The members of the cabinet meet
at the white house to report upon

all matters of government business
and policy. These conferences are
known as cabinet meetings. They
constitute a department of govern

constitution.
No record Of the cabinet meetings
is made, and the public is not in
formed of what takes place at them.
In fact, the cabinet has no legal
existence, in a strict sense. 1t is
merely an advisory body. The
president may. or may not. follow
the advice of the cabinet members.

and to offer such advice as seems

Clinging Vines.

You can not think of these women
standing alone in the world or
fighting their own battles. They
are bound TO have something to
hang on to, and it is to the honor of
men that these clinging vines never
stretch out their tendrils in vain.
Some man always steps UP and
qualities for the oak role. The
more utterly feminine a woman, The
more irresistible her charm for
man, and this shows why the bust
ness girl, the good fellow girl. and
the athletic girl who looks and acts
like mans little brother hasn't
got the come-hither look in her
eve.
Undoubtedly, also. the come-hith-
er look in woman's eye is a look
that expresses Willingness. 1t is not
the hard. predatory look of the
huntress- of men, of the woman who
is determined to chase down a hus-
band and catch him, and bear him
as a sacrifice to the altar. From
that look even the boldest man
fees for liberty and life. Nor is it
the cold. self-satisfied. self-contain-
ed look of the bachelor maid that
says that her heart is an impregna-
BILE fortress that She dares a man
to try to break into. That look
affronts a mans vanity. and makes
him feel that the game isn't worth
the candle.
The come hither look is a fatter-
ing look. a gentle yielding. caress-
ing look that makes every man feel
that ne is a hero of romance. and
ready to swear that he is the ONLY
ONE that has ever had that signal
wig wagged 10 him from the eyes of
beauty. 1t is a fluttering, haunting

1t has happened five times in the
history of the United States that
the vice president has succeeded to

He has in charge all business be-

He is authorized (and no other
cabinet officer Isl to negotiate with
foreign governments in the name
of the president. 1t is the duty of
the secretary of state to supervise
the publication of all laws, treaties
and proclamdtions.
The salary of each cabinet officer
is $4,000 per year. small sum
when one considers the importance
of the offices to be filed and the
experience and skill necessary to fill
them properly 1t has been urged
that the services Of cabinet officers
would be of greater value to the
government if they were given
seats in congress. This would tend
to loosen the restrictions by which
the officers are bound.
1t must be remembered that the
nine executive departments of our
government were created by acts
of congress; that the bringing to-

THUGS PICKED TO
KILL ROSENIHAL
LOST THEIR NERVE

New York, Aug 2.-Police Lieut..
Charles Becker, head OF the strong
arm squad" of gambling raiders, who
is charged with instigating the mur-
der of Herman Rosenthal, today
was further implicated in the plot to
get rid of the gambler when Bald
Jack" Rose and BRIDGE" Webber
added another chapter to their amaz-

They told District Attorney Whit
man that Rosenthal was to have been
killed at the instigatiOn of Becker 10
days before he actually met his fate.
and that the plot failed because the
underworld thugs selected to do the
murder lost their nerve.
The district attorney spent the
greater part of the afternoon with
Rose and Webber in their cells at the
West Side police station, and, under
the promise of lenienCy, they talked
freely.
The plot that failed" was to have
been brought to it's climax a the Gar

The steel trust investigating com

work on May 4, 1911. Since that
date it has heard many witnesses and
made many trips of inspection and
investigation. Among the witnesses
heard have been most of the great

age with the exception of J. Pierpont

com mittee says of this:
Up until the time of this interview
the steel corporation owed its success
and its permanency to the power and
the skill of the financiers who had
created it and the iron masters who
had directed its operations. Since
that time its dominance has been due
in no small measure to the sudden
ill-considered and arbitrary fiat of

The Presidents refusal to inter-
