The coinage of a two-and-a-half cent piece would mean cheaper campaign cigars. At a bull fight in France a bull killed a toreador, but usually the result is less gratifying. The world is certainly growing better. Nobody has killed this year’s peach crop yet Mary had a little lamb, and In this respect she stood one ahead of the Wall street of today. Advocates of long sheets on hotel beds think that a tall man should not be punished for hi* size. i ' The season is arriving at the pivotal date for prices of coal to go down and prices of ice to go up. A Pennsylvania man filled his pipe with gunpowder, thinking It was tobacco. And then it happened. At any rate, infant paralysis does not appear to have made much headway among our Infant industries. Baseball can be played in any language, though some noisy persons in the bleachers will never believe it possible. One out of every ten couples married in lowa in 1910 were divorced. Evidently marriage is not always a failure. The news that there is $300,000 lying in the government treasury unclaimed 4s sure to start a new crop of claims. Archery is going to be revived this summer, but among girls with thin arms it will be no more popular than playing on the harp. Mankind has been raising chickens for 6,000 years or so, and has not yet produced a king of the poultry yard with a soporific voice.

One of the deplorable features of the British coronation is that it will cause a flock of alleged poems to be perpetrated on the innocent public. A child labor law which would make it illegal for a boy to drive home the cows would undoubtedly be quite popular among the youth of our rural district*. ■ > Boston women school teachers ask higher pay than men because it costs them more to live. If that is not a sign of the times we are painfully mistaken. Not less Important and worthy of ceremony than the christening of the baby, the amateur gardener thinks, is the arrival of the first mess of radishes. A Chicago woman wants a divorce because her husband called another lady "Morning Glory” and "Honey Bunch. The “Morning Glory" might have been overlooked, but “Honey Bunch!” Oh, putty! Thieves tn Harlem stole a grand piano from a house. There must have been harmony ih the gang to get away with a prize like that, and probably there was music in the air when the owner discovered his loss. Flies and mosquitoes are to pass a strenuous summer, if all the plans for crusades against them are carried into effect What they are preparing for the public may only be surmised, but unless the plans materialize it wv? also be something strenuous. Scientists say flies hate blue paint and will not remain where the walla have been coated with it If your kitchen is painted blue and flies continue to congregate there it Is probably because your flies are colorblind. London Is to have a dock that will accommodate vessels 1,000 feet long. Of course Germany will have to proceed to construct one for 1,100 foot vessels. But that is more sensible than the Dread naught competition, ■lnce the docks will be useful for other purposes than those of destruction. A noted philanthropist, in denouncing ."the devil of sneering cynicism" who sits In the editorial chairs of modern Journalism, declares that newspapers need young men who prefer sls a week and to stay honest than SSO a week to doing otherwise.
