Science Of ! Management.

Management, or the science Of exc
cution and administration, is some
thing which requires specific and
distinct training, not simply superior
degree Of skill in the performance OF
subordinate tasks; and our varied re-
sources will not be utilized to their
proper and full extent until this Is
generally and completely realized. The
ideal manager should have a. broad,
liberal education rather than inten'
siye experience in any one line, such
as financier, salesman. producer or &C &C
countant. 1t is the writer5s belief that
no adequate foundation for the work
is now being laid in any educational
institution IN this country Here In.

Window Curtains.

Two kinds Of curtains at window
are not by any means necessity, but
in almost all cases such an arrange
ment is extremely attractive, says the
Ladies Home Journal. Curtains OF
silk. linen, .cretonne or madras provide
the note of color that is desired in the
scheme Of decoration In the room; and
as rule supply adequate window fur
nishing; but thin curtains Of net,
iscrim or muslin next to the pane are
always a charming addition and have
the added value OF preserving uni.
formity in the appearance Of the. win
dows from without. In cases where
curtains Of scrim or muslin are all
that is required for. the decoration of
room such curtains should not be
used. "a 65f.&5 81 ss554 &; SgsSs ss.F

said: when the senate investigated
the charges made against Senator Ste

in the campaign before the primary
amounted to a little less than two dol

campaign in the interest Of Roosevelt
before the New York primaries, which
elected delegates to the national con-

Double Burden on the People.
The conclusion reached by the In

on the wool schedule is that many OF
it's rates are prohibitive and that the
cost of producing wool and wooden
goods is higher in the United States
than in any other country. Naturally,
the consumer carries a burden caused
In part by actual differences in the
necessary conditions Of production,
and in part the result Of excessive
tariff barriers against the importation
of wool and woolens.
