NATION" KKADY
Tomorrow President Wilson ap
rears before a joint session of tht
law makers at Wusliiugton and wil
a.-k tc»r authority to handle tht
Mexican situation. This is Uh
nearest move to % declaration o!
war that can be made by thie ad
niinfc-traiive and executfve forces »1
the caultal city.
People are now tired of tlx
Mexican situation. It has strunj
ou* ove«r a period of at least thre«
yr-ars. At least each week ha«
witnessed a raid or skirmtBh by th<
two factions A demand note has
been forwarded to the Mecilcan cap!
tal. It is asserted that If th<
demands ere not Immediately com.
plied wife that the Unltod States
will back the note up Jay iRilttary
force. This maatrs au uiv"«&hua of
Mexico. >
The response on the part of the
various dtate Guards to the call
issued lias been magnificent. Ttie
troops are wadtlng in the oratories
of every state for release orders to
send them to the border ltne for
active yarvice. Patriotism runs
deep 'n the hearts of the average
American citizen. For his country
he is willing to fa*ce the shot and
shell of the enemy. Those re
sponsible for the actions of tue
I'uiltrd States as a nation should
take into consideration that their
actions effect th« entire population
aud a standard must be maintained
by th« nBiUon, If the finaj word
is war, 'hen we stand ready and
willing to defend the rights of out
couu*ry—If it is a politioal move—
then the blood stained bunds of the
resposlole parties are traitors to
• he nation.

Say. Mr. Citizen, what have you
dune for your 'own thiis I^'st wtek?
Remember the Commercial Cluto slo

Heretic.
The word "heretic" la derived from
the Greek halreo. to take or choose for
oneself.
Tolling the Difference.
"No. sir; not a penny:" was the re
ply of young Ardup'a opnlent but Im
movable relative. "I've lent you more
money already than you will ever pay
back. You can shift for yourself
heocefortb. The difference between
as Ls that I am provident and you are
Improvident."
"The difference between us." vehe
mently retorted young Anhip. with
his hand on the doorknob, "ls that I'm
a man of moderate means and you're
a man of immoderate meanness!"
Then he fled.—Pittsburgh Telegraph.
Severe Teet.
A young man given to purple and
tine linen, but not at all addicted to
work, watted upou a prominent citizen
tud asked for his daughter's baud.
"What are your prospects?" aske<1
■item papa.
The young man was rather lndetl
nlte on this point, but finally blurted
out that, although he hud no iwsltlon
at the time, he would die for the young
lady In question.
"All right." suapi**d the father. "(Set
insured for Jlo.OOO and make good."

her.
"Why. Bessie." wonderlnglv exclaim
the young matron, recognizing the
newcomer, "what In the work} are you

"I'm looking for a husband, dear."
was the quiet response of the other.
•'A husband!" exclaimed the first, full
of perplexity. "Why. you have a hus

INDECISION.
There i* no mora miaerable
being than ona in whom nothing
ia habitual but indaoiaion and
for whom tha time of rialng and
going to bed every day and tha
beginning of every bit of work
are aubjecta of volitional delib
eration. Full half tha time of
aueh a man goes to the deciding
or regretting of mattere that
ought to be eo ingrained in him
aa practically not to exiet for
hie conacioueneee at all.
MAN'S REAL WORTH.
A man ahould alwaya be
judged by hia real worth. Tha
pravailing fault of our time ia
the aatimating of manhood by
the acsidenta of Ufa rathar than
by ita essentia la- Not what a
man hae or what happena to
him; not wealth, nor noble
blood, nor crawiM, nor titlee, but
tha thing* that ara in him and
ahining through him; hia
thoughta, motives, springs of
action — these constitute tha
man.—O. J. Burrall.

YOUR NEW BUNGALOW.
Hint* About Furnithing the Small
Summer Cottage.
| There are uiany houses in excellent
i taste and more or less modern where
the latest novelties in painted ware,
furniture and the like are decidedly out
I of place, but Just picture a dear little
buugalow on squatty, colonial lines
aching to be furnished with Just these
odd little painted bits of brightness.
' If the hall seems a bit somber you
may set on the table besides the white
candle base lamp painted with birds
and flowers and topped with a colored
silk shade, a white rack of tin for let
ters. At first you might think It n
toast rack, but you wouldn't want to
put toast between flowers and birds
in gaudy coloring, it's Just the re
ceptacle. however, for exciting things
like letters.
Near a side door on a small table or
from a book on the wall place a bright
green painted tin basket to hold the
gardening tools. A garden hat of cre
tonne may hang from it. They will
help In the decorative scheme.
In the suuuiest window of the living
nr dining room you may have a white
wicker flower stand, it is fitted with
a tin trough which lifts out for re
filling, watering of the plants, etc. An
arch of white wicker extends over this
box. and one can Just imagine a small
climbing rose finding Its way along this
trellis. A white bird cage Is suspended
in the middle directly above the plant
box. where u silver throated canary
may trill bis loudest among the plants
aud flowers.
Right In the same living room or on
the porch one may tuck this mending
lasket without any fear of Its Jarring
on the artistic and critical eye. It is
a nice, plump market basket of stout
wit ker, rather round as to shape. Two
flaps of stiffened cretonne are edged
with a cotton braid aud maybe lifted
up like the lids of a market liasket
This will be found a dustproof biding
place for mending or light sewing when
the outdoors beckons.
On Being Natural.
The world has established certain
standards of etiquette for those who
would lie recognized as well bred and
cultured. The earlier In life these
standards are adopted the better for
the woman Fortunate. Indeed, is she
who has cultivated early In life a soft
voice, poise, grace of carriage and the
•pretty" way of doing things. She
need have 110'fear that in a moment of
exclti mcnt she will forget herself and
be guilty of a faux pas.
Absolutely destructive of naturalness
iu m.nuner Is self consciousness. This
affliction amounts at times almost to
an obsession. It causes women to
I shout who wish to speak low: It leads
| often to an assumption of bravado,
causing criticism that may be unjust,
but is Invited and unavoidable.
It is a gentle art, the art of being
iiatmal: one that is essential to every
womrm who wishes to be regarded as
interesting, attractive and popular. No
woman with an ounce of brains will
allow herself to become the victim of
affectation if she would get the most
that is possible out of life.
Rich Strawberry Shortc*K».
Tw.» cupfuls of flour, quarter of a
| cupful of sugar, four teaspooufuls of

Do«t Anger Correct?
Not 80 long ago w e passed a small
garden In which stood n sunny haired
baby plucking from a rose the bright
red petals and watching them float like
fairy Heats to the green grass at her
feet. Then came a storm and a trag
edy. A dark being sprang from no
where with a terrible shadow upon
his face and harsh tvords upon hl3
lips. The being shook the baby rough
ly by the arm. The baby was smiling
like an augel. There was anger In
that clutch at the rose child's arm, and
there was a blow In the words that ac
companied the grasp. Then the creature
weut away, and we rubbed our eyes In
wonder because It was dressed like a
woman.—Los Angeles Times.
Putting Him In His Place.
John Morrison, mi elderly Scot hilrd,
had an ancient valet named Gabriel,
whose petulance nntl It etise of speech
went so fur as to l>e intolerable. One
Joy at dinner Gabriel tools the liberty
of calling something which his master
said "a great lee."
"Weel," said the laird, really offend
ed and rising from the table, "this will
Jo no longer We must part at last."
"Hout. tout!" replied Gabriel, firess
Ing his master Into the chair. "Whaur
wad her honor be better than In yer
aln hoose?"
