IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN


 The Mystery of Man and Woman.-ll.
 The real head of the house is the
 woman.
 Man has been called the ruler sim
 ply because he is bigger and stronger.
 As well call a horse the ruler of his
 driver!
 I have noticed in France, which is
 wise country, a woman always keeps the books and the cash box in every shop, even in every restaurant and
 drinking place. Certain popular notions are untrue. One of these is that woman has no
 business ability. Exactly the contrary is true. The average man fails in business. Nay, they say that for every successful gro- cer or lawyer there are ten failures. Whereas, the average woman has brain just suited for affairs. The woman is strictly business. The incompetent, empty headed wom- en you know are Sg merely because Of their training; they have always been kept in restraint and ignorance.
 But women are slowly but surely in vading the business world; particu- | larIy as to detail work. A woman is distinctly superior to man in managing an office. attending
 to routine and keeping affairs in ship shape.
 Man is the adventurer He does big things. plays havoc, succeeds, fails and all that A woman manages. ]

ssaweed Cloth.

The apparently wasted products of the earth and sea are being turned to account to the profit of the costumer and the tailor. Ladies' silk blouses from timber shavings and mems suits from seaweed are the latest things in the textile market. Some scientists have been experimenting with the fbers of which seaWeeds are composed, and, says the Tailor and Cutter, have discovered a method by which these can be utilized and dissected into threads, which have a curl and elas- ticity similar to the single fibers Of wool. They hope to introduce machin- cry by which seaweed may be spun and woven into material, and sold at one-sixth of the price of ordinary cloth

NEW EMeLAnD,s OPPORTUNITY.


 It would be quite natural for the in- crease in the supply of cattle for the market to cause a decrease in the price of beef. There is reported much larger shipments to the stockyards, with many coming from Alberta for the first time in a number of years Hope of improvement in meat prices will interest the consumers particu larly, for they have had long experi- enee with high prices for which to a large extent the law of supply and de- mand is responsible. It is not this country alone which is suffering from it. England. which is free-t trade country, and has no import duty on foodstuffs, has experienced advances in like proportion.
 The problem would seem to be one of increasing the supply, and there is certainly reason for such view, for the supply has not increased in ac- cordance with the growth of the coun- try and the demand is greater than can be supplied. A writer in the Bos- ton Record sees in this a problem which New England must Wrestle 
 with, and in urging the return to the farm holds that the west will no long CT supply the beef and pork. except at prohibitive pricesS and that the supply must come from New England itself
 There was a time when a large amount of beef and pork was raised in New England. and it can be done today if the young man will realize his opportunities. Farmers of today are leaving everything to the west to pro- duce. Greater interest in the advan- tages of New England is needed, and the realization that millions of dollars which are now sent west could be re- tained right here in New England and handsome profits made off the land, coupled with the reduction of prices.

WHITMAN's GREAT WORK,

It is an uphill fight which District Attorney Whitman is engaged in in running down the murderers of Gam bier Rosenthal In an apparently simple ease, enough opposition is being thrown in the way of carrying out jus tice to balk less persistent man than the determined official. It is a mani festation Of the power which is ex- erted for evil and the protection of certain interests of the metropolis, when such an official cannot depend upon the police force of the city to make the arrests and assure the safety of the prisoners while waiting for hearings. Had the police desired to clean up this murder case, they could have long ago done so and the gang of guilty men been behind the bars.
 When the condition exists in a city where prisoners fear to return lest the police do away with them, it is time for a grand upheavaL Those men who have such a fear are the very ones who know the power of the New York police, and when they manifest such a dread of getting into their clutches they are passing that fear on what they know from experience. Ii Is no wonder that mass meetings are held in New York for a declaration in behalf of better conditions. The inves- tigation of the police force and the graft system which is maintained therein cannot be avoided. The time has come when heed must be given to the appalling conditions which are allowed to exist. Whitman is accom- plishing his task so well that he is being promoted for state office, but il is apparent that the best thing New York can do is to keep him right where he is. He is needed there, and Nor wich takes pride in the fact that he came from this city

ANYTHING FOR VOTES.

