"I did think for a time that man was some pumpkins," remarked the weary head of the house. "What made you change vour mind?" "Well, just as I can quit heating up the house to keep the cold out I must begin buying ice to keep the heat out. It seems to me that there should bo some way of averaging this thing up."

Miss Amelia Hig ginson, of Honeoyo Falls, is tho pres ident of this unique organization of ancient virgins and the way she went after President Uoosevelt in her open ing speech was a caution to cats. "The President belioves in tho rear ing of large families," she screamed. "He has a right to his opinion, but when he places childlessness in the same category with criminal acts, he goes too far. The President is the fa ther of what we Americans would call a large family, but be is not the moth er of a large family. ( Applause, dur ing which several delegates exclaimed 'O, My!' and applied their smelling bottles to their noses). We have beard nothing about 'race suicide' from the mothers of America, and we never will bet the President grapple with the tar iff, trusts and the coming election. -i- They are more in his line. He can safely leave the question of babies in the hands of the women of this great republic," Amelia is right The President is not a mother and he never can be Nay verily! bet him attend to his own bus iness and when he wants a little re- creath let him hunt bull elks and mountain rams with Panthereyed Pete In the mountain fastness of Jackson's Hole He has no business attempting the safety-pin and paregoric act. The mothers of America, assisted by the advice and eounsel of Amelia biggin son and her ancient aggregation of vestal virgins, will see that the race doesn't run out!

At Middletown, N. Y., a jury has fixed $200 as the price a middle-aged man must pay for kiss ing a middle aged woman against her will. This is too little and too much. A kiss obtained from a middle aged woman against her will is not worth a cent. A kiss obtain ed from auy woman against her will, whatever her age or previous condition of servitude is not worth a cent. A kiss obtained from any wo man who it peisonally attractive, with her full consent and hearty participation, is worth more than $200 much more and a kiss he stowed under these conditions by a high bred, warm blooded woman i of middleago is simply beyond price. True, there can bo no way of regulating the market value of a kiss, but if there were, ouly mil lionaires could afford to kiss middle-aged women of the' proper pulchritude and pedigree, and then not often. Kisses stolen from or bestowed upon girls, debutants r other ex cecdingly young women are thrown away. It is a shameful waste of raw material. It is ouly the ladies who have arrived at au age when they stop counting who are fully equipped aud qualified to sign, seal and deliver a kiss that will burn a hole through sand paper. And these are the only kisses worth worrying about or striving after. Wasn't Cleopatra 40 when she did all the damage? Do you for one instant suppose that Sappho was a bread and butter miss? The man who buys a kiss is a chump; the man who steals one from unwilling lips ought to be locked up in a foolish house; the man who steps up like a wiuner and sips it from the ripe, red lips of maturity is a gentleman and a hero, always in demand. DISASTROUS WRECK. Carelessness is resixinsible for many a railroad wreck and the same causes are making human wrecks of sufferers from throat and lung troubles. But since the advent of Dr. King's New Discov ery for consumption, coughs and colds, even the worst cases can be cured, and hopeless resigna tion is no longer necessary. Mrs. Lois Cragg of Dorchaster, Mass., Is one of many whose life was sav ed by Dr. King's New Discovery. This great remedy is guaranteed for all throat and lung diseases by W. S.
