From T0pics q the Day. II PrU7dsncs JouusL
We are 50 bound BY conventionaIity
that even the visible expression OF our
great griefs has TO De measured By the
set rules OF fashion. which change from
time TO time. Ike all fashions. A current
fashion note says that mourning note
paper now has black borders in FIVE
widths, running In numbers from I to %

Is thus manifested Tor the benefit OF the
world. Is not left IN a haphazard manner

emotional impulse OF the be-eaveS ones.
but the use OF the note paper IS care
fully specified for the various occasions.
A widow. II IS announced. uses no. 8

end OF q year she decreases the width

months she uses No. J.
The extreme width OF black border,

A parent who is in mourning uses No. 1
for three months. then No. 3. and al the
end of a year No. / A son or daugh-
ter in mourning for q parent uses Nc

ews, and grandchildren also start OF with

tions for first cousins. OF for those who
might have been wives, but consoIingly
and voluntarily assumed the fictitious re-
latiOnship Of sisters
There seems something peculiarly cal
lous and eold-blooded about this formal
ity Of a nOtepaper division OF GRIEF into
Eve grades and the fashionable prescrfp-
ton OF just what grade OF grief shall be
manifested for each relationship. What
ever the relationship. grief varies too
much TO be dehnabIs BY a formal system
OF measurement
Besides. the system here outlined seems
70 be radically wrong. Why should every
widow be credited with a No. 8 grief.
when a parent who has lost an only child
Is only permitted 20 indulge IN Grief No.
~ CnquestOnably there are many vvld-
owS who experience nothing deeper than
a No. I grief right az the beginning. and
occasionally there IS one who could
scarcely be suspected OF anything more
profound than a 10 per cent solution OF
No. J. On the other hand II IS quite cor
ceivable that a man might feel No. Mus
over the death OF his wife's stepmother.
There are more than a few persons in
this world who do not believe in the use
or mourning symbols. IN note paper. in
apparel, OF IN any other form Their
grief is not 70 be questioned when they
suffer bereavement, but the idea OF max
ing It an occasion for decoration seems
repugnant 20 them. But. OF course. they
are deplorably Unfashionable and their
attitude toward the conventional pro-
7rieties IS not 10 be admired
Even psychology might wei hesitate be-
fore attempting TO classify grief in avs

hesitates at nothing, and what Il can't
do with bonnets Il aCcOmpiishes very
handily with note paper.

Buying Coal Now.

The railway managers are again asking
that shipments of coal be made early so
that there may be no shortage in case of
bad weather, etc, to avoid rush later
This is good idea, but 1t is of no use to
ask the consumer to lay in store of coal
at this early date. 1t may be very de-
sirable for him to do so, even from his
own standpoint, but he slmply::won' Il: do
it unless in exceptional cases.3
The circular recently issued Ito lthe
agents by the N. P. is to dealers Iandl:it
is up to them to look after this matter,
but primarily 1t is up to the big coal
companies. The circular states that the
wholesale companies are now prepared
to fill all orders for immediate ship
ment. We do not see why those same
coal piles now on the docks at Duluth
can not be distributed by the wholesale
people among the local dealers of the
northwest at once.
Nearly all the local dealers would be
willing to accept shipments to certain
amounts now, provided they did not
have to pay until about the same time as
they would if ordered in the ordinary
way.
As it is, it looks as if the wholesale
people wanted the consumer to buy his
coal now and pay for it in the pretty
soon-which would be of obvious advan-
tage to the wholesale people, and of no
advantage to the local dealer or to the
consumer unless he is scared.
