Cant you give us the moral first
then we won't have to be 'dreading it?'
asked the Judge.
Yes, I'm willing to do that. The
moral is: Beware of selfishness, lest
you be hoist with your own lyddite
shell. 1t all happened up at my town
last fall. There's widow living there
who has three daughters, very esti
mable young ladies, but, alas, the two
older are exceedingly selfish. They
are both somewhat farther along in
life than the average unmarried WON
an don't know how old they are
hope I'm too much Of gentleman to
know anything about lady's age
but just for the sake of the story we'll
call one of them slightly over thirty
and the other Slightly under. The
third daughter I'm willing to come out
boldly and call twenty on safer
ground when we get down in that
neighborhood, you know. And, better
yet, this girl is one Of the most un-
selfish creatures IN the world. She is,
in fact, most charming airl in every
way, with pretty face and quiet,
unassuming manner which never fails
to win with its staple charm. If she
has any failing it is that OF too great
humility ana an inclination to allow
herself to be imposed upon. There IS
l believe, a sort of unwritten law
among women that daughters must
marry in rotation according to age.
Dorothy was very closely looked
after by her mother and older Sis
ters, and little OPT orlunity was ever
given her even remotely 10 contem-
plate the idea of marriage 1t was
not until last fall that anything in the
guise of a man was allowed to APP
proach within hailing distance. Then
she was given the privilege of re-
ceiving some circumspect calls form a
neighboring young man named Harry
Lambert.
"You must not gather that the older
girls had no attention-far from it.
Mr.. Edward Edgewater has been regu.
larly paying court to Elizabeth the
Oldest, for number OF years. Mr..
William Jackson has been doing the
same by Ruth, the second daughter.
so during the fall things ran ON as

men finding happiness in the company
of the lady of his choice every Sunday
evening. But with the approach OF

FORTUNE FOR PARDON

Albany, n. Y, Dec. 24.-FOrmer
Senator Towne, attorney for d. S.
Tolman, notorious loan shark, who
maintained offices in score of cities
over the country, called on Governor
Glynn today to urge that Tolman be
pardoned. Towne was accompanied
by Mrs, Tolman, her son, e. E. Toll
man. and four women managers of
New York state offices for Tolman.
In making the appeal, Towne pre-
sented papers which we're said to
represent 100000 in loans made
by Tolman's firm. II the pardon was
drafted, Towne offered to burn these
papers in the fireplace of the execu-
tive chamber. Glynn refused to per-
NIT this, saying the application must
follow the regular course. Tolman
was sentenced to six months impris-
onment last October.

Gentlemen:-
If you could see and appreciate the tremendous i'm
provements that have been made in AMERICAN Fence
during the past years, would not think of
plying your customers with any other brand of woven
wire fence.
We have always used the best quality of both
terial and workmanship and fences have always
stood the top but constantly strive for better
things.
These improvements REAL betterments of
QUALITY adding materially to strength and long life,
and not pretense for advertising campaign
GALvANIZING is the one thing that really gives
durability and lasting qualities wire fencing. We
have discovered how to vastly increase the amount of
zinc (spelter) applied the wire, and doing it,
To install this better gavanizing equipment in all of
our mills has taken years of experimenting and costs
vast sums of money, but it has been worth while
Not until now when the improvements have been
were we willing to tell you about 1t. We know that
greatly increase the demand for them Already farmers
are voluntarily telling us that they notice the increased
excellence of fences Only in fences manufactured
by us you this REALLY better quality
The improvements cost you nothing we reap
benefit from the increased sales. We strive to merit
greater share of your patronage.
Yours truly

Washington, Dec. 20.-Congress-
man Glass told the house today that
the conferees on the currency bill,
passed in the senate last night by a
vote of "a to "a, could not possibly
agree before Monday. This elimin-
ated the last chance of getting the
bill, with its senate amendments,
through the house today 1t was
still thought, however, that It could
be passed in time to have 1t in the
presidents hands for signature by
Monday night.
Even before the bills passage in
the senate, the democratic leaders
had adjusted some of the differences
between he two houses and today
the conference committee work was
being rushed as rapidly as could be
managed.
In the house, as soon as the bill is
reported by the conferees, It was be-
lieved, a majority of the senate
amendments probably would be pass
ed without roll calls.
President Ready TO Sign
President Wilson was expected to
sign the bill as soon as 1t reaches
him. He was known to be delighted
with the senate draft and It was
said to be likely that, in signing IL.
he would issue statement pointing
out its strong points,
This currency BILL" said Senator
owen, its sponsor, is the most inn
portant piece Of legislation since the
war. It provides a plan for concen-
trating the reserves of $4,000 banks
into the greatest banking association
In the world. 1t provides for mobil
lzation OF these reserves and for
keeping them livid and quickly avail
able in the form OF cash
Elastic Currency Provided
"It provides for the issuance OF an
elastic currency through federal re-
serve notes which may be put out on
the security OF commercial bills OF
short maturity.
"It establishes an open discount
market, which America has never had
beiore---a market wherein CONNER.

