but saw that had to act quickly and
decided to let the house go and try to
save the factory. I took the little in
surance money left me and started right
in. At the time my husband died he
had just been given the contract to
make thirty-five sprinkling wagons for
the city, and, with positively no knowl-
edge at all of such things, l had to see
that it was fulfilled.
well, l don't know just how I man
aged to do it, but [ did, and now I keen
about fifteen men working for me. We
have the contracts from all the express
companies, and in the spring have al
most more than we can do.
This experience has shown me one
great thing a man should do, however,
and that is that he never should keen
his affairs from his wife Although at
the time he thinks he is being thought
full by keeping his business affairs from
her, he is in reality doing the worst
thing he could possibly do for if some
thing should happen and his wife was
left as 1 was, she would not know what
to do. Woman was made to be a COM
panion to man, and he should consider
her as such, and not as q child"

INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION


There is room for a school of inter
national education. Let the youth Of
the dark countries, such as Russia,
be sent to the enlightened ones for
time, and then let them return home to
use their knowledge. A writer in the
Independent illustrates this principal
under the caption, Liberty to Keep the
Laws"
Here is a place where you can't CO.
anyway"
But 1 do not want to go there, so
am in no danger Of the penalty"
The first speaker was a Russian lad,
who was surprised that the Capitol, the
White House, public buildings of all
kinds in Washington, were open to the
world, without even the formality Of
asking permission. The second speaker
was the American friend who was
showing him round the city, and the
forbidden spot which they at last had
reached was the grass in park, with
the sign, "Trespass forbidden, under
penalty Of the law"
But your President can go there"
ooh, no." was the reply. He would
not want to walk there and spoil the
grass, and he would not break the law,
anyway"
What" said the boy. "Does your
President have to obey the law?" He
gasped in surprise at such thought.
by all means" replied his cicerone
''The President must obey the laws, Of
course"
"He mustT' cried the boy. 'That is
queer. Our Gar and grand dukes never
have to obey the law"
At the close of the day the lad was
taken into the Congressional Library.
where scores of men were bending over
magazines under pleasant evening lights
He caught the arm Of his friend as
though he saw a ghost "See, a SOL
der a soldier and he has no gun !,
and he is reading! You could not see
that in my country"

MAP SHOWING BANK ROBBER1Es FOR THE PAST YEAR

brings out one of the curious facts in
connection with the bank robberies.
They were all committed in small
towns, even the names of which are
unfamiliar to the average American.
No city of any size figures in the rec
ordS.
Big bank robberies in cities are a
thing Of the past" remarked a detect
i've, referring to these figures. "For one
thing, the banks in the great cities have
more money at stake. They must make
their vaults impregnable. A bank in
New York, Philadelphia or Chicago, for
instance, did not keep more than $780,
600 in cash and securities in its vaults
ten or fifteen years ago. Now the great
banks frequently carry from $5,OOO,OOO
to S1O,OOO,OO0 With such sums, no
walls can be too thick, no vaults too
strong.
With the exception Of $1,226 taken
from a bank in TruXtOn, n. Y, on Dec.
30 last, none of the burglaries was COM
mitted east Of the Allegheny Mountains.
None OIL lUe lcu lODpSIlCS III
banks occurred nearer New York than
Granite Falls, n. c., on the south and
Clinton. Ill, to the west ward.
West Stamping Ground.
A filance at the discs on the may in
dicates the center of the burglaries. The
report shows that the largest number
Of bank burglaries in any one State was
-, in Minnesota. Then came Oklahoma,
with s, Missouri and Kansas, with 6,
and North Dakota and South Dakota,
each with 4. OF the hold-up robberies,
there were two each in Kansas and
Oklahoma, and one each III Colorado,
Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and North
Carolina. When asked why the bur
glaries and hold-ups were thus confined
to comparatively small section Of the
country the detective replied:
1.-The Middle West is a stamping
ground for thieves, because, for one
thing, the distances are so long and the
areas so vast that it is difficult for the
police and sheriffs to give effective ser
vice. twenty-five miles Of comparatively
open country between even small towns
gives the thieves many chances to es-
cape"
