the company which controls the fiah

Thv third ?u a very sentimen
tal reason, but I auu inclined to
thank that it is bein*; demonstrated
by the events of later ye?rs. I said
that the climate and scenery of Al

a land of unequaled -ublinti'y and
ttrarldeur Th? Alps have brought
millions of dollars into Switicrland
The White mountains have brought

smile as I told him that the people
of the I'nlted State* world, in time,
want to visa Alaska for the sake of
the (wnvry. I said I might not
live to ace th< time, but that a na

NON-COMBATANTS SUFFER MOST
War news from Mexico is contra
dictory and un..rt*in. after the fash
tun of war nvwt in general, but the
ob . fact which stands out cloarlv and
beyond dtepote is the crvat suffering
which i? being inflicted upon non-core?
batanta. When food runs short
t'irough the interruption of Iht regu
lar mean* of transportation, the sol
<l"*cs get first chance at what s left
The? hav? the power o take it and
others go hungn When the govern
ment forces ne?*d supplies belonging
to civilians they seiie what they re
qtdrv The insurgents do the same
when they have the chance.
V la a sad picture of the Injustice
and cruelty of war. even when the
fighting Is on a small male and the
ft ices Involved are hardly worthy
c t notice, by the standards of mt Ki
el u military powers The women and
thildren who hare nothing to eat are
Just as wretched as they could be If
tcrce; armies were operating In the
barren mountains and arid valleys of
Northern Mexico.
In the end there will be some gahv
to offset a little of this evil and suf

WASTING TIME.
When I was youns I wasted time
n -*?ating o'er the prose anil rhyme
>: grand old bards and fcages, men
v orld famed as uiasler* of the pen
v* hen these old masters had a
thought they hid it 'neath a ton of
tot. and one must dig and claw and
take to find the meaning of each
Urvak The highbrows told me 1
must scratch around that verbal gar
den patch if 1 would store my youth
ful mind with thought-gems, bril
i .ant and refined. And all that work
was thrown away: and now that I
aci bald and gray, no longer by am
bition firvd. the grand old writers
tnake mc tired I do not care how
...cat his fame. 1 care not for a
l?ret's game, unless he makes his
n<i aning clear; if I must dig for half
a year, to find what he it driving at.
I'll throw his value at the cat. There
is no sense in writing dope that
makes the reader dig and grope. The
writer who is truly great is he who
i.ishes up his freight of burning
'houchts in words so plain that any
- :h half a brain gets wise t?
ahat ho has to say. and reads ami
put* his book away. The skilful
[?raftsman turns his hand to writing
