People who like can money and who
appreciate that thu cost of replacing old
bills with new ones is so large as TO
seem over hurdensome when the bills
are not abraded, will be interested in the
announcement that the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing at Washington is
in possession of the formula of a chem
zeal solution which destroys the bacteria
that accumulate on bank notes and
makes the bills look like new, except
that they are not SO crisp as new bills.
1t would be good policy for the Depart
ment, now that it possesses this easy
method, to adopt the plan of cleansing
all bills which come in before passing
them out TO the public.

STOPPED BUYING DIAMONDS AND LAcEs

Now that 1t is definitely known that
the imports of 1908 fell S07 million
dollars below those of 1907 and that the
exports Of 1905, fell ITO millions below
hose Of l907,s:some details as to the
articles in which this failing off occurs
may be interesting
Taking up imports. the first class Of
articles In which the largest proper
tionate falling off occurs is diamonds
and other precious stones, of which
the value fsthe, imports, speaking in
round terms In the eleven months end
ing November, 1905. was but IL million
dollars against 50 millions in the same
months of 1907 and 80 millions in the
same months Of 1905. Cotton manu-
features show a fall from u millions in,
the eleven months ending with Novem-
Der, 1907, to so millions in the corres-
pending months of 1908: one of the
most important items of this class be-
ing laces, edgings, and embroideries,
in which the value fell from 81 mill
ions in the eleven months of 1907 to
Is millions in the corresponding months
OF 1908.
In foodstuffs imported the fall is by,
no means as great as in finished manu-
facturers' material Foodstuffs, as a
whole, show but slight decline, from
2S6 million dollars to 269 million doll
lars. Crude materials for use in manu-
featuring, however, show a large de-
cline from 4S6 millions to 319 Mullins.
Among the articles which show a
marked decline in domestic exports in
1908 are iron and steel, of which the
total exports in the eleven months end
ing with November 1908, were but 1S9
millions, against ISa millions in the
same months of the preceding year.;
meat and dairy products 1874 millions,
against 1874 millions; wood and manu-
features thereof 66 million dollars In
the eleven months of 1908, against 80
millions in the corresponding months
of the preceding year; cotton, unmanu-
featured, s67 million dollars in the
eleven months of 1908, against 1872 mill
ions in the corresponding months of
1907 Even breadstuffs, as a whole,
show decline in value exported, the
total for the eleven months ending
with November, 1908, being 179 million
dollars, against 1871 millions in the
corresponding months of the preceding
year; tho wheat alone shows an In
crease Of about IS million dollars in
the same time, while corn. shows a
decline of about % million dollars in
value.

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has been on

Starting from small beginning 1t has grown
in favor and popularity until the demand for
it often requires shipments in carload lots.
It is now ON sale at almost every drug store
and most country cross road stores in the
United States. There is no question as to
its merits; in fact, the enormous sale on It
has been brought about to q large extent BY
he personal recommendations of people who
have been cured by it. When you use q

THE BUSINESS MANS ou1cRY.

In Des Moines newspaper two more
or less prominent business men take, a
fall out Of the stenographers. Each
employs ten stenographers, or says he
does, which for the present purpose is
all that is necessary. These men are
having trouble finding the class of
stenographers they desire. They fail to
spell, some Of them get their own notes
mixed, altogether there is trouble and
the stenographer takes the blame as
she usually must. Other business men
in Des Moines find similar trouble. The
call is for competent stenographers.
This business mems symposium

should have her chance Until we know
somewhat about how much the bust

it viii be impossible to know whether
he is getting all he pays for or is try
ing to get more than he is willing to
pay for. The fact is that in this
country men can usually get what they
want IL they are willing to pay the
price. But they find it hard to buy dia-
monds for the price of glass or to hire
ten competent stenographers at a
range Of wages between SO and 81 a
week.
The fact is that no work is worse
underpaid than that of the stem

BLANk...A CHARITY CASE.

Blank is "on the town" He has a
family. They live largely on what
public and private charity provides.
Blank himself is strong and In good
health. He ought to work when he
can find work to do. But he doesn't.
Blank refuses to cut ice because it
is cold work. He lodges certain other
forms of labor because 1t is too far
away to walk to of a morning and
walk home from at night. The i'm
preston to be gained is that Blank is
little too fastidious; especially when
he makes regular requisition on the
public charities and welcomes what
ever 1.-THE neighbors" and charitably
inclined persons generally bring in.''
But what are we to do with Blank?
The children and the invalid wife must
be cared for. and Blank Is the key
stone of the family arch. There ought
to be some way whereby society can
get at Blank, provide suitable work for
him. and see that he does it; for he is
able, properly placed and properly sit
uated, to earn living for the family.
AS it Is, his opportunities as well as
his .inclinations are limited. Certain
physical restrictions, deny him some
forms Of employment. and he has
grown to consider charity his right.
Blank needs shaking up hard. But. un-
der present conditions when you shake
him you shake a family apart.
The greatest charity that could be
created would be to provide work for
such men and force them to their
daily task If the state or the county
might furnish employment and the law
stand over them while they earned the
bread of their family by the sweat Of
their brow. great reform would be
well under way.
