When All Else Is Forgotten, Thoss
Llnesr In the Memory.

You can't forget, no matter how
hard you may try, for your old home.
the one you FIRST knew, is so deeply
impressed upon your mind that all thel
glories, the riches and the blandish-
ments Of modern times cannot blot the
picture out, and in spite of all you gol
back to Il by the memory route, and
linger there often, and more often as
the years gather around you.
That is why you like to read Of the
old days, even though you would not
have them return.
Do you ever tell your children about
your old home, and Of your visits to
granddaddy's. your tours of explora~
ton through old attics infested with
wssp's nests, and hanging with dried
herbs, seed corn. sickles and one truck
and another?
And, maybe, some time you may
have slept in an attic under a clap
board roof through which you could
see the stars, and through which sifted
fine snow whom the wind was strong.
Nor were you cold, for the homemade
blankets and the quilts the girls had
pieced, and the coverlets that grand
mother had woven were warm on top,
while the thick straw tick, and the
sufa feather tick formed a nest that
would be warm and comfy" any
where.
You would hardly regard these a. es-
Sential to your comfort In your new
house, but they were real blessings
then, and are blessed to recall and talk
about now.

THREE ITEMS OF TARIFF BILL
ARE AGREED UPON AS DE-
SIRED BY ALDRIcH.
DUTY ON LEAD REDUCED 1-SG.
Ten Republicans Vote With Democrats
on Curtis Amendment and 5orah
Voted With Republicans
Tariffs Withdrawn.

Washington, May 21.-The senate
distributed its attention among the
three items in the tariff bill provid-
ing a duty on an extract of chestnut
bark used in tanning, known as
quebrancho, on cottonseed oil and on
white lead. On each of these articles,
the senate was led by the committee
on finance, although the committee
was induced to change its original
suggestions on both white lead and
cotton seed oil
The lead duty is fixed by the commit
tee was originally 2 7-S cents per
pound. but Mr.. Curtis, who is mem
Der of the committee suggested re-
duction Of 1-Sc a pound, bringing the
figure down 2 "a cents and Chairman
Aldrich accepted the reduction. Even
this increase over the house provision
excited sharp criticism especially
from Mr.. Curtis colleague, Mr.. Bris-
tow. who contended that the duty
would prove to be a direct tax on the
consumers.
When the vote was taken, the COM
mittee obtained it's usual triumph, the
vote standing Al to 80 in favor OF the
Curtis amendment.
AS usual Senators Beverage, Bris-
tow. Brown, Burkett, Clapp, Cummins,
Dolliver, Gamble, La Toilette and Mel
son voted with the Democrats. Senator
Borah voted with the Republicans.
Probably the most interesting con-
test of the day was that over the
question as to whether there should
be any duty on cottonseed oil.
Senators Tillman, Bacon and Money
made an intense fight against the
senate provision fixing tariff Of three
cents a gallon, on the ground that it
would injure the sale of cottonseed and
after the controversy had gone on for
some time, Mr.. Aldrich withdrew the
provision.
Mr.. LaFollette sought to reduce the
duty on buebracho to one quarter OF
one cent a pound, but his amendment
to that effect was rejected 20 to 3S.
Mr.. Daniel led the fight for higher
rate. axciting much interest because
of his advocacy of low duties in the
past. The committee had reduced the
house rate and the Virginia senator
in whose state are several quebracho
factories sought to have that figure
restored. He did not succeed and the
duty was fixed at half a cent per
pound instead of 7-S cent as he pro
posed.

DRAWING THE COLOR LINE
New York Justice Holds Negro and
White Man DO Not Suffer Equal
Humiliation.

New York, May pa negro and a
white man do not suffer equal hnmili-
aion in the eyes of law for false ar
rest. according to the, appellate diVi-
sion of the supreme court, which sus-
tanned an order Of Justice Dugro, re-
ducing the amount of damages award
ed George Griffin, a Pullman porter
from $500 to $500. The negro was
arrested in Montreal charged with
stealing a pocketbook, but the charge
was not substantiated He brought
suit against Daniel H. Brady, new
York manufacturer, who caused his
arrest.
yin his order, Justice Dugro said:
while in. some senses the negro
under the law is just as good a man
as the president of the United States
II would be argument to say he is just
as good in some respects The dam
ages in case of this kind depend on
