Then tho Missouri doubter W ill own he ha been shown. The simple village maiden Who goes to keep a date Will call to you in passing, "Say, are my wings on straight?"

The girl will answer sadly, "My wings are out of gear." And if that docs not stop him She'll have to coldly say: "My wings are In the. "wash, sir. I cannot go today." .

Modern Ballooning.
There is no reason why ballooning
should not become as popular a sport in America as it is in Europe. We have just as good air and just as much of it over this country as can be found over
any of the countries of the old world,
and while we do not have as many
church steeples on which to alight, there
are in some parts of the country
plentiful supply of osage orange hedges,
which make a fairly good substitute, Of course we do not have such
vast and aggravating proportion of idle rich, which appears to be a necessity for ballooning, as they are the only
ones with the time and the money to
engage In the sport.
However, that is a handicap that may be overcome. If some one can show us
how to make money navigating the air
we will drop our other work and take
to ballooning as naturally as though we had been born four miles above
datum.

American Buyer In London. "My American accent came near to taxing me just $430 on my last trip to London," remarked a clubman. "WbeD I tried to buy a certain bulldog pup there the kennel man priced it at $500, as he had me sized up as an American and. In his regard, an easy mark. I made a deal with a cabby at the hotel stand, who went around and bought the same pup for me at $00, a very fair price, as the dog will never be a show winner. I gave a $10 tip to the cabman, so I made $430 by employing aa agent who called his hansom an 'ansom and his horse an 'orse." Xew York Sun.

Reformers Must Get Busy" And "Bo Things" Sometimes By Professor CHARLES ZUEBLIN of the University of Chicitfo
HE people, of the middle ages so far outclassed the modern globe dwellers that comparisons are not only odious but very
disgraceful to those who are unfortunate enough to be on
earth at the present time. And the reason for all thb hid-, eousness is that the "reformers" are living IX THE CLOUDS OF POESY and reading "new thought" when they ought to be filing up their back yards and otherwise contributing to the beauty of the landscape, municipal and otherwise. Most of ns live in the midst of ugliness. Everything about ua is bo ugly that when we get a little bit of beauty we herald it all over the country. There are plenty of people doing research work in our universities, but they are all "literary" and don't care for' manual training oc anything like that, SO TILINGS CAX GO OX BEIXG UGLY. All courthouses have to have domes. People seem to think that a courthouse would not be a courthouse without a dome. They have imbibed this idea probably from the fact that the old courthouse at home had a dome. It is the same way with soldiers' monuments. At one time the country was flooded with inartistic soldiers monuments, and now we can't get rid of them. We in America are suffering from a new disease which is not sufficiently appreciated by its victims. It is THE NATIONAL DISEASE OF PROSPERITY, and it leads us to a failure to appreciate material things. Rich men sometimes get hobbies and overdo all propriety by loading up with old masters and first editions. Very few show any VERSATILITY in art IF THE ENTIRE POPULATION OF CHICAGO SHOULD VISIT THE ART GALLERY ONCE A WEEK THEY WOULD NOT BE MAKING
j THE CITY ANY MORE BEAUTIFUL. THE PEOPLE MUST COME j DOWN FROM THE CLOUDS TO A CONSIDERATION OF MATERIAL THINGS
