MY SWEETHEART
Her cheek is like the blushing rose;
Her starlike eyes are fair to see;
Her swanlike neck and Grecian nose
Have surely made a hit with me.
She has two shell-like ears so cute,
And hair that's like golden shear.
When I'm near her I'm stricken
mute
Her beauty's quite beyond belief.
She never seems to move an eye
Or make cen one coquettish sign
When other men are passing by,
And so l guess that she's all mine.
She always wears the gladstone smile
Whene'er l gaze upon her face,
She's of the kind that's well worth
while,
l simply marvel at her grace.
She never talks about her friends
And never says a thing that hurts.
She's dignified and ne'er unbends;
She Is propriety in skirts.
She wears the finest gowns that |
Have ever seen; I'll tell you that
She is a girl to pattern by
From suede shoes to picture hat.
I'd like to warm up to that girl
That is the way I've often felt,
But If I did I'd be a churl,
For am sure that she would melt
love that lady, If you please;
My heart is won as neer before;'
But it's a hopeless case, for she's

A womans watch is always = half
hour too fast or a half hour too slow
and the woman never knows which.
In order to be perfectly sure she
goes out and looks at the sun, but
If the sun isn't shining she takes
the half hour too fast and the half
hour too slow, adds them, multiplles
by three. subtracts seven and di-
vides by fourteen, then counts the
number of buttons on her husbands
vest and multiplies the total by that
and she will have the time pretty
close. A woman's method of telling
time by her own watch is one of
the great mysteries and everyone has
a different method.
A woman doesn't care about the
works in a watch just so long as it
has got cute monogram on the
case and diamond or two. The
works might Just as well not be
there. There have been numerous in
stances where women have taken the
works out of their watches and used
the cases to carry toilet powder, locks
of hair and sweethearts' photographs.
1t is the case that counts and the
works have nothing to do with the
case. Some day perhaps some genius
will invent wonan's watch that
will keep time correctly, but they
will never be popular with women.
The average woman would rather
guess at it. Then II she finds she Is
right she can glory in it and IL she
Is wrong she can change her guess.
Women's watches are good deal
like women themselves. You can
never tell what they are going to do
next.

People
Ros trun
oriticipes civil service Laws.


To the Editor of the Evening Star:
sir-In reading your Trenton corre-
spondent's notice of the fifth annual
report of the Civil Service Commits
sion, recently submitted to the gov
ernor, my attention was attracted to
the commissions comment on the law
introduced without any Initiative
action on it's part, which placed the
assistant commissioner of labor and
the entire force of deputy factory in
spectors under the full protection OF
the civil service law. This neat
specimen of Joker" legislation passed
at the last session should be looked
into. Taking the present assistant
commissioner out of the non-competi-
tive class in which all other deputies
and first assistants are included
under the terms of the civil service
law seems to be very clear case OF
special legislation. and should be
looked into by the Legislature. IL
might be well, also, to look into the
amendment to the factory law passed
last year, and have someone con-
ccrned explain why the qualifications
for assistant commissioner were
changed. The law as 1t stood pro-
vided that this official should be
trained and experienced machinlst,
but the amendment alters this to read
that he shall be either an architect
or a mechanic. This latter term is
very elastic one, and would admit
barber or tailor to position which
undoubtedly should be filled, as the
law provided it should be, by man
thoroughly acquainted with ma
chinery. If this change of qualifiea-
tions was not to cover up a success
sion of illegal appointments to the
office. there is no such thing as under
standing why it was made

MUSHROOMS.

There are several thousand differ
ent ways to tell a mushroom from its
poisonous cousin. the toadstool. Every
collector of mushrooms has differ
emit way of distinguishing them. But
there is only one sure way, so far
as the novicesis concerned, and that
is to eat It. II he lives 1t Is mush-
room, and if he dies it is a toad
stool. The trouble is that too many
persons are using this infallible test.
Inasmuch as about half of them are
Republicans and half Democrats it
has not yet affected the political
situation to any extent, although it
has had considerable effect upon
the vital statistics.
