The Daylight Question

How few people realize the charm of
night walksv' says a writer in the
Treasury. "There is a far more mys-
terious loveliness in some fair view
when 1t is flooded with soft moonlight
than on those clear days, lauded of the
sight seer, when every detail of the
landscape stands out with the crude de-
tail of a colored picture postcard.
Towns are certainly less ugly after
dark. London is most picturesque at
sunset; but it is charming also in the
winter when the shops are lighted up.
Again, you walk through suburb or
seaside town in the daytime and you sec
no more than rows OF hideous villas.
Then visit it again about 10 o'clock
on a summers night The displeasing
form of the buildings has ceased to be
visible. But the lamplight glows
through the open windows, and each
house you pass shows you a pleasant
picture of people sitting at their ease
a game of cards. Or you wander far
ther-beyond the houses, into the lanes,
where the air is fragrant with honey
suckle and the silence is broken only
by the fitful mufmur of the wind
among the leafy bows, or, In the dis
tance the closing of some cottage door.
Above you is this immeasurable vault
of heaven, sprinkled with the patient
stars; the abiding peace seems to enter

BENJAMIN Franklin

In the county Of Northamptonshire
England there is little place called
Eaton, and on one OF the farms near
many, many years ago, family called
Franklin lived and worked
One of the Franklins, being young
and adventurous, left his old British
home and came to America which was
then quite a new country, and in due
course, having married he became the
father of II children. One of these chill
dren was called Benjamin,
The elder Franklin was a very relig-
ious man, and lie brought up his ~
children in the same way.
1T was always his custom to say
grace al every meal, though often there
were only herrings to eat.
Indeed, Franklin used to buy q bar
relful OF herrings at time, as IL was
deal cheaper than buying few every
day.
Now Benjamin. being then but a boy
OF 10 thought Ii a great waste OF time
saying grace over every herring.
SO one day. when he was very hun
cry and his father was going to ask
long blessing as usual. little Benja-
min looked up and said: Father,
wouldn't you save a lot OF time il you
said grace just once over the barrel
OF herrings Instead OF doing 1t at every
mealT' tit
Father did not agree with that. but
one rather thinks he must have smiled
at his sons idea.
Benjamin Franklin. though he was at
first only printers boy, became a
great statesman.

year or more OF dead work before
reaching the point with the new tunnel
where economical extraction OF ore was

This organization on Tuesday settled
for another lot OF good ore. consisting OF

QUICK TURN IN
EASTERN MARKET
Coppers Take Bit in Teeth and
Run Away With Selves
Wednesday.
MAY BE TURNING
POINT OF SLUMP
Good News Soon Will Be Di-
vulged if Rise Has Right
Foundation.

There was mysterious influence at
work Wednesday on the eastern stock
markets, the copper issues especially re-
necting a strength that was unexpected
but thoroughly gratifying. Everyone
agrees that the copper stocks have been
driven to such a point mnrketwise that
everything short OF great national ca
lamity has been discounted, but there
have been so many complications in the
general Industrial situation that those
usually best versed in market conditions
have been loath TO express anything but
doubt as TO the immediate future action
OF securities The sudden turn for the
better yesterday In the east, therefore
was unhcralded.
AT least two reasons may be assigned
for this rise In price. The first Is that
IL is n manipulativc move; the second.
that there is some foundation in fact to
the several rather buliish rumors current
during the past few days that some sort
OF an arrangement is on the tapis TO bet
ter the copper situation
Several who keep In touch with condi-
tions lean strongly TO the second cause,
and they believe that something Is on
foot which Will be divulged in a few days
TO place a much brighter phase 10 the
copper situation generally. The cry has
been made for months that the copper
producers should voluntarily curtail their

market for something Hike his normal
stocks. Curtailment however, is not re
garded favorably by the low-cost copper
producers. popularly referred TO as the
porphyries, for they assert that they
were conceived and backed by capital

SHOULD NOT DISCOURAGE
LEGITIMATE LAND DEALS

Apropos of the western land question.
the National Finance Of Chicago makes
the following comments.
Those who are interested In land
speculation must not overlook the fact
that of the recent land movement now
being subjected TO criticism half or II,
II not more, has been OF the purely
legitimate, commendable character
rather than Of n speculative nature, and
nothing should be done to retard or dis
courage an activity OF that kind.
There is an evident effort being made
to call halt upon what Is called land
speculation on the part Of the farmers
OF the west. Whatever real motive has
prompted this, II cannot be looked upon
as working toward the best interests OF
the country as a whole. unless 1t be

There Is a decided difference between
the legitimate land buying on, the part OF

and land purchased purely as specula-
