Alan was a man. Without being tall
he looked tall. His shoulders were not
broad till you noticed the slimness of
his hips. His neck looked too thin
till you saw the strong set of his small
head. In a word he had the perfect

PENSIONS FOR SOLDIERS WIDOWS

Much has been said about woman's
wages, and that they cannot live on
less than SIS or SO week. Now how
can a soldiers widow live on Sl2 q
month at the prices Of necessaries to-
day. which are about double that Of
ten years ago +? Comparatively speak
ing, there are but few of them left,
and a majority Of those few are in an
enfeebled condition and need such ex-
ira care as require extra expense. They
should have at least Sl8 to $50 per
month at the period Of their rapidly de-
eHning years. which is now, to insure
them the comforts and feeling Of indie
pendence to which they are entitled.
Nobody would board one Of them for
$l2 month, and what are they going

ativea to care for them 1t is the last

War prices are hitting the printers
hard these days. Everything that en-
ters into the cost of printing is advanc-
ing with leaps and bounds. Machinery,
materials, paper, stock and inks are
10 to 20 per cent higher than few
months ago Paper dealers are with
drawing all price lists and only quote
figures from day to day. The scarcity
of chemicals that enter so largely into
the manufacture of paper, is largely
the reason for the increased cost.
Thus writes a former Badger:

the bottom fell out of the price and

A filthy little cigarette caused
something of connection at the Star

the operators quarters. A spectator
was responsible for the trouble. The

Its policies have proved failures with

Free trade, or revenue tariff only
with incidental protection. which is the
nearest possible approach to free trade

The question Of geographical location
of Presidential candidates has become a
disappearing element in politics, now
the professional politicians have less to
say in the selection Of delegates to the
convention, and the voters can exert 2
more direct influence in the naming of
their party's candidate. In the present
campaign we find strong men mention
ed for the Presidency who live so far
apart as Massachusetts and Idaho, with
Iowa and Wisconsin thrown in between.
Its the man, the voters say, 'and
not the place he comes from, that
counts. Which of course is disconr
certing to the old time leaders. -
