NO APPETITE
I AM fired of lioili-d potatoes. I am tired of prunes and
slaw; I am tired of stewed tomatoes, and of prcdi-j'-ested
straw. .And the dame who cooks the vittles
slieds a sad, discouraged sigh, as slie takes her knife
and whittles apples for the daily pie. All our lives wo
are repeating aneient mealtime stunts, by jings: out
grows t ii'ed at last of eating, sis he tires of other things.
()nee ihe horn that sounds for dinner made my pulses
travel fast; oh, it seemed a four-time winner when I
heard its welcome Mast; like a kangcroo I sprinted,
from the distant field I flew, when the brazen trumpet
hinted that, the pork and beans were due.' Hut my
lummy then was younger than it e'er will be again, and
it knew the pangs of hunger that are felt by husky men.
That; was in a season olden, on a happy vanished day,
when my sideboards, bright and golden, showed no
grizzled strands of gray. Oh, the years arc short and
fleeting, they have flown on whizzing wings; and I'm
weary now of eating, as I'm tired of other things; and
the dame who has the habit of arranging grub for hip.
murmurs as she fries the rabbit and prepares the senna
tea.

Ambitions Not Vet Dead
"ll must md be J'orirntfen, Senator,
thai, this article constitutes a renun
ciation of wi'miir ambition on the part
of powerful nations with whom we
were associated in the war. It is
by no means certain that without this
article tiny such ren uncial ion will
take place. Militaristic ambitions
and imperialistic policies are by no
means dead, even in Ihe counsels of
tbe nations whom we most trust and
with whom we most desire lo be as
sociated in the tasks of peace,
Throuuhoiit Ihe sessions of Ihe con
ference in Paris il. was evident thai
a miiitarist;e party under the nnv

Prance. Thev were defeated then,
but are in control now. The chic!

imperialistic doim.s on the part of
other nations as I was nf such de-

"The Imperialist wants no league
of nations, hut if, in respt.nse to the
universal cry of the masses every

and t he inevitable wars attendant

see Ihe old game played again? Pan
anyone realty venture to take part in
leviviim the old order? The enemies
of a league of natit.ns have by every

only bulwark of the rising democracy
