The winter, slow dinBgiiis, is spoil Ing our livos; the wild wind are nng gin if like HiMiiiRRimte wives; all day tht?y are ranting, they give us u pain nil night they arc chanting a dippy refrain. The wild winds are bolder than wild winds should be. und keen er and colder than bergs in the sea; they come and deliver a smart nnd a sting, and sufferers shiver and cut mor for spring. And spring will be Mlippln' along pretty booh, and spring In a pippin, with roses offline. And how we will love her, the garlanded wring, when mocklngplrdH hover around ua and sing!

THERE is as much danger to the republic from reac tion masquerading as patriotism as there is from radicalism preaching its destruction. The one tends to wards Prussianism, the other towards Bolshevism. Both seek the destruction of liberty, the suppression of free thought. The triumph of either is fatal to democracy. The American people need no protection from any kind of propaganda. They can be trusted now as they have in the past, to resist both the hysteria of those preaching a divine origin for the constitution and those presenting an insidious appeal for" the rule of the prole tariat. The safety of the nation lies in free discussion of all theories, and the use of the government to throttle discussion and protect the people from ideas is kaiserism. When we have to protect the people from themselves, we cease being a democracy. Following the French revolution, there was an in flux of alien revolutionary ideas and agitation in the United States. Drastic repressive legislation provided in the alien and sedition bill, which suppressed free thought to protect the people, followed. This caused a popular re action and the triumph of 'the principles of the bill of rights. Following the Russian revolution, there has been a similar influx of alien revolutionary ideas and agitation, which is producing drastic repressive legislation similar to that of a century and a quarter ago to protect the peo ple. Yet the ideas of the French revolution did not affect the republic any more than the ideas of the Russian revo lution will alter it now. The people need no protection. Such repressive leg islation only destroys democracy and makes government a despotism and destructive of the ends it was created for, and there is no surer way of fomenting revolution than by laws and government repressive of popular rights and free thought. Such repression created the French revolution and the Russian revolution and will if sanctioned in America, product another revolution here. It is time the after-the-war hysteria su'bsided, that free speech and free discussion were restored, that we cease our midnight raids and unjustifiable seizures on suspicion and deportation without trial, our ousting of legislators for differing in opinion, and go back to Ameri canism and the bill of rights.

The fault is not that of the American people, but of their representatives in the senate, who defy the popular mandate and refuse to act. Representatives of organiza tions representing sixty million people called on the sen ate leaders last week and requested ratificationbut there has been no ratification. Some seventy senators are on record as favoring rat ification yet they permit a minority to prevent action. Surely no such example of impotence and helplessness was ever before presented the nation as this protracted, disgraceful deadlock engineered by partisanship and pre judice.

The only thing that annoyed Cuffy now was that the pot was not bigger. There were still a few beans which clung to the bottom; and try as he would, Cuf fy could not ' reach them, even with his tongue. He was sitting on the ground, with the pot between his legs, and his nose stuck into it as far as Cuffy could get it. But still he could not reach those beans In the bottom. And pretty soon Cuffy began to lose his temper. He stood up and gave a good hard push against the ground. And so he manur ed to squeere his nose a little farther into the bean-pot. And now, to his huge delight, he could just reach the bot tom of the pot with his long under-lip. In a twinkling Cuffy had all the beans In his mouth. And he would have grin ned he felt so happy if his nose hadn't been wedged so tightly into the pot that he couldn't even smile. Since there were no more beans to be had out of tlial pot, Cuffy lifted his head. And to his great astonishment the bean-pot .pame right, off the ground too, almost as if it were alive. It startled Cuffy, until he saw that it was h who lifted the pot, on his own nose. He seized the bean-pot and pulled. But his paws were so greasy with but ter that he couldn't get a good grip on it. The pot still stuck on his nose as fast as ever. Cuffy grunted. He couldn't really have said anything, with his moui. deep In the iron pot. So he Just gmi- ed In a pouting sort of way; and then he gave the pot a sharp rap against a rock. That hurt his nose. And this time he growled as well as he could. But all his grunting and growling didn't frighten the bean-pot the slight est bit. There it stayed, perched on his nose just as if it would never come off. All this time the mowing machine kept up a flick-cluck-click-flack! And Cuffy thought that he had better get out of sight. So he plunged into the for est and started toward home: He felt very uncomfortable, for he began to wonder whether he would ever get rid of that troublesome pot. What puzzled him most was this thought: Would he ever be able to eat again, with that horrid thing over his nose? Cuffy, was very fond of riddles; but here was one that he did not like at all.' When he .reached home his father and mother and Silkie all laughed so hard at the sight of him that Cuffy be gan to whimper. And a big tear rolled from each eye, ran down the bean-pot and dropped off the bottom of it. And then, with Just one tug Mr. Bear pulled the bean-pot off his son's nose; and Cuffy was himself again, He escaped punishment that time, too, and Mrs. Bear was very glad to get such a nice iron pot. She had ! wanted one for a long time. ingly. "It has healed nicely and you will not have much of a scar that will show. But you have had a very close call, and you mustn't talk. I wish I could say to you. 'Do not think! Just will to get well'." At this moment John came back his face all alight as he exctaimea: "I told your mother that you were get ting along famously and that you will be able to go down there within a very short time." "Tou mustn't go too fast, Mr. Gor don," the nurse admonished. "Oh, we won't do that, but surely she'll be out in a month?" "Yes," I said, "I must get to work on those little clothes."

Whatever It might be, it seemed to warm my whole being and strengthen my heart beats. "There, you're getting a faint col or," she said. "It will be only a little while before you are able to go home, I am sure." So invigorating was the effect of the medicine that I asked the nurse to raise me up a little in bed. This she did, deftly, but In doing so put me In a position to see my face in a decorated mirror "that hung at the opposite side of the room. I gave a gasp of surprise. Was that pale face with its fever ishly brilliant eyes and its, back ground of short curly hair, mine? "You've cut my hair," I said sur prised, ! The nurse looked at the mirror with annoyance. "I told tho head nurse," she said, "That If she allowed that looking glass to hang there this would hap pen!.
