GIVING AWAY THE BRIDE

There are many stages of ciyih zation and 1t would seem various de- grees of barbarian. But between the original system of marriage by cap ture and the later and supposedly more advanced marriage by purchase there would seem to be none but Hob- sons choice.
 With the change from the wan dering life to the domesticity of farm and fireside. the previously burden some and obnoxious daughter came to be considered an asset that could. when the time came, be exchanged for so many head of cattle or other desirable acquisitions.
 It was a matter of barter. pure and simple. Only few years ago, among the Brahmins of India, up to the mo- ment that the father of the prospec- 1 tive bride led her to the bridegroom saying, T have no longer anything to do with you and I give you up into the power of another" there was still 1 time for bargaining by suitors who had more than the bridegroom to of | fer for her.
 So the charming custom of giving away the bride is another of those
 survivals at whose origin and sig
 nificance we slyly close an eye and
 say Tout cela est change!"

 Len and Trot, however, both were aroused to an appreciation that you can fool some of the people some of the time and all of the people some of the time. but you can't keep all the people on a diet all of the time

THE GOOD OLD TIMES

There are still some folks who sigh for good old times. But who would welcome them were they to come back?
 Subtract from modern life f\> movie, porcelain bathtubs, vacuum sweepers, electric lights, instantane- ous hot water and telephones.
 Take out phunographs, motor cars. electric irons and washing machines and stnitary plumbing.
 Banish these things and you have again what people like to call good old times.
 Who really wants the good old times back?
 Occasionally cynic declaims against the modern improvement. but he never means it. The modest home of the average middle class American is infinitely more comfortable than the mansion of those other days called the good old times.''

A long sought fertilizer has at las been secured, after 20 years of re search, which will slowly and surell extirpate the weeds, while permitting the grass to grow freely. Ammonium sulphate is found to be more advan,' tageous than sodium nitrate. which tends to create an alkaline condition of the soil, especially favorable to thu propa gation of weeds. Ammonium sulphate produces reversed conditions and the grass flourishes and tn, weeds are so weakened that they ar, crowded out.

CHICAGO DRUGGISTS LIMITED ID 35,000
 ''P|NTS" EACH DAY
IRepubIIcan A. p. Leased wlrel

CHICAGO, April 2.-Approximately 1,600,000 gallons of wine and whisky must satisfy the medicinal require ments of 3,000,00 Chicagoans each year, according to the order that went out today from the office of Ralph w. Stone, dry commissioner of the central department, and prohibi tion director for Illinois, after he re- turned from a conference at Washing ton. This amount was deducted from the allowance to each druggist. It amounts to some 35.000 pints a day, in addition to a bottle of beer with each meal that may be allowed on prescription.
 Each of the 200O druggists in Chi cago may withdraw 200 gallons of whisky and 100 gallons of wine every three months. The commissioner of internal revenue has announced that this quantity could be increased if druggists could show they really needed more liquor to supply the de- mand. As probably half of the in habitants would not use much if any liquor because of dislike, high price or lack of prescription, it is hoped that the allotment will more than suf- flee those who use it.

 The Trouble Twins of Russia, after crying to knock the organized gov ernments of the rest of the world for a goal for something like three years, would now like to call off the fight ing and play Button Button Who's Got the Cash Customer instead.

Inquire Within , It's a long proletarlat that has no turning. The Russian "prolets" have decided that it's about time to eat.
 The share and share alike form of living sounded great, but three years of searching in vain for something to share will wreck most any theory.
 
 Lenine did his best to carry out the fifty fifty idea. He and Trotzky would get three square meals day and, true to the Soviet policies, issue public statement to the masses i'm mediately after each meal telling them exactly how the food tasted and assuring the peepul that if they held out a few years longer they would he a hla fn ifrr Stafan1anf

GEMS ARE CHEAP IN TELLS

If you want to buy quart of dia- monds for a 1ollar or two, go to Tiflis.
 Tiflis is the capital of Georgia, one of the new republics that have risen in the Caucasus on the ruins of the Russian empire. The value of the Georgian ruble Is worth hardly any thing at all. But the dollar has such abnormal purchasing power in this nation of lost values that it seems less like money than magic. You can get a fine dinner in Tiflis for 10 cents and rent a room in the best hotel for s1 a month
