I watch above you where in dewy sleep You lie with parted lips as children lie; I watch your bosom's breathing slow and deep With unknown dreams and the long hours drag by! oft'.y you sleep, and I who watch above Your dreaming bosom know no art to woo Rest unto weariness, nor unto love The answering love that steadfast is and true! Yet dear, I blame you not! In our own breast Is it ordained that love be light or deep? Only, tonight, for grief I can not rest. And you who love so little, sweetlty sleep! Arthur Stringer. v r;EOiif;i farmers learning. Judging by a recent editorial in the Atlanta Constitution, eastern Oregon Is not the only country that has been afflicted with a single-crop regime on the part of tillers of soil. The chi?f difference between the Oregon and the Georgia farmer was that the termer insisted on growing wheat to the exclusion of everything else while the southern man's hobby was cot ton. The latter, however, is finding Hit that he can grow corn with profit and just as good an article as that produced In Kansas or any of the other corn states. The Atlanta paper says: "It took a purse of $700, offered by the little city of Commerce, Ga., to bring out the corn-producing possi bilities of Jackson, Banks. Franklin and Madison counties. "The prize was offered at the he finning of the year; ISO farmers ent Ted the contest and now it Is said that in that section are many acres o.' th fir.est corn ever seen by the oldest inhabitants. "It Is a'so reported that many vis itors who have traveled through Kansas declare that the corn grown In "he traditional corn-growing state cannot approach the Georgia article. "This is by no means surprising. Th soil of this state, in sections where com Is cultivated, is more ideally ad- aptffj to its production tnan tne son i of TTansa. The climate is better, and there Is much more vacant land upon whi"h to beat the record of the west em commonwealth. "Had Georgia lived up to her corn growing p jrtunities as has Kansas, r.ot forgetting meanwhile her fecun dity In cotton, it would be difficult t stimate the wealth of the state at this time. "Another thing. "Diversifying cotton with corn would not only have meant stable pri- s for the former staple, and a riv! crop almost as important from the standpoint of final return, it would also hvr meant the addition of a third great industry that of grow ing cattle. "As a rrsult of a relatively simple little contest, many of the farmers of these four counties win this year gr-t a convincing object-lesson in the valti" of corn-raising. They may not maki as much cotton, probably, but will get more for it, since they will not have to pay cash for com and fodder. t is unlikely, also, that they w ill , ever go back entirely to the one- crop system. '"The Constitution views the state wide establishment of corn clubs as one of the most hopeful Indications of our Industrial status. "It Is not less than Inspiring to se evidences that we are approaching a systm of agriculture that will, even- tuaHy. trebled the wealth of the state, and reserve beaten back to obscure meanwhile removing the drag; of all- recesses never more to reappear. Such cotton which has made a menace out j ". woman may command man's ad of That should be our principal . miration, even his respect, but will asset." I she be able to retain the love, rever- THE PRIZE KING ENVIRONMENT. Colonel Abe Slumpsky is the name of a ''true-Mood sport.' having St. Louis as his home, according to the rows dispatches. It appears that like several thousand others of his kind Abe spent the last Fourth of July in Rt-nn. Unlike several thousand oth ers of the same color he figured that J f f could not "come back." The result was that by the time Tex Rick ard had announced the result of that inglorious melee, Abe's wad of "vel vet" hulsed until there was not room for it in his pockets. But Abe was too wise to attempt to carry his roll of Ions green in his pockets, even if the pockets had been large enough. No. not with Reno's social environ ments such as it was. The Telegram tells the remainder o' the story ns follows: "The Colonel purchased a few por ous plasters, and with the, aid of these ii.genously put several thousand dol lars In yellowbacks "under hatches," as it were, upon his broad and manly cliest. When he escaped from "dip"- ir.fested Reno, he carefully moistened the plasters and the available money supply of the country was materially enhanced. But it is what Colonel Slumpsky said of this experience that !s more to the point. Here it is: " 'It was the only safe way to carry money in Reno. I would have stuck U on my back, but there wasn't any body I would trust to do it for me. Say. the Jeffries-Johnson fight drew the choicest bunch of strong-arm guys and dips to Reno that ever got to gfther. The evening of the Fourth I kicked twenty empty pocket-books off the plank walk. I didn't sleep two hours all the time I was In Reno. 1 knew my roll was stuck to me. but I didn't feel safe. When I wanted to cat I went out into the suburbs and bought a glass of milk and a sand wich from a farmer, because nobody ever went into a restaurant there and came out with roll'." "We may safely assume that Col '.pel Abe is en.lowed with one of those fi rviil imaginations, and that what appears in the