THE BUSINESS PHILOSOPHER
m the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
 Charles c. McChord of the interstate commerce commission said at dinner in Washington:
 Our commission hopes in the end to see business as straight as it used to be-as it used to be in our childhood
 There are certain types of modern business that remind me of the busi- ness philosopher who said:
 Every failure Is step toward sue cess That Is why I. a business man, grow richer every time I fail.'"

Pulling for Perry

T am glad that President Wilson will appoint Judge R. w. Walker of the appellate court to the federal cir cult court bench" said a member of the Barbour county colony last night, and l hope that the governor will appoint Perry Thomas to the vacancy which will be created on the bench of the appellate court when Judge Wal ker retires for his bigger work.
 There is no better lawyer in Ala bama than Judge Thomas. and no cleverer citizen. He was highly suc- cessful as an attorney in Clayton and Eufaula, and when he was appointed to the appellate court. his friends knew that he would make good. He did make good. If the governor appoints him to the vacancy to result from Judge Walkers promotion. he will continue to make good, because he is not only a nian of brain but of industry as well and the both do not always go to- gether unfortunately.
 "There can be no question but that Judge Pelham will be made chief jus tice of the court. This will be as 1t should be- The governor has done well in appointing finely equipped men to the appellate court. and the appel late court has given good account of itself.'

The Hardest Blow
Alabamian-Dispatch

From the Alabamian-D Dispatch.
 Worse and worse. Now comes the re- port that baseball is to be crippled by the advance of the price of the covering of haseballs. chiefly Russian horsehides. If the dead horses of the war are skinned and the skins preserved, there is more likelihood to be an oversupply and con sequent cheapness.

pr. Cunninghnm's Joke

From the Montgome' Times.
 Speaking of kissing, a Birmingham health officer says that it is dangerous to kiss person with a cold in the head. We do not doubt it. If anyone tries to kiss with a cold in the head we are going to make it dangerous for him. Looking at 1t in another light, a person with cold in the head does not feel like kissing or being kissed.'' re- marks the Gadsden Journal One is in such an ugly moode with a cold in the head, that it is more or less dangerous to attempt to kiss them.

Jealousy of Nation.

Tn last Sundays Age Herald" said Walker K. Jones of Wedowee, q read letter addressed to the editor of The Ase-Herald by Sir Gilbert Parker, the we'll known author. in which he en- deavore6 to correct what he termed misapprehension on the part of Ameri- cans as to the individual who caused the war.
 "of course Sir Gilbert did not se- lect The Age-Herald as the American medium through which to set forth hIs views and contentious. for whereas without question The Herald is the only metropolitan newspaper printed in Alabama, no one newspaper is large enough to cover the nation Parker, beyond all question, wrote to at least one newspaper in every large American city. This illustrates that which l am endeavoring to prove.
 "The nations are jealous. We all know how the Germans protested against certain publications when in the beginning 1t appeared as if the al- lies within a week would wipe the Kaiser off the face of the earth And now England is apparently fearful lest Americans get the idea that England and France are hard pressed, or that either of them Is to blame in that hos tilities exist, or are not brought to an end
 "The letter of Sir Gilbert was in ex- cellcnt tone. and incidentally, excellent English"
