keeper that he would have to sleep with
another man, who had already retired. The
sleepy man went to the room and after
undressing started to get into bed, but just
then the man in bed had an awful fit and
those fits would come back every time the
out of bed man started to get in bed. The
latter, finally suspecting the cause, waited
for another fit to begin, when he seized a

COLORED MAN IS Tagging


co1oRED MAN IS Tagging
And this spirit of combining capital re-
minds us Of how effectively successful it has
worked with the japanese in Seattle Though
an apparently disposed people, strangers in a
strange land confronting opposition and race
prejudices on all sides, yet by combining
their small earnings for be it remembered,
a Jap would work for less than any man,
they are now strong factors in the CONNER
cia world of Seattle and almost absolutely
control the vegetable situation of this great
busy, bustling city. And the success of the
Japanese reminds us that within the gates
of Seattle there are almost 5000 native-born
colored citizens, 1000 less than the Japanese
colony of the city, and yet among that
number there are but four commercial insti-
tutions operated by colored men and women.
The great majority of the colored citizens
are wage earners and if they would only
combine their earnings, they, too, could
establish business enterprises, just as have
organized labor and the japanese colony.
"Let s get together and do something" is
heard wherever two or more colored men get
together, but they do not do it and they as
a result get less consideration than any other
distinct class by the moving spirits of this
rapidly growing city. This is worthy. of
your prayerful consideration, my brother.
OPEN SALOON SLEEPS
When and where the open saloon was
born in the United States is probably an
open question, but it surely was born and
after reaching maturity it was not long in
begating sufficient number Of offsprings to
envelop the whole country and so numerous
did the tribe become that it was thought for
many years that it was irresistible, but while
the mills of the gods grind slow, yet they
grind exceedingly fine and after years of
continued fighting against Gen. Open Saloon
and his forces on the part of the army under
Gen. Good Citizen, the former met his
Waterloo July LIST and for the time being is
resting in durance vile, though the friends
Of Open Saloon are not leaving a stone
unturned to rescue him from his perilous
situation. 1t is not a safe bet that the
Open Saloon is gone to never return, because
the Supreme Court has not been heard from
and that august assembly does not always
take the good of the people into considera-
ton when it rules, but seems to make it's
ruling from the standpoint Of giving en-
ployment to the unemployed legal fraternity.
No form Of vice in which the American
people have become stepped ever proved
hundredth part as pernicious as has the open
saloon, and yet men and women who were
fully aware of it's degenerating influence,
supported it because it meant few lousy

From the back entrance of Mrs.
Portmoreland's mansion, the house
maid emerged at one o'clock on Thurs
day for her afternoon off. She was
a tall, dark, slender girl, neatly and
stylishly dressed in navy blue serge
and brown squirrel scarf wrapped
closely around her throat.
It was time for her new spring
clothes and she was filled with an
anticipatory thrill which only the
prospect Of shopping can give wol
man.

who gave her attire an appraising
look and then haughtily said, "Down

asked the saleswoman.

eyed at the cheap imitation of her
self and then she swooned away
When she regained her senses she
tore off her attire and gave it to the

CIDER ELUDES THE LAW.

Cider is not malt, vnous fermented or distilled
hquor and therefore the bonedy law does not apply ia
It, But hard" cider is fermented liquid and it is said
doth work ferment in the brain that is essentially al
coholic.
1t because Of its initial innocence that cider is spared
and that its subsequent waywardnes is so sly and
clandestne that it cannot be traced with sufficient accu
racy to justify the laws interference? Or is it because
the orchardist and farmer given as he to prohbory
principles, regards his homemade tippIe as harm
less and nnOcuous indulgence and demands Difference
toward it from law-making bodies?
The ntoxicaton of hard cider is largely hearsay con-
clifton How many have really seen much less felt such
nebriacy? The instances exotic and vague as the
stories hear about hasheesh Hard elders reputation
is somewhat smrched These aspersions may be, for
the most part unjust; and any rate if hard cider
shows disposition to take up the work of its more ro-
bust alcoholic associates and congeners there is always
the remedy of an amendment at hand

