just when Mr.. Wilson said this or
where Tx said it, is a matter Of small
moment. The words are accredited to
him, and they are probably his. In ut
tering them he brought his philosophy
uncomfortable close to some of the
absurdities we are all so much in the
habit of uttering.
OF late years we have been much in
the wa yOf saying something like this:
Never mind the mans political
theories; what of the man? If the man
is honest that is all we should ask. Let
us vote for the man. Let us nave the alb
s~Olutely honest man in office"
Having uttered this sort of thing a
few times-Or even one time-we look
around for the applause Of the bystand-
ers and perhaps cast a glance toward
the empyrean to catch, if possible, an
approving smile from some passing
angel.
Yet, taken up one side and down the
other, that sort of thing is about as
idiotic as anything a man can utter.
Over and over again attention is
called to the fact that the fatal men i'm
this world are the men described by
Wilson as the strong men who are
wrong: the man Of strong char
acter, great earneStneSS, indomitable
resolution and power to persuade others.
who is nevertheless fatally bent on some
exploit which will work infinite harm
to others.

TO PARENTS OF
SCHOOL CHILDREN

There has been considerable talk of
late, in reference to the condition of
the eyes of the school children in our
city.
Those who have had the investiga-
tion in charge claim that at least 70
per cent of the pupils of our schools
are in need of glasses. We are not iG
position to verify this statement, and,
furthermore, we know that there is
harm done in putting glasses on the
growing boy or girl who does not alb.
solutely need them. On the other hand,
it, il a serious mistake for parents to
let this matter go unheeded when the
need Of glasses is actually indicated.
The mission of proper glasses is to
correct the errors of the eye, and the
time to do this, so as to affect pcrma.

CASE FOR CIVIL ACTION
SAYS ASSISTANT PROSECUTOR
Fact That Day Failed to Settle with
Dodd Before Leaving City Does
Not Make Him Criminal

Foreseeing a case parallel to that in
which it cost the state $50 to settle IN
the Justice court recently a little row
between two men in Woodburn, Deputy
District Attorney Keyes yesterday at
terpoon threw cold water on case
wherein Frank Day was being tried on
a charge of embezzling funds alleged TO
have been the property of one Fred
Dodd. a Greek lunch wagon proprietor
of this city.
According to the testimony intro
duced by the complainant, Day left the
city with money belonging to Dodd,
but the defense s evidence had ten
dencv to show that the prosecuting wit
ness had given the defendant the priv
ilege of purchasing fruit to sell on the
street under Dodd s name and that
Dodd failed to show that Day had
either feloniously or wilfully embezzled
the money. Deputy District Attorney
Keves frankly advised the court in his
argument that Dodd was attempting to
prosecute Day on criminal charge
when he should have brought q civil
action to get justice and that although
evidence showed that Day left the city
without making a proper settlement
with the complainant, it did not consti'
tue a crime. To hold him must mean
costs of several hundred dollars,
Former Wife Loyal.
Among the witnesses called in Day Is
behalf was Mrs. Williams, the defend
ant S former wife. Mrs. Williams, O
little woman with a careworn look, took
the stand and after informing the court
that she was formerly the wife of Day
testified that her former husband was
not in error in the case in question anC
stated that while she was separated
from Day, she was doing everything
she could to help him along in thc
world. She said that Day sent hel
money with which to pay his debts il
the city and that she pleaded will
Dodd not to act rashly, that she wOulC
see that he was paid every cent tina
Day owed him.
Dodd's testimony was conflicting anC
several times he attempted 10 inter
fere with the defendant while the lat
ter was testifying and was cautioned
to keep still by the court.

down artist who had specialized in faking old Dutch masterpieces. When this story leaked out a great outcry was raised and the press severely de- plored the ignorance of the members of the commission who wasted the public money in acquiring worthless limitations of old masters The case was brought before parliament and the minister of public instruction ap- pointed special commission to exam inc the painting. Surely enough within week Professor Cavenaghi submitted the painting to chemical test and ascertained that it was mod ern and consequently faked. The dealer was threatened with criminal proceedings, but he easily proved that he was in good faith, refused to di- vulge the name of the painter who sold him the painting on the plea that this was professional secret and of fered to take back the picture and refund to the government the $2,000 paid for it.
 The scandal has been consequently hushed up, but, strange to relate, the dealer has not lost any money on the deal.

Mill Girls at Lancashire and York. shire Dislike to Wear Clogs and
 ShaWis of Factory.

London.-There is a great dearth or operatives for the cotton and Woolen nils of Lancashire and York shire. The cause of this is the grow ing dislike of girls to appear in the 1mmemorial dress Of the factory girl clogs and shawls.
 The Lancashire lassies" point to their sisters who work at the shops or in the office, although at much lower wage, who are able to wear costumes, brightly trimmed hats and gloves and shoes.
 The work of the mill girls discour- ages any attempt at smart or even neat appearance. The wearing of clogs instead of shoes and shawls in stead of hats causes the mill girls to be humbled in the eyes of other girls whose occupation permits them to dress more attractively, although they earn only few shillings week ly as against the $5 or more earned by the despised and rejected factory operative.
 The mill managers have met to dis. cuss how mill work for girls could be made more attractive, for it is un- doubted that if the girls renounce the factories nothing remains but to import foreign labor. One manager
