To this cavalier treatment of the

condone whatever he wants to do, said
the distinguished East Indian.
DR.. krishna, dark, polished, and of
excellent diction, spoke with contempt
OF Americas degeneration to a mere
colony of England, gladly restoring the
yoke that Washington and other
heroes had cast off at great cost of
blood
ENGLAND says, I must control the
seas, and America says, yes, it is
right that you should and America
supports her. And yet, in 1872, your
country fought England for just the
reverse principle, There was a man,
by name George Washington, and you
call him the father of this country be-
cause he demanded and, somehow.

Send us no more missionaries of

proclaims Christ has not robbed
another nation of it's home. And you
thank God and Christ for each con-
quest that brings the light to heather
peoples. -.,.
"Who has made this war? It is the
Christian nations. Is that the light
that you would have us brought by
Christianity?
I'm India the English have brought

our people starving, and yet we must
support English bishops with hand

ton of $4,000 breach of promise suit
which she filed this week against
Charles H. Heller, president of the
North American Supply company,
general merchants at 61O3 South Hal

Mr.. Heller denies it all; she
simply did not wish to pay bill for
goods bought from his firm. Yes, he
did take her out in taxi-once. And
he did visit her at her home, 20 East
Forty-fourth street. But he never
proposed marriage.

Mrs. Lewis, who is a widow, filed
her suit in the Circuit court, through
Attorney George W. Ellis. Accom-
panylng the pracipe was an affidavit
setting forth that Mr.. Heller had pre-
sented her with some household
goods, had entertained her, and had
proposed marriage.
Mrs. Lewis was busy yesterday at
the Mecca barber shop with orange
sticks and pumice stone. But she
formed her customers into a waiting
line and turned aside to explain every.
thing.
"Mr. Heller came to the home of nv
sister, Mrs. Henry White, with whom
am living, early in September" she
said.

went away: But few days later he

Tired Of Praising Enemy.
(From the Pioneer-Press, Martins
burgh, w. Va.)

The Pioneer Press gets sick and
tired of Negroes going of in refuent
argument and praise Of tardy judicial
actions. For after the wicked grand
father rascality crime had served it's
plans and purposes and was by time
getting thread-bare, this decision was
made. Why should go wild in praise
Of 1t after suffering fifty years because
OF the denials Of my rights? For
many be the times I've been compelled
to ride over the very territory fought
in the war Of the rebellion, though I
paid first class fare, as a jimcrowed

AN ESSAY ON moo YEARS.
Little Eddie Gives His Reasons for
the Annual Holiday and Its
Celebrations.

Moo Yeers is the time when a man
takes off enuf time ter think what a
fine Teller he mite be If he was only a
littul diffrent. Then he makes a lot
Of r%esolushuns and stands in front OF
the mirror to see If there Is a halo
arownd his he'd. The ~resolushuns pee
pull make are like the toys you buy
In the ten sent stoar; they don't last
long.
Another objekt OF Moo Years is to
Civ the wine sellers and the cellars
a chanel ter celebrate. On Moo
Yeer's eve everybody goes down
town, where the lites are britest, and
sit arownd tabuls to waite for the yeer
to brake in. When the clocks get to
the rite place and al the walters have
been pade, the yeer comes in, and
then everybody stands up and hollers
or else blows horns. Why peepul
should do this l don't kno, unles 1t IS
that they don't want the year to
think it has slipped in without emmy
buddy knowing 1t. The feeling on the
noarnins aftur Moo Years is respon-
sibla FOR menny OF the re%sclushuns.
Pa sez that If evvury Moo Yeer's reso-
lushun was kept. we wuddent halter
worry abowt wet and dry eleckshuns,
| but as the mattur stands nobuddy
heers ahowt eny %bartenders being lade
off the furst weke in Janyouary.
Last Moo Yeer's pa sed he would
make a resolution and kepe it If ma
would do the same, and that each
could suggest the resolushun fer the
othur, and ma sed all rite. Then you
a resolve, sed pa, not to ask me
WHARF / hav been when I come home
late at mite. l guess that is a good
one, isn't it, Eddie, he sed to me. Then
ma told him what to resolve, which
was this-you resolve not to so cw1
at mites for a yeer. Pa got pritty sore
you bet, and went and got a lorvel
friend to get up an argument to prove
that he didn't have to live up to the
agreemunt, being as his resolusEu1
ottymatically nullified hers, or sum
atmosphere in owr hoWse for sun
time, and now If there are eny Not
Yeer's resolushun, they are voluntary
affares.
The wurst thing abowt Moo Yeer's
for a boy is that it is the last day 81
Christmas vakashun, and for a man
that it is the day that the bills come
in. l am too young to go to restaw
runts to wclcum in the yeer, but an
old enuf to know that the best reso
lushuns to make are to resolve no
to do things l wuddent do ennyway.

Don't Plunge Hastily, but Con.

You Make.
BY BILL

EWARE, gentle reader, for jan
uary l approaches. It is time
for you to begin to pause in
your wild and woolly career for
the nonce and consider wisely and
well, the particular style Of good reso-
buttons that it is your firm purpose to
put into immediate and drastic effect
on that date. Do not plunge hastily
into the matter, and waste a perfect.
ly good resolution. From my personal
experience | know that it is a human
weakness, in a moment of sentimental
and saffron-hued regret, to tie oneself
up so tight in an ironbound and Ill
considered New Years resolution
that it takes frequently till January Is
to separate oneself from it, and it can
be done then only with considerable
mental anguish and a badly lacerated
conscience.
! have On hand now a varied and
genera job-lot assortment OF shop
worn. good resolutions adopted unani-
mOusly by the committee on resolu-
lions at its annual meeting sometime
between the 25th and 31st Of Deem
Der. None Of these resolutions has
been used long at a time. They are
not frayed on the edges or wabbly in
the bushing from excess of use. They
look awfully good at this gladstone
time of the year when ones bank ac-
count appears delicate and remorse-
full. This is the time for a good reso.

ASSIST THOSE AROUND US
the Needy and Struggling Who
Are Close to Home.

All history teaches us that all condi-
tons change and that every al cloud
must eventually pass away. It is the
fervent hope and prayer of all nations
that peace will come with 1916. Mean
while every individual has his own
plans for the new year and they are
usually generous and kindly in pur-
pose; a universal spirit that explains
the CHEEKY hopes for the new year.

a strenuous and ~exacting time in plan
ming gifts for the Christmastide out
OF the surplus of last year, but they
will be non the less appreciated, be-
cause this years benefactions posi-
bly, represent a greater sacrifice than
those Of years past. Then, too, there
have been heavy claims in American
generosity for funds with which to
send contributions for the millions Of
suffering, homeless and destitute PEG
pie abroad.
But ON New Years day we should
look more closely at home, and remem.
