are rapidly giving way to tha motor apparatus, and in the not far distant future it will be one of the sightslpf lifetime to see in anN5eig city 7 the horses dragging along the f1re"engines. The motor cars can sail through the streets like lightning, but the red streak they leave behind will never hold the fascination of the old horse drawn apparatus.
 This year has witnessed in some 315 cities throughout the United States the disappearance of 1,190 horse drawn fire apparatus from the fire depart ments During the year 1915, where records were kept, it was seen that in these 315 cities there were 7,059 horse-drawn fire-fghting apparatus This year figures show that inl 670 cities, in which are included AhA4kig inal 315, there are onlyS 1869 horse drawn vehicles This is "a great loss and if continued 4for four or five years at the same rate WILL SoOil lIeeu lIe tOlctt ulSdlpGdI- ance of the horssssrom our fire de- partments.
 In some of the northern cities where the horse must be always held in read mess. at least during the winter months, there will not be such day ing off of his services. It is rather diff ficult to get a mOtOr-drawn vehicle through the snow with the same ease in which the horse carries his bur den to it's destination. Yet withal the same trouble is not experienced in the southern cities, and from the advance sheets of some of, the big business houses it is seen that the pending pur- chases of motor apparatus will soon mean the almost total obliteration of the fire horse And with the old horse will go the joy of boyhood in the city. No more will the youngsters have chance to run along with the old fire engine belching smoke from it's black chimney. The motor apparatus will be too fast for the f1eetest. of the kids, and poor old Dobbin will be doing other work, not so attractive. Another friend departs.

The Colonel RIasphcmcs.
(NcW York Tim cS.)


 From time to time it has recently been announced that the fight against MT. Wilson is to be waged only, or almost only, on the tariff. Such an appeal would be an appeal to the belly, and not to the soul of the American nation. By all means pro- vide the things of the body, but only on condition that we treat the body as the servant of the soul
 So Mir. Roosevelt, impetuou. ly charging against a suspected ''boom" of Senator Harding of Ohio, who blows the horn on the battlements of the citadel of protection. MT. RoOse- welt tries, vainly to mitigate his la mentable sin against the true repub- lican faith. He believes heartily in protection, but never has he shown any real fervOr for it. He confessed the other year in a magazine artlcle that questions of the tariff and cur rencv didn't interest him much. They and he is a high moral intultOnlst. require a knowledge of the subject He wants something moraf or sentl- mental over which his boundless res eryoirs of indignation can discharge themselves But the tariff, from the republican viewpoint is such ques- tion. the question of questions, vital nermanent. And now there isn't tear in his iachrymal ducts about the com petition of the pauper labor or Eu- rope and the peoples dinner pail.
 The immortal protective tariff, the palladium of the nations welfare an "appeal to the belly"? This is lay ine prOfane hands on the ark or pro- lection and national salvation. Ihe belly. ouotha! Why, a protective tar irf is the heart and liver, the body and the soul of republican doctrine and national prosperity. It is more than a law. It is a moral and religious prln- ciple essential basic, indispensable, holy. What is incalculably more lm- portant to the Colonel, ii is the slneWS of war. the accelerator of statesmen, the pinions of the heroic mood.
 The tariff an appeal to the belly! Where is the American Protective Tariff league, where is the Home Mar J<et club, in this dread and blasph em- ous hour?

l It soon begins to ferment, however g. 1 process often hastened by the addition 1 of madre, or old pulque.
 Neither mescal nor pulque is ex- 1 pensiVe. One can get drink of the 1 latter for a. cent, while a 14-gallon cask of the famous tequilla brand of mescal may be had for 19 pesos 1 ($9.5O.)
 'The MeXicans surround the discov-
 cry of these maguey beverages with 0 i legend of royal romance. Long be- fore the Montezumas held sway over ! Tcnochtitlan, so the story goes one of
 the early emperors took as his bride ! the beautiful daughter of vanquish- ed foe. The princess brought with her to TenOchtitlan the secret of re- markabIe drink of which her lord and master grew inordinately fond. After imbibing freely of it he would become gratifyingIy docile and torpid, leaving
 the princess free to her own devices. Other Aztec wives induced the prin- cess to share with them the secret of this strange soporific and thus the whole race came under the power of pulque.
 'The Aztec cannot be charged with the invention of the nauSeOuS milk pulqUc, 8 compound of pulque and milk with a dash of rennet. The rennet, part of a cows compound stomach, is partially purified and the odor thus imparted is inter ,5ificd and complicated by that of the pig-skin in which the liquor is contained. The alibi which defenders of the Aztec can offer against the charge of being party to this olfactory crime is that before the Spaniards reached Mexico there were no cattle, horses or donkeys in the country, hence no rennet.
 "Pulque cannot be shipped out of the country because no method of pre- serving it has been discovered, so the vast output of the extensive planta- tion--it is the most important indus try of the states of Hidalgo, Mexico, Puebla and TlaXacala-is consumed at home. Mexico consumes $4,00Q,00O worth of pulQue annually"

Small POtatOcs,
(Collicr's WeekIy.)

