On Dressing Little Boys.

When the 3-year-old child doffs his
infant skirts he dons a Russian blouse
suit. This consists Of bloomer trousers,
full In the seat and leg and gathered
into a band below the knee, and a
blouse made in one piece. long enough
to reach from the neck to just above
h knee, %pleated, and belted at the
waist. Sometimes the belt is OF leath-
er. sometimes Of the same material as
the suit. 1t never fastcnS tightly, but
droops to a point in front in the mode
made familiar a couple of years ago by
the extremists in the straight-front,
~long-WaiSted effects.
Although the general style of these
suits is practically the same, the ma
terials as well as the minor details
leave room for variety. The suits for
dressy wear are usually white pique or
duck-all white or trimmed occasional
ly with narrow bands of blue or rcd, or
adorned with buttons. l speak Of
trimming and "adornment," but moth
ing must be allowed to detract from
the severity of the style. Any garni-
ture is in the shape of simple pipings
of the color preferred, and buttons are
big pearl affairs that will stand a visit
to the wash tub.

Duties Of the Press.

Samuel Bowles, editor of the Spring
field Republican, in an interesting
article in the July number Of the North
American Review, discusses The hide
pendent Press: Its Opportunities and
Duties" The American han
become politically independent; a party
organ OF the old fashioned type cannot
now be successfully maintained. But
a section of the press is bound in thral-
dom even more insidious and more dan
gerous to the welfare of society. The
newspaper selling for less than the cost
of the paper it is printed on is dom
mated by the advertiser. And yet,
for the rights n interests of the peo-
pie, and represents them or the whole
more efficiently thai ever before. This
it does, not SO much through editorial
opposition or advocacy, as by its publi-
cation Of news, for justice and truth
flourish in the light Of publicity. The
newspaper is. perhaps, the most i'm
portant agent in modern life, and it's
honest and intelligent service is vital to
progress. The community suffers when
the individual neglects his civic duties,
but when the newspaper is derelict or
corrupt the effect is momentous. It
must be abolutely devoted to public in
tereSts and stand for public enlighten-
ment n welfare. Essential to the ade-
quate fulnlment or Its functions are
honest art and genuine proportion in
it's construction. The newspaper-maker
on the n hand is a manufacturer, but
on the other his work is like hat Of the
earned professions, law, medicine, the
ministry, and should be conducted in
conformity to the standards which are
supposed to rule in those callings. Says
Mr.. Bowles:
The journal has one client. n pa
tient, one flock-that is to say, the
whole community; and nothing should
stand in the way Of his single-minded
and devoted Of hat me common inter-
est. He should beware Of all entangling
alliances-political, social, commercial
which may limit or embarrasC such SER
vice. He should let the honors and
emoluments of public office go to other
people. His own Office, if properly adj
ministered, is more important and pow
erful than any that his fellow citizens
are likely to confer upon him. The in
dependent newspaper may be and
should be the most vital and effective
investment that democratic society can
produce for its own advancement and
protection; and its true business well
fare, in the long view, lies in a COM
plete, intelligent, sympathetic devotion
to public interests"

Seventy Banks From ST..
From the American Banker

A record that has a tinge of romance,
a touch of pathos and a huge lesson
for US all, is that of w. S. Whitman of
Georgia. Twenty-Five years ago he left
the town Of La Grange, Ga, with the
munihcent sum of 81 in his pocket, and
landed in New York With nothing to
his credit but his clothes and his char
acter. The quality of the former does
not matter, and the quality of the lat
ter has shown itself. He is today pres
1dent Of seventy-five banks, all but -four
OF which are situated in his native
state. In return for Georgia's small
advance of 100 cents, he has pretty
Well cornered her banking interests,
and has in keeping a goodly amount of
her funds. The our banks of which
ne is president outside of the state of
Georgia are situated in Florida. These
institutions are all flourishing, all en-
JOY the absolute and we'll earned con-
fidence of the communities, and are run
for the interests Of the people as well
as the capitalists.
Mr.. Witham celebrated the Fourth of
July by having a little private banking
convention of his own at Warm
Springs, Ga, where he met the seven
ty-f1ve cashiers from the seventy-five
banks, possibly the most unique and
original gathering in the country.

The Gas Situation in New York,

From the American Magazine.
The worst feature of the gas situa-
ton in New York, SO far as the inter-
ests OF the general public are con-
cerned, lies in the disposition Of the
money which has poured into the
treasury of the Consolidated Gas COM
pany. Instead Of using these millions
strictly in the development of it's gas
business, the company has devoted the
greater part of them to the ACQUISITION
of the securities of electric lighting
and other companies which have so far
paid either very low dividends or none
at all.
fairs, however, the Consolidated has
continued to charge it's customers
enough to enable it to pay s per cent.
dividends on its oWn capital Of $50
000, 600. although only about one-third
of 1t is invested in its gas plants, with
the result that the gas consumers are
in fact being taxed through their gas
bills to meet a deficiency created by
the investment in securities which have
so far proved Improbable. Eventual
ly, these electric lighting companies are
certain to max enormo profits, and
as they are owned by the Consolidated
Gas company these profits will pour
into the Consolidated's treasury. What
then is to become Of the puDlic's in
terest? Will the price of gas be VOL
unfairly reduced because of the trusts
greater income, or will the prosperity
be made the basis for another water
ing Of the stock? Whatever the future
has in store, the fact remains that at
the present time competition has been
Stl{1ed, and whether one uses gas, cleo
tricity or only kerosene, it is all the
same to the men who are waiting with
open pockets at the confluence Of the

THE worst case of this kind that I ever

gave N also, and, handing up the keys
to the minister. said:
