explanation of why the world will not
be destroyed by tidal wave next
Wednesday In accordance with the
prediction Of Guiding astronomers
is given by Prof. w. A. Cogshall, head
Of the astronomy department Of In

not take seriously the statement that

the Aforesaid wave. The noted astron

"Tides are caused only by the attrac

THIS HELPS A LOT

We were never Interested much in fashions
until this spring but we began 10 sit up and take
notice when the wife said that she had 10 have
some clothes, and that everything Was SKY high.
In the evenings she retaiIed 10 ua her dlgcov-
cries from the fashion magaznea, and things came
out just fine. . ......-s = .-. ..-......-..... ...
II seems that the designers this spring de-
womens clothes generally should III rather than
flow. .e. g..
Maybe that doesn't mean much 10 you; 1t
didn't TO us, until the wife disclosed the glad news
that his meant that her last year and year before
suits and dresses and things would have enough
material in them to remake into new wardrobe as
good as anybody's 'boughtcn' one, and with one
1.-THE the cost.
Hip! Hip and three more for the highly honor
able designers
With the old garments and few packages Of
dyes, and some new trimmings, and lace, and cro-
cheted doc dads, we are going to shine like an
Easter morn out our way, and have enough left
to buy dad straw hat and pair Of low shoes.
But we hate to dwell on the dismal future when
fashion takes another shift and skirts must be
blk and free, and coats must wave and flap, and
waists must balloon and bulge.
Because there amt going to be no core to our
wardrobe apple by the time the wife gets through
making big skirts into little ones.
Maybe they'll keep em skinny. and cut EN-
shorter; pray brother, pray.

WITH THE EDITORS
ANOTHER THRONE HAS CRUMBLED

After having held the state in the palm OF his
h&ne, dominated it's legislators, trcked the farm
ees and few others into donating ali the way
from $1,000 to 10000 each, Czas Iownley has
found himself slipping into the discard. !.
Peraagss no other man in the history Of the
whole northwest was looked up to with 80 much
confidence as this tall, thin Creosus, who un-
loaded socialism it's enemies and made them like
it~for time; who s1fn9-siamrNed Twin City busi-
ness men out Of \ quarter of a million and left
them no come hack; who tried the famous "flier
in fIaz," failed, was adjudged bankrupt and beat
honest creditors out OF 10000; who was At one
time state organizer for the socialists who never
earnestly tried TO make an honest dollar in his life
and who never made a succesa of anything in his
life until he organized q new political party.
With an iron nerve, shifting eye and grand
stand display of orat0ry, he became idozed by
thousands, No sooth-saycr Of oIden times, black
witch Of darkest Africa, or Confusion jade juggler
ever 10 beguiIcd, dominated and pIundered their
ignorant, simpe-Mindcd followers AZ did this col
losaal buffer beguIe, dominate and punder an
intelligent shrewd and prosperous people Of pro-
greasivc state #aI
He was both oracuIar and ridiculous and keen
Judge Of human nature. But, his ghrewdness was
light and "payed to the galleries" at all public
functions. On more than one occasion he has ap-
peared in the audience which he was about to ad-
dress and, from some unsugpecting individual,
borrow white collar, shirt or coat and appear on
the platform with patched knees on his trousers
and his feet showing through his shoes. On these
occasions his speech that Of the down-trodden,
enslaved tiIer Of the soil It is said this also was
his apparel and vernacular, when he made the
much advertised visit to the nations capital
Yet, when seen in western Montana, Nebraska,
Texas or New York, he is again the suave promo
ter, Immediately dressed, with the bearing Of a
Pittsburgh millionaire. He writes checks for thou
sands which are always honored. When not barn
storming against "Big Biz" and counting checks
for league membership, store stock bank stock,
etc, or planning more radical legislation, he adj
journs to his country mansion at Minnetonka.
Alas! he may still write checks for thou
sands, possibly million or two; he may still ap-
pear in immaculate apparel-there is need for
little else. But what the maid Delilah did to an
