Mr.. Treat declared Secretary Cor.
telyou's acts at the time showed "far
seeing sagacity."
Already" Mr.. Treat continued,
"the skies are clearing. We find our
selves much better off in monetary re-
sources and property than in previous
panics. We have great recuperative
power behind us. There seems no good
reason why there should be a pro-
1onged depression in business. To be
sure full return to widespread pros
perity may be delayed until after the
presidential election and the readjust-
ment Of our tariff schedules. It is
reasonable to expect that legislation
in this direction should be completed
next March and confidence given to
the business world to start anew and
trade become active in all those pro-
auctions that are affected by tariff
rates. On the growing return of con-
fidence our monetary resources should
enable us in short time to resume
normal business activities.
what we need most is an imitation
of confidence more than an imitation
of currency.

show that the recession in business

Mr.. Treat discussed the shipments
of gold, said we can command gold
from foreign nations, because they
are our debtors for supplies Of cot
ton, grain and other foodstuffs.
The address closed with q discus
sion of criticisms of the national bank
system, Mr.. Treat declaring that the
misleading cry that the government
should get out of the banking business
seems to proceed almost wholly from
organizations represented by bankers
who advocate an asset currency in
stead Of bond secured currency. The
new currency law was referred to as
a long stride forward in rounding out
and perfecting the national banking
system.

New Cathedral.

Minneapolis-Wi all the solemn

Roman Catholic ceremony, the effect
of which was heightened by a crystal
clear sky, the ceremonies attendant

canopied platform this tribute to the
strength and influence of the church
was viewed by distinguished prelates
from various parts of the country and
the apostolic delegate from the Vati-

ing archbishops, bishops, monsignori
and abbots. Following the sacred rites
at the laying of the cornerstone,
multitude surged about the speakers

Guiding both those seated in the stand

The Tenors' Parts.

Probably the composers are largely
responsible for tenor worship. In YER
dis operas. with hardly an exception,
the tenor plays more important part
than the baritone or bass. and the
same is true Of other opera writer's,
Mozart's "Don Giovanni being nota-
BILE exception. Wagner wrote one
opera. "The Flying Dutchman." in
which the baritone is king. whereas in
six Of histworks the supremacy Of the
tenor is indicated by the very titles
"Rienzi." ''Tannhauser," "Lohengrin,"
Tristan und Isolde" "Siegfried."
"Parsifal." This being SO, we shall
probably continue to be subject to the
tyranny of one tenor or another. unless
it be true, as was maintained at con-
clave of French savants, that the tenor
voice is a relic Of barbarism. destined
to become extinct.-Argonaut.

The Lonely Sheep Tenders Of The CALI
fornia Sierras.
There are few lonelier lives in the
world than those lived by shepherds
m the high meadows Of the California
Sierras. All alone they follow their
sheep. seeing no one for many months
of the year but the sheep, their dogs
and perhaps an occasional-a very oc-
casional-- traveller. Probably this soil
tnde dries up the springs of speech,
for they are said to be very silent
rhen they do encounter any one.
One of these strange men Is Basque
from the Pyrenees. A lean, dark Wis.,
nged. ragged fellow, he is now and
then overtaken by some wanderer in
the mountains. Along the trail before
him his sheep feed. His mongrel collie
hangs ut his heels. He may raise his
stick In mute salutation; he may SLOUGH
by without sign. Yet this uncouth
being has one talenEhe can carve.
His amusement Is carving quaint
sheep buckles out of bone Every herd
has its bellwether about whose neck
hangs bell. The bell depends from
leather collar, and it Is the buckles OF
these collars that this old Basque shep-
herd and some of these other Sierra
shepherds make in the course Of their
lonely days. Sometimes a buckle rep
resents a summers work. for some Of
them are very elaborate. Some are In
the semblance Of saints or angels,
some have the monograms Of the sheep
owners or of the shepherds in curious
designs. All are patiently cut, bit by
bit, with the pocketknife Of the shep-
herd.-Exchange.

Eating Before Retiring and Digestion
During Slumber.
Diet has little influence ,on sleep ex-
cept In so far as it may produce dis
turbances Of digestion and through
these of the general balance Of health.
The hypnotic effects of certain foods.
such as onions, lettuce, milk, etc, are
chiefly imaginary. Even. the time Of
the last meal of the day is Of relative
~ little importance except that 1t Is
well to let this be at least two or three
hours before retiring. But even this
rule has many exceptions, as many
healthy laboring men habitually fall
asleep over their pipes directly after
supper, and children after poking the
spoon into their little eyes nod on over
the tea table, with the bread and but
ter still clutched In their chubby fists.
The processes Of digestion probably
go on more slowly during sleep, but
they are perfectly carried out, as is L.
lnstrated by the almost invariable hab-
1t among animals of going to sleep
directly after meal.
Indeed, moderate amount Of food
In the stomach or intestines seems to
promote slumber. Many night workers,
for instance. sleep much better for tax
ing light or even full supper just be-
fore retiring.-Dr Woods Hutchinson

1t takes all kinds Of people to make
