Drusxi.t. and Borrowing.

DruEEfsts and BoFrOwfng.
 New York druggists are frequent bor- rowers. Only the most complete phar- macies are constantly supplied with all the drugs required in compromising medicines. When a druggist is asked to fill short notice prescription calling for some drug that he does not happen to have on hand, he does not take time to telephone to a wholesale house for the missing ingredient. but sends around to the nearest drug store and tries to borrow it. 1t is a peculiar fea- ture of the situation that druggists sell dom buy anything outright from each other. They merely borrow. then. after having replenished their stock from the wholesale houses they pay back the loan.-New York Post.

Tact and Policy.

A high fence should be built between the words tact and policy for the bene- fit of those who cannot see the border ing line.
 ''Oh. have no tactr' they say with . satisfied air. ''Tact and policy are things know nothing about"
 And yet the two qualities are as dis tinct as north and south. Tact comes from the heart. and policy from the head. Policy is inspired by selfish inter ests and is a treacherous quality that one might well boast the lack of. Tact springs within from an unwfllingness to hurt feelings. and it is the mark of innate kindness that has no personal motive. Tact is no enemy to truth It offers truth on a salver instead of throwing it in the face, that's a1.-Phil- adelphia Press.

HARRY BURKE WINS
 FROM BILLY YALE
(By Dick Barrett.)

Harry Burke. the boy wonder on rollers, defeated Billy Yale of West Haven last night at the Homestead rink in West Haven, by three-quarters of a lap. Wise Harry knew he had the race easy, so he let Yale get the lead and he kept plugging along on a slow speed. The race was not done iE very quick time, but quick enough to come home with victory. Harry was right behind Yale until the second mile and his manager gave him the signal to let out, and it didn't take Harry long to get by Yale and start his sprinting. Yale is a good skater without a doubt, but there are bet ter when it comes down to talking business about the Bridgeport boys. Yale has been trimming all the young sters in New Haven and West Haven and a few more little towns. but last night he was up against it and he was beaten by a good man when he was defeated by Burke. Yale and Marty King will race Harry Burke and Dick. Barrett in this city in a short time

which benzoate of soda is used, no mat ter how, why, or in what amount! This will make assurance doubly sure.
 We have said before, and we say it again, the public is with Dr. Wiley, heart and soul, in his pure food fight with him because he is waging his warfare in behalf of the consumer against the unworthy manufacturers. Champions of the consumer are few and far between in this country, more's the pity; and it is no wonder "Old Borax" had the crowd with him, despite the stumbling blocks and the embarrass- ments thrown in his way.
 The fight for absolutely pure food in this country has not ended yet, and it will not end short of complete victory. Like the fight for civic purity, it is destined to be. long one and bitterly contested by the embattled hosts of greed and hypocrisy. But it will win out ultimately; never fear for that!

the Treasury, where runs broad Penn sylyania avenue, is especially grand on occasions of parade, such as are in cident to the inauguration of presiI dent. Festooned and illuminated on the scale that it was for this years in- augural event, the scene by day and night, with its martial animation, will be one ever to be remembered by the visitor.
 The hundreds of thousands of visitors who were there to assist in giving life and color to the Taft inauguration, how ever, owe it to themselves as American citizens to study their Capital city aside from it's temporary decorations. It is peculiarly the city of the nation, and it should be the pride of every cit izen that it is what it is today, and the hope of every one that it's development on aesthetic lines will go forward until the fullest realization of the Capital beautiful is obtained.
 Those who have been in Washington at previous inaugurations or on other occasions will notice many public i'm provements that have taken place with in the last few years. The new senate and house office buildings, forming a majestic group with the Capitol, the massive new Union railroad station nearby, and the white marble munici- pal building uptown, facing Pennsyl- vania avenue ahe among the improve ments carried out since the last time . president was inaugurated. Four years hence the scheme of Identification will have developed still more, and in course of time, under the stimulation of a national sentiment, there will be noth- ing left to offend, and everything to inspire pleasing interest of proprietor ship on the part of the visitor.
 Not only in public buildings, but in costly private homes, the city has de veloped at wonderful rate. These public and private buildings, with the miles of asphalt streets, cleanly swept, and the broad avenues, running -diag- onally and intersecting at "circles," !" each of which has, or will have, some statute to the memory of national hero, form an object lesson in civic beauty that will afford profitable study for all

Unique Attempt to Remove Mayor of
 California City

Los Angeles dispatch in Chicago Record. Herald.
 Los Angeles on March 26 will hold the first recall election ever held for mayor in the history of the recall movement in the west, if not in the entire coun- try. Twenty thousand voters have signed the recall petition, demanding that Mayor Arthur c. Harper be re- moved from office, and perforcc the city council has passed an ordinance calling for election, and Mayor Harper, also perforce, has signed the ordinance.
 Harper is democrat, and slipped into office at the last election because of split in the republican forces. Los Angeles is normally strong republi- can city, but the reform element broke away from the regular republicans and organized separate campaign, and the breach is not yet healed.
 A committee of fifteen, after offer ing the mayoralty candidacy to several business men who refused to make the campaign, has settled upon former Sup ervisor George Alexander, a republican of unquestioned integrity and upright ness, but declared by his enemies to be too old and indecisive for the office. These arc the only arguments used against him in the campaign so faf, but there is strong feeling against the re- call movement.
 The recall election is the result of fervid campaign against Harper under the banner of civic purity. With the slogan, ''Is v.ce protected in Los Ange- les?'' the opposition papers were full of alleged violations of law by the may or and his appointees, especially certain members of the police commission. The campaign led to a grand jury investi- gation, and although no indictments were returned against any city official, the final report grilled the mayor and three of the police commissioners for having visited certain resorts and hay ing sold large blocks of stock in vari- ous enterprises in which they were in- terested to saloonkeepers and owners of the various dives.
 The minority members of the grand jury returned much more scathing ar- raignment of the city officials but the court refused to accept the report of the minority, so it was given fuller pub licity by the opposition press.
