IT'S A GAY OLD WORLD.

IT'S gay old world when you're CAV.
And a glad old world when you're glad
But whether you play
Or go toiIing away
It's sad old world when you're sad
IT'S grand old world if you're great,
And mean old world if you're small;
It's a world full of hate
For the foolish who pirate
Of the uselessness of it all
IT'S a beautiful world to see.
Or it's dismal in every zone
The thing it must be
In its gloom or its Elee
Depends on yourself alone.

And for his country fight.

And dreamed of them by night.
One day he spied a cherry tree
OF rare and costly brand
Iwas February Twenty-Five
Fred smiled for i'm his hand

Cut down that tree, then say, Papa,

Chop chip, chip chop, the hatchet few.

Until he felled il to the ground.
A conquering warrior he.
Just then a ste@n parental hand
Descended with a smack
sad to relate, the battle scars
Still linger on Freds back.

1t is inconceivabe in this day OF
general intelligence that any family
would be without a simple remedy
FOR the minor ills of life, for oft \
by giving such remedy in time Il
serious disease can be frustrated aLG
a life saved.
For example, if at the first sign
of cold simple laXative-toni like
DIR. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin were
given the beginning of a serious lung
affection or of a typhoid fever might
be avoided. And also in headaches,
nervousness, etc, small dose of this
remedy would relieve the congestion
and replace distress with comfort.
Mothers give it to tiny infants and
little children, and grown people take
it with equally good effect.

would force legislation to suit his own ambi-
tions and political desires,
With the departure of Wilson the question
arises, what will take place in the Legislature
during the closing days of the session. 1t is
well known that many of the old time bosses,
who have been routed by the governor, have
been simply laying back waiting for the time
when he has gone. 1t is believed that they will
then once more descend upon the state capital
and endeavor to regain their lost control. The
people then will be able to realize how sincere
are those legislators who have been proclaim
ing their great friendliness to Wilson since he
has been governor
The governor policies are well known and
if the men at Trenton prove true they will
continue to carry out these policies and place
on the statute books still more progressive
laws known to be favored by Governor Will
son. If they have merely been playing poll
tics and trimming with Wilson because he has
been in power, they will not be long lining up
with the reactionaries.
The next few weeks of the legislature will
bring the members of both houses out in their
true color.

HONOR COMES TO PERTH AMBoY.

Another Perth Amboy man has been elect
ed to state position of honor and trust. At
a meeting of the State Association of Fire
Insurance Agents, held at Paterson recently,
Fred j. Cox, member of the firm of Boynton
Brothers and Company, of this city, was
elected secretary and treasurer. In the in
surance world this is recognized as a most
important post, and the fact that the honor
has come to this city speaks well for Perth
Amboy and again demonstrates the fact that
we have men here capable of holding their
own with the leaders in every branch of IN
dustry and business.
This is another way of talking Perth Am
boy. 1t should be matter of pride to every
citizen that local firm has been thus recog-
nized. Mr.. Cox has proven himself fully
capable of holding the position to which he
has been elected and we are sure that he Will
bring credit to the city as well as to his
business
Talking Perth Amboy has become habit
with great many people since the EVEN
ING NEWS started the slogan and there is
no better way of doing it than to have our

Those who know Mr.. Cox are confident
he will give a good account of himself. We
