Self-denying isn’t a bad habit. Try it. Optimism is the note in business circles. New York has 11,000 anarchists, one to each policeman. Santa Claus has gone on record as favoring the strictest mneutrality. Safety first. Did you do your shop- ping ahead of the eleventh hour rush? The earth is often designated as “she” because no man knows the age thereof. ‘What has become of the old fash- ioned man who knew what was good for a frost bite? At any rate, President Wilson does not encourage the simplified spellers or the futurist writers. Any turkeys that live past Christ- mas will look forward to a long and uninterrupted period of peace and prosperity. The legal bar of Bemidji took up the case of the alleged illegal bar at Kelliher this morning in the mu- nicipal court. Almost every father of a family | can understand at this time of the | year why Santa Claus’ whiskers are white, as well as long. President Wilson and his bride at Hot Springs, Va., spent yesterday re- plying to hundreds of telegrams and letters received from all parts of the country. One dear old lady says that she had hoped that the Serbians would win because they must be good peo- ple, their capitol, Nish, sounded so much like the Bible. There are some Americans who are actually so much absorbed in the war that they are hoping for in- ternational peace more ardently than for a settlement of the baseball dif- ferences. The presidential campaign of 1916 will have more tariff in it than pre- paredness, even if President Wilson is trying to make national defense the prominent factor in the politics of the country. -Confronted by a deficit which he ad- mits to be more than a hundred mil- lion, Secretary McAdoo comes blithely to congress and asks for money to em- ploy 485 additional collectors of in- come tax at $1,600 a year each. The boys must have jobs whether the treasury is full or empty. Smoking'at the armory during bas- ket Jball games should be prohibited. It is not only bad for the players but is objected to by the women specta- tors. Authorities in charge of the games should take immediate steps to see that all smoking at the ar- mory is prohibited during games.

ADVISE THE GIRLS TO WEAR WHITE ONES London, Nov. 20.—(By mail.)— “Beware of black stockings; better ‘wear them white,” is the candid warning of .the Fashionable Art League to British women. German dyes are not obtainable and British dye cannot do the work, the league explains. It pertains to several of the colors. They’ll run when wash- ed and are harmful to the skin. THAT’S CARRYING A GRUDGE PRETTY FAR Bangor, Eng., Nov. 20.— (By mail.) —Bangor’s most patriotic man is Noel Savage, a citizen who heard the call of war in Borneo. He traveled home to enlist via Japan, Russia, Finland and Sweden and on arrival didn’t wait for the local recruiting sergeant to ask him to get into khaki.
