''The light IS much better outside"
explained Miss Binley. "And, be-

some snapshots Of you just as you
are-weeding the onions"
"'You can come with me tomorrow"
she said to Holbrook II had prom
ised TO drive with Johnny Larcon, but
all engagements are off in the face
OF an epoch making chance ike this"
The next morning brought weather
perfect alike for pedestrianism ana
photography. The day was cool, and
thin haze tempered the rays of the
mountain sun. Miss Binley ran down
the steps to meet him. radiant with an
ticipation, and as he received the big
camera from her hands Holbrook
thrilled with the thought of another
morning at her side.

said the young man as the last turn

ladies. Holy smoker gasped the
youth. IT'S they, all right, but no
wonder we didn't recognize them"
Miss Binley gazed, speechless in hor.
rifed amazement. as her two subjects
approached the gate. Gone were the
picturesque gowns and the sunbonnets
of faded blue. In their place the Kim
balls had donned "A veritable riot of
modistry. Their costumes paid tribute
to the varying fashions of a full half
century.
But the faded countenances of the
KimballS showed naught but pride
and satisfaction, slightly tinged with

found that silk skirt she had made up

Holbrook welcomed the old lady's
volubility. for it was plain that for
once his companion was at a loss for
words. When Miss Binley finally
found her voice it was so queer and
strained that he scarcely recognized it:
I'm sorry you went to all the

Looking Ahead.

Don't get too gay, colonel You have
no more chance Of carrying a southern
state in 1912 than Mr.. Taft had in
1908, and it is hardly likely that the
republican national convention will
nominate any candidate for president
on such an off chance. Can you carry
the state of New York this fall for
your candidate for governor? is the
predominant issue as far as you are
concerned You have split your party
In the Empire state, and have added
fuel to the political fire in the west;
and common sense will compel the re-
publican party to nominate a candidate
for president who can draw the war
ring factions together. and, therefore,
his name can hardly be Roosevelt.
Why not run on the Hearst league
hcket for president with Mr.. Hearst
as the candidate for vice president,
who is getting used to playing second
fiddle these days.

Deceivin2 the Public.

During a heated campaign, such as
the present one is, a great deal of
loose talk is INDUCED in by partisans,
and the public must use common sense
to distinguish between truth and ex-
aggerations. Stalwart republicans are
In such tight place on the tariff issue
that they are especially prone to mis-
statements. For instance, at the Mich
igan republican state convention, Unit
ed States Senator William A Smith
declared: I'VE have created a tariff
commission with unusual anC far
reaching authority, have given them
means to prosecute their researches,
and when, in the future, changes are
desired, the representatives of the peo-
pie can consider them in the light of
wider and more accurate information
which this commission can supply"
Now, there IS no tariff commission
in existence, though there is a tariff
board provided for in section of the
tariff law, which says: ITO secure in
formation to assist the president in
the discharge of the duties imposed
upon him by this section, and the Off
GERS of the government IN the admin
istration of the customs laws, the pres
ident is hereby authorized to employ
such persons as may be required"
The duties imposed upon the presi-
dent by section 2 was to determine
what countries Disseminated against
the United States through their tariff
laws; and if on March l, 1910, any
country was found to be so discrimin-
ating. the president was to declare the
maximum tariff rate of % per cent, to
be added to the regular rates on i'm
ports of articles, to be in force against
such country. The president decided
that no country was so discriminating
on that date, and the only further work
for the tariff board under the law was
to assist "the officers of the govern
ment in the administration of the Gus
toms laws" The debate in the senate
shows that the proposition for a tariff
commission was defeated, and Senator
Smith voted against it.
President Taft, however, has SO
stretched the law, allowing him to ap-
point such a tariff board as to set them
10 work to discover the difference in
the cost of production here and abroad
Of the articles named in each tariff
schedule, which work has so far been
entirely without effect. The standpat
faction Of the republican party, of
which Senator Smith is an adherent, is
quite satisfied with this useless tariff
board, while the most progressive of
the insurgents, such as Senators La
Toilette, Cummins, and others, are any

Before news of the rescue came
from Captain Down of the Trent, the
president decided it was time for
the government to take a hand in
looking up the missing aeronauts.
While he was inspecting Ellis is
land, he inquired frequently for
news of the voyagers. When none
was forthcoming, he telegraphed~ af-
ter luncheon to Secretary Andrews
of the treasury department at Wash
ington to ask what revenue cutters
were available to send to sea on a
search for the balloon.
The secretary replied that the de-
partment could send the dereIict de-
stroyer Seneca from New York, the
Gresham from Boston, and the
Acushnel from Nantucket. These cut
tiers Immediately were ordered to
sea, but before they got under way
the president learned of the rescue

AerOnauts Launch LifebOat.
After careful preparations the
Iifeboat was lowered and launched.
While the launching was under way,
however, the brisk wind caused the
equilibriator 70 sway violently and
to strike the wireless operator, Jack
Irwin, and Louis Loud, one of the
assistant engineers, as they were
lowering themselves. They were
not seriously injured. The equilibri-
ator at one time swung against the
frail lifeboat of canvas and mahog-

hole in the side of the craft. The
puncture was too small to cause SER
ious trouble.

wireless Plays Important Part.
Wireless telegraphy, which first
helped in life saving at sea when the
steamship Republic was sunk in
collision a year ago last winter, for
the first time played an important
part in an aeronautic rescue. Dur

lamp signaling also was brought into
