CHANGING GUIDES

Across the mounds of years We 60,
A weary cavalcade,
Another year we've journeyed DER,
And change of guides is made.
Well leave behind the dreary days
The old guide took us through;
He's at the end of his long trail
And now he says adieu.
The new guide has a mufled face
And none his voice can hear,
And yet we all believe in him
And wish each other cheer.
Ay, wish each other happiness,
And say the new guides best;
All, weary, weary, traveller,
God grant he brings you rest!

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN

Woman may be divided into two
classes. anchors and sails. The under
standing is, of course, that the good
ship Man is our center of observation
There are women who hold men
down and women who stir men UP.
Whichever kind man has he usual
ly thinks that he might have amount
ed to more if he had had the other
kind.
In many mems minds, and womer's,
too dissatisfaction seems to resemble
deep thinking.
If We cannot be profound, we can
at least be unhappy and fatter' our
selves that we are great natures, mis-
understood.
But there are some women who are
champagne, and others who are seda-
tives.
And what a woman is to a man is
matter for the most part out Of her
control
1t lies in her spiritual bouquet, her
souls penumbra, the electric radio
dynamic of her personality.
A woman can mend her ways, and
change her mind, but she cannot alter
the essence of her womanliness.
She is one kind or another by the
grace of God, and no soap and nitre
! can take off her born ta1nt.
| She can move her will about, as q
sailor moves the rudder, and go this
way or that: but no amount of steer
/ ing and mastery can make a brig out
of schooner.
Have you read these lines of Arthur
| Stringer?
There are winners faces, lad,
| That are wind and fire,
Stirrin' UP the whole world,
Wakin' ould desire.
And there's other wimmen, faith,
Calm and still through all,
Shtickin' to their one love
Till the hivens fall.
Ones as fine as hell fire;
Ones as thrue as life;
One yen leave and weep for,
And one yell take to wife"

CONGRESS Is pAlLYINe.

Not a little confusion has been &C.
casioned by the failure Of congress to
provide for the pay of government Of
ficials after the close Of the fiscal year.
This has all been caused by not giving
the proper attention TO the business
before II. When the president vetoed
the army appropriation bill it was
conceded that he would do the same
70 the legislative. judicial and execu-
tive bill should it be presented to him
as Il stands at present This has been
apparent long enough TO have con-
gress govern itself accordingly, buc
Il was only Thursday that the senate
appointed a committee In conference
on the bill
The objection TO the bills is occas-
ioned by the riders which they con-
tain for the purpose Of carrying
through important legislation at the
expense of important bills. 1t is the
proposed action on the commerce
court and the judges which meets
with the disapproval Of the president
and which viii doubtless call forth
his veto II included in the bill. 1t is
the proper rebuke to such form Of leg
islstion and appeals are being sent
70 members Of congress for the re-
tention Of the Tarnsey act. which is
dropped in the sundry civil bill. This
hss meant the saving Of thousands
a. dollars by placing the architectural
work on government buildings out to
competition. II has been in force for
years and is a wise provision, which
should be retained.

HELPING THE FARMER.

Following a three years investigs-
lion Of the credit banks in South
America and Europe. the first Of the
kind to be opened in this country will
be a. Joliet. H., and it will follow the
plant Of Credit Foncier of France.
This start will doubtless be quickly
followed by others. for it is being rec
oenized that the proper way Of treat
ing the farmers problem is by such
q method This is why the European
farmers lave such an advantage over
're American ullers Of the soil. They
are able a. get money at a much lower
rate than the farmers Of this country
IN .heir business, and this is vital
matter. The Belgians are particularly
favored I'm that they can secure credit
m their farms by certificates Of char
lcfer.
Fer 2 long time the farmers have
BEEN endeavoring to secure better
mcrer conditions. particularly IN the
v-siorn states. and It IS Ia that Sec
lion where the experiment with the
farm c,eCit bank Is to be made. An
Interesting feature connected with the
..ga Is the scheme to pay Off these
loans In six months periods, If the
plan proves successful It will meet the
ends served by the large cooperative
societies in Germany, where a coop
erative banking business is done to
an extent OF $4,000. 10000 year, on
terms and conditions WHICH cannot be
obtained by the American farmer.

