The Budget.

The United States is the only great ma
ton whose government is operated with
out a budget This fact seems to be more
striking when 1t is considered that bud
gets and budget procedures are the out
growth of democratic doctrines and have
had an important part in the development
Of modem constitutional rights. The
American commonwealth has suffered
much from irresponsibillty on the part OF
its governing agencies. The constitution
al purpose of budget is to make gov
ernment responsive to public opinion and
responsible for its acts.

The use Of equipment is matter which
also has been Investigated Up to the
present time this investigation has been
in the main confined to the subject Of
electric lighting. The government pays
over 100000 per year for electric current;
il has made large capital outlays for wir-
ing and fixtures. With the increasing de-
mands in many buildings the present
equipment is taxed to its limit and If
the present methods are continued much
of this wiring must be done over; In
many places employees are working at
great physical disadvantage, due to in
adequate and improper lighting, and
thereby with reduced efficiency. In every
place where the inquiry has been con-
Quoted it appears that there is large
waste; that without the cost Of rewir-
ing. simply by giving proper attention to
location of lights and the use of proper
lamps and refiectors, the light efficiency
at points where needed may be much in
creased and the cost OF current reduced
from 30 to 60 per cent. Other inquiries
into the use which is being made of prop
critics and equipment are contemplated
which promise even larger results.

Perhaps you are troubled with a
dry, yellow and wrinkled skin? Did

facial skin so It win not be a con-
slant source OF modification.
Relief Will come when you learn to
massage. Scientific friction with
soothing and nourishing cream not
only whitens and softens the skin,
but banishes the swarming wrinkles.
The home body can get along very
nicely indeed with the knowledge or a
few simple massage rules.
Il The first thing TO remember is that
massage will both reduce and create
fesA. II all depends on how you
massage. Strenuous rolling and
pinching OF the flesh between the
fingers will slowly dissolve the fatty
tissues, while delicate smoothing OF
the flesh with the fingertips or palms
will inevitably cause fat TO form.
II is unwise TO knead a refractory
skin ofteuer than once every "a hours.
and then only for 10 minutes. Too
much. massage is as bad as too little.
Before attacking your wrinkles you
should wash your face thoroughly In
hot. soapy water. and then pat 1t dry
with a ball OF absorbent or old cotton.
Al cream lar containing a plentiful
supply of good cream should be WITH
In easy reach.
After the cream has been spread
thinly over the face and neck start
operations by attacking that unsight-

POTTSvILLE. Pa, April lS-Pathe-
tic was the advertisement, few days
ago. of Mrs Henry Walker, a widow
OF Tamaqua, who offered her infant
baby for sale, ascribing as her reason
that she was too poor to provide for
II. The advertisement stated that she
would gladly part with the child for
it's own sake, IL she could get a home
for II.
Many offered to purchase the babe
and II was finally turned over TO a
woman who paid the mother $40 for
II. The purchaser never intended TO
keep the child, but succeeded in
arousing action on the part OF several
friends charitably inclined.
After keeping the child for a few
hours, II was returned TO the over
loved mother, with the excuse that Il
cried too much for the new owner TO
keep &C. Provision was made for
good home for both mother and baby.

L.
Out of the fog and the shrouded night
Leaps a shape of terror and fright,
Rising hideous up the deep
To break with a shrek o'er the towers of sleep
And reeing death rears over the foam:
II give We the dungeons OF death for home
The great ice hulk with a sudden wrath
Grins with hate from its slnken path
And smes the palace of wind and wave,
To plunge it deep in the eering grave.
Out OF the chaos the recking wall
OF men and women whose faces pale
And whose hearts grow cold In the face of death
shrreJeo and torn in the monsters breath!
And the rich mans diamonds dust
To laugh in his face and mock his lust;
His cleaning treasures will buy
glimpse Of the sun in the next days sky.
The peasant mother wakes from the dream
That carried her where the new lands CLEAN,
And gives her again to strong mans heart
The dream that the terror rives apart
Out of the deep with death the wheel
And God looks down the awful day,
That mixes the human in common clay.
AS man grows mad in that awful hour
And rises up to God-like power.
Sure and still in the face OF death
IN, Men smile and say with their last pure breath
Are cutched to follow the hearts commands
Rich man and poor man by his side,
The toll and tenderness divide
The little child at his mothers breast
And mother and child safely 'er
The hungry sea to -gfrt shore,
And the men made brothers in sudden DOOM
Stand hand in hand the brink of the tomb
And God looks down to see the clod
y That he made man, worthy of God
Tears for the lonely hearts bereft
Tears for the women and children left,
Tears for the dead In sea-made grave,
Whose requiem sobs DER the wind-swept wave
But cheers with the tears--for poor sake
Cheers through the tears. though the break
Cheers for the manhood born to be
Bright as the stars Of eternity
Up with cheers through the ransomed air.
Cheers grown pure the hush Of prayer,
That man In the face of death rise,
With steady hand and unhnching eyes
And thrill TO the dream that made him
