AINsLEE's FOR OCTOBER.

A very successful series, Great Types of Modern Business" has been
 running in Ainslee's for several
 months. In the October issue, which
 has a beautiful cover design, this ser ies is concluded with an original and vigorous article on Politics as a Busi-
 ness" by J. Lincoln Steffens. Included in the prospectus is a machines source of income from vice, privileges and ap- pointments. c. G. Bush, the famous cartoonist of the New York World. has trate points of the text.
 In 'The American Exporter" H. ts. Armstrong tells how American pro- ducts are to b. found in the remotest corners of the Seven Seas, and how the American producer is beyond competi- ton in supplying any commodity from a camera to railroad bridge Aims lees has two articles of peculiar inter- est to women in this issue-"Ths New Baby" by Hutchins Hapgood, and Housekeeping at Mile a Minute" by Helen Churchill Candee. Notorious Criminals in Western Prisons" by Charles Ulrich is a graphic article. en- livened with several dramatic episodes of criminal life in the west. Topics Of the Theater. in addition to a hand some assortment of photographic, con- tains an interesting note on Charles Frohman and another on Clyde Fitch.
 In stories the October Ainslee's Is richly and variously supplied. "The Last Run of the Valley Hunt" by Mar win Dana. is a splendid field story with pretty love interest. "The Wild Cats of Wioska Valley" by Arthur Stringer, is founded on laughable incident of life in the northwest. "Mr. Pooly's Governess," by Addison Clark. is n fresh and rather tender story laid in a town where there was only one woman, and she a newcomer and homely. Bad for the Finder by Miles Sandys. is a train robbery story Of unique character. and The Horse That Travelled with the Troupe" .,y C. H. Payne. is fantastic fiction of stage life that is really amusing. The illustrations to stories and articles are n'en'iful and artistic. Street & Smith, Publishers New York.

Physicians generally will be deeply interested in the report from New York of the cure of case of lockjaw by the injection of a serum into the brain. The success which has attended the use of antitoxin for the cure of diphtheria has made therapeutics in this line very attractive to the medical profession.

| An interesting, it not conclusive, re- view of treasury conditions was pre- | sented by Wall street THE writer. says the 'Finan- TREASURY cier, who figures that | SURPLUS. continuance of present operations means the accumulation of a surplus aegre gating at least $150 O00. GOO for the fiscal year. While this estimate is prophetic rather than practical. 1t is worthy of consid- eration, for the reason that 1t deals with factors the importance of which are not as yet generally spprsciateai. To begin with. the country has passed from a war to a peace footing, and as direct consequence treasury expenii- lures are failing off rapidly. Revenue collections are below last years aver ages. up 60 this time, but the decrease docs not bear direct ratio to lessened expet ditures. The consequence Is that treasury balances are larger. Thus it is pointed out that up to Septmber z1st, surplus revenue for the fiscal year amounted to SIS. .909. .126. as compared with a deficit of s2.ss1, ,1S4 for the same
  ment receipts had fallen off $2,62O 452. When congress repealed portions of the war revenue bill. it was estimated that the annual decrease would amount to $40. 100000. so that on this basis the re- duction between July and October. theoretically. should be in the neigh bohood of s1O.0OO, 900. Needless to say, the decrease has not been anything like this sam.
 The disturbing factor. so to speak. lies in the iessened expenditures on Philippine account. The pacification of the islands has decreased expenses largely. the government having saved nearly or quite 2o.OO0. GOO on this item alone since the opening of July. Merely as a theoretical problem, 1t is evident that if this continues. the government will have saved $so,OO0. .OOO before next July. and counting against this s1O.- ooo.oO0 less receipts. a surplus of $7o.- 0G0.C0o would remain. Adding to this the known surplus of $75, ,750,000 last year, the total is over $14s.- 100000 for the current year.
 Nobody believes that the surplus will reach such figures. but at the same time the outlook favors continued accumulation of treasury funds at the expense of the banks When congress meets next December it may take steps to relieve the situation by fur ther reductions in war taxes, but 1t seems harder to influence congress to take off taxes than to put them on. The purchase of bonds affords tenn porary relief. but even here the can cellation of these securities affects the | volume of bank note circulation. It would seem that we are now creating l a new political problem. based again | on monetary affairs. If the treasury | Is to pile up surplus, the circulating | medium will suffer. and if heavy dis bursements for bond purchases con- tinue. national bank circulation will | decline or remain stationary

THE WEST TRANSFORMED.

We are cultured to the limit in this famous west
ern land;
Christianity upon us has a oinch,
And refinement in our actions always plays a win
ming hand;
We are getting there, dead certain. inch by
inch.
As an ornament the pistol is completely out of
date,
Very rarely do "a have c eaass.s<=erst;
Ns IRE up viii ne proSe~son, anL 49, skan to
hold our gait;
1t no longer is the wild and woolly west.
We are short Of desperadoes. scarcely ever see a
tough
With a yearnIng craze for shooting up the town,
And the tenderfoot from Jersey when he tries to
run a bluff
Undergoes a rather hasty calling down.
We are drinking better liquor than we did in days
OF yore,
And we go about more fashionably dressed;
Tie advancing wave Of progress quenched our
burning thirst for gore;
1t no longer is the wild and woolly west.
Not a Christian man among US wears his brooches
In his boots,
And the old wool shirt Is but a memory now.
And we look with disapproval on the tenderfoot ga
loots
Who are sporting big sombreros on the brow.
We are seen at church on Sunday ere the trout
begin to bite
With a holy fame alight in every breast.
And we're always in our couehes at the stroke Of
IL at night;
It no longer Is the wild and woolly west.
And our ladies'. heaven bless 'em. are 50 modest,
nice and sweet
You would think them truant angels from the
skies:
Never see them dash a-straddle on their bronchos
through the street.
Making hosiery displays for staring eyes.
Not a slangy word or sentence ever ripples from
their lips,
For a high old time they never 60 in quest;
Not a gun Is ever peeping from the pocket on
their his;
1t no longer Is the wild and woolly west.
Oh, you bet your filthy iucre. we're refined to beat
the band;
We have culture to distribute to the birds.
And the brand Of fresh morality We always keep
on hand
Couldn't be described in common rhyny words.
We in every moral attribute are strictly recherche.
And that same's no pipy, visionary jest.
And we love the rugged country into which we've
come to stay;
1t no longer Is the wild and woolly west.
