WOMEN IN THE RED CROSS.

Lack of preparation for and a clear
definition of the duties of voluntary
aid workers have frequently severely
initiated against their success. The
American Red Cross has lately set
tied on plan which will correct this
condition in at least one important
respect. This has been done by the
organization of the so-called Wo-
mems First Aid Detachment New
as these detachments are to this coun-
try they are by no means new in GER
tain other nations where universally
they have had the cOuntenance and
support of the highest authority and
the most distinguished people. To
take only one example: the Czarina is
at the head Of this movement in Rus
sia.
The purpose of these detachments
with US, which while similar is not
Identical with that in other countries,
Is to afford women instruction in first
aid, home nursing, cooking and diet
cooking, the prepartion Of rooms,
buildings, etc, for the reception Of
the III and injured, with. in some in
stances, poet-graduate courses in per-
sonal hygiene and sanitation More

THE MONEY GETTER.

He never romps the children on his
knees.
It's all the same to him if skies
are gray.
To him a shady oak is just tree,
A holiday is just a wasted day.
He doesn't know a think of laughing
streams,
on fishing trips he's ne'er been
known to go,
He never. builds castle in his dreams,
But people say he gets the money,
though.
He seldom spends an evening with
his books,
He's never read the masters of the
past;
He only knows two speeds-the slow
and fast.
And by choice he always takes the
last.
The finer shades of manhood reach
him not,
The sweeter depths of life he does
not know;
He seems to have no secret sacred
spot,
But people say he gets the money,
though.
He cannot talk of music or of art,
He never never gave a rose bush
any care;
His life is spent forever on the mart
Where only cries of commerce fill
the air.
He can talk of dollars with will,
His eyes grow bright if you but
mention gold,
Tis true he fills his money bags, but
still,
ia rather keep my day dreams and
grow old.

MY SHADOW.

1 have a little shadow that goes in
and out with me,
And what can be the use OF him Is
more than can see.
He is very very like me from heels
up to the head;
And | see him jump before me when
| jump into my bed.
The funniest thing about him is the
way he likes to grow
Not at all like proper children, which
is always very slow;
For he sometimes shoots up taller,
like an India rubber ball,
And he sometimes gets so little that
there's none OF him at all.
He hasn't got a notion of how chill
dren ought to play,
And can only make a fool of me in
every sort of way.
He stays on close beside me, he's a
coward you can see;
I'd think shame to stick to nursie as
that shadow sticks to me.
One morning, very early before the
sun was up,
rose and found the shining dew on
every buttercup;
But my laby little shadow, like an ar
rant sleepy head,
Had stayed at home behind me and
was fast asleep in bed.

York World expressed view that has
long been taken by
DO We Want thoughtful progress
Government BY sives the country
Big Business? over. The idea set
forth is that the real
substantial forces back of the Roose-
welt candidacy are not progressive al
all but reactionary. 1t is an attempt
TO fasten upon the country nothing
less than George w. Perkins theory
Of government by big business.
The World editorial says:
THE third-term ambitions of Mr..
Roosevelt, who refuses to retire from
the presidency, and the plan of Mr..
Perkins to subordinate congress and
the judiciary to a court of big busi-
ness, can find no worthy representa-
tive in any of the parties now in the
field.
Thus the new party exhibits at
once the controlling motives of i'm
perialism and reaction. 1t is not pro-
gressive democracy. It is democracy
in retreat, seeking refuge in the arms
of the strong man. 1t is not reforma-
tory in any sense. 1t contemplates
the abandonment of reform and a
surrender to the very interests, rep
resented by George w. Perkins, late
of ]. p. Morgan & Co., which have
constantly resisted reform.
when Oyster Bay praises the ex-
tortionate tariff and demands the re-
zeal of the Antitrust law, the voice
is Mr.. Roosevelts but the sentiments
sIe Mr.. Perkins's. When Messrs.
Perkins, Munsey and Mccormick in
sist upon a third term, they show that
Wall street, the steel trust and the
harvester trust know their man and
are not ungrateful.
What the new party is to attempt
IS a change in the form of the ma
tional government. If our would-be
dictators, political and financial, were
already omnipotent, could they find
an easier way to divert attention from
the reforms that they fear?"
Colonel Roosevelt's own utterances
show this view of his candidacy to be
well founded. He still favors a tariff
for protection or in other words for
special privilege. He wants to re-
peal the antitrust law and rely upon .
regulation of trusts by the govern
ment. Furthermore he wants to be
the government and the steel trust,
the greatest octipus of them all, also
wants him in office again.
This being the case the vital ques-
ton at issue between Governor Will
son and Colonel Roosevelt is whether
in curbing the predatory interests and
bringing about economic justice the
work shall be headed by man who
stands conspicuously independent Of
the forces of big business and who
seeks to serve the whole republic or
by man selected by and backed by |
the interests to be curbed. Shall the |
people regulate the trusts or shall
the trusts manage the thing them
selves. Shall the master select the
bride for the unruly horse or shall |
the horse 40 the choosing?
1t is a question the people will
have to decide in November and II
will be the most momentuous issue |
since the civil war. What makes the
thing harder is the fact Messrs. Per-
kins, Mccormick ct all have a popu-
Tar idol as their candidate. They |
were fortunate in being able to get |
a man who is liked by the populace |
and who at the same time has always |
been very kind to the steel trust and
will again handle things their way II

