PEACE IN THE BUSINESS WORLD.
A recent speech of Vice-Presi
dent Marshall in which he set forth
the desirability of promoting peace
between business and the govern
ment instead of conflict and fric
tion, has been heartily approved by
the business world and business
men of all sections. Under Presi
dents Taft and Roosevelt the gov
ernment launched wholesale law
suits against business enterprises
all over the country. In many in
stances the business interests were
unable to understand what the real
aim and policy of the government
was and what benefits to the peo
ple, if any. were sought to be ac
complished. President Wilson has
made his policy clear and it is
this: That one group of men shall
not control a certain business and
by interlocking directorates con
trol several others. He has given
the business world to understand
what they may and what they may
not do, and there is now a very
e'ear and definite understanding
between the government and the
big business interests.
A few weeks ago President Wil
son ma’e the following significant
statement:
“1 gain the impression more and
more from week to week that the
business men of the country are
sincerely desirous of conforming
with the law. and it is very gratify
ing indeed to have occasion, as in
this instance, to deal with them in
complete frankness and to be able
to show that all we desire is an op
pertunity to co-operate with them.
I So long as we are dealt with in this
spirit we can help to build up the
business of the country upon sound
and permanent lines."
As a result of this understand
ing the Morgan group of financeers
which is the dominating financial
power of the country, has with
drawn from active participation in
about thirty of the great corpora
tions and railroads of the country.
This wise and statesman-like poli
cy is now rapidly improving busi
I ness in all sections of the country
! and instead of having unending
legal battle between the govern
ment and business interests, for
which the public has been footing
the bill, we are now entering upon
an era of business peace and pros
perity, and under the beneficial op
eration of the new currency bill
the small business man will have
greater opportunity than he has
ever had before.
CONTEST WITHOUT A TRUCE
Men of Science Always on the Alert to
Discover Cures for Diseases of
the Human Race.
The civilized world always stirs
with flutter of hope whenever the
word goes forth that a new cure for
some disease has been discovered. If
the disease happens to be one of the
great scourges of humanity, like
meer or tuberculosis, the interest
s immediate and intense. The day
has gone when such news could filter
slowly through to the public. The
newspapers, especially in this coun
try, knock at every door. Within
24 hours after a “cure” is an
nounced every one who is old enough
to read knows all about it.
There is a reasonable justification
for the springing hope, for t ime and
again in the past a miracle has ap
pealed. Smallpox, diphtheria, ty
phoid and lockjaw are horrors that
we have passed in our upward climb.
All over the world trained men are
bending over test tphes and gazing
through microscopes in unremitting
efforts to make even the smallest
discovery. TTcrc at last, perhaps, wo
have the sure thing that the world
has been expecting. How can we tell
till we try it ?—Youth’s Companion.
SHE SAW THEM
•« 4 & -—
“I yujipojsc you enjoyed your trip
abroad ?’’
“Ob, yes, immensely.”
“And did you see tlie aqueducts in
Koine ?”
“Yes; and bow I did enjoy see
ing them swim.”
“Seeing what swim?”
“Why, the aqua ducks.”
WASTING TIME.
Enraptured, they gazed, hand-in
hand, upon the beautiful scene
stretched before them in the setting
sun. ’Twas the lake district, and
they but three days upon their hon
eymoon.
“Dearest,” he said, gazing at her
fondly, “isn’t this heavenly?”
“Yes, Reginald,” she softly mur
mured.
“Do you know,” he whispered ar
dently, “to me life does not seem
long enough for our happiness. Just
think, even if we art1 fortunate,
our married life can hardly last
longer than fifty years.”
“Is that all ?” she queried won
deringlv, edging nearer.
“Yes, that’s so,” a touch of sad
ness in his voice. “Only fifty years
in which to love each other.”
“Then kiss me quick, Reginald,”
she exclaimed, “we’re wasting time !”
EXAGGERATED IMPRESSION.
“Mr. Meekton says his wife is
•ompetent to hold any cilice in the
government.”
“That opinion ” replied Miss Oav
•nne, “is the result of his vanity.
He thinks that because she can gov
■rn him she must he able to govern
he entire nation.”
NEVER MIND.
“Have a cigar, old man.”
“Xo, thanks.”
“Why not?”
“I promised my wife I wouldn't
smoke.”
“Then you don’t mind if you do.”
HOW IT LEAKED OUT.
“When did you learn that he was
one of the bank’s most trusted em- ;
*,i loves ?”
“The day after he. absconded with
the funds.”
NOT NOURISHING.
Doctor—For dinner you should
take forty minutes.
Timid Patient—Would it be dan
gerous to add a bit of meat and some
vegetables ?
BROUGHT ON TROUBLE.
“That fellow certainly is a dub.” |
“Kpr why?”
“1 told him I bossed mv wife, and
he went and told my wife.”

Method in His Caution.
Nobody knows just how the childish
mind works, but it is always safe to
assume that it will work at a pace and
in a manner quite equal to that of the
most ingenious adult. A child's rea
sons for getting his own way have
shrewdness and cleverness all their
own. Small Sammip. for instance, de
sired to finish the big hag of cherries
given him by the friend who was see
ing himself arid his mother off on a
journey. Mother, not anxious that lie
should (,at so many at. once, suggest
ed that it might be better to keep part
to consume on the train.
"I don’t think so, mother,” was
Sammie’s firm if respectful answer.
'Tftt afraid there might be a jerk or
something that would make me swal
ow the stones.”

Try It Just Once
You are always glad to follow the example of
wise and prudent men in all things but banking.
You have not got a prosperous neighbor who does
not carry a bank book. Why don’t you? Gall to
day and make a small deposit as a starter. Try it
just once and see if you don't step a little higher
when you go home to your family. It is much
easier to forge to the front with one of our neat
little bank books in your pocket. Don’t take our
word for this but try it, just once.
