Not a Chriatiait ItatifB The alteration of an Eighteenthcentury treaty to make It declare the United States was not a Christian nation has been revealed after remaining a secret for 128 years. The altered document bears the regular ratification of the senate. $Offie f>b?cnre copyist or fomilater |0 to tiaTS ujadehi^ Cutujge. David' Hunter Miller, treaty editor, has no explanation other than the suggestion that It might have been the work of some ardent advocate of secular freedom, possibly s disciple of Thomss Paine. The ststement appears in Article 11 of a treaty of "peace and friendship" •egotiated with Tripoli by an Amfcrlacn sea rover, Capt Richard O'Brien, November 4, 179®. Although spotted with sea water and yellowed with age, the instrument still is legible. On alternate pages are the Arabic and English texts, the latter declaring: "As the government of the United States of America was not in any way founded on the Christian religion---as If has in Itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Musselmen, and as the same state never has entered into sny war or act of hostility against any Mohammedan nation, it Is declared by the Parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever interrupt the harmony existing between the two conatrfefc" • Fooli.kiTi.tiu Mor Ill-humor, wrote Goethe, is nothing •ore than an inward feeling of our own want of merit, a dissatisfaction wfch ourselves which is always united with an envy that foolish vault# tm- Purity Ice Co.

Or phone McHenry It is now evident that President Hoover's suoMuer in Washington and his camp along the Rapldan will ho anything hut dulL ' His recent trip to the Middle West, when he unloaded a number of speeches, has brought him assurances that the targets he set up will draw fixe; His statements are taken as unmistakable signs of his candidacy for re-election. This condition inspires conmtee. blasts from his enemies in the Republican cany and from the opposition party. Mr/Hoover's admirers feel that he has adopted the right tactics in conserving Us physical strength and refraining from tow tours this year. They believe that he will need his full energy to carry the donble lead of a President' and a candidate next year. Congressional leaders who are away from Washington are taking soundings from a distance. They are endeavoring to detect the direction *ef politics* winds at Washington before committing themselves to nicoe propositions. For instance, the politicians are particularly chary with the new Hoover "plan** submitted to the public at Indianapolis last week. This proposal deals with long-range planning by government and industry for the next 20 years with an increase of twenty millions in population and four million homes. It is a subject so far in the future that practical politicians regard it as something of a dream and talk about jt accordingly. Just now their hope Is to minimise the effects of the depression before the voters register their views- The aftermath of the Conference of Young Republicans is not to the liking of veteran party leaders. Reports coming from younger party workers as delivered to their elders in the home town have given rise to grnve concern. Curiously enough the opposition party, the Democrats, have little or nothing to do with the matter. It is strictly G. O. P. family affair. It appears that instead of developing zealous Republican missionaries, the recent conference here brought out mental indigestion resulting from overfeeding the delegates with oratory. Mr. Fess and Mr. Lucas of the G. O. P- high command wanted to inspire these potential Republican evangelists as a means of keeping the partisan fires burning throughout the land. The youngsters wanted to discuss ;ie»I Kuairs, such as organizing clubs, drafting by-laws and the multitude of details essential to a concerted drive for votes. The managers blundered in preaching too much and planning too little. The enthusiasm of the selected party orators could have been contagions. Instead, the absence of stop-watches on the speaker's table aroused the latent boredom of youth, and then deadly resentment and indifference. The evangelical spirit may be developed by correspondence and careful cultivation. Meantime the real problem is to overcome the errors of endless talk at the conference of Republican youths. T^f foreign visits of Secretary of the Treosury Mellon and Secretary of Mate Stimson give abundant reasons for expecting a prolonged discussion of debts and reparations at the next session. No doubt the discussions will set the stage for Senators Borah, ulass, Johnson and others posing as experts on international relations and high finances. A weel-informed Britisher writing home on this sub- !w !!Cent,y exPreM®d the opinion that there would be plenty of talk but no action on the debt question. His views are reflected in official Washington, for the Britisher said of the debt settlement, "The Administration cannot touch it; Congress is immovable; the public is uninformed." The last item explains the failure to take up the little sum of seven billion dollars owed to this country. The death-knell of legislation for resale price maintenance is foreseen m the report of the Federal Trade Commission to Congress. The report revealed a split within the ranks of the Commission, a difference which will be accentuated when the proponents of the legislation have the floor in the Senate and House next December. Senator Capper of Kansas and Representative Clyde Kelly of Pennsylvania have been foremost in the promotion of the bills. The plan called for governmental regulation of price maintenance which, to the surprise of its critics, the Federal Trade Commission, does not approve. There was much talk of the consumer but the issue was really between manufacturers of trade-marked goods nT"* groups of dealers with the public only an innocent bystander. sfTHX) bad you can't go, Marge, Did * you put in both chicken and ham sandwiches?

