The Tyranny OF the Desk.

We will suppose that your occupation Is
sedentary-that you are chained. so to
speak to the desk in some counting house,
or perhaps TO the loom in some vast mill
where you are compelled TO labor from
morning till night Sunday is your only
day of relaxation. You return home every
evening wearied mentally and bodily. Your
health and strength begin 70 fail. What
will most effectualIy recuperate your vital
energy The weight of evidence points to
no other conclusion than that Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters Is your safest. most re-
liable sheet anchor. Use II persistentIy
and your system Will soon regain It's pris-
tine vigor. Every function will receive a
healthful impulse. There is no remedy TO
equal the Bitters for nervousness and want
OF sleep, dyspepsia, constipation and bill
iousness. IL averts and remedies all forms
of maIarial disease. and is a preventive OF
rheumatism and neuralgia.

Weekly Bank Statement.

The banks hold s4o. ISL US in excess OF the
requirement.
The Finaneier says: The statement OF
the clearing house banks of New York city
for the week ending February may be a
faithful reflection of the average business
of the first three days OF the week, but as
a showing of the actual condition of the
banks at the close of business Saturday II
Is not absolutely correct. 1t Is a matter or
record, however. that the New York bank
statements following the adjustment of
the last government loans did not indicate
for weeks the full effect of operations
which these loans brought about, and a re-
currence OF this delay is to be expected in
the present case. There are signs in the
current statement OF coming changes in
the totals. Not the least of these. and one
that Is gratifying in every sense. is the ex-
pansion la the loan column. which, follow
ing a steady liquidation that has decreased
the loans OF the New York banks almost
100000 since the FIRST preparations for
the bond issue. shows that funds are again
10 be released, and that a money strin-
gency is not feared. The cash holdings,
and especially the specie reserve. viii show
heavy decreases as the payments for the
new bonds are made. A great deal of gold
has already gone into the treasury banks,
and IL is doubtful III this is included in the
statement. The banks gained several mill
ions from the interior within the past six
days. and the increase in deposits was TO
have been anticipated.

Should Sundays He Countedf

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
By act of Congress, department clerks are
given thirty days annual leave of absence
and thirty days sick leave. this latter to
be covered by physicians certificate, sworn
the thirty days annual leave that wish to
have construed by other than the depart
mental authorities. who argue that thirty
days leave are inclusive of Sundays Now
II Sundays are included IN the annual leave
then We each and all have fifty-two days
each year. and are not entitled to more; ;
ard, further than this, are in arrears of
twenty-five days to the government, which
should be deducted from our pay. More
over If Sundays are counted as part of the
annual leave. then We should be required
10 report for duty or each Sunday of the
hfty-two In the year. If the offices are no.
open on those days for work. they are not
open any more on the Sundays which are
included in the thirty days annual leave,
Tour or five Sundays, as the case may be-
II IS customary to deduct the pay of q
clerk who construes the law as giving
thirty working days. which ii seems to me
any one with a grain of common sense
would understand the act to mean IT will
give many department clerks great salts
faction to hear your opinion upon this
point. and that Of any lawyers who will
kindly volunteer one. Has the department
the right to withhold the pay Of a clerk
who has been absent thirty days exclusive
OF Sundays?
thirty days annual leave. then we have
thirty days minus the four or five that
Sundays represent, and / do not see how
the act Of Congress can be so construed
JUS CIVILE.
