she was from Pueblo, Colo, and
was going to Newport, where
her son, Major Morris, lived.
She was bordering on temporary

A CONTINUOUS coNcREss.

When the extra session of congress was called 1t was thought that the 1arir. taking precedence of everything else. would be out of the way in a Few weeks and an early adjournment was looked for, but today nc enc has the courage to predict an adjournment A letter from a competent authority sn Washington says
 Tt looks as though congress would be in session until September on the farfff, and If it is then compelled to take mp the currency question it will rY7dorbted1y run this extra session right into the regular session in De- cember. which win be the long session, and that will probably carry us on into the next summer.
 Congress Is getting to be "a centin- uous performance and if a congressman attends to his duty he has very little chance to keep acquainted with his constituents"
 STe congress is to be continued fin sfssion a winter and summer capital ts necessary and perhaps we might get it located somewhere along the breezy north shores of Long Island sound If seems almost criminal to require public servants to serve us in the atmosphere of Washington during dog days" Heaven on earth is what we should be striving for.

The man who succeeds MT Mellen As president of the New Haven road came from the bottom up. and that Howard Elliot has been a man among men fS an excellent guaranty that he win deal justly with his employees and win inc public He states his position cieRriy when he says:

WOMEN AS POLICEMEN.

Those who are familiar with police work have for many years recognized that woman had her place in police work and the police matron has been on duty in all the larger cities for many years. and she has proven that her recognition and employment was no mistake. It is only of recent years that women as policemen have been given street service and special detec- tive work, but New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, Denver, Omaha and Los Angeles have them to detect female criminals on the streets and to keep order wherever. children in large num- bers play or the sexes intermingle for entertainment and amusement. In some work woman is quicker to detect Irregularities and disorderly conduct The Omaha Bee is quite right when 1t says:
 'sWoman's sense of the proprieties tends to give an advantage and then, too. her intuition and power to com mand respect increases her effective ness for such work. But, of course, the women for police service must be selected with utmost discrimination, for upon their demeanor and discretion, after all, rests their measure of sue cess"
 Of course, the same sane discrim- ination applies to the selection of men for police service, but it is Woefully neglected as a general rule.

1913 AS A CROP YEAR.

While the government reports of the leading crops have a hopeful and as- surfing sound. the east owns up to having been hit hard by the drouth which one old farmer says beat the drouth of '64 when there was so little water in the streams that the fish wiggled with their tails out of water to keep their heads under" One tells us his green peas cost him three dol lars a bushel to raise and he got $1.50 a bushel for them; and another sold his extra early potatoes for S0 cents a peck which cost him over Sl.25 a peck to grow. Since peas and string beans have sold for from 30 to 80 cents a peck the middleman has not suf- fered from drouth. In this immediate vicinity the hay crop has been good above the average we are told; but spondent writes of one meadow which had yielded 4 tons of hay a year for 100 years that cut but 5000 lbs. this year; and of a hay grower who usually harvests 125 loads who had to be satisfied with 30 loads. It looks as though hay in New England might be dear next winter. It is surprising that with freezing weather as late as June 10th the fruit crop in abundance seems to be assured.

EVERY DAY REFLECTIONS
The Best Room.

When I was boy, in Illinois every house had it's best room" It was where company sat, ladies who came to call dressed up in their best Sunday clothes. and the preacher when he made his regular visit and prayed with the family, and the law yer when he came to get mother to sign papers, and the book agent who sold us Mother, Home and Heaven"
 The room was the pride and glory of the house, and nearly useless
 The explanation of the best room is this: It is an expression of the desire that the world should know us, not as what we are. but as what we are sup posed to be-
 The whole struggle for 'respectab- ility'' may be summed up as an in- stinctive effort to conceal our real selves.
 Most of what is known as society is but rattle and mixture of respect ability, 8 parade of masks, a game in which by a mutual understanding each plays part.
 To be genuine, frank and real is to be coarse, i'll bred ,or crude.
 The best room" idea pervades us. What is the religion of most of us but a best room" affair, to be used upon occasions and not for the daily warmth of living?
 With how many of your acquaint- ances have you ever got farther than their best room ?"' With how few men or women do you talk with whom you feel that you are entering freely into the sitting room, dining room and kitchen of their minds?
 In other words, we are acquainted with many and know very few.

rHE nauMMER NoE ronAY.

There has a great change come over the commercial travellers of the coun- try. and while the old drummers up of trade are not all dead. there Is a new brood in the field. which seem to. create a different kiR6 of sensation about the hotels.
 The modern salesmen have organized 1&0oe strong as the band of Gideon and 1T they are story tel1ers they are falling different stories than the old drummers did If they do not smoke any better cigars. they do not know how to play cards as well. but they know their Bfbies better. At a Gideon con xantlon just held at Toronto-an in teruafional conventional was stated they had placed 100000 Bibles on the tables of hotel lounging and smoking rorn which r7ay do much good. We do not know Bow much better these fsgFfnons are than the olden time drum mers who used to fraternize with and rnmrnetize tradesmen: but if they leave everyone feeling by their acts that they measure and can be measured by rhe Golden Rule. they certainly are clear out Of sight if the other good fellows we've known

-ETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
The RrowntaiI Moth Rash.

MT. Editor: Perhaps a word from a sojourner in New Hampshire will add emphasis to Mrs. Dodge's splendid let ter noted in a recent issue of The Bulletin
 Although a recent arrival in New Hampshire. am already a sufferer from ''browntaiI'' rash, and can feel ingly corrohorate her words about it's unpleasantness.
 If the public care so little about trees that they are unwilling to make efforts to save them, surely when it's a matter of personal suffering they will take immediate action.
 To nature lover thes destruction caused by various moths here is most distressing. Once beautiful forests and fruitful orchards are stripped of all foliage, many in dying condition. In driving one passes acres of trees so denuded.
 We haven't been as persistent in fighting the elm beetles as we should have been. Let us now contrary to the old saying, prove that everybody's business is our business and make every effort to rid our city of its latest pest.
