A recent magazine writer say
divorce is caused because we don't
tell the truth to each other before
marriage. As a matter of fact
do we stick strictly to the
truth after marriage?
Though the labor unions have
been urged on all sides to repudiate
the leaders who involved them ir
the dynamite conspiracy, and tc
choose new men to represent
them, it appears that they are not
strong enough to do so. A num
ber of the very men who have beer
convicted and sent to the peniten
tiary for being in the plot have
since been re-elected to office b\
the unions. Enimies of the union
idea are now pointing to this fact
to prove that the unions believe in
and uphold methods of violence, no
matter what their professions may
be.
FORESHADOWS BANKING REFORM.
Carter Glass of Virginia, chair
man of the House subcommittee .
which is framing a banking reform
bill, has written an article for the
New York Journal of Commerce
on the essentials of a sound bank
ing system. These he holds to be.
a sound elastic note issue, based
on commercial credits, a redis
count agency for commercial pa
per, and more efficient bank regu
lation.
Mr. Glass has nothing to say
about centralized reserves. It is
r‘ported from Washington that the
subcommittee is debating whether
to pool the bank reserves in a
single reservoir, or to eslablish a
limited number of districts each tc
hold its own reserves. As chair
man of the body which will frame i
the must important bill 1 or at least
it is certainly the most conspicous
to be presented to Congress on this
vital issue. Mr. Glass looms as per
haps the most important figure in
the banking reform movement: anc
what he has to say on the question
is therefore of supreme importance.
SIX YEAR TERM FOR PRESIDENT.
The resolution introduced by
Senator Works of California, has
received the requisite two-thirds \
majority in the Senate, the vote |
being 4? in favor and 23 against
the proposition. The matter goes
to the House where it is very likely
it will be passed by more than a
two-thirds majority.
Of the ninety-one million people
of this country, probably ninety
million favor this resolution, so that
when a president comes into the
White House he will know that hr
can only stay there for six years,
and if he wishes to make a record
in statesmanship, he will have to
do it then.
Heretofore every president, with
the exception of James K. Polk
and R. B. Hayes, have invariably
worked for a second term, and of
them William H. Taft has been the
most notorious in this respect.
From the time he set his foot into
the White House until his defeat
last November, he has worked
night and day for that “second
term." and his evident activity in
that respect was one of the things
that made his defeat so over
whelming. This resolution will
cure a great and growing evil in i
this respect. I
FLOATED TO THE NEW Slit
Village of Proviecetown Was Put on
Rafts and Moved Across
the Bay.
Commercial street In Provincetown
had an origin in keeping with its pres
ent nautical air and appeal to the
imagination. The town originally
stood on the spit of sand far out
across the harbor, where the light
house now is. Many years ago the
government bought Provincetown,
houses and all, in order to protect the
harbor from the threatening sea. The
Provincetonians went to the govern
ment and asked what they were go
ing to do with the houses.
"Pull ’em down, of course,” said
the government.
"Can’t we have ’em?'' Inquired the
late owners.
“Sure,” replied the government, "if
you’ll take ’em away.”
"Sure!” echoed the Provincetonl
ans.
Old wreckers that they were, they
applied their technic to the problems
of housemoving. They bulkheaded
their dwellings tip, necklaced empty
casks about them in the way of life
preservers, and one sunny morning
the village of Provincetown, true to
its maritime traditions, set sail,
schoolhouse and all, and came float
ing gayly across the harbor to where
it now stands. Near the railway
track today they point out a certain
store as the original seafaring school
house.—Robert Haven Schauffler In
the Metropolitan Magazine.
HOW NATURE LEADS US ON
After the Courtship Dreams With
Their Bright Hues Come the
Babies’ Future Dreams.
Love Is an illusion. Some seem to
take it as a bitter thing that after the
honeymoon ifte married pair settle
down to the humdrum of everyday- j
ness. But, in the first place, they.
never quite become entirely disillu
sioned. The stain of the rainbow lin
gers in the average marriage, and in 1
the second place, even if this illusion
passes, another comes, for there are I
the children, and lover and lass who
once dreamed of each other now are I
father and mother and must dream of P
the babies’ future. i.
Illusions are Nature's device for get- i
ting things done. That is why shel>
fills young men so full of illusions as <
'o their own power. Heaven help us >
■f young people knew precisely whatli
they could do! They would do noth-t
'ng at all. i
And if girls knew just what mar
riage was going to be, arid ail their j
future down to the grave, they would,,
never marry. Illusions are Nature's
bait. ]
Life itself is progressive illusion:
"Mala" the Hindus call it.
