Modern Fable.

general who was conducting a
war in distanct island wrote to
the agricultural department of his
government to ship him a ton Of
acorns. When asked what he in
tended to do with them he replied:
There is no shade in our trench
es, and the troops suffer from heat.
A growth of large oaks will add
much to the comfort of the men in
the firing line"
He would have more, but his at
tention was arrested by a burst OF
song from a neighboring jungle.
"Ah, he sighed, that is a round
robin!''
And he walked sadly away.-San
Francisco Examiner.

England.
Meanwhile trusts continue to
multiply in all the other necessa-
ries of life. Within the week there
we're organized:
A Cotton Goods Trust.
An Ice Trust.
A hide and Leather Trust.
An Asphalt Trust.
These simply supplement the
hundreds of other trusts and mo-
nepolies formed during the present
year, seeking to control the produc-
ton and fix the prices of nearly
every article of general use.
The latest combin ations cover;
The food we eat.
The clothing We wear.
The shoes for our feet.
The ice required for health and
comfort.
The modern pavements for our
streets.
Arethere no laws against these
"conspiracies in restraintof trade"
these combinations of Greed
against Need?
"Oh, yesl There is a stringent
Federal antitrust law, and most
of the States, including New York
and Illinois, have statutes of a SIM
liar character.
Why are not theselaws enforced?
1t is as easy as thimblerigger S
game. The Acknowledgement of
the United States, the official charg-
ed (under the President) with the
duty of seeing that 'the laws
are faithfully executed" says that
the regulation of industrial combi-
nations sis entirely a matter of
state control, and that "unless the
functions of interstate commerce
are iuterfered with l would be SUI
peroficious to attempt a crusade
against against affairs with which
/ have no business.
To the lay mind of the ordinary
plundered citizen it would seen that
Meat Trust organized in Chicago,
and not only supplying the markets
of all our Eastern cities, but actu-
ally selling meat cheaper in London
than it does in New York, was en-
gagged both in interstate and inter-
national commerce. So of the Ice
Trust, reaching from Maine to New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington. So of the Hide and
Leather Trust and a hundred
others.
And yet, with trust lawyer
as Attorney-General and a Presi-
dent to whose campaign fund pro-
tected monopolies contributed a
million dollars, the chance of the
people to find relief in the Federal
law is about equal to the chance of
safety to a roost of chickens guard
ed by Br'er Fox and Br'er Coon.
The common-sense remedy would
seem to be to elect President and
Governors who believe that mono
poles should be and can be strang-
led, and who will see to it-"By the
Eternal!"-that the laws are faith
fully executed. New York World.

HAPPY MARY ANDERSON.

The World has beautiful interview
with Mary Anderson, which shows the
former queen of our stage to be that
very rale thing-an actress retired at
the height of her fame and powers who
is happy in domestic obscurity Mrs.
De Navarro lives in an old house at
Broadway, England, within driving
distance of Anne Hathaway's cottage,
with her husband, her boy, her roses
ana her villagers and she finds some
thing III the life more satisfying than
the applause of the multitude which
she might command again at a mo-
ment's notice, for she is only forty, at
the fulness of her beauty ano bloom.
Knowing what the great world holds
for her of applause and adulation,
listen to this, we women who imagine
that you would stagnate in the coun-

II have become unused to the rush
of city life. 1t does not appeal to me
as much as life in the country, which,
think, is more natural and sincere. a
life devoted wholly to society could
never satisfy me. All the little details
that lend sweetness and fulness to life
are taken advantage of in the country.

the possibilities of little joys are often
overlooked Pleasure, like other
things, are sought after with a rush,
and the humble offerings of smaller
blessings are apt TO be trodden upon. ="
The picture is true enough, but out
side its context who would take the
author of it to be a courted and
feted actress? II shows clearly enough
that Mrs. De Navarro is something
greater than great artist-a good wo-
man Her head and heart are sound
enough TO prize her present oppor-
tunities more highly than the rewards
of her public career. That being SO.

FAME.

The birds sing sweetest in the deepest
glade,
untrodden paths invite the fairest
flowers,
The toughest stone. the purest gem has
made;
The faintest star could swing this
world of ours.
Ambition has no home in gilded halls,
Fame comes at last to those who've
sorest wept.
A sage may dwell within hovel's
walls,
The King of Kings first in a manger
slept.
Heed not a lowly birth and humble
home
The sails ne'er feel the breeze until un-
furled.
The flame of genius futters on I'M
known,
Then meteor-like illumines all the
world"

A FAvoRITE WEDDING GOWN.

Satin of an ivory white holds its own
year after year as a favorite material
for a wedding gown. 1t may be COW
cred with lace, trimmed with lace
llounces, or ii may las has been the
case with two or three wedding gowns
turned out recently be absolutely
plain, with only a bit of lace around
the neck In each and every case it
is an exquisite material for the pur-
pose. The long lines of the train that
is now part of every wedding gown
show the beauty Of the fabric to the
best advantage, while the lace or tulle
of the veil that falls over the long
folds of the skirt only seems to en-
nance the beauty of the satin. In this
country, as in France, it is the fashion
for wedding gowns to be made high
necked and long sIeeved. There are
now a great many gowns made with
yoke and sleeves of lace in guimpe eff
feet These can be taken out and the
gown left as low-necked evening
gown if so desired, but one of the OBJ
jections to this is that it Is difficult to
make the guimpe and sleeves fit cor
rectly. 1t is nevertheless a fashion
that has many followers -Harpers
