Old coat, for somo throe or four seasons We’vo boon jolly comrades; but now Wo part, old companion, forovor; To fate and tho fnalilons I bows . You’d look woll enough at a dinner, I’d wonr you with prldo at a bnll, But I’m dressing tonight for a wedding— My own—and you’d not do at all. You ’vo too many wlno-stains about you, You’re scented too much with cigarsj When the gaslight shines full on your collar It glitters with myriad stars)— That wouldn’t look woll nt my wedding; They’ll seem inappropriate there— Nell doesn’t uro diamond powder; She tells mo it ruins tho hair. You’ve rosted oil highly oiled stnirwnys, Too often when sweet eyes were bright, And somebody’s bnll dress—not Nol- lio’s— Flowed ’round you in rivers of white. There’s a reprobate loosonoss about you;— Should I wear you tonight I believe, 1 As I como with my bride from tho altar, You’d laugh in your wicked old sleeve When you felt there tho tremulous pres sure Of her hand in her dolicnte glovo, That is tolling mo shyly, but proudly,' Her trust is as deep as her love. So go to your grave in tho wardrobe, And furnish a feast for the moth; Noll’s glove shall betray its swoot secrets To younger, more innocent cloth; ’Tis time to put on your successor— It’s made in a fashion that’s now; Old coat, I’m afraid it will never Sit as easy on mo as you. —George A. Bakor, jr, THE NATIONAL ELECTION. Atlanta Journal. In the full tide of defeat tho Demo cratic party well may take courage from the truth that the reactions of irritable movements are not usually tho verdicts of history. If the party had gone down under a record of idle stewardship and' broken faith, then would its leaders and itB rank and file liavo cause indeed to lament. But tho fact is that its reverse has come upon a record of duty magnifi cently done, and of faith unfalteringly kept. During tho last seven years it has brought to pass more constructive re form, more serviceable legislation, and, as far a# Government can affect sucli matters, more progress and prosperity than the two preceding decades had wit nessed. Entrusted with power upon pledges to do certain things which tho nation’s best thought considered needful, tho Democratic Administration did them J diligently and fully, dosplto a harrying Republican minority. Tho Banking and Currency Act, which prevented financial dlsnstor; tho building of a morohnnt ma rine, which opens a now era of foreign trado; tho institution of epoch-making aid 1 to agriculture and education; tho writing of a now charter of freedom for millions of toilers; tho uprooting of vest ed Wrongs in business and politics; tho strengthening of tho forces that make for sound prosperity; tho lifting-up of standards Hint mnko for Iranian better ment—all this, and more, stand indelibly to tho credit of tho Democratic party, Moreover, it was under this smile party’s leadership that America fought; and won her grant war, Both tho mili tary and moral crisis of Hint heroic drama arc unexampled ill tho annals of our international affairs. Guidance less wise or less righteous might easily have led to disaster and disgrace. But tho record is that wo kept out of tho con flict as long as honor allowed, entered it with no shadow of unworthy nmbl- tion, waged it with an efficiency that brought the enemy to torms a full twelve months oarilor tlinn was hoped; and then in tile counsels which ensued gnvo our Government's voice and influence wholly to the interests of a just, a roeoneiling, a proad-visionod and enduring peace, It was not n party’s win—nlhelt Repub lican corpora have talked ns though it were;—it was a nation’s war, and tho patriotism that spoilt itself so gloriously for-victory know no political lines. Never theless, tlio chiof burdens of responsibil ity wore upon the party in power. And hiBtory will not fail to givo that Admin istration 'anil its supporters a placo bo- Side| the noblest o/fiiicvomcnts of the ages. With unruffled confidence, therefore, we* mny look to tho future—and to a tore probably not remote—for vindi- jibn of the loadorship and tho prln- les that stand for tho prosont rejected. Goy. Cox fought out tho issues with a couBistoncy and com ago of which his paTty woll may ho proud. Not onco did ho fear to say What ho thought and purposed in hiB