HE CARRIED AN UMBRELLA.

A dear old lady who was very so"
In her prejudices was asked just why
she didn't like certain man. She had
no particular reason that she could
think of at the instant, but she had been
SO emphatic in her expression of dis
like that she knew she would have to
find some eXcuse-at once. Just at that
moment she happened to glance out OF
the window and saw him passing by.
He carried a neatly rolled umbrella
though it hardly threatened rain.
Quick as a flash she answered her
questioner. He carries an umbrella
whether it's raining or not-he is a
'softie.'"
But" said her friend, also looking
out of the window, here comes your
son William, and he is carrying an UNI
brella"
This did not stump the old lady. But
that's another matter-I don't like him
anyhow-and besides, it all depends on
who carries the umbrella" she replied
triumphantly.
That is the position some people have
taken regarding that wholesome and
refreshing beverage Coca-Cola. They
have said a good many unkind things
it proved to them that their tales were
not true.
Finally they seized upon the fact that
Coca,Cola gets much of its refreshing
righteousness from the small bit of caf-
feline that it contains. They looked upon
that as a splendid argument against it.
Then, like the old lady who was remind
ed of son William, they were reminded
that it is the caffeine in their favorite
beverages, tea and coffee, (eveu more
than in Coca-Cola) that gives them
their refreshing and sustaining quail
ties.
But does that stop their criticism of
Coca-Cola for containing caffeine? No
their answer is similar to the old
lady's-they say but that's another
matter'-what they mean is Being
prejudiced against Coca-Cola and lik-
ing tea or coffee, 1t all depends on
what carries the caffeine
We think the joke is on them--for
caffeine is caffeine, and il it is not
harmful in one it can't be harmful in
another We all know that it is not
harmful in tea or coffee-that it is
really helpful in whatever it is-this
| is bound to include Coca-Cola.
Of course, the truth is, that having
Started an attack on false premises and
having had what they thought were
good reasons for criticism proved to
be no reasons at all, they are grasping
at an excuse which does not exist, to
explain prejudice. So you see, after
all, it all depends on who carries the
umbrella to people who are determined
TO be unfair. Let us be fair.-Adv.

holds that sensus taken under the
provisions of Chapter 257, Laws of
1913, which was intended to fix
population of cities for the purpose
OF fixing the number of saloons which
might be licensed, may not be used
TO fix salaries of city officials which
are based upon population, whether
the new figures might either show
that the officials are entitled to an
increase or that they should receive
decreased salaries.
He also holds on the road law that
where voters of a road district vote
to work out their road tax instead
of paying it in cash, receipts for road
work cannot be accepted by the
county treasurer in lieu of road tax
es. That the only way to get credit
for such work is through the town
ships allowing the legal time amount
of twenty cents per hour far man
or forty cents per hour for man and
! team, and issue warrants for the
same. on which the worker can Sc
cure the cash if he desires, or turn
the same in on payment of taxes.
He holds that members of city

led to any additional compensation
to that of their regular salaries for

that is part of their regular official
