SPRING FEVER.

When the blue gets back in the skies once more
And the vines grow green round the kitchen door,
When the roses bud and the robins come
l stretch myself and say: "H hum!
l ought to work but | guess l won't
Though some want riches today l DON'T
This looks to me like the sort of day
That was made to idle and dream away"
When the sun is high and the air just right,
With the trees all blossomy, pink and white,
And the grass soft as a feather bed
With the white clouds drifting just overhead,
l stretch and yawn like school boy then,
And turn away from the walks of men
And tell myself in shame faced way:
I'm going to play hockey from work today"
Here is morning too rare to miss,
And what is gold to day like this,
And what is fame to the things I'll see
Through the lattice-work of a fine old tree?
There is work to do but the work can wait
There are goals to reach, there are foes to hate
There are hurtfu things which the smart might
say
But nothing like that shall spoil today
To-day I'll turn from the noisy town
And just put all of my burdens down;
I'll quit the world and it's common sense,
And the things men think of consequence,
To chum with birds and the friendly trees
And try to fathom their mysteries;
For here is day which looks to be
The kind can fritter away on. me-"

WHAT is NEEDED.

Those who believe that there is a royal road to
prosperity, either personal or national would do well
to forget it and go back to earnest work.
To believe that a paternalistc interference in
business on the part of the government be sub
stituted for efficient personal endeavor is heresy.
To believe that the fiat of a walking delegate to
"cut production" can be made substitute for IAN
honest days work for honest days pay in
bringing prosperity and happiness, is a FOOLS
dream.
More business in government and less govern
ment in business" is a badly needed reform.
We should repeat the Golden Rule and 20 to
work. Just enough government is needed to re-
strain the lawless and guide the machinery of gov
eminent That with a righteous public sentiment
which will curb the indeeently avaricous will ac-
complish more than multiplicity of boards and
commissions and committees to smell around

You must experiment to find out
just how much of this gum arabic

way to take the taste out Uf mouldy

sugar and sirup into vinegar. They
belong to the vegetable kingdom

a plant is alive. The "bees" can

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, March 23.-Assertions
that British government holdings
of wheat would be sufficient to the
end of the season had a depressing
effect today on the wheat market
Prices closed unsettled, &c to
IL C net lower, with March $3.50 rs
and May s1.41A to $1.41 Y. Corn
lost NC to / n C and oats 1ac to
&c. In provisions the outcome
was unchanged to 15c down.
Bears in wheat quickly took adj
vantage of the outlook that there
would be little further buying for
Great Britain until the new crop
was ready. Favorable crop reports
tended also to weaken the market,
the general tenor of advices being
that likelihood of any disaster from
the green bug pest was about over.
During the first half of the day,
before such news was factor,
prices had an upward slant owing
largely to hope that export bust
ness would develop, .g
In addition gossip was circulated
that much of the available supply
of durum wheat at the head of the
lakes had been purchased for ex-
port. After midday, however, the
disposition to sell was general.
Despite curtailment Of receipts,
corn and oats gave way to the in
fluence of wheat weakness.
Provisions were inclined to sag

UNCLE WIGGILY AND SUSIES

Once upon a time, as Uncle Wig.
gliy was about to hop away from
his hollow stump bungalow to go
look for an adventure in the woods
or fields he saw Susie Littletail, the
rabbit girl, running down the path.
"Wait a minute! Wait minute.
Uncle Wiggily!" called the little
rabbit girl, waving something shiny
at the bunny gentleman. II want to
show you this nice present before
l go to school,"
well, I'm glad it's something
nice" thought Mr.. Longears. II was
afraid Susie was coming to tell me
that Baby Bunty was getting fussy
again and that I'd have to play
blocks with her"
Uncle Wiggily waited for Susie to
catch up to him, and then the let
tie rabbit girl held out a nice, new
shiny pencil for him to see.
my daddy bought it for me at
the ten and thirteen cent store"
said Susie. See, Uncle Wiggily, it's
a silver pencil, and when you twist
the little knob on top the piece Of
lead comes out so you can write
with it,"
Susie twisted her knob on top,
