DO IT EARLY,
Do
your Christmas shopping
early, do it early, mother,
dear,
For you know you were exhaust-
ed with the flurry yester-
year.
Please go out and get the trin-
kets for the prattling lit
tie ones
" Get the engines and the candy
and the pistols and the
' guns;
Better start right out toraor-
rom with your money and
your list
But at 10 o'clock on Christmas
eve you'll think of one
you've missed.
Do your Christmas shopping
early, sister, dear;
Get a card for our rich uncle
that will put him on his
ear.
Get a tie that is hand-painted
for your one and only
beau
He will say it Is too splendid for
a man to wear, you
know.
Work a pillow for the preacher,
and get something for
each friend;
But you'll find you've overlook-
ed one when your shop
ring's at an end.
Do your Christmas shopping
early, do It early, do you
hear?
Let the high cost of 4:vlng give
you neither fret nor fear.
There are friends in other coun-
tries who are very sure to
" write
Ere the f:rs: day of December
heaves serenely into
. sight,
So be ready to remember all the
" people far away
But you'll find you've failed to
get one for some one on
Christmas day.

CARNEGIE'S PEACE FLAX.
Having plenty of .money and being
In the philanthropic b'j?inss Andrew
Carnegie sets aside $10,000, 000 for a
fund to do away with war. For that
amount of money "the steel magnate
evidently believes that the dove of
peace can be made secure forever and"
there will be no need for the battle
ships that are covered with steel from
liis armor plate factories.
But is the Carnegie scheme feas
ible and will his money be productive
of good. Might it not be productive
of inestimable harm? Much will de
pend upon how and where that money
la to be used. Is it to be used for
spreading the gospel of international
peace throughout the United States?
That would do no good for the Am
erican people are peacefully Inclined
already. At this time there Is such
a peace sentiment here that it is al
most impossible for the government
to get .enough money to maintain a
half way efficient navy. The country
is practically without an army and
lias poor coast defenses. We need
no lectures on the subject of peace.
The question of international peace
in one that docs not rest so much
with this country or with the other
white powers of the world as with
the people of the orient. The white
people of th world have climbed the
ladder of civilization to such a helghth
that they are ready to do away with
war to a large extent. Still there Is
more or le?s fighting In progress right
now and It was but a few weeks since
that a European monarchy, Portugal,
uitnewed a. revolution. There are
tutne things even white people are
not yet willing to arbitrate.
With the Asiatics the case Is much
worse. There are men living today
who remember the time when Japa
nese poldiers carried bows and arrows
ai weapons. The Japanese are Just
getting into the game which the Cau
casians have been playing for centur
ies. Japan Is now awakening China
with ber 400,000,000 people. India
with several hundred millions of peo
ple will also come to life lome day.
These people of the orient are not
yet versed In Emerson's philosophy
and they have not had the advantage
f Carnegie libraries. They are several
grades behind our class. They are
busy with a struggle for existence 'and J
find that the orient Is not largo i
enough to hold them all. Economic
conditions have forced Japan to send
people abroad. Economic conditions
forced Japan to fi;ht with Russia In
order to get room for her surplus pop
ulation in Manchuria. -The Mikado
also wants to send his subjects to this
country and the difficulties attend
ant thereon are not yet fully set
tled. Doubtless tlicy will be settled
peacefully. There will probably nevei
be-any trouble between the United
States and Japan. But if there should
Ih trouble it will be racial trouble
and it may not be settled by arbitra
tion. Furthermore trouble with Ja
pan would be serious to this country
because of the Philippines.
Is Carnegie going to preach the
gospel of peace in this country or in
the far east? Will he disarm the Ro
mans or the Huns?
THE COLONEL'S RETCRX.
Roosevelt has spoken and his views '
are sim.'lar to what they were prior i
to his defeat through the coalition
formed between the disgruntled re-
publican bosses of New York nnJ '
Tammany hall. He still believes that 1
this should be "a government of the
people, by the people for the peo
ple"; that the' government should
control the corporations and that the
corporations should not be allowed to i
run the government.
It is evident that the colonel con
siders himself still in the fight and
will not quit simply because his can
didate for governor of XewTork was
not elected. And Roosevelt will win
out, too. Watch him. He may never
be president again. He probably does
not want to run for president again.
But his ideas will be accepted for
they are sound. He voices a senti
ment that is now nation wide and has
been called the progressive spirit.
As to the colonel's desire to see a
radical program carried out by con
st rvatives there are some who wfll
say that it would be Just as well to
have a conservative program carried
out by radicals. There would not be
much difference. But as a matter of
fact neither of the big parties may
now be truly classed as either radical
or conservative. Both parties are di
vided Into radical and conservative
factions. At this time the democratic
party seems to be swinging towards
conservatism while the insurgents
seem about to capture the republican
party. Both parties are looking for
ward to the next presidential election
and from appearances there will be
few
two
actual differences between the
parties when that time arrives.
THEIR FIRST TRYOCT.
Within a few weeks after having
been granted the right to vote the wo
men of Spokane will have to par
ticipate In a spirited election. The
people of Spokane are to vote upon
the commission plan of government
and some other questions are also in
volved. "The question involved is not one
of politics, but primarily one of the
home," says the Spokesman-Review.
"Upon the result of the election de
pends to a considerable extent this
sort of city that Spokane is to become.
"The many elements which go to
make up the environment of a citj
are largely determined by the nature
or its government. If the dive keep
er and the grafter and the corrupt
politician are allowed to exert their
power, that government is bad. If
they are held in check and kept from
power, that government is good.
"The opportunity is now presented
to the women of Spokane to decide
whether they wish bad government or
good government, whether they want
their children brought up in an en
vironment which is determined by the
people, or by the politicians.

"The contest to be decided on De
cember 28 is not solely between the
commission form of government and
the present form of government, nor
i'l it entirely a contest between effi
ciency and inefficiency, but it Is, In
an underlying sense, a contest be
tween the forces . In municipal life
that are clean and decent and those
that are not."
It will be Interesting to watch how
the women vote.
If It cost ten million dollars to start
a move for International peace then
It seems that peace Is expensive as
well as war.

font burns steadily for nine hours, without smoke or smell. An
indicator always shows the amount of oil in the font. The filler
cap, put in like a cork in a bottle, is attached by a chain. This
heater has a cool ha'ndle and a damper top.
The Perfection Oil Heater has an automatic-locking
flame spreader, which prevents the wick from being turned
high enough to smoke, and is easy to remove and drop back, so
the wick can be quickly cleaned. The burner body or gallery
cannot become wedged and can be unscrewed in an instant for
rewicking. The Perfection Oil Heater is finished in japan or
nickel, is strong, durable, well-made, built for service, and yet
light and ornamental.
