HIGHER BUSINESS STANDARDS.


The crusade against corporations
and great wealth makes the coming
presidential campaign one Of SUI
preme Importance, The political
atmosphere 10 this respect has for
tunately already been much cleared,
Public opinion has been thoroughly
aroused, and the agitation In this re-
spect has probably seen its worst
phases. In noting these things
Henry Clews says In his latest finsn-
cial review:
II Is now settled that the great
corporations must obey the law, and
hereafter show decent regard Tor
public interest. The latter they are
beginning TO do In many cases vol
UNFAIRLY; having recognized the ne
cessity OF palliatng public opinion.
Az for the misdeeds OF so-called
high finance these are already
meeting with deserved retribution;
sometimes in courts but more FIRE,
quently through financial collapse
and public ostraeism. We have many
striking examples lately that there
are numerous evils difficult Of sup.
preston by law which disappear
". "a
quickly under the Influence Of an
aroused and sound public opinion
The latter Is power Of tremendous
force when exerted, and It is safe
TO say that many Of the deals and
transactions which were passed over
without challenge two or three years
ago would not be repeated IN the
financial district today. Compara-
lively little reform has thus far been
secured either through legislation OF
enforcing The law: yet everyone
within the precincts OF Wall street
knows that business standards there
are on a distinctly higher level thar
twelve months ago.

Dear Sir: The Trustees OF the
Fair Ground, Cobleskill, n Y, were
glad to pay 10 cents gallon more
for Deyoe; and no wonder. Two
other paint agents said 1t would take
$50 gallons of their paint to cover
the buildings.
Our agent put 1t at 1875 or less. 1t
took us.
We saved them 35 gallons of paint
and painting worth 81 to s. gall
Ion, as the painting costs two or
three times as much as the paint)
less 10 cents a gallon ON 115 gal
Ions. Say $40
'i That's how to count the cost Of
paint. The cost of putting it on is
SO or 81 gallon. You see what
that means. Go by Devoe.

Women Who Wear Well.

It is astonishing how great change q
few years of married life often make In
the appearance and disposition of many
women. The freshness, the charm, the
brilliance vanish like the bloom from a
peach which is rudely handled. The
matron Is only dim shadow, faint echo
OF the charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect. Few young women appreciate
the shock to the system through the
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
nesses which too often come with mar
rage and motherhood, not understanding
that this secret drain is robbing the cheek
of its freshness and the form of its
fairness.