THE PRESENT JOYS

If you cannot see the beauty in the
rising Of the sun,
If you cannot romp with children and
enjoy their bit of fun,
If the wife who walks beside you
isn't all the world to you,
If you cannot be content with the
friends you know are true,
Then you never will be happy though
you reach life's niche,
You would still be melancholy should
tomorrow make you rich.
If you cannot find the splendor in the
little you. possess,
If you spurn the honey sweetness in
your baby's glad caress,
If the little home you're keeping isn't
ringing now with glee,
All in vain must be your dreaming
of the joys that are to be;
If to all that now should please you
you're Indifferent and cold,
You would find yourself unhappy
should tomorrow bring you gold.
If you're putting off your gladness
to some distant future day,
If your blind to all the roses that
now bloom along the way
And you cannot find this morning
some good reason for a smile.
You will never be contented in life's
golden afterwhile;
For the joys of life surround you
love and claim them while you
can,
For it's now that you are learning
how to be happy man.

Women of Today
BY MAY CERT

The air was balmy with the
warmth of spring when Mrs. Port.
moreland wrapped her scarf closer
around her throat.
Spring is here" she thought. "It
is now too warm for straw. I must
get either taffeta or velvet hats"
When she appeared at the store at
which she was a valued customer the
buyer of the costume department,
hanked by a competent saleswoman,
rushed to do her bidding.
81 want something smart in black"
she announced.
Get the Colson model in MORE.
The one with the 18-inch width skirt
and the white hand-tucked vest" the
buyer directed her confederate.
Within few seconds the MORE was
whisked from the case in which ii

ing or even afternoon wear. So
smart. Really tres, tres chic. The
lines are stunning. Make you look as
slender as a sylph. Combien? 1t is
very reasonable, don't you think?
Only a hundred and seventy-five."
After trying on about fifty gowns
of different styles and lines, Mrs.
Portmoreland decided upon the black

Then smart turban Of jade green
hair-cloth was purchased for thirty
five after an hour and a half in the
millinery department.

re-entered her limousine, "drive to

the couture, "Mrs. Caruso's hair is
bobbed and / want mine like that es
pecially as l had the flu and my hair
is falling out dreadfully."
"That's what they all say" the
coiffeur murmured to himself as he
got busy with the shears.
When Mrs. Partmoreland's hus-
band took one glance at her, he ut
tered one scathing sentence, "Women
are getting crazy these days" He
out of the house and imme.
diately went to see his lawyer.

PRESIDENT BY ONE VOTE

PRESIDENT BY ONE VOTE
The cynic who maintains that cleo
ton returns are a foregone conclu4
sion will do well to recall some of the
close decisions that have taken place
in this country. Three men--Aaron
Burr, Tilden and Wade have missed
the presidency Of the United States
by a single vote. In the tie-up be-
tween Tilden and Hayes, Congress
had to appoint a special commission
of fifteen men-fve from the Su-
preme Court, five from the Senate
and five fro mthe House of Repre-.
sentatives-to decide the motter
Hayes won by vote of eight to sew
en-
The case of Aaron Burr and Jeffer-
son is better known. Each had sew
enty-three ELECTORAL votes, although
both were from the same party. JEFF
ferson won the tie and became Pres
dent of the United States, while
Burr became Vice-President, as the
rule then was. Because of the active
opposition of Alexander Hamilton to
Burr in this and other political con-
tests, the tragic duel at Weehawken
took place. Burr's later attempts to
found an independent government in
Mexico read like wild romance.

Judging from the high cost of tur-

ABOUT TURKEYS

Back in We good old Miles Standish
days the Puritans grabbed the old
muzzle-loader, went back in the rear
yard and shot enough turkeys to dec
crate the mahogany for a regular
Thanksgiving, But today old H. C. of
L., grabs the musket, holds up the
Puritans, and shoots up the prices of
turkey.
A good pound of turkey these days
is as expensive as Shylock's pound of
flesh in 1.-THE Merchant of Venice"
it isn't 1.-THE Merchant of
