April was called by the an

This was because it typitied both
the beauty of Venus, for whom
it VAS named, and her philosophy
Of the uses Of beauty. Venus
was the most beautiful creature
who ever lived. She was the
Lillian Russell Of mythology.
Every body wanted to marry her
and speculation as to her choice
was as great as that of Alice
Roosevelt:s. She knocked the
wind ouo of everybody by marry
ing Vulcan, who did general
vulcanizlng and blacksmithing
business. and was about the age
Of Secretary McAdoo. He was
50 ugly that people thronged his
shop 10 trade, just as we go to
see EDDY Foy. 1t had been SUP
posed that Venus would marry
apollo Or some other ravishirg
male beauty, bat she took Vul-
can ana held the soldering iron
in the shop for him when the au-
tOmobiie season was or. She
explained that she considered if
the duty OF every beautiful wom-
an to marry an ugly man. ard
asked how else the average Of
beauty was to be raised. No
body could say, and from that
day until this beautiful women
have married ugly men. Thus
we have in April the loveiiness OF
Venus and the thunderbolts nf
Vulcan. a com bination which
meant more to tie anclents than
even the flowers Of May or the
charms Of June. --Ex.

was a good deal like q kick
against getting something for
nothing. In this county the
farmer has been as much a tax
dodger as his town brother. His
land in the past ten or fifteen
years has doubled in value, like
wise have his horses, his cattle
and his hogs. The product of his
soil aud labor he has been selling
to town forks at prices that have
multiplied, but little of this in
creased valuation has found it's
way on the assessors books
The expenses of the county have
grown largely during the same
period. Every person who rem.
derS the county a service has to
add to his price because of the
general advance in the cost of
all th:u,:i. But our farmer
friend Is prone TO believe that
this rise in public expenditures
is due to extravaganza and lax
ness of the public officials. MOI
one is taking from the county
treasury any more than his just
dues, which, in most instances,
are fixed by law. The county is
heavily in debt not because of |
any fault but that the people |
nave not been supplying money
We have now reached
to point where we must dig
down and make up the deficit.
This is as much the farmers
duty as it is the duty of his town
brother.

Wants EN- Fierce.

George D. Reynolds, Presiding JUS
tice OF the st. Louis Court of Appeals,
has addressed a letter to the State Cap
itol Commissioners, in which he asks
that some changes be made in the
State coat-of-arms before the dedica-
ton OF the new State Capitol.
Judge Reynolds objects to the two
bears on the great seal of the State.
They appear tame, whereas, in his
opinion, they should appear ferocious.
He says the idea OF placing two bears
upon the seal undoubtedly came from
incidents connected with the Lewis
and Clark expedition, and these had
to do with grizzly bears, not black
bears.

Law is Puzzling Judges.

lhe question Of dealing with
delinquent ci ii,.rcn in counties
with less than $4,000 population
IS disturbing the judges, in whom
the power was lodged by the
Forty-seyenth General Assem-
bly,. Two circuit judges have
held this statute unconstitution-
al, and the cases have been ap-
pealed to the Supreme Court.
One case was appealed from Cal
laway County, where Judge Da.
vld II. Harris held the law in
valid.
Judge John E. Garman of the
Probate Court of this county, had
two delinquent boys before
him. He did not know what
to do with them in view of the
uncertainty about the validity Of
the law.
The law gives the Probate
Court in counties with less than
$4,000 population jurisdiction
over delinquent and neglected
children under II years of age.
These courts are given power to
find homes, for such children and
to look generally after their af-
fairs. as to the juvenile courts in
counties having more than 5O,O,NI
people.

A Horrible Mess.

Congressman Fitzgerald Of
New York, one of the leading
Democratic members of the
House, took the floor last Friday
for an Easter confession and
spoke AZ follows: In two
months or so shall be called
upon to review the record the
Democratic House will have
made in the expenditure of pub
lie money. Whenever l think of
the horrible mess that l shall be
called upon to present to the
country on behalf of the Demo
cratic party / feel like quitting
my post. Hook upon Democrats
here who seem to think it a huge
joke not to obey their party
platform pledges in this regard,
and who strive to make ridicu-
lous the efforts of members of
the party who are attempting to
uphold the platform.
For years we charged the
Republicans with gross extrava-
gance in expending public funds.
J believed those charges to be
true. believed that if my par
ty were placed in power we
would, by our conduct, prove
that those charges were true.
We are EMIT ed to the support of
Democrats here in our efforts to
establish the truth of our con.
tentiou> We have not received
that support, On the contrary,
we have piled up appropriations,
u etji the Democratic party has
become the laughing stock of the
appeal to you now
before we ha>"> gone beyond re-
call to stop these Improper and
and improvident apprC. rCef'a''ots'
or at least to have the couras ~
stand up here on the floor and
assert that the party pledges
were not made in good faith and
are not to be carried out.
We are facing a very perilous
from the standpoint of
the Democratic party. 1 would
not speak if l did not hope to
awaken Democrats to the seri-
BUSINESS of the situation. If we
are not more careful we will
make a record in this house not |
only to invite, but to deserve
severe censure.'
And then the house went right |

Democrats will spend all the
they can while they can,
