ECTHAD a scrap with the white serv-
ant girl this morning" said the
Manicure Lady. u try to be nice
and calm, usually, George, but that new
servant Of mine has sure got my goat.
I can't see why mother keeps her but
mother IS getting along in years. and I

said the Manicure Lady Imagine il.
George, a intelligent servant. when
she don't know how to fry eggs with

cook wet thing like a egg without
burning it amt got no intellect. and
that's all there Is to that argument.

10 correct me on my English. l was
telling mother that I had took car
ride the other night. and the servant
up and says, You mustn't say you have
took a car rid" you should say YOU have
taken car ride ! tried TO tell the
poor simp that l had took the ride.
and that there was no taken about il.
but she got thick and said something
about my early education, and / Fixes
her then with one Of my regal stares

He called his children together and

KNOCKERS BUSY

No, my friend, it isn't that we do
not have knockers in Deming, but
simply that the knockers work more
in secret here than elsewhere. In the
Mimbres Valley il is crime equal
to horse stealing, yet the horse
thieves now and then make their ap-
pearance. When the Miesse inter
ests began development here the
knockers Immediately got busy and,
although Mr.. Miesse has sold every
prospect that he has brought to the
valley, he has found from time 10
time that some of our citizens have
made determined efforts Ia belittle
the splendid development which he is
carrying on, and which is benefitiing
every legitimate interest of this see

WHERE TT HURTS.

The failure to declare a dividend on the New Haven stock this month hurts not only private individuals but many public institutions as well, colleges and hospitals and various charitable foundations, whose endowment has been placed in securities which were considered f'gflt-edged.''
 Yale university has in it's treasury 2966 shares of New Haven which are now non-productive. Harvard uni versity has 871 shares of New Haven in it's various endowment funds: Will Hams college has 60 shares.
 Here is a, total of 3,S98 shares on which $31,184 in dividends was paid last year. Dartmouth, Radcliffe, Col by and Bates are not New Haven shareholders. Bowdoin holds no New Haven stock, but has $1O,0OO of the convertible 6's of 1948.-Boston Ad- Vertiser.

YOUNG MEN AT THE FRONT.
In the Cabinet and in Both Branches
 of Congress.

President Wilson's is an admihistra- ton of young men. The president is himself the oldest man in it, being ', and the next oldest is Secretary Red field, who is 55. The other members of the cabinet were born between 1880 and 1866 and, therefore, hover around the half-century mark.
 All told, the government is younger than it used to be. The House of Representative looks filled by ener- getic young fellows. There are no men there of doddering old age. The country is voting for young men. Still IL is a poor rule that has no exception, and one can admire the hoary hair of Gen. Sherwood of Ohio, dem ocrat, who is 78 years old, and quite the father of the House. He was in Congress for a term or two soon after the civil war and has come back quite live '-oId critter."
 But there is only one Sherwood. The Senate, too, has become quite young. One looks in vain or.yenerab1es,sIike ke CulIom and Hale and Frye, and so on- The Senate no longer looks like an old mans. home, with men @feebly coming and going, exciting pity in the galleries. .
 It is hard to believe that Senator Lodge is now one of the venerables of the body, but he is, although only 68 years old. He to-day. ranks second
  There is. to be sure, Senator Stephen son of Wisconsin, well above 80, but he will soon retire; and Senator Gal finger of New Hampshire is 76 and may remain in the Senate to show how young a man can be at four score. Senator Root is 68> = -f.s55
 It is a wonderful change that has come over the Senate. Its generic term means old age, and the sending of young men to the body, therefore means a great deal and has made that body the radical wing of Congress. Only here may the people be thought making a, mistake in retiring men well on in years. The nation much needs the ripe wisdom and counsel of it's old men.
 The supreme court, too, is much younger than it used to be. Nener- abIes indeed once sat on! it. It was splendid to see their white locks. There is none such on the bench now. Still gray is the hair of Justice Holmes of Massachusetts, who is Fl years old and the oldest member of the court
