Senators AIdrich, and Crane
Confer With President.
PAYNE LAW PROVISIONS
Reciprocity Clause as Affecting Re-
lations With France and Canada.
NOMINATION OF TRUsT-BUsTER
William S. Kenyon Successor to
Wade Ellis in Department
of Justice.

Senator Aldrich and Senator Crane
spent nearly an hour today at the White
House. the whole time being given to
consideration of the prospective tariff
difficulties with France and Canada.
Under the tariff law it becomes neces-
sary for President Taft to apply either
the maximum or minimum rates of that
law by March 81 to the importations from
the various countries, according to treat
ment of American goods by those govern
ments. France and Canada are the only
countries which are charged with dis
eliminating against American goods-that
Is, discriminating by giving the goods of
other countries better, tariff rates than
those from the United States
President Taft has hoped to be able to
avoid tariff war with either country.
As to France, negotiations have been 60
ing on for some time, but nothing has
been done.
France and Canada have trade agree
ment with each other by which Canada
gives certain concessions to French goods
tain Canadian goods. It Is this agree
ment upon which is based the charge
that both France and Canada are dis
eliminating against the United States.
In giving preference to French goods
ana refusing to make concessions to this
country, Canada is accused of not acting
IN friendly manner to the United States
In settling the question now before the
president. the two countries are in
volved in such way that the decision
that is reached will apply to both at the
same time.

ROUGH ON THE POOR TRAMP
Thirsty Traveller UnknowIngIy Pumps
Water Into cistern Of Ingenious
Lazy Individual.

The tramp had walked good three
miles and was particularly thirsty. A
sudden turn in the road brought him
to the foot of a steep hill, at the top
of which stood large house. The
tramp paused a moment before at
tempting the herculean feat OF storm
Ing the hill He felt hungry and
thirsty. He glanced to the left. These
words caught his eye: "Tarry, trav-
eler, and refresh thyself" The tramp
was sorry the sign was attached to a
pump-handle. However, water was
better than nothing, so he commenced
to pump. The spout remained dry,
He pumped with more vigor. Still no
water. After ten minutes Of hard
work he said harsh things about the
pump, and continued his journey. At
the top of the hill he mentioned his
grievance to a native. The latter point
ed to the fine house across the road.
The owner of that house." he said,
has some big water-cisterns which
have to be filed from stream in the
valley. He is too lazy to fill 'em him
self, though; SO he rugged up that
pump and connected it with his els
terms, and now"
But the tramp was already sprinting
across the road to argue with the mar
who owned the pump.

THREAD USED BY SURGEONS
Only Material for Buried
Suture.

When Lister first advocated the EN-.
ployment Of catgut as material for
ligatures, numerous writer's pointed
out the objections, both theoretical
and practical, to the use of this sub
stance. But time has seen a change
and many surgeons at the present
time maintain that the only suitable
material for a buried suture is cat
gut, and that silk should never be
employed except for skin sutures.
In this, as In so many other points,
the surgeon is greater than the detail
It is certain that millions of silk SUI
lures have been inserted in the deep
tissue, and have not cut their way
out, for If a suture does make its way
to the surface it is probably always
because It was septic
The attempt to find a ngature or
suture perfect in every way has
caused surgeons to employ many diff
ferent substances. Metallic sutures
for time received much support,
though they are rarely seen now.
Animal flbres of various kinds, such
as kangaroo tendons and threads OF
the aorta Of the OK, have been praised
by some surgeons, and one surgeon
claimed that perfection was to be
found in fibres obtained from the liga-
mentumnuchae Of the narwhal. It is
fortunate that the medical world has
not fallen In with this latter recon-
mendation. for 1t is to be feared that
the supply would fall far short Of the
demand.

Novel Way to Raise Money.

ITO raise a considerable amount OF
money with very little trouble is to
form story chain, for a winter" says
Martha Landon. in Woman's Home
Companion.
"A group of ten women meet at the
home of one of them on an afternoon
and one reads aloud story, some
thing worth listening to, like "The
Toy Shop" or "The Man Without a
Country" or any of the best short sto-
ries; then tea is served and perhaps
there is a little music. Each person
present pays an admission fee of 25
cents. In turn each of the ten guests
give a similar tea at her home and the
same programme is followed, and each
of these guests gives a tea; when this
has been done three or four times the
chain comes to an end, but the treas
ury is filed"

For sleepIessness.

Lack of proper ventilation often
causes sleeplessness. Many ills OF
mankind have been blamed on the
"draught" and while, to mothers, it
seems bad policy to bring up a child
with the draught-of-air fear always
present In mind. it is not advisable to
sleep with the air blowing directly
over the body. But there should be
plenty Of air in the room. Wear q
nightcap, If you are afraid of a cold
in the head, and place a screen in
front Of the window. That will pro-
tect the body and yet allow free cur
rent Of air through the room. II you
are sleepless, I'LL the lungs with fresh
air, breathe deeply and rhythmically,
and soon you will fall asleep. A cup
of hot milk and long, deep breaths
Of fresh air are better sleep inducers
than drugs.

HAPPINESS IN IDEAL STATE
Il 10 Relative Thing, Depending on En-
vlronment, Previous Conditions
and Status Of Mind.

Happiness is the supreme object Of
man largely, we may suppose, because
1t is an ideal state, which few beings
have attained except for short periods
In their existence. Perhaps this Is be-
cause happiness is a relative thing,
depending on environment, previous
conditions, and the status Of the indi-
vidual's mind. Just as to the man who
has been out in the winters cold a
room In which the temperature is 80
degrees will seem warm, so one who
has been buffeted about In the battle
with the world, beaten down at every
turn, will find much happiness in a
status which to another would be SUI
preme unhappiness.
Happiness depends on ones train
ing, and still more on the natural tend
encies Of a person. One man finds
delight to books, in earnest study all
his life; another finds Joy in the open,
communing with nature. One holding
money before him as the great goal
obtains comparative happiness in OBJ
tanning 1t. Another finds in the love
OF wife and children even greater hap.

Caesar would rather have been first

with half the zeal he had served his
earthly master.
