Sly Shots at the Solons.
By THE OBSERVER.

The youngest governor in the
United States-thirty-thre year old
Keith Neville. OF Nebraska-was
observed yesterday meandering
about the halls of Congress- He Is
perfectly familiar with them, too. for
he was a boy here when Judge New
lille, his father. was q member of
the House. The son. however, has
not been heard to say that he wishes
to come here.
New York State politics give
promise, this season. Of being any
thing but adjourned" The indlca-
tions are. in fact. that a ivelier
time than usual will be staged
there. and that when members OF
Congress get back there they will
wish with all their hearts that Con-
gress had remained in session.
John Sharp williams has return
ed to the city but he has not yet is
sued any statement on the outcome
State. What he might say, IL he
said anything. however. IL well
known.
This week will be buster than Is
welcomed by Congress-and IL the
hot weather comes on to supplant
the delightful cool days we have
been enjoying there is no telling
what hash words will be written
into committee proceedings and the
Record itself.
Fifteen carloads OF Hollanders
went across the country late last
week on the way to Java. They
are going to stay there until the
war IL over-which shows the
abundance OF their good sense. No
effort was made en- route to colon
ize them and capture them for the
fall political campaign vote.
The surprising defeat administer
ed to the Underwood talk re-
straint" resolution demonstrated
the need Of Il. although expressing
emphatIcally the desire OF the Sem
ate not to have the step taken.
Such Is the differences between
need and desire.
There are times when the choice
of administrative officers. for some
Of the departments, seems to be
made on the same basis as jurymen
are chosen for legal triad-for
what they don't know instead Of
what they do know.
There Is zoe" Davis and what Is
he doing? The inquiry is made
daily at the Capitol and we confess
we have not heard many of the
members to whom II has been d.
rected, able to answer Il with any
degree Of accuracy.
Someone has said with utter
truthfulness-and it Is appropriate
just now-that John B. Corn has
more public enemies and more pri-
vate friends than any other factor
In our affairs nowadays.

Love Your Work.

The richest rewards come only when
one can literally fall in love with ones
work. If you are keenly interested in
vour daily efforts. your work is being
done more satisfactorily. 1t is labor
of love. Every lay is an enjoyable ex-
periencc.
Love your work. Retain your youth
full enthusiasm. All this means that
Won must take every possible care of
YOUR health. That you must maintain
your physical energies at high-water
mark. Remember always that you de-
pend upon your bodily machine for the
attainment of your object in life. Take
care Of that machine.
Is 1t not worth more than an auto
mobile. than an airplane, fine horse
or dogg Recognize its value to the full.
Remember that each day you are what
your food makes you. Your muscles,
the strength and contour of your body,
are influenced by the exercise you
take. The blood that makes up the
tissues. that nourishes and gives en-
ergy and enthusiasm to your brain, de-
pends upon your diet and exercise and
the general care of your body.-Physi-

While these metal clothes, uncom-
Portable. hot and heavy though they

that warriors rode to battle wholly

Egyptians, the Greeks and Romans
Of the earlier days, We're satisfied
with such partial protection as
would shield E. part OF their

Dictionaries, bronzed and Scared with
eyposure and fighting, laughed rather
contemptuously at the fresh leyies
which. when sent TO the field, wished
to shield their bodies as much as pos

in the works of military writer OF

men appreciate the privilege Of free
speech with their supcriors, but never
abuse it, and any nmn with Il legiu-
mate complaint can always get ready
and sympathetic hearing. This system
has fostered a spirit of mutual trust,
loyalty and confidence which has
prompted some Of the most heroic
deeds of the war.
The high standard of education and
intelligence accounts in great meas
ure for the extraordinary adaptabiiity
of the Canadians to new and varying
styles of warfare and for their ability
to spring many painful surprises upon
the Hun in the shape Of ruSeS de

Dutch DOGS.

In Holland the lot of some dogs is
not at all a happy one. Many Of them
have to work very hard, indeed for
the little food that is necessary TO
keep them alive. In many instances
the food they eat is not the same as
the American dog has. Some Dutch
dogs will eat carrots and turnips-in
fact, almost anything that is put be-
fore them. They have to draw the
vegetables, milk and other tradesmen's
carts in order that mynheer may walk
alongside at his ease.

The Canadian army corps is Splen-

bravery and endurance which it has
