The START AND FINISH

She spent fortnight sewing
Every morning. noon and night,
She had to have the dresses
And they must be all right.
She trimmed her new hats over.
And made bathing suit.
Twas fetching as picture,
And Just about as cute.
She got a yachting costume,
And toilet for the beach;
A gown for gay receptions,
With which she meant to teach
The bellies of Eastern cities
The way that they should dress;
And in her mind she saw, right off,
Their jealous, deep distress!
She spent lot of money
On things like that to wear
And mother couldn't stop her
But there were tears to spare
When she found her purse was empty
Gone were her dreams Of joys
Fer she is rusticating out
In Hoopole, Illinois.

CAUTION IS DESIRABLE

Mr.. J, p. Morgan believes that there
"a no Foundation for the talk Of an i'm
pending bushes depression. He admits
that large amounts Of "undigested se-
curities" may be on the market, but
he holds that they represent sound val
ues. There is no better judge OF
6narcial situation than Mr.. Morgan
He has every right to an opinion on
securities, for he still has number Of
them to sell. And no doubt he is cor
rect in his belief that the permanent
prosperity is assured. But there are
certain facts upon which he has seen Mt
to dwell which seem to indicate that we
are facing a period, not of disaster, but
Of relaxed activity.
Hitherto we have had great panic
followed by a long stretch of hard
times, about every 20 years with mild
er depressions about half way between.
We had our last panic in 1898, and an
other win not be due until 1913, but one
of the gentler reactions, correspond
ing to that OF 1884, would be scheduled
for this year or the next II conditions
were the same as formerly. But the
conditions are not the same. The unre-
stricted competition that used to be
the agent in bringing on panics has dis
appeared, and instead We have combi-
nations that regulate the whole machin
cry of production.
The financial situation is certainly
one that calls for caution. The enor-
nous foreign credits that We piled up in
a series Of unheard Of annual export
balances have disappeared, and in their
place we have immense debts contract
ed abroad form lenders who are show
ing signs Of lneasiess ad calling in
their loans. The resources of our banks |
are strained to the utmost limit. Six |
years ago, at the bottom of the hard |
times, the reserves of all the National |
Banks of the United States were more |
than per cent above the legal limit, |
Today they are down to that limit and |
in many cases below it. In less than four |
years, between Feb 4, 1929, and Sept. |
Is, 1902, the deposits in these banks in
creased by $1,000, 100000 and their hold
ings of specie and legal tenders actually |
declined. Counting other banks and
trust companies the increase in depos-
its was over four billions, with no in
crease in ready cash.
We have been converting floating into /
fixed capital at a rate that has rakd our
available resources clean. The volume
of new bonds and stocks listed on the
New York StockExchange swelled from
$1,047, 100000 in 1S9S-94 to $3,Ss2, ,O0O, 900 Il
in 1sO1-02. In large part these represent
the cost of necessary facilities for car
rying on our growing business. Mean
while they strain our present means,
including out credit abroad, and we
may have TO forswear speculation,
abandon extravaganza and live careful
ly until we get them paid for.-Phil.

A lamentable unfamiliarity with Eng

she made ready to go to Long Branch

supply of clothes that should dazzle
the natives Her English man milliner
was, however, provokingly slow about
delivering things, and she was forced
to set off without several of the frocks
she had intended taking with her. For
the first week after she went away she
wrote to her devoted husband at home
every day. For the second week she
wrote every other day. In the third
week four days passed without line
from her. On the fifth day n telegram
was delivered at the young lawyers

Dentistry In japan.

You must know that a Japanese den.
fist never uses anything but his fingers
when extracting a tooth. They have
no surgical instruments. This Is how
they are able to work: A number OF
holes are bored in a plank Of wood and
pegs inserted In them. The plank ID
laid on the floor. and the novice pulls
them out with the finger and thumb OF
his right hand. BY this practice
strength and dexterity are acquired.
Then IN oak log with oak pegs is tried
and the young man Is kept on this fol-
a year.
The third year Is put in by operating
on a slab Of marble which contains
numberless pegs Of the hardest wood.
After this he Is qualified to 20 into
business. A thorough workman will
grab a patient with his left hand and
yank out five or six teeth with the right
hand without even stopping to rest. II
seems impossible. but practice and long
training will enable any one to accom-
plish 1t.

THE blue.blood, of Boston, have
their noses in the air over the fact
that Joe Walcott, a negro pugilist,
through an agent, lately bought
house adjacent to the home of
Col. Harry Converse, one of the
wealthiest and most prominent citi.
zens. and in close proximity to the
palatial residence of E. 8. Converse,
the multimillionaire rubber manu-.
facturer and philanthropist. Walcott
paid 50 600 for the house, stable and
land, and through an agent expended
$l 1000 in improvements. The neigh.
bors looked for swell family to move
in, and after the furniture had been
unloaded they were startled to see the
new tenants. The outfit consisted of
the champion negro pugilist, his
mulatto wife, four pickaninnies, his
white mother-in.law and yellow dog.
Walcott will use the stable as his
training quarters. The neighbors are
considering buying him off, a. he has
said he would sell out if they paid his
price.
