POETRY
NOBODY KNOWS.

 Up and down throughout the land, The Bull Moose Chieftain goes; He shows his teeth and pulls his hair, His eyes bulge out with an awful
 glare.
 What for2 Nobody knows He rants and raves with all his mi dSnt. Acts like lion crazy to fight As over c land he goes: One day he's here, the next day he's He's apt to be most anywhere. What for? Nobody Knows. He curses you and he curses me If with him we don't agree;
 Mercy he never shows We must follow him or suffer the We all must honor his great nams.
 What for? Nobody knows. He's the only man who should crttfcase. All other men are filled with lies
 As he plainly shows. For seven years he bossed all men And what reforms did he give them?
 Nobody knows.
 As a hot air artist he takes the cake. He's a great muckraker without tn,

 As the saying goes. But what must be his knowledge o1

"uNDER COVER"
Coming to the Davis Next Monday Seat Sale Opens Tomorrow at 10 "a, m.

Under Cover, the great success un-
 be the attraction at the Davis theatre
 Monday evening, Oct. 18th. Under
 Cover Is a melodrama in four acts. It
 was written by Roi Cooper Megrue
 and produced by Selwyn & Go. at the
 Plymouth theatre, Boston on Christ
 success of the piece that it ran for
 thirty weeks in Boston and is now
 on tour for the first time.
 The first act of Under Cover takes
 place in the New York custom house
 and the remaining three in a home on
 beI1 notified by a secret agent in
 F/ts that a necklace valued at $250,-
 QUO has been purchased there and
 that probably an attempt will be made
 to evade paying duty on it. The pur- chaser takes passage on a ship with
 a well known family and is apparent
 ly very intimate with them. The cus-
 toms officials are reluctant to mo&e in the case until they have certain
 proof of the crime. On this same
 steamer is a girl who has become~Na a
 bridge victim and who has raised money to pay her debts by defraud- ing a jewelry insurance company. The secret service man used this as a club to force the girls elder sister to assist him as she is friend of the family with whom the suspect has been travelling. She finds the suspect is a man whom she met in Paris and whom she is very nearly in love with and who is in love with her. She be- lieves him innocent and endeavors to prove him so until she ofrners him and he calmly produces the necklace. Be- yond this it would not be fair to the playgoer to relate the story as it cul- inmates in 8 great surprise. Suffice to says that the story ends happily. Selwyn & Co. have selected with particular care the company which is to appear here in Under Cover. The play itself is the main attraction in this instance, but ensemble work on the part of the players makes it effec- tive and care has been taken to pro- vide this. The scenic production will be complehe in every detail.

ONE MAKES HIS OWN LIFE
To the Average Man, Conditions Are
Bad or Glad, as He Has
Carved Them.

A sad story comes with the tele-
graph news from Stockton about
discouraged railroad man who threw
himself in front of a freight train
and was crushed to death. He left
note reading: "What's the use?
Good night, you rotten old world!"
Now, that tragedy is very pathetic
and must touch profoundly every hu-
man heart. But what made the world
rotten to this poor man? The rot
tenness was in his life, not in the
world, and was put there by his own
acts. This is absolutely true, no
matter what the mans life may have
been. 1t is impossible he could have
been born into more unhappy circum-
stances than poor Heinrich Heine,
yet that German made himself an
immortal name by unremitting eff
fort, using all his gifts to the utmost
of their development. Every man
makes his life sound or rotten, sweet
or bitter, for himself, and the work
is not done by others.-Los Angeles
Times
The Newport plain talk. (Newport, Tenn.) 1909-1939, 1914-02-19
WORDS THAT REALLY SPEAK
Many Expressions In the Language
That Seem to Convey Instan-
taneous Meaning.

Bang--"a sudden noise like that
from a gun" is the definition given by
the dictionary. But the explanation
Is befogging and futile, for a bang"
is-well, what better describes it
than the simple word itself?
So many of our most expressive
words seem similarly to have sprung
from a desire to form with the lips a
sound mimicking the thing described.
Why waste words on definition of
the word Splash" for example? You
hear all the abrupt restless heaying
Of the waters in that one word.
And does even baby need to be
told what buzz" means when blue.
bottle is leading forlorn hope against
the pantry window?
"Tinkle," whistle" whine" "gur-
gle" "cackle," "icy"-these are only a
few of our other eloquently descrip-
tive words.
It is also extremely interesting to
note the sharp distinction drawn be-
tween the words of opposite meaning
so as to emphasize their difference in
sound-thus, brisk, lazy" Tor Slug
gish"); 'hot, ICY" down, up" "jol.
ly, miserable" and so on.

PEssIMIsT ON LOVE AND LIFE
Statssman Credited With Really Bril-
liant Though Most Unkind
Definition.

Philosophy in popular phraseology
IL one Of the greatest products OF
the cloakrooms in the capitol in
Washington. Senators and represen-
tatives, keen observes of human ma
ture and full of ideas, pull stuff that
makes the old German wizards sound
foolish and inane.
In the Democratic cloakroom OF
the house, not long ago, a statesman,
having discussed at length the tariff,
currency reform and the Central
American situation, announced,
kindly:
''Now, I'll tell you fellows the diff:
ference between life and love-"
Everybody Immediately expressed
eagerness to know the difference.
'Life," he said, sis just one fool
thing after another. Love is just
two fool things after each other. =

FIRST LuxuRIEs.

Primitive man boiled his water
with hot stones. That was not the
only use he made Of them-at any
rate If he was Scythian. The
Scythian practice described by Hero
dotus has been claimed by some as
the first recorded case of smoking.
Having spoken of kind of hemp
that grew in the country, Herodotus
proceeds: ''Now, the Scythians, TAX
ing the seed of this hemp, 60 into
their tents and then throw the seed
upon stones heated white hot. As it
is thrown on it is burnt into smoke,
producing SO much that no Greek
vapor bath could surpass it. And
the Scythians, delighting in it, bel
low. This takes the place of wash
ing for them" It seems as though
they had discovered the Turkish bath
and the cigarette.
