latchkey and entered. He passed
through the hall and reception room
to the library and paused on the
threshold dramatically. Florence
stepped back with a sharp cry of
alarm. She had heard the hall door
open and close and had taken it for
granted that Jones had entered.
There was a tableau of short dura-

stranger in a singularly pleasant voice.
Florence had been imposed upon
too many times. She shook her head

Florence slipped unsteadily behind

KNOCKING THE GLooMs.-

KNOCKING The GlOOMS.-The
Glooms seem to have The Day Book
cornered,' especially in The Forum.
The articles on cabarets, alcoholic
drinks, saloons, comfort stations,
etc., are stupid and untruthful
The critics of cabaret music and
singing do not know what singing
and music is for.
The imagined diseased kidney by
the use of alcoholic drinking is less
diseased than P MS article on the
subject. His supposed insane by.
drink" person could write a better
article on subject than he did on sa-
looms.
Dear Mr.. Know-it-all-on-an sub
jects Allen Steven has discovered sa-
loon politics fighting comfort stations
for the public. The saIoonkeeper
that would keep a comfort station for
the writer's of such trash would have
to pawn the furniture, as P. NJ says

Let the people vote for what they
want Reformers do not want the
people to control They and their
hackers are not for the initiative and

If the people could vote and control
the saloon they could also control
franchises and other special privi-
leges. Then the pious millionaire
frauds and reformers might lose con-
troll of the government and the privi-

THE NUDE.-Why is it that men
and women adorn the nude and try
at the same time to think of it, or
pretend to, as something awful?
Why is there more hypocrisy at
tached to the nude than anything
else known to man or womankind?
Why is it that mankind in the nude
is censored.
Is the nude something to be
ashamed of? Are you in the nude
ashamed of yourself. Granting you
take such narrow view, then God
ought to be ashamed of his master
piece, mankind, in the nude. 1 am
not asking what man says or any
bible character, but is there any men
ton in the bible where God condemns
mankind in the nude? If God CEN
sored mankind in the nude, since he
created this earth, why could He not
have clothed him as He did the lilies
of the valley?
If one appeared on the streets in
the nude, such one would under man
made, Funkhouser laws be arrested.
Would such arrest be sanctioned, not
from a hypocritical preachers view
point, but from Gods? If so, then
