v; hat's Keeping 'Em Out
A Philadelphia editor aaya that
Charles Frohman, before aetting off
on the Lusitania's last voyage, joked
n good deal about London's theaters
In war time.
••The London revues.” he said one
dny, “have funny names—‘Come Over
Here" and ‘Stop Your Fooling.* and
‘Oh. He Careful/ A good title for one
of these thinly attended' revues
would be ‘Wbat’s Keeping ’Em Out?"
•'The last revue I visited the audi
ence hardly numbered a hundred. I
ea!d to the manager consolingly:
'“What's keeping them out? I
guess it’s the war, eh?’
“ ‘No.’ he growled, with an oath and
a side glance at the author. ‘No, it's

Count on Woman's Energy.
“The decision of national issues af
ter the war will be. In the hands of
women as well as men," says Principal
Gilbert Slater of Ruskin college, Ox
ford. in his book, “War and Peace in
Europe." “For, while the advance of
woman toward political power has in
the past been slow In tho extreme, it
has been Irresistible and steadily ac
celerating. The war itself has ifiade
all Europe realize that In the supreme
struggle between nations, survival de
pends upon the energies of women be
ing utilized as well aa those of men.
Henceforward, women will count; and
they will count more and more."
SALESMAN TALKED WRONG
Argument Included Reference to Mis
haps and the Deal Wa*
“Queered.”
The motorcar salesman’s lack of
judgment cost him a sale. He was try
ing to soli a professional man a ma
chine, but he handed out tho wrong
kind of talk and “queered” the deal.
His prospective customer had been in
two or three serious motorcar acci
dents while out riding with friends
and really was just a bit timid about
riding in a machine, although to please
bis family ho^had just about made up
his mind to buy one. The motorcar
man, with much g'.lbness and effective
ness, presented the various virtues of
his car. “Just look at the axle,” be
said. “When you get in a amashup
that axle, unlike many others, will not
break, but will bend, and so can be
repaired without much expense.”
This unfortunate argument spoiled
the sale. It aroused the sense of fear
which the professional man hod when
riding In n machine, and he told the
salesman that he guessed he would nfft
place his order for a machine at that
time.
The Superman.
I teach you the superman. Man is
something that la to be surpassed.
What have ye done to surpass man?
All belnffs hitherto have created some
thing beyond themselves, and ye want
to bo the ebb of the great tide, and
would rather go back to the beast
than surpass man? The superman la

TO THE VOTERS OF THE THIRD
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
I hereby respectfully 'announce my
candidacy for re-election as your Rep
resentative in the Sixty-Fifth (66th)
Congress, subject to tho primary to
be held on September 12th.
During the short time I have been
your Congressman, I have sincere
ly endeavored to serve you faithfully,
?nd if my efforts and record meet
with your approval, I will feel great
ly honored and profoundly grateful
if you will give me your support in
the coming election. Congress has
been in almost continuous session
since you elected me, and duty re
quired me to stay here, which pre
vented me from visiting you as often
as I wished. The Ways and Means
Committee is now daily working on
a Revenue measure; being on that
committee, I must remain here until
the new tax law is passed. As soon
ns Congress adjourns, or before then,
if public business will permit me to
leave, I expect to canvass the District,
meet the people personally, and talk
to them face to face, both individual
ly and gn the stump.
If re-elected, I promise to discharge .
the duties of the great office with fi- |
daiity, and to the best of my ability. I
From the depths of my ( heart 11
thank you for your past kindness to
me.
Cordially yours,

Love of Ease.
What Is there about “love of ease'
that makes tho strenuous one so
wroth? Love of ease ia a universal
human trait, and has been so from the
beginning of time. It is the incentive
even of war. Barbarian tribes and na
tions fight for slaves, and even the
civilized clty-statps of ancient Greece
made war in order to reduce their cap
tive enemies to bondage and compel
them to do all the work, so that the
conquerors might enjoy lives of lei
sure. Love ot ease la the mainspring
ot nearly all human activities. Men
labor to obtain comforts and luxuries.
If the hope of enjoying the fruits of
his work were gone no man would
labor except under compulsion of law
or of necessity. He who vociferates
against love of ease assails all man
kind, including himself.—Phlladeb

FABM-TO-KITCHEN PLAN WINS
California Grangers Declare. Their Ex-
perlment Haa Proved to Be a
Success.
Success - for their direct marketing
experiment was claimed by the
grangers of Sacramento county, who
have been operating their enterprise
under the David Lubln plan of Belling
farm products direct from the country
producer to the city consumer, the Sae-
ramento (Cal.) correspondent of the
San Francisco Bulletin writes. They
have expressed hope that congress
would take some action recognizing
the plan.
The Sacramento county grangers,
beaded by Joseph Holmes, master of
the California state grqnge, assumed
the burden of the experiment.-
After the first eight days ot opera
tion Holmes said:
“There la no question In my mind
about the feasibility of the plan. It
presents undoubted possibilities and .
would be a great success.”
During the experiment the parcel
post is not being used. Instead, tho
grange sendr a motor car around to
gather up and distribute the products.
To meet this expense and other ex
pense of operation tags are sold to
farmers at a rate that would equal tho
parcel-post charges as set forth in Ltt-
bin's bill, these rates, by the way, to
be special for farmers.
Here's how it works:
The farmer malls or sends in tags
on which he designates the products
he has for sale and the price at which
be holds them. The city housewife
mails, telephones or brings in her or
der to the central office, paying with
coupons. The orders are distributed
among the farmers and next day the
motor car delivers the products. The
farmer receives cash to the amount ot
the coupons.
The grangers assert that their plan
oaves housewives from two to ten
cents a pound an all products.
