from the first her owl. suggesting
eagerly how this and that detail might
best be managed, and showing a famil-
iarity with Mrs. Tabor's trouble, and
with nervous a~bnormality in general,
hardly less complete and practical than
theirs. Presently we heard the voices
of the others in the hall, and she went
confused blur of tones, Mrs. Tabor's in
timid protest and Sheila and Lady in
reinsurance; Their Mr.. Tabor, a little
louder than the rest: moi in the least,
my dear. Why should 1? You should
have told me all about it from the
first" Then the voices grew q~uieter,
and at last blunted into silence behind
the heavy curtains of the living-room.
We waited an interminable five min
utes, gazing into one a%nother's rigid
faces, and hearing only the restless
movement of Reid. At last. Doctor
Paulus nodded to us, and we tiptoed
noiselessly across the hall to where
around the edges of the close-drawn
curtains we could hearNand see.
At q little caro- table, drawn out into
the centre of the floor, sat Mrs. Tabor
and the medium, face to face. Be-
tween them and beyond the table was
Mr.. Tabor; Lady sat on her mothers
nearer side, and Sheila, with her back
to us. completed the circle. They were
all leaning forward intently. something
in the attitude of people saying grace
before a meal. The windows were not
covered, but the dull light of the late
and stormy, afternoon came inward
only as a leaden grayness, in which
faces and the details of the surround
ings were heavily n vaguely visible,
like shadows of themselves. In the
window at the far end of the room the
canary hoped carelessly about his
cage, with an occasional cricket-like
chirp; and but for this the house was
quiet enough for us to hear the swish
of the wind along the leaves of the
vi~ne-covered veranda and the ripple of
the rain upon the glass.
| knew now hat my excited ensa-
lions at the previous ssittings. must
have been imaginary in their origin;
for ever here, in the presence of this
open and prearranged imposture, I felt
the same curious sense of tension, the
same intimacy as of a surrounding
crowd, the same oppressive h~eaviness
of the atmosphere. l could hardly be-
lieve in the airy s~paciousness of the
high room, or the physical distance
between me and my fellow watchers.

The hygienic purpose Of a bath is
cleanliness. Incidentally a bath may
be tonic, sedative, refreshing or thera-
peutic. For a healthy person cleanli-
ness is it's real objective.
An important problem of modern
hygiene is to remove the impression
that seemingly clean skin is after all
hygienically clean kin Ashes, mud,
dust, cinders, coal, paint, varnish and
garden soil are often not dirt in a
sanitary sense, Even the nursing in
FAINT would go unframed from sterilized
filth. But this offensive tell-tale smut
when under the f~inger-nails. and on
ones linens, is the red-light of infor-
nation. 1t indicates that a deadly and
invisible foe nourishes there.
There are many bedizened denizens
of the fashionable world whose shiny
hands, manicured nails, enameled
cheeks and scented skins, gloss over,
but do not destroy the deadly disease
germ buried in the riot of cosmetics.
Normal individuals battle regularly
every morning. This is as It should be.
During the rest of the day these same
persons assume that the absence of the
visible signs of dust and filth is excuse
enough 10 neglect a h~and-and-face
bath. Just as many seem to think that
washing ones hands beyond the point
of seeming cleanliness, is a waste of
time, soar and water.
Observe TIE slovenly habits of some
women in the Kitchen. and ponder over
their actions of srizing first a soiled or
polluted domestic u~tensil, then a batch
of dough. Are you then surprised at

NO PROTECTION NEEDED.

1t will be remembered that Andrew
Carnegie, prior to the time that the Re
publican Congress met in special ses
sion in 1909 TO revise the tariff down
ward, and revised it upward instead
took pains to demonstrate that no pro
lection whatever is needed for the pro-
duction of steel in the United States
This also is evident from the fact tina.
the United States steel makers 90 into
all parts Of the world and compete
successfully with their greatest rivals
in any country, getting contracts away
from them. both on the points of cheap.
ness of work and swiftness Of construc.
tion.
The latest advocate in this same
field is Charles M. Schwab, who
was the first president of the U. s.
Steel corporation, and who is
probably as great a steel manu-
faeturer as there is in the world, Mr..
Schwab, In his recent testimony before
the House committee which was in.
vestigating the steel combine, ad
mitted practically that the protective
tariff is needless for the steel industry
IN this country He told the commit.
tee, as his testimony is editoraly sum-
married. In the Springfield Republican,
that while The per diem cost Of labor
Is much higher here than abroad the
cost per ton of production is as cheap
here as anywhere That is, If labor is
paid more here per man than abroad, il
is more efficient. and the labor cost of
production is equaIized by this greater
of American labor.
That is conclusion which is practj.
cally the same as Mr.. Carnegie urged.
Vast machinery performs greater func.
tions in this country in the way of
steel production, and in fact in other
fields. than il does in other countries
The handling Of the iron ore bv i'm
mepse steam shovels; loading and un
loading of the transports by machinery;
the transportation on specially prepared
railway tracks, where the freiphtape is
on the minimum of cost. all
tell heavily in favor of American steel
production as compared with that pro-
ductlon abroad. Under our protective
system the American steel producers
compel the Americans 10 pay larger
prices for steel rails, as we'll as for
structural steel, than our own pro.
iucers of steel sell the same products
abroad The result Of this is that
Americans have to pay more for such |
and like articles than foreigners have
20 pay. and the American consumers
have to make up this difference And. |
'lnce the protection itself is admitted |
% be unnecessary, this is certainly a |
great injustice toward American CON
umersO OF steel products.

The average financial

make a study Of financial

there are more than a few
