IL Looked Suspicious.

Five-year-old Lewis had on several
occasions successfully evaded his nurse
and paid surreptitious and delightful
visits to the workuen on an apartment
house In process of building at the cor
ner of his block. AS the result of his
observations there he unconcernedly
and without prejudice emitted choice
and varied assortment of profanity at
the luncheon table. His shocked moth
er tried to impress upon him that
never, never again must he repeat such
words. But Lewis either lacked dis
elimination or his parents warning
had not been sufficiently impressive.
for few days afterward he vented a
notable addition to his vocabulary of
explosives. His mother this time wait
ed not for speech, but promptly and
firmly seized the young man and wash
ed his mouth out with soapsuds, which
she had already demonstrated as an
effectual spiritual cleanser.
A few days afterward Lewis was
watching the nurse giving his six
weeks-old sister her bath, and when
nurse carefully washed out the little
mouth Lewis asked interestedly.
Nurse, has baby been saying naughty
words New York Times.

AS an Illustration of the old saying
that doctors Will differ" the following
is related by physician of unques-
toned yeracity: In the course of a
lecture which he was delivering before
a number of students he had brought
In by the mother q child six months
old, which, he stated, was suffering
from very peculiar affection. and he
requested five of the students present
each separately to diagnose the case.
The first gave it as his medical belief
that the child was suffering from incip-
lent pneumonia; the second, after eX-
animation, pronounced it incipient
diphtheria; the third staked his repu-
tation upon its being peritonitis; the
fourth called 1t marasmus, while the
fifth said 1t was malaria. When they
had each made a careful examination
the lecturer said:
"Well, gentlemen, have you anything
further to say in regard to the ca seF
Nothing more than has been already
said" was the reply from each.
Well" said he, taking the little one
and holding II before them. this is

"FearI HearI"

The parliamentary Hear, hear!F
was not always an expression of ap-
prevail So one learns from DIR. Muir
rays dictionary. The phrase was orig
inally "Hear him, hear him" used as
an exclamation to call attention to a
speakers words. We have record of
its use In 1859 and as late as 1868. A
member of the house of commons In
1868, being interrupted in speech by
a Hear retorted, THAT very word,
Hear / dread of all Others" and
member In 1910 referred to its use as
.'disorderly." The unabridged form,
Hear himr' was in use SO late as the
beginning of the century Lord Stan
hope tells us, in his Life of Pitt,
that when that statesman reappeared
in the house of commons in May, 1903,
after a long absence in opposition. he
was hailed as he passed up the gang

els Horner. who was in the strangers

Demand For Money
A Sign of Prosperity.

b v AUGUST BLUM. Vice presidcnto of the FRS Natonal AMI Of CHICAGO.
I is right to say that money is firm and demand for accommodate
ton on banks is very strong. This condition, far from being
alarming, is simply the result Of an ACTIVE AND PROS
Porous BUSINESS CONDITION throughout the United
States. Manufacturers and merchants saw the opportunity of an active
and prosperous business by increasing their operations, and hence
STRETCHED their credit as far a. circumstances would permit.
Such a condition could not last and if continued would probably
have resulted in disaster. Banks recognized this state of affairs and
used every means within their power to curtal this expansion of credit.
AS a result A CHECK HAS BEEN PUT ON AN EXPANSION
OF BUSINESS, leading to a ST called recession. l believe this con-
dition of credit has terminated what otherwise might have been a DIS
ASTROUS CRISIS.

rial easement during the early part Of January, when funds generally
flow back to centers.
IT is WORTHY OF NOTE THAT ALL THROUGH THE PRESENT
CRISIS THE CONDITION OF COUNTRY BANKS HAS BEEN TIE
MOST POTENT FACTOR IN PREVENTING A SERIOUS SETBACK
THE SMALL BANKS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY, AND ESTE
clALLY IN THE MIDDLE WEST, ARE PROSPEROUS, DEPOSITS ARE
INCREASING AND LOCAL DEMAND is LEssENING.
As a result the country banks have been the largest buyers of COM
mcrcial paper and thereby have SUSTAINED THE INDUSTRY
OF THE COUNTRY, which otherwise might have been exposed to
a dangerous curtailment.
