POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS.
The News is authorized to announce
W. H. Matthews
as a candidate for the office of Treasurer
of Union County, subject to the action of
the Democratic primary.
Suffrage figures should not dis
courage the girls. They lost it is
true, but it is more fun trying to
win than it is to gain the goal. Be
sides there was never any hope
conservative old Massachusetts,
blase old New York and wicked old
Pennsylvania (.even though it is
the home of Ed Bok of the Lad.
Hum Joinal) would accept the
doctrine that women are every bit
as good as men, politically and
otherwise. Taking it all in all,
considering it is the first time the
question has been mentioned, the
girls did “real well.”
PEACE.
There are no indications that
peace will come to war torn Europe
for many weary weeks. Germany
is said to have made tentative over
tures, but the price demanded pre
cludes any peace. Belgium to re
main the property of the Kaiser is
an unthinkable thing. The neutral
world probably will not let such a
thing come to pass. England, by
demanding the crushing of Ger
many, the shearing of her colonies
and the imposition of an. impossible
indemnity, is asking too much.
France refuses to even disccss the
probabilities of a cessation of the
conflict. And there we are. There
can be no peace until all the pow
ers can be reasonable. Peace,
quite likely, will come after Ger
many and Austria are starved into
submission, or after England has
been Zeppelined. to a “frazzle” and
bankrupted in the bargain; after
France has to id the last boy, a cost
ly sacrifice. t>n the altar of devotion,
all the ki’ngs and emperors and
czars ma’y sit on stable thrones.
Peace pvobably will follow physical
and fin?„ncial exhaustion.
A BOV’S BADGE OF FAILURE.
There goes a boy down street,
hollow chested, a big hat on the
back of his head and a big pipe in
his mouth. He is going home
from school. He might stay at
home for all the good he will do in
the world. If he gets no better
i npluse at school than to light a
oipe when school is out, when he
leave the school at last he will be
lighting a pipe and all hopes of a
noble destiny will go glimmering
from his life.
In the formative period of a boy’s
life he ought to get away from all
norcotics, opiates and stimulants.
It is the chief part of his education
that he gets rid of them. Poison
ing his blood with these things
weakens his will, drives away his
high ideals, depresses his thinking
and loads his life with all sorts of
distressing burdens. For a boy to
go from a good habit to a bad one
is far worse than if he failed to
parse a sentence or work a prob
lem. It is the man education is
after, and not the parser or sum
worker. That boy should stop his
smoking or leave school.

Waistline— Normal, that is in the
place nature intended it to be.
Skirt length—Three to six inch
es from floor.
Skirt width—At least five yards.

Princess gowns—in high favor;
all the smart gowns will be button
ed up the back.

do not think of hearses when au
tumn zephyrs wail, but write some
cheerup verses, and earn nine kinds
of kale. The skies are dark and
dreary, the rains begins to spout,
but people should be cheery un'ess
they have the gout. The wind is
chill and snappy, the earth is dark
and wet, but people should be hap
py. unless they are in debt. The
wind will soon be piling snow drifts
on the plain, but people should be
smiling, unless they are insane. 1
love all kinds of weather. 1 love
the autumn well, when we all sit
together around the fire yell, and
keep the corn a popping, each in
his easy chair; the autumn leaves
are dropping it little do I care.
The autumn leaves are falling; 1
