The Impetus of Reform

Let us not be too hard on Mr. Taft because he isn't
carrying out the platform promises He is surely
trying to make amends by prosecuting number of
progressive measures overlooked not only by the
platform but by all the party orators in the last
tonal campaign.
You will remember that Mr.. Taft engineered a
great social reform by excluding the common horde
from the annual Army and Navy ball, first thing
His next step was to break up the custom of hav-
ing the common horde let into the White House
grounds to listen to the famous Marine band play,
Saturday afternoons. Clearly, if the common horde
wants music and wants grass upon which to recne
for breathing spell to air it's children it should
buy bands and lawns of its own.
In his efforts for SO important national cause
social progression the president has been ably
seconded by the first lady of the land" Mrs. Taft
was born and raised to gobS of money and highest
cial position Cincinnati papers please copy, and
society recognizes her superlative taste in many in
novations noticeable about the Taft court.
A coat of arms has been put upon the presidential
auto. The stable boys have been uniformed Mrs.
Iafts gold and ivory piano is in the celebrated
"blue ROOM Two majestic buffers now stand on
either side of the public entrance to awe the COM
mon horde and ''the first lady, now has personal
attendant about the city in the uniformed person of
Capt. Archibald W. DeClavering Butt. Moreover
theater managers no longer begin their perform
until the presidential family arrives or signi-
lies It's decision not to arrive at ALL When the pres
1dent does arrive the orchestra strikes up the Star
Spangled Banner" and the common horde in the
pit rises to its feet until the presidential family is
seated.
While these blessed reforms, progressions evo-
lutions were not promised by the party platform or
indeed by anybody advocating Mr.. Tafts election,
they were promised tacitly by the very tempera-
ment and ideals of the Tafts themselves. and If an
anxious nation will only contain itself for while it
will surely get all of this sort of thing that's coming
to it.

pacing back and forth, was pull.

hand touched his shoulder. He
wheeled with a sharp exclama-

his side. The latter, giving a few
directions in a low tone, moved 70
a small closet and the jeweler
slipped into bed.
The professor had noted that
1t was 2 o'clock when he heard
the door of the bedroom open. A
young man with a dark, intent
face stood by the bed. He waved
his hands in a peculiar fashion.
The jeweled raised himself and
got heavily cut of the bed. He
dressed and the two went out,

chase led to the jewelers. shop.
The professor saw the jeweler
stop and shake his head In vio-

made some strange passes with
his hands. Suddenly the fat
figure of the jeweler seemed TO
sag. A moment later the profess
sor heard the jingle of keys and
the door opened.
When he slipped into the shop
the jeweler was kneeling before
a big safe, twisting the knob this
way and that. The younger man
stood triumphantly over him.
Finally the door swung open, Mr..
Holstadt thrust in his hand and
pulled 1t out with a string of enor-
nous diamonds dangling from his
fingers.
The young man. his eyes never

reaching out for them, when the
professor pushed over a vase. II

leaped backward. Suddenly, as
though released from a spell, the
ieweler raised HIS head. He saw
the diamonds between his fingers,
then looked at the young man be-
