'Tf Winter Comes

'Tf Winter Comes'
II my temper's rather huffy and my
nose is more than snuffy-
II my breath Is short and puffy and
my conversation stuffy,
Shall my verse be sweet and fluffy?
Ted Robinson In Tho
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Yes. Though sad and atrabilioua, your
duty, willy-nilly,
calcimine the lily
With snappy song and silly.
"It was extremely foolish" Mr..
Victor s. Yarros writes The Evening
Post, "for any syndicate to engage Mr..
Wells to cover tho conference. He
can but darken counsel and confuse
shallow minds. The need Is for re-
porters and interpreters who see
things as they are" We disagree ut
terly with Mr.. Yarros's oracular first
and second sentences. 1T was, We
think, wise for syndicate to engage
Mr.. Wells to write about-not to cover
the conference. And at the worst
he might bo able to illuminate coun-
sci and make little clearer the murk-
mess Of our minds, pitiably few of
! which are not shallow.

When Postmaster Hays suggests
that private houses in New York be
equipped with receptacles for mail, he
is radical; but when he hints that
house numbers should be visible and
legible he strikes at the very founda-

addressing his tenants on the occasion
Of the coming Of age Of his son Lord
Francis Cavendish. Landlords and
tenants have lived on terms Of mutual
trust and affection. I fear. however,
that the state of things Is passing
