KirTH.,}' have you heard about the hog Since it is worth its weight in gold I They keep a heater in its pen And give it quinine for a cold. I You wouldn't know the lucky brute Since pork went up to thirty cent-, They pet it so and keep it in Such unheard-of magnificence. I The farmer always tastes the food To see if it will make him ill. I And rich and appetizing soups Are given it instead of swill. The best and roost expensive foods Are set before it without stint, And indigestion is forestalled By capping them with creme de mint. You wouldn't know it for a sty The hog is quartered in to-day. It has a ventilating fan. A roof, a skylight and a spray: And how it sleeps, eats, drinks and feels. And how to safeguard it from harm. Is all they think and talk about These piping days upon the farm. The farmers lie awake o' nights Devising prophylactic troughs. The doctors fly from farm to farm Examining hiccups and coughs: And nowadays when farmers meet Each other out upon a jog Their first and most solicitous Inquiry is, "How is your hog?" March was the favorite month of the old Romans and the beginning of their year. It was named for Mars, their god of war, and con tinued to rank the other months un til 44 B. C., when the peace party in the senate allied with the insurg ents and reduced it to third place on the calendar. Brutus and some ofh ers cared less for war and more for business: so they made Jaunarv, named for the Two-Faced Janus, the beginning of the year, and the month of Februus. who typified the dark and evil ways of business, to immediately follow. Caesar, who was speaker of the senate, stood pat on the old calendar upon the ground that while war,assome one had said, is hell, business, when it reaches the trust stage, is a good deal heller. A few regulars of the war party supported him, but the allies were irresistible, and he was finally stabbed. Revising the calendar was as great an issue in Roman politics as revis ing the tariff has become in oui own. and more than one brave leader laid down his life for the division of time as he thought it ought to be or his party had pledged. The Romans discovered very early in their history that it is in the nature of man to re vise something, and they finally agreed upon the calendar as the thing over which the politicians could fight with the least damage to the peace and prosperity of the peo ple as a whole. The melancholy days will pass, and spring will come again to freshen up the faded grass and wake the hearts of men. The groundhog will awake again indorsed, upon the whole—and the geese will march across the sky to see about the pole. The thrill of Bpring will run along the backbone of the calf. He'll buck and dance upon the mead and hoist his hinder half. He'll dream of blooming clover fields and waving curlvdock, and gambol with his rigid tail stuck up at 6 o'clock. The blithesome rneadowlark will sing the glories of the dawn, and the robin will turn somersets upon the greening lawn. The spring-intoxi cated colt will do-si-do about, the festive frog will wake to help the Weather Bureau out, the poor con sumer will rejoice and hope for bet ter luck, the meat trust sit around and damn the coming garden truck. On the 4th Mr. Taft will celebrate his first anniversary in the White House with a masquerade. There has never been a masquerade there, but Mr. Taft is very anxious to have everybody come, and. in view of the unsettled political conditions, the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy and some other things, he feels that as long as nobody can determine posi tively who else is present, there will be no occasion for any one staying away. Pink tea will he served, and there will be a picture of Mr. Roose velt under the coal pile in the base ment. Take-offs on the consumer. I allusions to June 15, costume canea 1 tures of Speaker Cannon and other cussedness that democrats, insur gents or Pinchot men may be up to, will be censored at the door. And then the ides will come around In sorrowful progression, And ail the peanut carts will form In annual procession. 1 he "i! whistle up and down the street Their shrilly admonition. And bid us think upon the price Of temporal ambition. .1 It terrible the way we are dis heartened by example. It matters not which way we turn, we always see a sample of some one like us who aspired at unaccustomed angles, and always got it in the end where Cora wore the bangles. Yc-u know the Romans understood our metes and 1 limitations, and what foois are we that aspire above our lowly stations, They used to have a man to meet the victor heme from battle and mount behind his chariot, amid the I din and rattle, and. while his vanity was roused with great acclaim, to chortle and keep repeating in his ear. "Remember, vou are mortal!" They kept a lot of Romans straight That otherwise had strayed: But. anyway, the seventeenth The Irish will parade In memory of him who did t••••v For Irish snakes the same As Roosevelt is doing now Ruwenzori game. Mr. Morgan will continue his flight from Haliey's Comet, passing through Paris about the 5th. Mr. Rockefeller, emboldened by his es cape from Judge Land is, will not run. It is likely, however, that his benefactions will discreetly increase as the comet continues to approach. Mr. Carnegie will also give away money on a larger scale now. The moon will be on the celestial equator on the 12th. This will be a fortunate combination for Pinchot, and he may be able to make a point that some of the rest of us can see. The Spring Equinox will come on the 21st. The storm will be central around Ballmger's job, and will con tinue until the 25th, when the moon will be full. If the sky is clear we shall be able to see whether he is still on said job. and, if so, what is probably holding him up. And then the April wind will blow From Araby afar. And on the 1st we shall recall What fools we mortals are. Th« Forbidden Fruit. The botanical curiosities of the Is land of Ceylon are replete with varied Interest. One if them is "the forbid den fruit." or "Eve's apple tree." It9 native nam'- is diwi kadura, kadura Eisrnifriiic "forbidden" and diwl "ti gers."

This '•ircu instance, together with the fact of its being a deadly poison, led the Mohammedans on their first discovery of Ceylon, which they assigned as the site of paradise, to represent It as the forbidden fruit of the garden of Eden, for, although tbe finest aDd most tempting in appearance of any, It had been Impressed, such was their idea, with the mark of Eve's having bitten it to warn men from meddling with a substance possessing such noxious properties It Is agreed on all sides that as a rule humorous advertisements are to be avoided.
