MELISSA FEARS A TOO DURABLE

Mrs. Merriwid came into the room

was unwinding skein of bright blue

was a good deal Of color in Mrs. Mer-

GIRL PISTOL USER
PUZZLES INQU|RERS.
New York Social Workers and
Police Doubt Story Told by
Margaret Lima.

NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-Social workers
as wei: as the police were today puzzled
by little Margaret Lima, fifteen. who is
helc, charged with shooting and seri-
ously wounding Meyer Simons, a seven
teen-year -old clerk. who she said RE
f9isec to marry" her. The Lima girl
fired six shots at Simons in front of a
movie theater Saturday night, and be-
si1es shooting him in the back, brought
down q twelve-year-old boy who was
struck in the leg by stray bullet.
Many points IN the story told by the
hid have yet to be cleared up before
the police are ready to believe the
charges she nlde against Simon are
true.
If the story is not true. social workers
declare, it reveals terrible conditions in
the city which make It possible for a
child of her age to be so informed as to
be able to concoct a story of being
drugged, taken to hotel and wronged.
and then led to shoot down her assail-
ant because he refused to marry her.
Young Simons may recover He in
sists that he never saw the Lima 2 !
before she approached him and shot
him. His mothers declared he was at
home on the night the girl alleges
was taken to a Sixth avenue hotel.
The girl has not been able to give the
name of the hotel, and today will be
asked to point out the place.

PLANNING REFORMS
IN POSTAL SAVINGS
Department Officials and House
Committees to Endeavor to
Put System on Paying Basis.

The Postoffice Department and the
| House Committee on Postoffices and
Postroads are Jointly considering the
bnotty problem of how to put the postal
| savings bank system on a paying basis.
1t is expected important reforms will
grow out of the conferences.
The postal savings bank system has
not been the success which it migs; he,
contrary to the impression Of a great
many people. The service has cost the
country s1.4S6,O coo. Against this the Low
eminent has received in interest from
banks chosen as postal savings deposi-
tsries the sum of 1851, $50. In other
words. the Government has sustained
net loss of neariy $sl .001.0
Reasons for this situation are not hard
to find. though it will not be entirely
easy to make the system profitable TO
the Government. In the first place. the
limit of $500 on the amount any individ-
ual may deposit is considered by experts
as too low. The tendency Is steadily to
larger and larger deposits. In 1917 the
average deposit was $50. II has now
r.sen to s102. and Is steadily going up.
In fact. accounts are often turned away
because of the $500 limit. Postmaster
General Burleson, in his first annual
report. is expected to recommend the
limit be removed altogether.
Interest Is Too Low.
Another reason why the Government
loses money is. according to postal ex-
Dc rts. that it ought to collect higher
rate OF interest from the banks where
it deposits postal savings funds. The
present rate is II per cent. The Post
master General thinks banks that ordi-
narily pay 3 to per cent On deposits
could well afford to pay the Government
5 per cent. The Postoffice Department
is considering raising the rate to per
cent.
It is calculated by the Postoffice De-
partment and some OF the House COM !
rlittee that removing the limit as to |
the amount OF money person can de- |
posit would double the deposits In the |
postal savings system with no increase |
OF cost of administration. Moreover, III |
3 half of per cent additional interest /
We're obtained it would either wipe out |
the deficit or go far in that direction.
Much Accomplished. i
The postal savings system, though |
not the success IT might be made, OF |
the success it doubtless will be made,
has yet accomplished much. The sys-
tenn is two years old. Experts here say
these results are apparent:
Postal banks have not drawn money
from local banks to any considerable
extent
The most use of the system is in |
cities and communities having a large
Ioreign-born population. Rural com
90 not use it much.
The postal savings are chiefly, money
mat formerly Was hidden and boarded
Little of the money deposited has been /
sent to foreign countries.
The per cent bonds offered to postal
bank depositors have not proven q

taken into the stomach cannot reach.
They cure by inhalation. Pleasantly
aromatic, positively curative. An al

once and reach the seat of the disease
directly. They perfume the breath and
soothe the nerves. Everybody smokes
