Exercise.

Exercise Is what people talk about
Exercise consists of cold bath
every morning, a brisk walk of FIVE
miles in the open air, and a session
with the clubs and the punching bag.
This forms a constant topic of con
versation. Folks who talk about It al
ways say they must take 1t. Exercise
Is seldom taken. 1t is not very catch
ing.

EXTRAVAGANCE AT WASHING
TON.

RecklessneSS in expenditures is re-
sponsible for the ruin of many a hap
py home. Extravaganza is habit
that grows rapidly either in the fam
lily or in business One eXtravagant
ecutive who is careless with his firm S
money, can start a regular carnival
of extravaganza.
This is likewise true of a city,
state or nation. The astounding
increase of expenditures at Washing
ton is due to the example of extrava-
gance in high places in recent years.
The present scale of national finance
is something to set poor men think
ing and increase the animosity of
those who regard the rich as their
enemies.
Not so many years ago the Ameri-
can people regarded with apprehen-
sion the extravaganza of eXpending
$4,000 year for salary of the pres
ident OF the United States ard up
keep of the white house. Today we
expend annually $2S9,420 for the
same purpose.
The presidential garage and
stables cost $4,000 year, or more
than 500 a day, to maintain. The
greenhouse supplies flowers for the
presidents table at cost of $4,000
a year, or almost S25 day. How do
these expenditures strike man in
the street who earns perhaps 50 per
day, and must support a wife and
two or three children on that meager
income.
Hundreds of eastern millionaires
have been made by the republican
high tariff which gives them the priv
ilege of taxing the west for their
private profit. These rich men and
their families spend money like
water for their own comfort and
amusement, but do not pay anything
like their proportionate share OF
taxation.
The appropriations for expenses OF
national government in 1890 were
s34O, 100000. For the year ending
June 80, 1910, they are $1,044,014,.
