HER HUSBAND WAS AN onER

Mrs. Gratin, wife of o. Gratin, the
lubricant inventor, tottered home joy
ously with four veal chops clutched to
her heart, for finally she had got lit
tie work to do sewing holes around
buttons and at last she and her hus-
band would hove something substan-

A block away from her home a
smeel greeted her family. At the
front door it greeted her so violently
that she had to clutch hold of her
hairpins to keep from falling. In the
kitchen she found her husband, al
though hardly able to stand from lack

messes in half a dozen sauce pans on
the stove
"Opthar!" she cried. SAT last we
eat! We got veal chops-four whole
live veal chops"
"Good, good, +" muttered o. Gratin
absently as he stirred a sticky painful
that smelled like skunk s feet stewed
in asphalt.
" But, Opthar" protested his wife

And he kept stirring and muttering
10 himself, until three hours later, he
dropped dead from hunger. His wife
dragged herself to the stove, fried the
chops in Snoozerine oil, and ate them,

is war archaic, unciyilized war, but
war All rules bave been thrown away;
all nobility; man has come down to the

justify, we will not intervene. 1t is not
our war
Then why are we in? Because we
could not keep out. The invasion of
Belgium which opened the war, led to
the invasion of the United States by
slow, steady. logical steps. Our sym
pathies evolved into a conviction of self
interest. Our love Of fair play ripened
into alarm at our own peril.
1--WE talked in the language and in
the spirit of good faith and sincerity as
honest men should talk, until we dis
covered that our talk was construed as
cowardice. And Mexico was called up
on to COW us. We talked as men would
talk who cared alone for peace and the
advancement of their own material in
terests, until we discovered that we
were thought to be a nation of mere
money-makers, devoid of all character

humiliation upon narrow path of ma
tional subservience We talked as men

not for war, until we found that the
treaty torn to pieces at Liege was but
the symbol of a policy that made agree
ments worthless against purpose that
knew no word but success.
And so we came into this war for
ourselves. 1t is war to save America
to preserve seIf-respect. to justify
our right to live as we have lived. not
as some one else wishes us to live. In
the name of freedom we challenge with
ships and men, money, and an undaun.ed
spirit that word Verboten, which Ger

Arnold, a coiored girl, giving her adj
dress as Kentucky. 1t is the first rec
ord of a white man and colored woman

effect and the first one on record in the
county between the white and colored
races.
Mr.. burlington gives his age at So
years, and his prospective bride names
her age at l8years. tits said the event
is the result of correspondence car
ried on between them, during which the
feature of color had not been considered
until the future bride arrived here.
Mr.. burlington has four children by

Physicians of Opinion That IL Does
More Harm Than Good to Set UP

The question whether doctors should

The debate started over a discussion
as to how to doctor up Americans SO

solution of the problem when they adj
iourned than when the discussion be-
gan.
After a prolonged discussion Of the
proper remedies for the presence OF
inefficient persons in the community,
In which it was prophesied that the
day was coming when it would be
fashionable to be examined, physically
and mentally, every now and then,
Doctor Meltzer said: THAT will only
