the damage suit of Mr.. Krouse, who
was injured in a shipyard, who was will
ing. on the advice of a lawyer, to accept
a lump sum of $1,000 as compensation,
but the court cannot legally accept this
amount. as the law automatically
awards him $40 per week for 400 weeks,
or a total Of $4,000. Why his lawyer
only wanted him 20 have one-half OF
this amount. but to get il all at once,

believe that a compensation law like
this, which compensates without nti-
cation, Is what the workers Of the states
need.

ALWAYS MASTER OF FINANCE
How John D. Rockefeller Established

Just because John D. Rockefelle,
has made more money than he can
count without the aid OF nineteen
clerks and forty adding machines, not
to mention we'll trained corps OF
coupon clippers, there are many people
who come forward these days with
stories to show that John, now famous
for his wealth, wigs and wit, was once
about the cutest person that ever hap
pened when 1t came to financial strate-
gy.
According to this latest narrative,
Rockefeller told q close friend-and
that "close" goes both ways-one
morning that he wanted to borrow S5.-
900 and that he must have it in order
to save his business. The friend went
down town In the course Of his work.
and pretty soon met big banker.
II WISH" said the banker, IF you
see Mr.. Rockefeller this afternoon,
you would tell him that have found
place to put that $4,000 which he
asked me to loan out for him."
The friend gasped like a goldfish,
and proceeded on his way, encounter
ing another Of the towns leading
bankers.

when you see Rockefeller this after
noon. please tell him that have found
q man who wants to borrow that $10.-

The friend staggered on, and met a
third banker, who repeated what the
other two captains of finance had said.
Then he went back and found Rookie
Teller.
"John," he said, in establishment,
when left you this morning you told
me you had to borrow $4,000, and all
day bankers have been telling me that
you asked them to lend out $4,000 for
you"
We'll. Welt" smiled Rockefeller,
"that's fine! I suppose I may safely
assume now that my credit is estab-
iished In this town. I'll Just step out
and borrow that $4,000 l need. Pop.

NEED OF FRESH FOOD SHOWN
Scientific Name Given to Disease
Which Afflicted Members Of
Polar Exploration Party.

In an address lately given before
the Geological Society of France, DR..
jacques Liouville, the physician and
naturalist who accompanied the Pour
quoi-Pas on her antartic expedition,
stated the chief physical troubles with
which the crew had to contend were
three in number, all, in his opinion,
springing from the lack of fresh food.
He therefore terms this polar malady
1.-The disease Of conserved food" The
malady comprised symptoms OF
scurvy, polar anaemia and severe
frost bites or chilblains, which fire.
quently bled constantly. The under
lying cause of all the affections Is an
alteration In the chemical compost
ton Of the blood-or "dyscrasia." The
heart functioned badly, and the pa
tents suffered from terrible shortness
Of breath, frequent drowsiness, and
oedema of the lower extremeties.
They were easily exhausted and I'M
able to march, while the slightest
movement brought on intense palpita-
ton. However, all these morbid
symptoms disappeared within ten days
when fresh meat was obtainable, and
did not appear again after the fresh
wild celery obtained at TERRA del
Fuego had been enjoyed for some
time. Dr. Liouville took'a just pride
In the fact that this was the first
polar expedition which ever restored
all its members to their homes in a
state of perfect health. He had three
surgical cases to handle. Recovery
was highly satisfactory, which he as
cribes partly to the entire absence OF
pathogenic bacteria and partly to the
fact that there was not trace Of al
coholism in the patients.-Scientifc

Why We Have No Paris.

There can never be in the United
States real Paris Of America until
we shall get ranks and orders Of no.
bility, and that will only be when our
republic shall develop into a grand i'm
perial nation. Under a newly acquir-
ed emperor a titled class would fol-
low as matter of course, and the cas-
lest way to get 1t would be to sell the
titles. Ten million dollars would buy
a dukedom. 100000 the title of
count, and 100000 that of baron.
In the beginning Of old world nobility
titles were granted by the sovereign
for eminent services, but when such
a system is started in a great country
like ours the simplest way would be to
establish an aristocracy Of wealth. i
Until then our great metropolitan
cities will never be more than mere
centers OF business and capital.-New
Orleans Picayune.
