Old Glory.

A world of laughter, a world of song:
A world of manhood, valiant and
strong.
A world of mothers with love adorned
And children in flowers and lace.
A world of faith and hope and trust
And the light of Gods dear face.
A fighting world. a maddened world,
A world in hell-god's wake.
world of humans twisted and torn
With the crimes that devils make.
wounded world with load of pain
Ankle deep in the blood of the slain.
A world of crosses, row on row.
world of graves where the peoples
grow.
A world of mothers pleading for food
To still the cries of the starving
brood.
A world that faced the dastard's call.
A painting world, an unbeaten world,
A world with it's back to the wall.
And to this dread Gethsemane
Old Glory turned her face.
She has always faced the game,
She's been scanned and SCARED and
CORY,
Yet never once in all her story
Has her scar been one of shame.
And now from far in that distant land,
Ger the sea where the white waves
crept,
She heard the sound of the foemen's
guns,
And the voices of them that wept.
A world that is sad, a world that is
glad,
A world with a beaten foe.
A world that drank and is purified
From a cup of bitter woe.
A world of mothers proud of their
dead.
A world of hungry children fed.
world from monarchy set free,
Smiling again in the love of God
And the sweets of charity.
From war forever a glad surcease,
world of quiet homes and peace.
Then Old Glory smiled;
And packed her grip with the
Stars and Stripes, and homeward
came.

TRADE RUMORS PERSIST
BUZZING AROUND GIANTS

NEW YORK. July 21-The trade
rumor mill works overtime when rain
prevents the Giants from playing ball.
The fact that McGraw has quartet
of sterling catchers when he only
needs three at the out side makes it
certain that there is something brew
ing in the way of swap
Nearly every club in. the league has
been nominated by the reports as
ready to talk business or talking it
with McGraw.
The most persistent talk is that
Claude Hendrix of the Cubs will come
to the Giants.
1t is evident If this be true. that
there will be another club involved in
the deal, because Manager Mitchell
does not need catchers. and really
that is all McGraw has in the way of
trading material Ii is said that
Mitchell will get an outfielder for the
catcher the Giants will give him in
the deal. The report that Eppa Rixey
will come to McGraw by trade be-
tween the Phillies and the Giants still
persists. but not so strong as the Cub
deal.

Counterfeit Fame for the Mediocre

From the New York Herald.
With the development of the many
arts that minister to the wants of this
civilized age that of counterfeiting
has outstripped the rest in the quail
ity of it's products and in the number
of fields in which it finds scope for it's
activities. The making of spurious
coin and currency. once an industry
that gave employment to many skilled
hands, is no longer praeticed to any
extent, but the less hazardous and
equally lucrative counterfeiting OF
silk, food, medicines and antiques
fiourishes as never before. Meanwhile
the business of building up false rep
utations, which began soon after
printers ink took the place of the
laurel wreath as a symbol of fame.
has attained an Importance OF which
few of. the simple minded are fully
aware.
Publicity has long since become a
dominant force in politics. commerce,
the learned professions and even in
social life. And the business of man.
ufacturing and dealing in that pub
licity, once confined almost wholly to
the theatrical profession, has become
an exact science. 1t has been said
that in photography amateurs have
excelled professionals. and the same
is to certain extent true Oh puoilCity
seeking; some Of the most notable
results have been obtained by indi-
viduals working entirely for them
selves. And there is no more fruitful
field for such activities than New
York, a city SO busy and populous
that it has no time to ask questions
and is quite ready to accept new
corners in the public eye on their own
valuation. There are men and women
in the community who have made
their names almost household words
without doing anything that entitled
them to fame.

PENALIZING BACHELORS.
One of the Notable infections oil
the Income Tax,

F. H. Young, in the Providence Journal
Speaking of the income tax, it
should not be forgotten that for the
first time, in national way of speak
ing, there is furnished a first-class
instrument for the imposition of
tax on bachelors. 1t is far from being
the ideal bachelor tax that has been
dreamed of by spinsters and envious
married men, for unfortunately it falls
on spinsters with just as much sever
lty as on bachelors. But still it serves.
The conspicuous fact is that it rec
ognizes bachelors and soaks them fl
nancially on an equitable basis.
And the correlative fact that the
spinsters are taxed equally is really
less of an injustice than it may ap-
pear. Consider. for instance. a bach
elor and spinster, each enjoying an
income Of $500. AS we understand
taxed on $500. But this falls more
heavily on the man than on the wom-
an, If it is true, as we have been
told, that the average woman is much
more ingenious than the average man
in making an income meet expenses.
We sort of gather that a spinster,
without membranes or dependents,
might be considered fairly affluent
with an income Of $500, whereas the
average bachelor on that amount
WOulo De just Scraplng along.
Aside from the question of sex
discrimination that might have been
displayed, but was not, it seems that
the government has shown a mighty
keen intelligence in providing for
married peoples exemptions. A thou
sand dollars is allowed as the exemp-
ton for bachelor or spinster, and
1000 for married people. Herein is
the official destruction of that old and
popular saying that two can live as
cheaply as one" More than any other
single thing. that has probably start
ed off young married couples with an
ingenious and absolute misconception
Of the financial problems of domes-
ITCHY. There may have been a time
when it was true. but it is not SO
today. The government recognizes
the brutal facts when it places the
exemptions at $1,000 and $4,000 re-
spectively. The disagreeakle truth is,
as all experienced persons have learn
ed. that two actually do live twice as
extensively as one, and if they at
tempt to prove that the old saying is
true they only succeed in living half
as well as they did when the two
were one and one.

