A Question of Age

"a mans no older than he fee1s,''
l say, some forty times day; but
my old rusty springs and wheels
show many signs of giving way.
When | was younger / could fall
and not be lained in back or: knee
as springy as rubber ball,yno acci-
dent could mar MY glee. But now if
l fall down the stairs I'm sure to
dislocate my back, and if / stumble
over chairs, a lot of ribs begin to
crack. l sometimes slide on orange
peels, and bust my dome, but still !
cry, "A mans no older than he
feels" which is sort of truthful
lie. I'd have you think I'm feeling
young, and right side up, and good
as new, and SO, you see, Pm giving
tongue to that which is not strictly
true. And yet it's true enough, |
guess. that I'm no older than l feel,
and if my feelings | confess, the tale
would make your senses reel. All,
we'll, ods bones and hully chez, the
facts too sad for tongue or pen, but
rusty graybeards hate to see them
selves outclassed by younger men.
They hate to think that they are
done, mere idle dotards on the stage,
they'd keep their places in the sun
and so repudiate their age. | feel
my sluggish blood CONCEAL. and still
| cry, in accents bold, Men are no
older than they feel, and I'm a sor-
rel three-year old"

Verdict.

Alma c. Smythe. who conducted her
own case against the Wardman Park
Hotel Company to recover 5000 dam
ages for alleged breach Of contract. was
unsuccessful. Chief Justice Mccoy, at
the conclusion Of the plaintiffs case,
directed the jury to find a verdict for
tho company.
Attorneys Daniel Thew Wright and
Philip Ershler. for the company,
pointed out that Miss Smythe had
failed to prove that there was a va
cant room In the hotel when she pre-
sented herself last January. They
also directed the attention of the
court to the fact that the liability of
the innkeeper to take in a traveller.
even II the plaintiff was a traveller.
which was disputed. did not require
the company to furnish accommoda-
ton to her dog. The plaintiff had
brought her dog and insisted that she
be allowed to keep it. She also neg

.DEATH-POST RULING
HOTLy DENOUNCED
Better Let Autoist Hit Poles
Than Pedestrians, Says
House Member.

Representative ~Cyrenus Cole of
Iowa yesterday wrote to Vice Presi-
dent John Hanna of the Capital Trac-
tion Company. commencing that Of
fetal for taking 4 stand in favor of
the so-called death posts that were
used for a few weeks to protect pc
destrians on 14th street.
Referring to the action of the Pub
lie Utilities Commission in ordering
the posts taken down on the day
Senator Balls traffic Investigation
opened, Representative Cole wrote:
The Public Utilities Commission
acted in too much haste. They heard
the voice cf congressman and they
thought it was the whole govern
ment laundering"
Better Target Than Humans.
Mr.. Cole said the commission should
have suggested some other arrange
ment for the protection of persons
before ordering the posts down. Con-
tinuing, he said:
We are told that n few automo-
biles have crashed into those poles
Would it have been better if they
had crashed into flesh and blood:
That might not have damaged the
cars so much, but it would have been
harder on the human beings afoot
1t is not only in this city, but in every
city, town and hamlet that cars run
mad nowadays. Every one wants to
get there although there may be
nowhere in particular"

POLLY HATES
WOMEN

NEW YORK, Aug. 27.--Ernest
Siegfried thinks Loretta must have