Martin Madden, Congressman from Illinois, and Frank Clark, Ccrg~oss- man from Florida, were debating ap- propriations for improving rivers end, harbors. Congressman Madder con. tributed a comparison showing that. whereas his State pays S5,612,4UO.3s in Federal taxes, it is getting back only $850,000 in pork; whilo Florida.
 cntributing only $22S,33S.85 in taxes. is getting s95O,000 in pork. This kind of argument illustrates 9. per- feet type of the pork barrel mind. It is exactly what this country must. get away from if it is ever going to get anywhere in the direction of pre- paredness or any sort of national in- tegration-of acting as a nation rather than as collection of States Tsv Congressman Madden's sort of .,reu- ment every inland State, like Nebras- ka and Kentucky and Colorado, would be Justified in opposing all expendi- ture of money for a navy, because theA money goes back to them. That MT. Madden belongs with the small pota. toes in Congress is illustrated by his further contributions to the debate, among which was this:
 And the State of Illinois furnished the men to defend and preserve the Union, while the State of Florida did everything it could to destroy il.N
 The biggest need of Congress is biz men. Isn't there anybody in the Ejrsks and Second Wards of Chicago big enough to legislate for this nation better than Martin Madden docs?

WE SHALL NOT PASS THIS WAY
 AGAIN.

When the shadows creep over the
 the briA!ant rays of the sun appear
 we forget all about the shadows. Thus
 it is thatj removes all sorrow that youth never dwells on old age, that
 laughter has no time for tears. There
 must be, however, a balancing of these extremes, the one against the other,
 unless life would become sordid
 sorry affair. We would never appre-
 ciate the sunshine without the shad-
 ows. Joy would cease to be some
 thing worth while were sorrow never
 known. Laughter is but the relief
 for teaEs. What would we know of
 going up, were we never down? The
 law of contrasts is the one great ad-
 juster of human nature. And know
 ing all this we should, on our journey
 through life, basl1 in the sunshine so
 often as it appears, dispense joy to the
 sorrowful, create laughter for the
 fearful ones, and help to bring up
 those who are down.
 A correspondent has asked the au-
 thorship of famous quotation, one that every man a. woman would 1o well at this season of the year to memorize and practice. It is this:- II shall pass through this world but once Any good that ] can do, there fore. or any kindness that can show to any human being, let me do il now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for
 shall not D. ss this way again.
 There has been much dispute over the authorship of that beautiful passage, but it is generally conceded 1 that it is from the brilliant mind of | Stephen Grellet. a missionary who 1 fourished in this country shortly be- i fore the Civil War and who visited 1 and preached in many New England 1 towns, probably in New Britain. Stephen Grellet had sorrowful life in 1 it's early stages and knew the ups and | downs of human nature. For every 1 ray of sunshine, he passed under the | II i France, of a noble family where he l was known as Etionne de Grellet de 1 Mabiller. His father was very wealthy and a friend and counsellor 1 of Louis XVI, but during the Revolu- tion the lands and properties of the i family of de Mabillier were ceased and Stephen was imprisoned ard sen | fenced to be shot. After the execu ton of the King he made his escape tn J)cnierara and in 1795 came to New York. where he joined the Society of Trienda. proceeding at once Lpon a i career as a misai onary. He oied in Burlington, N. J., at the age of eighty two His entire later life was an exemplification of his doctrine, 'I shall not pass this way again." and, ,, if he did nothing else by which he ! will be remembered, the simple and i sweet altruiSm of these lines should
 serve as his everlasting epitath.

The Romance of the MctrODOiiS

The Romance of the Metropolis. The elevator waited, r cked with business men and clerks And bankers and stenographers and
 statesmen and agents. The starter snapped his signal; The doors began to close, When a cheru bic faced messenger
 boy slipped in and faced the
 door. He turned and looked us over With a like, questioning, re-
 proachful stare, Then politely doffed his numbered
 cap and held it against his
 breast. The women smiled While painful blushes Swept over the faces of the men in
 the ascending car. And one by one. Until every man in the elevator
 stood sheepishly bare headed. A strange thing happened. The little messenger boy, having
 glanced into his cap, Shouted 'StOp at The twenty-thOid. will Ner!' And replaced his cap on his head at
 a rakish angle, Whistling, All he had done Was to consult The address on the telegram. -J. l.. 5. in New York Tribune,

 Governor A PROCLAMATION


 It is a fair world in which our lines have been cast and few parts of it are fairer than this little state of ours. If it lacks the grandeur of others mountains or the limit less expanse of others prairies, yet here is wonderful mingllng of wooded hills, green meadows and . well-watered valleys. And if the wild life about them has not the brilliant colorings of trOpic lands, yet our birds are beautiful and their songs are sweet. We are apt to forget how much an under standing of these things can add to the richness of our lives and what a duty we owe to those who follow us to preserve for them the benefits we may so freely enjoy. It takes but moment to fell a tree, Elit takes years to replace 1t; care T-less stone or shot may kill nest T'ing bird, and with her die the gen. erations of her kinds whom her care might assure to the coming years. To emphasize these things the legislature has required that a day be set apart each year for their consideration, and in obedience to its mandate, I do now designate Friday, April the twenty-eighth as
