COURTEOUS FRIENDS.

If YOU want to keep friend do not
get too intimate with her. Have your
own thoughts and permit her to have
hers. Do not demand too much OF her
in the way of confidence and do not be
too aggressive, wanting to know why
she does not do the same things you do
If YOU think your friends style of
dress is not beautiful, do not tell her.
lou only offend her, because deep in
her heart she is convinced that she
knows a great deal more about it than
YOU do. Do not find fault with your
friends friend, and do not expect to
be the only one owning corner in her
heart. Be as considerate of her feel
ings as if she were a stranger, and
remember that politeness is an every
day garment and not one intended only
for high days and holidays. To sum
it up in one sentence, preserve the cour'
tesy Of the beginning to keep your
friendship to the end.

There is not the slightest doubt that

simply vote it down if offered as a
plank of the Democratic platform. Mr..
BRYAN is not infallible and does not
pretend to be. He is right about many
things, eloquently and greatly right,
but absolutely and altogether wrong
about this one thing, especially from
the standpoint of racial peace and quiet
in the south. Let us strongly regulate
railroad rates, but not operate rail-
roads"
Mr.. Bryan refused on two former oe-
casions to recede, to carry either the
south or west. It is doubtful that he
would recede in 1908. His nomination
is not an assured fact and the demon
stration of an off.year need not be
taken too seriously. But none familiar
with the man can doubt that he will
insist upon the trunk line ownership

WHERE ARE THE DIMES?

Maybe you have noticed the scarcity
of dimes. Statisticians have discovered
that although more dimes are being
turned out of the mints than ever be-
fore. there are fewer than ever before
in circulation.
1t is said that there is now so great
q demand for dimes, and such a scarcl-
tv of them, that the coin rolling con-
cern, who make a business of putting
up coins in packages, are saving them
ND with a view to getting a premium
on them. A famine in dimes would
be serious affair. Even now there
are only three dimes per capital in cir
culation.
Since 1892, when the dime was es'
tablished, to the present, there have
been coined 520,OOO,0OO dimes. But the
sliqht relation which the total COIN
age. or even the amount outstanding
bears to the amount in circulation, is
shown in the fact that it is reported
by the treasury that there are still
outstanding about 100000 half cents

something, however, that labor of chill

forbidden. The Southern States can
none too quickly advance their factory
legislation to an equality with that of
Massachusetts. where for years manu-
faeturers, many of them also interest
ed in plants in the South, have used
those very southern establishments as
an argument for relaxing the restric-
tions on the New England mills which
must compete with them. Anything
more deleterious to general business
interests than the growth of commun-
tiles in which factory labor is largely
performed by adolescents could hardly
