And Mrs. Jones was. too
u That Is to say.
Good Mrs. J.
Was thrifty and would do
Her share IN saving. but she thought
Her husband was a lit too taaL
He kept the purse strings tied around
His fingers n a twist.
And every time
She got a dime
ehe had TO force his fist.
Don't spend 50 much" he'd always
say
Were saving for a rainy day"
John owned a lot Of property
In buildings. farms and grain,
With. Eteck galore
And stuff in store.
But never stopped the strain
To gather In all he couid get
Against the day that might be wet.
And still his wife could scarcely ana
Enough TO eat and wear.
Her bonnet had
Grown old and sad.
Her clothes made people etare
But John stayed In his narrow yay
And harped upsvn ''the rainy day"
VI years went by: John saved and
saved-
Until b wet spring came.
When foods poured down
On farm and town
And washed away the same.
Including Johns possessions. which
By now had made him very rich.
John and his wife took to the hills
To save themselves. and he
Began 20 swear
And rip and tear
AT his adversely.
Indeed. II was enough to cause
a man TO break the ten first lava
But Mrs. J. was less disturbed.
And as she shook her head
At Johns distress
And wickedness
In swearing 50 she said:
Now. John. don't carry on that vav. |
You saved It for a rainy dav."

A PESSlMISTIC PlUTOCRAT,
Has Rockefeller Been Caught In riis
Own Net?

What does this pcssimism portend,
| that seems to prevail with so many
| of the frenzied fnanciers? Here we
John d. Rockefeller telling us that
many business men in this country
have suffered a loss amounting to
millions Of dollars through shrinkage
in the value of their shareholdings
during the IL. months just past" He
accounts for it by the unwarranted
attacks that have been made upon
corporate interests and thinks the
man with the dinner pail will be the
next to suffer.
Mr.. Stuyvesant Fish, whom Mr.. Har-
rimaI deposed as president of the H.
linois Central railroad, warns the pub
lie that there are many indications
Of a great Industrial crisis. He also
declares that the Wall street stock
exchange has become "the plaything
of few managers of cliques and
pools" These opinions from two diff
ferent elements of our financial mag
mates do not agree with the general
impression, that the railroads, the
industrial trust and other corporations
are most prosperous and therefore
should be contented. 1t is evident
that Mr. Rockefeller fears the future
and would try and arouse the public
mind to similar fears But his evi-
dence that many business men have
suffered loss through shrinkage in the
value of stocks is very unconvincing,
for the dividends on stocks have been
very generally increased, so that the
owners should be low better off than
they were before. Standard Oil stock
has paid 40 per cent on its par value
and although the price of the shares
has declined from $706 to S505, yet
that can make no difference to Mr.
Rockefeller unless lie is trying to un-
load Standard Oil shares on the pub
lie. All his enormous railroad hold
ings are in similar condition. The
stock may be quoted at lower price
but the net earnings have increased
and in many instances the dividends
have been largely increased. The real
value therefore of stocks has not de-
creased, but the frenzied financiers
have lost control of the market for
them and capnot induce the public to
give seven dollars for what is only
worth five dollars.
1t can hardly be possible that the
good John d. r. is one of the manag'
ers of the wicked cliques and pools
that Mr.. Fish tells us are playing With
the stock exchange and has become |
involved in web of his own creation,
perhaps spun with delicate care to
catch some other clique manager, or
at all events to catch the public. II
John d has bevn caught in his own |
net, no wonde" he has turned pessi. |
mist and looks with gloomy eye |
on the future.

THE sHIP-sUBsIDY STEAL.
Great Pressure Brought on Congress
to Pass II.

The ship-subsidy grafters are max.
ing bold attempt to pass an amend
ed bill, through the house of represen
tatives, as a substitute for the bill
which passed the senate at the last
session providing for a subsidy to
ships, of which the steamship trust
will be the principal beneficiary
These subsidy hunters are certainly
the most persistent applicants for gov
ernment bounty that ever pestered
congress. The chief movers, in fore
ing the passage Of this subsidy bill,
have a claim on many Republican
statesmen, for Senator Hanna when
committee promised Griscom of the
American steamship line that the sub
sidy bill should be passed in considera-
tion OF a large subscription to the
Republican campaign fund in 1898.
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Babcock, who was then chairman of
the Republican congressional commit
tee, informed President Mckinley,
near the close of that campaign, that
the Republicans would lose control of
congress unless there was money pro-
vided to take care of the doubtful
districts. Senator Hanna was called
into the conference and the Doodle
fund was provided. Senator Hanna
tried faithfully to carry out his prom
ise to pass the subsidy bill, but the
fear of rebuke by the people prevent
ed its passage through the house. In
every congress since that time the ef-
fort to pass the bill has been repeated
and President Roosevelt has recon-
mended its passage, probably because
he feels that the Republican party is
in honor bound to carry out the prom
ise made by its chairman, for value
received.
But the ship-subsidy schemers are
not relying solely upon the good faith
of the Republican politicians to get
a return for their investment in Re-
publican politics with a thousandfold
interest, but are now busily engaged
in obtaining promises from Republi-
can congressman to vote for the bill.
Speaker Cannon prevented the bill
from being considered by the house
at the last session of congress, for
which he is entitled to the thanks OF
the taxpayers, and if he persists in
this good work, the subsidy schemers
may yet be defeated. To sugar coat
the bitter pill to better suit the public
taste the subsidy grafters have re-
named their offspring "subvention" in
stead of subsidy, but that will hardly
fool the people who will be taxed to
pay the bill.
The Democrats are united against
the steal and many honest Republi-
cans will also oppose it, and if the
president would keep his hands off,
the ship-subsidy schemers will again
be discounted and right will prevail
over wrong and political corruption
will be again rebuked.

THERE are a host of petty ailments
! which are the direct result of the
weather.
This is more true of the excessive
heat of summer and the intense cold
of winter, but is partly true of all
seasons of the year.
Whether it be a cold or a cough,
catarrh of the head or bowl complaint,
whether the liver be affected or the
kidneys, the cause is very liable to
be the same.
The weather slightly deranges the
mucous membranes of the organs and
the result is some functional disease

Not long ago g. woman in a New
York library was observed smelling
the books. She explained that she
never took those that bore an odor Of
perfumery, but preferred those redo
lent of tobacco. "The best books"
she said, "are read by men," 1t is
no doubt reasonable to avoid books
and most other things-that are
drenched in perfumery, but the book
that reeks with tobacco may lack
every other element of strength. Like

they are smoked, but unlike hams,
they are never cured by smoking

Twice recently The Youths Com
panion has Inadvertently repre-
sented Franklin as a Quaker. The
explanation of this error. which
is probably widespread, is that
Franklin, being a simple citizen
Of Philadelphia, wore clothes of a
fashion set by the Quakers, a plain
gray or drab suit. He continued to
wear this costume while he was in
France. Once when his court suit
was not ready, he appeared in his
republican" garb before Louis XVI.
He became the fashion OF France, and
indeed in nearly all Europe, and it
was at one time the proper thing for
young republicans and litterateurs to
dress la Franklin.