ed what many believed to be true
before. that Champ Clark is more of
a politician than a statesman. He
proved himself to be a political trader
and the worst feature of it all was
that he let his organization be used
to nominate Parker for temporary
chairman when adherence to prin-
ciple should have held him firmly in
line for Bryan. After that it would
have been suicide for the party to
have named Clark for its nominee. If
there are Missourians who still resent
what was done at Baltimore it is be-
cause they think with their hearts in

 Adriatic did not mind the ship being detained twenty-four hours at Sandy Hook by the fog because George Lemon of Fairbanks, Alaska, said to be of great wealth, supplied them with choice vintage wines until politely re- quested by Capt. B. F. Hayes, k. N. R., to desist. When MT. Lemon was not engaged in buying wine for the crew or his fellow passengers he passed away his time in composing songs which he sang at night for the edification of his friends in the lounge. His most popu- lar ballad was "The Garden Gate at Sea-" and "The Mermaid's Revenge;'a Tale of the Deep" He gave handful of gold coins to the leader of the fire mems stingaree band for their serenade. When the Adriatic came alongside the pier, MT. Lemon, who is 6 feet 4 inches, and broad in proportion, walked along the deck, preceded by steward carry ing an American flag over his shoulder and over whom he sprinkled dollar bills while he sang "Yankee Doodle" The sad feature was that MT. Lemon would not allow the steward to stop and pick up the largesse, which was grabbed by his shipmates, who prom ised to divide. The Adriatic brought over S4 4,250,000 in gold bullion from London, which was the last shipment of SS,OO0,000 made to local banks New York Times.
 In discussing the question whether there has been permanent change in climatic conditions in Alaska, the Se- attle P.-I. says: In Alaska they are discussing the question whether there has been a permanent change in eli matic conditions in that territory. Last winter was one of unprecedented mildness, the more notable for the fact that in the central portion of the con- tinent and along the Atlantic seaboard the winter was one of unusual severity. Now the report comes that the present autumn season is even milder than that of last year. Warm days have con tinued even in the interior of Alaska and the British Yukon we'll along to- ward the middle of October, time when, in former days, the country was sealed by ice. Along the coast it is re- ported that ancient glaciers receded during the past year with heretofore unheard of rapidity, their reduction in size being so marked that, at the pres- ent rate of diminution, 1t is but a mat ter of few years before they will en- tirely disappear each summer. It is hardly worth while to advance any theory of permanent climatic changes on the experience of single year, or even two or three years. But there are already data to warrant some inquiry into the cause, if there is indeed cause which promises to have continuing effect. Weather observers and scien- tific men are never inclined to accept theories based upon the contention that there has been permanent change in any of the great natural phenomena, so they dismiss ofhand the theory that there has been change in the course of the black current of Japan, bringing it nearer the coast, thus moderating the winter tempera- ture of Alaska. But the numerous and severe volcanic disturbances during the past years might possibly have had such an effect.

While the United States has taken steps to protect the seals in the waters of the North, no attempt has been made to regulate the slaughter of the whales. The early extermination of whales and seals was predicted at a congress of German doctors and scien- tists recently held in Munich. Prof. Sarasen, of Basel, showed that in 1910 single seal fishing company had brought back from Kerguelan islands a,500 tons of oil made from the sea ele. plant, while in the same year four ships killed HOO of these animals.
