 year, With glowing beams of light and heat } that crown
 The earthss fruition with their plen-

 pitying rays: Tn vain it's many millions, po1yg1ot. Sigh for the coolness of dim, Ieafy
 ways. On mountain, or on shore of sandy
 beach,
 Or on the sea, with sails of winged The pleasure-seekers throng and strive to reach surcease of heat and care by sum

 And cooling dews at morn the meadows gem. Forth to his 1abors goes the farmer For ripening harvests wait the reap er's whirr And slow before the mowers whetted scytE1e soothing slxirr. At noon beneath the shade of leafy [ elm

WRITES HER LETTER
 WITH LEADPENCIL
Dear Miss Libbey:-

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 am a young man of 26, in good po- sition. Recently I met a young girl who interested me very much. She went off on a months visit to her aunt in another town. I asked her to cor respond with me in the meantime. I wrote her a, nice letter and received in reply a letter written with lead pen cil. considered that a girl who would write with pencil couldn't be much; in fact, that disgusted me so that never finished reading it. Nor could I bring myself to write me again, al- though she has written me since twice. with pencil on each ocasion. Am I not Justified in paying nos attention, letting her find out the reason the best way she can? have asked the opin- ion of several of my young men friends on the subject and they de- clare unanimously that it is little short of an iusuIt for a young girl,

ANOTHER SWEETHEART
Dear Miss>Libbey:-

Dear MissLibbey:-
 have a sweetheart who says he loves me more than any other person, yet he has another girl and ave reason to believe he thinks. more of her than of me. I cannot understand him. Will you please advise me in re- gard to him?
 MISS L. s. A girl is entitled to the whole heart of the man to whom he gives her love. Half g. heart is worse than none a all. Be either everything or nothing to him. Ask him firmly to choose between the other girl and yourself. A fickle lover makes 8 faith less husband.

FOUR GIRLS LOVE HIM

Dear Miss Ldbbey:-
 We are four young girls, deeply in terested in a nice young man, who seems to have no choice among us. How can we help him decide which stands the best chance of winning him?
 EF E. The, young man is simply courteous to four pleasing girls but not in love with any one of the quartet. If other young men were to call on you, escort you to places of amusement, the young man in question would make a quick choice or withdraw gracefully from the contest

fellows Their ability to make friends so widely and land these positions shows that they have capacity. and they may perform their duties ef- fcient1y.
 The objection is, that the politician type of public official can usually be hired for a very moderate pr1ces All over the country men of this type are drawing salaries of $3s00o to $5.- 900, who would have Jumped at sal aries Of $L500 to $S,500.
 No matter how well meaning and how capable an official of the political type may be, it is not the best school in which to train men for business po- sitions The successful politician has played the game too long ito be able to drop it. He is apt to have too many friends. This question of salar- ies is a two-sided one. Advances in Bay need to be carefully considered to see whether they are going to land a really superior type of man

The Killed And Wounded.

In the casualties of the war in Eu-
rope the proportion of the killed in
action is extraordinarily large. This
fact appears in the figures of each
of the combatants, regardless of mere
estimates, which can usually be dis
missed as exaggerations or under
statements. An official showing
from the French Relief Society places
the number of French soldiers killed
at 100000 and the wounded at 700,-
900 with 100000 captured or miss
ing. In former great wars the ratio
of killed was about one to five among
those struck by bullets or other mis-
siles. Now the ratio is little more
than one to two, a remarkable in
crease Great Britain is reported to
have had $1,000 killed, 10000
wounded; Russia, $4,000 to 1, esq.,
900, and Germany $4,000 killed,
$4,000 wounded. Turkeys casu-
alties are given as $4,000 killed, 90
900 wounded. Austria's are footed
up as $4,000 to 711,00O, and Ser
Was 64,0O to 10000. Belgium has
lost $1,000 killed to 100000 wound
ed. No return has been made from
the Italian army. The grand total
to June / is put at 2,173,0OO killed
and 4,SO3,0OO wounded. a proper
tion of more than one to two.
So far as many have been killed in
European struggle as were enlisted
in the Union army in the American
civil war In the latter conflict, by
the adjutant generals figures, 67,-
05S Union soldiers were killed in ac-
tion, 43,012 died of wounds, and 40,-
154 in prisons and from accidents.
At Gettysburg 5000 Enien soldiers
were killed and a. 97 wound ed, and
at Chickamauga 1856 were killed to
9,746 wounded. The number of Union
soldiers who died from disease dr-
ing the war was 190120, or more
| imam tWfSc DIS manly 90 "SAS hiiiSu VI
MORALLY wounded in battle. How
many the European armies have lost
from disease has not been stated, but
the winter campaign IN trenches must
have been extremely costly in human
life.
The range of arms in the present
war, the number of wounds in the
head and intense artillery fire, to
say nothing of poisonous shells, are
responsible for the augmentation OF
the number of soldiers killed in all
the armies. In naval action also
the mortality has gone far beyond
any former record. A growth in the
desire for peace cannot be far away.

