footstooI Church.

Mr.. Raymond Unwin told story re-
lating to the building of st. Johns
church, South Square, Westminster.
The architect, he said, was reputed to
have worried Queen Anne about the
design. Her majesty at length losing pa.
tience kicked her footstool over and re-
marked in anger: Build it like that"
The architect fulfilled the royal wishes
and the church was built as it stood
today-with corners protruding up
ward like the four legs of a STOOL

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
Food Prices in Mexico.

The City of Mexico has a municipal
market. and. according to a correspon-
dent of the New York Evening Post.
the citizens of that city are not worri-
ed much about the cost of living.
The correspondent quotes some prices
that are decidedly interesting as COM
pared with those prevailing today in
the cities of the United States. The
best cuts of beef, he says. retaiIs at s
and cents q pound; bread sells at 2
l-2'cents loaf; flour may be had at
from rs cents to 81 for fifty pounds
and corn meal from l to 2 cents a
pound. Another good feature of life
in Mexico City is that the servants
work for small wages and "stan
hitched. The best of them it is stat
ed. can be hired for So to SIS a month,
and they remain in one family fifteen
to twenty years. All are numbered
and tagged by the Government, so as
to be traceable by the police
The Evening Post correspondent
gives the municipal market credit for
the prevalence of such low prices for
the necessities of life. ''The buyer
deals directly with 1.-The producer. ex-
cept in the few cases Of scoffee, sugar.
salt. pepper and like staples" OF
course the municipal market is not
responsible for the satisfactory status
of the servant Eouestion nor for the
fact that "a whole house rents for
from SIT to Sl8 month";" and that "a
taxicab ride anywhere in the city costs
only Is to 20 cents" Nevertheless
the municipal market is the one best
nethd of reducing the cost of living
in Mexico or anywhere else.
The average citizen of the United
States would not care to live In Mexi.
CO under any conditions. AS matter
OF fact he would rather rustic for q
living in this country than accept free
board and lodging in Mexico City if il
were rendered along with free ticket
to that land of perennial political tur.
moil. But "the proof of the pudding
is in the eating thereof" and the
story told by the Evening POSTS ennis
sary goes to prove that the municipa
market is good thing for the ulti
mate consumer in Mexico as it is else
where.

Roman Heating System.

Like many other Roman houses that
have been unearthed in England, one
recently brought to light was heated
by a system called "hypocaust" The
entire basement was one big furnace,
from which fiues ascended, built into
the walls. A wood fire was kept in
the basement. the fuel being fed in
from an outside annex, through an
arch in the wall. The house recently
dug out is in a state of excellent
preservation.

Goat Proved Poor Sailor.

While man temporarily abandoned
his skiff along the banks Of the Ches,
ter river in Pennsylvania the other day
a goat jumped into the craft. The
animal chewed the shore line. The
skiff swung around in the current and
was some distance away when the
owner returned. The goat ran from
stern to Prov and back again until
one of its hoofs punctured the craft
The skiff quickly filed with water and
sank, taking the goat with it. The
goat was drowned.

Hitting Hard.

GovernorlWilson delivered telling
blow to Koosevelr's preposterous claim
to leadership of the real progressive
thought of the country when, at Sioux
City. he showed athat the Roosevelt
plan for regulating" trusts, instead
of preventing them, originated with
Gary and Perkins. These gentlemen
are not interested in the people. The
inter ests of Gary and Perkins are
wrapped up in trusts and Mr.. Roose-
welt is their agent to carry out their
plan.
Governor Wilson'S also right in oppo-
sing the tariff board as ga motion for
a continuance. The existing board
has already been used by the president
as an excuse for delay and this excuse
has cost the country several hunded
millions. The tariff board, however
honestly intended by some, is farce
and fraud. After postponing action
until the board reported the Republi-
cans would not accept any findings
that justified reductions and the Dem
ocrats would not accept any findings
that justified existing rates. Congress
and congress alone can settle the tariff
| question.
