This is not true, A careful in- stigation will show that the phe- nomenon of increased prices and cost living is world wide in its extent nd quite a8 much in e ence in oth- cr countries of advanced civilization nd progressive tendencies as in our ywn.

But | he's visiting Clayton Porter, so I think the taint of his grandfather must have been somewhat reduced.” Mrs, Carey gasped.afresh at this fiippancy. “Frances,” she said sol- emnly, “do you realize that his grand- father was a common painter? He painted your grandfather's barn.” “Well, what if he did?’ demanded the daughter. suppose the barn needed painting. Mrs, Carey waved this remark aside majestically. ‘“That has nothing to do with it,” she sald. “Your grand. father was a Lee.” “It seems awfully hard for every one to be judged entirely by grandfa- thers,” Frances complained. “Tom Taylor is a fine business man and he made a wonderful record at college. Beeldes, he's visiting the Porters and vou know Mrs. Porter's the fussiest woman alive about the people she en- tertains”. “Mrs. Porter can do as she pleases,” Mrs, Carey. conceded very graciously, ut I must ask that you respect my wishes in this matter. If you don't you wfll“surely regret it. Blood al- vi tells. * well, mother,” said Frances duct by saying that since her moth- er had expressed no wishes that she could remember she had 2 perfect right to be as pleasant to Tom Tay- lor as she pleased. The result of this interpretation of her filial duty was that the voung man with the objec- tlonable grandfather became deeply interested in her. “Frances,” said Clayton Porter one day—he was aware of Mrs. Carey's ideas on the subject of lineage—"do you suppose that I'd dare to bring old Tom up to call on you some even- ing? He's crazy to come and I don't know how to get eut of it." Frances shivered first and then sho laughed. “T'd never dare let you,” she sald. “We'd have to send out an em- ergency call for the iceman to come THE BULLETIN'S SHORT STORY. ONE HAS TO BE CAREFUL and carry him away. Mother'd freeze him to death.” But the fact that Tom was adroitly stesred away from the question of calling upon Frances at her own home did not prevent his trying to meet her whenever he could. ~ After several weeks had passed young Porter spoke to Frances again about it, “1 wish your mother would get over her idea that Tom isn't socially up to the mark” he sald. “She couldn't help liking him.” “I know it,” said Frances, Wist- fully. “But mother's so set and shc thinks that grandfathers make sucn a lot of difference. If he could scrape up only one distinguished ance tor—" However, it was Tom himself who, quite unconsciously, changed the si uation. He and Frances were sitti on the club porch one Saturday after- noon when Frances remarked, #propos of nothing: “What an odd ring you have on! Is it new?” “On the contrary,” said Tom, “It belonged to my mother's great-grand- father, who was one of the early EoV- ernors of Kentucky. You know, after the war, our people came north and they had a pretty hard time, but I be- lieve they used to be rather well known in Kentucky.” When Tom looked up after making this speech he saw tbat the girl was interested. “I'd be so glad if yow'd come and call this evening,” she said. “I should llke you to meet mother.” Tom accepted her invitation. “A _very charming young man” said Mrs® Carey when Tom had left them that evening. His one present- able ancestor had been carefully ex- ploited before his call. “And doesn't this prove what I have always sald— that blood will tell?” Frances repressed her mirth until she got out of her mother's sight. She knew that Tom's genealogy must not be_treated lightly. Several months later, when Tom's position as her betrothed was firmly established, she explained the whole thing to him. Tom whistled, “So T was condemned on account of Grandfather Taylor, who was as good and honest as the day ls long, and only got vou because 1 happen to be descended from an old, blue blooded rapscallion,” he exclaimed. “I don’t know how it strikes you. but it strikes me as just plain funny.”| Frances snuggled up to him. “You'd have got ma anyway,” she sald, “but I'm glad you had thet acceptable an- cestor.

