THE reports of city and village and
township treasurers and collectors from
all sections of the state have shown better
payment of taxes than ever before and
closer and more satisfactory collections.
Not only an unusual condition of the
people of Michigan as to their ability to
pay taxes is shown III these reports, but
their satisfaction over the movement of
affairs and their willingness to pay
promptly are also indicated. 1t is worthy
of note in this connection that the delin-
quent tax lists of the past year repre-
scented fewer descriptions than at any
time during the past twenty years or more
and that the state expense which these
lists represent have been similarity re-
duced.

CREDIT is the most precious possession
a business man can have. 1t is acquired,
maintained. and preserved by certain
qualities that seem to be inherent in the
man. Credit is like a delicate piece of
porcelain. You may break it and put it
together again, and for purposes OF utility
il may possibly be just as good as it ever
was, but the cracks are there and you
can see where it was broken. And so it
is with the man whose credit is once
impaired. lie may be able to buy goods
again, his standing among mercantile
houses may be very fair, but it can never
be restored to the superb condition in
which it once was. And so all merchants
young and old, should regard credit as a
priceless possession. Do not let it be
TITLED with, and allow nothing to impair
i. or injure it.

THE difficulty involved in securing
satisfactory primary election law is
further shown in Illinois experience,
the law enacted i'll that state having been
declared unconstitutional by the Illinois
supreme court. An extra session of the
legislature has been called by Governor
Deneen to again take up the problem.
II will be recalled that Governor La Fol-
lette OF Wisconsin required an extra
legislation session to give the state its
present law, which even i'll its amended
condition the Democrats of Wisconsin
say they will not accept or make use of.
As compared with her sister states Michi-
gans experience in preparing a new
primary election law seems quite salts
factory.

American farm products sold to foreign
countries during the past eight months
and for the same period a decrease of
over SI3, 900, 900 in the value of foreign

1T required several years of constant
and consistent activity OF the part of
Michigans state officers to win the great
victory in the railroad tax case which was
announced from Washington last week.
Time and again there has been criticism
of the ways and means employed and Of
the costs incurred But from governor
and attorney general to the least import
ant official connected with the case there
has been the degree of loyalty manifested
and the character of work performed
which gave good reason to expect the
victory beforei it was officially announced.

RECKLESS AUTOMOBILES
A st. Louis Woman Killed and Her
Aged Sister Probably Fatally
Hurt at New Rochelle, N. Y.

New York.-Mrs. Alvin Stein
Of st. Louis, was fatally injured, and
her sister, Mrs. George Kuchler, of New
Rochelle, probably fatally hurt in that
village, Sunday, by being struck by an
automobile. Mrs. Stein had come on
to attend the celebration of her sisters
seventy-third birthday anniversary.
The women were walking in the
roadway and did not hear the approach
of the automobile which struck them,
and in which were riding two men and
three women. Mrs. Stein and Mrs.
kuchler were hurled with terrific force
against the stone abutments of a rail-
road bridge. Mrs. Kuchler's skull was
fractured and she suffered serious in
ternal injuries. Mrs. STEMS left arm
was broken and crushed and she also
suffered internal injuries. Both were
taken to a hospital, where Mrs. Stein
died a few hours later.
After the act the automobile was
driven away at a rapid rate. The po-
lice claim to have the number. of car
and are trying to trace it's ownership.

THOSE MISTY BLUE Eyes.

She sold me a book, and I do not know why;
She sold me a book ! had sworn not to buy;
I declared UP n down l would not even
look,
But l broke my resolve and she sold me her
book.
she was such a sweet lass--so unwilling
and shy,
With n wealth of lark hair and a fetching
blue eye.
And l frowned upon her with q threatening
look,
But she paid me no ~heed-only took out her
book.
I had sworn not to look, but she told me a
tale
OF a mother bedridden, so worn and 30
frail,
And of sisters and brothers. so young to
be fed,
And herself all alone. for dear father was
dead.
Quite untitled she was for the winning OF
bread- '
Father had been so good, but dear father
was dead.
And the fortune they'd cause to believe
had been his,
Well-a rascally partner; you know how
1t IL.
30 the bread must be won, and the rest
were SO young,
With the mother bedridden-some lesion of
lung
But of course. If 1 chose, she would never
insist
And her eyes shone with tears like two
stars through a mist.
80 she sold me the book, and the reason is
plain;
She would sell me another IL she came
again;
But they tell me dear father is hearty and
hale,
Content to be lead for the sake of a sale.
And the bedridden mother. so feeble and
Sigh.
AS she said, is bedridden-but only at night;
And there are younger children, all crying
for bread,
But all she knows of them Is what she has
read.
So she sold me and sold me her book-it is
But here, all alone, for my life I n tell
If it was her sad story ! could not resist,
Or her eyes that shone wet like two stars
through a mist.

The house, after two weeks con

ecutive and judicial appropriation bill,

the bill, was eliminated.
The senate passed a bill providing
for the reorganization of the medical
department of the army by autnoriz-
ing the appointment of officers to take
the place. of contract surgeons.
The urgent deficiency bill was passed
by the house, including an %appropria-
ton for the expense of the delegation
to the international conference at Rio
de Janeiro.
Following the presidents suggestion,
the house adopted several resolutions to
correct the useless printing of public
documents and to grant discretionary
power to the printing committees OF the
two houses.
