R 7543 essassa ey STILL IN THE ARMY. gct that Theodorg Roosevelt is m’:m ex-president, the country ever saW is not to be denled. Out of office is mot/with him being out of business, He compares it to getting back into the ranks—he is still in the | army with the workers and loves the work which falls to mctive citizen- ship. Just now he is busy gétting ready for his African tour and a few months’ sctive out of door life as a faunal- maturalist, during which time he hopes to procure specimens which will en- rich the collections of the Smithson- fan institute, will be a joy ‘to him. Professor Starr -of Chicago feels @larmed lest ‘the inexperience of Roossvelt in African travel and un- famillarity with the perils of the coun- try he proposes to visit may result in Ris joss, but it is not lkely that he is without the best of advisers and the most experfenced hunters of the @ay. There is nothing foolhardy about his undertaking. It is a great exploit, in kegping with the ambition of such & hardened and strenuous citizen. FHe not only has his plans well laid out and his purposes well fn hand. but he 42 resolved to uccomplish them. While he cannot entirely ‘free him- self from the prestige gained in me office of president, he goes an uhassuming citizen and declines o @ccept any attentlons which would not de accorded any distifiguished Am- arican. ‘Theodore Roosevelt 18 an object los- @on.

The opponents to this ~concesslon are already saying that “it gives to them a judicial au- thority which very few juries how- ever good their Intentio: fied to exercise should they be inclined to exercise their right to withheld that merciful clause ‘in the case of a particularly hefnous crime, they would be likely to ghrink from a responsibility made ell the greater by the power.of choice given them.” An optional methed has attained in this state through the second degree Jaw which makes the punishment im- prisopment for life, The oyidence of of his advisers, being in his fifty- year., He Is two years the jun- Jury.

The One who sald: “Heaven fs within you," could have'located hell with equal straightforwardness by saying the same of hell, If it is right- which produces heavenly conditions it is certainiy, unrighteous- ness which produces the opposita eon- ditions, and it may not be amisg to remark that hell may be self-made or home-made. ‘When it comes to diabolical condi- tlons we can all agree very well upon them. When it comes to recognize Hades as a place we have no particu- lar_ disagreement with those who be- lieve it is the grave, but those wWho are trylng to give ‘it a geographical location do not appear to succeed 'in furnishing a map with the latitude and longitude Jaid out upon it so that tie location may be made exact.

Luther Burbank, the alleged horti- cultural wizard, has been incorporated and capitalized for some milllons of dollars . and now becomes a miracle worker in finance. One of the season’s specialties that is belng promoted—to the ultimate sorrow of the public—is a shrub called “The Wonder Berry." Dependablé authorities say unquali- fledly that the real wonder is that anybody should buy the thing, as it omes pretty near being worthless. That is true of most of the Burbank creations. Their'great merit is all in the advertising. Mr. Burbank has done some good work, but he Is probably the most over-rated man in the country today. We have tried personally about all,of his “wonders” that can be grown outside of tropical regions, and with one or two excep- tions have found them useless. Expert horticulturists the. country over give the samo vyerdict. The “Wonder Ber- ry" belongs in the class with “Miracle Wheat,” the “Rocky Mountain Cherry” | and similar creations, Those who do not buy these things are the happiest. We remind the credulous that the les- son of the busy little bee is—not to get stung.—Bristol Press. Well sald, brother, well sald. We | have tried some of the Burbank prod- ucts and because Wwe expected too much were disappointed. There are | hundreds of expert harticultural exper- imenters ‘in this -country who are ac- complighing things. Since . Burbank | has been commercialized anything | with his name on it goes, and if it does not succeed with you, it is your fault, not his. Burbanks is a wonder, and he has occomplished much, but those, who do not get stung by his boomers are the ones who are blind and deaf to their pretences. EDITORIAL NOTES. The Washington municipal lodging house is sald to be an illeventilaced and perilous place, The souvenir hunters are the shame of every country, and they are the only ones who do not know it. Northern Canada has had eleven feet of gnow the past winter and the snowstorms_are not all counted yet. The reason ‘some magazine adver- tisements pay is because they are the | most interesting matter in the peried- ical: The average woman is being talked of in.the papers, but she is just as difficult to identify as the average man. 1 The report that Atlanta, Ga., | stood for prohibition last year just | long enough to have its photograph taken, The New Hampshire legislature led all the other assemblies of New Eng- |1and by sending formal congratula- tions to President Taft. Attention is called to the fact that the Taft expletive “Durn” needs only a little change to make it more com- mon and more emphatic. Happy thought for today: Theman who passes out good advice to his neighbors is oftener thought of as a nuisance than a good man. The papers out of Connecticut are now saying that the resignation of Chief Moore' of the weather bureau would appear to be In order. A Massachusetts man who drank ten cocktalls in fifteen minutes was barely saved. Now he knows that is more than an ass can stand, Since it s authoritatively announc- ed that corsets are to be longer than,| ever this year, the inquiry “How ean they be?” appears to be in order. Some brute of a man eays that the money saved from absence from amusements during Lent is generally swamped In the new Easter hats, Now that another Indiane county has gone dry, inquiry is belng made how many countles there are. More than there are in all New England, without “doubt. Those who were Roosevelt went out wete no gladder than he over the ovent. He had had a bully good time, and has a corking good time before him. The fact that the president of the New England baseball league has had 32 applications for the position of um- pire Is takén as evidence that the brave men are not all dead, Tt worrles & congressman in this country ag much to think that a secret service man may be looking into his methods as it does a member of the | Russian doum to g0 to prisen, eman Hobson has a gr r for & man of courage.
