Resolved, That we publish our
position to the world, so that all may
know that Friendship, Love and
Truth are not mere unmeaning words
upon our lips, but the sincere desire
of our hearts.

CAN'T AFFORD 1T.

According to Commissioner John
"A. Cunningham there is not enough
money available in the present ap-
preparation to keep the Missouri
Building at the San Francisco fair
open. The Legislature is therefore,
requested to provide additional means.
Some question has been raised as to
just what the State ought to do about
the proposed celebration of Missouri
Day at San Francisco and from mo-
tives of economy, some of the men,
bers of the Legislature are not in
clined to authorize any large expendi-
ture for that purpose. Their position
is ineligible, but it will be difficult
to understand how anyone can con-
template situation in which Missou-
ri will be compelled to shut up shop
and let its investment at the Fair go
for naught. That would be the re-
verse of economical. State prestage
is an asset of value to us all. Mis-
souri, cannot afford the kind of ex-
travagance that would close the Mis-
souri, building, nor can it afford to
incur the reproaches that would be
heaped upon any State which set out
to participate in the Fair and backed
down rather than spend a few dol
lars. This would come with par
ticularly i'll grace from the State that
only few years ago, was appealing
to the Pacific Coast States for expen-
ditures for State buildings at the
Louisiana Purchase Exposition-es-
pecially in view Of the way in which
they responded to the call-St. Louis

GOES THROUGH THE MOTIONS
But Smokers Will Wonder How That
Tobaccoless Pipe Must Taste
to Him.

M. Maeterlinck is among those who
have freed themselves from the bond
age of tobacco by means of curious
artifice. According to his biographer,
M. Gerard Harry, without the help
of tobacco he seemed incapable Of re-
ceiving inspiration or crystallizing it
In words. If he has not overcome the
need, he has outflanked it. Smoking,
he noticed, had lost its virtue as
stimulant, and instead of rousing the
brain to activity, as at first, had come
to disturb its functions; SO now, in
lieu Of ordinary tobacco, he fills his
bowl with a denicotinized preparation,
tasteless indeed. but harmless. His
pipe is still always alight when the
pen is busy. but it is hardly more now
than mere subterfuge intended to
cheat and so satisfy an irresistible
mechanical craving. London Chron-
icle.
