The Young Mother and the Fat Hol

One time little mother, who was

tired feeling came. Her three lit

She never had noticed these appeals
until the tired feeling came The
little mother also had red spots on
her cheeks and a slight dry cough
One day, when dragging herself
around, forcing her weary body to
work, she felt a sharp but slight pain
in her chest, her head grew dizzy
and suddenly her mouth filled with
blood The hemorrhage was not
severe but it left her very weak
The doctor she had consulted for her
cough and tired feeling prescribed
bitters made Of alcohol, water and
gentian. This gave her false strength

The principal of fashionable New

charity, mercy, unselfishness and sym

calls herself a socialist. If that be So
cialisnl, let us make the most of it.
An important part of the injustice
and Wretchedness of the earth is due
to the absence in government and So
ciety of these qualities. They have
been, upheld by religion for more than
1900 years. Before that time they were
inculcated by prophets, poets and phi
losophers. Almost every human heart
responds to them. Almost every hu-
man heart occasionally shuts them
out.
Here is n paradox of socialism: 1t
grows largely because so far as most
of lis advocates are concerned it is
made TO enbl ace the hunanities. II

The Roar of china,s Ducks.

Tourists in China are always sur
prised by the number of ducks they
see. There are more ducks in China
than in all the rest of the world.
Their voices are familiar sound in
every town and country spot of the
seacoast and the interior of the vast
empire. Even in the large cities ducks
abound. They dodge between the cool
les legs. They fit squawking out Of
the way of the horses. Their indig
nant quack will not unseldom drown
the roar of urban commerce. Children
herd ducks on every road, on every
pond, on every farm, on every lake, on
every river. There is no back yard
without it's duck house. There is no
boat. little or great, without its duck
quarters. All over the land there are
great duck Matching establishments,
many of them of capacity huge
enough to produce 10000 young ducks
every year. Duck among the Chinese
is a staple delicacy. 1t is salted and
smoked like ham or beef.-New York

His Favorite oniats.

Cshers in theaters handle some Pc
culiar people during season, but the
experience of the employee of Chest
nut street play house was puzzle for
some time. A well dressed, middle
aged man would secure an end seat in
the front row almost every evening.
He would tell the usher if he fell
asleep he was not to be disturbed un-
til after the show. No sooner would
the orchestra play the overture than
the ushers would notice that the man
was asleep. At the close of the nights
entertainment some one would rouse
the sleeper and he would leave with a
polite acknowledgment. One night he
explained his strange behavior:
Il suffer from insomnia" he said.
'sThe only relief I get is when I sit
close to the drummer in an orchestra.
There is something in the rhythmic
beating of the drum that soothes me
to sleep" Times.

A Chinese Hero.

At Looping Hsien is statue draped
In full dress of a mandarin (the pu
ting or police master) named Chin,
who gave his life for the people. An
exile who was in the camp at Jao-
chow and who owed the hsien district
magistrate) a grudge, rode black
horse to Looping and, having killed the
hsien, got back for the Jaochow roll
call next morning. AS the murderer
could not be found orders came from
the capital that a large number Of the
people should be killed. To prevent
this slaughter of innocent folk the pu
ting, a good old man, said he stabbed
the hsien after a few words over the
wine cups, and he was consequently
beheaded. No resident of the district
would deal the fatal blow, but an itin-
Grant cobbler or bamboo worker did 1t
for a reward of 40 taels. Tradition
adds that he was struck dead by light
ming after leaving the execution ground.

puch of the democratic state commit
tee, are working on more detailed es-
Inmates of the vote for the whole state,
which they expect to make public to-
morrow. In previous statements, given
out before receiving reports from all
the state. leaders, Mr.. Prentice esti-
mated the republican plurality at from
10000 to 10000, and Mr.. Huppuch
talked of a democratic plurality of
about 100000.
Position Of the Wall Paper Men.
New York, Nov. chairman Hup-
puch of the democratic state commit
tee tonight made his first public an
swer to republican charges that he
and John A. Dix, the democratic can
didate for governor. showed incon-
sistency in asking the congressional
ways and means committee to increase
the tariff on wall paper. Mr.. Huppuch
merely quoted part of the testimony
given before the ways and means
committee at the tNriff hearing by q
Mr.. Lindsay of M. H. Birge & Sons,
wall paper dealers, of Buffalo.
Mr.. LINDSAY told the committee that
many raw materials SO far as the
manufacture of wall paper was con-
cerned, bore higher rate of duty than
finished wall paper. The argument Of
the manufacturers was that the tariff
on the raw material and the finished
product should, be equalized. That,
said Mr.. Huppuch, expressed the po-
sition of the wall paper men in q nut
shell.

