Not at all, R. H. B., We are
glad to answer you inquiry.
There is no absolute law
among printers as to the
proportional width of mar
gins on book pages. The
best publishing houses, how
ever, always have q widest
margin at the bottom of the
page, a narrower one at the
front, a still narrower one at
the top, and the narrowest of
all at the back.
There is nc good explana-
ton for such a proportion
ing. 1t is usually said that
the eye takes in two pages
at once and by using mar
gins as indicated above a
more unitary and pleasing
appearance is had than by
centering the printed matter
on each page. There is no
doubt of the more pleasing
appearance of the varied
margins.
A book page should be
about fifty per cent longer
than it is wide. An excellent
little book which would in
terest you is Printing in
Relation to Graphic Art" by
George French. We do not
carry it in stock but would
be glad to order it for you.

BUILD THE HOUSE WELL.

Students are builders. Each man or
woman, who with true purpose enters
a college or university, begins at once
the building of a ife.
More than two thousand at the Uni
versity of Missouri again went on the
Job Thursday where they had left off
last June. Some are erecting the
framework. Others have gone fur
ther with their work and are putting
on siding and shingles. Still others
are applying the paint, which is to
supply to the building the quality of
attractiveness as we'll as stability and
durability. Some are beginning the
foundation. All are at work-build-
ing.
Desire and purpose, the foundation;
knowledge, the framework; industry
and zeal, the weather-boarding, and
honestly, the shingels-all these are
necessary materials in the building
of a life.
Build carefully. Build constantly.
Build we'll.

FISH STORY
TOLD BY COOPER
Wrote to Mr.. Cutler and Told Him
About the Bull Moose
Tribe.

The Carthage Republican publishes
the following letter from Mr.. Cooper
to Albert Cutler of that city:
My Dear Mr.. Cutler:
have your very kind message
dated November thirteenth, and the
most pleasing statement in the whole
letter is the one telling me you are
feeling so well.
You have been correctly informed
about the progress we are making and
am sure when spring comes | will
have the pleasure of seeing you and
showing you all over the whole work,
and letting you see the immense tur-
Dimes in the performance Of the i'm
portant work they are to accomplish.
We are now putting in machinery az
the rate of about fifty tons day, and
muet keep this up for the next one
hundred and twenty-five days without
1 interruption. Sometimes when / see
the number Of tons of machinery we
have to install wish the price of it
was a little cheaper per ton, but
wishes don't regulate such matters
and we are having to pay what the
A other fellow thinks best.
The weather Just now Is particu-
| LARRY suitable to our daily needs and
1 | sincerely hope you will use your best
Influences wit. the governor of the
weather to the end that we may be
tafflicted as little with adverse winds
as possible for the next five Or six
months.
We had today and yesterday a good
deal of fun with fish. We pumped
out the lower canal level yesterday
and today. / find to my great aston
/ ishment that the canal was not only
ia canal but an aquarium. never saw
| fresh water fish before SO abundantly
| that they could be scooped up in
! wheat sacks and carried away in car
loads of fish this afternoon at $40 per
| load Some of them were cat fish and
some of them we're cat fish kittens;
some were buffalo and others looked
! q good deal like dull moose and the
methods used in taking them from
4
but sportsmanlike. Fishermen waded
around in the shallow water with big
| scoop nets and about half the time the
| load in the nets was too much for the
handles and they had to dump part of
them out before they could be manag
led. The only thing in this fish story
! that consider remarkable is that the
fishing really became good yesterday
or Friday, and II the doctors in this
town are not busy for the next few
days pulling bones out Of peoples
Threats am no guesser.
Now be very careful all this winter
SO that when spring comes again we
can fulfill our mutual desires for a
visit together at the dam.
Yours very truly,

DESERT CASE IN
SUPERIOR COURT
]. W. stanley, Arrested In oaIesburs
on the Charge Of Desertlon Is De-
PENDANT Before Judge
McNamara.
WIFE rs POOR WITNESS
About Fifteen Witnesses Ara Called
to Superior Court In Case
Brought BY Mrs. Mary
y. Stanley.

The case against J. w. Stanley.
charging desertion, was called in the
superior court yesterday afternoon
and promises to take up quite q lot OF
time, If the array Of witnesses called
by both sides is any Indication.
Mary H. Stanley charges her hus-
band with deserving her and leaving
her in destitute condition with near
" 800 in debts hanging over her. The
couple have been running the Stanley
restaurant, on the levee, several
months and Mrs. Stanley says that
her husband left her on October %.
with no provisions and she had to
close up until she could borrow money
to stock the place.
Mrs. Stanley was the first witness
called by the prosecution ana said
that about four o'clock in the morning
OF October %, her husband came to
their room and packed his suitcases
and left the place, after having long
seance with another woman, who was
staying there. The complaining wit
ness was a very poor one, Attorney
Marshall, for the defense, appealing
to the court time after time, in an eff
fort to COMPEL the witness to an
swer questions. She seemed very
susky on the stand and Mr.. Marshall
forced several damaging admissions
from her.
The mother, uncle and two women
employees Of the restaurant were also
called to testify as to the amount OF
provisions left in the place, when
Stanley left Officer William Wilson,
who went to Galesburg after the de.
PENDANT was also called.
The state will close its direct ex.
animation this afternoon and the de
tense will introduce several witnesses
1t is likely that the case will not be
concluded until tomorrow.

nations.
This phase Of the situation the
Democratic platform does not go
into, and the other phases Of the
high cost of living, due to the great
er cheapness Of money and to the
greater reward to the producing
classes. the Democratic platform
does not seem to comprehend.
TO lay to the Republican party
the blame for the conditions which
exist all over the world is an abb
surdity.
And to fail to have a constructive
plank on one of the most impor-
tant issues before this country and
all other countries is an evidence of
ignorance and incapacity.
A further evidence of ignorance
and incapacity is exhibited in the
anti plank, the third plank Of
the Democratic platform. The pol
icy of the Democratic party is ap-
parently Mr.. Tafts policy of en-
which proved so disastrous to BUSH
ness and so absolutely valueless
to the consuming public when
pressed to its ultimate conclusion
under the Taft administration.
The dissolution of the Oil trust
and the Tobacco trust resulted in
no benefit to the consumer what
ever.
1t resulted only in an apparent
advantage to these companies and
an enormous increase in the value
of their securities.
Competition has not been re-
stored because competition can not
be compelled.
Prices have not been reduced.
but, on the contrary. have been in
creased.
The only advantage to business,
or to the community has come
through a certain security and sta
bility to those business interests
affected, and a certain confidence
due to the conviction that they are
now conducting their combination
along legal lines.
Nothing, however, has been ac-
compltshed for the consuming nuh-
lie, and nothing will be accom-
phshed until the government is en-
powered to supervise and regulate
the formation of combinations and
further empowered to fix prices.
The fundamental Importance of
this fact is not recognized or I'M
derstood by the Democrats who
wrote the platform at Baltimore.
and The platform has no practical
constructive policy in this third i'm
portant issue before our country.
The fourth plank in the Demo-
cratic platform discusses states
rights.
There has been considerable Dem
ocrauc cutlery about the invasion
OF states rights and very little TO
justify the cutlery. The rights of
the states and the Federal govern
ment are very clearly defined by the
constitution.
The Federal influence can only
proceed to a certain point

The Democrats have done their
share toward advancing these
measures to fulfllment, and can
properly take a good part Of the
credit for their success.

the only measures distinctly and
