The next morning the absent presi-

ferers that they could buy hay In Kan

He sent out IL such kilograms. Be-

Too Much Weather

There's TO much weather, men con-
Tess. when they consider, con and pro,
how much Of anguish and distress the
weather burdened people know. The
weather doesn't often take q moderate
or middle line; all records it sets out
TO break, which makes us murmur
and reptne. The sun of Summer
brightly beams, and that would cheer
US up q lot, but that 1t travels to
extremes. and shines until we're melt
ing hot. Wed have the sunshine
measured out by careful hands, through
out the year." I've often told the fore
cast scout who does long range pre-
dieting here. "A little suIisfines very
we'll but when 1t comes in carload
lots, 1t makes us weep, it makes us yell,
1t makes us look like Hottentots" How
often we've beheld the plain all parch-
ed and baked beneath the sun; we
begged j. Pluvius for rain, sent him
petitions by the ton. We had In mind
q steady shower, the water soaking
IN the soil; II 1t would rain that way
Of toll. At last 1t would begin TO
rain, from sullen clouds piled over
head; The elements have gone in
sane" how often, YEARLY, we've said.
When once the rain had made a start,
1t had forgotten how to stop; it broke
the trusting farmers heart, and washed
away his growing crop. When Winter
comes along, on time, we're glad to
think We may be cool, exulting in the
frost and rine like little children out
of school. But Winter comes in with
a roar, and gives the world an angry
whack, and piles big snowdrifts at your
door, and busts the plumbing In your
shack. And then you wall and rend
your hair, while shrieks the tempest,

SUB ROSA
When No Means Yes.

A gentleman was engaged IN serious
battle the other day With young
woman who said mo" TO his proposal
Of marriage. He insisted that her mo"
meant 'yes"-and the police were called
in to settle the dispute. The gentle
man was finally convinced that the
young lady meant what she said
Mark Twain in Tom Sawyer" re-
cites an adventure, which Tom had
while whitewashing the fence around his
Aunt Polly's house. Tom had been a
bad boy and his aunt punished him
by making him brighten UP her fence
on Saturday afternoon, instead Of LETT
ting him play with the boys,
Tom finally persuaded Jim, the little
colored boy to help him out, but Aunt
Polly discovered this and put an end
to 1t. :
Other boys came around to make fun
of Tpm-but remained TO plead for the
pleasure of helping him ply his brush.
Then Tom made great discovery. He
found out that when he told the other
boys he would never, never let them
whitwash the fence, they Immediately
developed an intense desire to do so.
For the privilege Of working for just
o little while, the boys gave him mar
bles, half an apple, a piece of blue bottle
glass to look through, q fragment OF
chalk, brass doorknob, dead rat and
a string to swing it with, couple of
tadpoles and many other knick-knacks.
If Tom hadn't run out of whitewaSh
he would have bankrupted every boy in
the village. AS 1t was, he did very
little whitewashing himself.
Boys and girls and men and women
adore Tom as q character, but women
have suffered on his account. We read
in novels and hear it said on the stage,
that when a woman says mo" to mans
proposal, she really means Eyes"
Woman Is represented as living par
edox who tries to make herself dificult
to attain-just as Tom Sawyer schemed
TO have the boys beg to whitewash the
fence, while pretending to refuse them.
Some men who believe that woman's
mo" means yes" frequently make
themselves Objectionable, as did the
man who had to have the police ex-
plain the lady's attitude to him. They
keep on proposing In the belief that
they will finally persuade her to say
exactly what she means.
I suppose those women who have
suffered on account of Tom Sawyers
discovery ought to hold Mark Twain
accountable. But Mark Twain, after
ell, was humorist. Those men who
think n woman's mo- means Yves"
should remember that.

