A negro was worth a good many drinks in those days, and the Father of his Country was evidently a discriminat ing toper, for as he owned a distillery of his own, he knew the difference between newly made moonshine and "rare old spirits" and also the value of variety for punches for the cock-tail had not been invented. In his biographies it is said that the first thing he did in the morning was to take a drink of rum, and at his dinner he had cider or beer, fin ishing up with two glasses of Mederia wine. All of which shows what a horrible example George Wash ington set and how much more virtuous we are today. Men and morals change and nowadays it is against the law not only to sell negroes but to barter for booze. It is question able' whether the Father of his Country would recognize his native land and its institutions were he to return and he certainly would have a hard time under the Volstead act this Fourth of July celebrating independence. Jazz and Flappers Jazz and flappers have found a champion in the person of Andre Tridon, noted psychologist and pyscho-analist, who flays "fool reformers" as meddlers with nothing else to do, "declaring that jazz should be our national pastime, as it is "the decent satisfying of our gorilla instincts." He says : "Jazi should be encouraged. It Is the modern saturnalia which allows us to satisfy our gorilla instincts in a ball room In a per fectly nice, decent, orderly and open manner. It is an excellent substitute for alcohol. There la not enough fun in our present world, but Jaz allows for the breaking down of stiff, formal social barriers and provides tor an atmosphere conducive to decent fun and sport. "Jazz should bo our national pastime. It provides an outlet for our excera energy." Turning to the flapper, tile noted psychologist character ized her as "the hope of the modern world, a revolt against government by old maids." He declared: "God bless her for her picturesque costume and original ways. She adds color to the drabneas of the city. The flapper of today will be a better mother than the mothers of the past, because she will grow up with her children, mln'gle with them, understand them and love thorn." Whether we agree with the above or not, it is quite evi dent that both 'jazz and the flapper have come to stay and we might as well make the best of them.

"Overlook," Fifty Years Ago woman in i.ynn, Mass . was steeping herbs on her kitchen Move according to a recipe of her own, to furnish medicine for the women of the neighborhood. To day, a stone's throw from the lit tle house where she lived, there is a four story laboratory, making the same medicine for the women of the world. During the last year almost 50(1 tons of carefully se lected herbs were used in the man ufarture of I.ydla E. Piukham's Vegetable Compound. A woman's medicine for wo iiaa i ailment. Have you tried lit Margaret's Plan "I believe, John,- said Claver ing. "that Milt's feeling for Mar garet Eerie is greater than the usual emotion that men call love. His devotion is composed of pity, regard and respect, friendship and a very little passion. "He pities her when he thinks of her splendid attainments and knows that she Is throwing her self away on a man like Harry Olendening. He has a wholesome respect, however, for her courage In acknowledging that love, as well as In denying it when she found that he did not love her as she did him. "His regard and friendship for her come from his admiration of ber intellect and their community of tastes. "I do hope that neither of them let any foolish memories of what has gone before prevent them from being happy in the future. It will be a tragedy if Margaret comes home with Glendenlng still In her heart. "But you never can tell - Just what two people will do. In fact you never can tell Just what one person will do under any circum stances." "That's what makes life inter esting, Jim," remarked Davis. "That is why we all bate to leave it we're always looking to see what will happen next. "A great mistake was made In describing the orthodox heaven as a place where everything was de cidedwhere every doubt and fear was obliterated, and where everyone knew Just what every thing would be throughout all eternity, "Yes, it Is rather a stupendous thought, and rather tiring too," answered Clavering rising. "I'm going to turn in, John, I feel as though I had not slept for a week." "A good idea," smiled Davis. "What the morrow brlngeth no man knoweth." Davis sat for some time after Clavering left, trying to work out a solution to the drama that had been played up almost to the final curtain during the last few days. At last with a gesture that showed that he did know how it was all going to end, he rose and went toward the door to a knock. A messenger boy was waiting with a cablegram. Hastily tearing it open, he read : "Clavering's cable received. Am sailing tomorrow on Acquitania. It Dr. Milton does not improve, advise me by wireless. "Margaret Earle." As though the message answer ed one of his questions, Davis put the message into his packet with a sigh of relief and went up to bed. He had the morning papers brought to him early but there seemed to be nothing particular ly new in them. Adams had been held for murder in the first de gree and the date for the trial had been set for a month hence to allow time for the recovering of Olendening whose testimony was needed. The notice of the funeral of Mrs. Milton was printed conspic uously, saying that the obse quies were private. There was a notice to the ef fect that Harry Olendening had changed for the better, and that his wife who had withdrawn her potitlon for divorce, would prob ably visit him in the afternoon. There was also a long account of the burial of Claire Adams and a description of the domeanor of her husband at the grave. One reporter had made quite a pitiful story out of it. He was ev idently a chap with much imag ination, sympathy and under standing, and he drew his picture with sure and clever strokes. Da vis found tears In his eyes when he reached the end and read: think In the lives of most wo men and men That all would go smooth and even; If ouly the dead would Just know when To come back and be forgiven.

Capital Journal Want Ad3 Pay 'tMMMMM Li 1; E- T - J" When a lawyer gives you advice, he is apt to consider his own interests before yours. You can't be satisfied with an old car after your neighbor buys a new one. Take people as they are, and you can get more out of them than by trying to make them over. None can succeed in politics without being ex pert in making promises and offering excuses. Why not combine Decoration Day and Easter, and add another pay day to the calendar?
