back and arms the French woman ex-
cells. She shrugs with them, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer. She says yes
and no, she expresses surprise, joy,
disdain and sorrow. all by the ges-
lures of her back and arms. She laces
her waist so tight that it seems as
though she would break In two. But
her bust is free and her breathing
space is full. She would not think of
cramping her lungs. She pulls the
laces tight below the ribs and below
the lung space and below the bust line
in order that the beautiful upper fig
ure may have plenty of room in
which to breathe and expand and be
graceful.

lLI-PAlD POSITIONS
IN WASHINGTON
BY MILLIHM B. SHAW
IN AMERICAN MONTHLY REVIEW OF REVIEWS.

Sam will probably have had gross
income about equal to what a man Oh
similar abilities, working the same
length of time. would have received
from a railroad company. AL the
start his salary would have been pet
ter than the railroad mans, Dut the
latter in all likelihood would nave
caught up with him and outstrlppeo
him in the ten-year period. In the
long run. one evens up with the otner.
This statement applies to the generai
departmental positions in washington.
A few months ago the statement
was carelessly made In an American
magazine that not 500 Of the Washing
ton office-holders looked upon their
offices as sacred trusts to the people.
The author of the statement declared
that public opinion among the civil
service employees regarded as ciear
gain anything that could be got out
OF the Government, whether an nour
time or railroad pass for betrayins
the Governments interest under the
care of the employees. Against sucn
cheap and wholesale charges should
be arrayed the undoubted consensus
of opinion among those who have ire
quent business dealings with the de-
partments, as well as among many dis-
interested observers in washington
who have had opportunities to STUDY
the facts that the average Government
employe is neither more or less moral
thar the average man or woman en-
pioyed in private business in any OF
our American cities. 1t will be re-
called that in the postoffice scandals
of the past few years the officials In
Gtrted have in every instance been po-
litical appointees; not one of the en-
ployes in the classified service has
been found guilty of any form of cor
rupton. The Government requires of
all applicants for positions in it's SER
vice just such Endorsement of char
acter as would be demanded by the
head of any business house. 1t would
lie as reasonable to make wholesale
charges of dishonesty against 9S per
cent of the employees of the New York
Central Railroad Company as to make
such charges against 9S per cent OF
Washington officialdom.

GUARDING THE CITYS MILK SUPPLY.

Secondly, letters were sent to the con-
signees In this city calling their at
tentiOn TO the filthy condition Of the
dairies supplying them with milk and
further notifying them that such milk
should not be delivered to customers
in this city. The effect OF these mea-
sures has been shown by action on
the part of these shippers and con-
signees. Several Of the consignees
have broken their contracts with the
owners Of filthy dairies and have made
other arrangements TO get a supply OF
milk from sources acceptable TO our
Department Of Health

baton shown, I remain, very respect
fully, d. r. RAGAN, M. D..

To the Editor of The Call:
I wish to express my appreciation
of the editorial which recently ap-
peared in The Call regarding the work
OF our Department of Health in guard
ing the milk supply from outside dali
ries. Our efforts in this regard were
commended, but a fear was expressed
that practical results of this inspection
might not follow. wish to explain to
you our method of making this work
practical: First, letters were sent to
the owners of dairies where conditions
existed in violation of our regulations
They were warned that unless they
complied with our regulations as TO
sanitary conditions their milk would be
quarantined at the point of delivery.

notably in the newly organized
Department of Commerce and
Labor, in which a sound knowledge Of
the law in one or more branches Is a
part of the qualifications required. A
man entering Oil an ordinary clerkship
may, by three or four years of study
at the law school, qualify himself for
enc of these semi-technical legal po-
siticns. Such a man may reasonably
expect quite as good an income in the
form of Government salary as the
average young lawyer gets in the
early years Of private practice. AS q
life career, on the other hand, Govern
ment work, it must be admitted, is
less alluring to the young man of am
bition. All the higher positions in the
service are notoriously ill-paid. 1t is
not at all unusual to find in Washing
ton officials of long experience and
the most thorough equipment, con-
trolling the disbursement of many
thousands of the Governments dol
lars, holding places of actual respon-
sibility and receiving a yearly stipend
of s2700, or even less. In some of

eral run of departmental positions 1t
is hard to discern any rewards at the
top that are really worth striving for

