Way to Stop

Anybody who has travelled Europe knows that the tips given

Since the there has been comparatively little tipping done

WHEN you receive a bill from
anybody don't get sore and resort
to the folly of making resolution
to the effect that "I'll show you. -
Speaking of bad human traits there
is no other one that is as prevalent
or so unreasonable as the one OF
taking offense at a statement OF
accounts. When merchant
or anyone allows us credit IN time
of stress we're apt to forget all
about it when prosperity smiles
upon us. A merchant once re-
marked that many years ago when
a number of his patrons were in
poor circumstance he graciously
carried them on the strength OF
promises that they would pay when
they got on their feet. He stated
that so per cent of them, when
they did get on their feet-after
their bills were outlawed-repud-
lated them although they knew in
their narrow souls that they were
morally indebted to their bene-
factor. A man may air his virtues
until he is blue in the face and
pray until the angels weep, but
unless he is so constituted that he
will square with everybody we
wouldn't give a boot for his
religion. Honesty is something
we should embrace and shame the
devil with. Getting sore at man
who submits bill does not liqui-
date the debt but indicates desire
to repudiate it and forget the favor
extended in the original transac-
ton.

SOME one in Duluth had an idea
that the Town of Stuntz cast too
many votes at the primaries and
detectives and attorneys were sent
there to see that not too many
votes were cast at the election.
They came, carefully watched and
nothing was discovered. The vote
at the election was about 100 more
than the vote at the primaries.
Years ago, we remember when Ely
was also infested with spoilers"
and Duluth watchers at every
national election. Nothing more
was ever discovered than that some
one was some fifty-seven varities
of damphool and that his residence
was not on the rargrs.

PRESIDENT Wilson has been
elected by the free, fearless and in
dependent Americanism of the
west" chortles the Democratic
press. What about the 126 cleo
toral votes of the solid south where
the sentiment above expressed is
treason pure and simple and where
to be Republican is looked upon
as a crime. Considering that the
north, east and west was about
equally divided, it is plain to be
seen that the solid south elected
Wilson.

A PARTING SHOT.

Perhaps it is best after ALL" re-
marked the rejected sutton as he lin.
gered in the hall. "A man of twenty.
five would probably soon tire of wife
who lowered around the thirty-two
mark"
why, Mr.. Ardent" said the woman
in the case, how very ungallant you
are to insinuate that am thirty-two."
well, perhaps you are not" he re-
piled, "but it certainly struck me that
you were somewhere near the freezing
point"
And with this parting shot he
crawled into his ulster, let his person
through the front door, and fastened
to flag the next car headed downtown.

THERE does not seem to be a
very crying need for more game
preserves in this country but there
does seem to be a need of regula-

wolves seem to be increasing faster
than the game in the preserves and
an effort is being put forth to cope
with this pest by the state officials
by issuing permits to trap on the
reserves, as can be seen by a story
in another column.

Now that election is over and

IT is very probable that Amend
ment No. has carried by fair

only one that was consistently
advertised and as advertising pays
