Nov. Womans Home Companion.

The November Woman's Home Com
panion contains an article by Presi-
dent Taft of interest and Importance to
every woman. 1t is an appeal to the
women of our country to help the
President in his efforts to get the SEN
ate to assent to the arbitration treaties,
which, If signed will go long way
toward abolishing war. 1t would be a
great achievement, and the President
believes that women can help bring it
to pass.
Aside from this very important fea-
ture the November Companion contains
mass of good reading, beautiful illus
tratlons and useful suggestions. Not
able fiction is contributed 10y Josephine
Daskam Bacon, Jeflery Farno (author
of "The Broad Highway'), iona Gale

Origin Of Common Phrase.

We owe the word "catchpenny" to
a publisher of the name of Catchpin.
After a celebrated murder trial in
1924 when the assassin had been exc.
cuted for the murder of W9are, this
man hit upon the bright idea of issu.
ing a penny ballad entitled "We Are
Alive Again" People jumped to the
conclusion that the title was "Weare
Alive Again." and as 1t sold like wild.
IRE to the extent of two and half
million copies; hence "Catchpin" or
"catchpenny" affair came to signify
hoax Of that kind incidentally II
may be remarked that the ingenious
Catchpin succeeded in catching two
and half million penniesi

THURSDAY, OCT. 20, 1911.

A rural life conference was held at a
town in Missouri short time ago and
one of the speakers told the delegates
why he left the farm and went to the
city to study law. He said:
"When | was boy on the farm we
were compelled to rise about o'clock
every morning. From the time we got
on our clothes until 1870 o'clock we
fed the livestock and MIXED the cows.
Then breakfast. After breakfast we
worked in the field until ll:30 o'clock,
then after spending at least thirty min
utes in caring for the teams we went
to dinner. We went back 10 work at
| O'Clock and remained in the field I'M
til 100 o'clock. After quitting the
fields we did some chores until 800 or
o'clock, and then we were advised to
60 to bed right away so that we would
be able to do a good days work on the
morrow"
This lawyers story of his experience
as boy is reminiscent OF some OF
Hamlin Garland's sketches of sordid
farm life in the Northwest, Under
such conditions it is no wonder that in
the past so many boys have availed
themselves of the first opportunity OF
engaging in different occupation.
'All work and no play makes Jack a
dull boy.' 1t also makes him a dissa-
tistied boy and if he has much of the
mettle of manhood in him he will not
long endure that sort of an existence.
Conditions on the farms at the pre-
sent time, as a general rule, are not as
severe as those described by the Mis-
souri, lawyer. There has been progress
in agriculture since this lawyer was
boy and farming is in many
respects a different proposition from
what it was in those bygone days
of early rising and endless chores. In
ventive genius has given the farmer
labor-saving machinery which lightens
many of his tasks. The great need of
today is knowledge OF scientific
farming. Better schools and more
progressive methods on the farm will
make rural life more attractive and
there will be less disposition on the
part OF the rising generation to leave
the farm.

Feared His Lawyer.

A young lawyer had been appointed
by the court to defend a man charged
with larceny In his argument to the
jury he pleaded for the acquittal OF his
client. He told of his innocen: boy
hood days, of the good character OF his
father, mother, and brothers. In
short, he launched forth into family
history.
The prisoner, an old darkey, had
listened with growing uneasiness to
his counsel's plea, and as the attorney
went on without hint OF stopping,
the negro was driven to desperation.
Jumping to his feet, he yelled to the
court;
us guilty, Yo' Honoah Use guilty.
De jury can't do no noah dan send me
TO jail TO- six months, but if dat fool
lawyer doan stop, dey'll hang me, TO-
suah.'--Judge.

