Buying Christmas Presents

In the December American Maga-
zine George Fitch, the Illinois "funny
man." writes an amusing piece entitled
christmas At Homeburg." Following
is an extract:
"There aren't enough people in
Homeburg to make Christmas jam,
but we have our own line of troubles.
The question in Homeburg is not how
to keep from spending so much money
but'how to spend what we have. The
storekeepers don't pamper us. In fact
they are severe with us. If we don't
buy what they offer the first year,
they store it up and we have to take
it the next Christmas. When the
Homeburg storekeepers have had bad
season, it's up to us to go back the
next year and face the same old line
of junk, knowing it will be there until
we give in and buy it. There are two

The Service IcOnOclasts

New York Tribune: For the sake
of robust sommon sense we should
welcome now and then the advent of
an iconoclast. The human propen-
sity to idealize the figures of bygone
generations with wide splashes of men

our Judgment of the present. The late
Senator Lyman Trumbull's testimony
that Lincoln was among the most am
bilious of officeseekers helps us, for
instance, to treat more charitably our
own public men. 1t turns the profess
sional politician into a figure of dig
nifty and potential grandeur.

New Cure for Drink

In the December American Maya
zine Henry Detmers writes little
article entitled "A New Cure for
Drink" Mr.. Detmers says that he
has been in the saloon business for
twenty years. He is not drinker
himself and none Of his sons drink.
Out of his experience he recommends
the following cure for the liquor habit:
81 found early in my experience
that as general rule-there are ex-
ceptions of course-a regular GUS
toner of fruit was not very good
customer in my business. On the
other hand typical booze fighter
seldom touches fruit. l always kept
some apples behind the bar for my
own use, and l often experimentally
offered one to star customer who
almost invariably refused. The more
l looked into this matter, the more
firmly l became convinced that these
two habits clash. Not caring to have
my boys acquire the one l inoculated
them with the other, and have
found that the fruit habit early ac-
quired acts as a perfect antidote to
the liquor habit.
81 mention apples especially be-
cause they are something like bread,
one never tires of them, which is
more than can be said of peaches,
pears and oranges. And apples,
thanks to cold storage, can be had
every day of the school year.
"Why shouldn't the apple habit be
cultivated in the public schools at
public expense? School trustees
could advertise for bids to supply the
school, Then by means Of push
the-button contrivance placed at the
boys and girls exits each child could
get his apple as he marched out to
play at recess time. Two apples a
day would do the work. Children
have veritable craving for fruit. I

have often heard our victims beg an
other for the CORE And if it hap
pens that I have merely imagined that
the fruit habit offsets the drink hab-
it, know that two apples day will
have a valued influence ON the health,
good temper and morals of any child.
"Nease understand l have no AK
to grind, I do not own single apple
tree.
81 have never claimed to have dis
covered that fruit juices act as a
liquor antidote, although l have talk
ed it for twenty-five years.
"Some three years ago an article
appeared which claimed a Nebraska
physician as the discoverer of the
theory. The good doctor and I will
never quarrel over it. He can have
the glory. l do not need it. I am
only too glad to see that my views
have gained some scientific backing.
"If you remove the desire for drink
the liquor question will solve itself
and while poverty may not be ban
ished the general welfare of the peo-
pie will be much improved and even
if my scheme is never adopted l will
feel thousand times repaid for my
pains if can only convince the moth
ers of our country, those who have
the means to do so, that to implant
the fruit habit in their children is the
best assurance for temperate life"

Currency Bill Up
To the Conference

Washington, Dec. 20--Representa-
tive Glass told the house today that
the conferes ON the currency bill,
which passed the senate last night,
54 to 81, can not possibly agree be-
fore Monday. This eliminated the last
possible chance for getting the bill
with the senate amendment through
the house today. 1t still is thought 1t
| can be finished in time to have it in
the presidents hands for signature
before Monday night. Several differ
ences have already been agreed to.
1t is said at the house so soon as the
bill is reported by the conferes ma
jority of the senate amendments prob
ably will be passed without roll call
President Wilson will sign it the mom-
ent the bill reaches him. Simultane-
ously it is expected he will issue a
statement pointing out the strongest
features.
The house refused today to accept
the currency bill as amended by the
senate on a vote of 294 to SO. This
means the matter must be threshed out
in conference.
In turning the bill over to the con-
ference the house instructed them to
accept the senate provisions relating
to rediscounting, six months paper and
five year farm loans by national
banks. The house named three con-
feres, Glass, Kerbley and Hayes, the
senate chose nine, Owen, Reed, O'Gor-
man, Pomeren, Hollis, Nelson, Bris-
tow and Crawford.
Washington, Dec. 20-The admins
tration currency bill, proposing re-
vision of the financial system of the
United States and creation of regional
reserve bank to act as strengthening
elements in the banking and financial
world, passed the senate last night by
vote of 81 to 81.
Forces that fought together for the
improvement of the bill, and amend
ment to the measure, We're divided at
the final vote. Hitchcock, who led
the opposition bill, returned to the
Democratic ranks. Weeks, one of the
leaders on the Republican side, with
five other Republicans, and Poin-
dexter, Progressive, voted for the
bills passage.
There are wide differences between
the senate bill and that passed by the
house several months ago. Demo-
cratic leaders partly adjusted these
differences, however, and predicted
that the bill will be completed by a
conference committee and sent to
President Wilson for his signature
Monday.
Among the chief points of differ
ence between the house and senate
bills is: the house provided for IL
regional banks and the senate "8 to
/ 12," at the discretion of the federal

discount commercial paper at re-
gional banks to that maturing in 90
days; the senate provided that 1S0
day agricultural paper be accepted
under certain conditions; the house
placed the gold reserve required in
regional reserve banks against circu-
lation notes 33 1-3 per cent; the SEN
ate 40; that banks be permitted to
loan on five-year farm mortgage, the
senate bill; the house, one year.
LaFollette secured an amendment
providing that no member of congress
be member ON the reserve board or
director in general reserve bank,
officer, director or member of bank.

According to the police, Zahrtuk

the evidences of fraud and forgery
