''-m' TRWiBVS fMftOUSfOQT I was "a thing of beauty," but a pretty foot encased in a handsome pair of shoes from our stylish, well titting stock is "a joy forever," be cause they are simply perfection. No cores, bunions or cramped feet from wearing our tine shoes In morning golden with life's promise, Gleams the beckoning hand of joy, Fair, elusive on she flitteth, Now draws near, retreating coy. Through the thickets youth pursueth, Passing blossoms gayly rare, Seeing naught of heaven's beauty In the sky and grass and air. By the streamlet's edge she lingers, Lost to sight in dream-like mist; In he plunges to discover Joy beyond in sunlight kissed. Thus he wanders e'er pursuing Down the years till youth be past, Hope abateth, then it chanceth Clasps the lovely form at last. But is this Joy, large-eyed and sad, With self-effacement in her look? Not Joy, that careless-hearted maid, Her form, her sister Sorrow took. Annie Miller. Perkins and Sheldon 1129 O Street. l i i Senators and Legislatures. The Kentucky legislature has recently asked Senator Lindsay to resign because he is not in favor of the free coinage of silver. This action has been followed by the introduction of a resolution in the New York assembly requesting the resig nation of Senator Edward Murphy, Jr., ot this state, becausa he voted for the Teller resolution. Neither of these reso lutions is of any real importance, al though government of the nation by state legislatures would doubtless be quite as intelligent as government by the present United States senate. The Kentucky legislature does not really ex pect Senator Lindsay to vote against bi3 convictions, nor do the republicans of the New York state legislature expect Senator Murphy to think of an thing but his machine, and the sufficient pro tection of collars and cuffs.
