Citing the resignations of two sec- retaries and ten undersccretaries, Col. had found it impo: sible to 1lve in Washington and main- tain necessary social activities on the salaries they received. The responsi- billties and press of work required of these officlals, he added, were such as would call for much higher remuner: tion in private business. Mr. Clifford will return to Chicago to return to the practice of law. In offering his resignation prior to ! the departure from Washington «of | Seccretary Mellon and the President, | the assistant secretary said he had mentioned July 1 as the date forieav- ing, but added that he woud remain in office for eeveral weeks in order to clear up several important tran actlons.

ROM sunny California, where wonders never cease, comes news of a discovery which threatens lasting peace. The doctors there, a | busy lot, have found, to their surprise, that under scopolamin a man can tell no lies. Now, on first thought, this riews should bring joy both deep and true, but further ponderation leaves' the thinker sick and blue; for peace on earth, good will to men, since Adam left his crib, have depended to a large extent upon the simple fib. The method of these great men in their well intended trick is as short as it is simple and as thorough as it’s quick. A man whose word is doubted is laid upon his back, while the doctor takes his potent dope | and plans for the attack. The victim, thinking of his past, turns deathly, Now—In- The victim draws a_breath or two, smiles, giggles, laughs and grins, and, as fast as tongue can clatter, dwells loudly on his sins, while the doctors, in their wicked glee, think only of the glories which they derive when they deprive a man of telling stories. Under this drug, the story goes, a convict, bold and bad, will tell the crimes he's been up to since he was but a lad, and, sleeping there, upon the floor, as peaceiul as a child, will convict himself of wrongs enough to drive a wildcat wild. Now, if applied to criminals, this is both well and good, but before going any further it should be understood that the only time a man should be denied to tell his tale is when he finds himself locked up in some good county jail. For consider, just a moment, the tremendous complications if the right to lie should be denied to all men—and all nations. ‘This latter thought i | serious, and, if doctors don’t watch out, a war N k This Ca S THE 3’5’5;‘ of 1\ \ A NAT‘Z':, - b ¥ i { i i the ambassador, ignorant of his iate, dons high silk hat to call upon the Secretary of State.

We'll steal your coal, your mines, your oil, we'll burn your ship of state, we’ll sink your boats, we'll wreck your towns, we'll break your bony pate. “Enough,” says the wise Secretary. “I've thought it all along.
