Old Gumbo had six stalwart boys,
and they were blithe and frisky:
but Edward sought the transient
joys one gains from bootleg whisk-
ey. A little while he yelled. and
whooped, as one who is enchanted;
and then the weeping mourners
trooped to see him safely planted.
Young Rudolph though he’d take a
chance. and speeded up his Lizzie.
what time he saw the train advance
—the coroner got busy. And Jasper
followed the advice laid down by
diet takers. his form was placed up-
onthe ice by courtly undertakers
Gay Clarence took a sniff of dope
to keep his head from aching. and
now he sleeps. on yonder slope. the
sleep that knows no waking. Brave
Andrew wandered by the mere. in
seach of straying pullets; a hunter
took him for a deer and shot him
full of bullets. And Jabez took an
ice cold bath. obeying some physlco
inn. and now a rendezvous he hath
with Jinks, the town mortician. Old
Gumbo, he is bent with years. his
days are sad but quiet, he doesn't
drink synthetic beers, or follow rules
of diet; he doesn't follow the advice
the learned physician hand him; old

Week
Throughout the nation this cur-
rent week countless individuals and
organizations are aiding in the ob-
servance of Better Homes \Veek.
Each year brings to the patient
people of this union many “weeks"
of varying designation, but few are
more worthy of consideration than
Ihe one now being obscrved.
To have a hand in the beautifying
of a home, in the increase of those
ideals and intangible gifts which
change a. house into a home. is an
object which nome may safely scorn.
Many interpret Better Homes \Veek
u a period confined to a study of
the material or architectural aspect
of the home. There is a deeper
meaning. The house is but the
shell of the home“. A moment's ap-
preciation of the other, and far
more important things which go to
constitute the home would be to the
benefit of nation and individual. The
high-lensioncd life which civiliza-
tion has forced upon the world is
not conducive to home—making. and
a contemplation of the more seri-
ous things is decidedly in order.

Mark Twain‘s Daughter Says:-
It was always impossible for me
to regard my father as a. private
person—th' think of him as just my
father or my mother's husband. I
felt about him as I imagine a
traveler feels about the Sphinx. One
cannot easily say how impressions
of greatness creep into the mind of
a small child. marking one of its
daily companions with an insignia
that awcs and perplexes. Often. my
father played charades with us. or
took us on long walks. Yet rarely
did I lose the feeling with my father
that I was in the presence of royalty.

Nothing could make hls face light

slght of a kitten. If I stepped into
his study where he at work. and
barely discernible through a cloud
of tobacco smoke. he Would look up
and say in a sweet. half-absent tone:
“\Vhat do you wish dear?"
If I carried a kitten in my arms,
the dreamy look would disappear
from his cycs. and he would drop
any work to ncsilc the soft ball of
fur in his neck. We children were
not supposed to disturb him at
work, but if for any reason we were
forced to, I always thought it ex-
pedient to be accompanied by a
kitten.
Mark Twain was especially fond of
reading and writing in bed. One day
a. reporter who had permission to
interview him called when he was
in bed. At the doorway the report-
er paused. and Mrs. Clemens asked
her husband through the half-open-
ed door.“don't you think it would
be a little embarrassing for him—
your being in bed?! Mark Twain’s
easy. deliberate voice replied. "Why
Livy. if you think so, we might have
the other bed made up for him."
Iceland’s Experiment.
Of all countries Iceland would
seem to have plenty and to spare
of isolation. yet the Icelandic Parlia-
ment in its economic wisdom has
decided to curtail the foreign car-
goes of goods and gauds that the
islanders have been accustomed to
purchase whenever traders found
their way to the land of glaciers and
volcanoes. says the New York Her-
ald. For two years. say the leg-
islators, no more ready-made clothes
shall be imported: no more pic-
tures. automobiles. films. jewelry.
All adornments and luxuries. all the
odds and ends that minister to en--
joyment. apparently are barred.
If there are murmurs of rebellion
the news has been suppressed. Icé-
land has a long tradition of self-
sumclency. Until recent yeard. it got
along without the ordinary comforts.
Lord Bryce after touring the island
in 1872 concluded that “tourists.
even those who are tired of the Alps
and the Pyrenees. ought not to be
advised to visit Iceland unless they
are either interested in Scandinavian
literature and history or belong to

The Ingredients or (m l Poetry
The powers requisite for the pro-
duction of poetry are those " obser-
vation and description. sensibility, re
l’lection, imagination. fancy, and
lastly, judgment. So believed \Vil—
linm \Vordsworth. probably the
greacst of the poets of the Roman-
llc Movement in England.
By the power of oII-rvaiion and
description he meant the ability to
observe with accuracy things as they
are in themselves. and with fidclty
to describe them, unmodified by any
passion or feeling existing in the
mindof the describer: whether the
things depicted be actually present
to the senses or have a place only in
the memory.
"This power. though indispensible
to a poet. is one which he employs
only in submission to necessity. and
never for a. continuance of time: as
its exorcise supposes all the higher
qualities of the mind to be passive.
and in a state of subjection to exter-
nal objects. much in the same way
as a translator or engraver ought to
be in his original.
e O
\Vordsworth explained the other
requisite powers:
"Senslbility,—¥whlch. the more ex-
quisite it is, the wider Will be the
range of the poet's perceptions; and
the more will h; b.‘ incited to ob-
serve objccts. both as they exist in
themselves and as rc-actcd upon by
his own mind.

THERE'S JOKER IN GERMAN
"‘GOLD BANK” PLAN. SAYS
DA“'ES ADVISER.
There is a. “joker" in the set-up
of a. new German bank under the
Dawes plan. Col. Leonard P. Ayres
said recently. Col. Ayres. a vice-
prcsldcnt of the Cleveland (0..)
Trust Co.. acted as economic adviser
to the Dawes commission.
“Apparently the bank» is to be on
a gold basis." said Col. Ayres. "But
hidden in the report it says the com-
mission believes the bank cannot
start on a. gold basis, although later
it may come to it.
“The British. who are good econ-
omists. objected to the gold basis be-
cause they wish exchange to fluctu-
ate with the pound sterling instead
of the American dollar.
“Many of them believe the United
States is on the eve of a gold in-
flation period and they are willing
to help it along in the belief that
we will buy great quantities of

(fol. Ayres said it was expected
that America would take a great

complish it. They must insist that
this loan have genuine priority

of certain provisions of the Treaty

FOOT AND MOUTH DISEASE
In view of the epizootic of foot
and mouth disease in cattle in cer-
tain parts of California at the pre-
sent time and the interference with
travel and with the shipment of cer-
tain food stuffs (including milk) as
the result of the presence of this
disease. Acting Surgeon General
White of the Public Health Service
was asked to discuss foot and mouth
disease from the viewpoint of its
possible danger to human beings.
“The disease.” Dr. White states,
"is as acute. highly contagious mal-
ady affecting chiefly cloven-hoofed
animals. such 3 cattle and sheep.
Animals suffer ng from foot and
mouth disease have fever. followed
by an eruption consisting of vesicles
(small blister like sores) occurring
chiefly on the mucous membrane of
the mouth and on the skin at the
cleft of the hoof and less frequently
on the udders and other portions of
the skin. There is usually prolong-
ed ill health and much wasting of
the tissues.
_“The germ which causes this di-
sease has not been identified. but
it is known that it occurs particu-
larly in the exudate from the vesi-
—cles; in the saliva, and in the milk
of infected animals. though it is
not limited to these materials;
is readily destroyed by heat. such
milk.
"Adult human beings are not very
apt to contract the disease, but it.
is by no means rare among child-
ren. .
