The Republicans are doing their best
to get up show of enthusiasm in their
convention, and are even resortine to
tricks, such as springing portrait Of
Roosevelt upon the delegates. But it il
a tame convention, and the enthusiasm is

avail yourself of their advice Tell all
France to bring in it's gold, to enable
you to put something essential under
the value of all this paper money which
you have been sending out so lavishly,
SO unthinkingly, SO without stint or
measure"
Yes. And them"
why, then, your grace" said Law,
then we shall see what we shall see!"
The regent again choked with anger.
Law continued 60 on. Smooth down
the back of this animal Continue to
reduce these taxes. The specie of the
realm of France, as | am banker
enough to know, is not more than
1900, 100000 livres, allowing IS hvres
to the marc. Yet long before this your
grace has crowded the issue of our
actions until there are out not less than
2,6O0,OO0,0OO livres in the stock of
our company. Your Brothers Paris,
your D'Argenson, your Dubois will tell
you how you can make the people of
France continue to believe that twice
two is not four, that twice Is is not
26!"
But this they are doing" broke in
the regent, with ray of hope in his
face. This they are doing. We have
provided for that. In the council not
an hour ago the Able Dubois and
Monsieur d'Argenson decided that the
time had come to make some fixed
proportion between the specie and
these notes. We have to-day framed
an edict, which the parliament will
register, stating that the interests Of
the subjects of the king require that
the price of these bank notes should
be lessened, so that there may be some
sort of accommodation between them
and the coin of the realm. We have
ordered that the shares shall, within
80 days, drop to 1900 livres, in another
80 days to 1000 hvres, and so on, at
500 livres a month, until at last they
shall have value of one-half what
they were to-day. Then, tell me. my
wise Monsieur Las, would not the issue
of our notes and the total of our specie
be equal, one with the other? The
only wrong thing is this insulting pre-
sumption of these people, who have
sold actions at a price lower than we
have decreed"
Law smiled as he replied You say
excellently well. my master These
plans surely show that you and your
able counselors have studied deeply
the questions of financei l have told
you what would happen to-day with
out any decree of the king. Now go
you on. and make your DEGREES. You
will find that the people are much
more eager for values which are going
up than values which are going down.
Start your shares down hill. and you
will see all France scramble for such
coin. such plate, such jewels as may
be within the ability of France to lay
her hands upon Tell me, your grace,

For Her Heaith's sake.

Postmaster General Payne says there
is western bishop who has been visit
ing regularly a certain town to make
combinations for Is or 20 years, and
who decided last year that there was
one woman in this towns confirmation
class who had a familiar look. He
studied the woman, therefore, closely.
He scrutinized her figure, her face, her
dress. She was old and poorly clad
and decidedly her appearance was IA
miliar
Haven't seen you before?" said the
bishop.
Indeed ye hev. sir returned the
woman. cordially.
Haven't l confirmed you before?"
'Oh, yes, sir; many time, sir
"Why-what on earth-now-" the
bishop, amazed and perplexed, began;
but the woman, smiling, interrupted
him to explain:

kin, cause I'm told it's good for the

has taken. Sir, if you seek to brighten
me, you fail"
But, look you-consider," said the
regent Something must be done"
GAS l said." replied Law.
But what is going to happen? What
will the people do"
First" said Law, judicially, Ticking
at the deep lace Of his cuff as though
he were taking into consideration the
price of wig or cane, first, the price
of a share having gone to 10000 livres
this morning, by two o'clock will be
SO low as 10000. BY three o'clock this
afternoon it will be 5000. Then, your
grace, there will be panic. Then the
spell will be broken. France will rub
her eyes and begin to awaken. Then,
since the king can do no wrong, and
since the regent is the king, your grace
can do one of two things. He can send
a body-guard to watch my door, or he
can see John Law torn into fragments,
as these people would tear the real au-
thor of their undoing, did they but rec
ognize him.
But can nothing be done to stop
this? Can it not be accommodated?
ASK yourself. But 1 must go on to
say what these people will do. All at
once they will demand specie for their
notes. The Prince de Cont will drive
his coaches to the door of your bank,
and demand that they be loaded with
gold. Jacques and Raoul and Pierre,
and every peasant and pavior in Paris
will come with boxes and panniers,
and each of them will also demand his
gold. Make edicts, your grace. Pub
lish broadcast and force out into pub
licity, on every highway Of France,

not so good as your bank notes; that
no one must have gold or silver; that
no one must send his gold and silver
out of France, but that all must bring
it to the king and take for it in ex-
change these notes Of yours. Try that.
1t ought to succeed, ought it not. your
grace?" His bantering tone sank in
to one of half plausibility.
"Why, surely. That would be the
solution"
"Oh, think you so? Your grace is
wondrous keen as financier! Now
take the counsel of Dubois, of D'Argen-
son, my very good friends. This is
what they will counsel you to do. And
will counsel you at the same time to

departed with a broad grin of happi-

medicine than because his own diagno-
sis of his case had been so promptly
accepted.

True to Her Task.

1t would be disreSpectful to say that
there is anything obstinate about a
sitting hen. but one must acknowledge
at least that she is firm.
There is story of good old coun-
try doctor who found that hen was
sitting in the back of a wagon, long
unused. His everyday wagon had
given out, and he needed the old one
to make a round of calls; 80 he har-
messed up and started, the hen and all.
Thus he continued to do day after day,
and the sitter was faithful to her post.
Only the eggs suffered inconvenience.
for the jarring finally added them.
The Springfield Republican tells the
story of another hen which was en-
gagged one night in brooding over some
eggs in a barrel in the livery stable
where she made her home.
The stable caught fire. With the
courage of the boy on the burning
deck, she refused to leave her post.
The top of the barrel took fire. 1t
burned halfway down, and still the
hen did not move.
The stable was almost totally de-
stroyed, but the firemen had the flames
SO far under control that a stream Of
water. turned upon the hens apart
ment, extinguished the blaze.
The smoke did not seem to disturb
the hen, nor did the food of water
pouring down the inside of the barrel.
When daylight came she was still in
her half-burned tenement, and in due
time she brought off her brood of eight
chickens.