foreground is exagger ated in a measure. But, iu the main, the picture he draws is only the logi cal presentation of conditions at every such fight. They are conventions of thievery and of crookedness of all sorts, and in that lies one of the chief ctnimumil objections to the fight game.'' INM IK.l'M'Y IN ( VUHIIiMA. "The emancipation of the repub lican party in California from domi nation by the political bureau of the Southern Pacific railroad and its al lies," is the foremost object of the Lincoln-Roosevelt Republican League of that state. "Truly, a strange ob ject in a government professedly free," says the .Saturday Evening Post. "For forty years California, po litically speakine. has been an asset of a railroad whose creatures have been put into the legislature, into congress and on the bench. "This seems an odd situation in an American state, but the oddness is more apparent than real. In Cali fornia the ruling politico-business hierarchy happens to center In a single corporation. In other states it con sists of a fraternitj of many corpor ations. Pennsylvania, for example, is 3 5 much bossed as California, but not t the same degree by its leading rail road. Probably, for one thing, the Pennsylvania railroad is too intelli eent to set up its chief counsel as the political general superintendent of a i state. "The contest In California is essen tially the same contest that other states are waging to drive preda tory business out of politics. The sit uation there is. however, both simpler and more galling, because the enemy U so easily identified. And there the contest is more forward than in many states. The Lincoln-Roosevelt League as California Insurgents call them selves, is making a good fight to carry this summer's primaries. In the sec ond congressional district the candi date 13 William Kent 'Just the sort of man that is needed in congress.' says the Daily News of Chicago, which city Mr. Kent helped to lead out of its traction Jungle. We expect the California insurgents to win. It Is tiot easy to believe that California chooses to be the appenlnge of a rail road." Mrs. August Belmont predicts that England will soon extend the rirht of suffrage to the women of that cnuntrv and that the United States jvlll not be long In following the lead, This means, according to the ardent covetors of power, the dawn of a new age. We may then expect to see In the near future, the new woman In all of the strength which she has evolved .since the day when Mother Eve was created to become the' help meet of Adam the man-woman agressive, militant, boldly treading where her kind once feared to tres pass, all of her once native reticence enoe, and worship which he has ae corded her In the past? "The president worked In the pymnnsium for an hour today. Later ho played golf with Henry C. Frlek. the steel magnate, and John Hays Hammond on the Myopia links," said a dispatch from Washington yester day. Had he finished the day by go in;.; fishing, the public might he led to believe that he was preparing for a ristio encounter with Jack Johnson. There seems to be danger of an In ternal eruption among the assembly ites when they meet to draw up their siate. U is not surprising The double cross always shines on an or ganization whose members "work in the night when righteous people sleep." With the escape of the young Se attle high school boy from the clutch- es of Madriz. young America can look forward to the early publication of an Alger or Optic book under the caption "The Boy Brigadier," "With Fstrada in Nicaragua" or "The Se attle Spirit Abroad." "Now is the winter of our discon tent made glorious summer by this sun of York." will be an apt quota, tion for the Insurgent sympathizers when Roosevelt breaks his silence and opens up his vocal guns during his an nounced tours. Georgia farmers are learning that it Is profitable to grow- something else besides cotton. Perhaps there Is yet hope for the Umatilla county wheat baron. Secretary of War Dickinson was banqueted yesterday by Emperor Ito and from all accounts It was a love feast. Why not register? STRANGE ROMANCE IS REVEALED IN ENGLAND London. For a week all England has been discussing the strange case of "Harry Lloyd." And it is not to be wondered at, for no novelist ever Invented a stranr or more romantic plot than that which was acted in real life by the mysterious person who bore the name of "Harry Lloyd." and whose death at Enfield has led to the discovery of the secret she guard ed so carerully for nearly 30 years. In the days when Charles Brad laugh and hl disciples were conduct ing their great rationalist agitation there was to be found in their ulti mate circle of fellow laborers an ar dent spirited French woman, named Mari. Le Jioy. For a considerable time she was one of the most active and devoted workers in the cause. And then suddenly she disappeared out of the lives of those who had worked with her and they knew her no more. Now, after 30 years, it is learned that it was no sordid intrigue that Ud this remarkable woman to disap pear from view. She seems to have cherished a deep, sisterly affection for another and younger woman. This friend of hers was in deep trouble, having loved not wisely but too well. To save her friend from tne scorn of the world, Marie