Uncle Joe Cannon seems to be the one man in the United States who remained in congress as long as he wanted to. Most of them find some good excuse to return home long before they feel they have had enough. It was a little chilly this morning but just about snappy enough to make you throw back your shoulders and walk a brisk gait. A few weeks of this temperature now is better than to have it come in a month or two from now. , Reports show that a dozen or two new homes will be built here the coming summer and that's fine for it will probably start ' others to think ing about it and to seeing what i 'means to thus add to the city'. 'We hope several times that number of residences are built during the year. A “human fly" trying to climb a fifteen or twenty story building in the down town part of New York City got the ague and glided off to the side walk below, breaking about every bone in his body. Why men take such chances for a few dollars when they can earn it honestly and with much greater safety is now and t!T ways lias been a puzzle but they- do it and usually pay the price, sooner or later. Republicans and democrats, mem bers of the recent Indiana general assembly are guests for a few day; at the famous French Lick hotel and politics is buzzing at the old tavern. They have nominated n half dozen men on each side for governor ami several for lieutenant governor and fixed everything up to suit them selves. The trouble with the dope is that the people of the state will net as jurors in tho primary next year and may undo all the decisions of the Jaw makers, Imt at. the same time it doesn't do any harm to talk tilings over.

It has come to bo popular with a certain element to hasten to the legislative halls every time they want a law to please their fancy and as a result many strong characters with a particular hobby have had it enacted into legislation. Making people good by legislation has become a favorite pastime. A luw demanded for this and a law for that, until people are la wed to death, rind with every new law, with s its complicated machinery, I here must be a lot of officers to keep the law operative. Tho old fundamental, that that nation is the best governed that is the least governed, seems to have been forgotten.—Hartford City News. if you think Hie bootlegging business will become easier, take a look at Hie new laws ami amendments to old laws enacted by the recent legis lattice. These provide added penalties making it quite a serious crime .o have intoxicating liquor in your possession, prison for those who transport it by any means or to have a still and declare that upon second < onviction the judge cannot suspend entente. It is doubtful if the legislature however can provide rules for ■he Judge of a court to follow. The udge has the power to do as he feels >est in all eases and if his duties are fixed by law, there would be no need of the court. Any way if you are doing any • bootlegging, patronizing them or conducting a still it may be of interest to you to look over the new laws with some care. A shortage of farm help already is indicated in many parts of the country. As the season advances and I farm work piles up, the difficulty will become more pressing. Wages and working conditions should improve accordingly, and this looks like a i good time for almost any young man Io go in almost any direction and , grow up in. as well as with, the cdtiniry. It is true that city jobs are mon- ■ plenlil ul and Ihe need of looking to ’ the country for work is not immed- ! late. On the other hand, farming is , lie most permanent known occupation. and there is no doubt that agri culture is under a new impetus in this country and that it may be listed high among the "coming'' industries. Many a man w-ho has never been very successful in the city might succeed in the country, only he does not know what is the matter with him. Many a one would be happier and freer and would work no harder. Wages which allow no savings mar- , gin in the city would allow it in the country, and what with accumulating a little cash and a good deal of experience the amateur might soon be on the way to owning and operating a farm of his own. —Goshen News-' Times.

EASY TO DARKEN YOUR GRAY HAIR You Can Bring Back Color and Lustre With Sage Tea and Snip' ur When you darken your hair with Sage Tea and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it's done so naturally, so evontly. Preparing this mixture though at home is mussy and troublesome. At little cost you can buy at any drug dore the rcady-to-use preparation, improved by the addition of other ingrc di -nts called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You just dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning all gray hair disappears, and. after another application or two. your hair becomes beautifully darkened, glossy and luxuriant. Cray, faded hair, though no disgrace, is a sign of old age, and as we all desire a youthful and attractive appearance, get busy at once with Wyeth’s Sago and Sulphur Compound and look years younger.

"Next week 1 pay you that dollar I owe.” said Charlie K. Boodle to me. \nd, believing that what he had told ne was so. I bought a new boat from leorge Lee. Next week rolled around but Charlie did not, the eartwheel he failed to produce; now I cannot pay George for the tumbrel I bought he'll reclaim it as quick as the leuce. My beautiful plans have been knocked galley-west because Charles o his promise proved false; my tear Jrops bespatter my collar and vest mil over my toc-tsie-woos waltz. Had Boodle come thru with the coin that ‘io pledged I could have paid Mr. Lee '’or tile van. but. when on his promise lie truckled and hedged it raised merry heck with my plan. Now I canilot speed over hilltop and that might, burnished coupomousine -and Charles is the cause of my weirdsome , wiil and the teardrops that madly careen. Oh. whon you make promises make ’em Io keep and d'diver th” roods right o time: if you to some pilgrim have pledged a fat sheep, eome thru with the sheep is my rhyme. If people would only live up to their word, what a scrumptuous old world this would be: the long of contentment would ever be heard and our worries would sink in the sea.

The first tramp said: “Aw. let's ffo in, that dog isn't vicious, see the way lie's wagging his tail." The. second tramp still dubious, replied: “i sen that all right, but I don’t know which cud to believe.”

Cohan's biggest successes Is the comedy "So This Is London." written by Arthur Goodrich and which Is Just finishing a sixteen weeks’ run ill the Grand Opera House, Chicago. It will be present'd at the Majestic, Fort Wayne, on Tuesday night, March 13 by precisely the same cast which has been playing it so long in the big city and with identically the same scenic production. The story of the play is all hbout the first trip to London of an American financal genius, who, accompanied by his wife and son. visits the British capital for the ostensible purpose of purchasing the plant of a rival busines concern, as he wishes to be a world factor in the manufacture of shoes. The American millionaire is a real American patriot—a one hundred per center —who looks with contempt upon everything British and who remarks at every new adventure —"So this is Loudon!" —hence the title of the play. A cloud appears on the horizon, however, when he suddenly discovers that his son and heir lias fallen in love with an English damsel. the daughter of a peer, and he frets, fumes and threatens. It is not long, however, until he finds that .his millions have not changed the course of true love and in the end he is defeated. at first giving his con-
