A "Self Helper" For an Invalid.

Most people have seen the cOnven-
lent arrangements in hospitals by
which helpless patients can move in
bed without having to call for the
nurse In ones own house such con-
trivances are not possible. but willing
fingers can make quite Il good substi-
tute for the poor home invalid. n
length of rope is required sufficiently
long for the patient to catch hold of its
center with ease The rope has a
strong loop at either end. which
slips over the knobs of the Eedposts.
Rope is not the softeSt thing for deli
cate fingers to grasp. so the place
where the invalid will take hold has
about half yard of the rope covered
first with waddng and then with soft
knitting. \ long piece of garter stitch
knitting suffices for this, and when
completed it is folded round the wad-
ded rope and joined along the two
edges
THIS simple plan is a comfort to the
patient and by enabling him or her to
move from the one position creates a
feeling of independence and the happy
inner conviction, I'm sure I'm get
ting stronger"

Good Fruit Pays.

From time to time the wall goes up
that fruit growing does not pay, that
il is over,Ione that the market is glut-
ted and in consequence the fruit has to
be taken to the tip. If one has suft:-
cient curiosity TO take a run down to
the markets in order to probe deeper
into this matter he will see so much H.
ferior fruit being offered for sale, for
anything it will bring, that he is struck
dumb with wonder us to how the pro-
ducers of fruit of such inferior quality
can make a living out of it and that, II
they cannot produce anything better,
the wonder Is that they had not given
up fruit growing long before.-Ameri-

Insuring Deposits.

.&S A banker at Luck, Wis, urges T b e
ourn a to advocate the insurance Of
bank. deposits. He does not say SO
specifically, but evidently he intends
to have this insurance managed by the
federal government, or, in case of state
banks and private banks, by the state.
The proposition commends itself on. q
brief examination. There may be good
reasons why the government or the
state ought. not to undertake to insure
deposits, but there appear to be many
reasons why it would operate to The. aad-
vantage Of the public. ... -. .s s.o-.,>.
The national government now guar
antees the payment of all national bank
notes, no matter by what bank issued.
They are insured by the deposit Of gov
ernment bonds. The government takes
no risk in making them good, Of
course, it undertakes a different kind
fof obligation when it assumes the re-
spansibility OF paying ,Sdepositors ii
full. It guarantees the banking meth
dds and the honesty Of the banker, but
If it has sufficient guaranty fund, as
in the case Of the national bank note,
why may. it not guarantee deposits as
well as the validity of the bank notes.
1t is a practical business question
and the problem of, insuring bank de-
posits would seem to be. no more diff
cult Of solution than the insurance