heart. Not onco did ho turn his back upon principle for more opportunism. Thnt he labored under heavy handicaps wits evident from tho beginning. The impulso of tho hour wiib for political clrango, regardless of rec ords and prospects—no Impulso which was not rally nation-wide, but world-wide, the votoran Olomonceau himself falling boforo its bliiBt. It is now unquestiona bly plain, moreover, thnt delicate Ibbuos involving our international relations should not have been thrust into a po litical campaign, if by any munnor of ary channels. Tho Journal, ns a firm boliovor In tho principle of tho Longue of Nations, protested against dragging its issues into a linbol of partisan null racial animosities. President Wilson, wise trad Intrepid champion its ho al most invariably 1ms proved, erred when lie proposed that method of settling the question, for the opposition party wished no richer opportunity to befog and be little a great ideal. FARMER’S WIFE REPLIES TO LAW YER’S CRITICISM. In a recent issue of tho Atlanta Con stitution Col. .1, 0. Adams, a well-known lawyer of Gainesville, had an article criticizing farmers for their extrava gance in tho matter uf automobiles, higher living, and general shiftlessnoBS. This draw from a farmer's wife the fol lowing slinrp retort, which was also printed in Tho Constitution— "J. 0. Adams, of Gainesville, says tho avorngo farmer 1ms spoilt pll for automo biles, gasoline,-silk - shirts! picture shows, etc. Tho question I want to ask Mr. Adams is, hasn’t the farmer just as much right to roeolvo enough for Ills products to onablo him to own an au tomobile, Mh wife and daughters to wonr silk skirts, and go to picture shows, ns the lawyer, tho merchant, tho doctor or any other profession that ono may follow! I imagine Mr. Adams is an up-to-date lawyer; that ho possesses an nutomobllo, his wlfo and daughters dross woll and go to picture shows. If there is a class of pooplo that really need a car it is tho farmer and his family. “I have livod on a farm from infancy and I think I am in a position to know how fnrmora and tholr familloB liavo to work and economize to bo nblo to moot expenses, and I understand tho renting class and know ttioir neeossitios. “Tlioy riBO boforo dnyllght anil work until dark. I doubt wliothor .tliOBO pooplo who aro always scowling at tho extrava gance of tho fiirmor and Mb family ever worked a day of real hard labor nil a farm. Lot tho pooplo who aro afraid, tiro farmer ami his family will have u lux ury or ovon a convenience got out in tho country and try farming twolver months, and tlioy will know bettor how to eriti- cizo farming conditions. “Mrs. Walter Komiody. “Plains, Gn., Oct. 2», 1020.” means it was possible to bring them to | a reasonable adjustment through custom- “ Mario I ” roared Mr. Gnyboy, “where on earth is my liatt” “I am sure I do not know,” retorted Ids wife coldly, still showing Bigns of tho family bcoiio which had marked hub by ’s return homo in tho woe small hours. “You ought to,” snorted tho man. “I can't keep a tiling about this house. It’s a slintno then way things disnpponr without any apparent reason I I would just like to know whore my lint is!” “So would I,” replied tho lady mean ingly. “You.didn’t liavo it on when you came home Inst night." Professor (.giving examination)— “Does aiiy question embarrass you !” Bright Student—' ’ Not at all, sir. Not at all. Tho quostions aro quite clear. It is tho nnsword that bother mo. ’ ’ HOW DOCTORS TREAT GOLDS AND THE FLU Origin of Johnny Canuck. Tho word "Canuck,” as applied to Canadians, is of North American In dian origin, from tho word On-nuck-or or KannucU. With the term Canuck Is sometlmed associated the word “Johnny," as "Johnny Cunuck," prob ably because Cunadlnns are sons of lohn Bull. First Step in Treatment Is a Brisl£ Purgative With Oalotabs, the Purified and Refined Calomel Tahlots that are Nausea- loss, Safe and Sure. Doctors hnvo' found by oxporlenoe that no modiclno for colds and Influ enza can bo dopondod upon for full ef- foctivonoBS until tho liver is made thor oughly actlvo. That is why tho first stop in tho treatment is tiio now, nausea- loss calomel tablots called Cnlotabs, which aro froo from tho slckontiig and, weakening 'offocts of tho old stylo oalo- mo1.