his name and that they should be
counted for him. At the count on
election night the moderator rejected
"A ballots. The matter was brought
before Judge Williams and a recount
ordered. On the recount several more
ballots were thrown out and $50 were
put one SIDE the counters being in
doubt as to their legality. These were
brought to Judge Williams, who de-
clared that SO were clearly Illegal, the
rejection of these ballots leaving 139
for Quintard and -152 for Toomey.
Judge Williams it is understood
was liberal in his Interpretation of
the legality of the ballots, retaining
many where the cross was not exactly
in the circle opposite the candidates
name, taking the stand that the voter
had clearly Indicated his choice.
Deadlock Now in the Council.
The situation arising in Norwalk by
the declaration of Quintard's election
is a peculiar one. The common coun-
ell now stands three democrats and
three republicans. On October /. Lee
mon Brundage was elected democratic
mayor of the city, but died before he
qualified, leaving the city without
mayor The division of the council
makes a deadlock and with each par
ty voting together all the appointive
offices of the city and the naming of
the mayor will probably be held UP.

loans by false entries in sthe bank S
books. Barker was placed under $4,000
bonds, which were furnished for his
appearance in the United States dis
trict court.
Loans Amount to About $4,000.
The alleged false entries of the loans
amounting to between SIG, 600 and ST.
900 were discovered by Bank Examiner
Joseph Balch on October IA. The mat
ter was placed before the bank direc-
tors, who demanded Barker's resigna-
ton. The bank officers stated to the
federal authorities that they did not
wish to prosecute Barker because of
his long connection with the institu-
ton. but the authorities pursued their
usual course and caused the cashiers
arrest.
Loaned the Money to Patron Of the
Bank.
Barker said tonight that he had
loaned the money to a patron of the
bank to keep him out of financial diff
ficulties and that personally he had not
profted by the transactions and ex-
pected that the loans would be repaid.
The contractor to whom the loans
were made stated that he supposed
they were made in q regular manner
as other loans to him had been and
that he would repay them.

New York, Nov. 4-There was a
meeting of the republican New York
county leaders today and after it aa-
.journed County Chairman Griscom an
nounced his estimate of what the vote
here would be in the coming staAe
election. MIR. Griscom believes THAI
the plurality of John A. Dix, the dem
orratic candidate for governor, in New
York county, will not +. more than
10000. Although Mr.. Griscon1's polit-
icaI jurisdiction does not ebbrace all
of: the greater city. he said that,
roughly speaking, he thought Dix's
plurality in the five boroughs would
not be over 10000, giving him the
most liberal figures.
Up State Vote for Stimson.
In 1908 New York county gave
Chanler. the democratic can6iSate for
governor, plurality of 1924, and
the democrats carried the greater city
by 59.904. Republican leaders declare
that, the vote upstate. will be. enough
to elect Stimson. as it did Hughes in
1908. Mr.. Griscom added that, con-
sidering the marked decrease in reg
istration and the consequent falling
off in the total vote. the republicans
would be satisfied if they kept the
democratic plurality in New y ork city
to the figures of two years ago.

-Harvard's Student counei,

For year or two the organiza ton,
despite the collapse of undergraduate
enthusiasm, continued to take itself
with becoming seriousness, it held
meetings at intervals, and at times
even yentured through the columns of
The Crimson to proclaim anew some
of the old collegiate moralities. But
its spasms of activity grew weaker
and this autumn it was found iinpos-
sIble to secure the quorum necessary
to perpetuate its own existence. Nei-
rhef the Ierhargy nor the demise Of
the council seems 10 have worried the
general body of undergra duates 10 any
important degree. Perhaps they hsx (
forgotten that the council embodied at
its inception the students end Fof a
fair bargain. Is the issue eonfas-
sion that the undergraduates are not

be placed upon them? If not. then
