VOTES FOB MEN.

Travelling statesmen are making Wig
orous protests against their practical
disfranchisement because of registra-
ton laws. One of their spokesmen
claims that. though the salesman is Of
great Importance to the commercial
life of the country. he is considered
legitimate prey by railroads, hotels
and various public corporations be-
cause he is without representation In
the making of the laws affecting him.
He says 1t Is because the statesmen
have no vote and are therefore no
use to the men who thrive on votes
and through them on politics. "a
congressman or senator says Mr..
Meyer. has no interest in US for the
same reason, for what good is a man
without vote to him." Women suf-
fragists are taking lively interest in
the discussion az they have a deep
sympathy for all disfranchised classes.

One of the interesting facts in con.
nection with the higher cost of living
in Germany, is the increased consump-
ton Of dog meat as food. Every year
since 1907 has shown q gain, but in
1912 the number of these animals
slaughtered under official inspection
was S,132 and in 1911 only 6.553. Many
more were killed by private individ-
uals for consumption. Saxony and
Prussia are the chief centers of dog
slaughtering. Separate shops are
maintained for the sale OF dog and
horse meat, and the customer is well
informed In regard to what he is pur-
chasing.

THE SONG OF LOVE.

THE SONG OF LOVE.
The first epistle of St Paul to the
Corinthians, chapter kill.
Though l speak with the tongues OF
men and angels.
Hold / the keys of mystery and
knowledge,
Have l not love, though / could move
the mountains
Yet am l nothing.
: Yea, though to feed the poor l give
my riches,
! Yield up my body to the flame Of
martyrs,
Loveless, am an empty sound and
brazen,
A smitten cymbal.
i Love is long suffering and dwells with
kindness,
Envieth not, nor vaunteth her of
nothing,
Knoweth not vanity nor pride up
lifted,
For she is lowly.
Love draweth back, nor doth behave
unseemly,
Seeketh not self but toileth for an
other,
Love Is not easily provoked to anger.
Thinketh no evil.
Love beareth all nor faints beneath
the burden,
Believeth all. her faith is like pillar.
Hopeth-for faith and hope are but
her daughters,
Endureth all things.
Love faileth not, though dust are
tongues and learning,
Love is the vision that surpasseth
knowledge,
Love is the crown, when we are
freed from fetters
And done with blindness
For though we walk now all uncom-
pretending,
See as through mist or through glass
beclouded,
Then shall we know as we are known
OF heaven,
And of the Father.
And here abtdeth for our help and
healing
Faith, hope and love, the angels of
the highway,
Two are the wings of time, one flames
eternal,
Love everlasting.

AGRICULTURAL EDUCATION.

agriculture, according to f. B. jerks
in his annual review OF agricultural
instruction for the u. s. bureau of
education. He says that each year
the chautauqua movement becomes
more decided factor in the education
of the farmer The programs, which
in the early history Of the movement
consisted principally of Bible study
and recreation, have ibeen consider
ably broadened, and special features
dealing with farm life are becoming
more popular and more frequent. It
is now a common occurrence to find
these programs offering courses In
stock judging, poultry raising, soils,
seed testing, household economy, etc.
Scores of new assemblies are organ-
lied every year, and the favorite field

BUSY Times.


Every organization in the city as
well as Keokuk generally is feeling
the effect of homecoming and the
great celebration. The Office force OF
the Y. NJ. C. A. has been kept strenr-
ously busy all day extending courte-
sizes to the many out-of-town visitors
there as well as attending to their
daily routine duties.
A bunch OF young fellows from Mus
oatine came in on their wheels this
morning and are anxiously enjoying
themselves in seeing the attractive
sights offered by Keokuk- They will
remain a couple of days.
Another bunch of about eight are
here from Moline arriving later and
were soon lost in the crowd Of sight
seeers.
With commendable foresight the Y.
NJ. C. A. to meet any emergency that
might arise provided fifty cots for any
out-of-town people that might find It
difficult to find a lodging place. Tho
city was filing up rapidly and these
cots will no doubt prove great re-
lief to many visitors.
Besides the two parties named
above from Muscatine and Moline,
there are youthful parties here who
have called at the Y. NJ. G. A. building
from points along the river reaching
from Quincy to Rock Island and still
more are expected.
