Archduke Joseph, one of the Hapsburgs decided that
his people needed royal leader, and announced him
self head of the Hungarian government The allies said
1--WE don't want any Hapsburgs get out" The royal and
imperial Hapsburg leader gets out promptly 1t is not
so with the unknown and not royal individuals Lenine
and Trotzky in Russia. They made up their minds that
Russia needed leaders from the people, The allies all
sald Get out and this country has soldiers there try
ing to shoot them out. But they do not get out De-
plorable as Russian conditions and horrible as are
the charges made against the bilshevk government it
is quite clear that any government originating with the
people themselves is more powerful than government
of Romanofs or Hapsburgs handed down from above

A GOOD LIFE.

If could know the self-same friends
and life the self-same joys,
If | could live my boyhood Ger with
all the girls and boys,
That made my merry Long Ago, I'd
gladly bear the pain
And sorrow that have come to me to
know the world again.
Whenever | take my years apart and
run their stories through,
find that life's been good to me;
my skies were mostly blue,
And though | have not come to fame
nor much of gold is mine,
The days that God has given to me
have nearly all been fine.
I've laughed my way along through
life despite its bit of care,
Good friends have stood beside me
through the darkness and de-
spair;

l find as Ger my yesterdays let my
memory range
Were | to live my life again there's
little | would change.
l want the same old boyhood friends,
the same good teachers, too,
I'd want the same good mother and
the same father that knew;
And on my second journey through
the smiles and tears of life
I'd want the self-same sweetheart
to come back and be my wife.
When ! am moved by trials here to
grumble and complain,
l wonder if I'd ever care to live my
life again.
And then l find I'd gladly come and
bear life's pain and woe
To claim the days of happiness that
have been mine to know.

A Small World.

I'm restin in the mountains, where
countless people come, to sit beside
the fountains and swallow Adams
rum. From regions superheated they
come, to see the snow; and every day
Pm greeted by friends Of long ago.
All day, like Southey's Kaspar, Pm
sitting in the sun; and every hour
hour some jasper comes to me on the
run. "I'll bet you cannot name me"
exclaims the CHEEKY wight; and, DDS
fish, who can blame me, if he is
guessing right? For have known a
legion whose names l can't recall;
and ip this mountain region | seem
to meet them all. "Your face is quite
familiar" murmur through my hat;
