LUKE MeLuKE SAYS.

When man hates another man he
can't conceal hts hatred. But the
more woman hates another woman
the sweeter is the smile when she
meets the other woman.
AS long as man has twelve or
thirteen hairs that he can brush
across the top of his dome he thinks
I it is up to him TO laugh at the other
men who are bald-headed.
Any wife can tell you it is a whole
lot easier to fool a husband than II
is TO fool bed bug.
Funny how a man likes to have his
daughters boss him and how mad he
gets when his daughters mother tries
it.
What has become of the old-fash-
toned man who used TO brag that
they had to break the ice the day he
was baptized?
There are other hopeless tasks. But
the most hopeless is to try to convince
a drunken man that he is drunk.
When a man is his own worst en-
envy, his other enemies can sit down
and wait for his finish.
Ever notice that the persistent
practical joker is the same fellow who
wants to fight when Joke is played
on him.
There was time when a bride
thought that bee quilt was a dandy
wedding present. We said there WAS
time.

Justice is yet to be melted out to the
Germans. Not injustice. but simply
Justice. Having deliberately violated
every law against civilized humanity
there are penalties that justice must
inflict upon Germany. The gravest
injustice that could be done to the
rest of the world would be to with
hold the penalties fixed by God and
man for the crimes committed by the
Huns Nothing but the certainty of
just and awful punishment will serve
to turn that nation from her policies
of force and deception and treachery,
policies that have been drilled into
their very natures during the last rs
years The fight against Germanism is
not over. 1t must be crushed and
stamped out of existence The people
of all other nations must set them
selves immovably and eternally
against this curse of the earth. Not
as matter of prejudice or hatred or
vengeance, but as the only means of
insuring the world against the dang
erous policies and the vicious teach
ings of those people Give them JUS

Government ownership OF railroads
in the United States would in all
probability prove to be a great mis-
take. AS many avenues of business as
possible must be left open for indi-
vidual effort and enterprise. There is
no greater or more important one than
the railrotld business Furthermore,
the government cannot conduct the
business as effectively or economical
ly as private operators. It would
soon become the greatest political ma
