SIGNS OF THE TIMES


A Washington statesman says that
he assumes to control only one vote
his own. It must be that the gen.
tleman is not married.
A man may adore every hair IN
his wife's head, but regard with
mixed emotions the hair on her
bureau.
Yes. the cost of living is going up.
From a recent experience at a sum-
mer resort We find that il cost 800
more per season to get a coat of tan
than it used to.
Most young men can support the
young women Of their hearts in the
manner TO which they have been ac-
customed, but the young men would
be ashamed TO.
Most of US are made unhappy BY
picking our blessings before they are
ripe. Many a man with a four
cylinder salary has invested in a six
cylinder car.

Albany, N. Y, November 19.-Em-
phatic denial that he ever participated
in a meeting at which Everett Fowler
was appointed collector of democratic
campaign funds was made tonight by
John a Dix, former governor.
81 never heard of such a meeting
until l recently read about it in the
newspapers" he said. Further than
that, I don't believe Fowler ever was
in the executive mansion during my
incumbency.
"At no time have L been interested
in collecting campaign funds for my
candidacy or that of any other COVER
norship candidate. When l made my
race l paid my own expenses and what
other candidates for governor did 1 do
not know. The story is absolutely
false"

-Four years ago, Loveman, Joseph &
Loeb held the most important sale OF
books that had ever been conducted in
Birmingham. 1t was important because it
was sale that featured unusual books in
fine bindings at the most extraordinary
prices. Such sale has not been made pos
sible again until now. The Lamb Publish

is the greatest clearing house in America
for subscription book publishers. Such
famous organizations as the Nottingham

ing Love is fainting and gasping on
the way. am almost longing for my
old quiet-my old independence. am
afraid ! take things too seriously,
and, yet, sometimes think that my
very love for Dick and his for me
makes both of us more sensitive to
every impression.
Lovers nerves have been aptly
compared to strings of a wind harp.
If you leave the strings of such an
instrument in a state of very loose
tension, they resemble the nerves of
ordinary mortals not in love, for it
takes very strong breeze to elicit
sound from them. But raise them to
higher tension as are strung the
nerves of those greatly in love and
the faintest breath will set in unison
all the harmonies or send sounds
jangling through the air which will
hurt the very SOUL.
Keats has said: "'Tis the pest of
Love that fairest joys bring most I'M
rest"
think most of my unrest is be-
cause ! am not able to separate the
raptures of love from the annoyances
of every day. Dick can do this; he
can put his love away till'he wants it,
but mine is always on parade to be
jostIed and hurt by the rabbIe of self
analysis and worry.
Men have such good forgotten

lives anything which annoys them.
Dick was awfuIly angry at his

VALPO DOCTORS
EXAMINE MEYERS

Three Valparaiso doctors were pulled
into the case of Joseph Meyers against
the Chicago, Lake Shore and South
Bend railroad yesterday, and testified
before the jury after they had each
examined Meyers, the plaintiff, to de-
termine his constitutional condition.
DR.. Douglas, DR.. Stoner and DR.. Lor-
ing were the physicians who figured in
the suit, says the Valpo Vidette.
Meyers is suing for a large sum of
money for personal injuries which he
alleges he sustained when the car in
which he was riding on the South
Shore line was struck by a locomotive.
The case was directed at first against
the Baltimore & Ohio Chicago Termi-
nal and the Chicago Terminal Transfer
companies besides. but has narrowed
down to one, with the South Shore
alone. Attorney Bomberger of Ham
mond. who represented the other roads
has retired from action, as nothing
could be proved against his clients. F.
j. Lewis Meyer of South Bend for the
remaining defendant is fighting the
case alone against w. j. McAleer of
Hammond and d. E. Kelley Of this
city.
