It is a striking commen-
tary 011 the financial methods
of Mr. Roosevelt's adminis-
tration that Representative
Tawney, a republican, chair-
man of the house Committee
011 Appropriations, shou'd
now forecast that within four
months after Mr. Roosevelt's
retirement from office the im-
mense surplus rccumulated in
ihe Treasury will be wiped
youd the elbow so that there
is no sleeve to get soiled in
the greasy water. The girls
that wash the dishers are the
girls that make the real
homes in our country; and
now that sleeves art off to
help poor mother wash the
dishes and clean the vessels
and the stove, every man .w>
meet appears to be iu love
with these pretty daughters."

Many people have an idea
that orchards do not need en-.

other fruits and not reduce

"ALL DEALERS"
The following statemen wast
recently printed in an indus-
trial magazine: "Two thirds
of the convicts in America's
prisons are men without a
trade or profession. The sup-
erintendent of a penal institu-
tion, after being asked how
many of the prisoners had
knowledge of a trade, an-
swered: "Absolutely none. If
t'.iey, had they never would
have come here "
Weak women should read my

was written expressly for wo-

with its magnificent fleet of
ironclads and its larger army

had paid its national debt and
stood to-day as the one great
nation 011 the face of the earth
not owing a dollar," is to talk
like a visionary, a demagogue
or a Socialiit.

The numerous state confer-
e.ices of educators which have
t iken place this year and
which are increasing in num-
ber are a good sign of the in-
t :rest taken in acquiring the
1 itest and most successful me-
thods of teaching. The great
tendency of modern schools is
towards too many subjects
and too 111 itch haste; the old
fashioned way was to learn a
few things and to iearn them
thoroughly. Both of these
systems 110 doubt have their
faults, and with the increased
researches after those methods
which give the best results,
there can be no question
about our schools being bere-
fited by the discussions held
iu the various stale education-
al conventions.
