THE GIRL WHO GADS.

The girl that gives away to the
desire to gad about the streets
and cultivate the acquaintance OF
young men, the simpering simple
ton is laying the foundation OF n
useless life Ten to one, when
she is married she will develop
into slatternly gossip. If no
greater misfortune befalls her. 1t
is the girl of good, sound hard
sense, the girl who loves home
and help her mother who wins
the model man and becomes an
ornament to womanhood. The
girl that does this and devotes a
part of her time to reading and
strives for the grace OF mental cul-
ture, commands the respect and
esteem Of everybody while gad-
ding street ornaments only win
the admiration Of those whose at
tention is not worth having

Some five hundred others wore
blue badges bearing the names OF
more than fifty different nations,
as remote as China and Sbuth
America, Turkey and Australia.
In addition to these three thou

delegates from every State and
province in the United States and
Canada and from foreign lands,
there were about seven thousand

Sometimes three and four stimuli

WASHINGTON LETTER.

w dNliI l'li. -. ~, NiH -
Even should the political complex
ION Of the 62nd Congress be- not
changed when lis members assem-
bic for the first session many old
faces will be missing from both
House and Senate because mum
erouS members now III Congress
for various reasons have declined
% be candidates for rec cctlon.
At least a score of members of the
House have already announced
that they will not seek reelection
to the next House. The reasons
they assign are as various as the
characters Of the individuals them
selves. In many instances the
acknowledged political unrest Is
the real cause.
Among those who are going to
step out at the end Of this Con
eress. are LoWden OF Illinois,
Cooper of Pennsylvania, Sparry of
Connecticut :; Reynolds Of PennsyI-
vania Dawson Of Iowa; Foss of
Massachusetts; Jameson of Iowa !;
Havens Of New York IIinshaw OF
Nebraska; and several other who
have about made up their minds
to quit but are not yet prepared
to finally announce their inten-
tons.
In The Senate the Republicans
will lose by voluntary retirement
such old war horses as Aldrich Of
Rhode Island. and Haze Of Maine.
They are about the last Of those
who have enjoyed four or more
full terms the Senate. Then
there is Senator Flint of California
who though he has served but one
full term. six years. has made an
enviable record for himself. Mr..
Flint. al hough a fairly thy
man finds that his personal I'M er-
ests are suffering greatly. while
a'p is attend to his Senatorial
duties, announced sometime ago
that he would not be candidate e
for reelection.
SO far as known the Democrats
IN the Senate will not lose any OF
their members through voluntary
| retirement. However, laying aside
the new faces that may be sent to
the Senate or House because of
the defeat Of sitting members
there will be many new faces
when the gavel falls calling the
| Sixty-first congress to order.
The deadlock still continues on
the River and Harbor appropria-
ton bill. The terms in the bill
which are creating the dead lock
are those urged by Senator Bailey
of Texas who has paragraph ap-
propriating for the Beaumont and
Orange improvements on the Sa-
| bine and Neches Rivers Senator
Paynter of Kentucky having an
item relating to a proposed lock
and dam on the Green River, in
Kentucky; Senator Stone is fight
ing for an item making an approp
ration for Lake Contrary on the
| Missouri River near st. Joseph
while Senator William Alder
Smith. is bringing all his forces
to bear in behalf of the Harbor ol
| Arcadia in Michigan. These item:
are antagonized in a very large
measure by Chairman Alexander
of the House Committee and tht
| House conferees. But even thougl
| a deadlock exists, and which a
present gives little hope of al
early compromise, those who hav'
been closely connected with leg

The widespread observance OF
Worlds Sunday School Day. III
more than two hundred lang
uagcs and diaects as reported TO
the Convention by cables from va
rious lands, was a real missionary
factor. Literally thousands OF
sermons upon the religious train
ING Of youth seem to have been
preached upon that day.
$4,000 in a Few Hours.
For the first time in its history
the Worlds Association tried to
raise budget for the expenses OF
the ensuing triennium. The sum
asked for. 100000, was all Sc
cured in few hours. This Will
be used largely in placing field
workers in foregn lands to develop
the SundaySchooi Idea and organ

The Convention sessions were
too numerous to be mentioned III
detail. On Sunday afternoon there
were twenty-five and on Sunday
night over a hundred. all with reg
ularly appointed speakers from a
wide area, Convention Hall holds
six thousand persons and 1t was
packed mornings as well as even
inps and the simultaneous ses-
ions often overflowed also.
Frequently the Convention broke

specially notable among the
sneeches were those of Preslden

Met Under q. World Map.

The Convention sat with a mon
ster map Of the world before its
eyes. The official button showed
the globe with a red cross super
imposed thereupon. Part of each
day was given to "ROll Gail Of
Nations. = The ends Of the earth
came together at Washington.
Strikingly, the note of interna-
tional peace resounded from ses-
sion t. session; the depth OF con
viction upon this subject which
possessed the delegates made the
gathering worthy to rank among
the great peace conferences.
On the closing night Of the Con
vcntion there was a tab.eau Of
seventy-five children reproducing
the picture which this Convention
has made famous: ''The Twen-
tieth Century Crusaders. The
children Of many nations gather
ed under the Sunday School flag.
At the same time delegates from
many lands-Korea, China, India
Japan. Mexico, Brazil Turkey, etc
gathered on the front Of the
platform and all sang together
to the one time. but each in his
own tongue. one Of the familiar
Christian hymns that is sung the
world around

what seems ut present a hopeless
mix-up is likely to be djs>jpatri
at a setting. The fact IS hat there
are too many worthy and mcritor-
Gus projects in the River and liar-
bar appropriation bill 10 warrant
its failure and conservatives on
the conference committee do not
recognize the serious character OF
the deadlock and are freely pre-
dieting that the Senators Will
yie.d their opposition to the items
referred to rather than see the
bill fail. 1t is asserted that Pres
ident Taft will veto the bill if
these items are IN IT when ri reach
es him. because the law Of 1902
expressly provides that projects

Congressman Martin of South
Dakota had printed in the Con
grcssional Record the other day
a table showing that the farmers
Of the middle West and elsewhere
were never in such splendid con
diton as today. This table shows
the purchasable power OF each
unit of farm products as expressed
in the things that the farmer must
buy and to compare the years
1897 and 1909, the market value
at New York having been select
ed for the purposes OF the com
parison. In 1897 a bushel OF corr
would purchase seven pounds OF
sugar, the same bushcl Of corn
will now purchase sixteen pound,
of sugar. A bushe. Of corn woulC
purchase in illuminating oil ac
cording to the table, twelve years
ago, five gallons. AT the presen
time if Will purchase eleven gal
Ions. Expressed in PURCHASING

corn would purchase three pound
of coffcc in 1897 bushel OF corr
would purchase three pounds o
coffee and 1909 n'nc pounds o
coffee. In barbed wire bushe
Of corn in 1897 would purchas'
eighteen pounds and at the pres
ent time it would purchase thirty
three pounds.
Continuing the examination o
this table which has already ere
ated considerable discussion, thu
average hog in 1897 would bu,
ninety pounds of granulated su
gar, now it will buy one hundred
and ninety-two pounds; IN lS9
it would buy forty-two pounds
of coffee, now it will buy on'

it would buy two hundred ant

comparison of the purchasabl'
value of the average horse IN 1S9
and 1909 supplies some most IN
teresting figures. In 1897 th'
horse would buy seven hundred
pounds of sugar, now he will bu.
two thousand two hundred ant
seventy-three pounds or more thar

length come into his own.
