.
Aldrich says that the douche mas
sage is an admirable restorative to
any one suffering from overwork and
log hours. The hot vapor in which
the patient swelters draws out pains
and ills and seems to restore youth,
and Aldrich takes a two-hours' treat
ment every morning
Like Morgan, the former senator
from Rhode Island is not strong on
French.
will you have a hot or cold treat
ment?" asked the attendant when AL
drich first came into the baths.
"Oui, oui, eyes, yesD, answered
Mr.. Aldrich.
The bewildered attendant was much
relieved when an American on the
other side of the partition acted as
interpreter.
when you go home, go straight to
bed" instructed the attendant, in
French, and this time it was the
American politician who was bewil-
dered.
Again the unknown interpreter
came to the rescue and received Al
drich's grateful thanks Who the
good Samaritan concealed in the next
apartment was is still puzzling the
former senator. But Aldrich has
vowed to master French forthwith.

DECORATION DAY.

Respect for the dead ought to be

Decoration Day Instead of joy and
frivolity, with baseball games and
dancing, as is too often the case, there
ought to be a spirit of reverence. AS
well might we make the anniversary
of our mothers death the occasion for
frivolous demonstrations, and devote
the time to sport and pleasure.
Decoration Day is set apart as a
fitting occasion for suitable services
in memory of men who gave their
lives in the cause of human liberty.
The nation in mortal combat. The is
sue involved great questions. Start
ing as a protest against slavery. it
became a question of saving the ma
ton from dissolution.
And out of the homes of the nation,
imbued only with high resolve to rend-
Ell a sacred duty in righteous cause
thousands OF the best young blood of
of America made forever sacred by
the ebbing tide of crimson that flow
ed from hearts that beat true to dGty's
call Mothers, as kind and loving as
yours; sisters, devoted and true;
wives, with blue-eyed babes, kissed
their sons, brothers, fathers and
husbands last goodby, and watched,
with streaming eyes, the departing
hosts to the field of conflict Thou
sands of these loved ones never re-
turned. They died that you and |
might enjoy a higher blessing, and
that our flag might not be dishonored
and destroyed They died that no
star might be torn from the field of
blue; no stripe be sacrificed.

the wound began to heal; after the
heat of conflict and the clash of
arms had given way to sober though

A Gentle Protest.

1t has seemed to the writer par
ticularly unfortunate that the school,
authorities of Moscow permit the use
of the public school for addresses ''to
evangelsts and their cO-workers II
there were no other reason the abso-
lutte freedom from the imposition OF
particular and sectarian religious be-
liefs guaranteed in our schools by our
constitution is of itself enough to
condemn such practices. 1t is the
purpose of the public schools to build
character, and character building is
something far different from sensa-
tiCnal discussions by passers-by be-
fore a chance collection of girls in
the adolescent age. Character is
found in Christian poise; not, and
never, in sensationalism.
! But it is especially unfortunate at
this time that the authorities have
consented to the use of the high school
building, as in today's meeting for
girls, for such a purpose Regardless
of whether the charges against a local
minister be true, those charges CEN
ter around number of girls who ave
been members of church societies and
were, or are students in the high
school. 1t is certainly not the part
of building to infiame the
disgusting suggestion in that scandal
which has come so near to high school
associations.
There are certain mysteries of life
which every young person must some
time know, but which they should
know only from the lips of parent,
pastor or physician. This is the Il ost
sacred question touching our earthly
life 1t should be treated frankly, with
reverence and dignity; should be
treated in confidence, and then left,
once and for all, as a question be-
tween the child and his God. Ignor
ance and innocence are never the
same Prudery and pruriency often
are BIZ between sensationalism and
Christian poise and character there is
nothing in common.

to either sex, but of all ages from II
