declared Mr.. Barker with great en-
phasis Gin his annual message to
Congress, in 1904, the President
made no reference to these things.
Sufficient time had not elapsed. But
in his annual message in 1906 the
President did recommend these very
things.
Il wrote to Mr.. Roosevelt and told
him Of the statements that had been
made to me the day I met that finan-
cier in Broadway. l said | told the
man he had lied, but that now l saw
that he had told the truth.
Il have written Mr.. Roosevelt
many letters during our long acquain-
lance, and of all the letters I have
written him.. that was the only one
he never answered"
Then, by Inference, Mr. Barker
suggested the identity of the finan-
cier with whom he had held the a.
mazing conversation on Broadway.
"You will recall the theft of the
Hartman letters in New York some
years ago. he said F'In those let
tiers reference was made to a contri-
button of $250,000 for campaign ex-
penses. Does anyone believe that
sum of money was contributed for
the legitimate expenses of an cleo
tion?''
After declaring himself opposed to
the Aldrich plan for central bank,
and pointing out what he believed to
be the meaning Of that plan, Mr.. Bar
ker proceeded:
Long before the panic Of 1907 be-
came acute, steps were taken by
these New York financiers to protect
themselves. To be exact, in May Of
that year, number of gentlemen
gathered one night at the home Of J.
Pierpont Morgan to consider the fl
were here now.
Next day there came to me at my
residence in Philadelphia a gentle
man who had been at the conference.
a man of affairs in the business world.
FThis particular person had been
an officer in the Rough Riders under
Colonel Roosevelt. He said the
things proposed at that conference,
from a financial point Of view, were
frightful and he appealed to me to go
to Washington to see the President
abut them
''He declared that he had appealed
to the President himself but with
out success. 1t was agreed at that
conference that loans should be con-
tracted, credits withdrawn generally
and the money in the hands of the
banks put where it could be obtained
when needed to stop the panic they
intended creating.
'By demanding the enforcement Of
State laws they had had enacted gov
erning the reserves of State banks
and trust companies and retaining
the reserves in their hands, the ma
tional banks had 100000 of re-
serve money that they decreed
should be taken out of circulation.
Then the panic began.
'"The banks tried 20 get their own re-
serve out of New York and could not
get dollar. Chicago had $50,000,-
900 there, Philadelphia had $780,
100000 and Boston $40, 100000.
Not dollar could they get. I went
to the President and told him that if
he wanted to stop the panic all he
had to do was to open free money in
the Treasury to these cities and
take their drafts on New York. The
Government would have the first lien

Produce Something.

One dollar that is earning inter-
est is more valuable than two dol
lars that are earning none.
A humble talent that is put to
use is worth more than genius lying
idle.
A single idea that is converted
into action is doing better service
than a thousand ideas that are un-
expressed.
A menial job that brings in real
cash pays more bills than the high
salaried position in prospect
The pennyworth that is sold
spells bigger profits than the dollar
worth that stays on the shelf.
A bird in the hand is worth two
in the bush.
Say it with as many frills as you
want, the point is this;
Do something. Deliver the goods,

The Lucky and Unlucky Months
for Matrimonial Ventures.

The lucky and unlucky months in
which to begin a matrimonial career
are set forth in the appended
verses:
Marry when the year is new,
Always loving, kind and true.
When February birds do mate,
You may wed, nor dread your fate.
If you wed when March winds blow.
Joy and sorrow both you'll know.
Harry in April when you can,
Joy for maiden and for man.
Marry in the month of May,
You will surely rue the day.
Marry when June roses blow.
Over land and sea you'll go.
Those who in July wed,
Must labor always for their bread.
Whoever wed in August be,
Many a change are sure to see.
Marry in September's shine,
Your living will be rich and fine.
If in October you do marry,
Love will come, but riches tarry.
If you wed in bleak November,
Only JOY will come, remember.
When December SHOWS fall fast,
Marry, and true love will last.

Highway to Happiness.

To be calm when others about
you are troubled; to dream dreams
and yet not be mastered by them;
to think and yet not make thoughts
an end; to meet triumph without
pride and disaster, without being
embittered; to walk with the many
and keep virtuous; to hold converse
with the mighty and yet not lose
the common touch; to be influenced
neither by the criticism of foes nor
the flattery of friends; to endeavor
to be of service and helpfulness to
others; to keep in mind the transi-
tions of life's experiences; to love
humanity and to trust in God-these
are the guideposts on the highway
to happiness. Selected.

A small boy who had recently
passed his fifth birthday was riding
in suburban car with his mother,
when they were asked the customa-

After being told the correct age,
