beyond this point was slow at first but now that the system of administra- tion is well in hand, designations are proceeding as rapidly as Investigations can be made, instruction given and supplies furnished. There is no long CT any disposition to hang back-the system is demonstrated success.
 It is the intention of the board of trustees, just as soon as they get around to it, to devise a plan for an extension of the postal bank system in the larger cities. At the present time Chicago, New York and other of the larger cities have only one bank.
 The next move will be to permit the branch post offices, of which there is at least one in all large cities in prox- unity to each branch of foreign popu1a- tien, to receive deposits and also tc redeem deposit certificates.

Postal Savings Bank Proves a Success

ID Jan. 1 the trustees of the postal O savings banks expect to have a postal savings bank established in ev-
 cry first, second and third class post office in the entire country. All of the first and second class offices have already been so designated. and the designation of third class offices is on and will continue at the rate of 100 day until exhausted. This means that more than 2,000 postoffices in the United States are now receiving de- posits in their postal banks for which the government pays 2 per cent per annum interest. or. if . the depositor chooses to buy government bonds with his deposits, 21a per cent. The off cials in charge of the work in the post office department know that the sys- tenn has been a tremendous success, far exceeding thier expectations, and they are bending their time and ener- gy for the present to an extension of the benefits of the service.
 On Jan. 3 last. the postal savings bank system of the United States was started by the designation of one sec ond class office in each of the AS states and territories of the country as a postal savings bank. - Progress

 Bailey saw"'Willie" at Third street and Washington avenue. He wore blue overalls, black sack coat and brown cap and stopped at the corner to light a cigarette. The smallness of the mouth which held the cigarette first arrested Dailey's attention. Then he observed the small white hand which handled the match. Willie held the match between the tips of the thumb and index finger at the ex- treme end and drew it across a brick wall with a long sweep of the arm. It did not light until it had been scratched several. times. Then, in stead of leaving the cigarette in the mouth and puffing it into light, the smoker held it at arms length until it. became ignited and choked:- and eoughed when the ppffing began.

FOE OF FOOD EXPERT WILEY


 According to the evidence before the house investigation, Solicitor George F. McCabe is the man who has been trying to oust Dr. Wiley from the bureau of chemistry of the agricultural department. Although he has been the active adversary of pr. Wiley for a long time, it is only re- gently that McCabe has been brought further into the limelight. When the pure food and drugs act went on the statute books McCabe became "so- hcitor'' of the agricultural depart ment. Congress specified that the bu- reau of chemistry should be the arbi- ter of questions arising under the pure food and drugs act. Wiley was head of the bureau. But McCabe said in effect that the solicitor" of the department, the position he was oc- cupying, should be the actual arbiter of the questions involved in the act. That was the beginning of the strug- gle for supremacy. Young McCabe is the son of railroad engineer of
