Free Weather
By Walt Mason

The cost of living is so great we all
lament together: we therefore should
appreciate the fact that there's free
weather. This is a blessing sweet and
rare, and all our bards should rhyme
it; the poorest man may have his share,
free gratis, of the climate He basks
in weather rich and ripe-what luxury
IS sweeter? No trust can pump it
through a pipe or run it through
meter. And vet, alas, this precious boon
we do not rightly cherish; in March,
December, August, June, we're using
words nightmarish, abusing everything
that's sent, the rain, the drouth, the
blizzard; we voice all kinds of diseon-
tent, from a clear through to lizard.
We ought to cry (un0Tateful set!)
when down our whiskers trickle the
large and briny drops of sweat: st
doesn't cost a nickel" We ought to CRY
when comes the sleet, when raging
floods are frothing, when we have
frozen ears and feet: "We're getting
this for nothingl" So let us strive to
mend our ways and show we're long
en- merit; and if they ship us beastly
DAYS, why, We'll Just grin and bear it.

The Currency Question
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author of at Good Old SIWash-7

IT is now the custom at every session
of congress to consider the Currency
- Question.
1t has taken Congress a long time to
get up to date in this matter. Every
one else has been considering it from
childhood up.
This year congress is to pass a new
currency law and every good citizen
should become familiar at once with the
questions at issue.
The principal currency question at
present and also in the past and prob
ably in the future is the following:
"Why IS currency so scarce when We
need it,"
When the patriotic citizen has unused
over this question until the answer
seems indisputable he should proceed
upon the following inquiries:
SHOULD our currency be made elastic
or self-prOpaOating like the pOtatO!"
SHOULD the dollar bill in these times
Of high living be made large enough to
be used as a blanket %
Is it economically wiser to ship gold

Dear Miss Fairfax:
Four months ago I accidentally be-
came acquainted with a young man,
one or two years my senior, with
whom / Immediately fell in love. On
another occasion I again met him ac-
cidentally on the street and we took q
walk, on which occasion he was very
attentive to me. Since then he has as
sumed a very cold attitude toward me.
His religion is different from mine.
Do you think that is the reason2 VIII
you kindly advise me as to what course
TO pursue, as am madly in love with
him2 F. O.
Your acquaintance with him is lin
tied to two walks on the streets, and
you really know nothing Of him. To
give your love so desperately on such
slight pretext indicates dangerous lack
OF self control
1 am quite sure the question OF re-
ligiOn does not intrude- He simply
does not love you. He does not know
you well enough I want you to love
and be loved. but insist for your own
sake that SOu exercise some restraint

Mr.. Barnes was right in arguing strongly
for such n convention.
SOUTHERN REPRESENTATIONS.
From The Boston Herald.
Southern delegates in the Republican
conventions have no party behind them.
They represent simply a skeleton orgahi-

give the Republican party no support In
the Electoral College. They contribute
nothing to its sanity or it's success.
REPRESENTATIVES, AND REUNION.
From The Buffalo Express.
But the party will be reformed anu the
party will be reu1ted. despite the back
firing OF these rival sets OF politicians
The Republican party may wait TO See
how far the National Committee is III

doing the work itself. or il may get to-
gether without the sanction OF the Ma
tlonal Committee. IL the plan proposed
by the committee is not satisfactory TO
