trust for the control of the market in
prunes. The humble prune, however
much it may be reviled, is yet a nu-
tritious and palatable article of food.
Its great virtue is high kind of adapt
ability. 1t is equal to all occasions,
either breakfast, luncheon or dinner.
1t can be eaten with steak or with
pickles; it can consort on equal terms
with the cake dish or the milk pitcher.
Thousands of men who have treated it
with jocular contempt have been glad
to get it at times when the dull monot-
ony of roast beef and potatoes was be.
coming oppressive. If grasping mon
opoly of the unpretentiOus but useful
prune is to be formed the public will
have occasion for regret Many even
among those who have ridiculed the
fruit the most, would rather be sur
feited with prunes-be filed with them,
so to speak--than be forced to go with
out them entirely.

1t is not on record that anybody ever
wanted divorce more than did Will
lam Bateman Leeds. of Chicago and
New York. AT all events nobody ever
paid as much for one. One million dol
lars was the cost of Mr.. Leeds free
dom.
There is some justification for the
terms that Mrs. Leeds No. 1 insisted
upon. She had been deserted for five
years, and that is not fiattering to a
wife. And If she demanded as recon-
pense for this humiliation a yearly sal
airy Of 5000, ,000-four times as large as
that of the President of the United
States-who shall say that even this
monument of hard cash adjusted the
balance?
They believed sixteen years ago that
they loved each other. He was then Il
clerk in an Indiana town, his sweet
heart serious girl with every domes-
tic accomplishment. The first clash
came when Leeds dared too much. as
his wife thought in money-getting,
while she clung to her narrower ideals.
But fortune smiled on the mans ven

background. Around the bases he went,
driving two other men ahead Of him,
and the game was won. He was looked
upon as good amateur pitcher in those
days, and often after the game my
swollen hands attested the speed he
had. While 1t can hardly be said that
the picture resembles Mr.. Bryan as he
looks to-day, 1t is he, however, as he
appeared In a baseball uniform along

That the tendency toward suicide is
increasing must be apparent to all
newspaper readers. The causes assign
ed are numerous, and in the majority of
cases they are trivial, considered from
the standpoint of any person who has
Il sane comprehension Of the pef'pleXi-
ties involved in the problem of life
Physical and mental disease play an
important part in driving people of SEN
sitive temperament to self-destruction
Failure in business, domestic trouble,
lack of employment, disappointment,
the heat, etc, etc, are assigned as
causes for recent suicides. The impulse
that impels a man to desert his wife
and children IN the midst Of the battle
of life cannot be worthy one. The
husband who seeks relief in suicide
from real or fancied grievances and
leaves his wife and children to con-
tinue the contest, handicapped by the
sorrow and disgrace his act places upon
their shoulders, is q coward. The man
or woman who shrinks from the per-

fortune, who cannot bear his OF her al
lotted share of adversely, is coward
Cowardice and nothing else is behind
nne-tenths of all the suicides commit
ted-generally the most selfish, craven,
contemplate cowardice. Many suicides
are traceable, doubtless, to causes over
which the victims had no control, but
these are easily distinguishable from
the others, and there is little danger
that the purely unfortunate victims of
circumstances may be confounded with
the persons who are prompted by pure
seltishness and pure cowardice to end
their existence

The annual reunion of the Grand
Army of the Republic is always an inn
pressive occasion, and the warmth of
the welcome which greets the line of
bent figures and whitening heads is
proof of the place these men hold in the
heart of the nation. 1t is all the more
pity then, that their wishes In regard
TO Memorial day are not more general
ly needed At the recent reunion in
Chicago, the veterans felt obliged to
call attention again to the neglect and
abuse of the day on the part of the pub.
Nc, and even to suggest the changing
OF the date from May 30 to the last
Sunday in May, 1t was the Grand
Army which created Memorial day.
