The peeved Republicans in this
city are holding up their hands in
holy horror over President Wilson's
appeal for Democratic Congress.
But their humiliation may be eased by
looking back during the Spanish
American war when President Nc
Kinley just a. the negotiations were
in progress, made an appeal to the
country for Republican Congress.
The Republicans played the game and
President Wilson only duplicated the
order this time.

A Robert Browning Story.

Tennyson wore the same hat year
after year, big wide-awake, almost
green with age. How long exactly he
had had this hat nobody seems to
know. His Inverness cloak was not
quite so ancient, but had long since
seen Its best days. The great poet
was scrupulously clean in his person.
but he would not part with his old
clothes.
He seems to have chung as tena-
ciously to his boots as to his hat.
William dillingham; records in his
diary: Robert Browning dined at
Tennyson's last night. Tennyson in

dress boots is forty years DID, Brown

Wnere cyclones originate.

The most violent cyclones originate
In tropical attitudes, in the Atlantic
ocean to the north and east of West
Indian islands, and in the Pacific, In
the China sea and in the neighborhood
of the Philippine islands.
The reason they are SO destructive
Is because they are carried such great
distances by extraneous influences. The
West Indian cyclones are attracted
toward the Gulf stream by the great
volume of heated air which always
hangs over it and follows it's course /;
so the cyclones Of the Pacific follow
the course Of Kuro Siwo, the great
oceanic current which passes around
the East Indian archipelago, the shores
Of China and the Japanese islands.
Cyclones may be anywhere from so
to 500 miles in diameter and may
travel over path 5000 q, miles 1 in e1'

An east wind was blowing when the
Bardsleys awoke on Monday morning.
ALSO they had had few friends in to
a late supper Sunday night, at which
Mrs. Bardsley had concocted one of
her famous rabbits. It was rich and
cheesey, and Mr.. Bardsley had had
two servings in spite of the doctors
orders about light diet.
SO, of course, when Mrs. Bardsley
asked him at the breakfast table for
AN increase in her weekly allowance, it
was not strange that her husband
Should growl out an unfeeling refusal,
adding that there was one other sure
thing besides taxation and death, and
that was woman's inability to be
satisfied.
Now, Mrs. Bardsley had felt her re-
quest so justified since Katie had au-
Dramatically added dollar week to
her own wages, the laundryman, I'M
ashamed, charged her twice as much
for her husbands shirts, and every one
from the garbage man to the gas COM
pany was politely and delicately pick
ing her pocket, that instead of weakly
and miserably crying about his re-
fusal she became angry-in fact, she
got mad clear through for the first
time almost since their marriage.
Look here, Thomas!''' she said
crisply, biting off each word with a
snap that made her husband Jump.
'"Will you tell me why you married
me"
II give up," he retorted. "'Phono-
graphs are cheaper and they occasion
ally say something pleasant"
IF you can't give me enough to
live in peace and comfort without hav-
ing to worry my head off all the time
about money! she finished, ignoring
Ills interruption.
well, Lord knows I'm not made of
money. I've had to dig down in my
Jeans for so many things lately I'm
nearly strapped all the time. If you
tried you could manage differently"
~How?"
"That's up to you. I'd let Katie co."
"And do my own work ~
"Wouldn't kill you, would it?"
Thomas Bardsley, I never did q
days work in my life!"
'Then it's time you were benefiting
by my admirable example and begin
ming"
Mrs. Bardsley rose from the table,
her eyes flashing dangerously. very
well, Thomas, I'll do my own work.
