has learned from travelling
men that this winter has

says the financial editor, that

kept many men from wearing
their coats, and that these
garments did not wear out.
Now, the sufferers of last
summer have perfectly good
coats, but badly worn trousers.
And so they desire some gar
ments to mate the still good

tries, they being largely foreign-born
residents, who are employed in the steel
plants in Gary. If the results shall
bear out the first prophecies, then the
postal bank will have fulfilled one inn
portant purpose at least, for the an
nual drain of money from the United
States through transmission TO foreign
countries is enormous, as the statistics
show. Much of this money goes for
the support OF relatives Of American
laborers, but great part very likely
is turned over to them for boarding
purposes, to be restored to the Garner of
it as soon as he shall return to the ma
tive country to spend the remainder of

this latter practice it win save great

A NON. PRESIDENTIAL TOUR.

Despite Governor Wilson's protesta-
tions that his western speech ma king
trip has nothing to do with his pos
sible candidacy for president of the
United States, the general public cannot
get the idea out of their minds, and
probably several aspiring Democrats are
much disturbed about the trip. Per-
haps Governor Wilson did not intend
the trip to take on such significance; but
it will, regardless of what he intends to
do about it. The western people do
not know what manner of man this col
lege politician is, for until his
election as chief executive of New Jer.
sey, he has been little known outside
of educational circles. The people are
not acquainted. The present trip serves
as an introduction; good introduction
it is likely to be since Wilson is a force
full, clear thinking speaker, of the kind
calculated to make an impression. When
Governor Wilson turns his steps home
ward, it will be very interesting and
instructive to know just how he ap.
pealed to the westerners.

Sometimes, when you, dear little one,
Have closed your eyes and gone to

When all my daily tasks are done,
Beside your little bed | creep
To watch you smiling while you dream,
All pure at heart. from trouble free,
And, though You do not know or guess,
You make me long for worthness
And lure my lost hopes back to me
Sometimes, when all my efforts seem
To be of no avail and when
Ny wish TO claim the worlds esteem
And be the peer Of worthy men
Has seemed a futile wish, | bend
Beside you where you sleeping lie,
And, DIS watch, my hopes return,
And through your trust in me | learn
To keep ideals that are high.
Sometimes, when nights deep shades
descend
And raindrops beat against the pane,
When meath the storm the branches
bend
And all the dripping boughs com
plain,
| watch you where you sweetly sleep,
Your trust in me serene, secure,
And, though you do not know, you
sweep
Ny doubts away and let me keep
My faith unsoiled, my purpose pure.

rendering plant ii is competent TO pass
intelligent judgment upon every phase
of the issue drawn by those persons
that defend the sale for food purposes
under some conditions of beef from an
animal that was slaughtered be-
cause il reated TO the tuberculin test,
and those other persons that contend
that the meat should be destroyed.
But perhaps this is not a matter to
be decided wholly upon the diagnosis
OF veterinaries, after all Perhaps
there is something in the instinct Of
OF human nature that loathes
food that is even under suspicion of
faint And perhaps II is en- instinct
OF preservation that no amount Of
wise diagnosis by expert veterinaries
can hull to indifference. "The animal
was diseased says the veterinary, 9but
not so very much diseased but that its
flesh is safe food And thus the gate
way ia opened for the eventual sale of
any kind Of diseased beef that does not
actually kill anybody while sitting
knife and fork in hand at table, but
gives physician time to put the vic
tim to bed
There was a good deal in the Mosaic
law about clean and unclean animals
that had great deal Of hard common
sense in it. And ii was born Of mans
experience, too, long before the light
of veterinary science decreed that an
animal could be diseased, and not "too
diseased" for food,-St. Albans Mes

A POSTAL BANK PURPOSE.

1t is said that one strong feature OF
the postal bank system, which has just
been inaugurated by the United States
government, is the tendency to check
the the practice of foreign-bor people
in sending their earnings to the "old
country" In the case of Gary, Ind,
where a postal bank was recently estab-
lished, it is said that at least $780,
600 year, which has been going to
foreign countries, will be kept in the
United States; and IN substantiation
of this claim the facts attending the
opening of the institution are pointed
out. When the Cary postal bank has
opened there was long line Of depos-
itors waiting to place money in the gov.
ernments care, and il is asserted that
the money they brought would most

The great success, "The Thief" which
comes to the opera house next Tues
day evening is a play for women to
talk about Ever since its production
in Paris, where il created sensation,
and in New York where il caused all
the dramatic reviewers TO exhaust
themselves in columns Of praise, the
women of both countries have used it
as the chief topic Of conversation for
months after witnessing perform
ance.
THE Thief exposes the inner work
ings Of woman's heart-a woman so
deeply in love with her husband as to
go 10 any lengths to please and TO
satisfy him Marie Louise, the wife
in "The Thief" the role originated BY
Margaret Ellington, has passion to
please her husband He has often ex-
pressed his admiration of her friends
because they looked SO nice, and
dressed so beeomingly" Marie Louise,
for fear OF losing the love she held
so dearly, determines to hold IL BY
dressing in a manner to attract and
interest her better half But she has
insufficient funds Her husband is NOT
rich, and clothes cost lots OF money
So she buys dresses she cannot pay for
and in order not to be found out steals
money from her dearest friend, whom
she il visiting The blame Is laid on
her friends son. who, because of his
love for Marie Louise, confesses to the
crime
But the husband is not satisfied and
questions his wife more closely with
the result that. in torture of agony,
tears and supplieatlons, she finally con.
fesses that she and net the boy is the
thief Her husband is thunderstruck
He denounces and casts her off The
wife, wrought up to the highest pitch
of anguish, threatens to hurl herself
from her bedroom window She is
restrained and made TO confess to the
woman from whom she stole the money
The disgrace is too great for the hus-
band to bear, however, and he decides
to leave the country. Before going,
he forgives his wife and she accom-
panies him to begin life anew II is

critics to be the greatest play of its

One or two of the petitions were

or five were put into circulation to-
day. There was some talk about re-
calling Trustee Holt also, but those
back of the movement decided that
Millard was the ring leader and that
If the campaign against him was sue
cessful and they were successful in
electing a man favorable to them in
the place of Chairman Babcock

they would have a majority of the
board and the fight again Holt was
