All these purposss may d most worthy
and the drains be unavoldably enlarged
by the high cost Of all commodities and
materials. and by the successive and sue
oessful extortions OF the labor unions; but
II, nevertheless. they result In creating
new issues Of corporate securities In greater
abundance than the supply Of money avail
able TO buy them with. the only ending
OF the matter must be a lowering OF corpora
ton credit. For the time being. at least,
some such result as this has already been
attained, for new bond issues by corpora
tons OF the highest solvency and credit
cannot now be successfully negotiated
except by the offering Of greater induce
ments to purchasers than would have
been thought possible a little time ago.
Consideration OF this matter has undoubt-
eddy evoked a conservative spirit that Is.
so far as its significance In the speculative
market is concerned. with difficulty
differentiated from that Of downright pes
simism. The opinion is constantly eI-
pressed in these quarters that while we
may pass through the coming summer
with safety. the beginning Of the fall sea-
son will witness a greater monetary strin-
gency than was present last year. One
OF the most eminent men in the financial
world said the other day that he almost
hoped for a crop failure this year; meaning
thereby that the money market would in
that case be spared a strain.
1t has been said In answer to all this
that there would be money enough In the
country for all legitimate business II specu-
lation could be kept quiet. But this OBJ
lection is without force. Speculation can
not be kept quiet. 1t Is the natural COM
plement of business prosperity. and So
called legitimate business itself Is largely
speculative in It's nature A circulating
medium which did not allow and provide
for the needs Of spectators would be worth
less; by which is meant, Of course, that
reasonable and not unreasonable provision
OF the kind In necessary; undoubtedly, pres
ent circumstances will strengthen the de-
mand that has recently arisen for an asset"
currency system but II 1t Il said that the
food Of money or of the paper promises OF
banks to pay money that the establishment
OF such a system will bring, Il necessary
to afford proper elasticity to the conduct
OF business affairs In our country, one must
recall the increase In the circulating medium
that has already occurred under existing
laws and wonder at the voracity OF the de-
mands, which. It appears, this increase has
stimulated and is no longer able to satisfy.
The circulation has increased In the last
six years almost as much per capita as in
the famous war time period between 1852
and 1893; and the volume Of the circulation
now is twice as great as It was then. A
change in the currency system cannot.
however. be effected for a twelvemonth at
least, and there are those who hold that
recent developments, instead OF empha-
sizing the wisdom Of placing the currency
on bank asset basis, initiate against 1t.

PREFERS HOME LIFE
WHY MANY ANDERSON WILL NOT RE-
TURN TO THE FooTuGHTS.

Once the Idol of the American Stage,
6heeIIas Been Many Years In Re-
tirement - "Reminiscences of Her
Career.
Mary Anderson, for years Americas
most famous actress, who was recently
guaranteed S250,0o0 for series of
readings in this country, has, it is an
nounced. declined this munifcent offer
and will remain in the seclusion of
domestic life. Miss Anderson retired
from the stage fourteen years ago and
since that time has refused many fat
tering Inducements to return to the
Thespian world.
Mary Anderson was the idol. of Amer
lean theater goers from the time of her
first appearance at the age Of sixteen
until she finally babe goodby to the
foOtlights. Since her retirement she has
lived q quiet life in England with
her husband and family. She has been
much interested in charitable schemes,
and much of her spare time has been
devoted to helpful work among the
poor.
Miss Anderson is a native of Cali
fornia, but her girlhood days were
passed in Louisville. Even as Il child
she gave evidence of the genius that
was later to blossom forth. She received
every encouragement from her stepfa-

New ideas In Trimming.

The New York girls latest trimming
idea is delightfully."- simple, though it is
most clever in its originality. 1t is
merely a linen trimming, but linen
beautified. Stitched linen bands and
embroidered linen bands are no longer
novelty, though they are modish. but
cut out odd designs in linen finished
with Il buttonhole stitch and appliqued
upon the skirt or waist are new and ex-
ceedingly effective.
A plain white linen waist or even
silk waist takes on a fetching new
beauty when it is trimmed, for in
stance, with clover leaves of green lin
en-, the shading filed in with an en-
broidery stitch as cleverly as if it were
hand painted. The clover leafea APP
plique is used to good effect to outline
the yoke. To trim the sleeves, and one
lucky four leaf clover gives an original
touch to the belt in front. These clover
leaves also make stylish trimming
for a dark blue taffeta shirt waist suit.
