JUST THROWING OUT A HINT
the Needy, He Could Use
Part Of It

The children OF a Boston Sunday
school class had contributed their
pennies for weeks to a fund which
was to be devoted to charitable pWr.
poses, and on the day when they were
to decide on the matter Of its dis
tribution each child was called upon
to express an opinion as to how 1t
should be spent.
The teacher explained to them that
there were several charities which
would be glad to receive the fund,
either in Boston or among the for.
eign missions. She had impressed
upon them, however, that the money
might be spent to good advantage
among the sick and needy children
Of their own parish. Several bright
speeches on the subject had been
made, when one seven-year-old boy
arose and, evidently bearing in mind
the teachers remarks about charity
beginning at home, said:
Il want you to know that l have
put q good many pennies in that
box" and then. after some delay
and I've got a terrible cold myself"

MEXICAN ARMY NEAR REVOLT
Huerta's Latest Coup Will Test Loyalty
to Danger Point.

Mexico City.-There mas been endless
speculation here regarding the effect of
Provisional President Huerta's coup
d'etat. Many appear TO believe that the
logical result will be a split in the army,
watch they assert has been held to-
gether only by the force of Gen. Huerta's
personality. They argue that there has
been dissatisfaction over Huerta's course
in general and that this will test loyalty
to the danger point. They look COR
startling developments in the near fu-
ture.
On the other hand, there is a large
element which believes President Huerta
took the only possible course and ex-
presses wonder that he had not taken the
step long ago. Huerts's friends say it
is no secret that had the deputies be-
lieved any substantial part of the army
would stand with them, they would have
overridden Huerta and taken the reins
of government wholly in their hands.

Danderine and carefully draw it
through your hair. taking one small
strand at a time The effect Is amaz-
ing-your hair will be light, fluffy and
wavy, and have an appearance Of
abundance; al Incompatible luster,

as any-that it has been neglected or
injured by careless treatment-that's
all-you surely can have beautiful hair
and lots of it if you will just try a lit

RECESS OPPOSED
BY PRESIDENT
ALL HE WANTS is CONTINUOUS
WORK ON CURRENCY BILL.
IS NOT FASTENING MEASURE
Members Have Varying Views but They
Are Trying to Frame a Bill That
Will Be Acceptable to Ma
joity of Senate.

Washington President Wilson let it
be known that he did not favor a recess
Of congress at this time, but desired con-
tinuous and uninterrupted consideration
of the pending currency bill. Various re-
ports that the president was attempting
to force the senate to act more speedily
than it wished and efforts by some Dem.
ocratic senators to secure a recess I'M.
til November Is while the senate bank
ing and currency committee was at work
on the house bill brought from those
close to the president a Qualification Of
the White House position.
The president, they said, had no idea
OF attempting to fix an arbitrary time
when the currency bill should or should
not be enacted into law. His wish as
expressed throughout his conferences
with senate leaders has been for contin-
uous attention to the currency asu
with the confidence that with concen-
trated effort and study the bill would
be out of the senate before the beginning
of the December session of congress.
While averse to any haste that would
impair the value of currency reform, The
president is anxious that if the senate
can improve upon the house bill it will
proceed to do so. He still believes, how
ever, that all this can be accomplished
during the seven weeks remaining of the
present session.
