minded him oi town life.
Chancing across a country
postman, he stopped him and li

"It's 4 o'clock In tb afternoon
by the railway time."
-By railway time!" ejaculated
the young man. "I should say
that you coantry folk, living in
the open air, in the heart ot the
country, as you do. would take

for a reference to non-cooperation,

a few minutes later when he de
clared that the taxpayers of India
would be only too willing to meet
the additional taxation that ma;

UNIFORMITY
"Before the5V.6rld war," said 1
Dempster Dunn;,, the Washington
reformer, "a good many of U3
looked with approval on the sen
timental socialism preached by
Shaw, Wells and certain other
highbrows; but we've had a bit of
a taste of socialism now, and it
doesn't taste as good as it used to
look.
' 'Boys,' I said to a. group of
Pinks the other day, 'I know ex
actly what you want. You want.
In the first place, a regime where
money doesn't exist.
' "Exactly! the Pinks agree.
" 'Where one woman doesn't
wear thousand dollar gowns while
another goes In rags, but all
dress alike in; clean, sanitary,
durable clothes.'
" 'Exactly, comrade!'
" 'Where alL work the same
number of hours, eat the same
food, occupy the same kind of
habitations!'
" 'That's the cheese!'
" 'Well, boys, said I and I
sneered in the Pink's excited
faces 'there j are lots of places
where that kiind of regime is to
be found. These places are called
prisons or jails.' "
