Jim Edie came up to dinner with
Dick last night, and MOllie, also, was
over, as Mother Waverly was invited
out to the home of an old friend for
the week end.
Dear old jim! He looked so sOr-
TOwful as he took both my hands in
his. my, Margie," he said, ''the
sight of you is good for my longing
eyesw
His warm clasp was so sympathetic
that my eyes filled with tears, in
which grief for my loss and appreci-
alton of his friendship mingled.

chievoUsly asked MOllie. you look
as though you wanted to-"
"Of course, 1 do!' answered Jim
valiantIy, but, don't,you know, Mol
lie, that usually when a man wants
to kiss a woman he hardly ever dares
and when he dares- well, he cares
very little about her"
"AIl right, Jim, I dare you to kiss
me-" laughed MOllie.
Jim shook his head with a grin. "Of
COURSE I am not teIlin' We, as Annie
would say, but some way in your
case either the spirit or the flesh is

Mollie, love me so dearly that they
were doing all this jollying to turn
my mind away from my sad thoughts
and I had to laugh as MOIlie wiped
her eyes, shifted and blew her nose

as if to herself: "Jilted and scoTned-I
cannot bear it and will not. TOmOr-

they saw a smile hover over my lips

suffered because of baby's death.
Some way l have never thought of
him except as my baby-mine to
love - mine for whom to grieve-
mine the joy of anticipation, and
mine the awful loss. Dick caught
my eyes and came over and kissed
me tenderly. He evidently read my
thought in my face.

not do that! A nice friend you are
to deliberately kiss the woman

to do So"
For heavens sake, Jim, if you
feel that way about it, kiss Margie
and get it out of your system" said
Dick.

that, my dear" I expostulated.

that after all that has been said of

persons are searched for Struggled

Heretofore there has been no run
ling Of the gauntlet. no scrutiny Of ere
dentials for men who have sought al
fliation with the Republican party.
Republication has been inclusive in
it's scope. The party has been big
enough 70 contain both Mr.. Taft and
Senator LaFollette, for example. There
have been, and are, certain essential
principles on which Republication Is
founded and TO which all Republicans
adhere. Orderly constitutional govern
menf. protection through tariffs 10
American labor and capital, sturdy de-
tense Of American rights, an adequate
and satisfactory currency system
these are the essentials Of Republican
fa;th since the days Of Fremont. Who
ever subseribes to these declarations
ard who evidences his faith by support
Of the Republican ticket is a Republi
can, nationally speaking. These things
win be found, not only in national Re
publican platforms but in state Repub-
hean platforms as well; while IN the
latter viii be many other things of To-
cal application which in no wise detraet
from the quality Of national Republi
eamism. For instance, a Republican la
Oregon will hold to many principles
tor 0regon-whieh a Republican in
PLode Island never has subscribed to.
Yet both are Republicans, as Mr.. Taft
will have to admit.
We DO not believe in any other test
for Republieanism. Especially we can
rot admit the right Of any one man
President, ex-President or any other
nan, or any group Of men, to say who
shall enter or re-enter the Republican
party or upon what terms. So far as
VIC are concerned any Progressive who
wishes to join the Republican party can
come in without the indignity of be-
ing frisked for concealed principles.
Is he a pFoteetionistf Does he believe
in a strong foreign policyi Does he
favor an adequate national defenses
Is he for legislative and administrative
s~anityf The man who supports these
principles is a Republican by all the
tests which anyone has the right to
impose. In no other way can RepublI-
eanism live and grow; in no other way
has Republication lived and grown.
The doors of the Republican party
swing inward and neither Mr.. Taft nor
any other man can close them or mar
row the entrance. Those Progressives
who have already come in have been
warmly welcomed. A like welcome
awaits the others who are on the way.

There is 4 time in the affairs OF word,
when the hitherto disreputable part of
speech is given the stamp OF respect
ability, when the bit Of slang becomes. n

In this way the language grows and Is
enriched. We have good. sound words
to-day that atty years ago were in poor
rcpute: in fact, We have many that were
wholly unknown in those days. And
nifty years from now, without doubt,
