State Treasurer Grimes of Kansas
has made study of Washington life,
especially as to official circles, and he
finds some undemocratic ways that the
democratic people of this country will
not take to kindly. Mr.. Grimes says
a United States Senator does not dare
to introduce his private secretary to
another Senator. That would be to pre-
sumo too much ON Senatorial dignity.
No matter how bright and cultured the
secretary may be, no matter If he Is the
Senator's superior mentally, he must
be made to understand that he is an in
ferior. Mr.. Grimes discovered this fact
when Senator Burton offered him a
place as his private secretary. Such a
state Of affairs might be expected In
European official circles where caste
holds sway, but 1t is out of place in a
republic. The people of the West. espe-
cially, will resent such state of affairs
In their capitol. Senators, In their view.
are the paid servants of the people, not
Hristocrats. Senators, II is said. defend
this drawing of social lines by saying
that Senator cannot deal with an
others private secretary, but would
want to deal with the Senator himself.
Very well. But that is no reason why
the secretary should be held to hold a
lower rank. He Is an American citizen
and presumably gentleman. Ii he
meets Senator he is certainly entitled
10 an introduction as one gentleman is
introduced to another. The American
people do not like snobbery in the off
wants are sufficiently obsequious to the
people when they want office. They
should not put on airs when they go TO
Washington.

If you should ask Chicago man or
woman TO show you the brayest per-
son in that great city it Is likely they
would pilot you to little restaurant
and point to a girl behind the counter.
She had a duty to perform. 1t was a
hard duty. 1t was taking her young
life away. 1t was making little wrin-
kles and marks of care, but Julia Prln-
diville tried not to think of these
things, and kept on doing the best she
could. There was a family TO support
on her SI,50 a week, and 1t doesn't
seem that in all the haunts of sorrow
there could be another such pilitiful
family. The mother was feeble of
body and mind, human cipher. The
fathers mind was also gone, and there
was dwarf child, 10 years old, who
stopped growing at the age of 3. and
who was deaf and dumb, and was kept
strapped in a chair. What do you think
of that burden? Doesn't any trouble
that ever came TO you seem insignifi-
cant in the sight of that roomful of
misery? In the morning Julia cooked
breakfast. cared for the old folks,
washed and dressed the dwarf and
strapped her in chair. Then she
hurried away TO her work and S4.50 a
week. She didn't complain. She had
no confidants. The other girls called
her stingy because she never spent Il
penny or went to a place of amuse-
ment. 81 can't do It," was her only
replyto invitations. She might have
married, but she drove young men
away. She gave up everything that
made joy for other girls and carried
her cross like a true martyr for six
years. 1t might have gone on till she
died from pain, work and worry, had
not an officer discovered what the girl
had labored to conceal. The dwarf
was taken to an asylum and the two
old people will be cared for at public
expense. And the girl, who deserves
monument and Victoria Cross and
all the mementoes of Victory that were
ever designed. wept when 'her fam
ly" was taken away, saying she want

mas. Then she went back to the res
taurant. When you get dissatisfied,
and blue, and discouraged, think of
Julia PrindiVillc, and remember that
she never lost hope or courage for

Rev. Peter MacQueen, pastor of
Charlestown, tells story in connec-
ton with his recent trip to Scotland.
He came across an old man seated
by the roadside, apparently in much
distress, and approaching the old man
began conversation. The latter, on
learning that the pastor was from
America, became quite interested, and
several times during the conversation
asked OF several people whom he had
known to leave the town for America
Among other names mentioned was
that Of Andrew Carnegie, the we'll
known millionaire steel magnate, and
Of whom he had evidently heard little
since his departure for this country.
Mr.. MacQueen said he had heard CT

doing quite we'll in America" said the
old man. The poor old fellow was a
