consideration separately later on, and
examined at length At present we
can only pause to say that we believe
that the country will concur in the con-
tention of the President that it is most
unecononlic and unyise to continue a
policy that compels the Government
to furnish all the gold required for ex-
changes and export.
There is nothing in all this that sug-
gests the slightest fear in the mind of
the President that the new revenue
system will fail to produce the income
necessary for the support of the Gov
ernment. On the contrary he expresses
the faith that it will. but adds that as
yet not sufficient time has elapsed to en-
able the new system to develop its full
possibilities
Expression is made that the scheme
Of the Monetary Commission is not
complete, and that whatever the out
come the Administration has faithfully
kept it's pledge to do all that within
it lies, to bring about an international
agreement concerning the relations Of
gold and silver.
There is strong recommendation of in
crease Of our naval strength both in
ships and men, and that at least one
more battleship shall be provided for
the Pacific Coast He pronounces for
the Nicaragua canal and for assertion
of the purpose of the Government to
secure from the sale of the Kansas Pa
cific Railway the full dues of the Gov
urges such legislation and activity as
are necessary to further the increase of
our foreign trade through reciprocity
and the fostering by legislation of our
foreign commerce.
The message will be well received by
the great mass of the American peo-
pie, since it is frank, not equivocating,
is easily understandable, and is vigor-
Gus in assertion of the policy Of the
Administration. From political op-
ponents it will have adverse criticism
on the ground that it defends a revenue
system which they insist is not a
sufficient revenue producer. The more
conservative of the people will find the
message fair minded, honest express
sion, and generally wise, though the
more ardent friends of the Cuban cause
will not fail to voice their regrets, that
| the Presidents views of international
law are not in accord with their hopes
and desires

Picked Out the Eggs Herself.

The other day a woman went into
grocer's and said: II want two dozen
hens eggs. They must all be eggs laid
by black hens"
The grocer said: Madame, am will
ing to accommodate you. but you have
got the best Of me this time. don't
know how to tell the eggs Of black
hen from those of a speckled or white
one"
She said: 81 can tell the difference
mighty quick"
''If that is so. madame, will you kind
ly pick out the eggs for yourself"
She did so, and when the two dozen
were counted into the basket, the gro
Ger looked at them and said, sugges-
lively: We'll madame. it seems as
though the black hens laid all the big
eggs
Yes" she said, that's the way you

It Stopped His Growing.

Grumper isn't his name, but 1t will
serve. He's a big man with big voice,
big appetite. big heart, big bank ae-
count and rather a big opinion of him
self. He belongs to that extensive class
that come in from the country. begin in
a small way and push along till they
are among the leaders in their respec-
tive callings. 1t is not long since he
married a dainty little woman whose
chief aim is to please him. For weeks,
day by day. he registered the familiar
old complaint that no cooking tasted as
good as his mothers used to. Mrs
Grumper was so anxious to please him
and remove this cause of complaint that
she roasted, fried, stewed and broiled
herself in the kitchen, but Grumper
never ceased to yearn for mothers
cooking"
One day plain but CHEEKY old lady
appeared at Grumpers front door. She
was the mother. and had come long
way just to see her boy once more and
give him a surprise. He would not be
home till evening, and his little wife
enticed the old lady into the cooking
department, determined that he should
at least be made happy. The mother
used plenty of grease, made plenty OF
smudge and felt more at home than she
would have been in the parlor. She was
induced to remain in her room till The
meal was well under way to see If
Grumper did not recognize the food as
prepared by her hands He shifted the
air of the dining-room and there was an
unpleasant look on his face. He scanned
the table and the look deepened. He
tried few dishes, laid aside his knife
and fork. turned to his wife and de-
clared that he could stand it no longer.
He had hoped that she would learn, but
this was. by all odds, the worst yet. He
would write for his mother and she
could remain till the wife learned her
ways.
When he knew all he wilted, admit
ted that tobacco might have spoiled his
taste. and now eats any old thing with

The Cure for Amcricanitis.

Americanitis is on the increase, the
wise ones say. Americanftis comes
from an intense desire to git thar and
an awful fear that you cannot. The
ounce of prevention is to cut down
your calling list, play tag with the chill
dren, and let the Old World slide. Re-
member that your real wants are not
many-a few hours work a day will
supply Your needs-then you are safe
from Americanitis and death at the
