members are my wife and three daugh-
tiers and I have appointed them a re-
cruiting committee to convince other
women and girls of the necessity OF
joining. I have often noticed. particu-
larry in street cars, that women will
place small coins between their lips
while opening and closing their purses.
The mere touching Of these promiscuous
coins with the fingers is bad enough,
for contagious disease may be COM
municated in this way, but the placing
of coin in the mouth is not only dis
gushing but absolutely dangerous.

it TO a handsomely dressed woman in

seFather of the Thought. :"

John Lovett. better known as John,
the orange man." who died recently at
Cambridge. was for many years one
Of the landmarks Of Harvard Univer-
sity. For brief period he appeared on
the stage playing himself in the New
York run of Brown of Harvard with
Harry Woodruff as the star of the piece.
Il used to know the old man we'll when
was at college, said Mr.. Woodruff
the other day. He was always a
staunch supporter OF the crimson in all
her athletic games and was regarded as
a mascot. His hatred of Yale was as
intense as was his love of Harvard. I
remember on one occasion some visit
ors were inspecting the grounds of the
University and paused at the gateway.
John was there with his basket OF
fruit. One of the visitors read the in
scription "Veritas" over the gateway
and thinking to have some fun with
John. turned to the old man and said;
What does 'Veritas' mean?"
/ I'm not quite sure" said John, But
think 1t means To hell with YALE

THE OLD MAID SPIRIT.

IL appears that the people OF
Crown Point are still very much dis
grunted over the fact that the county
councilmen did not see fit to allow
the expenditure of 100000 for an ad-
dition to the court house. 1t is not
likely that there is any one who thinks
seriously that the court house should
be moved from its present location at
Crown Point, although It must be ad-
mitted that it Is rather announcement
for 10000 people to so to a city Of
5. 600 inhabitants 16 miles away to pay
their taxes.
The people of Hammond are willing
that Crown Point should retain the
county seat. but they do demand that
certain improvements that are vitality
necessary to the progress of the north
end OF the county be made Homogene-
Gus is a word that no more applies to
Hammond than does the word beautI-
ful and the people of this city will
have to work to make the city more
homogeneous as well as more beauti-
fuI. In order to do this there viii have

is as yet no attempt to extend more
than scale down support. Decisive &C
ton will come in this respect if there
is any tendency to Generalization. The
sagging is chiefly the result of pro-
fessional antagonism some disguised
and tired liquidation, as near as we
can Judge. The factors making the in
siders reluctant to take any aggressive
stand on the long side are: The crop
situation, the tendency of money to go
to Europe, the large capital issues
pending, crippled speculative buying
power of rich men, tendency to rail-
roads decreased earnings, fear of a
trade reaction, high operating expenses
of corporations, lack of investment de-
mand, coming presidential year with
its usual restrictions, worldwide wheat
shortage and demand for funds in
Europe, large railroad note debt to
Europe, London labor troubles, federal
action against Hartman interests,
Western Union strike talk, and last
the report this morning against the
Standard Oil company. On any break
today purchases with a small stop
order should be made for a moderate
turn in the standard dividend paying

HIT EN- AGAIN!

Word from indianapolis to the eff
feet that the burden of the increase in
taxes is to be borne largely by the
steam railroads comes as balm to the
hearts of everybody excepting the rail
road corporation. The raise this year
was twelve and one-half millions and
of that almost three-quarters has been
placed opposite the names of the steam
roads.
Despite the wall made by the rail-
roads there seems to be well founded
opinion that the limit Of their en-
durance has not been reached by the
recent adverse legislation and there is
still a general disposition to swat them
one whenever the opportunity affords.
