Where before have ]

VIZ HERE met we? Where before have
" seen your face?
W Was it In Persia Babylon or Thracef
Were you some idol of the populace,
A pampered star whose ecstasy Of grace
Dethroned a queen to put yourself in place7
Did emperors and ministers abase
The knee to kiss thy lavish hem of lace?
o, friend, find in thee the olden trace!
Yea, we were rivals in the fevered race.
One fell behind the other kept the pace.
And who shall perish now to end the chase?
Where met wei Where before have I seen

Political
EcOnOnlY
ID Official economy is a science
little understood. It differs

utCle UNDERSTOOD. IL OlIIerS
from the "exact" sciences in
that hardly any two authorities
agree,
.& You may have wondered at that
If, you may have said, this is SCI
ence, why such confusioni There
are no such divergences in botany.
geology or mathematics. Even in
medicine, which seems a conten-
tious field, the recognized leaders
are not wholly at variance. There
is rather settled and acknowl
edged way to treat diabetes and to
prevent smallpox.
Yet when it comes to Political
Science we find all sorts and condi-
tions Of propaganda; a large sec
ton of thinkers swears by Karl
Marx, and another section swears
at him; some believe in. Henry
George and Single Tax, some are
Monarchists and some Democrats,
some are Communists and others be-
ieve in Capitalism, Greenback Cur
rency, Populism and what not.
!, The average man is tempted to
say that there is no such thing as
Science in Politics.
But such a conclusion is wrong.
There is Science. The trouble IS
that it is one founded and formed
almost wholly upon Experience.
There are laws which govern the
growth of nations, the distribution OF
wealth, the development of govern
ments, and that control labor, cap
ital, national ideals, international re-
lations and so on. But these laws
are so complicated that they can
only be learned from Experience.
They cannot be come at by pure
reasoning, abstract or a priori, be-
cause they presuppose the lnowl-
edge of more elements than any hu-
man mind can embrace.
And it takes more than the ex-
perience of one man, it takes the
experience of generations and OF
myriads of men. This we find in
history and tradition.
Humanity grows. Growth is fluid,
of infinite variety in unity. And no
well-thought-out scheme of any
philosopher, such as Plato, Marx.
Locke, Mill or another, can be i'm
posed artificially, because any new
scheme, if it is to work, must grow
out of the scheme now existing.
The paper schemes of the French
Revolutionists, Of the Bolshevists
and so on fail as schemes, though
they do good as adding to expert
ence.
The only way to be sure OF the
future is to keep firm hold OF the
past, to conserve the gains OF the
present and to make our dreams OF
the future such as can be grown
out of what is and has been. All
real strength comes by growth, not
by convulsion.

A BUSINESS PERSONS HAND

opened, when held naturally, this
showing versatility and self-conf1dence.
The mount of Mars, which lies below
the mount of Mercury (the latter is at
the base Of the little finger), should be
strong and well-marked, because this
indicates courage and willingness to
take risks when necessary.
An exceptionally favorable sign for
a man or woman or business Is tri-
pod, or three-pronged division Of the
line of fate at its end. The line Of
fate runs up the center Of the hand.
This sign shows great success In busi-
ness. If the finger Of Mercury Is un-
usually long, in proportion to the other
fingers. 1t shows acqlisitiveness and
care of money; and is therefore good
sign for a business person. If there
Is short line running upward from
the line Of life to or toward the finger
of Jupiter, which is the index or first
finger, it is sign of ambition that Is
or will be gratitied. Last, look In the
center Of the palm for triangle that

