Revenue and Currency.

Chicago Chronicle: Secretary of the
Treasury Shaw in his annual report
speaks of the decrease of $23, 100000 in
the cusoms receipts for the last fiscal
year as compared with 1905 and the
continued decrease during the early
months OF the year. In the opinion of
the secretary the decrease was due
rather to special and abnormal condi-
lions than to industrial and trade de-
preston. There has recently been an
increase in receipts and the secretary
sees no reason to believe that the rev.
enues from this source will be less dur
ing the current fiscal year than they
were in 1904.
1t Is pointed out, however, that the
receipts must be expected to fall be-
low those of 1903 because OF the aboli-
lion of the revenue duty on tea and
the countervailing duty on sugar and
because of.ethe reciprocity treaty with
Cuba.
Mr.. Shaw repeats what he said In his
report of last year In regard to our
bank note currency--that 1t does not
respond to- the varying needs Of
seasons or Of localities or of changing
conditions Of business"
This Is obviously true. but Mr.. Shaw
does not DTopose any rash measures
for imparttng elasticity to our ma
tional bank circulation He declares
empha tically that no measure should
be considered which would weaken the
currency by providing for the issue OF
anything less safe and secure than the
note circulation we now have.
Needing this warning against an ac-
lions liable to impair the excellence Of
the currency, congress Will not be hasty
In adopting any Of the plans that have

Simple Life Expensive.

The simple life is frightfully expen-
sive At recent entertainment in the
city a great luxury in the serving of
the second supper was the introduction
Of country sausage and buckwheat
cakes with maple strip. relates Town
and Country. But the sausage came
from the farm of the host and represent
ed small fortune, as the pigs from
which the piece de resistance was made
were blooded animals with pedigrees
The buckwheat was grown in special
fields which cost ever SO much foot,
and the maple strip was taken from trees
In the most expensive Adirondack
preserve. And thus can thousands of
dollars be spent on the simple life, while
truffles, pate, terrapin and such other
rarebits of former generation are left
for the tables of the middle classes with
moderate means.

WANTED SOMETHING SOLID
Channel Passenger Didn't Care II It
Was an Island or Con-

Gullins has given up his idea Of be-
coming a circumnavigator He had al
ways believed that nature intended him
for a bold and daring sailor, relates
London Tit-Bits.
After days excursion across the
channel without suffering in the least
from the up and down motion, there was
no holding him. When there came the
opportunity of a voyage to New York
his people were just as glad to let him
undertake it as he was to have chance
of showing his sailor-like qualities. And
this is the result. as faithfully recorded
by fellow-passenger:
Steward" called Gullins, feebly, on
the second day of the trip.
Eyes. SIR" briskly answered that on
cial. Anything i can bring you, sir?n
Yes said Gullins. Bring me--a-

sake. You can't? Ooh! Then SEND

ENGLISH CLING TO LUGGAGE
Britishers Show Antipathy to Being
Separated from Baggage
While on Tour.


Perhaps the strangest fact about the
English on their travels is their antip-
athy to being separated from their lug
gage. The system of registration OF the
continent and the checks of the United
States are known to them, but pater-
familias believes in seeing for himself
that the various items are labeled aud
put into the van, and if change OF
trains is involved, his anxiety, in spite
of all assurances, knows no bounds. Nor
have the railway companies enjoyed
much support in their efforts to intro
duce systems of collecting and delivering
baggage. Possibly the motor car MAJ
do something to break down this preju-
dice, and people will learn that their
treasured personal belongings can be
sent from place to place without their
own supervision, and then less cum
brous and Anticipated methods of dealing
