chamberIain and His MonooIea

While the late Joseph Chamberlain
was crossing Palace yard one day
some years ago he was accosted by an
American girl with the cool request,
mir. Chamberlain. please do give me
your eyeglass for my cabinet at home"
1t was at once handed to her, guard
and all. SO promptly that the curlo
hunter apparently felt some remorse
and stammered. "Most likely I'm in
conyenlencing you" Not at ALL" re-
piled Mr.. Chamberlain as he produced
from his pocket morocco case and
took from II spare monocle, which
he screwed I'm position, and then went
on his way, smiling. London Express.

Beef In Boston In 174o.

A writer in the Yale Review. who
notes that I'm 1740 beef could be bought
in Boston at - cents pound. seems
TO imply that that price was all II was
worth. Invariably steak for dinner
was heraldcd by the vigorous pounding
with the potato masher welded by the
stalwart arm OF the cook" The meat,
I'm fact often came, he tells us, from
the carcass OF IA COW that no longer
gave milk or a bull that had lost Is
bloom"

Virtue Of Peanuts.

The oil OF the peanut has a quietlng
effect on the pneumogastric nerve, the
largest nerve supplying the stomach.
Many nervous persons who like pea
nuts and do not know why, like them
for this reason. They quiet the nerves
OF the stomach. These persons should
eat a few fresh roasted peanuts after
each hearty meal. as many nervous
conditions are due 20 an irritation OF
the pneumogastric nerve, and the pea.
nut oil acts as a sedative TO this nerve.
OF course the nuts must be crisp and
well chewed and not too many taken.
To get the best sedatlve effect a hand
full OF the hot peanuts should be eaten
just before retiring. This presup-
poses that the powers OF elimination
are IN good repair The peanut a
member Of the pulse family, is nutri-
tious and would clog the system II
not eaten correctly, as it Is almost
equal TO meat-Philadclph ledger.

The Democrats and Economy.

The mayor of New York has come to realiza-
ton quicker than the Congress of the United States
that affects not only the greatest city but the
smallest hamlet and the entire country. He has in
formed the departments under him of this view, and
the tax budget requirement for 1915 has been cut
$3,5ooooo under the present year.
"The city," says he, may be called upon to assist
many brought distress by the unsettled conditions
resulting from the European war"
In Washington, however there is no attempt to
check the extravaganza of Congress- and the record
of appropriations to establish a new high-water
mark which forever will wrest the issue of economy
from Democratic campaigns Even before rumors Of
European impression had gone forth that
additional means would have to be provided to in
crease the revenue of the country Now that the
is a fact, there may be an attempt to use it as a
Democratic asset, but it remains that had anything
like the economy which the Democrats promised been
enforced it would not be necessary to make up the
decrease of duties caused by the cessation of
trade.
dollar wastefuly spent at the Capitol is dollar
which must be made up by taxes placed upon people
already overburdened by higher prices in every direc
ton. There may be some justification for the belief
that the rise in prices in part due to conspracies
but sight be lost of the fact that rise in
prices is the inevitable result of war. The United
States is suffering from what has not infrequently
occurred Prices have been higher in neutral coun-
tries than those at war.
The jailng of few conspirators within few
months or a few years is not going to relieve the
situation.
Congress has it in its power to save Ss3yoooooo by
defeating the pendngs rivers and harbors bill While
the President and his advisers in daily conference
taxation methods they must decide to shelve
the rivers and harbors bill or abandon every SEM
blance of going about their revenue raising in
manner to win any commendation whatever.
If there had been of desire to redeem CAM
paign pledges of economy, the present tariff, the in
come tax, and internal revenue might have fortified
the Treasury against conditions it is forced to
meet.

The Colonel Needs More Rest.

Col Roosevelt is again defying his doctor His
throat may be better but that he is still in need of
rest is apparent from his speeches The doctors say
when one reaches the conclusion that all the world
is queer except thee and me, and sometimes think
thee trihe peculiar" it is time to shut down the
dynamos, stop the engines and take long rest. 1t
is a sign that mans nerves are of their trolley,
that the storage battery of keller and that it Is
time for change of scenes, food, and habits.
The whole country viii regret to learn that the two
months Oyster Bay, with its nvigorating climate
and the manly exercise of chopping wood, has not
fully restored the Colonel to vigorous health and
moved all signs of nervousness and it is quite appar
ent that the rest period has not been long enough if
the doctors are right about it.
The Colonel still finds all the world queer except
himself and Victor Murdock, and he is not always
sure about Victot He hasn't good word for Boss
Flynn, Gov. johnson, Heney, Garfield, any of the
old squad of faithful The wires are all crossed or
grounded, and all the world is queer except the
Colonel He needs change, to forget the present. to
get out of the beaten track again, and forget that
there Progressive party. He should revive
the old tennis cabinet and try his hand at the net
again. That way lies health and happiness and long
life say the doctors The Colonel returned to his
political activity in the dog days; he doesn't need
doctors opinion to know that it is the dangerous
season for mental activity.

Social justice is beginning to hum in
California. At the election this fall. the
voters will have the opportunity OF say

violating its provisions Is q fine Of not
less than so nor more than $500. or i'm

ten to ninety days, or both fine and i'm
prisonment Overtime work is absolutely
prohibited. even for farming and fruit
gathering That this Limitation would
work hardship all around Is evident when
the difficulty OF obtaining harvest labor
is recalled. AS is being pointed out. mucn
at such seasons depends upon mutual ac-
commodation. one farmer waiting upon
another and making up fordelays by over
time. II the proposed bill becomes a law,
no one may earn anything by working
for another more than eight hours. The
ordinary family would feel its effect In
the limitation 1t imposes upon domestic
service. It Is difiicult TO believe that CAL

drastic form. although the indications
are said to be in its favor-New York

Reclamation.

The Characterization "reactonary" has been much
overworked politically. BY many it is taken to mean
any movement which is not radically progress
i've. Many conservatives are called reactionaries
simply because occasionally their conservative tend
ences mislead them into the proposal or support of
a reactonary movement. In some cases this tend
ency frequently misleads that the victim may
fairly be characterized as a reactionary.
Politically speaking, reaction is backward tend
ency from progress. Where conservative will be
content not to progress further along given line
reactionary will desire to go in the other direction,
undoing what has been accomplished.
There has not for some time been more striking
illustration of real reaction than in the amend
ment to the reclamation BILL nailed on in the House
without fair consideration and while friends of con-
servaton apparently were asleep This amendment
takes from the jurisdiction of the Secretary of the
Interior the fund for the retaining of arid land
and places it at the mercy of members of the House
and Senate, with their varied interests small knowl-
edge and political fortunes all at hand to aid in the
misdirection of funds taken from farmers in pay
ment for previously completed irrigation projects.
In other words, the reclamation fund from now on
will be fair pork for the political spoler taking its
place alongside the rivers and harbors and public
buildings bill each Congress This is reaction raised
TO the ninth power.

Says the Commoner, William J. Bryan editor and
proprietor: "The Old World and the New present
striking contrast just now. The spirit aroused
in the East and Europe is armed camp; nearly
all the countries of the New World are, at the same
time entering into peace treaties which provide for
years investigation before war can be declared"
While it is true we didn't declare war Mexico,
would we have waited year before shellng the
naval academy at Vera Cruz if one of those peace
treaties had been IN operahorl