II. How proud am of this county
unit baby" But gentlemen, he is on
ly stepfather to the county unit
baby, and am afraid that some night
he may roll over on 1t and mash the
county unit baby.
When I hear that Mr.. Stanley is for
the county unit bapy. 1t reminds me
of what heard about the Governor
OF South Carolina. He was about TO
make a speech, and he called in his
colored man, Silas, and he said: 'Silas
i am going to make a speech in the
courthouse this afternoon, and, Silas,
IL is very important to have the APP
plause and the laughter at the right
time, and to have them come in quick
and to have no mistakes made. Silas
I want you to lead in that, and ]
want to give you the signal, by which
you are to start the applause and the
laughter quick and strong, and get
all of the people to join with you.
Now, whenever you see me take a
glass of water and take a sip, want
you to applaud loud and strong and
quick, and whenever you see me take
out my handkerchief and mop my
brow, want you to laugh" And ST.
las says: Boss, you had better shift
them signals, for just as sure as !
see you take dring out of a glass of
water. Boss, am jess bound to
laugh"
Gentlemen, whenever I see Mr..
Stanley drinking a glass of pure wa
ter and saying he is for the county
unit, 81 am jess bound to laff."

he IS HARD
ON WILSON
But Not Half So Hard on Wilson
as Wilson Has Been on
the Country.

Some of you Democrats may think
The Rascal Whipper is too hard on
Wilson, but you should remember
that we have not been half so hard
on Wilson as Wilson has been on us.
Open your eyes, and look at things
as they are today. Everything stag
nant everywhere you go, and yet
even two years ago, under the G. o.
p. rule everything was prosperous.
Even you Democrats declared then
that prosperity was so great that
the Dem party could not stop it, even
If it tried. But you see now. The
only change in Government that
brought about this condition was
changing to the Wilson administra-
ton.
Wilson's administration has been
hard on us, and you know it. Every
time we lick war" revenue stamp
we remember that 1t is to help pay
for a Free-Trade Democratic deficit.
Every time we hear a lumberman
complain of low price of lumber we
know IL is due to putting lumber on
the Free List. Every time we hear
a merchant complain of poor business
we think of Woodrow. Yes, we
think often of Woodrow. Every
time we read of bushes failure
we think of Woodrow. Every time
we hear of high-priced groceries or
low-priced wages we think of the
same Wonder-W Working Woodrow, be-
cause, b'gosh he promised to improve
both conditions and didn't. Every
time we hear of times being hard and
money being tight, we think Of Wood
row, for he promised, through his
glorious banking plan, to make mon
ey plentiful for the working man.
The Rascal Whipper has nothing
personal against Woowrow Wilson or
the Democratic party. But facts
are facts, and the truth is the Dem.
pidu has iifcu a6h. iCSs " booh
his been hard on us, but he has been
perfectly impartial about it-he has
hit you Democrats as hard as us, If
you'd only own it. We sometimes
wish that you fellows who pretend to
be so dodgasted fond of Free-Trade
theories could have these Democrat
ic times all to yourselves. There
would be somethink fair about that.
For those who like that sort of
thing it is just the sort of thing they
would like. But for the Rascal Whip
per, give us G. o. P. times every day
in the year and you fellows could
take your rag-tag, low wage, soup
kitchen prosperity and use it to your
hearts desire.-The Rascal Whip

Stanley and County Emit.

In his speech at Louisville last
Friday night Edward McDermott
made the following caustic reference
to the position of Mr.. Stanley on the
County Unit Question::
"Well, there is Mr.. Stanley, there
is his attitude. In 1911, when we
were nominated in July for the pri-
mary of 1911 all the candidates on
the ticket, and a number Of the Dem
ocratic committee, met down at the
Louisville Hotel one night, just one
night before the Democratic conven-
ton was to meet to form the plat
form. and Mr.. Stanley came before
us; he made substantially this
speech to us: Gentlemen, hear that
you are considering recommending
for the Democratic platform the
county unit. l want to say to you
that am opposed to the couaty unit.
I have always been opposed to the
county unit. come from a country
where my people know that i have
always been opposed to it. l come
from a country as dry as a powder
horn. and yet they have elected me
for Congress. II you put the coun-
ty unit in the platform you will COM
NIT a blunder. and you will most
certainly go down in defeat
That is what he thought of the
county unit in 1911, after he heard
Mr.. McChesney's county unit baby
had been laid on somebody else's
doorstep. Mr.. Stanley said; Where
is that baby? Where is the found
ling?"
In 1911 he said the county unit
baby was red headed, cross-eyed and
bow-legged. but now he says: Take
me to the county unit baby. want
70 take It to my bosom and suckie
