Good afternoon, madam" said tho JeWeler. ''What can I show you?"
 'Td like to look at the platinum sunburst in the window, if you don't mind.'
 Happy was the iewelcr to oblige; so many people buy automobiles now adays and so few buy sunbursts
 He climbed into his window on his hands and knees. Carefully reaching past hundred other articles on dis play there, he secured the beautiful object that had caught the Iady's eye He set it before her on the counter
 She examined 1t closely 'How much is it?'' she asked. He told her.
 "Thank you," she said. M hus- band gave he one like it for Christmas and I just wanted to know how much it cost him. Good day"

THE BOYS IN OLIVE DR.AB.

Dedicated to Co., I, First Regim ent c. N. G., by Robert B. Crocker) Why this hustle, all this hustle?
 Will you tell me what it means? Drums a-pounding, bugles sounding
 In the streets and on the greens Horses prancing, scenes enhancing
 In the city and in town This preparing of the daring
 Loved sons in khaki brown. Flags are flying, women crying,
 Stern men are through it all Quickly swarming, where they re
 forming
 To respond to duty's call 'Tis the order, ITO the border"
 That has come to them this day And they're banding, ready standing To defend the U. $. A. Sword a-staying, we've been praying That the day might never dawn When the rattle, crash of battle
 To our ears again be borne Men die thirsting, shrapnel bursting On the field and on the sea Not regretting, pain forgetting
 For the flag that set them free. Now approaching, cen encroaching
 on the bound'ry of our land Softly stealing, death a dealing
 Come marauders in a band. Vengeance swearing, we're prepar-
 ing
 To defend and to protect The country's honor and our banner
 From such acts of disrespect. So uprising, mobilizing Spirits tried and true Are awaiting, palpitating
 Meath the Red the White and Blue If war ever comes, or never Without pompous pride or sham Just for honor, waits the dOnner Of the drab for Uncle Sam.

 It will be interesting to have the status of mem bers of the congress of the United States who are officers in the national guard defined. It would be equally interesting to ascertain the history of a situation which forbids, if 1t does, a member of the congress from serving in the guard while serv- ing in the legislative body of his country.
 There might very appropriately be a question as to a congressional guardsman drawing pay as an officer in the service while drawing pay as a member of the congress- but 1t is scarcely conceivable that, because a m em Der of the congress marches to the front with his regiment, he for feits the seat in the congress which his constituents elected him to. We can imagine, for example, no com plaint being registered against Lieu tenant-Colonel Tilson, the duly elected representative in this congressional district, because he went to the front with the Second regiment. It is true that direct. communication would thus be cut off between the voters of this district and the congress of the united states, but there would Stlll remain representation enough from this state to afford the people of this district all the protection they would need. Congressman Ttlson's associates, who belong to tho same political par ty would be glad to shoulder his duties and care for his constituents.
 There would be a decided element of injustice in compelling a member 4@ ed to the colors We do not under stand that the members of the for eign house of legislation, who were called to the colors in their respective countries, were deprived of their legislative seats. If there is a section in the new military law which oper- ates otherwise in this country, it should be easily amended and made straight.

Washington, D. C., June 22.-The Khanikan region, where the Russians are reported to have been checked in their advance upon Bagdad, is the subject of the following war geogra- phy bulletin issued by the National Geographic society from it's headquar- ters in Washington:
 Tt is a thirty-twO hours journey, along a much travelled caravan route, from Khanikin to Bagdad The lat ter city lies eighty-five miles south west of the Turkish border town which is situated on both sides of the Hull van river tributary of the Diala, whose waters empty into the Tigris.
 "Nestling near the foothills of the Zagros mountains. with the fertile but uncultivated Mesopotamian plain stretching to the south, Khanikin Is a commercial gateway between Persia and Asiatic Turkey. Through it pass the caravans which bear to Bagdad the produce destined for transhipment to the port of Basra on the Persian Gulf. To the east lies Kermanshah, famous for it's carpets and it's horses, and situated almost equi- from ldDT1H, 1cnerdn, lS1anan ana Bagda0.
 Not only does the traveller tourney ing from Bagdad to Khanikin meet trade caravans but frequently he en- counters curious funeral processions of Shiite pilgrims making their sol emn way from various points in Kurd- istan to Kerbela, below Bagdad. The faithful believe that there is special virtue in being buried near the shrine of Husein, who fell at Kerbela in 6S0 A. D., while battling with the enemies of his father, Ali, son-in-law of the prophet and fourth caliph.
 ''Khanilin is charmingly situated in the midst of gardens whose fruits and palms are famous. Six hours journey from here on the road to Kermanshah, is Kasr-i-Shirin, once the headquarters of a notorious rob Der chief and interesting on account of It's connection with the romantic legends concerning Ferhad and Shir- in.

prevent a war with Mexico which now seems inevitable, because of the ig- norance and obstinacy of Mexican leaders, and the envy and hatred of American paftisans.
 Now that a hateful war has been forced upon the country after such a fashion, the same press that before declared the presidents Mexican pol icy lacking in courage, now denounce him for calling the militia to the colors
 He is criticised by the Sun for en- gazing the country in a war from which the American people shrink with disgust" and by the New York Press, as a "man who is always too late"
 - The Press and The Sun have been noisiest in the fry for American unity, loudest in the claim that South Amer ican trade belongs to the United States and noisy beyond belief in proclaiming the country unprepared.
 Even now The Press says that tho army is of little worth, and the militia even worse.
 It is time for Americans to ponder upon the words of Washington in his Farewell Address:
  chiefs of the spirit of party are suf- ficient to make it the interest of a wise people to discourage and restrain it.
 "It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the pub lie administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealOusies and false alarm; kindles the animosity of one part against the other.
 "It opens the door to foreign in f1uence and corruption which find facilitated access to the government through the channels of party passion.
 Thus the policy and will of the country are subjected to the policy and will of another"
 The Bourbon journals of Wall street condemn the president because he does not fight in Mexico, and slan- der the government because internal intrigue and foreign meddling have finally made it imperative for the na- ton to call upon the military arm.
 The course of President Wilson has the approval of all thoughtful men, and much of the reasoning to justify his course is furnished by those who try to destroy him.
 Those who desire the unity of America, should not resent because the president consulted the countries to the south, seeking to compose Mexico.
 Those who desire the United States to hold South American trade should not oppose policy which links the bond of friendship in a stronger way.
 Those who proclaim the nations unpreparedneSs how can they, in good conscience, with the same voice, protest because there was not an ear ly war.
 Should we fight before 1t Is neces- sary; and if any give assent to this, then should we fight before we are ready?
 Let the critics of President Wilson answer that question.

 Judge F. B. Hungerford of this city, who is associate counsel with B M Holden in Mrs. Gilligan's defense, was asked this morning what he was go- ing to do when the case came up. Judge Hungerford evaded a direct answer but remarked that he might not have to do anything as according to newspaper reports he learned that the woman might he considered in sane. Judge Hungerford amended his statment by saying that what ho has heard is only gossip gleaned from newspaper reports, but if true tho lawyers for the defense would not have to do anything.
