MOMENTS HONOR.

II anything, we women are in these
days overscrupulous. principally owing
TO the fact that feminine honor in
the past has frequently been the sub
iect Of masculine gibes. Women were
formerly commonly supposed. and
generally allowed 10 cheat at croquet.
q privilege they shared with curates;
and in games where money changed
hands while the winnings were in
variably handed over 10 them, they
were never expected 10 pay when they

that to-day.-Ladies' Field.

THE MODERN FARMER
How He Lives ~ Compared with Fifty
Years Ago.


" HE farming life Of to-day. as
contrasted with that OF fifty
years ago, is paradise OF
comfort and convenience. The
lonely loghouse. remote from market
and devoid OF advantages that q half
cycle Of time has made possible, would
scarcely appeal 10 the present day
farmer.
The twentieth century soil tiller has
practically all the modern comforts.

telephone connection with the buying
and selling world, affording the best
opportunities for marketing 10 advan-
tage. His home is OF recent architec-
ture. constructed OF wood, brick or
stone, and well furnished. He has
modern plumbing and modern heating.
and with the advent OF acetylene gas,
he has modern Lighting. AT night his
home is as attrac,lvely Illuminated as
that Of his city brother, for il is a suc.
gestive fact that "acetylene for coun.
try homes" has so appealed 10 the farm

The continued growth and progress
OF this great country, ever cause Of

just Determination N Railway Rates.

All railroad men qualified 10 speak
on the subject in responsible way
are likely TO agree with President Sam
uel Spencer, OF the Southern Railway,
when he says: There is no division of
opinion as to the desirability of stop
ping all secret or unjustly dlscrimina-
tory devices and practices OF wha;so-
ever character"
Mr.. Spencer. in speaking of unjust
ly discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes a distinction which is at once
apparent TO common sense. There may
be discrimination in freight rates
which is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required 10y the complex COM
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have 10
deal. To abolish such open and honest
discrimination might paralyze the in-
dustries of cities. States and whole Sec
tions Of our national territory.
This distinction between just and
unjust discrimination is clearly reeog.
nized in the conclusions of the Inter
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should be based on commercial
principles, taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the commercial
value OF the services rendered. With the
reservation that rates shall be charged with
out arbitrary discrimination 10 all shippers
alikeunder like conditions, the making of
rates should as tar a. possible have all the
elasticity necessary 10 permit the develop
menr OF the traffic and TO produce the great
est results 10 the public and to the railroads
themselves"
The present proposal is, as Mr.. Walk
er ID. Hines, of Louisville, showed in
his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee al
Washington, TO crystaliZe flexible and
justly discriminatory rates into fixed
Government rates which cannot be
changed except by the Intervention OF
some Government tribunal, and by this
very process TO increase "the tempta-
ton TO depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order 10 meet
some OverpOwering and urgent com
merclal condition" New York Sun.
