Old Mellen's testimony would have
been of vastly more importance to
the country if he had put up his
squeal when the crooked transactions
were being pulled off. The fellow
who waits until the horse is stolen
or your house is burned dowp to turn
in an alarm would not be credited
with having either, much sense or
honor.
nS
Thus exclaims the Dallas Dispatch,
and follows what the Dispafch is
talking about, and it is surely worth ed their childish hearts, there are
They are orphans and yet they are
not orphans. Fatherless in the sense
that they have been bereft of the'
care of him who by the/ ties of blood
had claims upon them, bflt it is their
good fortune to know that while
death has left its sting and sorrow-
whilte:
Tired and worn by weight of cares,
President Wilson moves into a tent
Close to nature, to fresh air and
the saving play of merry sunshine, he
goes for a new baptism of physical
strength with which to wrestle with
the gravest problems our country has
faced since Lincoln’s time.
Isn’t’lt a tip to all of us?
Any man can get a tent. Most any
man can find a spot of grass on
which to pitch it. Even though his
work by day may be in a stuffy shop
or office, the nights are free. Why
not sleep in the open air and get a
grip on primal vigor?
Complete change of scene, with ut-
ter rest, is fine when you can afford
it—all his fellow citizens wish that
the president might have a thorough
vacation, for truly he has earned it.
But half-way changes are better
than none.
A tent’s the thing—if you’re afraid
©f getting wet.
But even if we had a tent for
shelte^ in case of need, we’d pull the
cot out under the laughing stars and
sleep with naught between
ropward to infinity.
In the free communion
starry night there is balm for mortal
trouble and re-birth of mortal'
strength.
70,000 brave and chivalrous Knights
of Pythias in Texas today who stand
in the place of the loved ones gone,
and who are pledged to provide for
them with ^11 the fatherly care with-
in the province of man to bestow.
Then why should they not he happy
and joyful? Ere long they will go
out into the world ,to engage in the
battle of life. When they go they
will be equipped with the education
and training and the elements of
character necessary to a successful
engagement. Then will the great
army of Pythians have discharged
the obligation they assumed to pro-
tect the widow and the orphan of de-
ceased brothers.—Denison Herald.
To be of. lasting benefit, according
to our understanding, every reform
must begin in the home. We are to
get our great men and good women
from homes where God is honored.
Th‘ere is no fact in history that is
better proven than this. And good
citizens are seldom made anywhere
else. The homW is the great train-
ing center of the world, or at least it
should be.

“Somehow,” remarked the young
woman, “I don’t like the expression
of your eye, George!”
“What?” demanded the young man,
emerging from a brown study. “What’s
the matter with my eye? It’s a per-
fectly good eye—and all that—I assure
you! Why, that eye.of mine has taken
prizes—”
“Now I’m sure of it!” almost wailed
the young woman. 'It’s the expres-
sion you always wear just before you
propose to me! I’ve'seen it sixteen
times, so I ought to know! Don’t tell
me you’re going to do it again—after
all I’ve said to you, George! And we’d
settled down so nicely into being just
friends!”
“We’re not such great shakes as
friends,” Baid the young man. “A
friend is a person that it is no bother
to have around and yet -with whom
you can dispense easily and still eat
three meals a day in peace of mind.
You don't fit any of that description.
It bothers me like the deuce just to
look at you and as for dispensing with
you—this is the fourth time thiB week
I’ve been here, isn’t it?”
"I'm sorry I annoy you,” said the
young woman, a little stiffly. “I am
sure I have no intention—”
“You have, too!” interrupted the
young man rudely. “It tlcIQps you to
death to watch me suffer*! My break-
ing heart is better than a $2 matinee
for you! If it was otherwise, then
instead of sitting here with you I’d
be tramping down the steps with the
fatal words ringing in my ears, ‘Miss
Jonhs has a headache and begs to be
excused this evening!’ I guess I
know! You’ve got Roman blood - in
you, Laura Jenksl One of your ances-
tors sat In a front arena seat and
turned her thumb down every time in
those good old days!”
“Well, I never!” gasped the young
woman. “Why In the world did you
call if you were going to be so dis-
agreeable?”
“Can’t I be disagreeable in my own
way?” demanded the young mao.
“When I propose to you it must be
extremely disagreeable from your
standpoint, so I should think you’d
like a change of subject matter. Still,
if you’d rather—”
“George Forest!" cried the young
woman. “Don’t exert yourself to be
obliging! And don’t think I am hold-
ing my breath waiting for you to re-
hearse that same old theme!*■**.1 am
sure I don’t want—”
“Then that’s all right,” said the
young man with relief. “To ease your
mind I’ll tell you that nothing was
farther from my thoughts.”

with startled eyes, in which amaze-
