The matrons and society leaders of
South park, Chicago, becoming dis
f.Ud at the way in which the city
dada are not keeping the streets clean
have decided to tuck up their skirl
and lake tbeir brooms and have a
spring cleaning of their own. Some
thing will surely be done, for ween

and broad.
THE KAISER UNEASY.
Tho manner iu which the German
authorities are suppressing reports of
the kaiser's speeches would make it
appear thai his royal highness is talk
ing too much. The recent attempt
open the kaiser's life seems lo hare
shaken his nerves and loosened the
wheels in bis head. As the masses of
the German empire become better
educated and learn from America some
of the advantages of a republic, they
are more inclined to question the doc
trine of the divine right of royalty and
the recent almost strange utterances of
their ruler do not lend to increase tbeir
respect. The emperor is righl in say
ing that trying limes are coming. The
Oerman masses are crying out hatd
times and when they fully realize what
burden of taxation their gaudy roy
ally is becoming, thai royalty may
well look for trouble.
-Mrs. Nation may have the sympathy
of a great number of the women of our
land iu her hatchet war against the
liquor business, but when she decrys
the Easier bonnet and tells the fair
damsels of the sunflower slate to gird
their loins with sack-cloth, which is an
indirect attack on the tailor-made
gown, she will cause them to denounce
her as a crank.
