prohibits the retirement Of more than
100000 per month of national bank
notes. With that repeal the banks
would take out more notes as needed
and retire them when not needed and
interest races are lowest
Then the asset currency question
would come in another bill, purely on
its merits, and congress could pass
upon it without being hampered by
other complex questions with which il
is now entangled.
On the face OF the situation and the
evident need of the country for more
expansive and abundant currency in
circulation We are inclined TO think
these pOp-guu acts would be far better
for business than no currency legisla-
ton OF any sort.

Crumpacker Bobs Up Again.

Taking advantage Of lull IN the
race riots and lynchings in his

crawls out of his cellar and offers a
few more remarks on his plan for re-

more fuel to the fires of passion out

A Spirit lost in Night,
Sweet sang a song of Morning
Who never knew it's light.
And men looked from the shadow
And saw the morning. beams,
Or in LIES midnight reaped the stars,
Bright-scattered through their dreams.
And earth knew more of Maytime,
And less of wintry blight
While the music of that Spirits voice
Was rippled into light.

Yet lost in night, and singing
OF light TO all mankind
On the Glad Way.

stumped by Official Latin.

A Washington man who signs himself 'Tgnoramus." after appealing vainly for assistance to the Post and the Times of his city, has returned to the Evening Post of this town to learn the meaning of the legend on the seal of the Federal depart ment of justice. "Qui pro domina jus titia sequitur" Our contemporary offers the suggestion that "Justitiam' be sub etituted for "Justitia"--a confession and avoidance offering an explanation only in appearance. As "Ignoramus" quotes the motto, 1t is correct. According to the story, one of <he Cecls having been ap- pointed attorney general to Queen Eliza beth. was presented to the Sovereign by the Earl of Esssx, who. after announcing the name of the new law officer. added: "Qui pro domina reginia sequitur' prosecutes for his mistress, the Queen. Not so." said Elizabeth. T will not have 1t so. "Qui pro domina justitia se- quitur' "-who prosecutes for his mistress. Justice. The Queens emendation natur- ally was accepted. So far the story, though there seems to have been no Ce- cil. who served as attorney general to the Virgin Queen. When Jeremiah s. Black became Attorney General in Bu- chanans Cabinet in 1857, he chose the amended phrase as the seal of his depart ment "Ignoramus" is not the first per son who has been puzzled by 1t.

Weather Glass Houses,

Weather glass houses will be remen- bered by most middle aged folk as having charmed them in the days of their youth. when one was very generally to be found stuck up somewhere in the nursery. which was anxiously regarded by the little peo- pie on the mornings of high days and holidays, when pleasure depended mainly on the smiles of King Sol.
 These quaint little cottages are much valued nowadays, and anciept specimens which perhaps cost 26 cents are now sold at fancy prices. The cottages vary more or less in ornamentation, but all have two doors, and the inhabitants are a lit- tie man and little woman. whose mose- ments are controlled by a piece of catAut which, by contracting or expanding ac- cording to the state of the atmosphere. sends the little man out when 1t Is go- ing to rain and draws the little woman into the shelter of the house. not allow ing her to show her nose outside the door until the fine weather comes once more.
