THE PORTRAIT CEN r

| It is not necessary to despair of the republic because of portrait, artistically wrought upon a coin, of the president whose title of martyr
 dom was that of it's savior. Nor should pro- test ftIy find origin in the south, where the name of Lincoln is now held in reverence as patriotic as is that of Washington It is not probable that the alarm of the New Orleans Picayune will find much echo in either direction from the Potomac and the Ohio Yet that es- teemed but momentariIy nervous journal finds lin the design of the new cent what 1t IS moved to term ''the first visible and outward emblem of the transmogrifcation of the republic into the empire" Nor does its prediction seem warranted just because the design of coin had it's origin during the administration of Mr. Roosevelt that the day is coming when "a champion, red with the blood of lions and crown ed with the trophies of hundred victories over the savage beasts of equatorial Africa, shall re- turn to find the American people impatient for the coming of a laundering political love who shall compel everybody to submit to his de- crees."
 The breezes of the Gulf should bring coolness to the latitude of New Orleans. The figures of mythological gods and goddesses long ago ap- peared upon coins of Greece and Rome, but their civilizations survived that adornment. Nor is our debt for the portraits of ancient rulers lessened in historic value by their ap- pearance upon coins. It is rule that only DOT traits of statesmen who have departed this life shall appear upon out paper currency; but this popular honor to the great dead has not i'm paired our political institutions. The Goddess of Liberty is made in her minted image after the model of human being, but that more or less anonymous person has not been moved to found an aristocracy. Let agitation near Lake Ponchartrain be calmed, and may the new coins in growing numbers continue to irradiate the counting room of this superheated contempor- ary that itself flies the name of monarchial coin as it's esteemed title.

How London Keeps Clean.

London celebrates this year the if. tieth anniversary of the adoption of it's sewerage system. This plan was the construction of intercepting sew CTS at each side of the river and run ming along its shores, into which in stead of the river the drains of the city should pour their contents. Since this time other such sewers have been con. strueted parallel with the first or con verging upon them. Thus the vast bulk of the sewage is kept out of the river until it has been subjected to chemical treatment and thus rendered compara. lively innocuous and inoffensive. The shndge which results from the process of precipitation, amounting to about S,200 tons day, is carried far out into the estuary of the Thames, and there it is dumped into the great hole which is known as the Black Deep. In such fashion does London dispose of nearly 300, ,000, 900 gallons of sewage daily, and in time of heavy rains, more than a billion gallons.

EFFECTS OF. THE MAD
 MANIA

Does the national tendency toward commer- cialism threaten the esthetic future of the coun- try! How shall we overcome the frivolous and superficial tendencies of the times!
 People who are bringing up families and those who are engaged in the work of teaching the rising generation are everywhere complain ing that the money madness of the fathers is beginning to have it's effect upon the children. The man who is occupied heart and soul with the idea of furthering his financial standing and the building up of his commercial interests finds little time for improving his mind along the lines of literature, music, and the arts. It is not wonderful, therefore, that he should transmit to his progeny lack of taste for the beautiful and the classical
 | Take the matter of reading for instance. Where is the young boy or girl of today who will pore over the works of Dickens or Scott or IThackeray or George Eliot? The boys, espe- cially, exhibit but little patience when the desir- ability of fundamental knowledge of the classics of literature is urged upon them. The thoughtful parents, conscious that the rapid fire, helter-skelter fiction of the day, which ap- pears in all the magazines and popular IT, braries, has no good and often harmful effect upon the forming of the child's mind, can only submit to condition that is now becoming to be recognized as an inherent national tendency
 The boy or girl of yesterday who took delight in '.Ivanhoe" and David Copperfied" has apparently given place to generation which, if it reads at all, devours sensational modern fic- ton, which is either downright immoral or so vapid and colorless to be unworthy of men ton in the same breath with those earlier works full of exquisite descriptions and powerful character painting. With one or two eXcep- tions- and the exceptions are rare as to be almost isolated-the modern novelist is for action first action second, and action all the time. The creation of atmosphere and real characters is waning art it would seem among them
 While it is entirely undesirable that we should become nation of bookworms or pedants, it is nevertheless true that the person who, in order to keep pace with the catapult existence of today, sees fit to neglect the class ics of literature is not only robbing himself of a great deal of pleasure, but is overlooking a means of brain cultivation which will give him larger perspective and more intimate knowledge of human nature.

War Against Typhoid

It was reported to a recent meeting of the Massachusetts board of health that fifty nurses in the General Hos pital of that state had been inoculated against typhoid fever. The surgeons in the Marine hospital in Boston had been requested to inoculate the men on ships against the disease The opera tion does not prevent the men from working, as the quantity of serum used is less than in the British army, where it puts the patient to bed. In the Eng fish and German armies the men are inoeulated twice within five days, the effect lasting from two to three years. It is believed that in time many cpl demic diseases will be restricted by in- oculation. It is such investigations that show that the doctors are awake to the importance of their science wherever many are gathered together in peace or for war.

Old College Regulations

Those who criticise college amuse- ments of today may find comparative comfort in look not far backward. In chronicle of the early days of Miami university, in Ohio, now century old. it is related that the drastic rule pro vided, "No student shall wear about his person pistol, dirk, stietto, or other dangerous weapon. Another rule ran, Amy student who shall send or ac- cept a challenge, or be second in a duel, or in any wise aids and abets it shall be immediately expelled from college. In other rules the Miami seeker for knowledge was prohibited from playing games of chance or hay
 ing cards or backgammon boards in his possession. The student was also directed not to attend any ball, dancing school, theatrical exhibition, horse race or any similar place of resort. The football youth of today will bear com. parison with his armed, uel-fghting, horse racing, and gambling antecedent.

Regulating Chaufeurs

The problem of the reckless chauf- feur is as distressing to the owners of automobiles as to those who walk in urban highways. Ii is the president of the Camden Motor club, in New Jer- sey, who suggests that Bertillon meas urements and photographs be taken of chauffeurs proved to be careless of life and safety. He points out that after serious or fatal accidents, these drivers disappear and soon find employ ment in other localities. It IS suggest ed that the photographs of all chauf- feurs, good as well as bad be filed with municipal and state authorities. In Europe, the chauffeur is required to prove his ability to control his machine before permitting him to run it through open streets and highways. By any fair test how large percentage of the men who hold in their hands the lives of employers and their families and of the public would not thus he found incompetenta Possibly the rem edy may be found in regulating the granting of licenses.

A Surprising Alderman.

New York alderman and con. tractor George C. Morrison, distin. guishes himself from most politicians in that city by announcing that he is disgusted with politics, and that as soon as his term expires he intends to devote himself to business. It is in the nature of news to learn that the posi- tion of an alderman in the great metropolis is not one of business that has been assumed at times to be profitable. The inference is that here is a different kind of alderman. But as a contractor he may have acquired the knowledge that there are two sides to every bargain. However, he may have discovered some branch of the contracting business that does not need a subteraneous connection with the legislative branch of the municipal gov ernment.

Of Passing Interest
English Strikers Imprisoned

An act of parliament forbids work men to quit employment even for a day without due notice, which may be con strued by the employer as an intention to leave his service That accounts for this item about striking miners in Dur ham: "Thirty miners were yesterday taken to jail and were accompanied to the train by hundreds of the villagers. Later on the miners who went to jail last Friday arrived home after their Imprisonment for the same offense, and were received with enthusiasm. There are still forty miners to go to jail. ' It is expected that the question will be raised in parliament whether such Imprisonment is constitutional. Suits for damage are the remedy for other violations of contract. If poverty pre- vents their payment, then the contract cannot be enforced.
