Among the numerous upiift move
ments sprOuting in Washington is a
proposed constitutional amendment
barring the remarriage of the di-
vorced. A vote on the ratification of
such an amendment would be an in
teresting test of public sentiment on
married, for that is what it would
amount TO.

BRAIEYS POEM ETlN
THE HUMORIST.

/ serve the Lords of Laughter,
l serve the gods OF mirth,
I make the world a dafter
And vet a gladder earth:
When woes grow thick and thicker
And life seems inky black
BY magic Of a smoker
I drive the sorrows back.
serve the Lords OF Laughter
And. oh. I love TO wake
The roar that shakes the rafter
And makes the midriff quake:
I care not for the fiouting
OF bards who sheer at me
IF / can hear the shouting
OF great and gorgeous gleeI
oh, may the songs 1 sing you
Lift every heavy cloud.
And may / always bring you
Clean laughter, long and Loud
So when I pass hereafter
This truth the world may tell.
He served the Lords of Laughter
And always served them we'll"

All three were harnessed to the cart,
And pulled together all.
But though they pulled with all their

three times, and she gave the names OF
her former husbands - Aubrey, and
! Sir Alan de BuXhall. She gave the
names of the COuntess's children by
the earl, of her stepson, Alan de Bux
hall, and of the earl's brothers. The
earl himself she described as a cult
waited, talented man, and she related
some curious episodes in his career.
d ESIDES all this, she gave her own
- maiden name, de Mowbray, and
the name of the man she married
after Poynings death, Sir John
Worth; also the fact that she had
been expelled from court by Arnold,
one of the Lords Appellant.
! Mr.. Dickinson knew so little about
the reign of Richard ii that he could
not say whether or no there was an
Earl of Salisbury at that time. But,
rummaging through old chronicles,
charters, and peerages, he found that
almost every one of "BlanChe's" state
ments accorded with fact. Naturally
this interested and puzzled him. The
sensitive" whose veraCity he could
not doubt assured him that she had
never studied the period, and knew
nothing concerning it. And in any
case some of the facts given were not
such as even a historical student
would be likely to come across.
Blanche Poynings herself, for eX-
ample, was a quite unimportant per
son, only mentioned by name, by one
or two chrOniclers, as lady in atten-
dance on the queen. There seemed,
in short, no possible explanation of
the affair except by regarding it as
a veritable case of spirit communi-
cation"
But one afternoon, taking tea with
the sensitive" and her aunt, Mr..
Dickinson learned that they had
planchette in the house, and that she
could do automatic writing with it.
At his request it was brought out,
and he began to put questions to it.
These bore on the Blanche Poynings
messages, and drew out the uneX-
pected information that corrobora-
tion of them would be found in book
called Countess Maud" by Emily
Holt. So soon as planChette wrote
the name of this book, the sensitive"
exclaimed that she believed there was
novel with that title, and that she
had once read it. Her aunt confirmed
this. Neither of them, though, could
remember anything about its plot, not
even the period with which it dealt
nor whether it contained any mention
, of Blanche Poynings.
Following up the clew thus given to
him, Mr. Dickinson within few days
managed to procure copy of the book
in question, and discovered in it every
person and every fact, with a few
trifing exceptions, that had been
mentioned by the alleged spirit of
Blanche Poynings. Wishing then to
ascertain if possible just when the
sensitive" had read it, he caused her
to be hypnotized, and had the follow
ing interesting and curious dialogue
with her:
Can you see yourself young?"
"Yes."
Can you see your aunt reading a
book, Countess Maud'?"
yes"
what was it about?"

Countess of Salisbury"

Kindness Of the Boss.

Little Tommy, who was about knee
high to a half pint, was employed by a
busy broker. One afternoon the bro
ker was sitting at his desk trying to
collect his thoughts as well as some
coin when he suddenly looked up and
signaled Tommy to draw near.

down into his jeans, "here's fifty
cent chunk Of silver. Take it and hus-
tie of to some vaudeville show"

Liquor Trade In a panic.

The animal meeting of the National
Wholesale Liquor Dealers Association in
Washington, D. c., last week will not be
remembered as joyous occasion BY
those who attended the sessionss There
Is nothing hilarious in being present at
ones own funeral. 1t was not necessary
to bringlin seer or prophet to decipher
the handwriting on the wall. That hand
writing was SO plain that every liquor
dealer understood.
Reports showed the triumphant for
ward march of the temperance columns
everywhere. These dry victories, with
more in prospect and with national pro
hibition in sht, are reflected in bot
tomless stock market with prices down in
the subcellar.
The tenor of the convention was to the
effect that the end Of the liquor business
is near and the only thing to be done is
to arrange for the hest possible terms of
surrender.
The truth Is the liquor trade is In a
panic and is grasping at straws to save
itself. The people of the country are
aroused over the ruin wrought by drink
aud are against its manufacture aud sale
as they are against any other poison.--
