Reading a Few Good Books.

Speaker Cannon recalls the days of his
youth with enthusiasm. He lived among
pioneers on the Wabash where eyery one
had the ague and the kerosene lamp had
not figured among the modern conven-
fences. Butt he feels no trace of the
hardships of the life which looks good to
him In the retrospect He indicates that
II there were pain and sorrow and heroic
endurance In reading by the light of a
fire the boys of the time were unconscious
of their suffering and their heroism. They
did so much outdoor work that going to
school was pleasant diversion and the
reading was intensely enjoyable. 1t was
limited. however, to a very small library.
We quote here what the Speaker said ON
u ehe SUBJECT IN the Sunday Magazine for
September Is:
I'VE had the Bible and standard his
tories, with few books Of standard poets
and novels. and read these just as eager
ly as the boys on the street today read
the widest stories of cowboys and In
dams"
Probably many of our readers have met
men OF the Speakers generation who re-
vea!ed a much more thorough knowledge
or the English classics after just such an
eaucation than do their children and
grandchildren who have enjoyed greater
educational advantages. They not only
remember what their old books contained
but quote from them freely, whereas the
children and the grandchildren seem to
have read without zest and to have car
ried away nothing. This does not prove
that the old education was superior to
the new. 1t was certainly system by
which only the bright children with
eager. inquiring minds profited. But the
facts do emphasize the lesson that the
value of multiplying books and courses
and all the educational machinery NAV
be greatly overestimated. As for the
reading. there is a saying Of Frederic
Harrison's that will always hold good
The time that is spent on the worthless
book might be given to the best books
and it is worse than wasted. OF course
one should not absolutely neglect con-
temporary writers for classics, but the
mere effort to keep up with a limitless
output makes scatterbrain.

A Story Of Fires.
rom the Youths Companion.

From the Youths Companion.
Figures collected by the International
Society Of State and Municipal Blu. lding
Commissioners and Inspectors show that
every week, on an average, fires in the
United States burn up three theaters,
three public halls, twelve churches, ten
schools. two hospitals, two asylums, two
colleges six apartment houses, three
department stores. two jails, twenty-six
notes.-the fires at seashore resorts this
summer will raise the hotel average-14O
flat" houses and LOCO single dwelling
houses. Such record of waste is bad,
but it is not surprising in a land of
wooden buildings. Moreover, many of the
buildings destroyed would have been torn
down If they had not burned. A country
man who suffered from a slight fire said
he had lost two houses and three barns

The Mexican Cargador.

From the Mexican Herald.
Just as one finds the rickshaw every
where in India, so one finds the cargador
in Mexico. He is a beast of burden. In
general he is a comparatively small man,
with broad shoulders and stout arms and
legs. To look at him one would not think
he would be able to carry heavy burdens.
But the weight he can carry is surprising.
You have trunk you can scarcely move,
for instance. You send for a cargador. He
gets it upon his back. high up on the
shoulders, and he marches off with 1t as
easily as though it were plaything. A
life dedicated to carrying heavy burdens
has made this work easy for him. A
slightly built Mexican will carry over 500
pounds on his shoulders for short dis
tances.
Until lately almost everything in Mexico
City and everywhere else throughout the
republic was carried upon the backs of
cargadors. II you wanted to move your
household furniture you hired a certain
number of cargadors. For house-movng
they generally work in pairs, each pair
having hand truck, which they pick up
and carry. when it Is loaded, for it has no
wheels. In Mexico City there are still
hundreds of these hand trucks, though
one may now find plenty of carts, wagons
and heavy moving trucks. There are also
regular transfer companies. But all of
these are Of very recent importation.

THE COTTON MARKETS.

NEW YORK, November 3e.-The cotton
market opened steady at decline OF
2a5 points, which was considered better
than due on the disappointing cables, and
after the opening advanced on Wall street

Of trade conditions. and the continued
influence Of small crop estimates.

some of those who were recently working
for higher prices seemed to be opposing
the upward movement. but offerings

FOR EMERGENCY CURRENCY.
Proposed to Base Bank Circulation
on Accountable Securitjes

