Riches

"If | had loads of money ex-
istence would be sunny" the
poor fish sadly means; "I'm GER
tainly disgusted with being. al
ways busted, when other men
have bones. The rich man has
no sorrow; if he should try to
borrow a grief 'twould be in
vain: for. money is the basis of
all the joy that chases around
this mundane plain" But when
a man has riches his walls, in
dismal pitches. assail the gates
of morn; of all men who have
anguish. of all who wilt and
languish. he seems the most for.
lorn. All kinds of grafters fret
him, the tax collectors get him,
and leave him sick and sore; his
pet investments fzzle, his tears
fall ina drizzle, and life becomes
a bore. The people tire and irk
him, because they try to work
him, and rend him from his
kale; he has no friends to cher
ish, all his affections perish, and
all his longings fail. OF all the
idle dreamers. and all the ruth
less schemers he is the proper
prey; the robbers make him
tremble, and gold brick men as
semb1e around him on his way.
The hates of men revolt him,
the eyes of envy jolt him, and
everywhere he wends he meets
the whining needy, the covetous
and greedy, but seldom meets
with friends. And when we
envy riches, while digging use
ful bitches or saving helpful
wood, our taste must be la
mented: SO let us be contented,
and labor and be good.

FAVORS ARMS PARLEY.
John Temple Graves Says It Will
Supplant Versailles.

John Temple Graves delivered an adj
dress on "Armageddon'' last night in
the reception hall OF the University
Club. in which he declared that the
coming limitation of arms parley, in his
opinion, would shape and guide Gods
purpose and promise of peace on
earth"
Mr. Graves drew a series of graphic
word sketches of the world war and
it's exactings in misery. agony and suf-
fering to mankind. He drew. up to a
climax built upon the Limitation of
arms parley. Indications, he pointed
out, betokened that forces of good and
evil pitted against each other in world
wide conflict took form in the hostility
of capital and labor, in the menace of
anarchy to liberty and freedom and in
various other phases.
He concluded with the statement that
the parley would supplant the peace
conference at Versailles, and that
where the first gave fertile field to jeal-
ousies and selfish desires. the second
would find good will in the minds of
men and would lead up to the fulfill
ment of Gods promise of peace on
earth"
