Man that is born of a woman, is of . tut a few days, and full of microbes. hoppeth. out of bed in the morning, 1 c&ad his feet are pierced with the tacks j . .ti disappointment. He walketh I Irihrough the Streets of the City, in the " pride and glory of his manhood, and slippeth on the banana peej of mis i ; fortune, and disjointeth his neck. He J vtsmoketh the cigar of contentment, and j iKbchoW it explodes with a loud noise, ,for it was loaded. He slippeth down ! ttfe. banister of life and -encounters ; . many slivers of torture. I .V-4SHe' lieth - down to sleep at night, ! - and. is stung by mosquitoes of an- Vvfcyance, and his frame is gnawed by , .the . bed bugs of adversity. What is ! ntan but the blind worm of fate? Be : : 'hold, he is impaled upon the hook of ! despair and furnishes bait for the j ' - Leviathan, death and the fathomless I ocean of time. Sorrow and travail j ' ifollow him al lthe days of bis life. t v In his infancy he is afflicted with Vorms and. colic and. in his old. age is afflicted with rheumatism and ; 'growing toe nails. He marryeth a i - ' oss-eyedi woman because her fathe i " . rich and ndeth she has not sense ! -ugh to. fry the festive chuck steak; -v'dthen the father-in-law monkey- ! ' -'-In with options and goeth under. . ' What is man, but the tumor on the , . tuck', of existence? He playeth the aces and betteth on the brown mare, b&canse he received a tip, and the sorrel gelding winneth by a neck. Be 1 hold, "he. runneth for office, and the deadbeat pulleth his leg ever and -anon,' and -then votes for the-other .manjlbnt he-exalteth himself among j the , people and swelletti with pride, but when the votes are counted, his name Js MUD. He had boasted of his V strength in Israel, and is beaten by the red-headed man from the Bloody Third.? He goeth forth to breathe the 'reh air, and meditate upon the van - 'if of earthly things, and is accosted y a Bank Cashier with a Sight Draft or $492.00; and then 'a political en- rn,y lieth in wait for him m the mar ''t. place and walketh round him, - owning him like a cock. Verily, - j-an is nothing but a wart, on the nose jot nature, a bunion on the toe-of time and a freckle on the face or the uni verse. . ' CONTRIBUTED.

L T m A 1 asiirngtuii, ja.it. Aw.r-iiic oiti Belgian people in the territory overrun by Germany continue to be abuse-J. "uar rassed and suffer severely at the hands of the iron handed and "kultur ed'' German oppressor. Not content with destroying their work of art, stealing their wealth andlture in a Japanese bowl treasure- ana anving tneir men ana girls into GermanV to undergo condi tions of slavery, the Germans arn now taking from the long-sulferins tut brave and patriotic Belgians the few meagre necessities of life they a"-1' possess. if ormation leaking into the Unit- States from Belgium through Hol land and given out today by an offi cial of the Belgian Official Informa tion Service shows that the Belgians have recently been robbed of their cows, milk and eggs, articles which !to change it three times a week And were already so scarce in Belgium ; then sotne said feed lt twice daily anfl that they were reserved for children 'olnerg thrice weekly, and invalids. These necessities oft A trrt-.f Tloio.vvkrtT. Hrnnn life were taken from them by large bodiec. of German troops on their way to the Flanders front. These outrages follow seizures by the Germans through Imperial .edict of all the woolen mattresses and cush ions, shoes, tobacco, clothing and cop per, brass and bronze cooking uten sils owned, highly prized and sorely needed by the poor Belgians. Heavy fines and imprisonment were announced by the Germans for non compliance by tne Belgians with these outrageous demands. On October 18 a German edict ordered that a declar ation should be made of "all shoes, such as walking shoe, sport shoes, ball shoes and slippers of all kinds." Only wooden shoes were excluded. Two weeks .later four out of five of the declared articles were to be de livered to the Germans. In the mean time, wool was seized all around the country. The inhabitants had to give ail kinds of wool, "pure or mixed, in cluding mattresses and cushions." They had to be replaced by bags of sea grass, according to two private letters from different sources, dated at Brussels, at the end of November. 1917, received just now at the Belgian? Megation, only one change of clothing Wfc 1 1J. A J.-U Y-l 1 ! 1 AT I uerman aumoriues. The kitchens did no escape the req uisitions and -rapacity of the Germans.

