 It's all very simple and plain. The kaiser world rule is near at hand. Be fore long he will have succeeded Ma poleon at St. Helena and be attended by as many as two servants, and there he will sit in his old age at his ease, conscious that the world is bow ing down to him and wearing red, white and blue halo.
 By that time Uncle Sam will see there is no use fighting any more and he'll lay down his arms and go back to digging potatoes, etc., just as if nothing had happened.

HOME STUDY COURSE

Mrs. E. E. Moseley has just com- pleted home study course in short hand. The work is taken up lesson by lesson and taught just as if the pupil were present in person. These lessons have been carefully worked out. For four years a record has
 been made of the different questions asked by students, and as the work progresses confidence has grown with it to the extent that Mrs. Moseley does not expect to do any more class work, but devote her entire time to this new method of teaching, believing fmplic- itly that any pupil can learn short hand more thoroughly and in a short CT space of time, than by the old method of attending class, for it is impossible to get together any number of pupils in class who will pro- gross with the same rapidity. A limit ed number of copies will be ready by September 1st, and others will be completed as soon as possible. The price of this course is $12.00. This includes text books and shorthand dic- tionary.

CROSSES-IRON AND OTHERWISE

The kaiser hasn't been drawing much lately on his supply of iron for decorating his victorious troops with crosses. His supply of wooden crosses as grave markers, however, is getting rather scarce, and he has used a large number of pen and Ink crosses opposite the names of his barbarians who have made the sign of the cross when the allies rushed over them and hey crossed the line with their hands in the air and With the word "kamerad" on their lips.
 The kaiser's forces also have been using many crosses or rather cross ings to get back across the Marne the Vesle, the Somme and the Aisne and it is said that the Crown Prince of Germany and the Grown Prince Rupprecht have been conferring the double cross upon each other with umpunity and livishness, They arc considered cross-wise.
 Crosses and crossing are going te figure largely in the German cam paign from now on. Sooner or latel they will be crossing the German bor- der and behind it they will see more wooden crosses fthe people who starved to death or died from colo and exposure. In time, after their wis ion is made clearer by invading arm ies of the allies, they will be of ambl tion and vainglory.
 If the emperor continues his policy of efficiency and kultur he will order the court carpenter to make eight handsome crosses, one for himself anC one for each of his sons who have been Heading" his "invincible arm ies" from point about p miles lr the rear, or at least far enough away to be out of reach of allied big guns
 As matter of decoration he might mount a vulture on the cross If he wants for himself. An ass's heao would be appropriate for the clown prince's. The others could be mounted with crow, dunces cap, a hog, ar ape, a reptile and a wolf.
 The balance of the arrangements he might as we'll leave in the hands of Satan, because they'll be carried out in hell.
