They're saucy and they're tickle and
They're mighty hard to please.
We have to cater to them all
Upon our Bonded knees.
They're flighty and inquisitive,
Exasperatin', too.
And every man must find it out
Somehow before he's through.
They reason with suddenness
That makes fellow jump,
And they don't find it hard at all
To make him look a chump.
They canot give a reason for
A single thing they do.
They jump at conclusion with
No valid cause in view.
They're fussy and they're frivolous;
Sometimes it seems that way.
They're tender and they're heartless,
and
They're mournful and they're gay,
They're prudish and they're reckless,
In faults they all abound.
They cost lot of money, but
They're nice to have around.

Maryland Town Will Decide
Tonight What Names
Go on Ballot.

HYATTSvILLE, Nd, April 15.-Con-
ventions for the purpose of nominating
candidates for mayor, town treasurer,

of any eligible person he sees fit on
the ticket, and It must be counted.

and common council. AS soon as this
meeting adjourns each ward will hold
its convention, the First ward in Wells
hall, the Second ward in the Independ-
ent building, and the Third ward in the
council chambers.
The fights for several years have in
reality been a part of the factional
county fight in the Democratic party,
but an agreement has been reached
where both sides will unite on a man
who Is not a member of either faction.
Unless the plans fail Harry W. Shep-
herd will be nominated for mayor with
out opposition. His brother, W. A.
Shepherd will also have a clear field
in his run for reelection for town
treasurer. John G. Holden, manager
of the Hyattsville baseball team, will
be nominated for councilman from the
Third ward. There are no avowed
candidates from the other wards. The
holdover councilmen are w. A. Dorr,
First ward; o. A. Greager, Second
ward, and S. ]. Kelly, Third ward.
