PARIS RESTAURANTS.

The cheaper restaurants ofs Paris have all put up their prices recently The least expensive meal to be ob- tained in the restaurants frequented by foreigners costs at least francs. but there are still many marchands de wins and restaurants a prix ike in the Latin Quarter. where an appetiZing if not very substantial dinner may be had quiet decently served for a franc and q half. including tip.
 At the end of the eighteenth century, when the restaurant Gas we understand it) was invented, the most princely dinner cost , francs. Probably 25 francs would not buy it today. This was served at the then fashionable Hotel d'York in the Rue Jacob. the picturesque old thoroughfare on the left bank
 There were very few establishments of this kind in Paris. but among them were the Hotel de Bourbon in the Rue Croix des Petits Champs. behind the Magasins du Louvre, where table d'hote means were supplied for the in- elusive price of francs 50 centimes Ca good round sum in those days), and the Hotel du Nom de Jesus in the cloisters of Saaint Jacques de 'lHopital. where 2 francs was the maximum charge. These were the favorite res taurants at that time. The first a la carte restaurants were opened in 1774 The Queen.

THE LAND MOVEMENT
 AND WESTERN FINANCE

IL is one of the notable changes in the condition Of inc ,wsst that the small DGnk has become a larga fact Dr in financial affairs. For many wears the farmer was the one .iidividudl to whom the west looked for its prosper ity and for management of its busi- ness writes Charles Nj. HarGer, in the December number of tine North Amer ican Review. Upon him everything seemed to depend, but as the small bank developed it pla ed in a prom iR.nt position in western finance thousands of men whose attention was given entirely to the handling of tue fdimcrs' savings. In consequence they have become to a large extent the balance wheel that maintains a steady condition for the financial sit uation. It was the banker who. called a halt on the land speculation. The farmer himself had no idea in that direction. He was ambitious to eX- tend his properties and acquire new holdings without considering what might be the effect upon business or the supply of money. The banker, however. realized that it would not do to keep up this imitation, and he demanded that the land buyers use more caution. This feeling on the part of the bankers had a direct, positive effect upon the land move ment and called a halt in specula- tive land buying. It did not, of course, immediately depress prices of real estate. nor is it probable that any such effect will take place over the west generally unless there should be a series of crop failures.
 On the whole, the land movement has assumed a much more substantial and sane basis and one which gives less concern to the . banking interests. though it has not yet returned to the complete normal condition that hank CTS desire. The good prices for crops of all kinds if maintained will rapid ly accomplish this, and if the bank ing interest and the loan companies maintain their present plan of con
 servative action and discourage spec ulation in every form there ought soon to be a modification of present financial conditions

 Manufactures model and year, manufacturers model of chassis. bore, passenger capacity. style of car and body, name of manufacturer, manufac- turers number of motor. medium weight, strike, total piston displace- ment.

 The speedway is being put into good shape. Several men and teams will be at work on il right up to the day of the races. Altogether Tucson will spend about $l.500 putting the speed way in shape and when the work now under way is complete the old Pueblo will have an auto racing track that can't be beaten anywhere in the south of'it being within the limits The uni versity is in the rectangle formed by the speedway. The total length of the track, as shown by a recent survey, is l3.9 miles.

WIN. S. GUMMERE MAY
GET GOOD APPOINTMENT

Washington, Dec. S.--William s.
Gummere is chief justice of the
New Jersey supreme court. He has
been selected to be a member OF
the United States supreme court, ac-
cording to persistent reports here.
Some politicians have even said he
will be chief justice. Judge Cummere
was born in Trenton, N. j., and is So
years of age. He is famous for Civ
ing a decision that a child's life was
worth $1.25.
This case was where a father
brought suit against a railroad for
killing his child. Judge Cummins al
lowed $1.25 damages. Politicians
declare President Taft cannot afford
to appoint Judge Cummere. But
many conservative Washington cor
respondents declare that he is on the
slate
President Taft is keeping his list
carefully guarded-so carefully, in
fact, that Justice McKenna asked a
few days ago if he knew who would
take Justice Fuller's and Justice
Moody's places.

Urgent Appeal
To Shop Early
Brunswick, Ga, Dec. s, 1910

Brunswick, Ga, Dec. s, 1910.
Editor The News: In years past
it has been the custom to wait until
the last days before Christmas to do
the shopping that one may be in the
"crowd." In doing this have we
thought of those who must stand be-
hind the counter, the clerical force,
the delivery men and boys? II not,
let us pause for minute now and
consider them. We each know the
peculiar delight we feel in the last
few hours before the dawn of Christ
mas day, and how we enjoy planning
for that dawn, what surprises we
shall give the various friends. We
have had time to arrange without in
terruption or haste, the little re-
membranes. Have those who serve
us in the stores had this privilege?
What of the girls behind the counter,
do they not also dream of just this
same delightful hour. and if so what
opportunity have we given them to
realize this dream?
On behalf of these clerks, the
clerical force, the delivery men and
boys, ask your assistance in bring
ing before the public of Brunswick
the Importance of early Christmas
shopping. before the merchants
the Importance of early advertising,
and let us show that we wish to take
soma active part in civic and social
reform.
To this end I wish to urge all
women of Brunswick TO do their
Christmtas shopping at their earliest
opportunity, not to stop with doing
their own shopping early, but do
some missionary work among their
friends in urging them to do like
wise.
This action has been taken by va
rious ORGANIZATIONS in some several
sections and resolutions to this effect
have passed. Shall not Brunswick
join hands with them and help?
