gibbon monkey: it may be strength of
character; she will break her heart for
a politician or fnancier who is unswerv-
ingly wrapped up in dreams of personal
advancement and who possesses no more
heart tksu an oyster. But strength n
some form she Graves increasingly. 1t is
a hereditary instinct that has been be-
queathed to her through Ewes first dis
appointment when Adam was tried in
the balance and found wanting.
Women abhor towards and still more
sneaks, though l regret to say they often
endure cads in way that bellies their in
telligence and good taste. They have
quite a pathetic desire to look up to men,
to feel men their superiors in strength of
body and of mind in calmness of jcdg-
meat and clearness of intellect. And it is
indeed pity that men often go out Of
their way to destroy their most cherished
illusions.
Woman, secretly conscious of her own
physical weakness and lack of intellec-
tual strength, demands strength from
man to make up for her deficiencies.
Even the strongest women, strong in
body and mind, well balanced as Athene
herself, though they may shield and pro-
tect the weakness of the men they love
and stoop to help them, will never do so
without secret feeling of contempt
which is destruction OF all ideals.

When the coach is on night trips, how
ever, arrangement is made for brid cling
the space between the seats to form
touches. Thus an ordinary passenger
car having seats with movable backs
can be readily converted into a sleeper
with touches filling the space which is
occupied by any two contiguous seats
and their backs.
In the new invention the solid fitting
bar to which the back of the seat is
rigidly attached is replaced by slotted
bar. A separate bar is secured to the
back. and the connection between this
and the slotted bar is a bolt, having
a screw head which forms a clamp
for holding the two in either position.
When the clamp is released the back
of the seat drops down TO the level of
the bottom, the slotted bar resting in
the hook at the side of the seat to sup

Roosevelt's Anti Trust Speeches.

ST Louis Republic.
RooseveIt's Anti Trust Speeches.
The Republican President is declar-
ing on the stump that the trusts are
productive of evil and must be controll-
ed in the public interest.
The Republican party foe six years
has had full power to curb the trusts.
but has done nothing. While Presi-
dent Roosevelt advocates governmental
control of the giant combinations, one
of them. the Coal Trust, il narassing
industry and pillaging all classes in
the community by keeping the mines
closed and doubling the price of coal.
The President could proceed against
the Coal Trust by ordering his Attorney
General to prosecute its members under
the Sherman law. And Mr. Ronsevelt's
Attorney General chooses this time to
make trip to Europe.
The Republican conventions of Iowa
and Idaho, giving voice TO the senti-
ment of a large and growing element of
the rank and file of the Presidents
party. have demanded. to tile distress
and alarm of the leaders, that she tar
if shall be so revised as TO deprive
monopolies of its shelter-s) revised.
this means, that trusts whicli sell their
wares cheaper abroad than they do at
home shall be subjected to foreign com
petition.
But Mr.. Roosevelt. who Knows, of
course, that the tariff is the chief bull
wark of the trusts, has not q word to
say about the tariff Nevertheless the
President is doing a good work. He
recognizes the existence of the trust
evil and admits the justice Of th,.-Dem-
ocratic complaint against the nnbridled
freedom enjoyed by these combinations
to plumber the people.
That is a great Republican advance
upon Mr.. Hannas position during the
Presidential campaign of 1900: There
are not trusts" And upon Mr. Hannas
announcement made only few weeks
ago that "the only monopolies we have
in this country are those protected by
patents"
1t would be gratifying to hear from
Mr.. Roosevelt on the tariff and on the
Coal Trust, but his speeches neyerthe-
less are excellent in spirit SO far as
they go.
Yet no relief from trust monopoly
and trust robbery can be locked for
from the Presidents party, which.
while he is making his popular
speeches, is campaigning TO: secure
again a do-nothing majority In the
House of Representatives. The reason
why no relief can be expected from the
Presidents party is this; The Repub-
lican party is owned by the trusts
