en <-semennionmacioneene ee _ SEND ROOSEVELT VIA RUSSIA. as “a fellow democrat and a fellow radical,” Col. Roosevelt addresses the Russian people through Count Tolstoy, urging them to use their victory with “moderation and wisdom.” * Good advice. But we still believe the Colonel could do his own’ country and Russia a greater service by delivering the advice in person. ‘The American mission sent to steady democracy in Russia and hold it to its task should be as strong purpose in view can make it. It has the statesmanship of Mr. Root. It needs the popular appeal of Mr. Roosevelt. “Unless there are members on that commission who will be per- sonally acceptable to the Russian Social Democrats,” Prof. Petrunke- vitch of Yale told the Economic Club Jast night, “the Russian press will create the impression that the commission was sent for the epecial purpose of fighting down the Social Democrats who are now in the ascendancy in Russia.” In that case “a fellow democrat and fellow radical,” as the Colonel describes himself, is exactly what the mission to Russia ought to have in order to succeed, Even if Col. Roosevelt is to fight in France why not send him by way of Petrograd? He should be proud to render two-fold service to his country. + Norwegian nerves are jumping under the U Only inland neutrality can stand it long. ——-+ > ———_ 2 MAY DAY SIGNS.

For, verily, verily, Kisses are the assets of matrimony—but gy are its liabilities! | And there are seven times seven varieties of —but of grouches there are only seven, Lo, there is the common, or garden, Grouch, which even an ANGEL suffereth occasionally, breakfast, and when it raineth and spoileth the or the ball game on Saturday afternoon, and whem he hungry, and on Sunday morning, and when he fs to mow the lawn. But without these what man be natural, even endurable? Likewise, there is the Perpetual Grouch, which | indigenous to the Confirmed BACHELOR, and whith nurseth {n place of a soul, and cherisheth in place of a wife; which is | of his flesh, and heart of his heart, and his only comfort In life, And there is the Imitation Grouch, with which every newly-made ‘band seeketh, at least once, to subdue his wife. For all his bachelor ft ‘have warned him that a woman must be “shown her place,” and that only pretending to browbeat her occasionally can he prove to her that HH is and master within the house, Kiss him, my Daughter, and ruffle up hair, for only by IGNORING it canst thou dispel this Grouch and cure vain delusion! There ts, moreover, the Preparedness Grouch, wherewith a man craftily to forestall a woman’s righteous wrath by ATTACKING first, he knoweth that he meriteth punishment, His mottd is “Deflance, not fence!” and when she would open her I{ps to accuse him, lo, he fireth first shot, and bombardeth her with accusations concerning the weakness | the coffee, or the coldness of the chop. And behold, she is put at once on # | defensive, and her tongue is broken against her! Yea, and there is the Injured Virtue, or “Early-Martyr Grouch,” whet he wrappeth himself AFTER the battle, when he hath been discovered 1 his iniquities and received his sentence therefor. And, when one of hath lasted for three days, ANY wife will cheerfully beg’her husband's par} don for having found him out, if only for the sake of peace! And there is also the Cynical Grouch, for which there is neither © nor remedy, but which dampeneth a woman's ardor and putteth out @ lovelight in her heart. For constant criticism is a knife which cutteth throat of love. ‘ But the Grouch of GROUCHES is the Dumb Grouch! For no wife foretell when it will descend upon her Beloved, nor whence {t proceedeth; whether from his heart, or his tooth, or his digestion, or his conscience, there is no CURE for {t In all the world, and no light, and no hope, naught but gloom and silence and horror until it hath passed away! Verily, verily, my Daughter, study thine husband's grouches, and be dismayed thereat. For without an occastonal GROUCH no man would be human! © | | | Successful Salesmanship By H. J.