Mr.. Underwood said in a speech in
Chicago that the people of the United
States pay Sl03,00O,0O0 out every year
as a subsidy under the system now in
operation. In other words it costs
every man, woman and child in Amer
lea more than 81 a year to contribute to
the wool graft which President Taft
declined TO disturb when he vetoed
bill that was designed to improve The
situation by modifying schedule
which he had declared indefensibe.
Wool is a universal necessity in
America. The poor in tropical coun-
tries can get along without wool, but
in the United States there is no eli
mate SO mild that wooden garments are
not worn.
That 10000, 900 or l0O,000,0O0 con-
sumers of wool should be held up by
the manufacturers and made to stand
and deliver is, OF course, an indefensible
outrage, just as President Taft felt
that it was when he signed the Payne
Aldrich bill, and just as he must have
still felt when the exigencies of politics
forced him TO veto the coalition bill
upon the ground that the tariff board
had not yet made its report upon the
comparative cost of prod, elton here
and abroad.
Even II it were true-and it Is not
that the manufacturers of wooden goods
divided their graft among employees by
paying them artificial wages out of
their artificial profits, the subsidy
would still he indefensible. 1t would
not be fair for every indi vidual in
America to be forced to join in sub.
sidy for the comparatively small mum.
Der OF employees and their employers.
The situation would be like that Great
ed by the pearl button industry which
gives employment to between j0,0OC
and 100000, by putting prohibitive
tariff upon buttons and forcing the
100000 to support the $4,000
Schedule X is just as indefensibe a,
it was when President Taft said i
was indefensible. The President, ant
not the schedule, has undergone
change.

for damages, as personal property can
nearly always be duplicated, whereas
person buying realestate may want
it for some particular reason and be
unable to find another piece OF land
| which would exsotly answer his pur-
pose in all resi- ects. Therefore, If the
seller or buyer of live stock or other
personal property refuses to carry out
the bargain of sale on his part, the
only remedy which the law affords the
other party is suit for damages on
| account of the breach of contract, for
the reason that with adequate da-
images, the injured party can place
himself in as good position financially
as he was before the deal was made.
In such cases, however, 1t Is very i'm
portant to understand the legal rule for
the measurement of damages, which is
as follows: 'The injured party is en-
titled to recover from the party who
is delinquent the difference in money
value between the contract price at
which the property was sold, and the
actual market value thereof, at the
time ard place where the property
was delivered, or was agreed to be de-
livered." This rule is well founded
upon the following logical reasons,
namely. If the seller refuses 70 de-
liver the property at the price agreed
upon the buyer can generally purchase
property of the same kind and just as
good from other persons at the market
price; IL therefore the market price is
higher than he agreed to pay, he has
been damaged by the sellers refusal to
deliver, to the extent of whatever in
crease he is compelled TO pay in the
market for the same kind of property.
In other words, he has lost the benefit
of the good bargain he made and the
law affords him damages therefor to
the extent Of the difference he has had
to pay.
VII liic oullci ndilt, IL bilC puyoi ~
fuses to receive and pay for personal
property which he has contracted to
buy, the seller may lawfully sell such
property to other persons for the best
price he can get, or at the market
price and if such price be lower than
the original buyer agreed to pay, the
seller can recover the difference, be-
cause he has lost the benefit of the !
good sale he has made, and Is injured
to the extent of the difference between
what the original buyer agreed to pay
and what he actually received at the
market price. Where there is no
definite market price of like articles
generally recognized the injured party
may recover the difference in value
between the contract price and what
it will cost 20 produce such an article,
or the difference between the price
agreed to be paid and the price it can
be actually sold for as the case may be.
LII SolD' opdbcb VIC SOulpS hdNC uCCluCt
that where the contract price Of pro-
perry is paid in advance, and the seller
re fuses to deliver it according TO con-
tract, the buyer can recover from him
the very highest price that could be
obtained at any time between the sale
and the time of trial of the case n
court, but this rule has been severely
criticised and the weight of judicial
authority is in favor Of the rule first
above stated, as being more Just and
equitable. Wisconsin Farmer.

The result Is that large seamless