A Latin Dinner.

From the Columbus Ohio State Journal
The Latin Society held it's annual
banquet at the Chittenden recently.
There was a large attendance and
a most agreeable one, too. The study
of Latin has refining influence on peo-
pie and one could easily feel that in
fluence in these gatherings. There was
more sparkling talk in that company
than we have heard for many a day 1t
was a companionable affair, and while
we had quite forgotten our Latin, we
managed in twenty minutes to talk to
as many lovely young ladies. We in
tend to revive our Latin before the
next meeting comes around Quid rides?
We propose to know enough of the clas-
sic tongue to converse with the presi-
dent of the club. But there is one thing
about Latin that we like supremacy,
and that's the dinners they serve. They
are classic to the finish, even to the
baked ham, which the president, Miss
Landon, improvised for the occasion
When the dinner was over we had to
CO. and so had to miss Prof. Lotham's
fine address, on how to teach Latin. 1t
was praised by everybody.

Automobile Racing.
rom the New York World.

From the New York World.
Racing in power-driven cars has
never been justified by it's results.
even when free from serious accident.
1t has brought out no points in en-
CINE construction and mechanical in
vention that could not have been re-
vealed in safe and ordinary tests. 1t
has ministered not to progress in
motor building and development. but
to mems morbid love of being thrilled
by the daring and peril of other men.
There is no triumph of breeding. of
natural prowess or Of training in the
fact that one factory-made piece of
locomotive machinery can be driven
faster than another. Even the cour-
age for which drivers in a tearing
competition must receive credit is of
the quality rather of squirting
recklessness than Of steady. uplift-
Ing impulse.

COLLARS AND LAUNDRIES.
Some Enlightening Remarks on the
Causes of Saw Edges.

From the Providence Journal.
In a magazine devoted to hard
headed subjects there was a recent
article that was enlightening Most
of us. when our collars and other
come frazzled in shockingly brief
time, are inclined to talk harshly
about the habits of laundries We
say wisely that they use all kinds of
acids in their cleansing processes and
that they run things through mangles
which do all that might be expected
of machines with such a name. Per-
haps we have been unjust. Anyway
these matters have been noticeabl
worse in the last year or two. and it
does not seem probable that laun-
dries are really much rougher than
they have always been. There must
be contributory causes for the condi-
tions.
This authority tells US that when
collars come from the laundry look
ing as if they had been overtaken
by skin disease and our cuffs begin
monitory symptoms of an intent to
bite JUS on the wrist, the laundryman
should not bear all the blame. The
manufacturer is one of the chief fac
tors in this unfortunate situation.
In short. the laundryman is doing
better nor worse; but the manufac-
turer is putting things over on us
that were undreamed of a few years
ago. We quote:
Once upon a time. in the happy
days of yore. the collar maker wove
eighty threads to the inch in warp
and filing, and these collars retailed
mostly at two for a quarter. Oh.
halcyon days! But now many collars
are made from cloth woven with Tx
rs threads to the inch
We can believe it. We can believe
even worse about contemporary col
lars. They come now, as every man
knows. at a quarter apiece instead of
two for a quarter. and of some of
them it may be doubted if they are
made of as substantial goods as the
T2x76 weave. We should say that
many of the collars are now made of
"64-sQuare" goods, which, as every
educated boy in Fall River knows. is
the stuff that is commonly known s
print cloth There are collars, We
venture to say, which are made from
32x36 cloth, which is the common or
garden variety of cheesecloth. And
we pay a Quarer apiece for such col
lars. when a good collar ought to
contain 72x76 goods and a really
first-class one about 80 threads both
ways
But what are the manufacturers to
do when the cotton growers are howl
ing for 80 cents a pound for their
cotton, and would take 40 or even SO
cents a pound without blushing, If
they could get it?
