YES" replied Uncle Ezra. Hank
bought one and determined to make
his fortune out'n it. He built a large
wrought iron cage in his back yard
and put up a high board fence around
it. He said he didn't know how large
the critter was and he made the cage
plenty big enough for it, Hank
claimed as how a thesaurus was a
big prehistoric animile and said he
would exhibit it at ten cents throw.
He didn't know what he would feed
it, but bought fifteen tons of hay for
a starter and put an ad in the paper
that the thesaurus would be on ex-
hibition to the general public. Then
everybody set down and waited for
the theSauruS to come. Finally the
mail man left it. 1t was a box about
the size of a dried herring box and
when Hank opened 1t he found the
thesaurus was nothin but a book
about the size of dictionary. And

Colonel Roosevelt holds the nation
up to shame and declares that we are
playing an ignoble part in the affairs
of the world. And maybe the Colonel
is right about it. But in this day of
grace, or disgrace as the Colonel would
have it, the business of being live
and healthy coward is held by more
and more people to be superior in ev-
cry way to that of being a dead hero.

From Other Pens
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

An article in the Springfield Repub-
lican on the losses in the great war
over the lives 0estroyed-closes by
saying: "The worst of it is that the
great majority of those victims of the
war Moloch are young men who had
been the promise of, years to come"
The cutting off of the careers of young
men is one of the saddest thoughts
of war. Most of them had laid plans
of life, in the various trades and pro-
LESSONS, and at one stroke all these
plans are broken asunder. If it had
not been the line of presidents, gov
ernors Justices, financiers. captains of
industries, great merchants, statesmen
and inventors would have shone with
other names, and a wholly different
face put on the social industrial and
political situation. In the throng that
was cut off at the beginning of the
war was doubtless the greatest preach
er, the greatest editor, the greatest
writer, the greatest poet and all clas-
ses of human greatness and success.
And among many who lived, the great
fact of war changed the tide of their
lives, so that the man who was to
have been a great merchant became a
railroad man and the boy whose ambi-
ton burned for the law became a rails
er of fancy breeds of cattle. Thus it
is that wars not only kill people, but
they turn che social status upside
down.-Ohio State Journal
D
THE REWARDS OF LABOR
The report of the National Civic Fed
GRAFTON on the apportionment of the in
come of the working people will not please
labor agitators radical Socialists, for
it shows that in the branches examined,
involving more than 10000O0O workers,
labor got two thirds of the money returns
and capital only one-third, out of which
it had to make up the depreciations in
plant and other like losses There is
every reason to believe that this general
ratio would prevail almost universally, ex-
cept in certain cases of proprietary pro-
ducts inventions. If this report, which
was prepared by committee as free from
bias as most committees of this kind can
well be, leads TO some moderation on the
part of those who have been claiming that
labor only gets one-fifth in the way of
income in gainful occupations it will be
a good thing for the country is rather tired
of superficial conclusions to the
lations of labor and capital. OF course,
it is in order for the opponents of the
Civic Federation's findings to attack the
facts, but for the present their review of
large body of statistics must be
viewed more or less decisive. If, as has
beel suggested, the committee has caught
up with and nailed untruth. it will be
interesting to how much longer the
untruth will continue to circulate.-Phil-
adelphia Ledger.

If each of the state officials and
