But Mrs Tom was determined to
emancipate" her husband
So. taking matters in her own hands,
while he was at the Office one day, she
wrote tie manufacturers for their book.
"A Bet er Days Work telling them to
send it to Toms firm.
Well, the book came addressed to the
company-and went to the Boss's desk.
1t wasn't catalog-but business book
so unusual, SO full of new and shortcut
ways of doing things, that it set the gen.
tleman thinking
And the free, fair trial, which put it up
to the machine to make good, appealed
to the business-sense of the Boss.
So he wrote the Burroughs people, ask
ing for Trial"
And the Burroughs is now a priced
assistant in that office-at work every
day
Tom and 1.-The boys" are never behind
with their work-they get their state
ments and balances and reports out right
on time-and always right
No more night work in that Office.
And the boys come to work each morn
ing rested and refreshed-alert to accom-
plish things. They are more useful to the
company.
And, by saving three-fourths of the
time formerly required for the first addi-
ton, and all the time formerly spent in
going ouer the figures for verifcation and
in search of elusive errors. and by elimi-
mating costly delays and mistakes, that

Robert Hunters Comment

THERE is much misconception regarding the
large part that the exceedingly wealthy
women of New York (no doubt, the same facts
are true of other cities) play in the moral upift
of the struggling masses" he began " 1t IS not
uncommon to find the wives or daughters of
multimillionaires in houses of the very poor, on
the East Side especially ministering to the sick
or arranging for the transfer of suffering man
or woman to hospital in which they will pro-
vide a private room and special attention
Only the other day. one OF our workers accl-
dentay encountered young woman OF inde-
pendent fortune. her costly dress tucked bout
her waist making broth over an oilstove for
consumptive woman in tenement house on
Rivington-st The poor invalid was past
moving and the girl, worth several millions in
her own right, was doing her best to cheer
heartbroken and dying member of her sex
Beautiful, glorious acts like hers are occur
ring every day, in the various poverty cursed
sections of this city. Young women booked
for every dance at the Bachelors or the most
fashionable private ball of the season on the
avenue, likely as not have appointments to read
to patients in incurable wards of hospitals at
nine o'clock next morning. And, remember
they keep their engagements That IS what
sociological work is doing for charity. Society
is all right. even when it is regarded as di-
version and not the sole object of existence"
Mr. Hunte. strikes the true chord in his last
phrase The opinion he so admirably expresses
has been held by many noble women whose
prominence in the social world has caused them
to appear very different people from what they
really are Only the other day Mrs William
kissam Vanderbilt gave her last Christmas
present of one million dollars-a mere bauble
to her husband. because it represented only a
small fraction of his annual income-to erect
model homes for tuberculous sufferers among
the poor This proves that old fashioned sym
pathy of the tenderest sort exists among
fashionable women whose only thoughts are
popularity supposed to be centered on dress and
social rivalry
The organizer of the Junior Cotion, one of
the most exclusive and smartest of the sub
scripton dances of every season among the
has established day nurseries in many parts of
New York, at which the children of working
mothers are cared for while their parents are
keeping the wolf away" This charming

A REPORT NEEDED.

Whether the 100000 fund

control Of the Chief Executive or the
Secretary Of War. IL would seem 20
be the duty OF somebody 60 make a
report with respect TO il. This APP
preparation being for the War Depart
ment. the report should have been
made by the Secretary of War. and
he is not relieved of that duty by the
fact that the money can be expended
only with the approval OF the Pres

detailed or itemized reports TO Con-
gress of expenditures from this fund

Senator Foraker continued:
They wrote letters TO Boyd Con-

his comrades were "peaching." and
that If he would escape arrest and
eXtradition 20 Texas, from where he
would probably never return to his
young wife and family. he too must
make a statement falsely accusing
his absent comrades. and then, when
he refused to comply, asserting his

NOTHING MORE ATRoc1oUs.

In ali the history OF crime and It's
detection nothing more atrocious,
disreputable and disgraceful has ev-
er been recorded.
1t seems a waste of time to cite
cases in support of dispositions so
elementary as that confessions in
volving criminal guilt are never per-
mitted in any court, unless II can be
shown that they were given volup-
tarily, without inducement or hope
OF reward or promise of immunity.
or without any duress, or without
any suggestion OF benefit Of any kind
or nature whatsoever 10 the party

law was we'll known 10 the detec-
tive, Herbert J. Browne, who made

by the President, for in IL he takes
care to say that mo promises of i'm
munity were made" This statement

all the rest of his wicked fabrica-
lions In the presence OF the estab-
lished facts.

A PECULIAR SITUATION.

What is the ground upon which Il
is held 90 be such a contingency
The contingency was the exceedingly
remote one that a pending bill, pro-
viding that men should be required
90 prove their innocence OF a crime
before judge who had already pro-
nounced them guilty. should be IA
vorably acted upon by the Congress
Of the United States. And all this
I'M the presence OF the fact that there
was the most bitter and determined
opposition TO the measure and that
there was another measure pending

enlisted vino cared 20 recnlist. but
that the right TO further prosecute

should be reserved as 90 all against
whom any evidence might be secured

such enactment.
But waving am technical or doubt

sake OF argument that tho constitu-
tional provision quoted does not APP

that it continues 20 stand. and viii

A WORD ABOUT THAT APPRO.

This appropriation is found und er
the general subhead "War Depart

head of Military establishment
Contingencies Of the Army" There
fore il was clearly an appropriation
made by Congress under its consti-
tutional power TO support" the army
and not under or by virtue of any
other power whatever.
II will probably be surprising in
formation TO the Appropriations Com

that this appropriation, made ten
years ago at the close OF the Spanish
American War 10 enable the Presi-
dent TO meet emergency ARM eontin
gencies such as were then arising in
connection with our military estab-
lishment, should have been construed
TO be a permanent appropriation.
and that there is still a large unex-
pended balance out OF which pay
ments of the character now under
consideration are being made.
Especially so in view OF the fact
that the Constitution of the United
States provides in the enumeration
OF the powers OF Congress that il
shall have power "to raise and sup
port armies, but 10 appropriation OF
money TO that use shall be for a
longer term than two years" Under