Senator Aldrich, chairman of the finance
committee, is in Washington and spent a
busy day talking with colleagues in the
Senate and leaders in the House on cur
rency legislation for the coming session.
Senator Aldrich is of opinion that legisla-
ton providing some form of emergency
currency should be enacted and he hopes
it will be possible to agree upon an emer-
gency bill early in the session
In other quarters it was said today that
an effort will be made to secure an agree
ment among leading men in both houses
upon bill which will embody as the
main feature authorization for national
bank circulation based upon securities
now available as security for government
deposits and which shall be taxed Z per
cent, as the maximum, the tax to be
graded. Provision will be made for re-
tirement of the emergency circulation and
at the pleasure of the bank taking it out.
1t has been suggested to Speaker Can
non that the committee on banking and
currency be appointed In advance Of the
announcement Of the full committee list.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The improvement in the tone in the
general business world-that is to say, the
increased confidence and cheerfuiness Of
people In regard to the future--esults in
daily betterment in ali directions. Hence
1t is that there are reports OF industrial
establishments resuming operations and
railroads taking on more men and in
general a return to normal conditions.
This situation Is reflected in the up
ward movement in the general stock mar
ket, which received no setback today,
but on the contrary another forward
notch.
The average price of twenty-five rep
resentative railroad bond issues for the
current month which closes today shows
a decline of but "a per cent from the
October average. In the opinion of the
Wall Street Journal that showing re-
meets very substantial improvement in
the prices of several of the active bonds
during the past few days. On this account
ket at the present time is relatively much
better than might have been expected in
view Of the critical period through which
it has SO recently passed.
All these indications of better state of
feeling needs emphasis. for 1t Is recog-
nized there is nothing radically wrong
with the business of the country; that
there Is a-plenty to do and abundant
means TO DO II with, ana all that Is need
ed. in the opinion Of those who are most
familiar with conditions, is cheerfulness
and confidence.
Great is the value Of the sunshine Of the
heavens exclaims a commentator on the
current financial situation. but greater
still is the service of sunshine in the hui
man spirit. If even a minority of the
population, he adds, which Is gainfully
employed should make a point OF cheering
up and taking hopeful views of the busi-
ness outlook, it would, before the end Of
the calendar year, add millions to the
value OF properties and projects with
which they are connected.
1t is quite evident from the limits placed
on the awards to subscribers for the new
per cent certificates that the need which
called them forth Is already disappearing
Otherwise. it is thought more than a
quarter Of the entire issue would have
been allotted. AS 1t Is, the certificates
go to banks instead of to individuals. and
VIII be used as basis for additional ma
tiona! bank circulation.
No doubt the moral effect Of this action
on the part Of the Treasury Department
has been among the influences which
have brought about q better state of feel
ing throughout the country. SO that the
boarding of n1oney-against which the
issue of certificates was specially direct
ed-has evidently been abandoned to a
large extent, SO that, in addition to the
expansion OF the circulation, the new
government securities have brought fur
Their ease to the money market by restor-
ing to the channels Of business a good
deal Of currency which timidity had tenn
porarily withdrawn from circulation.

Golf Rules.
From the New York Sun.


American golfers are yearnins for a
simpliflcation of the rules. They want to
walk the links in calmness and sere nifty
unvexed by the complications of a mixed
and confusing code. Not long ago the
executive committee of the United States
Golf Association sent an intimation of the
frame of mind of our players to the con-
SENATORS of the code. the rules committee
of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of
st. Andrews, Scotland. In the friendly
reply the chairman said that the rules
were to be revised and that draft would
be sent to the American committee for
amendments and new suggestions. Fur
thermore. member of the st. Andrews
Club in this country has been elected to
the rules committee.
Many of our golfers believe that 1t will
be idle to tinker the old code again. Origi-
nally framed to suit conditions on a few
Scottish links. the revisions of every five
or ten years have not clarified the rules,
and in some instances have created a
conflict of judgments. 1.-THE rules have
been added to. subtracted and divided
enough" to quote an American player,
land it is time for new set"
But there must be no change in the old
golf!

A Saint in Cement.
From the Cement Age.

from the cement age.
An intere sting souvenir OF st. Geroni-
mo, whose martyrdom consisted in being
thrown alive into block of setting con-
crete, is at present on exhibition in the
quarters of the Concrete Association Of
America, New York. 1t consists of a
photograph Of the cavity left by the
saints body, and was secured by Frank
P. Baldwin, chief engineer of the battle
ship Maine, while visiting Algiers. Ac-
cording to history, there was born about
the year 1920 an Arab boy named Ger
onimo. He was captured in infancy by
the Spanish garrison at Oran, and when
about eight years old he escaped from
his captors and went back to his family
living as Mohammedan till the age of
TIVE nty five. He then voluntarily returned
to Oran and resumed the Christian life
which he had adopted previously when in
the hands of the Spanish authorities.
few years later he went on coasting raid
with a party of Spaniards. but the raid
Crs were themselves captured by Moor
ish corsair and brought to Algiers. Here
the attempt was made to convert him to
Mohammedanism, but he persistently re-
fused to embrace that faith. SO that he
was tried and condemned to die. His
was cast alive. face downward, into
block Of concrete, then being prepared
for the Fort des Vingt Quatre Heures,"
then building. Careful note was taken of
the spot by Haido. a Spanish Benedictine
missionary to Algiers. who prayed the
time might come when the Lord would
pave the way for his exhumation and
Christian burial. In 1853 the French
found it necessary to destroy the fort, and
the data left by Haido was found to be
correct, for the designated block of con-
crete on being cut open disclosed the
bones of Geronimo and the cavity left
by his body. The bones were removed
December II, 1853, and given Christian
burial and they now rest in a massive
stone sarcophagus in the cathedral. A
plaster cast was made of the cavity and
afterward photographed.

Pleasure-Loving People.
rom the London Lady's Pictorial.

Money is scarce, doctors are living on
pittance, clergymen are starving and
even stock brokers are on their uppers.
All these announcements are wonderful
and my lady wonders accordingly. For
she has been looking at the shop windows
and wondering why, If all these expensive
things are not meant to be bought. they
somewhere.
The mystery increases when one notes
the people who seem 20 nave plenty of
spare cash. You have only to try for a
pit seat at matinee in the central Lon
don district to find some hundreds of
people who have apparently nothing to do
but to spend their money in enjoyment.
How do all those apparently impecu-
NOUS people achieve bicycles, and even
motor cars? There is enough money apout.
evidently. and it isn't the fault Of the
money II it doesn't go the right way.
