Currency Measure, Safe

Opponents of the administration
currency measure have begun to real
ize the hopelessness of their fight. A
bill will be passed by Congress at the
present session, and it may follow SUBJ
stantially that brought before the
House by Chairman Glass of the COM
mittee on banking and currency.
Mr.. Ragsdale will continue his bat
tie for an agricultural currency
when the democratic caucus is called,
and Mr.. Henry is. expected to have his
sore toe on exhibition. But their con-
tentions will not be regarded serious
ly. Mr.. Underwood continues his hold
upon the majority, and the administra-
ton will have votes to spare when the
question of making the bill party

THE THOUGHTFUL EMPLoYE

Fro the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
st. Louis is making a strong effort
to abolish tipping, and a review of
the situation carries the impression
that society in the Mound City is di-
vided into four classes:
Those who give tips.
Those who take EN-
Those who refuse em.
Those who don't offer 'em.
Which recalls an incident that hap
pened in a Cleveland garage not long
ago
A patron, feeling that one of the em-
ployes had done him a favor. fumbled
in his pocket for coin.
He noticed that the man backed away
slowly. and he followed him up. just
as he found a quarter the employs
backed squarely against a pillar and
stood there. The patron handed him
the coin.
''Thank YOU the employe said Then
he stepped aside and pointed over his
shoulder.
II didn't want you to compromise
yourself, sir" he said.
There was a square card nailed to
the post This Is the message it bore:
Patrons are urgently requested not
to tip the employees
