WHEN THE WOMEN KNIT.

When the women sutrt 20 knit
get fuSy, | admit;
I can stand the chlldron's laughter
And their constant merry chatter;
stand the tramp on floor and
rafter,
OF their young feets pit-n pntter;
can read while some soprano
Sings and bangs the old piano.
But somehow my being ltcheA
When the women count their stitches,
Seldom Is Il I, start fup@lng,
But when women are discussing
How TO turn a heel or mako Il
Helmet or n khaki sweater
I confess I want 10 take N
Walk until Pm feeling better,
For the constant stitching, stitching,
seems 90 set my nerves atwitchlng.
And my fre,fuI hair seems curling
When the women folks are pnrllng
7 can stand the dentists grinding
And his buzxing without mindtAg;
] cnn stay, contented. sitting
Listening 10 the women chatter.
But the click OF needles knitting
Seems 90 bo different matter.
For that constant, never sending
Yarn about n needle bending,
Seems 10 set my nerves n-qulver:
Somehow knitting makes me shlyer.
It's q puzyl. deep and Vafn It
Is 10 struggle 10 explain II.
And atho II may be silly,
Queer. ridiculous and crazy
StiIi I feel spnsm chilly.
And my mind grows blank ana
haiy
And my nerves all start TO dancing,
When, no matter where I'm planclng,
In each nook and corner sitting
There's woman busy knitting.

One necktie Is all that any man
needs. When he wears II out he can
buy another. Why complicate life
and tie up capital with neckties7
Some men have twenty or thirty

is three; one in front, one behind,
and one for emergencies.

 The sale of the New York Evening Post takes that great paper of the ownership of the Willard fam fly the first time since it purchased by Henry Willard in 1881. It is announced however, that there will be no change in the Posts policy account of the sale. Rollo Ogden, who has been editor of the paper for fifteen years, will continue to direct its policies To insure this, the new owner has named committee three, Theodore N. Vail. president of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company Henry Prchett, president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, and Ellery Seds- wick. editor of the Atlantic Monthly, to vote his stock
 Rollo ogden, the editor of the Post. is worthy successor of Edwin L. Godkin, who one of the haf-dozen greatest editors of the United States a third of century ago
 lo announcing his purpose of giving the editors Of the Post free hand in conducting the paper and directing policies MT. Bingham says he is follow ing the traditions of the publication And that is true for Godkin could have more completely controlled the Post if he instead of Henry Willard, had been its owner Like his father, Oswald Garri- son Willard kept his hands off and permitted his edi- tors to have full direction of the paper.
 Mir Willard will continue editor and proprietor of The Nation, which founded by his uncle, Wen dell Phillips Garrison and Edwin l.. Gokdn in 1865.
 The Courier-Journal, which has changed owner ship for since the consolidation of The Courier nearly fifty years ago, is known throughout the country because Henry Watterson, "Marse Henri of anectonate regard practically all Awericans. has been editor.

 Probably no one but Parisians has been able to keep track of the de- crees and regulations governing food and other consumption.
