Republican Arguments.

The Republicans in the coming cam
paign will show that the unfavorable
condition of the national finances is
due to Democratic mismanagement
and to Democratic disagreement
They will point out that the actual eff
fects of the Underwood bill before the
war proved it inimical to the country's
business, and that it sacrificed revenue
now badly needed to put the nation
in a condition of adequate defense.
They will impress the need for indus
trial and commercial defense, no less
than military and naval, which can be
secured only by protection by tariff
against the dumping of foreign prod
ucts that is sure to follow the close of
the war. And, if they are wise, they
will insist upon the tariff being taken
out of politics by the creation of
tariff commission for the ascertain
ment of the fundamental facts essen
tial to any businesslike disposition of
this problem.

~ LITTER and gladness and grand

~ Hearts that are toyed with and
furnished, souls that are
squandered to swine;
Riches aye, riches uncounted, things that
the follies call fair,
Leisure, sweet, long hours of leisure, free
dom from nerve racking care;
Never thought Of the morrow, never a
dream of the end;
On with the dance and the laughter, pas
sion to spend and to spend
Flying, the night is full fleeing, coming
the dawn of the day;
Live while the lights are bright burning,
live while ye can and ye may;
Deep in the wine wildly wallow, deep Of
it's falsity drink,
Surcease it brings and a blessing; in, 1t
will not let we think.
Many's the thought that comes rushing,
straight in the midst of the din;
Many's the prayer that is whispered:
many's the pain in the sin.
Laughter low, lingering laughter echoing
down through the years.
Langdorous lights and allurements, cover
ing all of the tears;
Money and music and madness, eyes that
are blinded with lust,
Dreams that are shattered and broken,
hopes that are covered in the dust;
Smile, for there's wealth in the smiling;
sing, for there's peace in the song;
Block out the specter of future-God in
your heaven, how long?
Heartache and sorrow and sadness, tears
that are dry and unshed.
Soon is the swift hour all over, soon is the
wish to be dead,
Dead with the heart of a maiden, dead
with the soul of a girl,
Pure, and untouched, and mistaken, clear
of the sensuous whirl.
Die, all unloved and unhonored! Can we
recall how to pray?
60 to your Makers tribunal-ye of the
easiest way!

DepeW's Great Speech,

Senator Depew once related, 81 went
out to make political speech with
some older men one night They want
ed something red hot, and l handed it
out.
II just turned myself to skin the OPP
position, and, on the whole, the audi

cheered the more l warmed to it. 1

cess. But after got home l was wor-
ried. l had roasted the other side
awfully. l lay awake wondering if it
wouldn't react and injure our side
more than the opposition.
"Then l bethOught of some personal
illusions l had made that might easily
be construed as libelous. l got good
deal excited and slept very little. In
the morning 1 hurried down to see
whether the papers had roasted me.
The meeting was reported all over the
front page. l plunged into it, shivering
in nervousness. But l needn't have
worried. What it said about my speech
was in the last two lines:

gazed into the crystal and predicts
that William Jennings Bryan will be
at the st. Louis convention and raise
a considerable disturbance Shouldn't
wonder if Mr.. Hall were right. On a

A Peculiarly of Carrots.

Although carrots are among the
most commonly cooked vegetables in
various forms-stewed, boiled, PURGE,
soups and introduced into ragouts,
braises and mirepoix yet they are
among the least digestible of vegeta-
bles; but, strange to say, notwith-
standing their indigestibility, so far
as regards form and substance, they
are not known to cause any digestive
arrangement
The great affection which cooks and
their masters have for carrots can only
be explained by their color. which
makes an impression on the eve. and
their flavor and sweetness, which
speak to the palate.-Pall Mall Ga

Teaching Agriculture.

The demand for properly trained
men to teach agriculture in secon-
Diary schools is greater than the
supply and, from present indica-
tions, will continue to increase for
some time. Hitherto, compara-

culture with the deliberate inten-
tion of teaching it as lifework.
In consequence, while provision
for agricultural education has been

teachers is still small. = The Item

GOOD ROADS.

We feel that the wind is begin

as you can hear this matter dis
cussed everyday on our streets, we
have some very active advocates of
good roads. who are willing to tax
themselves heavily for good roads,
while others are apparently indif-
ferent, but those who are indiffer-
ent, do not realize the real situa-
tion. All our neighboring towns
and parishes are paving their
streets and gravelling their public
highways. Unless we make an
effort to keep our roads in as good
condition as our neighbors, we will
lose the trade of the country peo-
pie who will not come to us on our
muddy and boggy roads if they
can go elsewhere on fine, dry gra-
vel roads.
Think of this matter seriously,
as you will soon have to take an
active. park in this important mat
ter. We feel that the people are
realizing the necessity of good
permanent roads.