(Written Specially for The Bulletin)
June is the time when so many
turn their thoughts and attention to
Graduation exercises, and an eventful
monthsit Is to many of our young peo-
pie. Whether it be from Grammar
school, or college, graduation is an
important time to them all. 1t finds
them united group having followed
the same road together for years,
many or few, as the chance may have
been; 1t leaves them dismembered
band, at the parting of the ways, some
taking one direction, some to travel in
another but probably, never again to
meet each other as an entire class.
To the older ones watching their happy
faces this thought often occurs, but to
those most directly concerned, the
,present triumph of attainment over
powers any feeling of sadness with re-
gard to the future. Their skies are
serene and cloudless, and well for
them is it so. Their visions are all
rosy in hue and draw them forward
with no fear of failure. Success is
the one word in their vocabulary as
they receive with respectful attention
all the good advice showered upon
them, and certainly for them all, we
wish their fondest hopes may be real
lied.
Much of the space in the current
papers is devoted to these graduating
classes, especially the local High school
and Grammar school, and in all we
find SO much concerning the Sweet
Girl Graduate, who seems to be the
theme of all the glowing descriptions
now appearing in print. Well, she
merits it all, for she is an attraction
not to be overlooked and nothing can
be more winsome and full of beauty
than the Rosebud Garden of Girls to
be seen on such an occasion.

to go for the evening, felt repaid as
they looked at the pretty group, and

their sisters graduate, swelled with

A believer in the force of thought
says: we lose vigor through thinking
continually the same set of thoughts.
New thought Is new life" This doesn't
look just right to me, but there is no
use of turning it down without giving
it due consideration. A set Of mus
cles constantly exercised make a lop
sided man; but the use of the full 500
muscles of the body creates a perfect
physical condition. New exercise
brings into play new muscles, and new
thought may lead to broader vision,
clearer conception and greater power,
so 1 do not feel afraid of new thought
One set of thoughts represents limited
thought, and limited thought never yet
produced a broad mind. A narrow
minded man is always vigorous enough
within his limits, but he is not always
just in his conclusions. New thoughts
denote progress, and progress means
broadening views, and broadening
views mean larger conceptions of life,
ard these mean new life. sure SO
new thought is new life Take down
the bars and let your thoughts caper a
little for a change.

ADVANCED MEAT PRICES.

With all that has been said and
done against the constantly soaring
prices Of commodities, the cost of liv-
ing is steadily increasing. There has
been another advance In the price Of
meat from one to two cents a pound,
putting it still further away from the
working man. Naturally, this is apt
TO cause people to stop eating meat
in such large quantities and boycotts
are on in big cities. The fish and
vegetable dealers are getting the benz
eft of the trade. The cry of the
packers has been that the supply was
not equal to the demand, but the re-
port of the livestock movements re-
ceived by the bureau of statistics shows
an increase in receipts for the past
five months, compared with similar
period last year. but in May there
was a decrease over last May. This
was true both of the interior and east
ern markets. The receipts of livestock
during the FIVE months ending with
May were greater during that period
than at any similar period during the
past decade The stock of meat on
hand in five of the centers totaled over
S20,0O0,000 pounds, or considerably
more than during that month last
year, or even 1910.
This means that either the boycotts
are having their effect or else there
is not the shortage that is claimed.
Whether there is a shortage, the value
Of the expectations exceeded by several
million those of last year. The cost
of living promises to be one of the
big issues of the next few years, in
which the president has made recon-
mendations that an International in
vestigation be made. Surely everyone
viii be interested in seeing it made
and a reduction made in prices.

CIRCULATION
CRAFTY BRYAN.

The democratic convention is hay
ing a characteristic time at Baltimore
and At a late hour. while Bryan has
been handling most of the matters to
suit his taste he has not been able to
direct the convention into his way of
thinking, the larger part Of his own
states delegation going for Clark. He
has advocated a number of measures
which have appealed to the conven
tion. and IN their adoption the lead
ership OF the Peerless One stood out
prominently. When he advocated the
delaying Of the platform until after
the candidate had been chosen. he de-
lsyed cutting the cloth to fit the wear
er, instead Of laying out a garment
and expecting the candidate to fill an
odd size. The stand against the unit
rule was another move which indi-
Gates a pulling away from the old
democratic principle There is no rea-
son to presume that his leadership has
been volunteered without an eye to
the future and the hope that it would
land him the coveted honor again.
When Mr.. Bryan made his move
against Ryman, Belmont and the in
terests he considered that he had play
ed a card which would create a big
fight in the convention. 1t was 50
easy that it showed no test and ap-
parently made no gains for him, but
1t was in fact intended as a
thrust at Harmon. This was

strengthen his chances when the time