Aid for the Producer
1T extends strong helping hand
to the country's farmers and pro-
ducers and will be invaluable TO busi-
ness men as well as to bankers them
selves.
THE system is under the supervis-
ory control of the government
through federal reserve board, with
full power to fix interest rates, to
control the elastic currency Of fed
eral reserve notes, to examine banks
and to remove officers and directors
OF any federal reserve bank.
The system starts with $53,000,-

have more than $400,000,000 re-
serves and probably 100000, 900 in
government funds distributed among
eight to ten banks adjusted to serve
conveniently and sympathetically ev-
cry section OF the country"
Though in detail the bill, as a high
ly technical measure, perhaps has not
been very fully understood, Its i'm
portance was thoroughly appreciated
and the senate galleries were packed
when the final vote was reached last
night. There was an air of tense ex-
pectancy when the vote was begun;
one of boundless relief when 1t was
concluded. Then the galleries broke
into unchecked applause.
The ballot was attended by some
surprises. Senator Hitchcock, demo-
crat, who led a hard fight to have
the bill radically amended, and was
practically read out of the party by
Senator Owen for doing so, returned
to his own party ranks at the end
and gave the measure his vote.
Democratic senators who voted for
the bill were: Ashurst, Bacon, Bank
head, Bryan, Chamberlain, Chiffon
Clarke, Fletcher, Gore, Hitchcock,
Hollis, Hughes, james, Johnson

tine, Myers, Newlands, O'Gorman,

Six Republicans with Majority
Republicans who voted with them
were: Crawford, Jones, Perkins, Nor

also voted with the majority.

CURRENCY BILL.
Continued from page l.)

ed time, awaiting action by the SEN
ate on the currency bill.
After the announcement of last
nights vote, joint resolution pro-
posed by Majority Leader Under
wood that the house recess upon ad-
journment today until January IL
was adopted.
The engrossed bill was expected 10
reach the White House not later than
4 o'clock. Democratic leaders plan
ned to make the signing of the mea-
sure ceremonius affair and
scores OF the bills supporters ar
ranged to witness the affair.
IL was announced at the White
House that President Wilson will
sign the bill at six o'clock sharp. He
has prepared a memorandum, outlin-
ing just what he expected the bill to
accomplish.
Senator Poindexter of Washington
also supported the bill. AS soon as
the bill had passed, Senator John
Sharp Williams introduced a bill
which provided for the guarantee OF
bank deposits. The senate then
went into executive session to con-
firm nominations.
1t was announced that President
Wilson will use two pens in signing
the bill. One will be given to Sena-
tor owen and the other to Congress
man Glass.
The engrossed bill reached the
house at 2:47 p. m. and was at once
signed by Speaker Champ Clark.
Washington, Dec. 20.-The cur
rency bill came back to the house to-
day. AS passed by the senate last
evening 1t was anything but the same
bill that the house sent to the upper
chamber some time ago. The senate
had amended 1t considerably.
Some congressman were In favor OF
accepting 1t bodily, but not major
ity. Some even of those who liked
II in the main, thought few altera-
tions ought to be made In II.
Consequently 1t was sent to con-
ference. In the meantime the senate
had adjourned, precluding ratiflca-
tlon of the measure, no matter how
rapidly the conferees might work, be-
fore Monday. 1t was hoped, however,
to have 1t In the presidents hands
for signature by Monday night.
In turning the bill over to the con-
ferees, the house instructed its rep
resentatives to accept the senate pro-
visions relating to the re-discounting
OF six months paper and to FIVE years
farm loans by national banks.
A motion by Congressman Mann
republican floor leader, to accept tn
Hitchcock amendment instead of tn
owen bill was voted down 211 to 81
The house named only three con
ferees: Congressman Glass, Korbl.
and Hayes. The senate chose nine
Senators Owen, Reed. O'Gorman

Bristow and Crawford.

Forest Fires

JUST why there is not better law
regulation in regard to forests is hard
to state. The fact remains that for
ests take a generation to grow and are
destroyed in a day. and no one prose-
cutcd. Nevada can i'll afford to lose
any Of her watershed. In this sec
ton Uncle Sam depends on water for
reclamation schemes, as the water is
appropriated for the projects under
building. it would seem that the first
move that the Government should
take would be to protect the water
she'd where the supply must come
from.
1t is hoped that the day is not dis
tant when the Government will take
over all the second growth forest. pa
troll il and then send the fire builder
to prison. II is a criminal and ire
parable waste that takes place annu-
ally, and many a mountain side shows
the effect Of this rotten carelessness.
