Patriotism does not seem to have many public demonstrations these times. The making of money and the spending of it interests | more people nowadays than what | the thirteen colonies did or how the} Revolutionary War turned out. | How many readers of this paper can say without looking it up in) ‘a reference book when the Revolutionary War began and when the #dreaty of independence was signed and under what circumstances? | That is one good thing that the Tammany Society, the old Colum- ¥ bian Order, does. It dates time from the Declaration of Independence, ‘and to-day, as on every Fourth of July, that venerable and noble docu- + ment can be heard by any:one who will go to Tammany Hall and listen to its reading. H Few people, however, will either go to Tammany Hall or read the ‘Declaration of Indevendence at home. Thousands who could get away took a train or boat yesterday after- | foon and will not come back any sooner than their pocketbook and/| business necessities compel. The outgoing baggage rooms at every rail-| Toad station, the docks at every steamboat pier, the crowded cars and boats, tell of the attempt to escape serious thought beyond vacation time, its length, its cost and its possibilities, Patriotism that is compulsory is not patriotism at all, but a mie Don’t Say i Glorious Fourth M to the Chorus Girl, se For Little Mabel’s Face Is Against the Pane * believe. Hence it is useless to seek to force upon grown up people a knowledge of the Declaration of Independence and the obligations that erise from it, of the liberty of the fundamental structure of the gov- ernment of this country and the way that structure has been misap- plied and its principles distorted. The public schools at least might have kept in session a few days longer, or had a special ses- Sion on the Fourth of July at which the Declaration of Inde- pendence should be read to every School child, copies of it distributed sand its great principles recited. The early sowing of such seed on im- “Pressionable minds might lead to an increase in the crop of patriotism. ———_—++ CHINESE PIGTAILS. Chinese pigtails add to the elaborate coiffures which New York ‘women are wearing.

By Nixola Grecley-Smith. No. 9—The Husband That's Merely Mushy, AR be It from me to discourage any husband from F making love to his wife. The majority of hum bands are not sentimental enough. The type of man I have selected as the ninth undesirable husband is not sentimental. He is Merely Mushy. He's the man that gives his wife a kiss when she has asked for an explanation, because he finds {t easier to kiss than to explain, the kind that deliberately exploits a wome an's love of being made love to because he can’t meet her demand for truth. She asks for bread and he gives her a chocolate eclair. But let us descend from simile to fact. “John,” she remarks timidly—for she has learned to tread lightly om any other subject than that of John's manifold perfections and her love for him—‘John, we haven't paid the butcher's bill for three weeks, and he was dreadfully {mpertinent when I gave the order this morning.” John drops the hand he has been holding.
