THURSDAY, I EB. 12. 1913. Man should not be judged by his incomes lax alone. Congress is getting so, it w ill Stand without been hitched. You cannot spell piety with out spelling pity, much less live it. Poor roads are the expensive things that curse a country dis trict The lockilep is to be banished from financial as well as penal in dilutions. One-half of the Washington officeholders wonder how the other half got in. A woman knows her new hat isn't becoming to her because her deareft enemy tells her it is. If Congress will be good and attend ?tri<5tly to business it can have a holiday to enjoy the Four th of July. Goethals for Govern Dr of the Canal Zone and Gorgaa for Sur geon General is a eood ticket for Panama.

Bring on your governmental pioblems: while he waits further news from Mexico City the President u running a little short of work. Those 702 pennies given to Children by John D. Rockfeller may come to have great value among coin collector! as rare curiosities. The woman who want* "de vorce made easier", and "mar riage more difficult" muit not have noted the surplus of old maids and grass widows. Miss Margaret Woo J row Wil son's plea for the use of the cchool-house as social ccntere shows that she has inherited a fair share of Papa's brains. Tiger skins are the latent fad in Paris. New York has one it would be willing to dispose of cheaply, but u&'crtunately it is &ill on the Tammany Tiger. Let us applaud the cuilom that compels congressmen to leave their guns outside the Cap itol even though it seriously in terfers with the homicide records of some emotional &atesmen. Woman suffrages in New York ?ate advised to. wear mourning for six month* if they fail to get the vote. The Prom ised saving in dressmaker's bills haa given New York bushands a new incentive for ftubborness. . Have you ever noticed that the averaged man will torn out of the way of a go-cart, with a baby in it, and lift his hat to the proud momma who wheels it with never a murmur, and then and then scowl at a crowd of "society" women 6a their way frosi a.club'mtfettec, who crowd Km off the side walk? -V I President Wilson seems deter mined to leave the progressive parly with nothing much to do, but endorse his wise ads. Have ,'ou noticed that while fanners' toys are flocking to the cities to do clerical drudery at little more than ilaivaiion wages their city employer*, the far sighted business men, are invent ing heavily in farm property? asks the Chicago Drover's Jour nal, and then adds that it feels safe in asserting that more than half of the wealthiest business men of Chicago havc.bought ot are buying farmf. Tlie fad is a significant one for young farmers to bear in mind. It means that while the value of properly is at a low ebb now, the lima will come when much of the beil farm properly will be in the hands of those* who are paying smart country boys $10 per week for ten to fifteen hour counteror desk work per day. BEGINNINGS OF FREE SPEECH En|llah Hout* of Common* Fin* Do llboratlv* Body to JUoort Rlfht ot Dtocuoolon. The Ant legislative body of mod ern times to claim the rights of free speech and free discussion was the English house of commons, which declared in favor of such a right on December 19, in the year 1621. This brave declaration marked a most im portant step towards the liberties of England and of all the world. Prior to' that time the members of the com mons did not dare to criticise the ruling powers. It was this parlia ment which tint formed the court' and country, parties, and which had engagtd in disputes with James I. Eight years. after the declsration of free speech Charles I. dissolved par liament, and it did not meet again for eleven years. In 1640, however, what was callod the "long parlia ment" was convened. It was this house of commons that first attacked the house of lords and voted that the upper chamber was useless and dan gerous to the liberties of the country. The bishops ware also exoltki^d from voting on temporal matters. The house of peers was abolished in 1649, but four years later Cromwell dis solved the long parliament BALD.
