which the Chicago newspapers are
unanimous.
They all favor swatting the fly:
Which is what the fly gets for being
e non-partisan and never advertising.
Those who believe in non-partisan-
ship owe vote of thanks to the Mil
waukee Socialists for stimulating
non-partisanship in that city.
One victory by Socialists in mu-
nicipal election drove all the Demo-
Gratis and Republicans into one party,
which calls itself non-partisan.
1t wasn't much of trick at that,
for there wasn't any real difference
between Democrats and Republicans.
The Marshall Field ads say: mo
effort will be spared to make the ser
vice in the new store exceed the high
standards hitherto attained"
That doesn't mean high standards
of wages or anything like that. Be
cause there amt no SIGH thing.
Wages still have to stand on their
tip-toes to peek over the bread line.
Here's one from Carson, Prize,
SCOTS ad: Mote the fabrics, note
the patterns, colors, style and last
ly tailoring Of that we are proud"
Wonder what wages they pay the
help that do the tailoring of which
they are proud?
Are they as proud of the wages
they pay as they are of the work they
get out Of the workers?
That boulevard link will cost over
$7,000,000, and about one-third of it
will come out of the pockets of tax
payers all over town.
1t would be interesting to know just
what benefit the small home-owners
get out of 1.-THE ones who don't own
autos.
But then Chicago is accustomed to
being taxed for the benefit of the loop

Strangers don't go down to see
Bubbly Creek, y'know.
Our political advice to Day Book
readers is to get all the information
then can and then vote as they darn
ed please.
Own yourselves. Control your own
votes. Do your own thinking and
your own voting.
lfyou like what you have been get
ting all your lives, hang onto one of
the other of the old parties-or wear
the collar of a boss.
The working class ought to know
exactly what to expect in politics.
But don't give the municipal judges
any more power than they have now,
unless you want human life made
more of tragic joke in Chicago than
it is now. $3.50
The more power you give to the
courts the more power you give to
newspaper bosses who want to con-
troll courts by brow-beating judges.
And mighty few courts know how
to use what power they have.
They are afraid of the newspapers,
because they think the newspapers
mould public opinion and control
votes.
Lillian Bell Bogue got a divorce
yesterday.
Lillian is one of those magazine
writer's who can tell any wife how to
get along with any husband.
The Ladies' Home Journal and the
Woman's Home Companion have
printed coolies of copy from Mrs.
Bogue on how to be happy though
married.

smash at theory.

Hold On

Hold on to your tongue when you
are just ready to swear, lie or speak
harshly or use an improper word
Hold on to your hand when you are
about to punch, strike, scratch, steal
or do any improper act.
Hold on to your foot when you are
on the point of kicking, running off
from study or pursuing the path Of
error, shame or crime.
Hold on to your temper when you
are angry, excited or imposed upon,
OF others are angry with you.
Hold on to your heart when evil
associates seek your company and in
vite you to join in their m:rth, games
and revelry.
Hold on to your good name, for it is
of more value than gold, high places
of fashionable attire
Hold on to the truth, for it will
serve you well and do you good
throughout eternity.
Hold on to virtue-it is above all
price to you in all times and places.
Hold on to your character for it is,
and ever will be your best wealth.

Impoverished nerves destroy many
people before their time. Often be-
fore a sufferer realizes what the
trouble is, he is on the verge of
complete nervous breakdown. 1t
is Of the utmost importance to keep
your nervous system in good con-
dition, as the nerves are the source
of all bodily power. Mrs. Rosa

ANNIVERSARIES
 OF RING BATTLES

1s1S-Tom Molfneaux, g Virginia negro, defeated Tom Cribb in 2S rounds at East Grinstead, Eng. By this victory MoIineaux was fairly en- titled to become the first rNal heavy weight champion of the world, but he was cheated out Of the honor. For 28 rounds he battered the English cham pion unmercifuIly. and at the begin ming of the 2Sth Cribb was fairly out of it, and unable to come to time. The referee, Sir Thomas Alp Rhys, begged the fallen gladiator to renew the struggle, for the glory of old England, but Cribb, with glazing eyes. could not answer the summons. Then the mob, wild with anger, began a dem onstration, and the Virginia black was falsely accused of having bullets in his gloves. The referee was intinii- dater into ordering the fight to pro ceed. Cribb having meanwhile recov- cred, while the negro, chilled by the cold rain which was falling waited with chattering teeth for the verdict which rightfully belonged to him. Tn the end the victory was awarded to Cribh. but all English sporting writ CTS are agreed that Molineaux was fairly entitled to the victory.

An Arnay,s Eyes.

When people read that armies are en- gaging each other at 2.o00 yards; dis tance they are apt to imagine that the eombatants can see each other. but as n matteT of fact they cannot. At that distance 1t Is impossible to distinguish between man and horse. and even at 1.20o yards. especially where there is any dust. 1t requires the best kind Of eyes to tell infantry from cavalry.
 At 900 yards the movements become clearer. although it is not until they get within 750 yards of each other that the heads of the columns can be made out with anything ike certainty.
 Infantry can be seen in the sunlight much more easily than cavalry or ar tillery. because less dust is raised. Be sides. infantry is distinguished by the glitter of the muskets. At 2,OOO yards. however. everything is unsatisfactory

Maol,ine oune.

In the Brftiah army the machine gun is the Maxim: the French use the Hotchkiss, or Puteaux; Austrians em- ploy the Schwarzlose and Germans the Maxim. In all cases machine guns are attached to the infantry forces. usually in the proportion of two guns per bat talion, or 1000 men.
 These guns Ire rife cartridges at fm- mense speed by mechanical means and usually the kick, or recoil. of the gun ia used for the purpose of reloading. It is interesting to note that in test forty two British first class shots engaged against machine gun. each firing at the same target for one minute; the gun discharged 22S rounds and made sixty nine hits; the forty-two marks men discharged 40S rounds and made saxty-two hitS.--Pe4rsOn's Weekly.

There is small reason to doubt that the proper development of tree crops would greatly enrich and cheapen the food supply of the American people and their domestic animals. The chief trouble seems to be that we have not thought about it. Most of the crop trees of value of Europe have been in- troduced into this country. such as the olive. fig. date. the acorn and cork oak. the walnut. pistache and almond Our native trees. such as the pecan. shag- bark. mulberry. honey locust. mesquite and persimmon, offer great promise if properly selected. propagated. irnprov- ed by plant breeding and tested by ex- pertinent. All this requires scientific work Now that we have spent quar- ter of century developing the equip ment for the promotion of agricultural science the time has probably come when attention can be turned in part from the herb of the field to the more productive tree that has long made the oriental garden so productive.1.