q
Is IS CONSIDERED
UNIUcKY

THE superstition which surrounds
1 the number "13" almost certainly
dates back to the Last Supper" where
Christ and His apostles made thirteen
around the table. The same idea, In
pagan circles, Is to be found In the
Morse story Of Loki's banquet with
the gods In valhalla where Baldur,
who was the thirteenth at the table.
was sentenced to die.
The superstition regarding the num-
Der Is widespread and probably moro
prevalent than any other similar be-
lief. In Turkey the number Is never
mentioned unless it Is absolutely nee
essary. The Italians never use 1t in
making up the numbers Of their lot
teries and the thirteenth card In one
of their games of chance bears the
grim figure of death. In fact the be-
lief that, II there are thirteen at
table one Of the guests Is certain to
die within the year-the connection
with Judas and the Last Supper
Is here clearly recognizable Is
so well established In Paris that
II has given rise to peculiar
profession, that of pique assiette.
These diners in other peoples
houses" are known as the -four
teenth,' 1t being part of their business
to break the spell attendant upon hav-
ing only thirteen at the table.

Gyp Dog rolled over and over on

with mouth wide open and his hind
legs kicking, while with his front
feet he paved the air.
All the hens and chickens In the
barnyard ran to the wire fence and
poked their heads through to see
whatever was the matter with Gyp.
HE has fit or a spasm," said old
Speckled Hen. who was very wise and

He stopped eating and hoped to
the end Of the limb and looked down
at 1t. then he hoped q step back

around just as If he had no thought
Of flying down to the ground.
All this time Pussy Cat nearby and
hidden from Jack Robin was watch
ing every move he made and as soon
as he few down Pussy began to crawl
up behind him back Of the tree.
Gyp Dog began to look pleased, for
while he had no intention of letting
Pussy Cat catch Jack Robin he
thought something very funny was
sure to happen IL he kept still.
Jack Robin hoped close to the big
red object on the ground, hoping all
the time that his sharp eyes were the
only eyes that saw II.
Just as he came close beside 1t and
gave a sharp, quick peck at 1t Pussy
Cat jumped out from behind the tree

Jack Robin flew; he was quite GER

stop until he was far away on a tree,
where he sat spreading his wings and
wagging his head to make sure he was
all together.
Pussy Cat turned right over back
ward, then she jumped up and ran for
the flower bushes by the house. and
that was the reason Gyp Dog laughed
so hard and long as he rolled o-er on
the grass.
"What happened?" asked Pussy Cat
a little while after as Gyp came near
where she was crouching.

pecked at 1t and It burst.
"Didn't you ever see balloon be-
fore, Pussy Catr
"Yes," replied Pussy, but one never
popped right In my face before"
Just then Little Boy ran under
the cherry tree to get his balloon.
He looked at the stick with bit Of
red tied to the end and the big tears
were all ready to fall from his pretty
blue eyes.

THE RIGHT THING
n he
RIGHT TIME
CARRYING PACKAGES
B,MARYM MARSHALL DurFEE

GIT is one Of the wholesome signs
- Of the age" says member Of the
Department Of Agriculture, that peo-
pie are breaking away from the idea
that perfect lady or gentleman never
carried package"
1t Is really hard to remember that
such an opinion ever was held, and
you may be sure II you know anyone
who still clings to the notion that it
Is beneath his dignity to carry a
bundle of any sort that that person is
quite behind the times and has not
kept pace with the times.
The only time when 1t Is bad form
to carry packages or bundles Is when
by doing so you might cause others
annoyance or inconvenience. A wom-
an should bear in mind that IL she Is
going to- be accompanied by man,
good breeding will demand that he
carry any bundles or packages she
may have. Sometimes q married
woman on going out with her hus-
band carries an unnecessary number
Of bundles feeling that she may carry
these herself IL she chooses. To in
sist on doing this will put her hus-
band In a bad light, for he will ap-
pear to have neglected to offer to
carry them.
Again when you are going to be
conveyed to your destination in a
friends automobile you should not
burden yourself with lot Of unweildy
packages unless you have been as
sured beforehand that your friend
wishes to do so. II you have to
travel in a crowded car or train it
is inconsiderate to carry bulky lug
gage that will add to the discom-
fort of the other travellers.
