A FEW SMILES.
UNCLE ABNER.

There is just about as much use put
ting 81 man in $40 job as there is in
trying to level off country highway
with safety razor.
There are a good many silk hats in
this country with nothing inside of 'em.
While they are talkin' of havin' uni
form laws, why not pass one prohibitin' ,
uniforms entirely exceptin' for police
men and railroad conductors?
Every once and while we run across
an old-fashioned duffer who carries his
roll of bills in the toe of his shoes, and it
will be noticed that he gen'ally has a
roll to carry.
1t is noticeable fact that very few
hlghball experts ever get to be presi-
dents of railroads.
Am Tilson, our gentlemanly and con-
genial tonsorial artist, always has a
consolin' way of talkin' to the customers
when they get-in the chair, He always
tells about the time Glenn Haskins died
from sneezin' and gettin his throat cut
while lie was workin' on him.
Playin' the base drum wouldn't be so
very difficult if it wasn't for carryin' the
drum.
There was never time in history
when the boys down to the grocery store
didn't think this country was goin' to

which is on tombstone.
Some fellers kin remember as fur
back as the plush furniture, but most
people pass away when they get to be

PROTECTION FUR AMERICANS.

From the New Bedford Standard, Rep.1
The professions of the Democratic
party in regard to the protection of
American citizens contrast strangely
with its performances. "We again de-
clare the policy" the platform says,
that the sacred rights of American
citizenship must be preserved at home
and abroad. The American gov
eminent should protect American citi-
zens in their rights, not only at home,
but abroad, and any country having a
government should be held to strict &C.
countability for any wrongs done them,
either to person or property"
Brave words these; and Enthusiastically
written by Woodrow Wilson. The use
of the phrase "strlct accountability" is
sufficient evidence eff their authorship.
1t would be interesting, by the way, to
know what President Wilson means by
''strict accountability" When he first
used the expression, in his note to Ger
many, the people put the obvious diplo-
matte construction upon it. Strict &C.
countability, they believed, meant war,
or at least breaking off of diplomatic
relations. As it turned out, it meant
nothing of the kind-in fact, it meant
nothing at all.
The failure Of the Wilson Administra-
ton to protect Americans in Mexico, it's
failure even to protect Americans on this
side of the line from Mexican raids,
makes the platform declaration a mock
cry.

HARDY DANDELION.

Parable of the Plant Which No One Wants,
But Which Is One Of the Prettiest Of All.
Now while was setting out the Roots
which Keturah had bought from the man
who made the Seed Catalogue, l found
one Root that Stuck up out of the Ground,
and laid hold upon it, and said, Here
is Root that Beare.h no Label. won
der what it is? Behold, l know not, yet
will plant it, and see what Cometh up.
And Keturah answered, and said,
Knowest thou not what that is? 1t is
Dandelion which thou didst Dig up in
making the Holes for the Flowers.
And l was ashamed that l had not
known it before. Nevertheless, l saw
what it was, even while she was telling
me. For l am not wholly an Ignorant
man, albeit for the moment l knew not
the root, what it was.
And l held the Dandelion root in my
hand. And l looked at it, and behe]d
how deep it had sunk into the earth, and
how firmly it had laid hold on the soil
with its one long Root, and l admired
the way it had planned to Stay put.
And looked at the top, and though it
seemed to have no life, yet there were
selves forth, yea, and Bud that was all
but ready to lift its head above the
ground as soon as the Winter was past.
And | said to the Dandelion, Behold
thou are Plucky Plant Thou sinkest
thy Root to a Great Depth. Thou send.
est up thy Hollow Stalk in the form of
Construction the Strongest known to
any Engineer. Thy White Ball of soft
Down is the most, Beautiful and Delicate
thing in Nature; yea, and even thy yell
low Blossom is Marvellous, for every lit
tie yellow leaf is a flower Moreover,
it is not thy fault that men call thee a
Weed.
If. it were only Hard to make thee
Grow, men would pay Good Money for
thy Roots, and break their Backs setting
thee out, and declare that sight of thee,
sprinkling thy gold over green Lawn,
was the Perfection of Gardening. Meth
err didst thou sin nor thy parent flowers,
yet are thou Despised and Rejected, and
men Love thee Not.
And when | thought of these things,
could not find it in my heart to cut off
life so wonderful and so plucky; neither
did | want it in my garden. But took
it down to the alley that runneth be-
hind my house and planted it there, and
| said, Now the Lord judge whether it
be not better thou shouldst grow there
than that the ground be numbered by a
Tin Can.
Yet looked around and FASTENED back
to the House lest my Neighbors should
know that | had planted Dandelion
| And who knoweth whether | did right
or wrong?
| For if some great Blight should come
upon the Dandelions in the Front Lawns
of all men, then would they come and
seek in my Alley, and beg a seed of my
Dandelion.
For though be chided for giving the
Dandelion Fighting Chance for its life,
yet have | known men whose lives were
as Weeds whom God Spared in His
Mercy, and they Bloomed in Wonderful
and Unexpected Goodness. The Ad-
vance.

MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL

The people of the San Juan coun-
try are doing u wonderful work in the
way of developing the resources Of
this section. They are working thru
number of channels, all legitimate
and forceful, but not one of them can
accomplish more for the money, time
and energy spent than can the Colo
rado-New Mexico fair association.
For this organization, it is no ex-
pertinent. Its work is already part
of San Juan history. The people
know what this organization has ac-
complished and thy know what it can
do in the future.
AT the present time committee
is out soliciting in the interests OF
the proposed fall fair and we bespeak
them the usual success. 1t may be
that some are not yet reconciled to
the fact that it costs money to get up
fair on the scale that will please
the people of the San Juan, but when
we look facts in the face we realize
that we must get into the harness
and put on good fair this fall.
Occasionally business man feels
that Lc has right to drop out be-
F., use his particular idea alo y
this line or that line was not carried
out at some time or other A second
thought will convince all that this
thought carried to final conclusion
in all things would stop the wheels
