hardly justify your neglecting to lay
in a supply of coal. Do it now.
And addition of billions of dollars
to the payroll of the country will
not bring down the high cost of living
one cent. In fact, every increase in
wages is passed on down to the man
who pays for the eats, etc.
Another way to get rich quick is
by the sale of marriage certificates
Even the publishers of the said certi-
ficates freely admit that the plan is
perfectly feasible and wonderfully
successful beyond doubt.
And the best time to discourage the
divorce evil is just before the mar
riage license is issued.
If any little, untoward condition
obtains in Kansas, eastern papers play
it up good and strong, making noun
tains out of mo1ehiIls, and at the
same time neglecting mention of more
serious ca1amities closer home. How
ever despite their cautious silence, it
has just leaked out that northern
Michigan is "scairt stiff" over an in
vasion of grasshoppers.

Shade trees generally have made
an extra growth this year and the
foliage in unusually heavy and hence
the strong harvest winds break off or
split down good many branches.
One of our Warnoak elrns, in which
we have taken considerable pride, and
which we would not sell for any price
scarcely less than the value of the

third of its top in this way within the

point under a load of s1eet.
The question has been asked How
many voters will vote the democratic
ticket with the notion that they are
voting for Teddy Roosevelt instead of
Franklin D. Roosevelt, and at least
one paragrapher has answered that
no Republican will do so, though ad-
uniting that some Democrat might
acquire that impression and vote ac-
cording1y. On the other hand, the
writer of the squib is almost ready to
bet his head that a lot of Teddy
worshippers do not know that Ted
dy has "gone vest Cor have forgot
ten it if they ever knew and may be
deceived into voting the national
democratic ticket. Even at that their
action will be as sensible as the ac-
ton of those male and female women
who voted for Wilson four years ago
under the mistaken notion that he was
keeping out of war. furthermore,
if Teddy were a candidate on the
dem ocratic ticket now his position
would not be greatly different from
the one he secured and accepted in
the campaign of 1912 However, he
would not be found taking second
place the ticket. He was never
know to play second fiddle to anybody
(but once) and right there is where
trouble began which led to the split
of 1912. All the talk we heard then
about the Interests controlling the
Taft administration and bulldozing
the Republican national convention
was merely smoke screen to dis
gulse the real ani1nr1s of the rift.
And it was a very efficient disguise
too; good enough to fool thousands
of voters. And who knows that hun
dreds cannot be fooled again!