In regard to the compensation for

walton will probably confirm the cpl

the rounds to the effect that the pay

that some public officials are small for

fact that the pay is higher on the

Although the transfer OF ownership
has not taken place preliminaries have
been agreed upon by which the Hard
ing Company will take over the stock
of goods carried by the J. M. Wright

out of business.
The sale is prompted by the ex-
tensive mining interests Of Mr.. Wright
and Mr.. Pierce in the Cripple Creek
district which has grown so important
the last few months as to demand all
Of their time and attention. Mr..
Wright is expected to arrive here today
or tomorrow from Cripple Creek when
the deal between the two firms will
doubtless be closed.

made in relation to the lease held by

Bank block, which runs for five years,
it is understood that the Harding

The Cost. The Trust.

The average cost at the beet sugar
factory to produce 100 pound sack Of
sugar is Sl.92, how do you like to pay
$40. At this rate the Trust will only
make about II million dollars this
year on the Colorado industry. This
particular Colorado industry is built
up in poor Colorado where the capital
is furnished by the Trust. The same
trust extends from coast to coast.
How is it that you can buy cane
granulated sugar in Canada for 81 cts.
per pound, in sweetening quality 20
per cent. more than our dirty beet
beet sugar? Therefore, taking Canada
as standard, this same Trust is max
ing out Of the American people about
200 millions over and above fair
margin. Nevertheless we have to have
sugar and candy, and will continue
my Saturday sale of Tafy at 13 cents
per pound ; no beet sugar used.

time was the drowning Of Louis Como
RADIO and Chas. Marco at Rockvale last
Saturday afternoon, while skating on
Adobe pond. A large number OF young
people were enjoying themselves on
the pond when the ice gave way and
the unfortunate boys fell into the
water and were drowned in sight of
their companions. Several Of the
spectators jumped into the water and
endeavored to rescue them but with
out success as the bodies were carried
under the ice. The obsequies were
held at II O'Clock last Monday morning
in the presence OF large gathering OF
people. 1t was double funeral and
the bodies were inferred in tn, same
grave. The school children marched
from the school to the church and took

LENGTHY SERMONS.


Five OF Six Hours at . Stretch anA
Dtvisions Up to 'Eighty-sixthly."
No English congregation would have
listened to such sermons as used to be
popular In the Presbyterian churches
Of Scotland. There is indeed q story
told of dissenting preacher named
Lobb in the seventeenth century who.
when South went to hear him, being
mounted up In the pulpit and naming
his text. made nothing of splitting it
up into twenty-six divisions, upon
which separately he very carefully un-
dertook to expatiate In their order.
Thereupon the doctor rose up, and,
Jogging the friend who bore him COM
pany, said, Let us go home and fetch
our gowns and slippers, for find this
man will make night work of it,"
But Mr.. Lobb himself was humane
in the pulpit as compared to certain
Mr.. Thomas Boston, to whose sermons
Sir Archibald Geikie has drawn atten-
ton in his Scottish "reminiscences" I"
Mr.. Thomas Boston, who wrote book
called ''Primitiae ct Ultima" was min
lister of the gospel at Ettrick. In a ser
mon on Fear and Hope, Objects of
the Divine Complacency," from the
text Psalm cSlvil, IL, THE Lord tax
eth pleasure in them that fear him and
in those that hope in his mercy" Mr..
Boston. after an introduction in four
sections, deduced six doctrines, each
subdivided into from three to eight
heads, but the last doctrine required
another sermon which contained "a
practical improvement of the whole
arranged under eighty-six heads. A
sermon on Matthew xi. 2S, was subdi-
vided into seventy-six heads.'" On this
text, indeed, Mr.. Boston preached four
such sermons.
1t is more than doubtful whether any
brains or hearts south of the Tweed
could have stood the strain of such
discourses. But Scotch preacher.
not in the present degenerate age. has
been known to preach from five to six
hours at stretch, and sometimes
when one preacher had finished his
sermon another would begin and there
would be a succession Of preachers
