Give us some thing that we can reach, something that it wilt not be necessary to use a speaking tube if you desire to com municate with the fair damsel. Ex. .. ' Watermelons Are "Dry." (Washington Herald.) . By Injecting an ounce of good whis ky into a growing watermelon, a planter claims to have discovered that it may be given "a rare flavor." The trouble about it is, they will not stand for that sort of doctoring down where the watermelons grow. Testimony before a Parliamentary committee. At the present time a great many extremely Jmmoral plays I use the word "immoral" in the correct Eng lish sense, I had almost said the sense In which It is not used from one end of the Bible to the other are now passed and performed because the censor I do not know how to put this point politely was not sufficient to an expert in moral questions to know always when a play was im moral or the reverse. Mr. H. Law By immoral you mean "non-customary"? . Yes you will understand there are people who may be conscientiously Immoral for instance, if I may say so, Lord Gorell's views on the sub ject of divorce are immoral and shock ing to the Archbishop of Canterbury, but they are conscientiously immoral, and he Is doing a very high public , service in bringing them forward. As an immoral writer, I claim to be a conscientiously immoral writer, and I lay great stress on this use of the word because I would remind the committee that from one end of the Bible to the other, as I have said, the words moral and immoral are not .used. You think that any outrage on re - llglon or attack upon religion or ridi cule of sacred personages should be .. allowed on the stage ? I think it should. I think the public would look after that I think the danger of crippling thought, of obstructing the formation of the public mind by sup pressing such representations, is far greater than the danger from the rep resentatlons. . . BACK TO HOOP SKIRTS. There's a rumor that the diabolic al fashion, the hoopsklrts, are to come In again, and supplant the present styles that have been made sport of more or less, chiefly more, by the newspaper writers. There have been a great many fool things worn by the women, but the follest of all was the expansive hoopsklrt A good sized woman encased in hoops of a suitable else, would sweep everything oft the sidewalk; two or three women in a street would stop the wheels of com merce and Bend the drivers around block. It would be a difficult matter Irrigation has done such wonders In both arid and semi arid sections of the country that the O. R. & N. al ways awake to the development of the country have just Issued a 65 page booklet on the advantages of well irrigation on small farms. The company fully realize that day of the big farm is to be a thiag of the past and that a few acres scientifically farmed will produce more tonage and support more happy homes than large tracts devoted to single crop cultiva tion. Irrigation is working such won ders that commercial circles are lend ing a helping hand where ever pos sible, The book's Introductory sen tence quotes Dean Swift, written in 1726, "Whoever could make two blades of grass grow where only one grew before would deserve better of man kind than the whole race of politicians."
