ACCORDING TO UNCLE AeNeR


 Miss Amy Pringle, our milliner, had a party at her house the other even- ing. The party was a travelin' drum mer from down to the city.
 Uncle Ezra Harkins has been visit ng his nephew down to the city, but has come home disgusted He says they have breakfast in bed, and he never could eat layin' down, and he therefore didn't get any satisfaction out'n it.
 There is one satisfaction in Twin in the country and that is there is no front sidewalk Co shovel. All a feller has Co do in the morning is to shovel path a half mile long from the Kitchen door to the barn. from there about eighty yards to the corn crib and then about four blocks around 10 the pig pen. By the time he gets that done, if it's snowin' any he has got to turn around and shovel his way back over the same route to the kitchen door.
 Miss Pansy Tibbits has got an en- ring from her feller and the diamond in it don't look any big ger than a nickel's worth of radium. It's a genuine solitaire, though. and those solitaires are the best kind of diamonds, so they say.

POLITICAL PROSPECTS

1t seems pretty certain now that Col
Roosevelt will be a candidate for the
presidential nomination. President Taft
will not strike his colors in advance of
the convention, it is said, so there will
be pretty trial of strength between
the two. 1t seems just now as if the
one who will suffer the most by the
recrudescence of Rooseveltism will be
LaFollette. AS for other candidates,
there are few worth mentioning at pre-
ent in the ranks of the Republican
party.
Among the Democrats the situation
is still unchanged. Wilson, Clark and
Harmon continue to be the most dis
cussed. Bryan has a very strong in
fluence and it seems to be felt that
without his Endorsement no man can
get the Demo cratic nomination. He
is friendly to Clark, but he has been
somewhat lukewarm towards the Mis-
sourian of late Nevertheless, Clark
seems to be growing steadily if grad
ually, while some of his rivals are los
ing gorund. Take it all in all, the sit
uation is one Of absorbing interest to
all Students of politics.
