THE SECRET OF BEAUTY is carried by many a Chicago girl—you never suspect that it is there. eee FITZHUGH LEE is hereby reminded that peace hath her victories no less renowned than war, OBSON is too good a man to waste himself on the lect= ure platform, but he ought to t speak a book. , THAT Is A POOR TOWN out west which doesn’t have a girl who is going to be en- gaged to Hobson. see ISS SCHLEY, peace com- missioner, has passed the age of discretion, being more than forty years old. THE UPRISINGS of the Car- lists are so numerous and so futile that the miserable pre- tenders will presently be known as chronic upstarts, wrske DIRECTLY AFTER this country assumes the Span- ish debt in Cuba it will undoubtedly begin to pay off the bonds of the late southern confederacy. BaNoLE—" Then it must THE MENTION of Roosevelt for governor of this state has caused the Democrats to put up so much barbed-wire fence that the market for it is in #famishing condition, THE MAYOR of this town, having rescued three girls from drowning, is hereby permitted to growl all his subordinates’ heads off. ; Whoever rescues one girl does a good thing; but three—just think of it! _ YOUNG MR. BAILEY of Texas tried to have the Democratic conven- tion of his state pronounce against territorial expansion, but the con- vention voted him down almost unanimously.. The man may be a leader, but why does he keep himself at the tail of the procession? PERHAPS THE SPANIARDS would have asked for peace earlier if they had understood our language. “ Why don’t you cry‘ Enough '?” said a bystander to a little Frenchman who was being badly pounded and who kept crying “Hurrah.” “I give a t'ousan’ dollar,” said the little Frenchman, “to know zat word before.” of Juvce are protected by copyright in. * EASILY LEARNED, Mrs, BANGLE—'* They say that half the world doesn't know how the other h: they don’t read the patent-medicine testimonial HOW WE GROW! HE SOUTH has adopted the term yankee. We are all yankees in this country now, whatever the origin of the word. We shall presently know the Cubans as yankees. The word will find homes in Havana, Porto Rico, Santiago, the Ladrones, the Philippines. Where shall the flag not carry it as the years go on? 3 AN INTERESTING POSSIBILITY. [N CASE of a war over China between England and Kussia the former will have at least our moral support; and we have learned at Manila that that kind of support is very powerful in behalf of justice and peace. What, for instance, might Germany have done in the bay of Manila but for the little hint of an English officer that Dewey and he understood each other? THAT REPUBLIC IS SAFE. HAROLD FREDERIC must stop predicting the downfall of the French republic. It is the chief business of that republic to totter; and what can it not survive after the Panama explosion of a-few years ago? Its sympathy with Spain is also likely to prove a serious blow; but there are enough American dollars for its shopkeepers, even under that infliction, to enable it to prolong its life a few years more. ‘COURAGE WITHOUT REWARD. HE DEMOCRATS of Pennsylvania in refusing to indorse the Chicago platform acted with courage, but they are hopelessly. in the minority of their party.in the nationThe majority of the party is still for {ree silver, or re- pudiation ; for communism, fur abrogation of the supreme court, for ruin and chaos and, alas! for opposition to the rightful reimbursement of losses incurred in a righteous war. HOW MONEY BUYS PRINCIPLE. THE FARMERS of Kansas want to present a purse of half a million dollars to young Leiter because he raised the price of wheat. It doesn’t occur to them that he is the meanest and most illegitimate of all, monopolists, and that they have shrieked against all manner of monopoly till they have cracked their throats. And what a dif- ference it makes in the views of those Kansas thinkers whether they have a dollar or a hole in their capacious pockets, THE WAR ABOUT PEACE,- HE TERMS OF PEACE will probably create more excitement than the war did. We, shall quarrel among our- selves about them. . We shall have a civil war over the ques- tion whether we shall keep the Philippines; and then will come the general question of territorial expan- sion and whether we shall abide by the wisdom of men who lived a hundred years ago or that of men who understand the situation as it is now. Heaven save us from the impending danger of a bloody peace! A LACK OF INFORMATION. THE QUESTION is asked,“*Should a clergyman in preaching a funeral sermon say that the deceased has gone to hell?” We shouldsay not. The clergyman doesn’t know. He has no business to state as a fact that of which he is himself in total ignorance. Some respect is due the friends of the deceased. Something is due the clergyman’s self-respect and his undoubted dislike of obviously improper things. Let him go there himself and do the investigating necessary to a positive declaration. SNEERS FOR THE ARMY. $+ NOBODY." says Mr. Croker, "is of any account in this war who isn't wounded or killed.” Is that the kind of patriotism the De- mocracy of this state indorse? It isa good deal for a man to have put him- self in a position to be wounded or killed. Those who occupied that situ- ation didn’t find any particular fun there. But it is the old Democratic story. There was the same sneering at home during the civil war. The Democratic leaders are made of the samé stuff war in and war out. live.” comicbooks.com