The ird-termer evidently carries the impression that because he says so the people have no right to think or believe otherwise. This has been char acteristic of the man. He sets himself up as the one chief authority and de- spite the many pitfalls into which he lunges, the statements he makes in his great moral crusade, and his past record in similar circumstances. he expects a tumultuous Hooking to his banner. Needless to say he is disap- pointed. He is offering nothing new for the consideration of the people, but he has 8 fascinating way of set ting forth what he does say, and there in gets before the people personal word-picture of hls own glo;lous ac- complishments and views, which sounds good, but will bear investigation,
 In his recent address in Providence he took the opportunity of f1av1ng the bosses, and declared that Rhode Island has suffered from boss politics in the most extreme form of development. That statement cannot be disputed, but it is his own personal attitude towards | that very same bossism in that very same little state. which he failed to l mention. The Providence Journal says When the Providence Journal appealed to him in 1906 not to permit his name to be used to uphold the rot ten Brayton machine in this state he 1 trimmed like a ward politician and said he must stand by his party or it would weaken his influence The Jour nal has correspondence in it's office to prove this Yet he now asks for Rhode Island votes as a foe of bosses!"

EouNpArloNLEss CLAIMS.

The sama fOundationless claims are being made by the progressive party packers concerning the breaking of the solid south as were those which characterized the campaign previous to the republican convention, when all kinds of absurd assertions were made relative to the Roosevelt strength for the purpose of further influencing the movement by favorable coloring It had no effect then and is having none now, but for the running down of the real sentiment in the southern states, the New York Times made inquiry of many men of high character and much political experience in those states, with the results that it finds the re- turns do not seem to sustain any of the claims made by the progressives. The southern white men have long memories. They have no faith in the professions of MT. Roosevelt. So it goes around the circle. There is no democratic defection.

SURPRISING NEEDLESS NOISE


 It is by no means strange that the big cities are deeply interested in the decrease of unnecessary noise. and the assemblage of 800 prominent physi- clans at the International Geological congress in Boston is lending it's aid in the suppression of the evil, which, to certain degree, is to be found in all cities, whether large or small It is, of course, possible to get such a hobby on the elimination of noise that it gets to be joke. and again there is such thing as giving in too much to the nerves, but with the constantly in- creasing bedlam in the streets, to which the automobile has contributed greatly there can with profit be a united action for it's elimination to a reasonable degree.
 No well person, to say nothing of the sick and nervous, many of whom jump at the rattle of a paper, welcomes the shrill notes incident to railway whis- ties, the incessant changing of bells, and the inexcusable use of the mufier cut-out in the racing of automobiles. There is reason in the desire that the unreasonable noises should be stopped and certainly the auto comes in for much attention in this regard. The movement is only in it's infancy, but needs organized action to make it suc- ceSSful.
 There are, of course, the early milk wagon, the yelling hucksters, the street pianos and other noise makers of the large cities to annoy, but it must be recognized that while the suppression of an unnecessary noise would be a highly meritoriohs thing, yet there are some which it is well for the people to accusto mthemselves to, and it is apparent that the anti-noise crusade must be conducted reasonably and not at the sacrifice of public welfare

THE LOST PHOTOGRAPH

My Dear MT. Post: The package which I am sending you with this let ter contains the letters and gifts of various kinds that you have sent me during the last four months. I feel reasonably sure that I am returning everything which you have given me except the photograph of yourself taken last summer when we were all at the camp. am sorry to say I cannot find that photograph However, if I come across it shall either de- stroy it or return it to you, whichever you prefer.
 Some of the things that you gave me are. perhaps, too much adapted to me personally to be of use to you when you enter into another engagement, but most of them, think, you will be able to make use of. Very sincerely yours,

 Dearest Katherine: Your note, with the package, came to me like bolt of lightning out of a clear sky. Of course l noticed that you were unusually qui- ct on the way home from the club dance last night, but l thought that was merely because you were a little tired. If I am right in assuming that you mean to break off our engagement l feel that have right to ask for an explanation What have l done to cause you to take such step? Please believe me when say that haven't the faintest idea Won't you let me come and explain if I have inadver- tently offended?
 You hurt me when you say that you have lost the photograph of me that I gave you. could never have misplaced a photograph of you. Let me come, won't you? Yours in great anxiety,

 My Dear MT. Post: It hardly seems to me that it is necessary to explain to you after the way you behaved with Miss Smiley at the dance. Even with your rather strange ideas you must have realized that it was an unpardon- able thing for you to dance with her twice in succession while l, your fiancee sat out one of the dances. feel confident that no good can eome from our talking the matter over. The whole thing has been a mistake from the beginning.
 T am not thinking of myself. When a girl has so obviousIy outlived any passing attraction that she may once l have had it makes no difference whether she is happy or not I arr thinking of you. You could never, ,witt your disposition, be contented with 6 woman whom other men would per 1 init to sit out a dance while the mar she is engaged to is dancing with an other girl. Your attitude toward peo- pie is too dependent upon the attituds of others toward them.