The word "general" here signifies "the general public." Caviare, the Russian condiment made from the roe of the sturgeon, was then considered a new^ and fashionable delicacy, but was not obtainable by nor relished by the common people. Consequently, anything which falls to achieve popularity because it Is thought to be above the popular taste or comprehension may be considered as "caviare to the general" " jsuwfr.-i" '.mi afVu, , " Coverammtat llamfcHs' The government's yearly 1 pay roU within the District of Colombia Ja ea» " at fUMP--O --tm • greet twjjps -gf sandwichai tunl cskea anW>R gw^w-jeodlaa K only she could hare geoe!

"That means that 1*11 have to take his place," Marjorie reflected. "Oh, wel|, just one more thing." And She tied on a white apron over her Simpie dark frock. She hated to fFhe ted rdoffl waft crowded for aln" ner that evening. There wasn't enough chicken--Mrs. Whitcomb was alwftyl advertising chicken dhiners for Saturday night and then not buying enough chicken 1 Some of the people didnt want to have roast beef Instead, and were awfully disagreeable about it, as if it had been Marjorie's fault that the chicken gave out. And one man moved suddenly snd hit Marjorie's elboW just as she was setting a cupful of coffee down in front of him. and the caff** spilled all over his wife, who was furious, and blamed Marjorie. And the cook lost her temper atad said she'd leave the next day, and Marjorie's head sched. She was glad when at last everyone had gone. It was late, and few passersby went along the little side street on which the tea room was located. Nearly all the candles were out; only a few were still burning, but the firelight made up for them. Marjorie took one last look around, and then sst down before the fire. She conld have cried now, when there was nobody around, but somehow she didn't want to. She was too tired. Some one came into the room. Marjorie sighed. People were always coming In after dinner was over, if you were particularly worn out, and asking if they could have something to eat. Oh, well, she could heat up some beef and vegetables, and there was an apple pie-- "Marjorie r A man's voice, behind her. "Marjorie, aren't yii going to speak to me!" She turned quickly to face Carl Waite. "Oh, Carl, how do you happen tofce here?" she asked. Her voice was shaky with fatigue and excitement "Came back from the party early," he answered, sitting down beside her. "I wanted to see you." "But--but it's too late for us to go now," she said. "To go back there. I mean. You see--" "Of course It is," ha answered, "1 came quite awhile ago. I glanced In and saw you waiting on the table--" "Oh !n she exclaimed. She hated to think that he had seen her like that; she must have reminded him of the second maid in his mother's home 1 "And, Marjorie, you looked so--well. I stood there staring through the window. Marjorie, I love you. Xou know It, don't you, <}earT "But I--why, I work--your father and mother--" "They'd be mighty proud to have you in the family, a girl of your pluck," be answered. "Anyway, I love you so much that It wouldn't make any difference If they did object. 1 wanted to see you so much tonight, snd when you didn't come with the other girls I was so disappointed, then suddenly I realized that I loved you. So I left the first minute I could slip away, and came back here so fast that I must have made a record. Marjorie, are you going to marry me?" Marjories answer was friirjtjl In. his coat collar.
