Although he felt that in the course
of his association with such an ami
able lady Miss Mandy Sniff he had
made no exceedingly slight impress
sion, Mr.. Mastus Rasorstrap felt that
he did not have the courage to ask
her face to face to be 'hisn" for life.
So he determined to do this by means
of telephone, and forthwith called up
the residence at which his ladylove
was, employed. rs dat you, Miss
Sniff" he asked when someone
made reply.

reformers and radicals and visiona-

can absolutely control the situation.
Then we may look for the millennium
to be brought about by legislation
right off the bat. The constitution
can then be amended while you wait;
the supreme court and the senate be
abolished; organized labor put in
charge Of all industry; the two-hour
day and three-day week be adopt
ed; bser and wine be made compul-
sorry; luxurious homes and autos pro-
vided for everybody at public ex-
penses with free gasoline; all taxes
abolished; abundant money supplied
to all corners; pleasant weather guar
anteed for picnics and excursions,
with plenty of rain, at just the right
time, for farmers; women made alb
solute equals of men and relieved
of burden of bearing and rearing chill
drsn; high prices for everything peo-
pie sell and low prices for every
thing they buy; all middlemen to be
hung high as Haman; wages and
conditions of labor to be laid down
by the workers; all cantaloupes to be
required to be sweet; all roads to be
first class, with no mudholes or de-
tours; fat men and women and all
old people to be abolished; free coin

oil stock, hot air etc.; all war debts
and all other debts to be wiped out; a
bonus for everybody, to be paid by
movie stars-and so on and so on.

well make this old world perfect. It

In speech to the house of lords
Lord Newton declared that England

tons of SCOT fall on every square

COLORADO POTATO BEETLE
NOW MENiCING FRANCE

Although plaques Of insects that
attack our crops often become grad
ually less destructive, thru adep-
tation of control measures and the
development of liking for the pests
by native insect or bird enemies, they
still exact a huge tribute each year
from the former.
A case in point is the Colorado
potato beetle, which in its eastward
march so years ago threatened to
wipe out the important potato crop.
Its distribution toward the South and
West has been less rapid than
that directly eastward, and it is well
controlled by natural enemies and
the use of ms cticides. The amount
annually expended for arsenical
poisons and their application against
this pest probably reaches 100000
900.
Although the control of this pest
is now well understood by American
potato growers. its recent appearance
in France in the vicinity of Bordeaux
is causing much alarm to French
farmers and entomologists. 1t has
apparently already spread there be-
yond the possibility of determination
and the authorities have been oblig-
ed to take up the question of legal
action to enforce spraying with ar
senicals. The situation is regard
ed as so serious that the establish
ment of zones in which no potatoes
can be grown is being considered.

An Old Fault Finder

An irritable and fault-finding dis
position is often caused by indiges-
ton. A man with good digestion and
bowels that act regularly is usually
good natured. When troubled with
indigestion or constipation take
Chamberlain Tablets. They
strengthen the stomach and enable it
TO perform its functions naturally.
They also cause a gentle movement
