"She came into my house one even

her: Blanche, for heavens sake, what

Matter enough she answered, as

From Plutarch.

Neither rich furniture nor abun-
dance of gold, nor a descent from an
illustrious family, nor greatness of

charms of speaking, can produce SO
great a serenity of life as mind free
from guilt, kept untainted, not only
from actions, but purposes that are
wicked.-Plutarch.

Hope to Make Faster Progress
on Tariff Bill

Washington, July 12.-All of the
conferees on the tariff bill were pres
ent for the first of the many sessions
that must be held to harmonic the
differences between the house and the
senate. Before proceeding with the
bill a motion was adopted admitting
to the conferences the clerks of the
house and senate committees which
framed the measure originally. It Is
customary in conferences relating to
tariff legislation to take up first the
amendments of a character not likely
to provoke serious conflict, out this
procedure has been varied. It was
agreed that many of the more impor-
tant provisions should be submitted
to sub-conferees and other subjects
will go to members of the committees
on ways and means and finance who
were not named as conferees. Assist
ance will also be given the conferees
by members of the senate and house
who had no official part in framing
the bills in committees. 49,.
Of course, where important work
has been apportioned in the manner
suggested, it will be necessary for the
entire conference committee to ap-
prove the findings Of the sub-confer-
ees. Following the plan of dividing
the work the conferees were able to
plunge Immediately into the consid-

really q contest of manufacturers.
They compete this year for three
trophies-the Glidden for touring cars,
the Hover, for runabouts and road
sters and the Detroit for the minia-
ture tonneau type Of car. In addition
there are few noncontestant partici-
pants and the two official cars. An

t1on or running of the car is noted

everywhere on account of his gift of song
and merry disposition. While the char