The man who has had his vacation does not care how soon the season ends, Now that the era of the dictagraph has dawned it may be truly sald that walls have ears. It looks as if the Goat had got into politics if he has not yet been accepted as a political emblem. A democratic congress passing bad measures for the president to veto is not making political capital. New London seems inclined to wear metropolitan garments without pay- ing any attention to the fit. The man who can stand up and deny documentary evidence is not common. It is well that he isn't. The populists have decided the times are propitious for them. They are going to hold a national convention, It isn't every defeated candidate who can have a convention of his own, of which he is the eocksure nominee. When Woodrow Wilson speaks, he will be cautious. He is aware that he must neither say too much nor too lit- tle. The clty pavement is preferable on these cool and dewy mornings to courses, You know the fellow who thinks you are a one-sided “kuss,” and who another. Hawa ing of the Panama canal, is calling up- on the government for better docking facilities, The medical trust of Canada is try- ifg to establish a national department of medicine. The press doesn't think it necessar: Taft doesn't indulge in any rockets or beehives of eloquence in speech, but an aura of sincerity clothes all of his addresses. Many a person thinks this is a world of distress simply because he has failed tc get acquainted with his stomach or liver, The man who seized Panama should realize the worth of the command- ment, “Thou shalt not . steal” and honor the commang. Roosevelt had ample opportunity to ackle the tariff, and the demand on bim was imperative enough, but he preferred to let his friend Bill do it! People have scouted at the radical- sm of socialism, and now Wilson and Roosevelt are making Debs look like a conservative, although he not changed. Since it is 60 below zero at mid- summer long before one reaches the top of Mt, McKinley, there can be no | doubt thaf Dr. Cook's record tubes are frozen up. man who is willing 1o let Roose- velt'’s ambition control him when it puts his logic completely out of joint, shows better signs of having been hyp- notized than converted. If the consumer wasn't also a pro- ducer cheapness would be all right, If we simply Want what we produce dear and what the other fellow produces cheap, we shall not get it. The professional gentleman who takes & rest to chase a deer fifty miles through the underbrush to lose him { wonders why people disbelieve him when he says he had a bully time! The president of China warns the penple against tyranny of capitals ism, and says if “Capitalism Is allowed to develop, its oppression may be worse than the tyranny the revolution threw off. Dr. Wilson has reversed himself and owned up that republican ideas are country lanes or sea beach strolling | n't | sufficient intellect to know that he is | in anticipation of the open- | correct. He would gradually revise the tariff just as President Taft is preparing to do, only he doesn't en- dorse a tariff board. Who ever thought Mr. Roosevelt would go about the country exciting the prejudices of the people for his | personal preferment? We used to think he had both feet imbedded in sound principles and was as firm &s a rock. IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN GENIUS. By Dr. Frank Crane. It is a genius that feeds the world. Pastor Wagner makes this compari- son: that, just as we all live upon the earth, but it 1s necessary,that plans and animals transform the minerals of the soil so that they assume forms suitable for our nourishment, so men of genius take the great facts of na- ture and reduce them to such sub- stance as shall supply our souls. Shakespeare says the poet gives “to airy nothings a local habitation and a name,” _ Mr. Bailey stated in the national leg- islature that without the farmers we should all perish from the face of the earth, Doubtless; but the genius is no less necessary. Without him civil- lzation would soon sink into “a war of kites and crows.” It is not labor nor the laboring man that is essential to society; it is brains. | Remove every hand-worker from the | earth, and humanity could still live, for the non-workers could soon learn to work, But remove all superior minds, the inventive, resourceful, far- seeing, organizing minds, from the world, and we should siip back into barbarism at once. False aristocracies, of inheritance and privilege, we might well dispense with; but. the real aristocracy of su- | perior men and women is an eternal | necessity, | “The sentiments which decry the ‘ncontestible values of men,” says | Wagner, “are symptoms of moral rick- | ets. We live by our capacity to rec- | ognize and honor what Is great, and we die by suspicion, skepticism and the spirit of disparagement.” Sounds Like a True Story. At one time when I was on the range,” says Abe Peters, “there was a man in the camp who never took a bath. He told me one day that the, last time he was in the water was when he slipped off & footlog and fell eek, when he was 7 old. A scale of dirt had accumulated on his head that was over an inch thick. One night while he was asleep we sowed his head with alfalfa seed and harrowed it in with a_comb. He never discovereq what had happened till the seed sprouted and a heavy growth of alfalfa started all over his head. As he never washed anyway, weo persuaded him to let the alfalfa {grow. It made a fine growth, as there was enough perspiration to keep It ir- rigated. The first crop blossomed in May. The smell of the alfalfa in bloom neutralized the other smells the man carried around and while he look- ed Sort of queer with a two-foot crop of hay growing on his head he smelled a lot better than he had ever done in his lite before. We harvested four crops off his head that season and out | of the last crop threshed out over g | quart of fine alfalfa seed.”—Kansas City Journal. into the Here's a New Version.

Mr. Roosevelt makes saying, in his Outlook bones t no ticl mother had a brother in the confed- erate army. He does not, however, bring it much further into the lime- light in which he loves to live Rim- self that his mother was an “rebel” propagandist in the early da when men in Georgia were halti between joining secession and the staying in the union, and that she would mount her horse and away for miles to reason with and round up | for the confederacy | ers as she heard of. e ak does 1 special pains to mention that Liverpo uncle of his mother's who ma collected the funds that fitted out the Alabama, which literally swept the | white-winged American commerce | from the ocean, mever to return yet.
