Says Limburger Cheese Is Foreign Product
They Send 1t to America Because They
Won't Let II Stay In Europe.
BY JOHN r. MEDBURY.

People in the United States are
peculiar; they think nothing is good
unless it's imported. They buy a
hat in Paris and they don't care II
it's ruined so long as the label isn't
hurt.
II they get dress from London
they think 1t isn't genuine unless
it's got a lot of salt water spilled
on IL.
A suit is all right II 1t has a for
eign label in IL, but IL they car
read the label they think it's a
fake.
They like Swiss cheese, and they
don't mind the cheese being made
in America If the holes come from
Europe.
Limburger cheese is a foreign
product. They send IL over here
because they wouldn't let IL stay
over there.
They figure that American
cheese is all right for batting
mouse traps.
They're not going to send all
the way to Europe for meals for
mice.

WHO DONE 1T?
Who Got Up the Fool Duds That
We Must Now
Wear?

With the fins Italian fall that we
have had and its consequent warm
weather suffering man has been in
clined to wonder at the temerlty Of
the party who one time invented
those hard-boiled collars that flow
around your neck like the well known
"silken cord" the English used to use
for hanging aristocrats.
Why should a man have to wear
hard collars when the weather is soft? :?
Why should he wear hard ones at all7
Why isn't clean negligee better than
bedraggled and sweat soaked full
dress? We don't know-but It isn't
Another thing; what about pants,
alias trousers7
Every civilized army--if there is
such a thing as n civilized army-has
adopted the knickerbockers and put
tees as the most comfortable and use
full thing known to tailoring. Bust
ness-aye, even life in general-isn't
much but a battle, and why can't a
fellow be permitted the same comfort
on Felix street as he is in the
trenches? Long hose would do In
place of puttees--a sort OF business
golf array-and then the male Sec
tion wouldn't have to be worrying
about Knees"
Who invented the scheme that pro-
vides the same pocketless black swal-
lowtails for both social lions and un-
dertakers, and elk hats that aren't
good for anything except to keep a
handkerchief in, there being scarcely
any other place TO put it.
These questions occasionally come
to mind when one is brought face to
face with such problems.

THE STEADY GRIND
Ii Is What VIII Push the st. Joseph
Young Man TO the
Front.

Just a few young st. Joseph men
are following the path that will lead
to future success--just a few who
realize that the fellow who knows
how to, gets there in the end.
Some people are always looking for
skyrockets. They believe human af-
fairs are guided by the genius of
luck. They believe in Santa Claus
for adults. They expect to wake up
some morning and find themselves
wealthy, famous and powerful. But
the chariots of fire never appear. The
golden lands that lie at the end of the
rainbow are never reached. Across
their armament the meteors Of great
success never flash.
If there is anything that we'll
balanced man over 80 ought TO know
is that genius IS generally nothing
but hard work disguised in fancy
clothes.
It's the steady grind day after day
in the face OF ups and downs that
makes a fellows dreams come true.
Constant application, persistency
and dogged determination are the
qualities that win at last.
Shaking dice with fate is a FOOLS
game. History records the victories
OF no man who was not a day laborer
in llfe's harvest field.
Good luck is the rarest flower that
blows, and it blossoms mostly in the
gardens Of imagination.
If your rival is a steady grinder,
look out for him.

Story Of a Doq.

Marathon races in the woods will
never become universal for the reason
that speed and stamina like that Of
Buell. CrannelI's dog are not universal
in the four-footed hunters" says War
wick S. Carpenter. secretary Of the
conservation commission. "Mr. Gran
nell lives at West Glens Falls, and
while hunting near there recently his
dog picked up fox track. The dog
was picked up next day near Gran
berry lake, more than seventy miles
away.
Accounts do not state whether the
dog was still going strong or whether
he might have taken the fox back to
Mr.. Crannell but simply that identi6-
cation Of the dog was made by the
conservation commission license tag
and that Mr.. Crannell went after the
dog.
''The moral of all this Is that IL one
owns dog good enough to run a fox
through two counties she should sure
ly be protected by an Identification
disk."-New York Times.

vERMlN OLD PEST or ARMIES
Reference to Them Found In Writings
81 the Romans, and In English
Literature.

The newspapers have had much to
say about the "delouslng" OF the re-
turning troops. Philip Hale writes In
the Boston Herald. The word Is not
pretty one and II is not to he found
In the dictionaries. but the war has
brought with II many new words, some
OF which will disappear, some Of which
will soon be regarded as orthodox and
of good and regular standing.
No soldier need he ashamed OF nee
essary submission to the process. IT
may console him to recall the case Of
Thomas Otway. an Oxford man. the
author OF "Venice Preserved" and
THE Orphan" As a cornet in a regi-
ment Of horse, he Joined in 1878 the
army under Monmouth In Flanders.
II was reported that he came back
from Flanders "mangy and covered
with vermin."< Rochester tainted him
with this In his Session Of the Poets"
II should also be remembered that
when the troops we're disbanded and
recalled. the money voted by the COM
mons for their payment was misap-
propriated. The soldiers were paid
only by debentures, and the credit of
these was so low that they were hard
~ salable.
1t was observed in the sixteenth CEN
fury that 'lice cometh also Of that
cloth that Is trained in the wool with
the fat or grease of horse or OF
swine. and therefore the northern
cloths worn OF a sweating body do
breed lice in IL hours" The "humor"
Of an individual had much to do with
the character Of the pest. Lice gen.
dered of sanguine humor were red and
great; of phlegmatic. white; Of choler-
ic, yellow, long. swift and sharp; Of
melancholic, sshen colored, lean and
slow in moving. Anyone of these pests
"grieveth more in the skin with the
feet and with creeping, than he doth
with bitin. And the leaner
that louise Is. the sharper she biteth
and grieveth." There were many ap-
proved remedies even in the elder
Pliny's time, thus: 1.-THE old skin or
slough that snakes do cast off in the
spring, whosoever drinketh in his or
binary drink, IL will kill all the YER
min Of the body within three days"