And we are not poor dupes. Nature
Is not cheating us, and sneering at us
the while. She is leading us on in
love, as we lead our little children.—
Ur. Frank Crane in Woman’s World.
The Smoking Mountain.
In 1897 1 climbed two volcanoes in
Mexico- -Popocatepetl or "the Smoking
Mountain,” about 17,800 feet, and Oriz
aba, the former the most famous be
cause within view from Mexico City
and thus a source of especial pride
and admiration to the inhabitants, who
have been loath to believe tHat any
other of their mountains could be high
er. Popo has a really splendid crater,
about half a mile across and one thou
sand feet deep. The walls are gen
erally vertical, but In one or two
places It is possible to descend. When I
workers are engaged in collecting sul
phur, machinery is used to hoist them ;
up and down. From Popo's summit,
there is a glorious prospect, not alone
of the immense crater, but of the beau
tiful “White Lady,” Jxtaccihuatl, re
dining a thousand feet below; of Oriz
aba on the far horizon, and of the
charming valley of Mexico.—Annie S.
Peck in “The Christian Herald.”
Opacjue Windows.
The building contractor let loose
some of his most emphatic phrases I
when he found that the man who had
been hired to daub whiting all over the
windows had not half done the job.
"That man doesn’t seem to under
stand what the windows in a half-fin
ished building are whitened for." he
said. "We don't plaster them over
with chalk to prevent the public from
seeing the unfinished condition of the
interior, but to keep the workmen
from battering out the glass. Trans
parent glass looks just about as trans
parent as air to the man who is mov
ing a wooden or iron beam, in a hur
ry. and he is likely to rani the end of
it through an expensive window, but
when the glass is coated with white
It becomes visible, and the workmen
hand their material in through the
door.”
One Benefit.
To top off an expensive education a
young married woman of no particular
ability in any one line took a course at
a dramatic school. She never aitempt
ed to secure an engagement, so one
day a dose and candid friend of her
nusband asked what good all that
training had done, anyhow.
“So far as 1 can see," lie said, “t hat
$300 you spent on Ethel's dramatic
education has been practically thrown
away.”
“Oh, no. It hasn't,” returned the hus
band mildly. “Her stage experience
has taught her to dress in a hurry.
Nowadays when I ask her to go anv
place with me she can change lur
dollies in ten minutes. It used to
take over an hour.”

VvARlw'E TALE FROM PaRIS
Woman, Rather Than Pay Sis*er’f
Funeral Bill, Watchs3 Body
Seven Weeks.
Paris.—A queer story of an old
woman’s avarice Hornes from Lava',
near Relates. In the Rue Rasse des
Bouchers resided two sisters, Clem
entine and Fanny Manguy, aged sev
enty-two and seventy-four years. The
old women held aloft from their neigh
bors. They rarely left their rooms
and their only visitor was a nun.
Tlie sister had not been seen for
seven weeks. The neighbors' became
anxious and wondered what had oc
curred. The po'ice were informed.
The other morning a policeman was
annoved by a disagreeable odor, lie
ascended the stairs and knocked at ;
the door of the sisters’ room. The door j
was rot opened, but an angry voice
within hade him go about his business.
The policeman procured a ladder,
and affected an entrance into the1
rooms by opening a window. A ter
rible spectacle met his view. On a
mattress lay one of the sisters. She j
was ill. Asked where her sister was
she reriied that slip was lying dead
at ihe foei of the bed. The eldest sis-j
ter had, m fact, been dead for seven I
weeks, and the other had remained by
the body, which was now in a state
of putrefaction.
When asked why she had not noti
fied of her sister’s death, she declared
that she could not pay for the funeral j
expenses. On the room being searched !
1509 in bank notes and gold was
found. The old woman preferred to
remain by the body rather than pay
for the burial. The sister was re
moved to a hospital, and the dead
body was taken to tlie morgue.
Appropriate.
Gazing at a group oi nine children
gathered about a small sloop, an old
lady called one of the lilue girls.
“Are all of these children your sis
ters and brothers?" she asked.
"Yes, mum," replied the youngster.
“What is the largest one named?’ j
“Maxie, mum.”
“And what do you call the smaller
one?” I
l "Minnie, mum." j
