dinner which was equal to anything
he could have expected in one of the
best Partisan restaurants. He was so
surprised and pleased that he sent his
thanks and compliments to the chef.
few years later, happening to be In
the same city, he again went to that
restaurant The meal he got was still
far above the average. but was not so
good as before. However. on the occa-
sion of third visit he again tried the
sme place. The food was uninterest-
Ing from the beginning of the meal to
the end.
He asked the head waiter whether
the former chef had left He had not
left, the waiter informed him, and, on
being pressed for an explanation of the
change in the quality Of the meals, he
said:

tinue year after year to play as well

BRISTOW FLAYS ASHURST
Kansas Senator Accuses Latter Of
"Using Public Funds"

A charge that Senator Ashurst of
Arizona used 500 of public funds" to
pay for kilograms that should have
been paid for out of his own pocket,
was made in the United States senate
by Senator Bristow. Senator Ashurst
denied it and Senator Bristow agreed
to produce the kilograms to prove his
charge.
The charge marked the tabling, Al
to 20, of Senator Bristows resolution,
aimed at Secretary Bryan's proposed
six weeks lecture tour. The resolu
tion would have called on President
Wilson to advise the senate what
salary would be sufficient to keep Mr..
Bryan continuously at his post, and
was prompted by the secretarys an
nouncement that he was obliged to
augment his pay of $4,000 a year by
lectures to meet his living expenses.
The debate developed a sharp eX.
change between Senators Bristow ana
Ashurst when the latter read a letter
intended to show that Mr.. Bristow
years ago had expressed a wish to be
an isthmian canal commissioner, with
the suggestion that he need not spend
much time ION the job"

SCIENCE VERSUS RELIGION
Absolute Exists Only in Spiritual Do
main, Says Speaker.


main, Says Speaker.
At the international congress of
religious progress in Paris an ad-
dress was made by Emile Boutroux on
the conciliation of science and re-
ligion. He defined science as not
being something self-existent, COM
plete and finished for all eternity
which man has only to discover as
a hidden treasure is unearthed.
Science is not thing but an activity.
Religion, said the professor, must
be spiritual and inspired solely by the
idea of God and not the idea of any
material interests, for religion is the
affirmation of the insufIiciency of
reality to realize perfection and not of
its sufficiency. Science must be con-
sidered to be the expression of
natures actual state, but not its
eternal, absolute form. No scientific
formula ever claims the value of an
adequate principle independent of
facts. The absolute exists only in the
spiritual domain.

ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK
Dull Season For Business-optimism
in Crop Producing Regions.
nun'S Raviaw Of Trada oove tbic

Duns review OF Trade says this
week:
"The trend of business is still in
the right direction, even though prog
ress is slow. This is ordinarily a dull
season and various restraining factors
curtail activity, yet encouraging fea-
lures are manifest and cheerful views
predominant. In the great crop pro-
ducing regions optimism is general,
owing to the prospect of another pros
porous year on the farms.
Midsummer shutdowns of the steel
mills were of brief duration, as pres
sure for deliveries continues and new
orders are in well maintained volume.
More activity is apparent in pig iron,
the buying movement broadening un-
der the stimulus of lower quotations"