Nearly ev ery conceivable brass, copper and bronze object which enters into the construction or furnishing of a house has been requisitioned. Those dismal edicts invariably end with a threat of the most terrific pen alties for those who fail to comply by the delivery of often minor articles. A fine of ten thousand marks and one year imprisonment for holding back mats, 50,000 marks and three years mprisonment for hiding wool, 25,000 or not aecianng snoes, iufuuu marKS for not delivering all tobacco that one happens to own, etc., were threaten ed as penalties. THE VALUE OF A SMILE. v p -9 5 s r c The thing that, goes the farthest in making life worth while, that costs the least, and does the most, is just a pleasant smile. The smile that bubbles from the heart, that loves its fellowmen, will drive away the clouds of gloom and coax the sun again. It's full worth and goodness, too, with human kindness blent; it's worth a million dollars and it doesn't cost a cent. There is no room for sadness where we see a cheery smile; it always has the same good look, it's never out of style. It nerves us "on to try again, when failure makes us blue, the dimples of encouragement are good, for me and ycu. It pays a higher interest, for it in merely lent; it's worth a million dol lars and Itr doesn't cost a cent. A smile comes easily enough; a twinkle in the eye is natural, arid e'ees more good than any long-draw sigh; it touches on the heart-strings tiJ J they quiver, blithe and long, and aJv?ays an echo that is 1 vesv a song. So smile away! folks unaerstand by what a smile is meant; it's worth & million dollars and it doesn't cost a cent.

New Xot' Ja9- iO.It is funny whata goldfish can do to disturb tho peacefulness of placid lives, v Sofire;. one sent Miss Baird Leonard, the pun gent paragraphcr of The Morning Tel egraph, a gold fish for a present the other day. When the elevator man informed her that he had put a fish in her apartment she looked ot him sharply to see if he were registering impertinence ' or imbecility. She opened the door of . her apart ment and beheld a glittering three fourths of an inch object darting through the channels of a Bockiin pic- Caesar's cryptic triple-verb message about hU conquest of the Gauls went double fot that gold fish. 'Miss Leonard waj changed more quickly than th3 Gem in "Marouf" from an independsnt vot er to a slave beset by responsibility. First the fish had to have a name. So she christened him "Stuyversant." Secondly, he must be cared for. Ev erybody, except Miss Leonard, it : seemed, knew all about gold fish. Some said to be careful and change the water every day and others said snd saw the lone goldfish and shud- dered. There was only one thing to do said the neighbor get a compan ion for Stuyvesant or he will Jie. So she started out and drifted into cne of those drugless drug stores that keep everything in the world but drugs. "I am looking for a minnow to play vith my gold fish," she , said to the clerk. The clerk turned her over to the chief of the minnow department. There was a paucity of companionable minnows. The clerk believed it was the war at least everything was be ing blamed on the War. So Miss Leonard went home to see her gold fish die of loneliness. While she had gone something had happen ed. There was Stuyvesant and two little gold fish. "And now it seems that she will have to change Stuyves ant's name: Theatrical managers are huddling into their fur coats these days. Dir ty weather, mates, along the Ailato. Ticket speculators go about with tears in their eyes wishing they had stuck to burglary or sneaking milk cans where lt would be possible to have a dinner at Child's now and then. " Brady said recently that it would be only a short while before at least twenty theatres in New York would be , dark. A. L. Erlangdr the same day said about the same thing. When Brady and Erlanger say the same thing it means something. For years they have increased the work ing hours of lawyers to prove the an cient adage that there are several sides to each question. If Mr. Erlang er says it is going to rain, Mr. Brady predicts a lon dry spell. The theatre is in an alarming state. Seventy new productions thus far and forty-nine have expired with low gurgler- And the poor stars are as free oiSoney as an unwashed Rus sian is of a clean collar.

Three young blades in evening clothes and silk toppers, arms link cd, were weaving up Broadway cheer ing late pedestrians with tunes. One started the Heligo song. The others tried to follow and after several false starts they suddenly switched to "Over There". And not one of them smiled but the late pedestrians got a ood laugh. Eeatmg war bread is not a fad. It is a true patriotic service in the in terests of your fighting men and of food conservation. NO CURE TOR RIGGS DISEASE All Depends Upon Whether You Con sults Dentist or a Physician.