Le Roy adopted a unique plan. She assumed the name and dress of a man and hence forth lived with her friend as her husband. Even after the death of her friend she continued to carry on the unselfish deception in order to afford a father's protection to her friend's child. This child, now g:own to womannhood and well known as an educator, was astounded when the coroner's inquest divulged the strange fact that "Harry Lloyd" was a wo man and not her father us she ha 1 al ways believed. DISHONESTY AND HIGH PRICES. Th work of the newly created bu reau of weights and measures in Mil waukee, has resulted in some start ling revelations with reference to the prevailing conditions of the morals of the retail merchants of a great city. At the time of writing city sealer F;en C. Jansen anrr deputy sealers W. F. Steinel and George Phillips have een at the actual work of Inspecting weights and measures a little over two and a half months, and in this period have found it necessary to condemn and confiscate over 2000 dishonest weighing and measuring devices. The accompanying photoghaph shows i, cording to Deputy .Searr-r Pteinel, tile largest collection of cnnfisrirl : weighing and measuring devices ever made by an American city, j "We have not been ab!..- as yet," j said First Deputy Str-lnel. "to pay mu?h attention to the city markets, the commission houses, nor to the ice. coal and milk supply. ,o far we have confined our work principally to the grocers and butchers." The bureau's report for the month of April shows that out of .i total for j the month of April shows that out of :t total of 263 places visited, all the scales and measuring devices were given the official O. K. in only 63 stores. This report would seem to in dicate that seventy-six per cent of the. merchants visited were either care less in some of the methods of do ing business or dishonest. The num ber of actual scales inspected in the 263 places during this month was 87!). of these, 130 were condemned and 168 adjusted. The per cent of scales bad was thus 33 9-10. The number of measures inspected was 1893, of which 451 were condemned. The per cent bad here was 23 3-10. From "One Reason Why Living Is High," In August Technical World Magazine. "Do you think, sir, that I am the man to resign under fire?" "Will, no. But how would you f' el like resigning under a nice coat of whitewash?" MOTHERS FRI01D A LINIMENT FOR EXTERNAL USE. One of the most valuable qualities of Mother's Friend Is that It safe-guards the future health of the mother. It is a liniment to be applied externally to the body, the use of which lubricates the muscles and tendons, softens the glands and ducts, prevents lumps forming in the breasts, and relieves the pain, nervous ness, nausea, and other troubles from which so many expectant mothers suffer. When Mother's Friend is used regularly it fits and prepares the system for an easy and natural consummation of the term. Women who massage with this great liniment are always saved much suffering when baby comes, and recover store quickly, and without iU effects. Mother's Friend is sold at drug stores.

But one of that blessed status In life took offense at the term in Long Island and caused the man who applied It to her to be haled into court, where he was sternly reprimanded by the magistrate and directed to expunge the word from his vocabulary. But it is not clear wherein lay his of fense. The term is dignified and complimentary- There may linger a fem inine objection to the adjective "old." but that could beeliminated by a very slight application of philosophy. As for the noun, it is usually supplement ed by terms of praise. Unmarried men do not rusli into court when they are called bachelors or even old bachelors. The bachelor uncle is a delight to nephews and nieces. The maiden aunt is beloved ami cherished in every household blessed by her presence. She is not ir.f i equentnly its most attractive member, even without the charm of youth. For that she has substituted a golden glow of placid benefieience. If there were in her early life a love affair, it is preserved in the lavender l-.avos of her memory, she has no. occasion to brood, nor need melan choly cloud her brow. The geograph ical distribution of old maids in the United States has happily grown less uneven. But it is probably that the number of old maids by their own choice is greater than before the days of more money per capita and of readier transportation. Woman has advanced in both education and In dependence. She can. when she will, s t higher standards for her choice. The suitor has more difficulty iu proving his case, provided the fail one js endowed with discriminating judgment. There is less common need of marriage for a home.

It may have also its In fluence upon the development of character. Within somewhat elastic sociological limits there cannot be too many old maids among the population. They have their peculiar mission nto perform and they usually meet its re quirements with sweetness and light. Doubtless it was the intent of the Long Island boor that constituted his offense. He might better wish that this maid may long grow older and older. Washington Post. MAN WITH TWO WIVES EXPECTS EARLY RELIEF Los Angeles. Cal. Mrs. c. Jack Bobbins, wife of No. 1 of George A.
