Road to Business Success.

Are you discounting your bills this
year or paying interest? The retailer
who discounts all bills is doing bust
ness on the right basis. The man who
pays interest is losing money both
ways and cannot hope to compete with
aggressive merchants. He loses the
interest and the discounts, and to-
gether they amount to more than a
fair trading profit.

CONSIDERATION FOR
 STATE CONNECTS
Men in Stripes at Little Rock Are Not Required to Work During
 Extreme Cold Weather.

Little Rock, Jan. 5.-When ii comes cold day, a real cold day wish you were a convict if you do not want to work. When it is real cold weather the convicts of the State of Arkansas do not have to perform manual labor, and are al lowed to l;e in idleness, resting un- til the sun shines again so they can be worked without danger oi pneumonia or other ills. During the recent cold weather, Monday and Tuesday, the state convicts rested
 and toasted their toes by warm fires, while the free laborers of the state labored in the cold winds to keep the wolf from the door. 1t ap- parently is not always bad to be a convict in Arkansas. Supt Piteock states that convicts are so easily made sick, and sickness among them is so often fatal, that the state can not afford to take any great risk with the men in order to protec their health.

A kinu's Hobby,

The late king of Siam had an extraor- dinary hobby-that of collecting empty matchboxes of all nations. In this connection an interesting story is re- lated. During one of his visits to Eng land the king while passing down Bond street one afternoon, accompanied by two members of his suit espied an empty matchbox which had been dis carded by it's owner and thrown away into the middle of the thoroughfare. Without a moments thought the mon- arch dashed into the middle of the crowded traffic. grasped the much GOV etcd treasure and was nearly run over by a passing cab. The fact. however, that he was able to add new speci- men to his collection gathered under such circumstances more than com pensated him for the risk which he had run.-London News.

MOSCOW CATHEDRAL.
Fantastic Looking Edifice Erected by
 Ivan the Terrible.


 One of the most extraordinary and fantastic Christian places of worship in the world is the Cathedral of Mos COW. known as Vasili Blaienni, strange not only in outline and conception. but even stranger in it's history. No one knows the architects name. but the story goes that the ear ordered his eyes to be put out directly the church was completed, so that he should ney- CT be able to surpass his work. The idea of the building was inspired by the wickedeSt and maddest monarch who ever sat on a throne-Ivan the Terrible. czar of Muscoyy
 The architecture is in every respect eXtrayagant and barbaric, and the col bring is garish in the extreme. It has nine chapels. roofed by nine cupolas. each different and each stranger than the other One resembles pineapple, another melon. a third is said to ape a hedgehog in it's appearance, and the rest are more or less grotesQue. Some are gilt others are painted in brilliant hues Indeed, the only description is that 1t is nightmare of church, the fitting legacy of ruler who grilled his counselors in frying pans and clothed his subjects in bearskins in order that trained dogs might worry and tear them to pieces.-Strand Maga- zine.

Gothic Architecture.

Gothic architecture began about the ninth century after Christ and soon began to spread all over Europe. It's great feature is the pointed arch, and it was at first called the pointed style" Most of the glorious old world cathedrals are ill the Gothic, and it is generally conceded that for religious purposes no other style of architecture is so perfectly suited. It has been said that the first idea of the Gothic was suggested by the interlacing boughs and trunks of the great woods in which German Christianity was formed: hence the name Gothic-New York American

DlSLIKES INNOVATIONS.
Hence the Rhino BIindly Attacks Any
 thing New to Him.

tnin9 iSeW to '''h''
 Sir Frederick Treves, the distinguish ed British surgeon, in his book "Ugan- da For a Holiday has a word or two to say about the rhinOceros.
 '1The rhinoceros is the embodiment of blind conservatism he writes. "lts hide is impenetrable, it's vision IS weak while it's intellect is weaker. It has, however, two marked qualltles-colh- bativeness and a sense of smell. It IS aroused to it's maximum energy by tho presence of anything that is new. This object need not be a thing that is ag- gressive or inconvenient. Its offensive ness depends upon the fact that 1t IS unfamiliar, and the more unfamiliar the object is the worse the rhinoeeros gets.
 "Vbep q rhinoceros smells a man he will charge him with maniacal Vlo- lence, although the man may be mere lv sitting on q stool reading Milton The massive beast will dash at him like q torpedo or runaway locomo- tive simply because the smell of him is novel.

Senate Gets Data
On Clerk Pensions

Senator Cvmmins, chairman of the
Civil Service Committee of the Senate,
laid before that body this afternoon an
elaborate report from the Department
Of Commerce and Labor on the cost of
retiring Government employees and on
various other phases OF the pension
and retirement question.
The report was submitted to the Ser
ate in response to a resolution of last
session. The report of the department
Is a most exhaustive discussion. of the
various retirement plans and the cost
thereof. The reasons for the retirement
of employees in the classified service are
emphasized. 1t is pointed out that
the average Government salary is only
S94S The increased cost of living is
nowhere felt more than in Washington.
1t is urged, and this is given as a spe-
Ctal reason why the retirement system
should obtain here.
These two propositions are laid
down in the report.
First that the interests. of the serv-
ice demand the elimination of super
animated employees unless they are re-
tired on a competency.
The fact is emphasized that the Gov
ernment clerk has few opportunities
of making money outside. 1t Is point
ed out that the service suffers from
the retention of aged clerks in office
and 1t is estimated that the Govern
ment loss is 100000 a year from this
source. The injustice to the whole
body of employees of the retention of
the aged and infirm is dwelt upon.
A large part of The report Is given
over to tables of mortality rates. tables
of annuities, and other matters bearing
upon the cost of a retirement system
It is calculated that to withdraw from
each salary to purchase an annuity
equal to IL per cent OF the actual sal
ary with interest compounded at 3h Der
cent would cost about T.22 per annum
for a male at seventy years.

Remodeling Is Begun
On F Street Building

Joseph Schenker, until the first of
the year manager of The Louvre, has
taken a ten-year lease on the three
story building at the northwest corner
of F and Thirteenth streets northwest,
and will open a women's clothing es-
tablishment there about March 1.
Alterations to the building to cost
$500 were began this morning. The
lease represents a consideration Of
$4,000. 1t is known that a real estate
broker offered Mr.. Schenker 5000 cash
for his lease yesterday afternoon. In
the past ten years the rental of the
building has increased from 5000 TO
$500 year. The corner is regarded as
one of the best for retail purposes in l.
street.
The alterations to the building are
to be extensively including an entire
change of the front. Plans have been
drawn for the remodeling by Julius
AVenig, architect. Negotiations for the
lease were made directly with the Joyce
estate by Mr.. Schenker.

without feature. The failure of most
of the list to follow the rails gave the
bulls little hope of forcing the market
higher. and about noon trading settled
down into lifeless condition that gave
small promise Of anything lively fer the
afternoon. Financial conditions are
such on the outside at present that spec
ulators are wary about buying heavily
on the basis of a possible rise. The
market is oversold and the bears are
as hopeless as the bulls, which accounts
for the heavy appearance of the market
after the furry in Canadian Pacific had
exhausted itself.
While the recent rise in stocks, COW
ering the period since Saturday, may
be attributed to the support of strong
interests II must be held in mind that
support of this character usually ex-
tends only far enough to see to 1t that
the market does not decline. For that
reason stocks are not likely to go much
higher Of this movement External con-
ditions have not changed, and they are
not favorable to permanent bull move
ment at this time.
