OTHER VIEW POINTS

Try and work out the stock market problem in your own mind. For in stance, tax excessively legitimate co l- cerns and let bucketshop swindIers escape with a fine. But possibly the government looks on the fines as a system of taxation.-Middletown Press. The general assembly displays q moral terpitude in this matter tnile- age) that is astonishing We will bet collars to doughnuts that Governor Baldwin vetoes this bill. He ought to. and it should be allowed to sink into that obscuriry from which it never should have been lifted.-New Havs1 Union.
 It was hardly necessary for MT. Taft to deny the rumor connecting him with the presidency of Johns Hopkins He would not despise such an honor. but even if it were offered to him. his inclinations toward Yale would over weigh it. He has contracted to come to New Haven, and he keeps his cor tracts.-New Haven Register. The term reacttonary Is usually mis- applied. but there are such persons accurately described by that Wor l. Only reactionary could introduce such bill as that now pending in the legislature, which. if it becomes a law will compel parents to pay $10 annu~ ally for tuition in a high school an institution supported by the whole body of axpayers.-Bristol Press. With the increase in number of mo- tor vehicles and the use by them not only of the main arteries of travel, but also of the side streets, the problem is erising as to whether or not in every street that is opened permanent pave n1ent, preferably of wood. should not be installed. At all events the city should do it's utmost to increase per- n1anent pavements as rapidly as pos Sible.-Brid geport Standard.
 The Connecticut legislature isn't afraid of criticism. Both branches passed a bill compelling the railroads to carry the statesmen free of charge. This was tried in Rhode Island, but public sentiment was so strongly against the petty graft that 1t was rot included in the public utilities bi,l The Connecticut legislature. after this shameless exhibition, is hardly in po- sition to criticize the railroads for sins Of omission.-Provfdenc Bulletin.

Again the Problem.

MT. Editor: In regard to the prob lem, If an article cost $1. what must il be sold for to gain a profit of 10 per cent, allowing 22 per cent for doing business, it seems to me that neither of the solutions I have seen are cor rect. Both parties start at the wrong end to solve the problem. In my day percentage was always reckoned on the purchase and not the selling price, If an article costs s1 and is sold for $1.47, the seller gains AT per cent, an this statement proves, for if I sell a horse for $147 and thereby gain 47 per cent. for every dollar invested, I re- ceive $147, consequently $147 divided by s1.47 gives s1OO. the cost of the horse I claim that if an article costs $1 and is sold for $1.32 the seller re- cefves 32 per cent. more than the cost price.

In the hours of praisins and of revil- ina alike the SaViour's spirit was un- ruffed He was not unduly exalted on the one Shand nor unduly depressed on the other The calm strength of his purpose carried him to the goal as the engine drives the ship through fair weather and through foul. He was lift ed above dependence on human praise or blame.