news story in the days before he came
to Congress.
on Thursday morning, August 2,
Louie arrived at his office on the Hill to
find q telegram from the president OF
the Indiana Farm Bureau urging him TO
use his influence with the heads Of the
three big railroads which operate In his
State toward reducing freight rates on
farm produce badly needed In the
stricken area.
Within an hour or 30 the Hoosier
Representative was at the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
There he was told that while the
commission had no authority to order
such q reduction In rates, 1t was sym
pathetic, and If he could persuade the
railroads to act, the commission would
remove all technical restrictions.
So Louie got busy. He remembered
that he had seen two high officials Of
one railroad in the building few min
utes before. These he found and he
outlined to them what he wanted. They
were persuaded to get In Geographic
communication with the president Of
the road Immediately.
Then Louie started out to commune
cate with the presidents Of the two
other roads.
So successful was he that before the
day drew to a close he had assurance
from two railroads that the rates to the

ring circumstance that joys the MEM

congeniality, is felt wish never to
see the other, or desire to know him,
or her, more intimately.
Impressions are inevitable. They
supply q basis for judgment We judge
others by the impressions they make
upon US, and they Judge us in the same
way. This judgment can be swayed
toward like or dislike by comments
made to us by others or made by others
to them. 1t takes a strong personality
to be impartial, and to insist. that the
impression the person makes upon us
shall be the one source of our character
estimation. We should be sufficiently
persistent in treasuring good impress
sion received, so that we shall not allow
ourselves to be swayed against another
or have our estimation biased unfavor-
ably by what another says.
As for the impression we make on
others, It Is partly of our own volition.

ample, q petulant mouth may curve

nature that has allowed itself to be
touchy even to the point of shrewish-
ness.
1t is an impression we have made
upon ourselves and we cannot avoid its
showing itself to others.
On the other hand, a winsome mouth
does not need to smile In order for it
to tell of sweet nature. It bespeaks
q kindlinesS that has been nutured by
beautiful thoughts. Z
It makes us think twice, and wonder
what we give to others on which they
can base their Judgment of us. Do
we show wisdom and friendliness in our
attitude-wisdom in not countenancing
wrong when we see it, and friendliness
toward the best? What sort of an i'm
preston do we give others whereby
they come to remember us? Are we
willing to be judged by what we have
made Of ourselves?

Finds Wonderful Place.
It's well to put one on his own,
For them he learns to stand alone.

When Impy, the black Chipmunk,
awoke very early in the morning, it
took him a few minutes to remember
where he was. Instead of being down
under ground, as he always had been
every morning before, his bedroom had
wooden walls. Finally, 1t came to him
how he had started out to see the Great
World and how just before dark he
had found nest in q hollow post Of
the old fence. Impy scrambled up to
the hole just above him and looked out.
jolly, round Mr.. Sun was Just begin
ming his climb up in the blue, blue
sky and there was every promise that
the day would be fine. Impy climbed
to the top of the post and there very
carefully made his toilet. When this
was finished it came to him that he
was hungry; so he scampered down to
look for something to eat.
Impy stayed there for two or three
days. It was q very nice place. But
IL didn't quite suit him. It was all
right to stay in for a while, but 1t was
no place for q regular home.

BIZ DONALD A. CRAIG.

August %, Is14.--Although President
Madison and the other officials of the
Federal Government have returned
here, after their brief sojourn in Viz
GINA, following the defeat Of the Amer
lean land forces at Bladensburg, Nd,
the city is still threatened with attack
by the British.
A portion Of the British feet, under
Capt. Gordon, recently assembled the
Potomac River and reached Fort Wash
ington, on the Maryland side Of the
river below Washington City.
The garrison of the fort, under COM
mand Of Capt. 8. r. Dyson of the Ar
tillery Corps of the Regular Army, blew
UP the Notifications and abandoned
them without even making a show of
resistance against the enemy. He evi-
IDENTIFY felt that the fort was no match
for the British war vessels and that
the garrison could not stand against the
landing parties that the British might
send ashore.
So loud was the sound Of the ex-
plosion when the Americans blew up
the Notifications that they had labored
so hard to build that 1t was heard In
this city.
The hostile vessels continued up the
river and today are anchored in the
Some of the people of this city are
fleeing again this afternoon, fearing
that there will be a repetition of the
burnings that occurred earlier In the
month, when Gen. Ross marched his
army of British regulars into the city
from the transports In the Patuxent
River, driving the American forces out
Of his way as he came.
There is even talk today of making
terms with the enemy, in case the Brit
iSh attempt, or threaten, another attack
on the city, but President Madison, who
has declined to flee again, will listen to
nothing of this sort.
Preparations are being made to draw
up all available troops along the water
front in Georgetown, in case the Brit
ish ships advance to the attack. So far
they have shown no desire to do any,
thing but to remain at Alexandria until
they can collect needed provisions.
