Tlien the summer filled with bloom, Happy skies above us all, Then a day of dark and gloom And the first cold frost of fall.

Winter follows, long and drear, Bitterly the blizzards roar, SEASONS Then a robin's song we hear And the spring has come once more. So with lis, whoe'er we be. Trouble frets us for awhile, Hurt and grief'fall bitterly. Then it comes our time to smile. Joy is followed by the tear.

Grief and all its hours of pain, Then a friendly voice we Life is at the spring again. tCopyright, 1922, by Edgar A. Guest.)

"I'll let you manage Mrs.

beyond me." THE SKY THE LIMIT. will be no Newberry scPiidal following this fall's election. This is assm'e is no legal reason why any senatorial candidate should file his earnpaign expenses. He may epehd a million, if he has it to spend and is willing to turn it loose, and will never be under obligations to make the fact known. Tlie sky is the limit.

This dangerous condition of things, not to say. outrageous, is another example of the notorious lack of accomplishments of the recent congi'ess. When the supreme coiirt knocked out the corrupt practices act, in the Newberry case, it was supposed that congress would hasten to pass another similar measure, correcting the, legal weakneses in the original act- But congress failed to dp anything of the kind. In part, blame for this sin of omission is beihg blamed on Senator Spencer of Missojri. He was chairman Of a special sub-committee on privileges and elections, and he failed to call a meeting of -the committee.

Mnally he went to Europe aiid left the matter in the hands of Senator Pomerene, much delay, held a meeting of the committee at which only three members were present. At this meeting it was decided to recommend a bill.for passage, and it was duly but the republican congressmen were so engi-ossed with- the tariff that they time to pass it. I This sort of neglect is not the kind that goes with gooa statesmanship. And it is not the kind that endears congressmen to their countrymen. Irrespective of the outcome of the Newberry scandal, or of ycfar opinion as to what should have been done about it, you are hot doubtful about the desirability of laws calculated to make it difficult for inoney to.purchase senatorships.

In a republic it is as important to be protected against wealth as against povierty. Even under the most favoi-- able conditions, the rich candidate has an advantage. A'DO-NOTHINCf CONGRESS: There is no genei'al satisfaction with the work of the congress that hias adjoui-ned. Its record is pot one that can be pointed -vyith pride by the administration. Its accornplisihmeht was the enactment of a new tariff; there are malriy people who believe this new tariff embodies mistakes almost inhuinerable.

The essential saving feature of the measui'e, fi-om the standpoint of republicans, is-the clause that will make it sibie for the Presideiit to adjust duties according to the cost of labor at home and abroad. Covering, as it does, soniany different articles, it at least seem that this means an extraordinary extension of the duties of a nation's ecutiyfe; an extension to the point where he is sadly in danger of fulfilling no duty really well. Aside fi-om the tariff, the accomplishments of the congress were negligible indeed. The one measure that is admittedly good is the one that establishes the budget system in government expenditures, and this is a project sought by several earlier administrations and is, in reality, a growth that can not be claimed particularly by the present administration: -Republican spellbinders will be sadly lacking for political thunder when they take the stump to tell how their grand old party has fought for the "dere pepul." They can not point With pAde to enough definite a.ccomplishments to maike an hours' speech, unless they heterogenous pot- pouri of political literature such as they are always 'too glad to do. But this quality of material never really makes amy votes, so the administration adherents raiust be genuinely regretful over their do-nothing congress.

A GOOD START. There can bono quarrel with the report of the "ury at Manpri. A of 214 indictments, 44 of them murder, 58 for cdnspiracy to commit murder and 54 for to murder, sounds as if the grand jury was convinced that "somethftngf ought "to be done about it," irrespective of the attitude. ofi "bloody" Williamson county itself, and at least a pai-t of the citizens of Hei'rih. Portions of report made in cbnnection with the indictments notable.

The chai-ge that the adjutant general of the state and the sheriff of Williamson county alternated in passing responsibility is just about what the newspa- per reports at the time claimed what the Mine Workers' union indignantly denied. The inference i that the sheriff was afraid to' act. against the union men, or did not want to, because he is a union man himself and also because he figured.it might hurt him politically, is boldly stated in the grand jury's report, and Sheriff Thaxton will have an opportunity to explain in court. But, after all, a grand j-ury's report is.only the first step in the program of punishment that ought to be meted out to the massaci-e. Satisfactory first steps have been taken before arid never followed up.

Whether the prosecutors will push tliese indictments as they should be pushed, and whether the courts will permit the stiff defense, that adtenittedly willbe made, to warp the straight edge of jus- to, weaken the public demand for retribution through and numerous delays, remains to be seeri. 'S' What, in your'opinion, the part played by the irijunc- ition in the settleihejpt of the railroad strike? the train as I drew up my car to the station platform. I had just had time to make it after my telephone Diclcy, and I looked nervously over Biy shoulder as I stopped my car to. see if the officious village poiiooman was in stght, for I knew that I had gone well over the speed limit allowed motor vehicles in the village streets. It was evidently my lucky day, however, .1 sprang to the platform, hastening to take one of the packages from Lillian.

I knew that she must be warm, dusty tired, but I could have deduced not one of the three from her appearance. She was as placid, as fresh-looking, as if slie had just stepped from her bedroom door after completing heri toilet, for the day. "I'd like to see you fighting a fire somo day." I bit viciously as we tunied tow.ird the car. "But I suppose you'd emerge as unruffled and peaceful as a summer morniijgT" "Rave on, sweet child," she retorted, "if It amuses you. But, really, I'd, get a ne-w line if I were you.

I'm more ifrazzled when i get through trying to mend something than most women are over a wedding or a death. I can run a sewing machine, and that lets me out."

Tell me, are there anyjthings in that bundle we could take toy our house, to sew? My sewing machine is still there, and If you'll attend to that end of the work I'll talif the rest. If I have a specialty it is hemming, and I suppose that will form the bulk of the work." "Why?" Lillian turned an attentive face toward me. I knew from her tone that she guessed I had some special redson for the request. "Because Dicky is' coming, out on the 4 o'clock train to look over the damage, and I "Of course!" she Interrupted. "We must get that.stuff of yours back in the trunk before he comes.

"If only Du.rkee will think I elghed merttally, but rejoiced that Lillian was there to manage Her Fluffiness. As usual, my belief in my friend's adroitness was justified, for when we had loolfed at and had admired the really exquisite things Lillian had in the shades of rose which, we knew, that the dainty bride digcussed the luncheon Mrs. had Lillian began her campaign by to let every one of us help with the dishes, aren't you?
