TALKS ON THRIFT.
The Saving Habit and the Cost of
Living.

"Economizing for the purpose of being
Independent is one of the sonudest indi
cations OF manly character. 1t is what
we save rather than what we earn that
insures competence for the future =
Stephen Girard.
Assuming that you are thrifty and are
saving money for the proverbiaI rainy
day. you undoubtedly know Just how
much YOU have laid aside for that pur-
pose. But do you know what it is really
worth?
As matter of fact, if you have been
building up savings bank account for
a number of years and now have, say,
$500 in it. are you aware of the fact that
the money is worth good deal less than
the same amount ten or fifteen years
ago?
The increased cost of living has Great
ed an increased need for saving to meet
the actual expense of everyday life-the
bills of the butcher, baker and the can
dlestick makerand because the buying
power of the dollar has decreased to such
an extent that one must save more than
formerly in order to accomplish as much
in the way of accommodating COM
petence.
It is true that in the past decade and
a half the cost of practically everything
the average family uses has gone up at
least onc-hslf. OF course, wages and sal
aries have likewise increased to some ex-
tent, but not in proportion to the higher
cost of living.
So if you saved 5000 annually ten
years ago, you ought to save $500 year
now to be doing as well. In short, there
ought to be an effort on the part of
everyone to readjust his living expenses,
in view of the new conditions, so that ne
saves an amount not Just nominally the
same as that he used to save in year
when his dollar would buy more, but also
the same.
And if you can save more than you
did, both nominally and relatively, so
much the better.

MRS. DORIS WRITINGS.
Probably Will Be Published Is Announce
ment Just Made

iutht just maui,
Rutland, Mach l3.-That the un'
published writings of Mrs. Julia c. r
Dorr, Vermont's poet, who died January
is, last, at her Rutland home, The
Naples, are soon to be presented to the
world, has been announced as very prob
able by Mrs. Zulma DE Lacy Steele OF
Brooklyn, \. Y. Mrs. DORIS daughter,
who is to arrange the work with the
publishers, Charles Scribner's Sons.
The world OF letters aud especially
Vermont has been anxious TO learn when
Mrs. DORIS later writings would appear
and as the publishers have been unable
to answer this question, Mrs. Steele, in
response to an appeal, has said: Il hope
we may have another volume like the
complete edition which shall include the
two small books, "Afterglow" and Be-
You'd the Sunset" and such poems as
have been written since the last book was
issued. | have not had time to take
up the matter yet but hope to do SO
before long.
Among the many poems written after
the appearance of Beyond the Sunset
is sonnet, 20 Strong Young Runner"
which was the last thing Mrs Dorr did,
even completing it after the beginning
of her last illness, which is said to be
the greatest of her efforts in this diff
cult form of verse, for which her power
was most celebrated.
Most Of Mrs. DORIS earlier books are
now out OF print, THE Complete Edi
ton" "A Cathedral Pilgrimage" and
Bermuda being the only ones that
may be left.

5000 MEN FIGHT A
 FIERCE FOREST FIRE.
Blazing on Three Sides of Mountain
 Three Villages Threatened.

San Francisco, July 9-Forest fires are blazing fiercely tonight on three sides of Mount Tamalpais, a landmark of California and playground and park of all the cities clustered about San Francisco bay. Three villages are threatened. The mountain was cloaked today by white smoke which streamed across the bay like a wind blown surf but as the darkness fell the mountain blazed above the bay and ocean like an enormous beacon, iI- luminating the sky for miles.
 Three thousand soldiers, sailors, naval apprentices, forest rangers, mill itia men and volunteer fire fighters are fighting the flames and the wo- men in the threatened territory are working as hard as the men.
 Shops are closed and business is at a standstill throughout the threaten ed section. Colonel George Bell, Tenth United States Infantry, assist ed by District Chief Dubois of the forestry service. is directing the fight. Thus far there has been no loss of fife and little damage to private prop erty, although the possible damage is enormous and imminent.

A LONG SIEGE ON
 WITNESS STAND.
Comedy Continues Testimony Against
 Supreme Court Judge.

Albany. N. Y. July 9.-From 10 o'clock this morning until nearly 10 o'clock tonight John Connolly contin- ued his testimony into the inquiry be- ing held by the joint legislative, judi ctary committee into charges of inn proper conduct on the part of Supreme Court Justice Daniel F. Cohalan, Ex- hausted by the ceaseleSs flow of ques- tions, especially the bombardment by CohalanS counsel on cross examine tion which set in immediately after the midday recess, the witness was per- mitted to leave the stand until the re- suming of the inquiry tomorrow morn- ing.
 Throughout the ordeal Connolly pre- served a fairly calm demeanpr, al- though at times he betrayed nervous ness, especially on questions as to con- f1icting statements and testimony that would not square with certain docu- ments which entered into his dealings with the accused jurisr.
 John B. StanchfeId who conducted the cross examination, pressed his dd- vantage at such periods by a fusillade of interrogations that appeared to con- fuse the witness. The lawyer made Connolly admit that there were serious discrepancies between his testimony and certain documents that entered into the ease, but the witness took ref uge in the claim that he acted through out on the advice of his counsel and that these discrepancies were technical rather than deliberate falsifcations.

COOK STOVES FOR sALEMs POOR Provision in Will of Thomas w. Sweet
 ser. Made Years Ago.

tion under the will of Thomas ". Sweetser. who died fifty nine wears ago, will be given in the Essex probate court July 23, and at that time one of the unusual provisions of the will that of providing the poor of Salem with cook stoves. will be given close attention. The hearing was asked for by the heirs, who petition that the trustees be given authority to sell real estate in Boston.
 The peculiar provisions of the will had been forgotten. In 1t it was sup ulated that $1O,00O be paid to his aa- tive city, that this be put on interest at six per cent. forever and $500 be spent annually in buying stoves and utensils for the poor, if his estate amounted to $30, 1000 or more. The es- tate now inventories much in excess of this sum.
 Trustees, of whom the mayor shall be one. must supervise the admins tration of the charity, according to the terms of the gift, and must keep on hand supply of stoves of different sizes, such as large ones for large ten ements and small ones for smaller ten- ements. Then too, tho trustees must keep on hand enough funnel for all the stoves. The will says that trustees If the cook stove fund must be eleeted each January by the city council. The board must consist of tho mayor as chairman. and two aldermen and one member of the city council from each ward. If the contents of the will Weaa made public dfty-nin years ago no official notice was ever taken and the gift was forgotten,
 It Is understood that If the city eoun- Gil should accept this beduest fk would be necessary that the probate court be asked to modify tts terms to make 1t practical.
